2321  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Jamie Dimon CEO of Chase Bank on Banking Crisis on: April 12, 2023, 02:15:26 PM

Why do we have to mind about opinion of Jamie Dimon. He belongs to bank system and talked many shits about Bitcoin.



Some members of the forum obviously have a great need to "feed" on what so-called "influential people" say, and the OP is just one of them. JPM's chatterbox has already proven himself countless times as someone who says one thing today and makes a complete U-turn tomorrow, so even though he may be right about the banks and the crisis, he hasn't said anything that isn't already known.

When making a bitcoin transfer, Electrum still requires a password to sign. So I really need help.

Save yourself time and nerves and listen to the advice from this post :

Even when I was an active player at sports betting sites, I remember that suspicious matches used to be blocked practically everywhere if it was determined that there was suspicious activity (extremely high bets on high odds). I think there was even an agency or something similar that monitored such things and all bookmakers would then exclude such events from their offer.

People should read the small print in TOS, then maybe they would be a little less surprised by some things.
2324  Economy / Gambling / Re: Duelbits limiting winners on minor leagues on: April 12, 2023, 10:58:51 AM
This is nothing to be surprised about, because every company that deals in sports betting has to "protect" itself from those that it estimates have a high percentage of winnings in certain sports/leagues. Maybe it doesn't seem fair to the player, but it's something that has always happened, albeit to a much lesser extent.

If we look at the offer of today's bookies, we can see that they really offer betting on such low football leagues where there are a lot of fixed results. Football is first and foremost a big business, and only then is it sport and entertainment. For those who think differently, I suggest watching the FIFA Uncovered documentary series.

I congratulate you on your first 10 years on the forum, and I wish you to celebrate a new anniversary one day, of course 20 years would be very nice Wink

I'm a little younger than you when it comes to registration, but soon it will be 8 years since I registered, and even more than 9 years when I first found this forum. Given that it happens that some old members leave the forum for various personal reasons, it is good to see that we have members who have been active for such a long time and are still actively participating in the work of the forum.

I don't want to speak in general, but with regard to AI chat-bots, it seems to me that lately we have more and more bot-members and that in 10 years (if the forum exists), there won't be too much human interaction on the forum.

My bad, I really missed your post, I just randomly ignored Cheesy Sorry mate, I was mostly recognizing you via chipmixer campaign and was reading your posts, you are a good member Smiley

And then they say that such things have nothing to do with how people experience you on the forum - obviously each member is worth as much as he earns per week in the sig campaign Wink

Btw can you show us an image of how does PM popup look like? May you turn on an option and I'll send you a PM or may I turn on that option and you send me a pm? I have already marked that option.

No problem, I'll send you a PM so you can see for yourself how it looks.

Facebook is dirtier than Google, the process of running an advertisement is similar to Google but the reach is absolutely amazing.

For all of them, profit comes first, regardless of the fact that they know very well that they are promoting anything and everything through their services, without almost any verification of what it is about. They have made sure that the laws protect them very well, i.e. that they are not responsible for the content that is displayed on their services through the advertisements that they provide. Even if they end up in a situation where they have to pay a fine, no matter how big those fines seem to us, for them it's just a small part of the profit.



~snip~
Otherwise, Ledger has already compromised its user base several times, so I hope that this kind of scam does not have a big impact, or at least it is reduced to a minimum.

Exactly, because as far as cryptocurrency users are concerned, I generally think that no company is responsible for as much data leakage as Ledger. I don't mean only e-mails, but complete data including e-mail, phone number, full name and address. I wonder how it is possible that they are still at the top after everything, but it is obvious that most of those whose data was leaked were not too worried about it.

I also check if I have a new personal message when I log in, and after that I rely on the option "Show a popup when you receive new messages?" which, when turned on, notifies you every time you receive a new personal message in a way that is difficult (or impossible) to ignore.

It's not that your option wouldn't be an additional improvement, but it's not a problem for me personally as it is now.


By the way, what do you guys think about one-time popup? No one can miss a popup.

There is also a setting in the SMF Forums that provides an alert box in the popup dialog box when you receive a personal message. Just go and use that if you really want an alert whenever you receive a message.

Unbelievable that I mentioned this option in the second post of this topic, and then someone wonders if this option exists at all or discovers it again after 20+ posts Huh

Do you all have me on ignore or does nobody read anything except the OP and the title anymore?

For every round, I make sure to have at least 1 ticket as that is enough to win it. Most of the times, I can obtain one thanks to the WOF spins (this round I won 2), if not than I just buy one.

I am not a premium user and I only have one spin per day, but it seems that the golden ticket is something that has a very low probability of winning, just like any other prize that is a little more valuable. Since it's all just a game, I find that I just (like many others) have no luck getting the pointer to stop where I want it to. However, considering that I have been a user of this faucet practically since the very beginning, I remember the good winnings on the faucet over the years that I have not yet spent, so I even get some interest on the amount that I keep in the account.
2330  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: South Korean crypto exchange GDAC hacked for nearly $14M on: April 11, 2023, 03:40:12 PM
~snip~
I thought SK went on a rampage with regulations, scaring most of the exchanges away, how did these guys manage to stay afloat?

When I became more seriously interested in Bitcoin about some ten years ago, I thought that things like this (hacking) did not have much of a chance of happening in countries like Japan or South Korea, because they are countries at a high technological level and with highly educated people who know their job. However, it turned out that these countries have become something that is mostly written about in a bad context, from Mt.Gox to Kwon, not to mention how many times the South Korean CEX Bithumb was hacked (at least 3 times as far as I know).

I really don't know what these people are doing there, but either they are absolutely incompetent or they are the biggest experts in internal theft, which they then present as hacking. Fortunately, news like this has almost no influence on the rest of the world, and as for the South Koreans, if they want to continue doing things the wrong way, just let them continue until finally some "smart" politician says enough and introduces a ban on crypto trading.

Can owning 1 Bitcoin make you rich in 2023?

The correct answer is YES and NO, and if you are wondering how this is possible, the answer is very simple. 1 BTC in a third world country and the same BTC somewhere in a developed country definitely have a different value for the one who owns it. For someone, the current $30 000 per 1 BTC would represent a real fortune, for someone else it would certainly not be the case. This means that everything depends on where you live and how you perceive the term "rich".

When I understood the true potential of Bitcoin. I joined this forum as I am not someone who can spare the money required to invest for 1BTC.

I hope you know that you don't have to buy 1 BTC to own it, you can also buy very small shares if you consider that the smallest unit of BTC "satoshi" 0.00000001, and you can theoretically buy BTC worth only a few $.

So, my question is can Bitcoin give a life that I dreamt as a child. Is it possible to gain financial freedom? What exactly does financial freedom means in context of Bitcoin?

It is possible to make some dreams come true by investing some money in Bitcoin, but considering that you yourself admit that you don't have any money (or that you don't have enough to buy 1 BTC), then that dream cannot come true literally overnight. If you set a goal and if you persist in it, maybe one day you will achieve your dream.

As for financial freedom, Bitcoin gives you the possibility to be your own bank, in other words to control the private keys that allow you to spend the Bitcoin you bought. Simply put, only you have control over what you own, of course if you want it and if you understand how to achieve it. You buy Bitcoin, send it to your address in a non-custodial wallet (desktop, hardware wallet) and after you make a backup and store it safely, you have your own bank Wink

As for the upcoming announcement of the next lottery winner, it would be great if a winner was some lucky guy who literally had a few golden tickets.

Speaking of the biggest prize, did any of the lucky winners publicly brag about such a prize? I would definitely take the prize in BTC rather than the car, because all the costs I would have to pay to import it would probably be in the range of a new mid-range car.

As for those golden lottery tickets, I play regularly and so far I haven't had the luck to win any, although I know a friend who has had more luck, and I've seen some forum members who have won them.

Why do you even communicate with strangers that way? I understand that things like this cannot be avoided if you sell something online or offer some virtual services, but if you leave your contact around, then you can't expect anything other than that all kinds of strange people (scammers) will contact you.

If I were you, that chat would end after one or two messages, and that user would be blocked. It's not that I'm afraid that someone will deceive me or something similar, but I consider such things a complete waste of time.

Bruh, don't bring data to a propaganda topic, you might confuse the poor fellow!  Grin
Oh and one thing, I don't doubt unemployment is down in Russia, with 300 000 dead and maimed for life and a further 400 000 kidnapped from the streets to serve in the military pretty obvious a ton of job openings are available right now!

You forgot about the prisons that were cleaned of tens of thousands of prisoners who chose 6 months of war to maybe get their freedom. Although most of them did not return, I read a few days ago that some of them survived and committed a new crime immediately after returning home, and were again sent to prison. Will the main orchestrator give them another chance?

You know what they say, statistics are important, and it doesn't matter how you reduced unemployment - 10 years ago my country had about 500 000 unemployed, last year we issued over 120 000 work permits to foreigners, and for the government that is a success. All these politicians are the same, only their methods differ.
2337  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Times When Casinos Will Ask Certificate That You Are A Responsible Gambler on: April 10, 2023, 01:23:56 PM
Will there come a time when online casinos will implement that you upload a responsible gambler certificate before you continue to play because of too many government restrictions it's not necessary for newly registered gamblers but for gamblers who lose a lot of money and their activity is they are suspected to be addicted to gambling.
~snip~

The authorities know very well that they should stick to those old methods that go back thousands of years and which enable them to keep people under control - panem et circenses or as they would say today "bread and circuses". In other words, people must not be hungry, and on the other hand, they should be allowed to play with their money, even if it means that some of them will become addicted to it to the extent that it will become a real problem.

After all, such a certificate would be almost meaningless, because not only would it be easy to forge it, but it would also be extremely complicated to verify every player. As for every casino and any other game of chance, it is enough to warn players to play responsibly, and that playing can be addictive. Everything else is a matter of personal choice.
2338  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What advice do you give a newbie? on: April 10, 2023, 01:07:57 PM
for a start, you should be honest. As I can see from your previous writing, even if you are a newbie, you started giving political analysis and pieces of advice. this post of yours seems to me more like an attempt to collect merit (translation gave a different meaning).
~snip~

Good observation, I also find it strange when someone asks for instructions and has been writing on the forum for a week, mainly on the topic of politics and economics. If you come to a forum that has "bitcointalk" in its name, and you don't show that you have any interest in Bitcoin or altcoins, my only advice would be to ask yourself "maybe I'm in the wrong place?"

Not that I want to discourage the OP, but I just want to say that if I'm interested in football and not basketball, then I won't go to a basketball game, pretty simple.
2339  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Take good care of yourselves on: April 10, 2023, 10:42:01 AM
We all have this dream of becoming a Satoshi millionaire, many people have the target of making their first 1 million dollars and yes that's a good thing, this is possible with crypto and Bitcoin and I am not here to discourage you.

I think that many people simply aim too high, and there is a saying that says "he who flies high, falls low". If someone thinks that $1 million will solve all their problems, then they are greatly mistaken, because that money will melt in the blink of an eye, because the more money you have, the faster you will spend it.

I have seen people taking this holding of Bitcoin too far, where they are doing all they can to accumulate Bitcoin. Like limiting their spending by all means, eating less food, and doing harder jobs, I just want you to know that we are living on borrowed time.

That's one of the human flaws, they grab and collect so much that they don't even realize that their life has passed without them doing a lot of the things they wanted to do. In the end, fate plays with them and everything is inherited by someone who doesn't appreciate it at all. Therefore, I agree that everyone should live in such a way that they do not deprive themselves of some basic life needs just because you think that the price of BTC tomorrow will be higher than today.

In the end, we should use Bitcoin as much as possible as a currency, because that's the only way it will fulfill its purpose.

After an account under the nickname fennic commits plagiarism, and the moderators do not react to it in any way, after receiving a negative tag, he connects a second account under the nickname classicman1. With whom he successfully exchanges merits.

I honestly thought that after so much evidence @fennic got a perma-ban and that I wouldn't hear about him again on the forum, but he seems to have nine lives or one of the admins is his uncle Cheesy

It's clear to me that you can't just kick some people out of the forum because they keep coming back like a boomerang, but don't evil fees play any role for those people? Do they pay for new accounts, or do they somehow slip through the system?
