. I kept it for myself till today withdrawal attempt. Proof proof. How im gonna proof that my last 15k or more bets was rigged? Could you tell me? its  not like on stake that i can see history of ALL my bets.
It might be the support text instead of the bet history. I don't think there's any valid way to provide proof that Bitsler actually rigged your games or you were just, well, extremely unlucky. If you were solely saying that Bitsler rigged your games with the only proof you have is saying you lost continuously, some may believe it but it wouldn't really be a proper accusation imo since there's no solid proof (unfortunately). Chances are most would just attribute it to, well, gambling being gambling, that there's always a chance for you to lose.
2142  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and MLM Schemes on: July 01, 2022, 11:38:25 AM
I don't think there's even a relation to each other? I mean you're entering MLM (even if it was a pyramid scheme and not an MLM tbf) expecting something in return since you kind of investing, whether it be in the form of physical goods or monetary cashback or whatever, gambling, on the other hand, you expecting something is you being dumb and well, not actually knowing what gambling really is.

MLM is kind of like a community where you're guaranteed a return back if it's actually legal, but gambling is a game, it's a form of entertainment. It's literally something that follows the logic of something like a coin toss, a random 50/50 chance.
2143  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will Bitcoin hit 100k or more in 2022? on: July 01, 2022, 07:24:00 AM
Highly doubt it. The bearish market would probably continue on till a few more months, and even after it, we aren't going to see a bull season since it's going to be a steady season instead, with straight movements and probably a really slow but gradual increase to the past ATH. At the very least, we wouldn't see a price above the ATH until the next halving, which is still in two years. If you asked it before the bear market a lot would probably answer yes or maybe, but with the current state of things and seeing that we're halfway into the year already, it's highly doubtful.
2144  Economy / Speculation / Re: Anyone bought Bitcoin/altcoins already? on: July 01, 2022, 01:11:14 AM
Just recently did, kind of outside my DCA cycle but whatever, I wanted to anyway. Wouldn't really mind if it went up or down, down simply means I have to go out of my DCA cycle and buy again (if it's a pretty big dip, if not then forget it), up means well, I'm going back to following my original cycle. It's always a go for me if someone would ask me if I want to buy Bitcoin, especially in seasons like this, not to mention that I DCA myself so no matter the price I'm always buying.
2145  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Self Exclusion on a National Basis, Australia 🦘 on: June 30, 2022, 12:06:40 PM
In the end Self-exclusion relies on the gambler themselves personally starting or initiating it though. It is probably an additional help since afaik, some casinos don't exactly offer a self-exclusion program so with this, it can help a lot for gamblers who are willing to undergo the program but originally had no option to do so.

I still stand by the idea that there should be a central organization for gambling casinos so that self-exclusion programs like this can be done not just in a country scale, but globally. That way, there's no loophole that users can use to bypass the self-exclusion they themselves set. Though this would most likely involve KYC so that they aren't able to create new accounts though.
2146  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Had you ever x10,000? on: June 30, 2022, 04:14:08 AM
Oh wow, that's insane. I don't think I've ever hit something higher than a 100x tbh. The number of tries shows how much it can actually take to even get one though. It's possible with a big enough bankroll and since there are bots it can easily be done if properly set up but I mostly do mine manually like a few games, then switch over to a new game and maybe return after a few minutes.

Seeing as you incremented your bet it seems like you profited instead? Congratulations!
2147  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is it possible to control Gambling behaviors? on: June 30, 2022, 12:28:11 AM
According to many studies and the opinions of experts in behavioral psychology, gambling-related behaviors can be controlled, whether to reduce addictive behaviors or avoid addiction for beginners;

In brief, You can deal well with your gambling problems by learning about it, addressing it, controlling what might drive you to gambling, and then getting support.

Is this possible according to your opinion and what are the tips that can be followed?
It can be controlled ofc. It's just a matter of how you want to do it. There's a forced option where you ask for assistance through someone else where they pretty much guard or check up on you most of the day to see if you're doing gambling, and if necessary, forcibly stop you (though this may lead to withdrawal symptoms imo).

There's also the slow transition to removing it in your life, just like how smokers can slowly get help and reduce if not completely remove smoking from their lives. Or they can even replace it with something more productive, e.g. a hobby such as sports, arts, studying, etc.
2148  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To build your Professionalism on casino on: June 29, 2022, 01:15:11 PM
It's pretty common sense imo, just that some gamblers tend to get tunnel-visioned by, well, money or the chances of winning it at least, which leads to them basically ignoring the majority, if not all of the common-sense rules a gambler needs to actually keep it in line. I also tend to draw a really strict line when it comes to gambling, especially if it tends to get out of hand, which hopefully does not happen most of the time. If it actually did, I might need some early help even if I wasn't addicted yet. I also ask my friends to help me sometimes to keep it in line since I myself know I can't stop it alone.
2149  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tips on how I controlled my Gambling addiction. on: June 29, 2022, 04:17:33 AM
The first problem was identifying that you had an addiction problem, which is really great imo! The next steps could pretty much deviate differently, it can either be to completely stop it like what OP did, or deviate and instead replace it with something else which is actually great for you such as finding a hobby. I didn't realize this till I was like 20something, doesn't even need to be a fix for gambling, just learning something in general about something you truly like to do or want to do is a really great experience.

Step 4 is a really good step to do imo, it's like stepping out of your comfort zone (though in this case, it's a toxic zone) and expanding the options or activities you can have/do.
2150  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: An alternative to gambling with money. on: June 29, 2022, 12:36:42 AM
Well, see the idea behind gambling being addicting isn't the game itself, nor the idea of "being able to use money" aspect, but rather the fact that if they win, they get money. REAL money they can use and pay for stuff outside.

I honestly would just say to a person getting addicted is to spend that money elsewhere instead and not for anything good like donations or whatnot, but rather to hobbies that they can enjoy. Let's say, buy Gundam models, maybe even gacha games since even though they spend money, the return they get is the enjoyment which limits the possibility of being addicted due to "money". Heck, it may even be a detriment at some point to spend money for them.
2151  Economy / Gambling / Re: Alternatives to 1xbit on: June 28, 2022, 12:24:53 PM
You don't exactly need to look that far, there are a few threads in here (or in Gambling Discussion) that has detailed lists about trustworthy casinos and their reputation. I myself personally use (or used rather) this one
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5262141.0
For my specific choices, I'd go for Stake, Roobet, or Rollbit. I've also tried Wolfbet in the past so that's also a go for me. For sportsbooks then Sportsbet and Stake. They're all pretty safe afaik, some issues have come up here and there but afaik the supports have responded to them quite well (I didn't personally experience any issue so I have no qualms really).
2152  Economy / Speculation / Re: How do we spot the crypto bottom? on: June 28, 2022, 06:29:19 AM
We simply don't. The best people can do is assume and honestly, most assumptions are simply that, assumptions or at most an educated guess. There's no guarantee whatsoever that said assumptions will actually become reality. If one had a way to actually predict it then I don't think trading would even exist, or they'd even bother sharing it since, well, that would just seem dumb now, wouldn't it? We have the current community now because a lot of people can speculate but can't exactly identify what will actually become reality.
2153  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Are we going to recover or continue to dump? on: June 27, 2022, 01:19:47 PM
It wouldn't recover anytime soon though imo. It'd probably go back to around $30-40 in a year, but it can only ever exceed the ATH on the next halving in 2 years. Before that, we'd probably only see a gradual steady increase instead of the usual pumps we've seen in the past year or two. There might be a bit of a few fluctuations but it wouldn't be too big. I wouldn't expect any recovery in the next few days or weeks, we might even see it dip down a bit more. Small spikes can be seen but it'd go back to a middle point at some point imo.
2154  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: As some people want bulls some people want bears, bitcoin like season on: June 27, 2022, 12:52:38 PM
Well, it's definitely understandable, A lot of people may think that the current state is a mess but considering the history of Bitcoin, big dumps like this are big opportunities for a lot of people to get a sizeable amount of Bitcoin. I myself would really want to buy more than what I have right now but the funds I can afford to lose only amount to this much.

It's kind of hilarious how we've seen the exact same cycle quite a few times already and yet people still keep on the FUD coming. That's just how it goes I guess, it's like the more people who enter into Bitcoin and accept crypto, more people also go against it and hate it.
2155  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Knowing projects before launch on: June 26, 2022, 10:56:33 PM
Most projects just promote it themselves, they don't use any particular site afaik. It's mostly done through social media such as twitter/fb, but most of the community gather in their discord servers where they talk about the project and the possibilities it has (which ofc, also contains a lot of shills and possibly paid people that want to influence the real investors). After a  few months of promotions, the above places should pretty much announce their ICO sales and where or what platform they'd actually use.
2156  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Among all which do you hold on: June 26, 2022, 12:51:33 PM
Trading if you want to risk more to earn more (and if you know more about trading itself). It's the riskier option, but also the option that could get you the greatest amount of profit in a short amount of time. Hodling on the other hand is more for people who don't really know much about trading or don't have the time to min manage their trades. It takes time, yes, but if you chose an asset that performs well over time, then profit should be pretty easy to come. It also reduces the stress and other mental/emotional stuff you get when trading so it's like a burden off your shoulders.
2157  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin FUD is for losers. BE A WINNER. Stay Cool- Be Positive =D on: June 25, 2022, 02:58:47 PM
Facts. Well, they always appear when Bitcoin is down and disappear when Bitcoin is up, the cycle is pretty obvious at this point and shouldn't even be bothered to be noticed anymore imo. It isn't even anything like saying that Bitcoin is a bad investment or anything, it's just a diss at some point for people losing money since it dipped down so bad.

In other words IGNORE any information that you do not like, disregard any information that interferes with your dream of becoming rich...

The above post is pure emotion and hope.
I wouldn't really consider it as such, it's more like the information that most people are asking lined up to basically being FUD which is well, if told to an avid Bitcoin investor, would naturally be ignored. It's just trusting the asset you invested on, just like how old investors trusted the development of the internet hence the investment to google,apple. etc.

2158  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: The cryptocurrency market is currently a hot spot for whales. on: June 25, 2022, 02:38:35 PM
That's just how it goes. Whales have more chances to actually trade and profit since they play it big and well, losing money is something natural to them. Even someone who owns a sizeable amount of assets would consider losing as something of the norm. Newbies get eaten simply because they're afraid or don't know the hows and whos, and heck losing is something natural here. The market is a zero-sum game after all.

Besides whales can't cause permanent manipulation, at most it'd last a day or maybe even a few hours at best, and it's not really unfair, that's just how it goes since they have that much of an asset and are capable of doing so. It's just up to each own's skills to actually understand what's happening and move based on it.
2159  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Going hard on these projects on: June 25, 2022, 02:01:46 PM
If you think those are good, I suggest DCA'ing them since your predictions are running for the 5-year time just so that you can avoid losing everything you've invested all at once or if you want to suddenly stop your investment midway. I honestly wouldn't go for such long-term predictions when it comes to altcoins but up to you. Those are pretty good altcoins considering the list of altcoins out there especially SOL and you can probably add BNB imo. You've split your investments into 5 already so that's good enough imo.

Goodluck to you OP.
2160  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: DCA £5 PER DAY - WHICH CRYPTO? on: June 25, 2022, 12:00:40 PM
Hi all,

I came across a video earlier saying if you had invested £5 per day in a certain crypto for 3 years between 2018 to 2021 you would have ended up with £1m at the top of the bull run in November last year.

I want to do this for the next 2 years and was at first going to go with Bitcoin however the profits will be a lot larger If I go with a riskier Altcoin, just not sure which one to go with.
Altcoins imo are better investments for the short term, not really something I'd recommend that you'd do DCA on. Bitcoin would be your best bet, especially if your goal was in a 2 year span since we'd be able to see the next halving in the next 2 years. Maybe extend it to 2 1/2 to better feel if the halving could bring up something or not. The profit you'd get wouldn't be as big if you took the risk in some altcoins, but it's more reliable compared to looking for altcoin investments. If you really want to profit more, do shorting on altcoins instead of DCA'ing on it.
