How about instead of victim shaming the dude to keep on gambling here, why don't we face the real problem which is 1xbit is not helping him at all with his problem. That seems like the biggest problem here because 1xbit should not be trusted with gambling there as long as they keep doing this sort of thing. Look at their trust rating at this point, they are getting to a dangerous place of being obvious scam and getting banned from here all together, and here you are talking about the guy who got scammed like he did something wrong.

I hope that he gets his money back but I do not see it happening at all. At the end of the day 1xbit is a very risky place to gamble and whoever does it, knowingly or not, should not be victim shamed but helped. We need to create topics about all the problems and how they are not getting solved at all to warn every new gambler.

I would say that it is really not that easy to make sure that you end up with making as much profit as you hope in crypto by considering what the governments of the world will do. If you are a miner, you mine bitcoins and you keep doing that as long as you can, until the very last day that you are allowed (or profitable) because that is what you do, it is what you make money from and you should continue to do that for a long time.

If you believe that china will ban it (already did) then no Chinese miner would have made that money, they would all be going around thinking it will be somehow banned and then they would have not made that much profit until it was banned. Were there some that lost money because they just invested and it got banned right after? Sure there could have been, but there were also huge companies that made billions from this as well.

I disagree with that. Yes you need the news to be relevant, but it’d good that you avoid bad news as much as possible. I know a lot of celebrities this day that bad news has ruined their career and they are now nowhere to be found, nobody talks about them any longer, not even the news, and it looks like they have fallen into a dark pit where they will never return.

Bitcoin is still “young” and the least thing we need now is the news saying bad about Bitcoin, it’s not good. The reason why you’re still seeing bitcoin is because there are lots of good news to cover up for every single bad news that drops. Whenever they say anything bad about Bitcoin, there will always be something good that will happen to prove them wrong. If it has been just bad news, then believe me, by now we might not be talking about Bitcoin any longer. So it’s good to always try and avoid bad news, even if you have seen people who were able to stay relevant with it, the case might not be the same for you.

^^I do not get why KYC is supported by the people, I get casinos why the people? I mean what do you get in return from this? How does it help you out in the long term? Casinos do this because they are both required by law in most cases and that is understandable, but also they want to do it to prevent scammers and hackers to steal money from people, and even in a better situation if you do end up stealing money from other people somewhere else, like let's say in an exchange or defi or whatever then you can't just put your money on roobet and withdraw it because there is KYC and you will be asked to provide your information as a hacker and you can't. However these all benefit the casino, regular people like me who are not hackers or anything should not be forced to give our KYC, I can promise you that even on small amounts roobet asks for KYC, and that just doesn't make sense.

It has increased wonderfully and I do like it, however we should realize that it is so far away from the 8+ dollars it once was, and there is a long way to go there. I assume that it could break that in the very long term if we have another bull, it is like 2x to go and many altcoins can easily do that given enough hype, but an old coin getting a brand new hype is usually not a common thing, which is why I do not think that it could do that anytime soon.

Definitely maybe on the next bull run instead of this one it could reach those levels, even without hype having two bull runs increase your price will give you a huge return but that means it will take a few years for it to get there. I would say that the best case would be to look for other coins that could eventually give a return that makes sense in the short term instead of looking at coins like Tezos.

Even spot trading is not something you should do if you are not very smart about it, I personally try to stay away from it as much as I can, try to avoid it as long as I can because it makes no sense to trade without having the courage and the data to back you up, so if I know what I am doing on certain trades I do it, but I do not chase trades, I just put my data requirements there, and if anything hits then I trade and that's it.

When spot trading is this hard, and not everyone makes money, then what is the point of someone actually going for futures trading, there are already so little amount of people that make profit consistently on spot trading, and only a handful of ones in them make money consistently on futures trading. I am not saying making a profit, I am saying consistently making profit because everyone could make a profit once in a while.

I respect that you took the time to explain it but I don't know why people cannot google such simple things because creating a thread just to learn stop-loss is really tiring. If something unique is asked, I can understand that Google may not have enough information about that topic but stop-loss is a very basic aspect of trading.

It was hard to understand what you were trying to say but after reading the comment 3-4 times, I have an idea what you mean. Actually stop-loss saves you from potential zero but it always takes away chances of recovery. I am not against stop-loss but facts are facts.

Think about it this way, when you build a new casino what is the most important thing an owner needs to do? Get as many people to gamble in his casino as possible. What is a better marketing strategy than "come here, you get to gamble and see boobies as well!!" it is literally the most genius way of doing marketing ever. You don't even have to have a casino with live nude women neither, just do a regular casino with just videos, gifs, pictures of women and you will still get a great marketing out of it as well.

This is why I believe that people should not be really shocked to learn that people are willing to start nsfw casinos. Of course downside is that people play it hidden from everyone else, you do not end up gambling at a sexy casino on the bus, you can do slots with fruits easily without getting worried but not nude women, that would be illegal in most cases as well.

I think people are buying such NFT artworks for the same purpose that they will buy it in real life. I also used to wonder why people would pay for actual artworks and with time I started to understand why. Some of them are being bought as a collection and people will use them to form a collection library, as time goes on these people may decide to sell these collections and make money from it as well, the worth will keep increasing.

So, NFT imitates the same thing, they are buying them as a collection and they might decide to sell them later, whatever their choice may be. And also I think that you can also profit from NFT artworks you buy when people download and share any artwork you own.

It is literally all about hype and demand, nothing more. The moment axie infinity people start caring about making more money there, the moment they realize they just want to cash out, the price of everything there will fall and it will not make people too much money.

Right now it costs so much to breed a new one, but same was true for cryptokitties back in the day, it was highly expensive to breed a new one and that is why all of them were expensive, sometime in the future, people start to not buy too many axies, the demand for it goes down, people do not want to pay 200-300 just for one of them, this causes all the axies on market not to be sold, and then people start to drop their prices to sell, and when that drops the cost drops with it because people will not buy SLP for a lot of money and then make a loss when they sell, all in all everything falls, and the market starts to suck. That is just one game, this will happen to the whole market one day, maybe tomorrow, maybe in 3 years, who knows?

I believe it is definitely going to be a long season and there will definitely be a lot of 0-0 that's true, BUT the reason why I said this was the fact that someone won from the very first week, and that caused a lot of people to believe that it is quite simple. Not only the fact that 7/7 is hard, like even if there were goals in every match, you need to know 7 of the scorers in all those 7 matches and that is as incredibly difficult as it gets.

However, on top of that we are talking about all those games where there are zero zero results and own goals as well like you said, so that means that we have double the trouble, not only 7 scorers, but also the fact that some weeks are cancelled already is the biggest trouble. In any case, it is free entry, so even if it goes like that, who cares what is going on and just enjoy it, not like we will ever lose money here.

PSG is paying so much for Messi and all other players, that could be one of the reasons. Mbappe is not getting that much in offers, if you offer Mbappe 50 million a year, or 70 million a year, I do not think that there is any chance that he would ever leave, but if you offer him 20-30 then he is going to refuse it because he could get that from anywhere else in the world.

This is why I believe that we should be looking into why PSG not offering that much money, did Mbappe refused a 70 million a year offer from PSG? No he didn't, which means that the ball is still on PSG court and I think they could convince him. PSG is not selling him, if you are not selling him for 150-160 then you are not going to sell him for anything, not like Real could offer 500 or something, the max they would do is 200 and these teams are wealthy as hell and they do not need extra 40-50 million, they could make that easily with sale of one more player they are not even playing.

I have mixed feelings about this. Look he has been a great commentator no doubt but he wasn't that great of a player and he had spats in past with Mohammas Yousuf which shows he can lose his mind too because if you see the entire drama around these two, it's clear that Ramiz was at fault.

I have always been an advocate of assigning good players as chairman and coaches because someone who has played the sport with passion will usually never put a foot wrong as a chairman.

I hope he does well and doesn't let his personal problems come in the way of the players.

The term "cryptocurrency investments" is tricky because while I agree that the price and worth of bitcoins will only increase in the future, I am not so sure about other cryptos including Ethereum because there are better alternatives coming out daily and there are those transaction fees and congestion problem on the Ethereum network. Every coin has some issues like XRP had problems with SEC and not sure if any progress was made to solve them.

I guess BTC holdings are going to get you positive results no matter what but the same can't be said for every other cryptocurrency. If anyone is looking to invest in the future value of crypto, please go for Bitcoin.

Yeah, but you must also factor in the fact that with the market cap getting bigger each day, it is not possible to see the same growth rate now as we are probably used to seeing from past years.

I give you a small example to explain.

If the market cap is $1000 for a coin, it only takes a $1000 "need" in the market to double the price. If the market cap is $10,000 the same need of $1000 will only help the price by 10%.

I hope this makes sense, I am not sure if the example is accurate but it should suffice to explain my point.

You can add another factor to the list.

- competitors doing better

I love roobet but there are so many casinos now days offering so many races and promotions that players are quite split among all the casinos and obviously everyone gets an email from all the casinos and the player opts to play under the most favorable conditions.

Identity verification has also contributed a lot but I don't think "crypto holding decisions" have anything to do with the decrease in wagers. Not sure why every gambling site is focussing so much on verification. Is that something with the license providers or what?

I have almost a similar style in terms of trading. I use my desktop and software installed on it to trade all day but if I need to cash some profits or look out how some trades are going, I open the exchange application on my mobile and check it quickly. Sometimes I need to make payments and I directly send from the exchange, although it costs a few extra bucks.

But, the problem I often feel trading on mobile is that the application often times gets frozen and I end up clicking the screen to no avail which later results in some unwanted clicks. For example, you click the screen 5 times but it performs the action after 20 seconds, it just messes up things for me.

Teaching your kids about trading also helps them understand the value of money. This is the reason you will see someone who comes from a poor background will always have the mindset of working hard while someone who was born with a silver spoon will never have the working mentality and will spend money recklessly.

I agree but there is no harm in suggesting to them some options you know from your own experience are good enough. You must help them explore the options and let them pick the ones they are interested in.

There is a common misconception that we must NOT be greedy. I don't really agree with this concept completely, especially in the crypto market. Look I am not saying we should lose all the money to our greed but there are coins that go 100x regularly and if you aren't greedy enough to reap the rewards, you will probably cash them at 2-5x at best.

It might be a good idea to sell some coins at 2x then some more at 5x and so on until you have reaped the maximum possible value. It may drop at a certain point after reaching 5-10x but at least you are still in profit and you gave yourself the best chance of making the highest profits too.

You know almost all the crypto sportsbooks have the same odds provider. yes, I am not even kidding right now. Stake, Bitsler, Sportsbet(io) and others have the same odds provider which means if you had issues with betting on bitsler, you won't be most likely able to place the bets on another sportsbook either.

I am a huge e-sports fan and make a lot of bets. Recently I have noticed that none of the three sportsbooks I mentioned above including bitsler are not offering odds all LNG matches. For those who are unaware, LNG is a professional league of legends team that participates in LPL tournament held in China. I wandered across all the sites but none of the crypto sportsbook were offering odds for LNG matches. Not sure why.
