2381  Economy / Economics / Re: Elon Musk makes offer to buy Twitter on: April 29, 2022, 04:16:23 PM
I guess Elon Musk 10% shareholder in the firm haven't been able to Grant him the level of control he desires on the social platform Twitter.

Sometimes one can have money to the extent that fell like they are supposed to own most things in life.
 
Maybe I don't know. Is Twitter having any financial debt on their shoulder? So why is E. Musk seeking for the ownership!

Could it be due to his dissatisfaction towards Bitcoin that have made him taken such move, cause it's very obvious Twitter has been and still is very influencial on Bitcoin by promoting and breaking informations  than any social media platforms.

I don't see Jack selling off Twitter at the very moment, cause as a business many even if he has the intentions of selling the firm, it wouldn't be now.

Maybe years from now, if possible.
It was basically just not "ownership" that he desired. He wanted to change some things on twitter that he felt like needed and he wasn't capable of doing that which resulted with him buying it. That’s the type of wealth he has, obviously there are financials and obviously he hopes to make a profit based on this investment however the reason he picked twitter instead of investing in something else is the fact that he wanted to change things.

Imagine being so rich that twitter does something you dislike so you spend 50 billion dollars to buy it and do the change yourself. Makes no sense to me but maybe owning information social media channel would be awesome for him.

I think you will come back once the game gives you such emotions that I even see them through your message ) By the way, isn't high volatility a plus in some sense? After all, this means that the winnings can be much larger than the bet. I don't know much about slots, but it seems to me that high volatility is the flip side of the fact that you are claiming a huge win.
He will come back to play that game again, no doubt about it since he always talk about that game in this topic. I'm sure he is addicted to Swords and Holy Grail already, that's why it is rare to see him talk about other games. Frankly speaking I was in his position few years back when I had a favorite game to play and I was not interested to play other games. It took long time for me to forget about the game then moved to other games.
That's because you're attached to the game already. You will say that you won't play it ever again because you lose, big but sooner or later you will find yourself playing on it again. I know because I experienced the same thing and until now I haven't touched any other games yet but I only play my favourite game.

There are times that you will win again on that game and you will change your mind about disliking it. It wasn't the games fault but it's just that we are only having a badluck sometimes, that's why we lose. This is gambling and badluck are too common here more than the goodluck. Slot games are fun and relaxing, just don't mind winning or losing.
2383  Economy / Speculation / Re: No strength in Bitcoin in higher time frames on: April 28, 2022, 07:26:12 PM
It looks like bitcoin has now bounced back from a local bottom. Exactly the same was true last week, when the market drop on Monday ended with bitcoin rising. If that is the case, then I agree that bitcoin and altcoins will rise in the short term. Probably in the long term such volatility can be called an accumulation.
this is a very normal answer , Bitcoin will rise short term? but when will this be? because as far as i remember?  bitcoin can increase today and it can decrease tomorrow .
so why instead of assuming big growth ,  when we can just enjoy in lower income .
so yes forget greediness but learn how to keep small income but at least surely .
And that is also normal that a drop is always followed by a rise because that is how this cycle works. A short term has no specific date. It can be a day or two, a week or a month but longer than that is not considered to be short term anymore.

What he answered above was normal but is there a problem with that? What response are you expecting here? He is just an ordinary guy like everyone else and he will be lying if he says an exact date or if he will say that the price will rise long term (if this is what you wanted to hear). But, indeed being greedy is not good however having patience to hodl for long term doesn't also mean that they are greedy.
2384  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Crypto.com as Sponsor's for FIFA World Cup on: April 28, 2022, 12:34:58 PM
Crypto.com might not be heard of by some or most people i do believe but they are making out exposure in silent because people do mostly focused on Binance but we cant really deny on what
Crypto.com is doing in terms of exposure and marketing even though it might not really be that known to some but they are really that aggressive when it comes to that part.
They might have failed on able to get FIFA sponsorship but doesnt mean that they would be stopping into that point.
I think I am going to agree with what you said about the popularity of crypto.com because even me that I am not a newb anymore, I only found or heard the name crypto.com last time when I am using the brave browser because it was advertised on it. I don't know if I already seen crypto.com before when I browse sites using chrome but maybe they only showed up rarely there.

It was binance that what I always see and binance was also the exchange that everyone is talking about but we are so proud of what crypto.com is doing. I think they are doing this not only because they want to be more popular but also because they want to spread the word crypto to the whole world.
2385  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do You Think New Casino Should Partnered With Bounty Managers To Gain Trust? on: April 26, 2022, 08:15:35 PM
Will a bounty manager want to be tied up to a single casino promotion?
Getting a contract dedicated only to one project may not benefit the bounty manager, he'd be limited to this single project unlike being employed only as campaign manager, they can manage several of it as long as they are reputable and trusted.  Since the casino and will deposit funds to the escrow, its enough that they both have agreed and can both trust each other.
Depends, if the casino offers him a good rate, I don't think he will refuse that offer. That is better than getting peanuts on managing a bounty and most of the time they don't get any pay at all because of rampant scams. Sticking to only one project can be beneficial because it gives them a peace of mind and they can enjoy their lives more better.

Using escrow is a good practice but they should be careful on picking an escrow as there are a lot of escrows in the forum that is known to be trusted but later on turned shady. It is still much better if the bounty manager holds the funds because even the escrow can get tempted on the huge money that they hold.
2386  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Drake became partners of the Stake Casino on: April 26, 2022, 07:25:14 PM
It seems that cryptocurrency casinos are already entering a completely different level. Not only are they no longer anonymous, but they are also starting to play with data harvesting. I realize the prize is very high, but in my opinion the chances of winning it are too small to give them phone number. In my opinion, this is already too much.
In case you forget, there are still casinos that don't require you to do a KYC so don't say that all casinos are no longer anonymous.

They are entering a different level, that's true because some casinos are adding new features like they integrate NFT and metaverse on their platform but not because of that one above (the contest) that's a common thing already along with promotions but for that one above, I don't think it was legit and in fact someone already discussed it before, they also don't believe that it came from drake so be careful inputting your details there. It could be a scammer that wants to steal your details and then they will sell it for profits.
2387  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is there any altcoin to be millionere by holding up to 5 years from now ? on: April 26, 2022, 06:09:12 PM
Greetings to every lovely people out there, This is so hard to guess which altcoin will go like a rocket. I love to do trading but spot trading and holding is lot more difficult for me. Is there any coin in your mind guys ? Don’t forget to share your opinion and thank you for giving time.
First when you say becoming a millionaire, how much are you planning to invest in such a coin? Seriously, I see some newbies who would invest like a $1000 and be expecting to make millions of dollars out of it, some people just like to wish for things which they know is not going to work out. If you’re planning to make millions of dollars from the investment, then you should as well be ready to invest an equivalent amount. There are so many good altcoins you can he aiming at, Cardano, Solana, and a lot of them. Sometimes a new coin can come into the market and start trending.
2388  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Turkish Super League & 1. League 2021/22 Season on: April 25, 2022, 08:46:12 PM
Beşiktaş is the favorite in today's match. If they evaluate the goal positions they find, we can watch a game with plenty of goals. Güven Yalçın will play on the left wing. Larin and Teixeira are sitting on the bench this time. Batshuayi and Güven can score if Ghezzal feeds them well. Pjanic is returning to the starting 11 again. It's as if Ismael took Güven to the 11 in order to create the defense from Vida, Welinton and Montero. It's known that at least 3 Turkish players must be on the field. He seems to have made such a plan not to play Necip. Beşiktaş will win this match and continue on its way.
Besiktas was dominating team in this fixture, but sadly they completely fail to convert their chances into goals and have the worst defeat against Kasimpasa with this defeat now their chances are going to be less for reaching out into top four teams as Basaksehir already having some good gape from other opponents and with this defeat now it's widening which is poor for them, they also have few tough matches in coming weeks which can give them more problems and this is surely going to hurt their cause for having some good spot at the end of this season.
 
In another match Sivasspor handed third consecutive defeat to Alanyaspor which is also favorite for fourth spot but now these defeats they are bringing themselves out from this competition.
2389  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is Bitcoin the best investment at the moment? on: April 25, 2022, 07:15:59 PM
Is Bitcoin the best investment at the moment?I've been trading options on BTC for about three years now, and I've made significant gains, how does everyone invest?
No doubt that Bitcoin is the best coin for investment. I still have some BTC in my wallet and I plan to add more when we have another big dump in the near future. I know well that investing in BTC is the safest option, I have earned a lot of profits many times from BTC. The key point is, just buy in the bearish season and hold until the next Bullrun season (1 year after the next halving BTC). This really works, I never failed to earn good profits with this investment way. Always believe that another Bullrun, another BTC ATH.
I am not sure if I am going to agree with that because to me bitcoin doesn't have it all.  It's too volatile and mainly works for long term but not all are comfortable with that conditions, which is why they will look for other coins. We have many coins in this market and each of the coin is tailored to the taste of every investor.

Bull run is the time where prices are rising like crazy so yes there's always an ATN on every bull run but I think bull run doesn't only occur when there is a halving. The price of BTC right now is down at some percent, why not use this as a buying opportunity? But don't wait for a heavier dump because I think that was unlikely nowadays.
2390  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are Your Kids Aware Of Bitcoin? Teach Them. on: April 25, 2022, 06:48:12 PM
Now that your kids are young and vibrant, be their tutor, ensure they are bitcoin oriented, save them from financial dependency, encourage them to rely on bitcoin instead of saving fiat currency that Depreciates now and then.

Our kids represent the leaders of tomorrow, let's teach them about bitcoin now that we can.
You are in the light or you are successful because you work hard for it. It's not caused by any other people so why feel guilty? However some gets inspiration with their family like their child, this is why they became successful. I think it's okay if we don't teach our kids with bitcoin. We can have a reason like bitcoin is too risky and we don't want them to suffer what we have when we are starting on bitcoin.

We want our kids a more comfortable life, not a stressful one. They can do what they want in life but there are some that teach their child whatever they do in life, if they do bitcoin, then they will pass this skill to their child and they want their child to pass it on to their child in the future.
2391  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The Paradox of Gambling behavior on: April 25, 2022, 04:18:25 PM
the main source is to be happy and enjoying while playing and most gamblers who experienced this would be a potential gambling addict in the future if not controlled in the first place. They may find it enjoying and amusing once they experience the feeling of winning plus every casino have their own kind of vibe that makes people get comfortable to stay that's why they stay thus get attracted to the games of casino.
And don't forget about the promotions, it's also one of the reasons why someone can get addicted on gambling. They keep on coming back, depositing more because the more they spend the more the perks/benefits they are going to get.

When your goal is only to gamble for fun, that is better and the chance for you to become addicted can be lesser because you will be contented on every results that you are getting but if you play for profit, you are sometimes not contented when you are winning. In your head you need to continue because there might be more wins waiting for you. When losing, you also want to deposit again because you want to recover. This doesn't end.
2392  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: April 24, 2022, 09:52:11 PM
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!
I have to say that there is a good case to be made about Inter getting this win could change the whole aspect of the league in a single win. Roma is a great team and Milan was hoping that there could have been a win or even at least a draw by Roma so that Milan could have been in luck. Turns out, Inter is just on a roll and they are beating everyone at this stage.

Next games Inter will play in order is Bologna, Udinese, Empoli, Cagliari, Sampdoria. As we all know anything could happen in football and we could see Inter losing to one of these teams but do we really expect them to? I mean as long as they have to win I am sure that we are going to end up seeing them winning because these are easy teams.
2393  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin on its way to $100000?! on: April 24, 2022, 09:19:51 PM
I'm happy that bitcoin is back at $42 after a few days dropping below $40k and of course I bought at the right time when the price was $38600, but I'm optimistic that the price will continue to skyrocket and $100k is an easy thing for us to achieve  in this year.
All of us are happy because finally the price starts to move after a long time of waiting but congrats to you because you buy perfectly since after you buy, we never see that price anymore. That is something that the majority can't do because by the time they buy the price then falls deeper but they can always buy again, that's still better than buying when the price is at the top.

The price will skyrocket of course, we are all optimistic by that but I think not all will agree that 100k can be achieved easily or within this year. They think that the price right now is struggling to hit a certain level so how much more if 100k? But don't worry about them, just keep on believing.
2394  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you Still Supporting And Playing On Newly Launch Casinos on: April 24, 2022, 09:02:24 PM
It's a red flag since they are offering bonuses without even requirements. Therefore, what they just want is to lure people to attract to the platform since their offer is too good to be ignored. Obviously, a company will be bankrupt if they will have a special offer like that, that's why it's impossible for a legit platform to just offer a bonus without requirements.

They just might be collecting deposits and then running away. In conclusion, it's a red flag.

But only it will change if we can read the whole terms about that bonus with no requierments.
If I recall, there's one casino here before that offers a no deposit bonus or any other special requirements. I think the reason why they did that is to attract players since they are new and they know that they will be having a hard time to gather players if they will just copy what everyone else is doing. Don't worry because it's not damaging to their capital since the amounts that they are giving are only small and it was only a limited offer.

New sites have a high probability of being a scam but we should not judge them quick and call them a scam without further investigations to back up our claims because that was so inappropriate.
2395  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The Paradox of Gambling behavior on: April 24, 2022, 07:28:35 PM
With the growth of cryptos, the crypto gambling are also growing. It makes crypto users curious of using their cryptos on them. That's one of the reason why the interest in gambling is growing but other than that is like you said gambling can provide an entertainment. Gambling can also provide profit if the gambler is lucky.

There are different types of roulette and lottery games so we need to be specific when comparing them. The winning rate can depend on which type of game it was. Each of us has our own favorite, mine was dice and yes I do play for the profit. For the number of times where I win? I can't count anymore but of course the number of losses are more than it.
2396  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Some projects are fated to doom? on: April 24, 2022, 06:58:45 PM
Hi fellow Bitcointalknaires, to all this who have been here before me and those who have been investing in crypto for the past years have there been any cases of projects with a good hardworking team that give their best shots and yet the project still fails? Tell me one project that face this same fate.
Indeed there has been a lot of projects in the cryptocurrency market which people believed would be successful but they ended up failing. We can’t really tell what could have led to the failure of all these projects, because we are not part of the team we are just some outsiders who are picking up interest in the projects and investing in the ones we believe in.

For a project to fail, it is possible that one thing or the other must have triggered what led to the failure. One thing which is likely to lead to a failure of a cryptocurrency project is inadequate resources. So most of the time, the team can be hard working but due to lack of the resources that they need to keep the project going, they might end up giving up on it which leads to a failure.
2397  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Crypto prices are starting to strengthen again on: April 24, 2022, 08:25:34 AM
Last year we saw the bull market and the current market much lower, but we are relatively good position in terms of bear market. I believe that if the market improves a bit from this situation, it will definitely move towards the bull market and if btc price continuing to rise then altcoins will also be more stronger.
Actually looking at the current market conditions which are really unstable it doesn't seem easy to go to a bull market,
even so we never know and the price of Bitcoin also continues to show an increase,
hope the uptrend of Bitcoin can last a long time
I believe that "not easy looking" is exactly when it goes up. It always looks like it is failing when the price start to go up. The trick is that whales make you believe that it is going to be very difficult for you to end up with something like a big bull run, and then they make you end up getting scared and that is when they end up making the big splash.

I am not saying that you will not be waiting for it, maybe it will take time, but do not be losing your hope just because it looks like it is not going to do anything. Usually whenever the price starts to drop, it is the time to pick up because that means there could be some bull run coming soon.
2398  Economy / Economics / Re: Life is a puzzle ! on: April 23, 2022, 09:56:32 PM
I think Life is not a puzzle but Life is a mystery, we never happen what happens later, we do our best but it is not necessarily able to produce the best, but we must do the best, sometimes life is strange because stupid people can be more successful than those who are clever.
Life is not fair, it is true that sometimes stupid people can be more successful than clever people. But that's not the majority and it's not that we feel unlucky, it's that we live loosely, not trying our best. So, no matter how difficult life is, as long as we make efforts and try, I believe everything will be rewarded.
The difference is that stupid people make stupid decisions that sometimes lead to success. For example if you have 10k saved all through your life and do not have any other money, and ended up buying shiba when it first got out, then it would have been a very stupid decision, it's a fake off from doge that would only go up if there is a hype around the meme, and it did, if anyone did that stupid thing, they would be richer today.

Obviously this isn't the norm, because usually people who make these kind of stupid stuff end up with losing a ton of money, but sometimes we do end up with them being right and clever people are not taking those risks.
2399  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: April 23, 2022, 09:28:20 PM
This week's Bundesliga match everyone will be on Bayern vs Dortmund match, we will see a match that is likely to be exciting. Because in this match if Bayern manages to beat Dortmund, they will officially become the winners of the Bundesliga trophy. But even if Bayern lose to Dortmund, it seems that it is already very difficult to catch up with Bayern's points. Actually the Bayern vs Dortmund match too, we will see the rivalry of Lewandowski and Haaland, these two strikers will prove to each other who between the two is the most productive. So Bayern vs Dortmund match will be very entertaining, but my prediction is the same as most people, which is that I predict Bayern will beat Dortmund.
It will certainly be a very important game to watch, not because of championship or anything, we all know that Bayern is the champions, it's long gone. But at the very least, we will see two of the best teams in Germany to play against each other, so it should definitely be a fun game.

Haaland vs Lewandowski is always fun, I hope they are both healthy and can play, I do not know if there is anything. In the end, Bayern is getting older whereas Dortmund is getting younger, so maybe this could be turning point of an era and maybe with the momentum of this game Dortmund could become the next champions next year and break the cycle of Bayern championships back to back to back for 10 years.

Wont believe that it was a mistake because you would definitely be noticing that he made that in a row which its impossible that you wont notice and also if you do accidentally made out wrong bet amount then its not
something for this to be big.

Looking these numbers do really make us drool and this is something that we couldnt see on everyday basis which is really good to look at that there are really people who could really afford on losing
such huge sums of money.You could really see on most gambling sites on where there are people who are high rollers.
Maybe he was using an auto bet that time? And the bet continues for the second time around but he got lucky because he got two consecutive wins. He is more lucky if the amount that he bet was not intended but accident have happened like he unintentionally push that max bet button or the 2x/3x.. button. Never happened to me, that I win in an accidental bet but I only lose.

This is why whenever I play I always hide that max bet button in the setting just to be safe. It's interesting to see huge amounts like this on a crypto casino, we can say that people now have a confident on using cryptocurrencies as much as they use fiats.
