221  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How can we help beginners not to get addicted on: March 30, 2024, 02:21:17 PM
I think if gambling companies can help to giving beginners to understand gambling and addiction it will help and reduce the rate at which people get addicted o gambling, I mean good lesson for people to get understanding.  Or do gambling companies benefit from gamblers who are addicted, which the awareness of getting addicted can affect their business?.

Casino main target market are those beginners aside from whale because they frequently play carelessly and easily attracted to bonuses that’s why most of the casino has a lucrative rewards for all newly sign up account. Most of the casino has the responsible gambling terms but they don’t highlight it because most of their profit is from losing gamblers while being a responsible gambler means less gambling expenses for players that’s why they leave it to the players whether they will read it or not.

To help newbie getaway from addiction is to not encouraging them to gamble at all. All those advice and other limitations is useless for newbie that is already curious on gambling.

Being a responsible gambler is very hard to do especially if you are just new. Typically, experienced is always the best teacher on gambling to become responsible.

The added feature like swap is one of the good way to attract players.  Remember, convenience is one factor that makes a player stay.  Having swap in a gambling platform relieves players of the headache of moving funds to another platform just to exchange it for their desired cryptocurrency.  I am grateful to Metawin for implementing or integrating a swap service into their site since this saves me money and time.
You got the point.

I did not follow up that the MetaWin community did asked for swap feature or not but the MetaWin team did satisfy their users with swap feature.
If the community actually asked for swap feature, this product development shows that MetaWin team did listen to community and shown their real activities to bring more convenience to MetaWin users.

Surely Metawin will ask the built-in swap feature because most of the Metawin players are using web3 wallets to play. This is the reason why Metawin focuses on NFT and different altcoin rewards because their target are those users that is active on Altcoins and NFT.

Metawin is a great contender to Betfury in web3 market because they have insane rewards and solid giveaways mechanics that always in favor to the players just like the 10%-20% refund to the total amount of ticket purchased for the lottery that sent to the player balance. It’s like a free 20% on deposit while you still have a chance to win on a raffle that has a massive rewards.

Sobrang tagal na nga nyang merit source application hindi lang din naman kay crwth pero marami ding nag apply at still pending pa yung approval para sa kanila, may ilang newbie din nagagawa dito pero bigla nalang nawawala agad eh, halos ang nakikita ko na nga lang active is mga OG members na din ng community. Hoping sana mas maging active tayo dito para sa information na din para sa growth ng bawat isa.

Sobrang hirap kasi talaga magpa rank dito sa local natin kaya naiintindihan kung bakit nawawala din agad yung mga newbie since napakadaming restrictions ng account nila while sobrang hirap maka earn ng merit dahil ubos na din sMerit ng mga OG dito. May mga sMerit ako na accumulate sa global na pakonti konti ko binibigay dito sa local at sana ganun din gawin ng iba.

Ang difference ng merit source application ni @crwth compared sa iba ay badly needed na talaga ng board natin since wala na tayong merit source tapos konti mga sMerit ng mga member kaya puro stagnant mga rank dito. Sana ma approve agad ni @Theymos yung application para naman makausad na tayo kasi napagiiwanan na tayo ng ibang mga nationality lalo na sa signature campaign.

Thank you for bringing this up, maybe this time we can get confirmation with this and hopefully be accepted for the Merit Source for our board. Very helpful information that you have given. It's really surprising that the situation is like that now.

I just realized it recently when I created a topic then browse most of the topic that recently created. Most of the local members contributes genuinely and not the typical shit post but I notice we rarely received merits then I realized that most of the member on our board has no smerit or limited smerit to share that’s why merit distribution is low among members.

I already created a topic on our local board to make an awareness to your application. We Filipinos is naturally patient that makes merit distribution is commonly ignored and just keep doing our regular post without expecting merit. This is why our merit situation is not taken seriously by fellow members. Hoping that you will get your merit allocation soon. 🙏

225  Other / Meta / Re: Application For Merit Source [Philippines Local Board] on: March 29, 2024, 01:46:42 PM
@theymos sir, Please reconsider this merit application for our Pilipinas board because we really need it badly. We are very active in terms of organic discussion and sharing information on our local board yet we don’t get merit to help us grow our account.

Our board is slowly become less active now because many users wants to hang out to global board for a chance to get merit for constructive post. Most of the local board even local threads with less post activity than us have a merit source that gives them the opportunity to cycle merit among members. Please reconsider this application once again because we don’t have merit source right while most of our account increased activity without having opportunity to rank up because not everyone here is good enough to accumulate merit on global board.

Here’s the chart analysis prepared by @rikafip to support my request.


Post activity per local board during February 2024



Local board members per amount of posts during February 2024



Percentage of merited posts across local boards during February 2024

Naturally, Pilipinas local board has by far the lowest percentage of merited posts and I really think that they could use help fo the external merit sources, assuming that they have enough quality undermerited posts.

226  Local / Others (Pilipinas) / Movement para magka Merit source sa Local board natin. on: March 29, 2024, 01:33:59 PM
Tayo nalang yata ang local board na walang merit source but still active. I’m not sure kung bakit walang interesado mag apply sa atin kahit na sobrang active ng board natin. Itong application palang ni @crwth  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4588684.0 ang current application pero hanggang ngayon ay hindi pa dn approved.

Support natin ito mga kabayan para maging aktibo ulit ang board natin. May mga smerit pa dn ako na pwede ishare pero hindi ito sapat ling term. Napag iiwanan na tayo ng ibang local board dahil hindi tayo united pagdating sa merit cycle.

Let’s bump current merit application ni @crwth.
227  Other / Meta / Re: What do you think if Bitcointalk accepted videos? on: March 29, 2024, 12:44:05 PM
Sharing videos or uploading it DIY is always a best way to express interesting content that you see outside the forum. This is also very helpful on beginners & help board that is frequently asking for help and tutorials on different matters. Screenshot is good but having a screen record is more efficient to share easily what we are trying to express.

Although I really like the current version of the forum which is easy to load and refresh but having a feature to import or share video that you can watch here without the need to go on the source link is the best for me.

Yes for this if possible but make sure that video is not automatically played once browse just like on social media. 
228  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is the #1 rule you live by in sports betting? on: March 29, 2024, 12:39:35 PM
The #1 rules I always remember is only used the money I can afford. Without that, I will only loses much money and will makes me to playing gambling longer than usual. That means, I can loss more money and makes me sad or regret. I always trying to follows my rule and not trying to breaks it because that will makes me gets a bad experiences playing gambling. Besides that, I already have that bad experiences in the past so I don't wants to gets the same experience.

I can playing gambling without using much money or without too long because I only wants to enjoy my spare time. That's why I always trying to manages my limitations and not breaking it.

This is for general gambling answer and not specifically for sports betting because there’s no way to play for a long time on sports betting because each game has waiting time before the bets settled so unless you are just randomly placing bets on any live match available on sportsbook then it’s possible but most of the time no user doesn’t spend match time on placing bets because bettors usually analyze first outside the casino then just place bet once they already have the pick in mind.



My #1 rule on sports betting is don’t look on the odds figure but rather stay on my pick to avoid being tempted to pick a wrong decision just because the profit probability is much higher to my original pick. This happened to me a lot before but now I learned to stick to my prediction without the odds consideration.

Also only place bet on matches that I have enough data. Sometimes I place bet on different matches just to increase my odds that later on becomes the reason to destroy my original pick.
229  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2024 NBA Season on: March 27, 2024, 02:16:39 PM
By the way, Warriors beat the Heat and now they are one game above to the Rockets. So the Rockets here has to continue winning and home that the Warriors will continue to struggle.

They are racing to be in the play-in while the Lakers won even without Lebron.

Warriors and Rockets are not far from each other, so I would not be surprise if the Rockets will make it. Both teams will have a game tomorrow, back to back for the Warriors while the Rockets are fresh facing a team that played back to back which is the OKC. Not sure if the Rockets will win but if the trend will continue, the edge should  be on them.

Even if they passed OKC which I doubt, They will still face Mavs, Clips, Wolves and Warriors itself which is very hard to maintain their streak since they only get that winning streak from a weak teams. Their last match compared to the Warriors will give them a disadvantage assuming that all the strong teams that I mention will play the same.

All the teams are very eager to maintain their spot. I don’t believe on winning streak momentum if the spot to the playoffs is on the line.

I want Warriors to get the play-in spot because they have a chance to advance due to their experience unlike Rockets.

Ginagawa ko ito dati sa office namin para mabypass yung restrictions sa mga social media website at youtube. Hindi ko akalain na magagamit pa dn pala ito sa Binance. Napacheck tuloy ako kung ban na nga ang Binance at positibo na hindi na talaga maaccess ang Binance website gamit ang browser.

Working pa dn sakin ang Binance apps na sa tingin ko ay hindi pa affected ng ban since naka focus pa lng ang NTC sa mismong website. Magandang method ito dahil karaniwan ng mga free VPN ay US IP lan or mga country na ban ang Binance ang available while premium VPN lang ang may mga IP na available para maayos na makaconnect.

May natry na ba dto buksan yung Binance apps nila sa windows? Meron kasi akong apps sa computer ko sa office pero not sure kung gagana pa dn now.
231  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can we still truly achieve anonymous gambling in crypto? on: March 27, 2024, 01:25:14 PM
They can start their business as privacy featured casino but as time goes on they will change to a centralized way of operation, they will put the blame on the authorities, saying they no longer have no choice but to comply.


Before, this is really the casino marketing strategy to advertise their casino through privacy but this is not being used anymore by online casino since most of them already joining the casino with license thread just to gain trust of gamblers. Decentralized gambling is now just a the minority that almost no players interested on playing.

Quote
Get used to common centralized casinos already, do not wait for any privacy casino, it's never coming, and if you come across one, they already used you for marketing, sooner or later they will start asking you for KYC verification.

Yeah, What I don’t understand nowadays is why gamblers seek privacy in a casino with license while it’s the same idea on exchange with license that ask mandatory KYC. If they already submit KYC on exchange(since they already purchased crypto for gambling deposit) then why they are afraid for privacy. I understood the reason about the fear of data breach of casino but aside from that some user is seeking privacy like they are hiding something with their money.

Not all newbie is smart enough to figure out immediately how the forum works right after they sign up unless they are an alt account of old members or they have experienced already on engaging in a forum. I’m a member of different forum and this kind of newbie posting habits is always the starter opening post of someone new that wants to be welcomed in the forum.

We should be happy that there’s still new member joining here that wants to become part of our family. Let’s just make them a real “newbie” when they just started and grow while browsing the content of the forum. This thread is dedicated to anything that related to being newbie/beginner mixed with helpful thread.

Since you ran into a problem, you might have had a glitch in the KYC system that caused you to be mistakenly caught by the casino. Although I am glad to hear that you have solved this problem now, but you must read the pledges carefully before submitting the KYC so that you don't make a mistake. Although I think submission of KYC only due to user error is a problem, but if you had given your KYC properly then it wouldn't have been a problem. Since your error has been caught by the casino, and it has been resolved by now, it is good for you that you submit carefully when doing KYC at other casinos in the future. Since you have found the solution in this casino, right now you can undoubtedly play here, and you can continue.

There’s no such thing as mistakenly ask for KYC because they have a reference and standard process to detect user that needs to do KYC. All users can be asked to undergo KYC on random basis without any further explanation from the casino but most of the time it’s because of how we play in the casino.

KYC is for AML purposes so there’s no way a casino will ask for it due to an error only so there’s something on that user account that makes the casino suspicious to him. It seems he is innocent based on his own statement but we don’t what he really doing on his shuffle account that cause the KYC trigger on him.
234  Economy / Gambling / Re: ✨ Shuffle.com | The next generation of crypto casinos | Sports, Casino + token on: March 26, 2024, 02:27:11 PM

Although, it shouldn't truly matter, right? Because even if the probability was 50/50 for the user, the casino pays slightly less than 50/50 of the total winnings for the user. Plus there are fees that also go to the casino per dice throw, which if a user played more volume, it would definitely make the casino happier, then they could distribute the airdrop to their most loyal users, who would also be happy to be incentivized to play more volume.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

If it’s really a 50/50 chance then it means the dice game has no house edge and the payment should be exactly x2 of the bet. Most of the dice game has a default x2 payout for a 49.5% chance of winning percentage. It’s dishonesty if they will claim that the winning percentage is exactly 50% and the payout is x2 while they deduct a certain amount even if it’s minimal on the payout amount.

You are pertaining to the house edge for those minimal amount being deducted when you bet on a 50 % winning chance rate because they only offer payout of x2 minus the house edge they set for their games which on this example dice game.
235  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Dana thought he lost $80k one night and his advice for gamblers on: March 26, 2024, 02:16:57 PM

Just want to share.

https://youtu.be/k7aQEqDbuf8?t=4429
He was interviewed on Lex Fridman's channel just today. Funny how he thought it was just $80K but it's actually $3M. Rich men lose more when they get drunk playing blackjack.

He advises about winning and losing in gambling and if you get depressed because of it, gambling is not for you. He meant winning and losing are part of the game where great things and bad things happen.


Dana White is a god of Blackjack because he used to be frequently winning and get restricted to play on some casino just because he keeps winning. I’m surprised that he made a mistake like this such as drinking alcohol during gambling while he a discipline gambler. This only proves that no one can be successful on gambling in the presence of an alcohol or simply clouded mind even a guy like Dana that is so good on this game.

What’s interesting on his interview is he is not that much affected and he is showing a sign that he will keep coming back to recover his loses but this time he already leaned his lesson for not drinking.

I’m curious on the next chapter of his gambling career because people that already experienced bad defeat after a good gambling career usually end up chasing loss badly.

do you have a recommendation a game for happy fun to play it?
Try this ..maybe you will get lucky (a couple of months ago one guy won a crazy amount).  Shocked



Chaos Crew is mostly gives low to almost zero return despite high bonus spin amount but it can give massive multiplier if you are lucky enough just like the screenshot above. I manage to win a good multiplier using this slot games before even though I have a rough start but all pain of early losses is worthy if Chaos Crew will give you the one time big time multiplier that it rewards to a lucky player.

This slot games give either very low win or a massive win because I rarely receive an average/breakeven win when I made a bonus buy. Chaos Crew 2 is much balance in terms of volatility but still can give a high multiplier on a lucky day.

Just sharing this old article[1] from 2022 regarding sa crypto taxation sa Pilipinas. Considered as Capital Gain Tax nga talaga ang profit sa crypto since under TRAIN law na noon pa man ang kinoconsider sa pagcompute ng tax.

Sa mga hindi pa nakakaalam kung pano ang conputation ng taxes under TRAIN law ay pwede nyong gawin reference yung picture below:



Ganyan katindi ang taxes ngayon sa Pilipinas kung mareregulate ng tama ang crypto sa bansa natin. Kung kumita ka ng 8M ay dapat ibigay mo yung fixed na 2M PHP. Sobrang hirap yumaman kapag ganito ang tax since maaari ka matalo sa susunod na taon ng mas malaki pa pero wala ka ng refund sa tax na binayad mo dati. Grin

238  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Slot game with increasing RTP on: March 25, 2024, 04:03:53 PM
Why do you need to play on slot games that increase RTP while the potential max RTP on this slot games is still the same on the base RTP of other slot games. The progressive part on RTP is just misleading you that the game even better the more you play but in reality you will lose a lot in early games due to low RTP until you have a better RTP while you can enjoy a much a higher RTP on all of your games by playing initially on high RTP slot games.

Metawin offers a max RTP to all its slot games according to their previous announcements which you can find here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5483159.msg63824122#msg63824122. Playing on Metawin will guarantee that max win is always possible since the RTP is max compared to other casino.

Max win is always possible in any casino as long as the casino is trusted and as long as you have luck regardless the RTP applied by the casino.
Having higher RTP does not mean that we will have better chance to hit max win IMO, as Betwrong said previously that you may lose all your balance easily even if you play slot with highest RTP.
Some people even hit max win when the global live RTP is lower than its default RTP because they are lucky and some people lose easir when the global live RTP is 5-10x bigger than the default RTP because they have bad luck.
RTP never give any guarantee of better result so dont be fooled with RTP and make you force yourself to play more than you should.

My comment is based on the official statement of the casino that share this info. You can view it on the reference link that I attached. This is new to me either but I trust their words when they disclose this information in the public which as a player we don’t have any idea on the technical aspect of slot games since it’s open source. I will put some of the info below.

My statement is not base on my opinion but rather on the reference below.

We have just announced our MAX WINS GUARANTEE, which ensures that any games that you find at Metawin, will always have the HIGHEST PAYOUT RTP* settings applied.

Operators can choose between low, medium, and high payout settings, and they rarely disclose which version they use. At MetaWin, we believe in playing smart, with transparency and integrity.
As such, we offer a MAX WINS GUARANTEE, and that's why we're proud to display the Return to Player (RTP) % under all our games.

Why do you need to play on slot games that increase RTP while the potential max RTP on this slot games is still the same on the base RTP of other slot games. ~

I'd say, even if the RTP is actually increased and it's a bit higher than the base RTP of other slot games that doesn't mean you are going to win much more. Even playing on slots with 99% RTP you can easily lose all your your balance, so be careful about that. Play only with money you can afford to lose. Don't expect making profits on slots with increased RTP.

My statement is simply based on the RTP alone regardless of the slot game. Since there’s already slot games set with high RTP while this increasing RTP max is just the same. I don’t get the point on pursuing a game like this that gives you a low starting RTP.

So where's the fun when you lose your money?

You will think this way if you use gambling as source of income and not for entertainment purposes only. You should only gamble during your free time so that you will not neglect other task you need to do for that day. Remember that you should playing gambling only when you want to be entertained due to no activity on your life.

Many people failed to understand the real essence on gambling and usually play even they are sacrificing most of there precious time just to get quick profit even though they don’t need entertainment since they have active social life.

My question to BC Game Support:

What would happen if I deposited the $99000 and lost all in the very same game?
Or you are only voiding the won bets on this scenario?

Would you void the lost bets aswell? Please answer this. Thanks

Asking a rhetorical question will not gonna improve your case. BC will only accept all the bets that are done in a fair way regardless of the result. There’s a lot of player on BC that is natural high roller that is not encountering any problem which means that if your assumption is correct then you can see tons of scam accusation against them here with same narrative as yours.

Your account background makes it very hard to believe on your side now that many new account with previous violation on the casino exists.BC will easily solve your case if it’s a genuinely game play because they already have a history of resolving all their pending issue here in the forum.
