2361  Economy / Speculation / Re: [POLL] Will Bitcoin dip below $40K? on: January 09, 2022, 12:01:16 PM
Yes,the price will go below 40K USD.
The sellers will keep selling,while the buyers will keep waiting for a lower price.
There are no bullish news and more FUD news are flooding the mainstream media recently.
The global financial markets will be going down,due to the Omicron hysteria and the high energy prices in Europe and Asia.
I hear rumors that the Delta and Omicron waves will merge into a Deltacron wave.The mainstream media and the governments will keep spreading more panic and hysteria.
The Bitcoin price will start growing after the covid panic is over and after the majority of the crypto traders finally start buying the dip. 
2362  Economy / Economics / Re: Euro zone inflation hit a new record high of 5% in December on: January 09, 2022, 07:52:45 AM
The Eurozone inflation heavily depends of the electricity and natural gas prices.
Germany is the biggest electricity consumer in the EU and they will shut down their nuclear reactors.
I assume that all the solar power plants in Germany will start working on full scale during the spring and summer of 2022,therefore increasing the electricity production and lowering the prices in Germany,which will influence the prices in the entire EU.
The natural gas prices will stay high until the end of 2022.The natural gas reserves of European countries are full at 75% and the prices will start dropping when they hit levels of above 90%.
A 5% inflation isn't such a big deal.Inflation hitting levels above 10% will become a problem for the households and the economy,but I don't think that the inflation in Europe will be higher than 7.5% during 2022.

I can't load bch.games.
I'm getting a totally black screen.What's wrong?Is the problem in my browser or maybe there are some restricted countries?
I will try to load the website on my Android device later.
What's the point of calling your crypto casino bch.games?
Do you want to attract all the Bitcoin Cash(BCH) fans?They aren't that many and I'm sure that most of the Bitcoin Core supporters don't like BCH.
I thought that you are going to accept BCH only,but you are accepting multiple crypto deposits.
The name of your casino is kinda misleading. Grin
Perhaps you should think about changing your marketing a little bit in order to  attract a wider audience.
Good luck with this project,OP.

2364  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Everyone will receive a paper wallet in their post. Then what? on: January 09, 2022, 07:14:02 AM
Probably 95% of the people will just throw away the paper wallets.The remaining 5% probably won't even bother using those wallets.
It's a weird idea,but I kinda get the point.
I remember that a few years ago,the national lottery in my country was sending free lottery tickets in people's mail boxes.
This has nothing to do with your example,but I get the idea from a marketing perspective.
The people will get something for free,which will get them hooked.
The problem with your idea is that the people will get some totally worthless for free,which won't work.
They have to somehow see the value in what they are getting for free.
2365  Economy / Gambling / Re: rant coinpoker.com on: January 07, 2022, 07:02:10 AM
OK,cryptocurrency transaction fees might be high.
Why aren't you using fiat casinos?Maybe the fees for fiat deposits are way lower?
Are the deposit fees on coinpoker high or it's just the transaction fees on the blockchain?
If it's the first option,then putting the blame on the top 20 coins is simply stupid.
It's it's the second option,then you should just use a fiat casino.You have alternatives.Whining and complaining doesn't help.

Poker doesn't require 200 IQ.The vast majority of the people around the world aren't even close to having 200 IQ.Having an IQ between 120 and 135 means that you are very smart.Having IQ between 150 and 200 means that you are a total genius.I really doubt that you have 200 IQ,by judging on your posts on the forum.
Good luck with your poker adventures. Grin
2366  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: A quick reminder from Eric Adams, mayor of the City of New York. on: January 07, 2022, 06:38:32 AM
I couldn't care less about the opinions of the New York City major in regards to Bitcoin.
The winter season(January-February) isn't the best time for Bitcoin,the 2021 winter was the only exception.
The Bitcoin price dropping makes me sad,but I can't do anything about it.They only thing we can do right now is the HODL and waiting for another bullish market in the next months,or maybe in 2023.
There are no bullish new,which can pump the price.The FUD will keep growing.
Perhaps the situation will change during the spring,when the world will overcome another wave of the pandemic.
2367  Economy / Economics / Re: Covid crisis leaves Sri Lanka on brink of bankruptcy on: January 06, 2022, 11:54:11 AM
Working hard in a poor and underdeveloped country isn't the same as working hard in a rich western country.
Imagine working hard for a ridiculously low salary,while having to deal with rising inflation and increasing debt payments.
Inflation in the western countries is way lower and the salaries are way bigger,compared to Sri Lanka.
The western countries don't have big problems with their debts,because they can print more euro and dollars and pay their debts.The value of the USD and the euro isn't collapsing,despite the massive money printing.
I really hope that Sri Lanka will find a way out of this debt trap.The government will have to negotiate better conditions with China and try to postpone a part of the debt repayments.
 
2368  Economy / Economics / Re: 2022 Savings and investment plan on: January 06, 2022, 11:23:02 AM
It seems to me that life gets harder to predict and making long term plans about the future might not be as effective as it used to be.You can't make rational decisions in an irrational environment.
The world is going crazy right now(or maybe I'm just watching too much TV,it gives me social anxiety). Grin
I'm not going to make any long term investments in 2022.I'll just stick with BTC.
OP,how do you plan to diversify your assets and risk?Do you plan to buy real estate or maybe gold and silver?
Inflation is going to be the biggest issue for 2022.The pandemic might be the second big issue,because it might cause new lockdowns,increased unemployment rates and new stimulus plans.Nobody knows what will happen...

top bookmakers including Sbobet, CMD368, Pin88, ps3838, 3ET, Pinnacle Sports, Singbet, Penta88, Pasa888, CasinoOnline, Cryptoplay365, Fair777,Maxbet, BetISN, Oddswar and many more...

Are these "top" bookmakers really that "top"? Grin
I haven't heard anything about most of them.
This is a pretty interesting idea.Creating an account on sports book/casino will also create accounts in all those various sports book platforms.I wonder how will you handle all the KYC procedures for all these accounts(if there are any).

It would be nice if you buy copper membership and hire someone to make you a good announcement thread on the Gambling forum.Your current forum thread is a boring wall of text,which doesn't look professional.

2 days without answers. I think that soon we shall see some other new bet365broker or smth about it. Creating scam website from the template takes about a hour of time. +some hosting works - 2-3 hours. So it is not a problem to create a hundred of such "casinos". If the profit will be about even $50 from every site - it will be nice business and new money for new sites. Just don`t lose you money.

Yep,the OP's website and his Terms of Service look kinda shady.
I really hope that 100% of the gamblers on the forum aren't that stupid and they won't fall into such "fake crypto casino template" scams.
I also really hope that OP is legit and not a scammer.
Quantity can't beat quality in this type of gambling scam.The scammer can create thousands of similar looking casinos,but everything would be pointless,if nobody trusts those fake casinos.

2370  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Internet is down on Kazahstan, Bitcoin Hashrate drooped, Price affected? on: January 06, 2022, 06:35:26 AM
The news coming from Kazakhstan(and the news about the Federal Reserve) definitely have some FUD value and they can definitely cause some panic across a part of the crypto traders.
Having the hashrate dropped isn't such a big deal,because the mining difficulty will be adjusted after a awhile.
Internet in Kazakhstan won't be down forever,but I'm not sure about the political situation in this country.
Perhaps the future government of Kazakhstan won't be so Bitcoin/crypto friendly and it might try to kick out all the Bitcoin/crypto miners of the country.Mostly because of the usual BTC hater arguments-wasting energy,damaging the environment,bla bla bla...
However,I'm just speculating about this.
2371  Economy / Speculation / Re: Elsavador President Predicting $100,000 Bitcoin price looks like another joke on: January 05, 2022, 11:48:40 AM
The president of El Salvador is a die hard Bitcoin maximalist(for some reason).
I don't know who or what had such a great impact on Bukele's vision about Bitcoin.
Anyway,a 100K USD prediction isn't a joke.In the middle of 2020,the Bitcoin price was around 10-13K USD and predictions about the price hitting 30-40K or 50-60K USD were considered a joke.Bitcoin hit a new ATH at 69K,proving that many people were wrong.
I'm not the biggest optimist about Bitcoin "hitting the moon",but 100K USD is totally achievable and the price will definitely reach that historical level,sooner or later.I think that the 100K USD peak will the surpassed somewhere around 2023 or 2024.
2372  Other / Off-topic / Re: Theranos and the limits of Hype on: January 05, 2022, 07:25:28 AM
I find similarities between the Silicon Valley startup industry and the crypto industry(all crypto projects,DeFi,ICOs,IEOs,NFTs,etc).
Both have a really low success ratio,which is normal for high risk industries.99% of the crypto and Silicon Valley startups end up as a failure or a scam.Only 1% end up being successful and growing.
Both industries rely heavily on building hype and having lots of wild promises,in order to raise funds.
Lots of manipulative sociopaths are CEOs of both crypto and Silicon Valley startups.Elizabeth Holmes is one of them.Theranos is a total scam,nothing more and nothing less.
All those "angel" investors buying shares in startup companies know that their money will be wasted 99% of the time,but they are betting money on that 1% "Unicorn" companies,which will later turn into the new Facebook,Google or Apple.

The website looks nice and clean.
I curious about this project having an .onion website.I've never seen a crypto gambling website on the forum having a darkweb .onion version of the website.There might be some crypto casino having .onion,but I've never seen one so far.
What's the point of this?Attracting active darknet surfers?Trying to keep the gamblers as anonymous as possible?
Don't get me wrong.There's nothing wrong with having an .onion website.Even Facebook has .onion version.
I usually don't trust minesweeper games since I've lost several dollars on satoshimines a few years ago. Grin
Anyway,good luck with this project,OP.
2374  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Billionaire Chamath Palihapitiya says Visa / Mastercard biggest failures 2022 on: January 05, 2022, 06:40:46 AM
VISA/Mastercard are "too big to fail" at this point. Grin
If a competitor has a competitive edge against VISA/Mastercard,they could simply buy that competitor.
If the crypto industry has a competitive edge against traditional fiat credit/debit card payments,then VISA/Mastercard will just adopt crypto/blockchain payments(if the authorities allow them to do so).
"If you can't beat them,just join them. Grin"

Facebook bought Instagram and Whatsapp,because they were competing against Facebook,right? Grin

I agree that DeFi projects and the cryptocurrency payment infrastructure aren't really matured but they have a lot of potential.However,the vast majority of the people will stick to what they are familiar with-credit and debit cards.The crypto industry must become way more convenient and user-friendly,in order to get the attention of the "average Joe".
2375  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitmex is sending a physical bitcoin to the moon in summer of 2022 on: January 04, 2022, 12:44:15 PM
This is supposed to be some kind of marketing/PR move.Right?
Other than that,it's a totally pointless idea.
They are going to waste a bunch of money and resources to send a Bitcoin to the moon...So what?
What's the benefit for the company,the country or the human civilization in general?
Can't they use the money and resources(and the one Bitcoin they're going to send) for some charitable project that will actually help real people?This will have a better marketing/PR result than sending one physical BTC to the moon.
2376  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ English Premier League Season: 2021/2022 on: January 04, 2022, 12:24:29 PM
It is really unbelievable for me to see Manchester United having a huge problem against Wolves. Don't get me wrong, of course. I don't mean that Wolves are a weak team in this league. It is the opposite. They can make surprises against the biggest teams also as they have capable players. But the main problem was that Manchester United performed very badly. And this caused them to get an unexpected 1-0 loss in Old Trafford. A team like Manchester United should be able to do more than this. If they performed in a great way but still lost, then I would regard them as unlucky. But it was not the case obviously. I hope that Rangnick can make this team more powerful in time especially before the end of the season if it's possible.  Grin

Rangnick should be building a better team for the 2022-2023 season.
This season is basically wasted for Manchester United.Their only target is to reach the fourth place to qualify for the UEFA Champions League in the next season.
Very weak game against Wolves indeed.I was expecting Ronaldo to score again,but this time he could be barely seen on the field.
Maybe the Man United owners will have to spend millions of pounds to buy Levandowski or Haaland in the next transfer market.
Phil Jones isn't good enough for Manchester United,so Rangnick will have to buy better defenders as well.

Who should be blamed for “that”, President Erdogan? You want everyone to hold the Turkish Lira, while your cabal inflate and deflate the currency according to your “mood”.

The Turkish government/central bank doesn't deliberately inflate or deflate the Turkish lira.
They were trying to stabilize the lira,but they are using the wrong approach.Lowering down the interest rates and pushing more money into the economy and finance sector will always backfire.
The confusing behavior of the central bank and the government also made more people to lose fate in them and to sell their lira for other currencies and financial assets.
This is not how you build trust in a country's national currency.This is the exact opposite.
Perhaps Erdogan have lost his mind and/or he's too old to govern the country.I hope that the situation will normalize soon.
2378  Economy / Economics / Re: LEGO Sets Are Better Investments than Stocks, Bonds or Even Gold on: January 04, 2022, 07:33:31 AM
Really interesting article.
I remember having LEGO as a kid,but I don't remember where did I put those LEGO toys.They are probably thrown away in the garbage.This is like throwing a laptop with your Bitcoin wallet on the hard drive. Grin
I'm pretty sure that the company,which produced LEGO toys will find an alternative to plastics.
I'm hearing lots of news about companies producing new kinds of materials,which are more environmentally friendly and easy to recycle.Sooner or later,plastics will be replaced by a another material.

Quote
Maybe if the apocalypse happens, people won't exchange gold or silver. They'll simply exchange lego sets as a form of currency. It appears lego sets appreciate at a greater sustained percentage than precious metals, anyway.

If the apocalypse happens,people won't bother exchanging anything,because they will be dead.


2379  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: prediction betting platform pros and cons? on: January 04, 2022, 07:12:27 AM
Cryptocurrency price prediction should stay in the crypto trading industry,not in the gambling industry.
If you want to make money by predicting cryptocurrency prices,then there are plenty of tools on the crypto trading platforms-leverage trading,Bitcoin futures,contracts for a difference,etc.
I don't see any point of creating some kind of crypto casino or bookmaker website,where the gamblers should bet money and try to predict the future cryptocurrency prices.
Such casino would have to compete against all cryptocurrency trading platforms and most of these platforms are already established and have a good reputation and thousands of users.
Betting on some events like the US presidential election can be done on fiat betting platforms.
I don't believe that a crypto betting website would successfully compete against the big fiat betting platforms on this gambling niche.
2380  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin celebrate 13th year birthday with new all time high harsh rate on: January 04, 2022, 06:50:19 AM
It's strange that I remember days ago I saw a thread talking about it, I can't find the thread, anyway all people's eyes are focused on the price, which is in a very dangerous area that if it falls will trigger panic selling, as long as satoshi doesn't show up every year when bitcoin is celebrated, people will be asking the same question again: where the hell is satoshi. but as i said now people are worried about price drop

Happy BDay BTC

Can you believe it's been 13 years already?

time passed quickly

By "people" you mean newbies and inexperienced traders,right?
No serious Bitcoiner is going to be "worried" about the Bitcoin price.If the price drops,that's OK.
If there's panic selling,that's OK as well.Just buy the dip and start waiting for the upcoming bull run.
The question "Where is Satoshi?" doesn't matter to 99% of the Bitcoin community.Satoshi can't influence the hashrate.His possible appearance might pump the Bitcoin price for a awhile,but this will be a short term impact.I'm 99,99% sure that Satoshi will never come back and his identity will remain hidden forever.
Happy Bitcoin Day to all the Bitcoiners around the world!
