2461  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: fellas be careful from this kind of scams! - READ on: March 26, 2023, 08:46:00 PM
I am still wondering how someone would wake up from sleep and start telling people to believe in their post as authentic and genuine with ill intentions of account phishing and possible hack. What annoys me most is that people still fall victim of such gimmicks and tricks. Well most people who fall victim of such are the greedy ones who are not satisfied with their current state and are always moved by give aways that in the real sense are not realistic. They end up getting scammed by scammers and their wallets hacked. Some too are just too lousy and ignorant of doing their own research properly before engaging and after getting scammed they start crying and shouting for help which is not possible. I think people should be careful the way they click on links and should always do their research before getting themselves engaged in any investment activities so as to avoid the unfortunate.
2462  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: POS wahala: EFCC arrests 80 PoS vendors in Ondo, CBN Ban Banks 4rm Operating PoS on: March 26, 2023, 01:00:34 PM
Abeg wetin dey happen with PoS, na so so dem news I just dey see for  everywhere for my timeline. Few days ago I read say CBN dun ban banks from operating POS and dem dun Approves 17 Companies As Mobile Money Operators In Nigeria. I dey look through those name and I no sew Opay yet I dey see their Pos everywhere abi make person look through so we know where we stand. See as the news go;

CBN Ban Banks From Operating PoS, Approves 17 Companies As Mobile Money Operators In Nigeria
Read more here: https://crossriverwatch.com/2023/03/cbn-ban-banks-from-operating-pos-approves-17-companies-as-mobile-money-operators-in-nigeria/amp/

Due to the recent hiccups experienced by bank customers and their inability to use mobile apps and other digital touchpoints, Nigerians have begun the search for alternatives as fintech firms have taken over the ecosystem and provided better experiences.These licensed mobile operators have provided relief to many Nigerians at the time of unprecedented transaction failures.

The mobile money operators offer incentives such as zero transfer charges and daily rewards to customers. Many customers on these platforms are concerned about the legality of the platforms and wonder if they are authorised or licensed to operate in Nigeria. The worries have prompted the apex bank to draw up a list of authorised operators in the financial ecosystem

Still on the PoS matter; "Over 80 Point of Sales (PoS) vendors in Akure, the Ondo State capital, have been arrested by operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) for allegedly buying and selling money to individuals with higher interest. you fit find the story here; https://thenationonlineng.net/efcc-arrests-80-pos-vendors-in-ondo/". I dey understand say this people dun confess say dem dey buy this money from banks but no be the same banks wey dey say dem no get cash. Shey una dey see the country we dey inside, no be everything wey dey blame government. Shall how una see the development, e good as EFCC dey go after this POS businesses or you dey feel say na another misplaced priority?

I think this is a misplaced priority. Doing the right thing at the wrong time. I was thinking they would swing into action as earlier when the heat was on by starting with the banks selling the naira note to the POS vendors. Week's ago Nigerians were under pressure and sufferings just to get naira notes which were removed in circulation. Banks and pos took advantage of the whole process as a good lucrative business by trading with the naira for naira at exhorbitant rate extorting and exploiting innocent citizens of the country. The efcc should have swinged into action then not now. They are just attention seekers who does not know or have clues on what to do at the right time.

OP I checked your activities and the last time you responded to an inquiry here was on the 16th and last appearance was on the 23rd which shows a sign of inactivity from your end and this is not a good sign to start with because many gamblers are looking at that aspect of it to really know of your customer care service would be active as well since you are the representative of your casino here. I will advise you to be regular and active here to field questions and answers to the members.

Since you are new here it is assumed you are amongst the list of unpopular casinos here. Inother to gain popularity, you would need to do a marketing and advertising promotion for your casino but you would need the expertise of a good campaign manager with good reputation and mind you, such campaigns takes minimum of two months fir a stronger audience and popularity.
2464  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Given an option between Bitcoin and Fiat which do you prefer? on: March 25, 2023, 01:02:00 PM
As a bitcoin enthusiast having the knowledge of bitcoin and it's potentials compared to the fiat as a local currency and means of exchange or payment for services rendered what is your take and preference on it? And how long do you think it will take for bitcoin to be accepted as a digital legal tender world wide?

Bitcoin is better than fiat but I'm part of the school of thought that believes that bitcoin and fiat should coexist. You don't have to choose between them at all times. Before buying bitcoin for the first time you need fiat. It's fiat you'll use to purchase your coins. Nothing stops me from using fiat in my day-to-day while using bitcoin as my store my asset. I don't believe the purpose of bitcoin is to replace fiat and I also bitcoin and fiat can coexist.

I honestly do not know how long it will take for bitcoin to be accepted as a digital legal tender globally but the good news is that bitcoin has made a lot of progress. A lot of people that that thought bitcoin was the next worst thing after cancer are beginning to see that they were wrong all along about bitcoin. A lot of misconceptions about bitcoin is being cleared out. It might be a while but at the rate we can be hopeful. It will also do us good to know that it may not happen in our lifetime.

It is true you have said as bitcoin and Fiat coexist. With fiat, you can buy bitcoin which means the two needs each other to exist. In reality, fiat is generally acceptable by government as they approved of it as a legal tender while bitcoin is still on course to get adoption approval from government while already accepted it as a means of payment. Although bitcoin since it's inception has been on a steady rise in popularity as many are aware of it and the acceptance is fast growing. Definitely, just as you have said, bitcoin would gain it's acceptance globally with time.
2465  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How I got money today on: March 24, 2023, 10:54:59 AM
OP I do not really have clues of your country and to know how valuable that figure is compared to your local currency but anyways, you did well by helping the said lady to do some research on best platform to help her get bitcoin. Atleast that saved her some risk and stress sourcing for it as she is a new bie in the system. All thanks to you for your kindness but you benefited from it in all rounds and I hope you advised her on the " not your keys, not your coin" slogan so she would be aware and possibly the safest wallet she could start with as a newbie depending on what she wants to do with it if she's buying holding or not.

Lastly, it pays to be good and do good. You got your rewards for that OP. Thumbs up to you.
2466  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Given an option between Bitcoin and Fiat which do you prefer? on: March 24, 2023, 09:58:50 AM
I will choose both for now because I can support myself and my family with fiat, while with bitcoin, I can have additional investments in crypto.
It will complete my life to prepare my future better.
And I haven't imagined using bitcoin for everyday life because not all online or offline stores are willing to accept payments using bitcoin while they still use fiat.
And I also don't know how long it will be until bitcoin can be accepted as legal tender worldwide because it depends on the policies of each government.
Therefore, I chose both rather than just choosing a fiat because by owning both, I believe that my life will be better in the future.

Choosing both of them is not bad, it is a good idea because both of them are still very much useful and recognized but one recognized than the other and they are still of good value. The fiat as you have said I locally acceptable by any given government based on their fiat arrangements and value while the bitcoin on the other side is a digital currency which is globally recognized but many are still yet to adopt it which is where the barrier lies. Most firms and organizations are yet to look into it as a legal tender because of its volatility. However, many see it as a store of value irrespective of the fact that it is volatile. If one can just invest in the bitcoin for a long time and do away with the thoughts of it, I think it would be okay while being engaged in other activities.
2467  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is the biggest problem you think AI can fix in gambling on: March 23, 2023, 07:14:09 PM
I believe that fraud is the biggest issue that online casinos are facing after settling with the LAW to keep running their businesses, and I believe that the combination of Artificial Intelligence with human assessment will help prevent frauds.

With AI it will be more easier to eliminate frauds and set a stronger level of protection because AI is far more capable of doing the intense cross checking and and more complex security checks, it is a load of work for human to do cross checking themselves as the chance of missing a spot is possible due to tiredness or laziness. All these work load can be shifted to AI and leave the investigation cases to humans to fix.

What else do you think a gambling casino can benefit from using AI technology?

 Your idea is not a bad one. AI  can be used for such task as you have said. Atleast it will be a relieve and can do more multi task as required of it but you know AI are robots and are not humans so therefore there is every possibility that they might be of outage ie run error. Robots are man made  so therefore 100% correctness can never be guaranteed. Sometimes it can be deployed for such task and sometimes after executing the task, human can do a
physical verification to ascertain the correctness of what the AI has done if there could be any alignment if discovered.
Your point is not a bad one but it must not be left for the AI to do till the final results.
2468  Economy / Gambling / Re: 1xbit1.com - New 1xbit.com management - We will try to solve all the problems - on: March 23, 2023, 04:15:35 PM
in this case, it would be better to stay away from anything related to 1xbit which is well known for deceiving many people and avoiding is one of the really good ways.
and we as fellow members are here to remind each other that dangerous things like 1xbit fraud really need to be paid attention to trusted members here have also investigated all of this.
Exactly everyone need to be careful while dealing with ops and don't give out their sensitive information to strangers I wonder why ops want complainants to contact him since he already has an open thread why doesn't he demand all evidence here in this thread?
-That way everything will be transparent and real for everyone to see how ops solve the problems, thereby proving he is now in charge of the casino.

What baffles me is that OP is claiming that they are the new team of 1xbit for which he said the 1xbit management changed hands sending us signals that they must have bought the casino and I asked myself this question who on earth would see a spoilt food and still spend their money to buy that spoilt food which can likely kill them. In this case, 1xbit is worst than a poison. Who will spend their funds paying for a casino with numerous scam accusations unresolved unless they want to go bankrupt in the course of trying to resolve all pending scam accusations to redeem their image which I believe they would not want to dare that. Nobody would but such casino without proper evaluation and investigation on the casino.
OP if you truly are for real do well to send us proof to your claims as to change of ownership.
2469  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Do Kwon arrested on: March 23, 2023, 02:45:02 PM
Better wait for another confirmation, their source is a Twitter user that claims:

Quote
Montenegrin police have detained a person suspected of being one of the most wanted fugitives, South Korean citizen Do Kwon, co-founder and CEO of Singapore-based Terraform Labs.

I find it a bit weird and stupid for him to use a European airport, despite not being part of the EU Montenegro has a ton of extradition treaties, and with him on the Interpol list, there is no chance they will not deport him. Pretty a stupid move, he should have fled to some south Asian country instead.

I think OP is  likely correct because I did a search for it and cointelegraph  is up with the news as Do Kwon is being arrested. His arrest is long overdue as he has been on the run for months claiming he is open to any government call in answering any questions as to what really happened to Terra chain and investors funds.

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://cointelegraph.com/news/do-kwon-reportedly-arrested-in-montenegro/amp&ved=2ahUKEwj1sdvZn_L9AhVOi_0HHdX5DIYQFnoECBcQAQ&usg=AOvVaw1qvAsSgC9nnUAZYtdTX7y-
According to the reports, he was arrested at podgorica airport, Montenegro with "falsified documents" so I was wondering why he did use fake documents in traveling if that be the case. I thought he said he was not hiding from anybody and is willing to respond to any call from the government in answering any questions.
2470  Economy / Economics / Re: What will you do if bitcoin crash? on: March 22, 2023, 07:56:35 PM
Based on the topic of this thread, I comment and I see this as "falacy of misconception" in the real sense, it is not real and I think it can never happen that bitcoin will crash. Now I ask when you say crash, what do you mean by that? Because there are lots of meanings based on your ascertion and would want to know what you really mean by the word crash.
Well I will assume you are talking about price drop but however, if that should happen, I see that as an opportunity to bag more bitcoin because I know it would definitely rise back. So I do not think I would be worried about it
2471  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Looking for INVESTORS on: March 22, 2023, 06:18:59 PM
Than in such situation accured, right now looking for people who are interested to invest. And when in next year game will be ready I will contact you back and let you know that the game is ready for the show room.

OP go develope you casino or whatever you are working on to a good presentable stage before thinking of looking for who to invest in your project. This scenario just looks like a situation whereby  a farmer want to harvest and goes to the farm without his or her harvester what do you think would happen? Do you think the farmer would be able to make a harvest on farm without any harvesting too or equipment? This situation is likened to be your current situation OP. If you must get an investor, you should be able to invest in your project by starting to develop it to some certain stage meaningful to be able to present to investors so they will know you are serious about your efforts. Anything outside of it, you are really not ready for deal.
2472  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: 1xbet closed my account without paying the balance in my account. on: March 22, 2023, 12:55:57 PM
Well done, you are customer #26491017473 for this to happen to


I had the exact same experience in 2019. I was put through KYC 3 times, same documents, bizarre requests, no response.

Their trademark scam.
They have been doing this business for a long time. I don't know why gamblers join this website after so many negative reports.
There are many gamblers like you who have had similar experiences on this website. They give various excuses including Kyc to scam their customers' funds, so don't expect anything more from them because at the end of the day they will scam you.

I have come to realize that amongst all the complaints of scam relating to 1xbit, the victims are majorly newbies who have no idea about the activities of 1xbit. I start to wonder if they really put efforts in researching about the casinos they are about dealing with. They do not in any way attempt to check on reviews about this particular casino to know their true state and what people are saying about the casinos they are about identifying with. They just get registered because they saw the advert on bonuses or someone told them that based on referrals. After getting registered and being scammed, they look for this platform to start crying and complaining for possible help.
I have no doubt that most of the newbies complaining are old members that are fully aware of the 1xbit scam activities but still pay deaf ears and when they get scammed, they disguise themselves in a newbie account complaining on being scammed.
2473  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Exit scam - Betja went down without any explanation on: March 22, 2023, 12:36:52 PM
What happened: Betja was a no KYC sportsbook with decent reputation in this forum because they have been established for around a year, run a signature campaign, run few promotions, and solve any complaints toward them, they've distribute the reward for signature campaign and promotions without any issue. There's a newbie claim to get scammed for 1.1 BTC on Betja and he can't withdraw it because the site went down without any explanation from the representative. So it's clear an exit scam.

Scammers Profile Link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=2943680

Reference Link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5343931.msg60560015#msg60560015

Flag (Support/Oppose): https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;flag=3142

This is an old case, I create it just for a reference.

OP it is nice you raised up this thread. This will call the attention of participants here to be wary of this casino if they eventually resurface again. Although when I checked, this complaint should be a year and since then there have not been any solution to it. This calls for more caution by participants noting that not all the casino they see are for real and some are just waiting just to delay to make gamblers feel they are real and at given time, they run away with gamblers funds and assets under their custody.

I was thinking if their is any possibility of identifying them if per adventure they resurface again with a different identity so that they can be easily recognized and discarded from the casino space. This I suggest should be taken into cognizance.
2474  Economy / Gambling / Re: NAKAMOTO ROULETTE launched today on: March 22, 2023, 12:16:05 PM
I also received the free sats too but I still have questions to why you want to do away with your casino having a License and to the best of my knowledge, license has to do with your casino undergoing a kyc which is a procedure to know whom the owners are so as to guarantee transparency and credibility in the process of rendering services and other necessities involved but you opted, still yet you do a live online game show while gambling. Although there are some gamblers that are ok with it but not all will find it conducive for them to deal when you do not have any license.

Lastly, your games are just limited for which I believe you are still developing the casino but in the nearest future, I will suggest to also include other games to be playing live while gamblers bet or play to their satisfaction. When you render Services of such nature, you end up getting the needed attraction you have been longing for.
2475  Economy / Gambling / Re: DUELBITS ASK FOR KYC WHEN YOU WANT TO WITHDRAW YOUR EARNED PROFITS on: March 22, 2023, 11:54:43 AM
OP if I may ask you this question, did you make out time to read the policies of the casino you registered with before depositing and playing to win? If you had done that I think you would not have complained in this manner because it would have been clear to you for what you are signing up for and another thing that warrants this actions from casino is a possible change in up address of account holder and I ask again did you use VPN to login your account or you did use it to register your account because that happens, there is a possibility that the account holder is registered from a prohibited nation and hence based in their assumption to get things clear, they request that you do a kyc to verify your identity before you make any withdrawal. So OP I think you should be plain with your complaints if truly you have nothing to hide.
2476  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Looking for INVESTORS on: March 22, 2023, 10:56:10 AM
I dont have complete story, as an investor you can desire any scenarios. I'm able to show you how how far I am. Right now I'm building map editor, so there no actual game yet. But, editor is very close to a complete game anyways. Finished map coding.  Now it's possible to play any size map in the javascript browser.  Can load 4096x4096 maps. Was not easy to do that at all. Even chatGPT was helpless. Just want you to know the difficulty of such map coding.
The game is made using PointJS animated game engine. Why animated, well cause I decided to build the game as animation game.












OP this is near nothing as there is nothing presentable here. I will suggest to you just as others have done to start working on your project. It will be nice that you start up the project with your own funds so as to be fully committed to developing it to a certain stage of operation before thinking of looking for investors to invest in your project. You have a good idea and it is a good business for profit making but the possibility of investment from investors at this stage is narrow just as it was earlier said, scams do happen through this pattern so people are skeptical and being careful these days as not to be scammed of their hard earned resources by scammers.
At this point what I will advise you to do is that you work on your project and have something reasonable to present to investors.

Hi. Is there any one who is still interested nesting into 2D networking strategy game?

Building 2D strategy game for browser in javascript. With the landscape to Transport Tycoon Deluxe. All going well with coding. If inever finish game will be playable in for PC browser and android. Off course the game will be different in scenario than originalmtransport tycoon. Only an isometric map and menus will be simular, but the rest can be anything else. The land can be raised and lowered. Let me know.


OP I see you are a new bie here with few activities. I see your offer is nice and a good one but you did not make any introduction of yourself, I believe for you to have placed such offer, you must have had such deal before why not include or attach your portfolio here so we could see and have clues of your past records if they are ok to go with. This post will not in any way give you your desired results as it does not convince very well to invest in your project. I need something feasible. I really do not have conviction of this you have posted here. Kindly do well to update us here with more information about your project and what we should look out for. State your terms of agreement so we could know and if it interests us we invest and if we want adjustment in your agreement terms, we negotiate. This is business, you have to spell it out.
2479  Economy / Gambling / Re: 1xbit1.com - New 1xbit.com management - We will try to solve all the problems - on: March 21, 2023, 08:24:21 PM
OP I believe you know what you signed up for. You see this casino which you claimed changed management is not what you think they are. Did the new management really looked into the activities of the casino they are signing up for? This casino has a bad reputation already on this platform and to be honest for years this casino been flagged and tagged with lots of complaints from their clients of being scammed of their hard earned resources and winnings as well.  OP I think you should know that already because you must have been given a brief before you took over as  their representative here. So be ready if you can because your casino chances are narrow.

I like your subtle advise given for the new manager to have a brief on what's already on ground of which I believe the team may or may not have tip him about it, but going by all these i don't think it's something new anymore to him, the casinos already had a bad reputation on the forum and if he's ready to take a responsibility then he should know what's ahead but the question now is not all about the manager but the casino itself, those behind the management are the ones that should be the first agent of change in their doings.
There is no need to waste your time on advising ops, as ops are fake and don't acquire the company so there is no need to advise him on the liabilities of the company.

-The account is already red tagged which looks appropriate in thos situation,  to avoid further impersonation and black mailing of reputable forum members just like what ops did to the official 1xbit through their PM.
I leant that the official representative of 1xbit have Come here to let everyone know that the op is a scammer with false claim of acquiring 1xbit.com..
Now, my confusion is, how did this guy made it possible the when one enters 1xbit.com, it automatically redirects to 1xbit1.com just he(the op) stated on the thread??

Though the redirection have stopped now, but it actually does some days back, I tried it myself and it worked, how did he get this to work??

I felt that something fishy is going on with 1xbit. They may have thought that they would redirect their domain name to a new site and tell people that they will resolve all issues with new management, but that plan failed as none of the people here accepted this claim, so they may have abandoned the idea.

It is impossible that you open a site, and it directs to a new site without the owners of 1xbit who configured this redirection configuration. 1xbit are constantly speaking false here.

You are very much correct mate. This you have said I think is what they might likely be up to. They would have taken that strategy to divert the attention of participants here making us think that the ownership has changed hands likewise their representative too making everything to look real and starting afresh with promise to resolve all outstanding complaints and cases so as to win and gain the favor and attention of members here but they forget the adage that says "once bitten, twice shy"  and who do they think they could deceive into falling to their gimmicks.

They told us they have sold their casino who would buy such liability of complaints and scam accused casino with tags and red flag. OP is just joking I guess because we are not kids to fall s cheap to that kangaroo tricks.
2480  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How do you feel selling your BTC against your plans? on: March 21, 2023, 04:14:55 PM

but in the past I helped someone who was in trouble and I even forgot when that happened. but one day I was given a big enough gift that I didn't expect. even though I didn't expect that. even the prize exceeds the money I gave at that time. I had refused the gift. but he persisted and in the end I accepted. the point is if we do good to someone then the kindness will come back to us someday even though we don't expect it.
This you have said OP made me to remember the sayings that says" do to others what you want others to do unto you"   doing good sometimes pay in one way or another. I have had this experience back then my secondary school days when I helped some one who was sick. I bought food and water for the junior student then and I passed out from the school. Later on I met the guy along the road he saw me while driving by and he horned at me I had forgotten that incidence years past and also I could not recognized his face. He stopped and greeted me and asked if I could remember him to be honest I could not because it was an incidence that occurred long ago. He reminded me about it and thanked me for my kind gesture we exchanged contact to my greatest he invited me a certain time I turned it down, the second I was out of town and the third I decided to honor it I had no idea what the meeting was all about to my greatest surprise unknown to me that I was going for a round table business discussion which he wanted me to handle and that's was the second contract I had done so far after my school and it was a good one to talk about.
