I think most of the websites have almost the same referral bonus. Maybe a little percentage is the only difference and it is negligible. You won't really notice the difference unless the difference jumps up to a 15% interval. But if it isn't, you won't feel it much really. In addition, the referral bonus won't really matter that much unless the person you referred to is active in gambling. Because there's a rule I suppose in this referral rewards system in which for every bet your referred person makes, you will get a little percentage. So if the person you referred isn't really using his account, you will hardly get something in return. I guess this rule was made to avoid being abused by people who are multi-accounting. I suggest instead of actually finding a casino that offers a high referral, check instead of a well-known and reputable casino that could take care of your funds and you can really say that worth the risk because not everyone on the internet is worth it. There are so many complaints on the scams and accusations board if you'll check so might as well go and find the most trusted and reliable one.

I believe things that we know of are important to be taught first at home rather than in school or by other people. Teaching your kids the risks and ways on how to gamble is a big thing that they could benefit from the moment they grew older and when they reach a suitable age a person can already gamble. They can also use your guidance not only in the field of the gambling industry but in general as well. Because after all, everything that we do possesses risks and we just have to make the right calculations such as in decision making in order to have a desirable outcome.

In addition, it's much better to teach it to your children first hand so that you know that you are partaking the right terms, tips, and ways instead of it being taught by a complete stranger. That way, you know the things that you are telling them and you control the information they are going to hear from you. Since there should be certain things that still have to be left behind and not discussed yet until a certain age and level of understanding is developed.

There's a lot of advantages and disadvantages gambling has to offer. This has been talked to several times already here in the forum. It just depends on how a person will permit gambling to influence his life in either a negative or positive manner. Gambling can be a source of income and entertainment for most people. For some people, this is their one way to generate income and is a way for them to bring food to their table. This also serves as entertainment and ease of boredom especially to those people who don't have other outlets to release stress and to have fun. Gambling brings enormous joy to those who are very much used to it. This could also bring job opportunities in a certain place which could result in boosting the tourist rate and eventually the employment rate. Later on, the boosting of the employment rate could then proceed to boost tax revenue by the state because there are more establishments now that are obliged to pay taxes back to the government. This could cause a positive effect on the economy of a country may it be only a little.

However, gambling has its repercussions as well in which could totally negate the good things out offers which is addiction. I think this disadvantage of gambling is one of the major reasons why some countries are still holding back from letting gambling be legal in their area because the citizens' welfare is at risk in this kind of scenario. If the government won't really organize and plan ahead, this could be big trouble. Hence, maybe some just don't have the energy to talk about it yet and give it a chance in their place.

I think there are still very limited options to choose from when it comes to virtual reality gambling or metaverse gambling because most of them are still in the process of being developed yet. Hence, you'll see a small scale of casinos to choose from by now. Considering the gadgets and accessories used as well, the choices would definitely narrow down a little more. If I remember it correctly, someone here from the forum managed to take and experience the feeling of what it is like to play inside the virtual reality casino which is Attari despite it not being able to be officially launched yet. Perhaps the system experienced a bug in which the reason why he managed to enter the game. But I must say that the interface of it is pretty nice. Maybe you could try to look it up here in the forum and see for yourself so when the official launch date is announced and it will be officially released, you'll be able to try.

The title definitely makes sense and this sums up the situation as to why not everyone has bitcoin.

Bitcoin is made for everyone. Bitcoin is invented for us to be our own bank and to manage our own finances instead of letting our finances be managed by other people or institutions. Bitcoin isn't degrading and discriminating against any who plans to enter it. In fact, it encourages people because it is the heart of it. Without the people, bitcoin will lose its demand and will just be other coins that have little to no usage at all because none is using it for instance. Bitcoin is just always there, waiting for future investors. And it will always be ready and open for anyone, whenever, wherever as long as the country is open with the idea of cryptocurrency.

However, not everyone will be for bitcoin. In a sense that not every one of us has the same risk tolerance to be able to invest in bitcoin. We have different risk appetites and what might be profitable for me might not be the case for other people. There are just some people who don't like how aggressive the risks are in bitcoin and in crypto in general because some of them are used to other ways of generating income. And in those ways, there are various levels of risks too. Hence, they might not see bitcoin as something worth it. Meanwhile, there are people who just lack understanding and refuse to know more about bitcoin. These people are close-minded which is the reason why they don't want to invest in bitcoin. There are also people who just have none and as much as they want to invest, they lack the resources needed such as money, gadgets, and connectivity. I believe there are many people belonging in this case because of course, not each one of us is privileged enough to have spare that we could use to risk. Some just have enough to get by. Others just barely make it and are just living paycheck to paycheck. Sometimes still lack the funds to sustain their necessities.

So it's really fortunate of us to have the resources and be able to do and invest in bitcoin. Not everyone has the same opportunity no matter how much they crave it. We must be thankful and do our best to maintain it. I know there would be ways for the latter to be able to achieve it if they really want it, but it would be a tough time for them. This would take a lot of effort and patience in which only a few manage to do because there are still many unforeseen factors that we don't know about they are currently battling with.

Savings and investment plans are nice things to start this year. Financial literacy should be something to be taught first at home and then in school so that people would be more knowledgeable on how to handle money and how to make decisions that could either make or break them. I agree with you that the past year has taught us so many lessons because I, myself, also experienced hardships last year. I have my fair shares of ups and downs and I have experiences in which I must say a lesson learned well and charge to experience. Because there were also several times in which I acted impulsively resulting in an uncalculated outcome that just brought me regrets. Although, I know I have learned something from it and that's what is more important so that I won't be able to commit the same mistakes again in the future.

Indeed, knowing how much funds you have and properly allocating the budget you have is a good thing to do so that you won't be short in funds in something you are planning to start. Make a list and write down the things you want to start this year. Check what's your priority and then allocate a budget for each of them. Make sure also to have multiple streams of income so that you won't be having a hard time making an in-flow of money. That way, you will have different sources of fundings and you won't be so down if ever one fails to generate for the meantime because you have backups. You see, diversification is a very smart move to do. It would be a little difficult and challenging at first, but it would definitely pay off. Of course, still, do a thorough checking on the things you are planning to diversify your funds with because there are still so many scams and schemes nowadays and it's always better to be safe than sorry.

I don't really think we can go back to the old barter system in which you would exchange or trade something in return because that was so outdated already and in modern times, you can hardly see the part in which you could try to insert it to be used again. Most especially now that innovation and technology are rapidly spreading and used by almost everyone. Maybe in a little area like in some parts of a country which is rural, it can possibly happen. In the province and in simple communities, this would be probable and doable - to have a barter system that could enable people to live like it was an old century again. However, this won't be possible in the cities as this is more of a task and not everyone has the luxury to trade something for something. This could also bring conflict such as unjust wage counterparts and such to the workers. It's still much better to have it in a money-based system. Because after all, we cannot pay bills with vegies. I doubt the big corporations would even accept that.

Paypal has been existing so many years now. If I'm not mistaken it is already roughly 23 years operating. And right now, there are so many exchangers and e-wallet both at the same time that has been rising and developing which means Paypal has now so many competitors unlike before wherein there are only a few. With this being said, could probably be the reason why they are planning to launch their own stablecoin, if it was really true. Maybe Paypal just wants to have an edge over other exchangers and e-wallets nowadays to make their customers stay and to have more possible users for the following months once it will be implemented.

Although I just hope they won't be too strict on the usage such as the buying and selling of it because that would defeat the purpose if they would be too controlling of the users' decision over the handling of the stablecoin. If this would really happen, let's see if they would be able to handle it well. Most central exchangers want to be involved in blockchain technology perhaps because of its features. Let's just wait how they will manage it. Hopefully, they'll implement it well to retain and encourage more customers.

There's nothing certain in the world of cryptocurrency. Hence, most people use and do technical analysis to somehow see and "predict" what might happen to the trend of the coin in the next few hours, days, weeks, months, or even years. you have to remember that the market dictates the price position of a coin. If the demand is high, supply is low, the price value will be high. If the demand is low and there is enough supply or even more, then the price value will be low. The simple law of supply and demand is one of the factors why the trend of a coin is like that. Another factor could be the season of the market. In crypto, we have two seasons that we could utilize to our own advantage which are the bullish and bearish seasons. In these seasons, the positions are completely opposite. In bearish, the price of almost every coin is a dump, meanwhile, is bullish, you can see pumps. So you should also consider if you are planning to invest in the kind of season the crypto market is currently in to avoid regrets.

There are also people who we call whales who can play the massive pump and dump of the price of a coin. These are the people who either drop a big amount of coins or hoard them in which affects the price position of the coin in the market. There are also other external factors such as big personalities stating their stance and whatnots which could affect the market most especially if they have a wide audience (newbies) that easily believes whatever they has to say.

I would like to congratulate you on your business. This time, having a creative and imaginative mind is something that a person needs in order to make his business be widely known and successful. We always have to look for innovation and other products or services that the clients need in order to be on the top of our game. We have to have an edge over other companies so that we could garner and have a larger market. And you, having an interest in bitcoin and utilizing it is a nice move for our community.

Having the initiative to make crypto involved in our businesses is a good thing to let people be aware of its existence as well as its benefits. You can help people be curious about it and let them research on their own which is beneficial on their end and could be beneficial to you as well. If you are still looking for suggestions, I suggest for you use the easy payment method through QR via the lightning network so that people would just have to scan and won't undergo the hassle of inputting so many things just to have their payment processed. You could use a static QR for your store in which would serve as the receiver wallet of each of your customers' payments. That way, there would be little to no hassle to both parties.

It was unfortunate that you have lost your trezor which contains the crypto you bought years ago. I hope there's a way you could stumble upon to recover your seed phrase at least to open your account again. Because 9 ETH is such a big amount especially now that it pumped its way up after several years have passed. But since you have mentioned that you want to start from scratch, I assume you are now ready to let go and forget the assets you bought.

If you will be investing once more in crypto, /just invest what you can afford to lose. you can invest your spare money if you have so that if ever things go bad, you won't be heavily affected. Ask yourself if you want to stay for the long term or short term and from there, decide. If you are here for the short term, then have some capital that you could use to make your money flow in buy and sell. If you are here for the short term, invest in good coins and hold as long as you can and as long as you are satisfied. It's never too late after all to start investing. It's better to do it now than never at all. We can always make up with the missed times and opportunities today rather than waiting to regret once more in the future.

I agree.

Since most of the exchanges are now requiring KYC, there's no other way but to do KYC, I mean binance requiring KYC doesn't bother me at all because they are the best exchange so far since I've started trading in cryptocurrency. Kucoin ain't that bad either but I will recommend binance for their overall good service. It's better to put your funds somewhere you think it's safe and in good hands.

Some people are confusing, when bitcoin made a new ATH, they'll said that they missed the chance to make profits and decided not to invest on it. When it dips, people would say they are glad they didn't invest on it because it will become valueless. Those people are not worth it to encourage to engage in cryptocurrency, because they will just blame you when the market become bearish.

People who don't know how to accept down moments doesn't deserve cryptocurrency at its best. They should stick to fiat instead.

It's because they lack in emotion control, that's the reason why. I've tackled already about the real reason why people are suffering from gambling addiction, and it is not about lack of self-discipline, it's all about the emotions we feel the moment we are in a verge of losing too much in gambling that leads us to a chaotic situation for us to bet money without any strategy at all.

This will be a subjective matter as each of us has different taste in terms of interface, services, and environment. We have different risk tolerance as well. Hence, what might be best for me and for others might not work well to you. I suggest you look up to different casinos and check the services they offer as well as the genuine reviews of their past and current clients to assess whether it is worth to take the risk or not.

If you are really after the perks a VIP will experience, you must also look if the advantages and benefits they serve to their VIP customers are what you are looking for and suitable for your liking. Otherwise, you'll just end up disappointed.

I'd rather hodl my bitcoin rather than risk it by selling at a very low price just to risk it again by investing to some random altcoins in the market. The profit you could get by hodling is much more better than the "profits" you could make by risking it to some altcoins in the long run, the higher the volatility, the better in the long run, in my opinion.

Don't get too excited or scared because of the recent dump, it's normal.

I agree.

I don't like fiat either but still force on using it because we doesn't have a choice since the Government still uses it for corruption and of course manipulating the economy that leads to further conflicts like wars, etc... The future of gambling industry won't stick to the old style for sure because like us using fiat, they won't have a choice if fiat is gonna be phased out in the future, surely they will be force to adopt the latest form of payment which is cryptocurrency or electronic payment system.

There's a 50/30/20 and 70/20/10 rule in money, but what I do is I only spent 10% of my total income every time I receive my salary. The urge on spending your money on your wants is very very uncontrollable if you don't know how to save money. In your given example, if I'm earning $2000 monthly, I would only spend the 10% of it in gambling, it's only gonna be a ln entertainment type of gambling because once you treat it as your source of income, the rest of the remaining money would vanish.

Lucky is really the right term and of course on how good you are on probabilities, simple as that, except for those fixed matches (that you need connections in order to win). Consistency is also important, losing a couple of times should never chicken you out if you really wanted to pursue sports betting profession, it's easy money as long as you know your stuff, it is not easy but it's worth it.

The thing that you should never forget is that you don't bet all in, if you can't afford to lose that bet.

I definitely agree with you.

Greed can only be the reason for someone's bankruptcy if what he do all the time is repeating the same mistake over and over again, instead of learning from it, he decided to embrace it and stand strong for his trading technique hoping that it will give him profits if he will stick to it, but that's not how it works. Trading is a very broad profession, that you need to be very versatile in what you need to do in order to always gain profits.

You need to look for different angles to recuperate your losses to avoid getting bankrupt. Pride won't gonna help you to be a successful trader, but accepting your mistakes and learning lessons from it will do.
