1. No KYC
2. Anonymous gambling.
3. Instant deposit and withdrawals.
4. ETC....

What do you think about its chances.
KYC and anonymous betting are not happening even with crypto-only-houses. They do ask to clear KYC for some reasons. My spouse got rewards into a gambling account for promoting them in this forum but when tried to withdraw the funds they catch and asks for KYC for no gambling inovolved. But, we solved the situation by explaining no-deposits were made but the funds are rewards hence that rule will not be applicable. I mean these days all crypto gambling houses are too keen to make us clear KYC things.

Instant deposits and withdraws are possible with fiats as well. I am trying to say these are not new just because of crypto adoption. Moreover, bitcoin payments need at least 10 minutes and I am afraid hard core gamblers are ready account this 10 minute delay as instant.

Overall, if crypro gets power to replace fiats in our day to day life then it will replace in gambling industry as well.

They changed like 3-4 captains after Ab De villiers. Last captain was Quinton De Cock.
What they could do after draining out of talents thanks to kolpak deals? They are really struggling to build a team like how they enjoyed during the times of 90's and early 2000's. But, this time they turned to a black captain which must be an appreciating move from CSA.

Game seems pretty much over for Pakistan. Don't think this middle order can do some wonder here for the team.
But Fakhar Zaman is still batting from the opening which might the last hope for Pakistan. I am not seeing big depth in lower orders in Pakistan's line up hence getting 11.3 runs per over from the remaining 11 overs may not be possible today. After letting South Africa to score 341 runs, I guess Pakistan players might have got morally demotivated for chasing this much big total which simply reflected on their middle orders.

I think wolf.bet doesn't need to run their signature campaign again as their traffic site is enough / popular than before. But yea i noticed it too they would running it again on the future just like Haunebu said above.

Anyway, lets focus disscuss about wolfbet instead other gambling site on here.
Technically speaking coca cola doesn't need any ads neither by that logic, nor apple would need one. Basically no company that is known already wouldn't need any marketing. I am not saying the only marketing wolf.bet does is signature campaign, of course they spend money on other stuff as well but the reality is that if we do not have anything that is just niche that would not be full. They can or they may not end up doing a signature campaign here ever again, but if they end up doing it that doesn't really mean that it would hurt them a lot neither, it would be beneficial for them.

Of course it could cost them more than it helps them, but at least they would be still at the minds of the gamblers, even if they do not come now, they could come back later when they have a problem with their current casino. Which is why it is definitely a good idea, but not a "must have" idea at all.
2524  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Hafthor Bjornsson vs Alex Simon exhibition fight on: April 03, 2021, 07:14:29 PM
Well, if there is going to be some exhibition matches, I rather see these types of famous peoples fights, Thor is not really "that" famous of course but at least he was on Game of Thrones and played the Mountain and that's good enough for me, and he is also very well known in the strongman competitions but not everyone in the world is aware of that, at least not as much aware of game of thrones of course.

This is why I think it's quite obvious that famous people fighting would be a lot more fun. I wish there was more fights like these, it would be a lot more fun to watch these type of celebs, even if at Thor level celebs to end up fighting, that would be incredibly fun to watch. I can't say that it would better, it's definitely worse, but it would be still quite fun to end up watching these things and that's why I think it's going to have a lot of betting as well.
2525  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do you like Volatility? Debate on: April 03, 2021, 05:02:24 PM
-Do You Consider Volatility to be an opportunity Where you can buy more coins and hold them for later
              OR
-Do you think that Volatility is unnecessary and should be leveled to match the market fiats so that Bitcoins can finally be stable and used as a currency.
It seems that you are missing another scenario like gradual appreciation of bitcoin rather than having wide fluctuations. Yes, it is different from being stable. Being stable is always having same value whereas gradual appreciation is something we all want to have without going down time to time.

We like or not, all the commodities are having volatile nature because of its price influencing factors. I'm sure bitcoin will never have stable value even after all 21 million bitcoin mined out. Because, even after centuries of adoption gold is not attaining stable price but relatively stable because of wide adoption hence same thing will be applicable for bitcoin as well. Bitcoin will remain volatile and the level of volatility may differ over the course of time.

So, we must need to like the volatile nature of bitcoin regardless of we are making use of that volatile nature for our profit making or not.
2526  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: I'm wondering who trades with paid signals? on: April 03, 2021, 04:24:35 PM
Are there people here who want to join a team of traders and receive tone signals?
Inexperienced traders who are all not comfortable in generating their own signal due to lack of knowledge in technical/fundamental analysis, might be preferring buying signals to risk their hard earned capital. I am sure there are plenty of signal providers in all segment of trading (not just in crypto trading); because this must be a billion-dollar industry where people are simply giving buying and selling levels with zero risk for them.

I was follow some free signal in my beginning. But the true is, I can't make actual profit from that. I don't know much about paid signal. From my opinion, Market analyzing and research is everything in trading.
Even you might have traded with the paid signals, the final results in your trading might not have big changes. I mean both free signals and paid signals are not entitled for big profits even they are claiming 95% accuracy with paid services.

Yeah, the ability of generating trading signal must be the core part of successful/profitable trading. When you are missing that core part then definitely you cannot expect profitable results in longer run. Even you are buying signals, you must have the capability to verify them rather than blindly believing into someone else.

I just found out what Bitcoin is and how it can be used 
Good, now you also need to understand that there are various exchanges where you can exchange Bitcoins, and manual trades like Binance P2P can be used to buy Bitcoins. There are others but I am hesitant to share them because I only trust this one.

I want to buy bitcoin for him, but which bitcoin should I buy?
Are you buying for someone else? Him? By the way which Bitcoin .. I think you are confused between bitcoins and altcoins. There is only one Bitcoin with ticker of BTC while others are its successors. Make sure you don't buy a useless coin, be careful please.

Where best to follow the Bitcoin market. Can you write comments that might help me with these things?!  Huh Huh
Like I said, use Binance because it is right now the easiest and safest exchange. You should also learn a little bit about what is Bitcoin and how altcoins work because one mistake might hand you some shit coins and you may lose faith in cryptos as a whole.

It's been a long time since I finally got a bigger win from a simple freespin.
I already thought that it was broken...  Grin Cheesy
Phewwwww, that was so close @SiNeReiNZzz that would be easy $200 when you got that 10k number. Freebitco.in saying "maybe the next time champ".
It is definitely more wheels, plus more interest, so this makes it back very easily. If you are a very rich person, like let's say you are capable of putting 1000 bitcoins here and collect investment (don't even know if it is possible to deposit that much and collect interest) that means you will make 40 bitcoins per year, and that is 0.1 bitcoins per day, that is over 5 thousand dollars a day.

If you however end up buying fun tokens and get that higher, we are talking about making that fun token difference back in a day, all thanks to higher interest. Now of course we are not that rich, at least not most of us, but that doesn't mean that we shouldn't do it neither, when you are richer like that it gives back quicker but when you are poorer it is still good. Wheel also could make you rich over night, you could suddenly win that rolex watch and become a lot richer suddenly.
2529  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What age bracket is perfect for gambling on: April 02, 2021, 04:26:07 PM
In situations where the child cannot be convinced to wait till he gets emotionally matured or attend a certain age before gambling what could be the best approach and how could one help such a child manage his/her losses most especially in situations where the child gets so addicted to gambling.

Cases of this nature arise daily in our society. Younger children engage in gambling this days compared to adults and I believe its to late to stop them so what approach do we embibe to help the younger ones mange their finance and prevent them from lossing more than the can afford to loose.
I think elders are definitely a bit better than everyone else, it is not the main demographic because they are older and not really after so much money, but the amount of bets they do could be higher than any other even if the amount of money they wager may not be the biggest. This is what I imagine could be the case but I can't really say that I can guarantee something like that, which is why I am just saying I am predicting something like this and not saying that is the right answer.

If we could end up with something that would give us the data for it, we could actually see it, and I am sure there are many casinos that have these data and that could be very helpful for us to understand who gambles the most but without getting those things we are not going to have anything that would be helpful for us at all and we will only make guesses but with a data showing it we could get more help.
2530  Economy / Economics / Re: I'm afraid of the crypto craze in Korea. on: April 02, 2021, 03:24:59 PM
I like how you are always open to opinions TP. I need to add that for all the hate that is reserved for "shitcoins", the only thing related to Bitcoin that has actually made the "poor" better off in the last few years is this forum. That again is not because the forum introduces people to bitcoin but because it introduces them to crazy alt-coins and blockchain games where you can farm crypto.
 
With the airdrop season on Ethereum and other chains, people who have been engaged have gotten fair rewards compared to those who just stuck to bitcoin. Those who ventured past gained better understanding and are earning better. The maximalist position of denial has really been shitty for those who believe in it.
The fact that poor could still end up winning something from crypto matters, look at so many altcoins that have gone up a lot in the recent months, chilliz, holo and many other stuff, if you are lucky you could make a great profit from altcoins. Bitcoin is good as well you could make a decent profit from that, not as much as you used to but you could still double your money here.

This is why I think it is quite important that we end up realizing what we are looking for in crypto. I believe it is quite obvious that we do not end up with something unrealistic, if you are looking to turn 1 into 500 that is not going to happen but if you are looking to turn 1 into 3 that could be possible. This is the reason which pushes me to think that we should be focusing on that instead of trying to achieve something that will not come at all. Of course you could shoot for the skies if you want to but you are not going to get it unless you are super lucky.
2531  Economy / Economics / Re: What's Next? After Bitcoin Passes The 60K Mark...... on: April 02, 2021, 02:51:38 PM
Not just the whales that will become richer from crypto, but all people who involve in the crypto will also become rich. But that is only for people who can use the time to make a profit from crypto. But most people are hard to take profit, especially if they already see their coin can increase higher because some of them want to make more profit. But I am sure that the bitcoin price will go to be $100k, whether it will happen this month, this year or next year. We can just wait and prepare for that by making more and more bitcoin.
I would like to print this message and put it as a poster everywhere in the world. You have said something right in every sentence of that message. Yes it is going to profit all of us and yes we are all going to be profiting from it and yes there are people who are eager to make way too much money and miss their chances and yes there are too many people who end up with nothing because they are too scared. I can't explain how much we should be caring about the current situation.

I think bitcoin will be 100k very soon but let's assume it is not I can say that it will be 100k+ eventually, maybe in a year maybe next year so I agree that we will get there anyway, don't know when and how but I know it will definitely happen. This is why I agree with your message and every part of it for sure without a doubt. I think people should see this message everywhere.
2532  Economy / Gambling / Re: bustabit – The original crash game on: April 01, 2021, 03:51:20 PM
I think it is obvious that many people missed on bitcoin chance

It's not obvious to me at all. Isn't it possible that there are still significant gains to be made on Bitcoin?
Not like we used to. I mean I agree that you could triple your money in bitcoin even if you buy now, you could even 10x in the long run, those are huge gains and I agree. However lets face it, there were people who bought under 100 dollars and the price is over 50k easily right now, that means people made insane returns, returns that will never happen, which is why I think people did missed their chances to make that kind of return, you can't just put few thousand and become a millionaire, that is long gone for sure. This is why I think it is clear that some people are trying to over risk what they are doing and trying to make that kind of return.

Investing into a casino is a great idea to do that, house always wins so being the house means they will always win and that is why making a decision to not leave here makes sense to me as well.

100% raffle and some highroller wins it and 5 other prices, just like last time.

And mid raffle they will change the rules again, first saying 1 ticket per person can win and in the end 1 person can win with several tickets, just like last time.

Not impressed.

Oh man you remember it right I hope one of the admin sees this and considers it  Smiley no problem having many tickets, but if win more than one ticket, the participant must choose one of the prizes it is fairer than before where one participant wins 4 prizes.
I remember that I have told you guys long time ago that this place became whale place and nobody listened. This is a way to get the whales interested again, it is always like that, raffle ended up being a whale heaven as well. One ticket per person means that even if you are the richest guy around here, you could win the top prize and that's it nothing more and that's if you are lucky.

However 1 person can win everything that means whales who spend a lot of money will end up winning multiple prizes so they will be at advantage and that's why they did it, they want to look good for their whales, which is why I think it is obvious that we are not going to see it changed, because they care about their whales who are the real people who lose money to them. I get that it could be a good business decision to court whales but that's going to lose a lot of business like mine and similar people.
2534  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Short term solid projects? on: March 31, 2021, 08:05:30 AM
Hey, what would you recommend to buy and keep for 6 months? I have BTC, ETH, Dash, Monero, Litecoin, Tezos.

Which altcoins do you recommend for few months?
Myself and you know very well that from that list you have there that Bitcoin is outperforming all those cryptocurrencies you have listed there, so it shouldn’t be a question as to which you should be buying. If you don’t want to buy Bitcoin then Ethereum is the next option.

But for me Bitcoin is the best option to invest in right now, I don’t think the bull run will be over anytime soon you just gotta watch and see. Although I do know that altcoins will soon have their season, but for now, the season is for Bitcoin and it’s the best investment you’re going to make now.
2535  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to win at roulette? on: March 29, 2021, 04:16:48 PM
What exactly do you mean by having the odds on your favor? In gambling, particularly in games of chance like roulette, the odds will never be on your favor. It will not happen because the house has the edge. It cannot be reverted and make the edge shift on your side. You are always the underdog in games such as roulette. Even if you place multiple bets and take higher risks in the process, the odds will not transfer to your side.
Not just roulette but any game and even sports betting. I fail to understand why people cannot realize that betting is meant for fun and if there was any strategy that existed and worked for making constant money with gambling, the casinos would have been closed by now and the person would have eaten all the casinos by now.

There are some things you can do though to increase your chances on roulette, like avoid betting on a single number and don't chase big odds. I would say bet on the set of numbers or just go for even-odd and see what were the past numbers, I know the new result is independent and not affected by the previous rolls/results but still, I feel there is a good chance if odd has been coming for 5 times, 6th time even might appear or on the 7th time.

I rather prefer dice though because it has the lowest edge and pretty fast.
2536  Economy / Economics / Re: America stimulus support add strength to the dollar as investment increase on: March 29, 2021, 03:06:11 PM
No matter what the situation, the government will never give up their stimulus package even if it benefits the people it will hurt the government the impact of fiat is strong everywhere it is used in all countries, so the government supports the fiat currency and increases the strength of the dollar by increasing investment. The trade deficit between the two countries has narrowed significantly since the start of trade investment although it is still much higher however in order to reduce the deficit, the trade between the two countries has decreased by about ten trillion dollars.
I still think that it is obvious dollar is not as strong as claimed, sure you could show me some charts that show that it is profitable but the reality is that we are not there, the reality of someone who goes to work and comes back home will know the difference, their life is more expensive and their life is harder as well, there are much more people who are unemployed and many more that are making a lot less as well, people who used to be considered middle class is no longer available, there are people who barely survive and there are very rich people, the middle is very few nowadays.

So, just because there are people who work 2 jobs and barely survive, doesn't mean that there is no economical problem, that on paper looks like they are surviving but that's not alright with me. This is why I do not believe the charts that indicate dollar is strong, because life is not looking like economy is strong.
2537  Economy / Economics / Re: Biden planning first tax hike(major) since 1993 on: March 29, 2021, 11:22:41 AM
Still it is 14%. In my country (India) it is estimated that the actual amount of income tax owed is more than 2 times the annual collection, meaning an evasion rate of more than 50%. And I am sure that this is the case with most of the developed nations. The tax rates are kept extremely high (43% for the top slab), and government has made gambling, crypto trading.etc as illegal. And there is a stupid loophole to make agricultural income tax free. A lot of people use this loophole to avoid paying taxes on their income from other sources (they just show it as agricultural income).
The difference between USA and in all other nations is that if you do not have a branch of government like IRS trying to catch every single tax evasion and charge insane punishments for it to deter people away from doing that. India may or may not have that, but I know almost all huge European nations do not have that.

On top of it, this is a thing that impacts very wealthy, they will have to pay a lot more taxes now that Biden puts this in charge (when) and that means IRS needs more money because the more money you give to IRS the more money they find and give back to community, so giving money to IRS is not a bad idea

Right now IRS is underfunded and needs more money, they may not find everyone and they may not end up stopping some rich people, but if they could actually get funded, and given more powers, they could stop everyone from tax evasion, from the small grocery store right around the corner to amazon, everyone.
2538  Economy / Speculation / Re: Upcoming Market Prediction (Market heading for a great downfall) on: March 28, 2021, 03:49:44 PM
I think Bitcoin is a game changer. It has been a great investment since inception.

The future value of Bitcoin will be higher than its present value, but it is highly speculative and volatile. The best place for you to invest is to buy when there is news that makes Bitcoin rise in value dramatically, and sell when you buy more than you need for later investments.
That's the sad part about bitcoin. It was always a great decision to buy bitcoin, ever since it was created, but I was both too late to buy too early, but I did reached when it was only one hundred dollars and even with that knowledge I didn't buy, because I didn't think it would be 50k+ dollars, that is more profit than I could ever imagine. Hell let that alone, I had about 10 bitcoins when it crashed in 2018, if I kept them all I would have been 500k+ dollar richer right now, that is more than enough for me to be super happy about it. But I didn't, why?

Because, I needed money for personal stuff and instead of working I realized I could stay at home and freelance and used that money for house needs,  not a bad reason to spend your bitcoin because we all need to eat, but I could have looked for a job and get employed and could kept my bitcoins as well.
2539  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin going down $50k soon, what's next? on: March 28, 2021, 02:58:32 PM
Nothing will happen if bitcoin price falls below $50,000 because the bitcoin price will recover very soon since the American government will start giving out the Stimulus checks of $1.9 trillion dollars in the next month of April 2021. I think what you have seen was the normal market behavior, the market is used to go up and down and that's normal because there is nothing wrong with it. You need to remember the bitcoin price will always recover!
Great username mate. I do agree that price going under 50k is not a big deal at all. Last time we went under, we went from 58k to 43k and broke over 61k, this should basically tell people what they need to do know about the current situation in bitcoin but they are ignoring it and that is the problem, people should not be worried about something like this at all.

I have been involved with crypto for years now and I can say that bear run is nowhere to be found just yet, we are doing fine and we will keep doing fine for a long time as well. The bear run only comes when there is a huge news and a bad huge news happens. Like let's say grayscale or microstrategy decides to get out of bitcoin and sell all their coins, if that happens it will definitely be bad, I agree with that, but it is not, there is nothing like that, so we should be fine and I am still hopeful.
2540  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Crypto trading signal work or not? on: March 28, 2021, 01:50:16 PM
I just want to join paid crypto trading group..anyone pls tell me ,this type of group doing scam or not? and does it work?

Signal group, as in signal for when the pump happens?, if it's just that then the answer is no, they do not work, mostly because bots will be buying the mentioned coin/token way faster than you and you will probably end up buying the top most of the time and there's actually more chance of losing money.

But if you're thinking about one of the TA guys that just send buy signals on good trading set ups then that's another story and the best would be to follow some of their free calls and see how they do and whether it's worth it, the good thing about following these signals is that you learn some Technical analysis along the way too and you're not just following signals blindly.
There was this telegram pump and dump group back in the day, they picked some low volume coin on poloniex if I am not wrong (this is a veeeery old story when poloniex was number one after cryptsy was recently hacked) and that meant that people actually ended up using a system on that telegram group where depending on the result of a blockchain hash at each day on the certain hour, there would be a coin picked. So, if it was 0 it was x coin and if it was 1 it was y coin and that type of thing.

This way nobody knew how it would be done and nobody would be able to buy beforehand and nobody made a bigger profit than others by cheating the system. Of course it wasn't as simple as that and eventually people started to build bots to acknowledge and trade accordingly, which is why many people started to lose money and system started not work so they disbanned it as a whole.
