I agree that there are some gamblers who enjoy the experience of getting a big win once in a week because they just play to earn some money and when they get a good win then they don't really care a lot about any more time with gambling. Those gamblers just give up on gambling when they get the desired amount or more than that, and those gamblers are often successful in gambling.

I don't think that there are any casino platforms that makes you win all of the time because if they do that then that thing isn't fair and trusting such casino's is a very bad decision. Only the casinos that want to scam people can follow such practice because their main intention is to fool out everyone not to make them winners.

They often allow someone to face good wins so that the person could add more money and invite more friends, and at those times the casino will make the user face losses instead of wins. The shady casinos will always do something like that, and the ones who trust those casinos will have to face huge losses.

I agree with you that Rehab has the power to stop someone from addiction and it can greatly reduce the levels of addiction. I also agree that some of those addicts who have gone through rehabilitation can still get addicted to gambling once again, but I highly doubt that they will have the same levels of intensity or addiction levels after going through rehabilitation. The addiction is a powerful thing and that's why rehab centers often have a hard process for the addicts so that they can give up on their addiction. However, I still think that rehab with some strong emotional bound can cause huge changes in someone's mindset and that person can somehow control his/her addiction to some extent.

I don't think that any reputed casino will stop you from withdrawing your money even if you didn't placed any bets, but yes if you have joined a promo and then you wanted to withdraw your money without any wager then in that case the casinos will definitely freeze your withdrawals. I should also clear out that those casinos require KYC for huge sums of money, and they won't allow withdrawals without KYC verification. I know that with small amount of money there isn't a need for KYC but for huge amounts KYC is important.

I think it's morally and ethically wrong to sell your wife's jewelry without her own consent even if you can earn quite huge profits by selling her jewelry. Investing in Bitcoin is a great thing but only for the ones who have spare money because selling your assets for purchasing of Bitcoin isn't recommended at all, and anyone who does that can face huge problems due to the volatility of the market, and also because of someone less understanding of the technical aspects of it.

An addict can give up gambling if he/she gets a good treatment from those whom he/she cares about. Those addicts can only stop such a thing if they get impacted by emotions of the ones whom they love, but still the loved ones would have to show them that they really need them, and that's the only way to make a gambling addict give up on the habit of gambling.

That's true that those gambling addicts need self-determination to end up gambling but that self-determination can only come when they feel that the ones who truly love them are in need of them, and they would harm those with their bad habits if they continue gambling. Love is a very powerful emotion, and the ones who are influenced by love often tend to give up on any addiction.

I agree that gambling addiction is a quite severe thing but I don't thing the analogy is correct because in a sense blood can be removed from body and we all have seen that with blood donors when they have donated the blood out of their body for the ones who needed that blood. The gambling addiction can also be fixed, but it's a very tough task to make an addicted person to stop gambling because you know such users would try their best to continue gambling even if you put them behind bars.

I only effective strategy to stop those gamblers from gambling is to make them fall in love with something that's better than gambling and with that thing they can forget other things. For some people true love is that thing because a gambler often searches for a true love and when they can't find that then they start building that love with gambling. For such a person love can cure gambling addition and it has been tested out that strong emotion of love and empathy can eliminate additions.

Bitcointalk username: SamReomo

This is my review about Mixin Safe and in this review I will describe in detail each feature of this amazing system. The review will describe everything in detail as I try to cover as much I possibly can. I will soon add the screenshots of the review because at time time I'm having some technical difficulties due to shifting to another home.

The Mixin safe website

I have visited the website of Mixin safe and the experience was quite interesting. The exact URL of the site was safe.mixin.zone, and I have visited the website using my Android based smartphone and there wasn’t a lag or delay browsing the site on that device. When I visited the website there was a button named “Get Started” and when I tapped it, I was taken to another page where the information about the Safe was shown in detail. The information include following text “Prepare Owner Wallet, Prepare Members Wallet, Set Mixin Messenger PIN, Add Mixin Messenger Contacts, Sign in Mixin Safe,” and when I scrolled down I found frequently asked questions as well. I have visited the website for sometime and after that I decided to go further and test the applications.


Mornin Key

Mornin Key was the application I used to approve my safe because I didn’t had access to complete Bitcoin core in order to install the PC version of the safe. I download and installed the APK file of the Mornin Key on my Android based smartphone. I recommend the Mixin team to make the Play Store and App Store version of the application to be free so that users would be more happy to install this application. However, for someone like me a free APK is enough to install an application.

Downloading of Mornin key

When I visited the website of the Mornin Key which was mornin.one, the website interface was similar to the Mixin Safe’s original site, and I didn’t gave further time to browse it in detail because I was basically there to download the Mornin Key. I scrolled all the way down to the bottom of the site and from there I clicked on Mornin Key option, and within a second I was taken to another page where I had the option to download Mornin Key either from Apple App Store or from Google Play Store, and when I clicked on the Play Store one I saw that the Application wasn’t for free. I have never used any paid application because I have never had any purchase on Play Store, and that’s why I revisited the website of Mornin key, and download the APK file from that page. Once the file was download then I installed it for free without any issue, and I began testing of the application.




Testing of the Mornin Key and Setting Passcode

I installed the Application of my smartphone Poco M3 pro with just 4 GB ram and there wasn’t any issue during installation, and then tapped the app icon to launch it. When the app was launched I had to create a new account and for that I clicked on “Create a new account” button and I was taken to a window where I had to write my account name. I used my Bitcointalk name for the account and then tapped the “Create” button. Soon after that I was taken to another window where I had two options “Use Biometric” or “Use Passcode”, I have selected the Passcode option, and there appeared another window where I had to set a 6 digit passcode to protect my data. I have selected the 6 digit passcode and it asked me to retype the passcode and I have retyped the passcode once again, and within a second my account was created. After that process a pop-up window appeared that asked me to “Secure the account,” and for that it had an option to select a Mnemonic Phrase. I tapped on Start button on that window and it asked me to write my passcode to unlock Mornin key, and after writing the code it gave me a Mnemonic code that I saved instantly, and then I tapped on Next button. After that it asked me to confirm the Mnemonic code and I confirmed it without any issue, and now I was ready to test Mixin Messenger.





Mixin Messenger and Setting of Pin

In order to test the Mixin Messenger I also used the same Android based smartphone, and I have gone with the same route of installing the APK file directly instead of going with the Play Store one. The installation was pretty smooth, and after the installation I tapped on the Mixin messenger icon to launch the application and it was launched without any lag or errors. Once the app was launched it asked me to write my phone number in order to create the account, and I entered my real phone number to get the verification code, but unfortunately after so many tries and waiting for a long time, I was still unable to get the code on my phone. The code wasn’t coming on my number and that’s why I decided to go with a throwaway number which was already allowed by Royse to be used during registration.  I tried to register my account with a throwaway number and I received a 4 digit code on that number without any issue but after confirming the code I found that someone has already created a mixin account using that number, and after that I tried to log out the account, but unfortunately I never found a log out button even after searing it for 10 minutes, and each time when I tried to load the Mixin messenger the account was already logged in on my app. I decided to “clear all data” of the app so that I can somehow be able to recreate another account and fortunately that worked for me. I have done the process on many throwaway numbers and most of them already were used to create an account by someone, but finally I found a number which was fresh, and I verified my account using that number.






After that I was taken to a window where I was asked to write my name, and I have written my Bitcointalk account name once again this time and tapped of next arrow. After that step I was taken to a window where I had to create a new wallet for me, and for that I clicked on continue button. After that it asked me to create a 6 digit pin, and I have written my 6 digit pin and clicked on start, and I have to reconfirm the pin for 4 times if I remember and then a small pop-up message appeared “Set PIN successfully,” and a some messages were given by team Mixin. I clicked on that tab and read those messages which were basically welcome messages, and some guideline messages.

Testing of Mixin

After that was done, I started testing the app. I first tapped on the left down icon on the app that was somehow similar to a lock type of icon, and once I tapped that then I was taken to a page where I had the option to send or receive crypto-currencies. I decided to deposit some money to test the app’s functions and out of all available crypto-currencies I went with Lite Coin as that’s the one which I always prefer because of low fees. I sent only $5 worth of Litecoin from my wallet and after 12 confirmations the Lite coin appeared on my messenger wallet. After that I added random contacts in my contact list to test the app, the contacts were added. I sent them some messages, but got no replies from those contacts.  I should also mention that I had transferred the $2 from my mixin messenger by reading the QR code of the wallet and then sending money to that wallet was easy. As soon as the transaction was completed the MixPay message appeared in my chat. After the purchase I had only $2.94 worth of Lite coin left on my account. I gave it a try to withdraw the money, but the fee was too high at $1.84 per transaction, and after seeing the fee I decided to deposit $5 more into my account. The deposit process was just like the previous one and it appeared on my wallet after 12 confirmations.
Now I tried to send some of my Lite coin to the ones in my contacts, and the first transaction I send was just 0.0001 LTC and it was sent very fast without any issues. After that I send another transaction worth of 0.001 LTC to another contact and that was sent instantly like the previous one.    





Creation of Safe

Now it was time to create my safe and for that I used my Mornin Key app to scan the QR code. I have now scanned the QR code of mixin safe from its website and authenticate the Mixin Safe Service to get access to my safe on the website. After that I have purchased the standard plan of the site which costs $2 dollars, and with that plan I was able to create my own safe. The standard plan to use the safe cost $2 dollars as of this day and may later be reduced or increased depends on the decision of the mixin, but I really recommend to reduce the cost of basic plan to $1 or even lower then that to attract new customers. After that was done and my account Samreomo was approved as a member of the case then I decided to deposit some money into the case.





                  
Connecting my safe and depositing money into it

Now it was time to approve some transactions using Mornin Key and for that I had to scan the QR code of my Safe with Mornin Key application. I scanned the QR code of my safe and approved it with Mornin Key app, and during approval I was required one again to enter my passcode, and the safe was approved instantly. After that I decided to deposit some of the Lite coin in my safe and for that I had to add the wallet number of the safe which I have added using mixin messenger once again and then I sent just 0.0001 LTC as first deposit to the site. The deposit was sent after sometime, but the fee was too high for that transaction. I just deposited 0.0001 LTC and the fee was 0.02 LTC which was quite higher than the transaction itself, and after that I decided to sent 0.02 LTC as my next transaction, and that transaction also had 0.02 LTC as fee. The fee was higher then other exchanges and that’s why I got curious that why the fee was so high as compare to the exchanges. For that reason I had to contact their Customer Care service.






Mixin Customer Care service      

Now it was time to ask some questions from the customer care service. I posted the message that why the fee of the transactions made with Lite coin were higher with mixin wallet from other exchanges? And, within few seconds I got some replies from the customer care of the mixin. They have explained the reason for higher fees, and I must say that it really made sense so that I thank them for the information they gave me. I must say that the customer service is quite good and responsive and they are always there to help you with their assistance.



Withdrawing Money from My Safe

After contacting the customer support now it was time to withdraw my Lite coin from the Safe, and for that reason I used my own Lite coin wallet address to withdraw coins into it. To do that I clicked on transactions button on my account page, and at the transaction page and I selected SamReomo safe, and after that I clicked on next button. After that the next window appeared in that window I pasted my wallet address and selected the amount that I was going to withdraw, and then clicked on the next button once again. Now I was taken to another page named summary and from that page I clicked on Create button, and I was taken to next page where I clicked on Approve button. A pop-up appeared where the member of the safe had to approve the transaction with a QR code to scan, I scanned the QR code using my mixin messenger and the transaction was approved. After that the final window appeared and at that window I also clicked on Approve button, and this time I need to scan the QR code with Mornin Key application. I have scanned it with Mornin Key and the transaction was approved, and soon it was completed. After a few minute I received the Lite coin In my wallet.






Setting Emergency Contact

Now it was time to have my emergency contact and for that I had tried on all of those contacts that I added, but none of them added me back as a friend and for that reason I was unable to add any of those as emergency contact. I was worried that how can I fulfill this requirement of the review and sudden I got an idea to create another mixin account on my brother’s smartphone, and for that I took my brother’s smart phone which had similar specs like the one I used. I created the account in the similar way that I used to create my original account. Once the account was created fully I added it as a friend by searching it with the help of its mixin id, and then I added my account as a friend on it in the same way. Now, I added this account as my emergency contact and I got the code from it and entered it to make a my emergency contact. The operation was done successfully and I had faced no issue at all. I must say that adding an emergency contact was a hard task, but still I have completed it successfully.
   
Withdrawing money from Mixin to my wallet

I decided to give mixin a try by withdrawing the money into my personal wallet. For that I have added my personal Lite coin wallet and requested a withdrawal using mixin messenger. I have withdrawn 0.0065869 worth of LTC to check that what happens, and fortunately I got my withdrawal without any issues, but once again the fee for the withdrawal was 0.02 LTC, but since I knew that why the fee was so high, and that’s why I didn’t care about that.

My Suggestion

Although the Mixin safe is a quite useful system but it needs some changes in order to be more useful for the users. The first suggestion I want to give is that the Mixin team should reduce the costs of the plans because many users won’t be happy to begin with a system that starts with $2 as basic plan. I would also advise Mixin team to make the Mornin Key app free on Play Store as well on App Store because many people don’t trust the applications that are installed from outside of the Play Store or App Store, and those people also consider such apps as suspicious. I find it okay to register an account using a phone number because most of the messenger apps also require phone verification, but still it would be better to allow the users to create accounts with e-mail address, however it isn’t necessary. Finally, I would recommend Mixin team to reduce the fee for withdrawals because the fee is very high and for those accounts who have less amount of crypto won’t be able to use it with those high fees.

Conclusion

Mixin safe is the most secure and useful safe for all those users who want to secure their crypto-currencies, and I believe that it is very important for everyone who wants high level of security. My experience with this system was really good and I have never faced any issue by using the safe. Anyone who is uses this application for one time would love to use it forever because the system is the safest one in the market, and so far my experience has been really good I must say. Anyone who loves to make their crypto safe can easily rely on Mixin safe because this thing is among the best one in the market.

I also have a similar habit of not ignoring any user because I don't really care about the ones who often do shit-posting or use bad words in conversations because in life if we have to face such people then why not on this forum? As far as I know that we often try to ignore the users whom we don't trust or who can cause some problems for us. I would rather not reply to the ones who do shit-posts rather than ignoring them because it's not necessary to ignore all those whom you don't like.

Now back to the OP, I don't think that new patch would solve that issue, and it isn't a bad thing to view Avatar and personal text of the ignored users because the Avatar and personal text doesn't really matter a lot when you're not reading a reply done by the users that you added in your ignore list.

It is one of the best ways for Motivation ever and it's true at the same time. The comment is very true and we all know that, and yes instead of wasting a lot of money on our eating habits we can save a little amount of money each day or week and spend that on Bitcoin. I know that no body will get rich by investing such amount of money on Bitcoin, but still something is always better than nothing, and the ones who invest some amount of their money on Bitcoin will have a better future as compare to the ones who spends that money on unnecessary things.

I know that there are people who won't be spending more than $2 to $5 per day on the food or other items because they live in areas where they don't earn a lot of money and that's why they can't spend a lot of on food or other items, but the ones who spend $10 or more per day on their food should learn a good lesson from this comment, and they should try to reduce their eating expenses and invest a little amount of their money on Bitcoin at least.

I think there are only few members who do that and that's their right so no one can stop them from doing that. I don't think that deleting one's posts and making post to merit ratio higher would give someone edge over others when it comes to signature campaigns. A campaign manager often tries to select those members in his/her campaign that can write well constructed content which can help a campaign to get more attention of the forum users. For example a user having 1000+ merits having only 700 posts which are well constructed while another user having 1000+ merits having more than 15k+ unconstructed posts. In this case the one with 1000+ merits and 700 posts would get high priority to be accepted in a campaign than the one with 15k+ unconstructed posts.

The mangers often look for those participants that can be valuable for a campaign, and they try to avoid the fact that how many merits they have earned unless the funder of the campaign demands the members with higher merits only. I don't think that a campaign manager cares a lot about number of posts of a user when selecting him/her in a campaign because most of the campaign managers want those users who can produce good quality posts during the running time of a campaign, and there isn't any issue with their previous posts because most of the previous posts can be considered dead if they aren't in a active thread anymore.

That's my own opinion, however the managers might consider other factors as well. I'm quite sure that each manager who wants to run a successful campaign may give priority to those posters who try to make well constructed posts that can help solve the issues of the other users. And, yes if a user who makes constructed posts can post more than the requirements of the campaign then that's a plus point, and most of the campaign managers appreciate such users with bonuses.

Well, they don't really care about any bad comments because they are more than happy by running their shady business and so far no one has been able to stop them from doing that. I'm quite sure that they will continue doing their shady business for a long time and they won't really care about anyone who makes negative comments about them. I don't know why still the gamblers join such sites and try their luck on those sites which are known as scams and shady businesses.

I think that they get those gamblers only because of those influencers who have just sold their souls because of money that they get from them. However, I'm quite sure that knowledgeable gamblers would never fall into such scams because they are quite aware about those casinos and they do their research before joining a casino.

Well, I must say that Bitcoin has been amazing for me and only because of Bitcoin and this community I'm having a better life than I have ever expected. This forum as well as Bitcoin has totally changed my life by showing me the possible ways to earn money, I must say that I'm very thankful to this community and Bitcoin for everything that I currently have.

My financial life has been changed entirely after getting into Bitcoin, and I'm currently living a happy life without any financial issues. I know that I'm by no way a person who is rich, but because of Bitcoin and this forum I have found many good ways to earn enough money to enjoy my life without financial issues. I truly love Bitcoin and Bitcointalk, and I will love those forever because those two have really made my life a better life and I'm very thankful to them.

I don't think that a trader needs to stop for getting three, four or even more winning trades because if a trader is having a well developed strategy based on technical indicators and other trading tools then that trader doesn't need to wait for another long time because as soon as the strategy and its requirements are met the traders needs to place a trade. A good trader often know his/her limits and would never ever place a trade when the requirements are not met.


That's a very valid point and it has been a proven fact that when a trader is grabbed by greed then that trader won't be able to place good and winning trades. Such a trader will hardly get any wins because his/her greed won't let him/her to close a position with profit, and when the market goes in inverse direction then that trader will lose instead of winning. A top level trader would only take profit which is possible according to his/her strategy and would never ever think about anything higher than that.

I would recommend you to go for a cold software based wallet instead of a hardware wallet because the software cold wallets are also very safe and one can use those without any issue. As far your cold wallet is not connected to internet your security is far higher than those hardware wallets, and in a country where Bitcoin is banned one should opt for software based wallet instead of hardware wallet.

I suggest you to go with Electrum if you made your mind to go with a cold software wallet because this wallet is open-source, and is currently the best wallet most of the investors use. I'm quite sure that most Bitcoiners who use Electrum are very sure that this is the safest option when it's used as a cold wallet. I highly recommend you to go with this wallet instead of looking for a hardware wallet, and yes, you should still be careful because there can be legal problems for a citizen if he/she is doing something that's banned in a country. Do it at your own risk my friend!

If you still want to go with a hardware wallet then try to build your own instead, and for that you can find many tutorials online which teach you that how you can built such a wallet yourself. I would recommend you to watch this video whose link I will post below because I think this video can be very helpful for you.

I know that shit-coins suck and they don't hold any value, and at the same time they are useless, but I don't think one should represent them in such a way. It's something called racism because the people who are black are far more worthier then those shit-coins, and I don't think that one should represent a useless coin in that way. I don't really care about those shit-coins, but I really do love and respect black color people. I know your intention was not to hurt the ethnic groups where members have black skin color, but still you should avoid creating such posts. I request you to never represent anything in that way even just for fun because such things can hurt others feelings very badly.

You're wrong about merit sources and I recommend you to not promote any lies because the merit sources in our forum are performing their duty very well, and they also know very well that which user deserves a merit and which doesn't. The merits are often given to those users who make well informative posts, and they posts somehow reflect their helpful nature, and if a user doesn't gets a merit then that means the user isn't trying to help others but is only after grabbing merits, and we call such users as "merit fishers," because they try their best to get merits even though they do not deserve to get any of merit because of their poor positing habits.

And, when it comes to new accounts getting merits then you must have to look their post history because a useful post from a newbie is more appreciated by our merit sources because they want such newbies to rank faster. They only give merits to those newbies because they know that such users can be helpful for the forum, and they can produce more constructive and reading worthy posts after they are appreciated with merits.
Instead of blaming our merits sources you should better try to make good and helpful posts, and I'm quite sure that you'll see that merits will flow toward your good posts like to the ones that you have seen on this forum.

I think Charles-Tim is a very competent member of the board and I wholeheartedly support him to become a merit source. A user like Charles-Tim could be a very useful merit source for that local board because he is already generous with the users of the board, and wants to help the active users of the board. I hope that during upcoming adjustment theymos will consider the application of Charles-Tim, and would accept him as a merit source.

I think he has given you a good advice because when someone helps you like in this case @FatFork has helped you then as a appreciation you would definitely send some sendable merits to such users. It isn't necessary, but keeping your S-merits won't help you at all because those are not useful for you, however they can be helpful for other users who need those, and those who provide valuable information deserve to get some merits.

@ShowOff said that because on you haven't sent a single merit to a user of the forum, however you have received many merits from the generous members of the forum who support users that do a value thing in this forum. I hope that soon you will realize that keeping those s-merits won't be helpful for you in any way at all, and giving those s-merits will make you happy as well because you will feel a pleasure to help those who somehow helped you with their knowledge.

And, I must say that you have learnt about factoids from @FatFork, and that's why it should be very generous to send such users merits to show that you truly appreciate their help. It isn't mandatory, but it shows that how generous a user if with those who try to help him/her with their knowledge.

I think such people are always there to teach us some lessons that everyone in this world can't be trusted and your cousin's friend also did something that only a scammer would do. He took money from your cousin when he needed money, and now when he is financially stable, he just take U-turns and falsely says that he had already paid him that $800 dollar which he borrowed when needed.

You should tell you cousin that there are always such kind of people who take advantage of one's generosity and take U-turns by say false words and lies to convince other that they have already done them a favor when they needed it, or totally ignore the people who favored them. I think those people really don't have any morals because they can sell their soul for money, and they don't really care about someone's goodness, or about someone's emotions that they hurt with their behavior.

That's right because when we are placing bets, in a sense we are throwing money in hope of getting more of it rather than losing it, and if someone does that without proper timing then the result will be the loss of that money. Yeah, the ones who follow an approach where the surely is very less then the result of that kind of approach is often the loss of money.

A gambler should understand that gambling requires some kind of luck factor, mostly the games that these casinos offer, and if someone delves into those games with a low luck then that person could face huge losses in gambling. A good and a proper gambler would work with a strategy and should also have luck to get winning bets.
