You pointed to the downside of this business, though is not that negative as it is.

But the time and the effort in managing this business really needs you a deeper patience, business like this isn't profitable
Overtime, you need to work on with each aspect to attract gamblers; you need to have a competitive business platform
to have it all, though, the idea of winning as owner is really high.
If you don't benefit from it then it is a negative or cons whatever you want to call it. Time and effort is can easily be alleviated if you recruit the right people to do the job and manage the business for you, I mean if you are smart and you know different ways to make things easier, your business will be profitable in no time. The gambling house owner winning is an indicator that the business is doing well.

Don't be tempted to spend if if you don't really need it, that's a test, if you want your income to increase in value in the long run, then the only way is just to hold and keep participating in signature campaigns so every week bitcoin will come into your wallet.
I think that I have already passed that test because I don't really gamble a lot right now and it has been 4 months since I have been doing this so there is no way that I am going to spend it right away and yeah I know that the value will increase overtime, that is why I am doing this.
2303  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who where how much withdrew from no deposit on: March 30, 2021, 02:56:04 AM
The highest i can get from freebet was USD 2,300. Got a freebet at USD 10, rolled it like crazy lol.
Usually in Asian website they are quite royal about freebet. Im not really sure about crypto casino.
That is a lot of money to get without a deposit, I mean in my country that would be enough for one person to live for 3 to 4 months with a surplus if they are frugal in spending. Those kinds of gambling sites are a really good site because they are confident that their client base is going to go back for more because they are free to do so.
2304  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gamblers - How do you use your signature campaign earnings? on: March 29, 2021, 08:18:00 AM
Good for you man and that was a rare scenario for someone who doesn't use their signature campaign earnings instead they hodl it for so long. I think people can only do this kind of stuff if they have multiple sources of income. As for me, as stated months ago that I bought some rare books with it. I cannot afford to hodl it at those time because the books are so rare if I don't buy it right away they posted it, it would be sold after some hours.
It takes nerves of steel and a lot of patience to hodl for a long time, I mean I have been hodling about half of my earnings for about 4 months now and I am tempted to spend it all but good thing is that I am through with gambling and there is no chance that I will spend it here. Good for you that you are buying rare books, I plan to do the same thing but there are still a lot of things that needs to be prioritized so it has to wait even if rare books are appreciating in value overtime.

HArd fact but true , We may think that winning is on ours today but we don't tend to remember that our wins today is the losses we have in the past.
I Know also that we will never win in gambling if we don't know how to invest while in gambling.
Hard fact but true is redundant. You can actually see the results for yourselves in regards to your gambling habits and to see if you really are winning, you can chart your loss, wins and capital every time you gamble and you will eventually see a pattern that is slowly going down. You can just invest and not gamble at all, I mean you will get more profit out of your investment if the money that you plan to gamble was put on investment.

There is another working method that has proven to be working for years now : be the roulette owner; basically every casino , either physical and online ones, offers roulette game, this clearly mean running a roulette is a profitable business otherwise they wouldn't have any.
Made me giggle with that one and yeah I forgot that one and at the same time I agree with it, I mean no way you are going to lose when you own the roulette although it is really expensive to buy one for your gambling house and the profits can take years before you can breakeven the capital and your business has to survive. In short, owning the roulette doesn't necessarily make you win because the stress of managing business is overwhelming for many.
2307  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Awareness and Meme Images on: March 29, 2021, 06:16:27 AM
This is just a simple illustration yet the image says it all, the house will always win and if you're greedy you can lose everything.
We have to learn to become more discipline when it comes to gambling, don't spend if you can't afford to lose money and never chase your losses because there's no turning back. Be responsible with your gambling, and just enjoy playing don't make this one as your main source of money.
It doesn't prey on greed in my opinion because if you are gambling then you are already greedy because you want to take your chances on making fast money. Yes discipline does work but it should be accompanied with the help of your relatives or loved ones because gambling addiction like any other addiction needs an emotional support to make the recovery stronger and more effective, and I agree that we should enjoy gambling because a lot of people always forget that very fundamental thing when it comes to gambling because there is money involved.

2308  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Anyone here using thunderpick.com? on: March 29, 2021, 05:39:46 AM
The site looks good but I'm afraid I will not try them as they don't haven an active ANN thread in the forum, it would be easier to check their reputation if they have an ANN thread, so hopefully someday they will start if they want to gain a community here.
You can still try though, you just have to put less money on it and don't expect it to get back at you, I mean testing the waters instead of just waiting will speed up the process of confirming whether the site is a legitimate one.
2309  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to win at roulette? on: March 29, 2021, 04:48:19 AM
Only way I can think of on how to win at roulette is not playing in it, I mean the chances of your number landing on the roulette is so low that the only way to increase your chances is to put more money on other numbers which doesn't really help you breakeven because you still lost those other numbers that you have betted on.
2310  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The fine line between market investment and sports gambling on: March 29, 2021, 04:12:54 AM
I have tried both and let me tell you that market investment or trading like they call it is way more dangerous than gambling.A gambling event for example sport game takes time like 90 minute a match and gives you time to reflect while the market changes every minute and if you become addicted you can cause yourself a lot more damage than gambling and this in a very short time.
You can hold your investments in the long term and you can pull it out anytime you feel like while in gambling overtime you are losing more money even if you are winning because the wins of the present is to offset the losses from the past and in gambling losses tend to incur faster than wins so I don't think that investment is more dangerous than gambling, maybe if you are on a pyramiding scheme then maybe your investment is in danger.
2311  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Beware of the Frauds , how pandemic is affecting gambling negatively on: March 29, 2021, 03:29:28 AM
As the number of online casinos and online gamblers increased due to the lockdown and online casinos being the best option to avoid physical contact, except that the number of people using gambling to scam people will increase also. Gambling indeed is one of the best income sources due to the limited job opportunities due to the pandemic. Even minors or those who countries, where gambling is prohibited, are just using VPN and can easily access this website due to lax restrictions and not all gambling platforms don't require KYC.
The problem can easily be solved if we were to inform the people about the gambling platforms that scams people, I mean that is the only way and most of the victims of this scamming gambling sites are oblivious to the fact that they are going to be scammed because most of this websites operate in a way that they look like a legitimate one. Minors gambling is not the responsibility of the website as the parents are the first and should be the only deterrent for their children to stop gambling.
2312  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What age bracket is perfect for gambling on: March 29, 2021, 02:43:08 AM
There are countries that allow their children at the ripe age of 7 years old, but if I have a kid that age I will not allow him to play, gambling can corrupt the mind of a child if he is not ready to play and bet, the perfect age for me is 20 years old, the person can think clearly and analyze everything by the age of 20 he will be responsible to all his action good or bad.
I would probably match it with the legal age which is 18 to be fair with the kid and to give them the responsibility for their action. 7 years old gambling is pretty bad thing to be honest because as the quote above says which I too believe is true is that gambling corrupts the mind and those years should be formative which means that we have to shape them to do good habits and mindset and if we were to do the opposite then it will be a problem in his/her adulthood.
2313  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Madness/Insanity in sports betting/gambling on: March 29, 2021, 02:03:53 AM
This can be similar to pareidolia meaning someone that can see unusual patterns from an object then they tend to worship it. If people around that insane person thinks that he predicts correctly the result of sports betting or anything related to gambling then they will suddenly think that insanse person must have an ability that a sane person doesn't have. Even if it is just a coincidence, they are blinded by their greed to win in gambling. I would just believe that insane person has extraordinary powers if he can correctly predict the result of lottery thrice in a row.
Pareidolia doesn't necessarily means that they will worship it, they just have a different perception on the object to the point that they see a pattern that resemble something but you are right this has some similarities with it but I don't think that an unstable state of mind is going to be a helpful thing for gambling in general no matter how you look at it, everything that will happen will just be a coincidence, not to mention that they just want an excuse to gamble more because of their belief that insanity can help them predict the odds.
2314  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Future of BTC on: March 27, 2021, 10:16:59 AM
There isn't any certainty when it comes to bitcoin's future, we just have to put the same faith that we put in it during the 2017-2018 crash and everything will be good for us because despite the uncertainty, the charts for the prices is enough evidence that bitcoin is going to grow and the news around the world about countries and businesses adopting bitcoin in their ecosystem so in conclusion, we don't have to worry about anything.
2315  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Type of people who buy bitcoin. on: March 27, 2021, 09:38:38 AM
That is a difficult to answer because minimum wage varies per country and in my country, minimum wage isn't enough even for daily needs for a month, if you are frugal enough you might have some surplus in money but it won't be enough to consider investing that surplus money in bitcoin. I would say that if the person that is working a minimum wage doesn't have any responsibility such as a family or children then maybe if that person can live in a low maintenance for a month then that person might be able to afford to save money to invest bitcoin little by little.
2316  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Retirement Funds Starting to Buy Bitcoins Nasdaq Say on: March 27, 2021, 08:48:09 AM
This is awesome and scary at the same time. A lot of huge companies are already trying to get a piece of the pie on large increments. Should there ever be a huge crash, we all know that these entities aren't as die-hard as most of us here, and would surely cut losses that'll send bitcoin into an even deeper pit.

Perhaps this is one of the chapters wherein bitcoin is really getting big and companies can no longer ignore bitcoin, and this is also that chapter wherein bitcoin is very fragile IMO.
Exactly, with bitcoin not having been tested yet if it can survive for a hundred years, it will definitely scare someone but you are also right that it is awesome because this means that we can test bitcoin and its capabilities to be used as a retirement fund. We can't do much about this but to hope for the best and continue hodling bitcoin until we are satisfied with the prices.
2317  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is it smart to invest in Bitcoin? or in Ethereum? on: March 27, 2021, 07:23:53 AM
If you have the money to invest in both then it is the better scenario, but if not then you might want to go for bitcoin because of the steady growth and unlike ethereum where the gas price is currently so expensive, I think that bitcoin is the way to go.
2318  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: A quick thought on how to help/save bitcoin. on: March 27, 2021, 06:20:34 AM
If you look more closely you can see that such things do not always successfully affect the market. In fact most times they are ignored by the majority specially if the post is against the ongoing market trend.
But you can also see that such effects are small and short term.
Maybe the reason that it didn't work is because there isn't enough people that have been doing the thing to move the market, I mean look at the Wallstreetbets Gamestop fiasco, if there was enough people to move the market then the market will move.

So you are saying that we should create a "bitcoin pump and dump group" and you think that "saves" bitcoin?! lol.
I think that is what OP wants. To be honest though, it is a pretty shitty idea because it needs a lot of people, you can just do your thing and continue trading in bitcoin and cryptocurrencies and you will be good to go.
2319  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin scarsity, the reason it's worth hodling bitcoin on: March 27, 2021, 05:46:57 AM
Also everyone should not wait for 2140, for the supposedly last bitcoin to be mine. I think by 2038, we will have a full grasp of bitcoin to be scarce as we will have mine 20 million bitcoin by that time. And the last 1 million bitcoin should be mine in the next 100 years. So it really make it worth to hold bitcoin at least and then see how the price goes. Maybe we will see the price in like the 6 digits or even more.
You mean 19 million bitcoin because I don't think that satoshi is going to release his 1 million. It really is worth it to hold your bitcoin but you have to know when you are going to hodl and sell your bitcoin because you need the money that comes from it in the end. Scarcity will only happen if the exchange of bitcoins from other addresses are getting lower every day.

Do you need dogs?
Welcome to dog food market

It's either they've scammed some funds already and decide that it's time to take down the site, or they got a warning from their domain registrar so they change the content, this is not the last time that we are going to see something like this.
I think that the text was the previous content of the website maybe, I don't think that they are going to take down the site just because they have scammed some funds, by the scammers logic that means the website is working well and taking it down is removing their twisted source of income in a way. I agree that this isn't going to be the last time and their login form looks really convincing basing on the screenshots and I hope that no one has fallen for it yet.
