2341  Economy / Economics / Re: Passive income : Bank interest vs staking on: April 28, 2022, 08:27:04 AM
Of course, comparing interest banks with staking such as comparing ants and elephants, in my country, banks only give about 10%, whereas now many stakes are giving up to hundreds or even thousands of percent, and this is what makes me prefer to make staking as a top priority for Earning and farming money.

I like the ones between 20 - lower than 100% APY! Hundreds or even thousands percent APY is just too good to be true! I guess it's ok if you catch some projects in the early days, I saw some of them offering good APY to attract people, but even that is risky, it's not so easy to find a solid staking project with high APY that will last! It's ok to try it with some amount you won't regret losing, but I wouldn't trust in staking with over 100% APY with some serious money!

Speaking of all the fun things with FUN, seems like I just reached the 180day locking period as my WoF spins just increased by 1 (hooray!).

That's good news for me on 2 levels. Obviously, getting an additional free spin for the next 180 days is awesome (and the cashback and the interest). Secondly, I'm halfway through a one year lock, and can look forward to 25% more FUN back in there. Good times.

Nice! I am also getting 7 WoF spins! I had two locked savings and a week ago I finished 180 days locking period with one of them, in the next 10 days the other will be unlocked too! I am waiting for that and I am planning to buy some more and lock it for 360 days, I need just 10k for the next level and 10 WoF spins! I think there are nice benefits for us holders, and I think it's a nice APY, so I will go for 25% more FUN tokens for a year, and in the meantime, there will be more from WoF spins and gambling! Good time indeed!

How do people even enjoy staking their coins and tokens? I'm confused, yesterday I tried to stake some amount of stable coin aka USDT on Binance Exchange and it is worth 1000$ but the return on this in a year is 95$ lol, I laughed so hard that I almost flipped my laptop, why the heck people doing this?.

People stake money instead of just leaving it and looking at it without growing. At least you earn 95 usd without doing anything.
So, its something. And imagine staking 100 thousand Usd. We can also say. Staking with low APY is only for the rich

Exactly that Cryptoababe, staking with low APY is only for the rich! The math is simple, OP chose 9.5% APY per year, invested $1000 and he got $95 for that! It's something, as you said, without doing anything! It's a stable coin, so no risk of a price drop!
I like to choose riskier staking options, and I must say I am satisfied with that! It's not something we do for a quick profit, I like to stake different coins and it's how I earn them, with a bit of luck one of those coins can do something more in the future!
2344  Economy / Economics / Re: Elon Musk makes offer to buy Twitter on: April 27, 2022, 07:41:50 PM
Was a nice move by Elon Musk to buy Twitter. Paying 44bn USD for it isn't even 20% of his networth and since he likes to hold a lot of his money in liquid assets it shouldn't hurt him much. I am wondering why so many people are against this acquisition. Elon Musk is an active twitter user himself, if he has a new vision for twitter why not give him a chance? It seems all the left wing activities are afraid to lose power on twitter. But Elon already stated he wants to promote freedom of speech on twitter. So we might see a wider spread of different opinion and users can argue against each other. In the end it comes down to the readers to remain critical and not believe everything they read online.

To be honest I thought it will not happen! I followed the news about it, and there were a lot of different stories from all sides, but in the end, he bought it, and now Musk has the main say on Twitter!
I agree with you, this purchase will not hurt him much financially, and yet with some real vision, and I'm sure Musk has it, this investment has great potential! The most interesting question for me is whether Musk will completely open Twitter to crypto and in what way he can do it?! This is probably the most interesting for all of us crypto lovers, and I think there is a good chance that it will happen.
2345  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Where does your country stand ? on: April 27, 2022, 06:43:28 PM
I actually from Philippines and I don't see my country on the list but looking at the complete statistics given above I see that Philippines is top 4 for the house that always win that's why it is not surprising that we are not no the top list of the gamblers lol  Grin no players doesn't want to lose every time and with house that always win it only shows that players in our country is always losing.

Well, this statistic is about "Gaming Losses Per Adult", and as we can see Australia is leading with a reported loss of $1,288.00 per adult, while second place belongs to Singapore with a reported loss of $1,174.00 per adult! You can check more on this link:
https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/countries-that-gamble-the-most.html

So definitely the Philippines are not on the top of the losing list! Of course, if you guys from there win more often than you lose!

https://guardian.ng/sport/top-5-countries-with-the-most-online-casino-gamblers/

Another research from another angle... In which country do people gamble the most?!
1. Canada
2. UK
3. USA
4. New Zealand
5. Japan

Nice article, you can check how these countries got on this list!

Statistics can be fun, but it's not something important! People from all over the world gamble! In listed countries, the minimum paycheck is very high compared with my country, and many other countries, so it's normal for people from these developed countries to gamble more!
2346  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 Round of 16! on: April 27, 2022, 05:50:42 PM
Liverpool vs Villareal, will it end with hope like my bet on Man City yesterday. Because Villareal would basically be unpredictable which made me take the bet for Liverpool. Maybe this will be a slightly dubious bet because Villareal's performance so far in the Champions League is truly unpredictable. I wish Liverpool all the best and don't waste this opportunity to take a safe position early.
Villareal is the biggest surprise in Champions League and they have nothing to lose after all. Furthermore, with all surprise they made so far, nobody can under estimate Villareal. They can make another surprise in semi final against Liverpool because we know Champions League especially in knock out rounds, contains space and chance for surprise.
I think Villareal deserves to be able to win if they continue to show a performance that is still improving. There's nothing wrong with betting, especially if the odds are quite high, it's worth it. I will not doubt the potential of Villareal, even though many favor Liverpool in this match. In this case, Villareal has the ideal opportunity to show that they have quality players to match Liverpool.

I would also like Villarreal to win, they are a nice surprise this season, but the chances are slim! Liverpool's attacking style is well known and I think it will be the same tonight! Did you see this:

Quote
The Villarreal manager, Unai Emery, insists that, having beaten two giants en route to the Champions League semi-final, his team no longer have the element of surprise to help see them through.

Unai Emery is a great strategist, I believe he has something ready for tonight, but will it work on the field against Liverpool we will see!
2347  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Can newbie become rich with trading on: April 26, 2022, 06:34:13 PM
Trading is a vast technical place where everyone trades for profit but cannot succeed there. It doesn't matter who is new or who is experienced. Those who deviate from the determining track will also have to pay the forfeit.

Trading is a two-way street, anyone can become rich by trading, but also the rich can lose everything! This is a game, so people should be careful what they do, as always when money is involved!
Trading is like everything else, whether someone will become successful or not depends on many factors! In the first place, it's the commitment to trade, to learn something, to constantly research, and monitor everything that can affect the crypto market and the prices of coins and tokens! Ambition to achieve something, patience not to make hasty moves... all this should fit in and stick to some rules and strategies day by day!
While some people lose others succeed in making a profit, it's trading! I will say that experience matters a lot when a situation comes and you need to make a decision, most likely you will make a better decision if you have some experience... without it, you can just wild guess and play on the lucky card, but in most cases that not ends well!
2348  Economy / Gambling / Re: Btxwar.com new site on: April 26, 2022, 01:49:30 PM
I would like to test your website, is it fixed with 15 minutes? is there any betting limits such as minimum bet or maximum bet? I like the changing color of the theme, is it also possible to choose other coin maybe Ethereum and other coins to predict? As what I see in the preview it is only Bitcoin available.
Yes right now we only support 15minute fix.
You can place several bets but the amount is fixed $5 $10 $20 $25 $50 $100 $250 $500 $1000 $2500 $5000 $10000.
We only supports btc/usdt however we are working with eth/usdt and soon it will be added to our site.

With that signature, nobody will try your site! I guess nobody from here will try anything you share when they see your signature! Just a friendly piece of advice, start a new thread, but before doing that check some other ANN threads, just to get some ideas about how an ANN thread can/should look! Also, remove that signature and advertise your site, it will be a lot better in every way!

Welcome to the forum , but I think you need to be more transparent and more updating for your luring of support from the community because there are a big competence int his gambling world and I am afraid that you can cope just like that.
try extending your advertising by promotions in different areas and that is to spend for advertising .

Well, there are many things he should do! All he needed to do is to spend some time checking all related threads here on the forum, some of them are real gold for people who wish to learn and develop!
2349  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 Round of 16! on: April 26, 2022, 01:05:34 PM
Today Real Madrid are back against teams from the Premier League this time Manchester City as the challenger
Real Madrid really got a worthy opponent and I think it's not as easy as the team that was defeated before
Honestly I can't predict who will win especially in the semi final the potential of both teams is the same.

It's hard to predict the winner in today's game... I guess City is the favorite, they dominate in the possession of the ball, and they have a great attack, but Real has shown how dangerous it can be against such opponents! That's why I won't try to predict the winner in this game, I'll try to bet on goals! +3 seems like a good bet, maybe even with a combination of both teams to score! I think Real can score, they have shown that they are able to play under heavy pressure, and it is certain that City will try to make a goal difference at home for the next game!

I’m cheering on Real Madrid for purely selfish reasons tonight. I think you can all probably figure my reasoning out but yeah, go Real.

Hopefully King Karim puts City to the sword.

Well, from my perspective it's not impossible for Karim to do exactly that! Last game I won a bet on him to score at any time! Maybe that can be a nice bet again, maybe he is on some crazy scoring streak!
2350  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Justin Sun creates "the most decentralized Stablecoin" on: April 25, 2022, 08:21:23 PM
Justin Sun needs to take the hint. People do not like him, I mean not hate him, but not like him, and nobody really cares about projects that he does. This dude had smart contracts and cheap transactions locked down years and years ago, and nobody cared, things like ADA, SOL, AVAX and the likes are barely getting there, and they somehow managed to get super high.

So, other projects who are not even at a level where Tron was years ago, ended up being higher than Tron way before they reached those levels. There must be a reason for that, if that didn't work, I do not see how his own stablecoin version would end up getting more attention somehow.

You're right, I don't love him, but I don't hate him either! But I do like Tron, it's good for gambling, at least from my perspective, I used it a lot... and I am still getting some as passive income! The price of Tron is the same as before, that's why some people don't like it, Tron didn't make a rise like some others, but I think it's holding pretty nice and stable in the past years! With a bit of patience, there's profit in trading with Tron! Again, from my perspective, I have it and I follow it!

But Justin is a controversial personality! I am not sure what he's up to now, but some of his projects are still around, and he probably have huge funds for some next projects!
2351  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do You Think New Casino Should Partnered With Bounty Managers To Gain Trust? on: April 25, 2022, 07:34:10 PM
For many Bitcointalk users, trust system is very important, so in my opinion hiring experienced users by casinos can have a positive effect. For a long time now, projects have hired bounty managers to create ANN threads in the Altcoin section. I don't see a problem for casinos to start doing this here.
without a good marketing plan it will be difficult for new gambling sites to compete with old and trusted ones, just look at every gambling site handled by hhampuz and yahoo will definitely be a big success. Marketing tricks like this have proven to be effective and worth trying for new gambling sites that want to compete in the market.

In the end, it’s just marketing! Casinos need to enter into different types of marketing, it's how they gain visibility and popularity! On this forum trust rating is important, for some other people it's important Drake who gambles millions... each casino has its own strategy on how to reach the target group!
In this case, the target group is the members of this forum! For sure here the trust rating has a big role and this cooperation between one reputable member and the casino makes a lot of sense! At least for me!
2352  Economy / Economics / Re: What should be a good ROI for a startup? on: April 25, 2022, 06:27:42 PM
Entrepreneurs struggle with their ROI on businesses. Starting a business is not a difficult task but sustaining it becomes challenging. I've seen a numerous companies go bankrupt after good years of sales. Knowing the reason behind is lack of future projections.

According to you, what should be the ROI for newly launched startups?

My views are around 15% per annum but it would take around 6.6 years to earn the initial amount back. Would it be a bad decision?

It doesn't work that way ... if everyone could count on 15% ROI from the beginning then everyone would be a businessman! Depending on the business, there is no ROI in the first few months/years, you can even be in the red until everything starts, here we say "until the wheel start turning"! Like it's hard to make a wheel starts spinning, but once it starts it will be easier! I said months or years need before that, how much exactly depends on what kind of business you plan to start and many other factors! Only when you put the business on its feet profit start coming! Of course, if you did everything well in the beginning!
2353  Economy / Gambling / Re: Crypto Gambling Review Site on: April 25, 2022, 12:26:46 PM
I don't visit cryptocurrency review sites as their judgement are not accurate and their decision influenced by corrupt sites who pay them huge some of money just to get a positive review from them and this can be misleading if a player follow their signal to make decision on site to play on.
Sometimes they can be easily lured to give good content about a particular gambling site. Who knows what they can be upto. I think op needs to add more gambling platform to the queue so gamblers can have as many gambling platforms to select from. I always stick to what I know works best form me rather than going from one gambling review sites to another looking for what does not exist.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5262141.msg59926752#msg59926752  Nomination for Crypto Affiliate of the Year 2022

So rank can be user-generated as well! You check more about it in the link... you can also see they got nominated for "Crypto Affiliate of the Year 2022"! It's not like all review sites are corrupted, actually, some of them are pretty great! I talk about Gosu mostly because he started everything from here 2 years ago and I play under Gosu almost everywhere, except where are my old accounts, before him! So maybe I am a bit biased, but I am sure there are other review sites that are doing an amazing job as well!

In the and what would a review site gain by sending players to "bad" casinos?! The review gets if players are happy! If players are happy they will play under an affiliate link and get some benefits from that, it's one of the ways the review site makes money! With good players base and some high rollers, I guess profit can be pretty nice! But if players are not happy it affects business and earnings in the long run!

Desmong this isn't a topic about casinos, it's but about review sites! At least those that are popular around!
2354  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 Round of 16! on: April 25, 2022, 07:26:42 AM
Manchester City have a better team collective and in my view also a better coach. But Manchester doesn't have a top striker like Benzema. In fact, de Bruyne is City's star player, but Madrid has Modric in midfield. It could well be that City will go out against Madrid. If you can beat PSG with Madrid, you can beat City. They have not always convinced, not even in the Champions League. The last time it was all difficult against Atletico and Atletico should have won that game, while they played with 10 men.
The same was said about Manchester City last season, and yet they won nothing.

This season especially, most recently, Real Madrid has been considered an "underdog" against PSG and then Chelsea but look who went through. The more the so-called better teams think they can beat Real Madrid. The less likely they will go through.

Man City has won their last three duels! The bookmakers are on the side of City, x1.4 and falling... It's true that they are unlucky in CL, and they can't win anything, but can that change this year?!
Many of us underestimated Real this year, I thought PSG would knock them out, especially after the first game! I honestly thought Chelsea had a chance to knock them out, and that didn't happen either! And now the same thing is happening against City... I am not sure what to think, for sure Real is playing good football, and I believe they will give their best in the first game!

With such nice odds on Real, I am thinking about trying a bet on them! They won Chealse, I guess they can do the same with City! After all, City didn't show much against Atletico!

It gives us the chance to take back control of our personal data.

You either have control and you keep yourself or you don't! I guess once you lost control of your personal data there's no going back, it's out there and you can't just "take back control"! Depending on what "info" about you leaked maybe you will have to request some new documents, people had all sorts of problems, it can be really crazy!

So in the digital world security is very important, you simply don't share important stuff just like that, especially not all documents without thinking twice! It's why I don't like KYC generally, I avoid it whenever I can... but if I have to verify myself I am checking the service twice before I do that!
2356  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: April 24, 2022, 08:07:06 AM
Because Inter has been won against Roma then win result is mandatory to Milan today but they will facing tough opponent Lazio and it is big challenge for Milan to beat Lazio at their home ground because as far i know Lazio were unbeatable for home matches so it won't be easy for Milan to get full points from this match but first met from both of teams showing Milan can win with big score so there is a chance for them to win the match

Nice game and clear victory for Inter, now they are first! I won my bet, both teams to score & over 2.5 goals... I thought that Roma can do more in this game, but Inter was too strong!
I am thinking about the same bet for Lazio vs Milan! Milan desperately needs points, but it's also an opportunity for Lazio to overtake Roma for that 5th place! I expect a big fight for points and goals, so this bet looks very nice!

I also have a bet for Fiorentina to win today! Fiorentina has 56 points like Lazio, but a game less than them! Two games less than Roma who has 58 points! They are playing against Salernitana, and I believe they don't have any chance of surviving in Serie A! So I think Fiorentina must win today, it will be an interesting game and a chance for them to overtake Roma and Lazio!
2357  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Crypto wealth can only be built in bear market on: April 23, 2022, 10:12:34 PM
I really agree that big profits can be obtained when buying coins whose prices are declining or a bear market, but if you choose a new coin or project I think the chances of getting a profit are very small, but if you buy a coin that is at the top 10 CMC then the opportunity to become rich is very wide open.

But bear and bull markets appear constantly in the crypto space! So the chances of making a profit are higher! Sticking with top 10 coins can just make your investment safer, but I believe that many people risked with low cap coins and made a profit with them! In some cases insanely big profit! After all, this is crypto, and every year we have some coins that go over x1k, and some of them go even higher!
You can build your crypto portfolio in a bear market, but just if you played a good move in a bull market! And vice versa!

Thanks for the review iv4n, I am looking for some new casinos to try out and as this site seems to be pretty interesting, I might give it a serious try!

Well, it's a good casino, I was lucky and I made a bit more than x3 of my deposit playing slots, I decided to try how withdraws are working, I have to say I'm impressed with the speed of withdrawal, on the BSC network in less than a minute I had money in my wallet!

as long as I play in gambling, I have never played poker, this will be my first experience to play poker at OWL.Games
and I'm free to visit websites without having to use a VPN
this will be my faforit

What's happening with that poker anyway? Is it working? I tried a few times, and it loads but I don't see any players...

What do you think is the best game/ sports to gamble on ? Do you do it for winning?

The best gambling game is the one you enjoy the most, to play or watch others play! It can be a sport or it can be a crash or a slot, and lucky-based games can be very exciting if you like something like that!
I believe we all love to win! I am one of those who play to win, but you also need to know your possibilities and chances! I don't make drama when I lose, I just learned to handle losses, and I know what I'm risking and how much I can lose! That comes with experience!

...
Are the ideas in the article according to you correct? How many times you usually win in a game of chance+skills?

The article is the whole book! I believe again some philosophy with a lot of generalizations, and again we are all individuals who make their own way! I never liked psychology books, too much talking about nothing!
In games of chance, we win less or more often, I guess it depends on what games we play and what odds we are chasing!
2360  Economy / Gambling / Re: Do you prefer lots of promotions over better RTP? on: April 23, 2022, 11:39:44 AM
I doubt a serious gambler would care about the promotions and other rewards. Those are peanuts for serious gamblers...

This is not true! Serious gamblers care about promotions, they have an advantage with a big bankroll!

Those will only attract low quality users. The RTP factor is much more important for them. They would all prefer to play on casinos with games that have high RTP because in the long run it is the RTP factor that determines how fast they will go bankrupt. On other hand, those who seldom gambles wouldn't care much because the RTP factor doesn't affect them much. They would prefer promotions and other rewaeds.

RTP factor is less important than the choice of a casino! Different casinos have different RTP for many games, but I see people gambling in all the places, and when you check all the ongoing promotions in any casino you will see how much you need to wager to take some higher place and some reward for that! You can find many serious gamblers competing in different promotions in various casinos!


It is found to be beneficial if these promotions are reliable. Many gamblers have been tricked by these promotions making them deposit more and lose more.

If you play in reputable casinos all the promotions are reliable! I haven't heard of a case where players have been cheated for promotion prizes, at least not in any trustworthy casino around!
Nobody tricks you to deposit more and lose more except your own mind!
