There are a lot of Fiat casinos that added Crypto currencies and now suddenly they look like Crypto casinos. Fiat casinos are those casinos that only accept traditional payment options.. like Credit cards etc.

I think the "Brick n Mortar" casinos or land-based casinos will eventually fund the development of online casinos for the future, because overheads for "Brick n Mortar" casinos are much higher than with online casinos.  Wink

I really think NFTs are just a new trend or FAD that will blow over soon.... like we saw with the ICOs. (I hope I will not regret saying this, but after the whole ICO thing... I have lost some confidence in all the new technologies that are being used to "make" money.  Tongue

You can look at these two links ==> https://cointelegraph.com/news/limited-edition-nfts-unlock-access-to-crypto-casinos  and also https://www.gbhbl.com/how-online-casinos-use-nfts-and-blockchain-technology/

What happens when someone dies? ...Answer: Someone or an organization inherit his coins... so it is just natural that it might be used.  Roll Eyes  He was not Satoshi Nakamoto.... so I do not know why people have this obsession to monitor other people's wealth.

He was cryopreserved by the Alcor Life Extension Foundation, so I guess this foundation has to be paid to do this? I do not know if you pay for this before you die... or do they put money into a trust to pay for this?

Which "Men's Journal" are you referring to OP? When you post something like this, you have to post the proof in the form of a Url link or even a picture of the journal, if it is not something online. (Example : Men's Magazine)

People want to know how they came to that decision and if it is worthy of their time to investigate it's validity. There are a lot of competition out there and there are a lot of unethical methods used to get the edge over other competition. (Paying for good reviews or casinos funding review sites)  Roll Eyes
2205  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Reasons Why We Prefer Online Casinos to Land-based Casinos on: October 27, 2022, 06:12:08 AM
I think one of the reasons why I prefer to gamble online is the fact that the most popular Slots are almost always occupied in a Brick n Mortar casino, so you have to wait for someone else to finish, before you can play that Slot. (Some will even leave their card in the Slot and then they will leave it there, until they get back.... causing a lot of frustration)  Tongue

When I play at Online casinos... my favorite Slots are available 24/7 and I can sit there for hours playing it, not having to feel guilty that I am hogging the Slot and that other people also have to get a chance playing it.  Wink
2206  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: gambling techniques on: October 27, 2022, 06:01:56 AM
The gambling strategy explained here are called the Martingale strategy and it is definitely not infallible, because you can lose whatever you gained within a couple of bets, when you hit a losing streak. Never automate this strategy on Dice, because you need to control this strategy for it not to wipe you out. ==> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martingale_(betting_system)

I started experimenting with this strategy on Freebitco.in back in the day... and it was a hit and miss for me every time I tried it. There are many variants on this strategy, but most of them are crap.  Roll Eyes

Elon Musk has already shown that he is and possibly will be the richest person in the world for a long time into the future. So, when you have one of the wealthiest people in the world, supporting Bitcoin... you know that there are something "good" about it.  Wink

Can you imagine what will happen if he successfully colonize Mars and when the Earth starts to spiral out of control? He will then be the most successful person on Mars too..  Wink
2208  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: No Alternative to Bitcoin, Your Alternative is Bitcoin. on: October 27, 2022, 05:33:17 AM
The problem is.... for every Positive news.... there are 5 FUD attempts to sabotage the impact that the positive news would have had on the markets. The paid media are being supported by lots of money to spread negative news about Crypto currencies, because their masters wants Bitcoin to fail. (Puppet masters from Fiat systems)

So, yes... we need all the positive news we can get to counter the FUD that are spread. Make a point of it to search for it and keep posting it in the future.  Wink

Can you tell us where you are getting your Cooking Oil from and how much of this are coming from your own produce? The countries that are struggling ..are the ones that are mostly importing Oil from the Ukraine and now with the war, Ukraine cannot produce enough to export to other countries... or their crops was destroyed by the Russians.

Also, how much of the oil that are on the shelves, where stock that was stockpiled in warehouses, before the shortages started? A lot of the old stock are now sold at inflated prices... even if it was bought at a much lower price.  Angry Angry Angry
2210  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will This Habit Lead You To Chase Your Losses And Addictive To Gambling on: October 26, 2022, 08:48:27 AM
Do you think it's unhealthy to always post your winnings on social media and forums because this habit will lead you to chase your losses and bet more so you can post your winning, I find this habit forming and this is bad especially if people are following you and always looking forward to your winning posts.

People that always do thus are media influencers. It could be that they are paid by some gambling companies to always post and advertise their site. Another thing could be the person gives people prediction and takes money. So they will post more and more winnings so that people will believe them that they are very good in winning bets, by then they will have more customers and make more money than they win.

No, I disagree.. it is not just paid Social media Streamers that are doing this... there are a lot of people that are not streamers, but they simply want to brag with other gamblers about their winnings.

Take the Stake.com English Chat for instance... people post their latest wins all the time and then people will start the "begging" for rain, just after it was posted. A lot of those people are doing it... for self gratification ....and others are doing this to show the other gamblers that they won against the house.  Roll Eyes
2211  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Question to players: what does really drive you crazy in an online casino? on: October 26, 2022, 08:37:41 AM
I think one of the things that irritate me the most is the "lag" on some games and also the constant "errors" on the Slot games. You might be playing for a while and then you get the "Cashier error" or "Connection Time-out" etc... etc.

A lot of this has to do with the congestion on the servers that are used by the 3rd party service providers or simply bad coding. (Sinominal Games are the worst)  Angry Angry Angry
2212  Economy / Gambling / Re: US players, where are you playing now? on: October 26, 2022, 06:03:02 AM
Well, Stake.com created a Sweepstake casino specifically for the US players, but I think a lot of the US players are still playing through VPNs on unregulated casinos to get the full experience. A lot of the 3rd party Slot providers has geographical restrictions, so most of the games are not available to US players.  Roll Eyes

It gets a bit tricky if you use a VPN and you win something big, because the casinos will use that as an excuse not to honor the withdrawal, if you played with a VPN. (Then suddenly, KYC verification is asked)  Roll Eyes
2213  Other / Archival / Re: Most investors think regulation is a good thing on: October 26, 2022, 05:57:34 AM
The "Investors" will not ask for regulations, because they want the volatility to increase their profits.... and a unregulated commodity will have more volatility, because Crypto whales can flourish in a unregulated environment.

The Retail industry on the other hand, want a less volatile currency, because it works better with the pricing of items and services, if you have a less volatile currency.  Wink
2214  Economy / Economics / Re: government hampers the country's economy on: October 25, 2022, 08:39:16 AM
Well, the best example of this is the allocation of large Tenders to family and friends of the leaders of those countries. Take Nigeria as an example, they have large Oil reserves and you would expect that the people would benefit from that.... but the opposite is true, some politicians and their families are getting the majority of those riches..from corrupt tenders and bribes.  Roll Eyes

So, yes.... governments can hamper the growth of the country..when they have corrupt leaders and politicians. In democratic countries, people fight back with their votes..... but the corrupt politicians even rig those voting results.  Angry Angry Angry
2215  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A disheartening true life winning story on: October 25, 2022, 08:11:15 AM
The question is....

1. Was it a technical error or did they wipe the Bet ID.

The casinos keep very good records of ALL bets that are done on their platform, so they should be able to draw those reports. The first thing I do when I win something BIG ..is to record the BetID and also to make a screen capture of the Win. (The screen capture will have a time stamp of the time and date of it being taken, so you can use that as proof.)

I find that smaller casinos with a small Bankroll, will look for reasons not to pay people... so I avoid them. Play with the more reputable and large casinos, because they do not have issues when it comes to large payouts.  Wink
2216  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I won 9600$ in dice by mistake on: October 25, 2022, 08:01:04 AM
Well, it could have went the other way, with you losing that $200 in one bet, so you are extremely lucky. I once deposited $2000 and I also played Dice and I wanted to play with $0.20 ... but I typed it incorrectly as $20 and started "Auto" bet with 1000 bets. It stopped betting after about 200 bets with insufficient funds and when I checked ... I noticed my mistake and nearly blown my top!!!!

It is easy to make mistakes.... so you should always double check all your inputs, when you pre-configure the games. Congratulations on your win and do not deposit all the wins back into the casino.... take some for yourself.  Wink
2217  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Good News: Bitcoin Achieves Guinness World Record Titles on: October 25, 2022, 05:29:56 AM
The Guinness World Records is very good publicity for Bitcoin and a added value is that it is positive publicity. In a world that are dominated by FUD, some positive news will boost Bitcoin's reputation.

It gives Bitcoin some legitimacy and it also highlights some aspects that puts it head and shoulders above other shitcoins. Also, the fact that it puts the history of the coin in some perspective, because some people like to "change" the history to suite their agenda.  Roll Eyes
2218  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What do you think China will lose by banning Bitcoin? on: October 25, 2022, 05:22:16 AM
Well, for one thing.... if Bitcoin become a global reserve currency in the future and countries like China banned it, then they will lose out on the benefits of their people to use that currency. I do not think that will bother them too much, because their government wants total control over their citizens and the financial freedom that Bitcoin provide, will be perceived as a threat to their control.

My guess is that China will bring out their own government controlled Crypto currency (GovCoin) and they will force people to use that. Their citizens that will be using that currency, will be verified and all transactions will be monitored by their government.
2219  Economy / Gambling / Re: trustdice - scam, very bad site. on: October 24, 2022, 12:31:24 PM
It is weird that they are not telling you why you are banned specifically, but just give you a broad description from their ToS.  Roll Eyes  Did they tell you specifically.... or are you withholding information from us?

Some people create duplicate Alt accounts to misuse bonuses, so you might have created another account before and forgot about that.. and their team might have linked that account to this account ...and now they blocked this account, because they think that you are misusing the bonuses.  Huh
2220  Economy / Gambling / Re: Stake.com - The Leading Crypto Casino - 🦉 Drake, UFC, Watford Main Partner ⚽ 🥊 on: October 24, 2022, 12:19:41 PM
I wonder what happened with the end of the year "Lambo draw" or big giveaway price draw? If there was going to be something like that, then it should have started already.... but I do not see anything.

It can be that the Stake $1 000 000 Birthday earlier this year, took too much of the marketing budget and that we might not have something this year. There is still some time left, let's hope for the best.....  Tongue
