The way that the DT system is right now, it serves nobody but a select few. Its not even a trust system at this point. Its a "you scratch my back and I scratch yours" kind of system. It has almost absolutely nothing to do with how trustworthy a person is but rather who he is liked/disliked by. Its a system of favoritism.

We absolutely need an complete overhaul of the trust system or we will keep seeing people abuse it for their own purposes. I imagine there is even some trust selling going on in the background.

Maybe we should have a community voting system for who gets DT instead? Obviously the "DT club" alone cannot be trusted with responsibility. Anyone who does not deserve to be in the system gets voted out by the entire Bitcointalk community. We can have votes once a year or something.

If the gambler is betting with cryptocurrency that dumps and pumps like Ethereum then obviously I think that his gamblers nature will make him feel as if he is in a bad trade. At that point he might trade his coin for a stablecoin. But thats a mistake that people make without knowing whether or not their crypto will go up or down again. An if it goes up instead of down the gambler will have made a loss on his holdings.

So I think its best to either bet with stablecoins or not trade back and forth if the market isnt looking good.

I might be changing my mind

That strongly depends on the amount of alcohol and illicit substances we have available at the party.

Ignoring the dip is probably the unhealthiest way to cope. In fact, you should not be putting yourself into a situation in which you wish to cope. The problem is your short termed mindset of an investment, thats true. It means you are not 100% onboard or having second thoughts.

If you asked around any veteran coiner and early BTC adopter would tell you the same thing - here's what you need to actually do:

Replace the word dip with the word bargain. Because thats what each dip should be, in your eyes. A limited time bargain price. Once you develop the hodlers mindset, you will see how fast your investments are gaining traction.

Oh cool, I just realised I am legendary. What do I do? Celebrate?

Seems like an open and shut case, Johnson. 

Obviously OP is at fault for not reading the terms and conditions. Although after having taken a look at his trust ratings its obvious this is not the first time he has been trying to slap mud on the name of a trusted online gambling casino. Say what you like but it even seems like giving casinos a bad name is his job. I wonder if other casinos hire him to do this?

Either way its what I would deem Libel. The casinos he has continually defamed could give him a bad time if they wanted.

Not only is this guy, Zarfund, a complete troll who deletes posts randomly, he is also a scammer who tried to scam people out of their money. At some point we need to set bans on scammers like him. Not just bans but IP bans. They might do nothing for someone with a VPN but it will clean up some of the trash thats scamming around on this forum. At some point leaving negative trust feedback really does nothing. And newbies still read his topics without understanding the kind of person he is.

If not a ban, could we at least get global ignores for all user-posts or a mechanism for denying users with a certain amount of negative trust the freedom to create topics?

I am glad you won the bet, but taking out a loan to gamble was a bad life decision which could have taken a very bad turn. I hope your latest gambling win does not inspire you to take out more loans to gamble with. As far as betting goes, I only bet with money I can afford to lose without having to take out any borrowed money. In fact, I hate asking for loans. How did you even convince someone to loan you money to use for betting? Hopefully that was not mafia loans  . That could have turned out really badly.

That seems very philosophical but you are not wrong in thinking that way. Life itself is obviously risky and everything we do is risky. The only thing we can really win by gambling at this casino named life, is more time.

Everything we do just gives us more time but in the end, the casino wins and we lose. Losing in this case means not only losing our money but everything we own, are or ever will be. Thats death basically. The worst loss you can experience in your lifetime.

But as with gambling normally at a casino, this type of "life gamble" is what we need. Otherwise can you imagine how boring existance would be?

Any stranger reaching out to you on telegram is 99.9% a scammer. If I were you I would avoid them. You can turn off the option of being contacted by strangers or added to groups in the Telegram options. I would recommend turning both off. I did and I have my peace now.

Classics. If you post them in the mentioned required format, I will add them to the list.

Can you imagine the value of Bitcoin, once its limited supply has been made legal tender by the entire population of Earth?

We already are at the stage of small country adoption of Bitcoin as legal tender. Once a big country like Mexico joins in(and they will), then we will see the next stage of adoption. I believe that Bitcoin will become the global world currency. It's coming in the next 2-5 years. Definitely.

I added it to my list.

Also, this is the english translated full version. (Bad quality and weird music added): but https://youtu.be/ZvQzaSa_4Q0
Don't listen to the audio, it ruins the film.

Added! Thank you for the recommendation!

The idiot masses will make a cult out of what they consider "AI predictions" in the near future. Feel free to screenshot this.



Also thanks for the movie idea. I watched it and I am adding it to my list

Added Harakiri and Three Days of the Condor.

Anyone is free to recommend an old movie.

Its a bit hard to take your university serious and as "sharp minded" when people do not understand a very simple concept which has thousands of explaination videos on youtube which even explain Bitcoin in a way a non-coding layman can understand. It seems more likely that the problem is not that they do not understand but rather there is no interest among anyone at your university.

So from my point of perspective, the problem that you should be solving is how to get people interested in Bitcoin.

Your problem is a marketing problem. Find ways to market Bitcoin to them in a way that connects the old ways and the new and will drive people to become interested in Bitcoin.

Fortunejack is really upping the game when it comes to user experience design! I really like how pleasantly the colors match and overlap on the new version. It does not hurt the eyes and games are easy to find and understand. I have not yet had the pleasure of trying out the new games but I definitely will, when I find the time!

A lot of people assume that I am merely promoting this casino for money but the truth is, I have really started to like the site. Most comfy gambling experience that I have ever had!

I hope FJ stays at the top as number 1 for years to come! Good job, Fortunejack team!

As much as a fan of Canelo that I am, I really cannot condone bias, especially from people with a position of power and responsibility like actual judges. They have already damaged their reputation far enough for me to distrust them completely. If anything this is why a large amount of people in the gambling world believe that even big fights like this are rigged. And the more I see unfair bias, the more I have to agree with them on that assessment.

I hope things start changing soon because the judges really ruin the fight for everyone. I find myself losing interest in whatever fight they have a say in.
