2541  Other / Off-topic / Re: Zlatan Ibrahimovic sueing EA due to using his image on FIFA21 on: November 27, 2020, 08:31:16 AM
This is interesting.
Probably similar to movie producers  using the "likeness" of real people for the movies. I wonder if that is copyrighted or whether they need permission from their owners to do so. Well, for certain reasons, I don't think I will allow people to do thesame thing with my "likeness" without my permission.
Hopefully, the player is doing that for good/moral reason rather than for money.
2542  Economy / Gambling / Re: SatoshiDice is not Provably Fair betting on 1000x on: November 27, 2020, 08:15:01 AM


The fact that the transfer happens right away, Yh, I agree that's dodgy but I'm afraid because it is all internal not many people would know much out of hand like this.

I believe these instant transfers also happen to other Casinos.  I checked my deposit on the blockchain from time to time (while waiting for the fund to be credited) whenever I deposit to any Casino and I noticed that some of them transfer funds to other address instantly whenever a confirmation is done.  Though, the one that is very alarming is the server seed being empty.  It is indeed suspicious.

Once I know about server seed tx being empty, I stop betting on SD and did some research. Yes it was more suspicious for me as well. I think they can manipulate dice roll if there is server seed tx is empty.   


I guess they are meant to publish the "server seed tx" as proof they really used provable fair but they didn't publish it, right? You should also ask them why it wasn't published. If they claim provable fair on their site but didn't use the provable fair for your bets, that means the bet probably can't be trusted. But you should first all  inquire to be sure whether they use or didn't use the feature
2543  Other / Off-topic / The danger of calling companies owned by individuals or group of people "Private Companies" on: November 26, 2020, 06:36:42 PM
How can Companies that are open to the public, serve the People of a Nation and supposed to be subjected to national laws be called Private Companies? They are Public Companies owned and run by individuals or group of people "once they are opened to the Public." No need to be called "Private" anymore as they are now serving the Public & have to be transparent/accountable to them. What do they need to be private for when they serve thousands/millions of people? What are they hiding? They should be subjected to all good/reasonable laws of Nations they serve . All rules made by such companies should be in harmony with the basic national laws and principles. This won't stop them from running very effectively and profitably.

If you allow such companies to be run privately(instead of openly/publicly) you could be indirectly excluding them from just laws that could make them to be very transparent, accountable to the public/law, etc .. Imagine an evil, non-transparent and non-accountable company growing too large and powerful in a country that values transparency and accountability. That is dangerous.

Isn't the One Coin an Alternative Coin/cryptocurrency(Altcoin) rather than "fake Bitcoin"? Your use of "Fake Bitcoin" make things sound like she made a replica of Bitcoin to deceive people into thinking it's Bitcoin. Or did she call it Bitcoin?
2545  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Voskcoin going Solar with POW Mining? Wise or Not? on: November 26, 2020, 03:43:38 PM
He's probably taking a big risk if he considers the Return on his minining Investment and investing when mining is not very profitable. I'd only consider such investment if I have other more profitable businesses that the solar power can be switched to when coin mining becomes unprofitable. In my opinion, Mining equipments  should be built to serve other purposes, just in case mining becomes unprofitable. Multi purposes usage of these equipments could make them profitable and very useful long-term

How often will the 1-2% be paid, when price reaches a certain height or anytime price goes up? What if price goes up multiple times a day? What exactly will the funds be used for and how do you access them, considering you said that investors own/hold their funds in their wallets.
2547  Economy / Economics / Re: What if there is a natural disaster, such as an earthquake? on: November 26, 2020, 10:38:39 AM
we know if a country experiences a natural disaster, the economy will be temporarily paralyzed. because of the many damaged road access and also damaged buildings which caused the economic collapse and of course that made the country's economy go down. my question is, does it have a big effect on crypto state? we know that there is no need for a way to go, and a wide place for incapacity. but when a disaster occurs, it is likely that the signal will be lost and difficult to access. and if the recovery process takes place long after the disaster, how is the condition of Kripro that might occur?

I will be very happy with your opinion

Unless it's armageddon, I don't see any impact at all it will not have an effect if it's only 2 places it will not have an impact at all in the market, the market is not dependent on one or two locations, Cryptocurrency trading is everywhere, traders are scattered everywhere, in the city, in the county in a mountain, and where Crypto is available to trade, I hope there will no earthquake because it's a disaster but over all no impact in the market.




Ofcourse. And a true Crypto world should be very  mobile and distributed around the world.
Cryptocurrencies should encourage mostly mobile-friendly network developments and participations . I would be worried once part of a Cryptocurrency main system/infrastructure is becoming fixed, hard to easily move to different locations, less mobile or non-mobile.
2548  Economy / Economics / Re: this pandemic have made me do research on things i never tought before economy on: November 26, 2020, 09:16:20 AM
I guess they are anticipating a shortage in goods and services due to high demand from customers, or due to Increase in consumer's spending. Well, I'd encourage consumers to save more aggressively and work-harder to produce more goods/services(mainly local/home-made goods and services).
2549  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Poker Site Buys $100 Million of Bitcoin Every Month to Pay Players in BTC on: November 26, 2020, 08:55:20 AM
I guess the poker site has option to cash out (or pay customers) in multiple currencies and it seems many more of their customers recently started demanding to cash out in Bitcoin due to the price rally... so the site has to buy lots of bitcoins to meet customers demands. That is very interesting.
2550  Economy / Gambling / Re: BITRUN - PREDICT THE PRICE OF BITCOIN AND WIN BITCOIN on: November 26, 2020, 08:43:24 AM
Just playing free mode, it's hard to get the precise,

Code:
0.001 BTC	- 0.001 BTC	19313.01	LONG > 19315.08	19313.03	11/25/2020 10:35

I bet long and the locked price 19313.01 then the final price is 19313.03,  Grin

how they calculate the mid-range? Is there a random range?

interesting. 
Will likely try free mode too to better understand the game. Just felt the need to test  it after watching the video tutorial. There are features I expect are included on the platform...  Hope they are included.
2551  Economy / Gambling / Re: Cloudbet forced verification stuck for more than 10 days on: November 26, 2020, 08:01:12 AM
UPDATE: My issue has been resolved.



Happy for you. Hope you are careful next time especially with the amount of money you deposit. I wouldn't deposit lots of funds on any platform without making sure I properly understand their ToS and that I meet the requirements.  Also, better to only deposit what you can afford to risk.
2552  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How the Bitcoin shortage benefits crypto investors on: November 25, 2020, 03:28:28 PM
- but will it make the cryptocurrency less accessible for everyday people who don't have millions of dollars to plug into electricity money death?


Does it matter if big/small investors buy 1million dollars worth of bitcoins or $10 worth of bitcoin?  It will be accessible as there will always be people willing to sell at their desired prices. Besides, both the small and big investors will gain or lose bitcoins in proportion to their investments during price fluctuations.
2553  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Ways against BTC confiscation. on: November 25, 2020, 03:02:44 PM
Well, you can't show them(or anyone else) your coins until they prove they are within their legal/moral limit to confiscate them. If they are trying to seize the coins illegally, you have the right to refuse to tell any of them you own any coin (without lying), whether you really own bitcoins or not. But if they are within their legal/moral limit and ask what the law allows them to ask, I will tell the truth. I will have to be sure they have the right to ask every question they ask.
If you are trying to seize the bitcoin illegally, and ask me if I own bitcoins or how much I own & where they are, I will simply reply that whether I own bitcoins (or any other asset) or not is a private matter.
2554  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: I have a few bucks left to gamble - which coins for high rewards? on: November 25, 2020, 10:50:27 AM
Is the "few buck" all you have left in your entire savings or just in Crypto space? If yes, I would advice you use it for better things or invest it in something that will most likely yield you profits in the future rather than gamble with it for fun or on projects you are not sure about their successes.
 I guess you want to invest, in hope to be lucky with huge gains? I'd probably invest long-term in such projects (good projects) with the "few buck" once I'm sure they will do well in the future.
2555  Economy / Economics / Re: What if there is a natural disaster, such as an earthquake? on: November 25, 2020, 09:39:39 AM
It will only be an isolated incident that could take place like it could only happen to a certain place. But if the earthquake is reall huge that it covers the whole world then forget all bitcoin, gold and your investments and focused on survival. Bitcoin, gold and other asset of yours could no longer save you instead the basic needs like food and water that if you are lucky enough to have survive the earthquake.


I would say affected Network Users should secure their devices (should be mobile and light devices) with synced Bitcoin/crypto nodes and other decentralized networks nodes.. . so that users can probably continue using Bitcoin/crypto and other decentralized systems/networks locally when things return to normal where they reside.   I think Decentralized Networks/systems should be built in such a way that local usage (without global users) can be possible. Local users can reestablish/connect with global users (as long as their applications haven't been tampered with.) once internet is possible or restored worldwide.


Ofcourse, we need to have secured sources for food, water, medicine etc... the decentralized network would also help lots of people reestablish normal life quickly.
2556  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you believe NBA is rigged? on: November 25, 2020, 08:52:39 AM
It looks like some of the people still believes that the NBA is rigged.
Yeah, I am one of them but I'm not yet fully convinced that's why this thread was created to gain more opinion from fans.

I was thinking how did they think that it was rigged? I mean how did they get the idea? Is there any news or reported before that the NBA is rigged? I was curious about it.
You might want to check some videos, open your browser, open youtube and type NBA is rigged or NBA rigged, videos will pop up, and if you are interested you can watch all of it with your popcorn or some bear in the table.  Grin

 I was very much interested in the thread when it started, to be certain that what happens in wrestling (I read the wrestlers are acting or something) doesn't happen in football/soccer & NBA, or that matches aren't fixed or rigged in favour of a team.
Ofcourse, I have heard/read on national news media many years ago of teams/referees getting penalized for cheating/matche-fixing. So, they clearly happened in the past and could still be happening in any sports/competition. It's OK to ask questions.


2557  Economy / Gambling / Re: BITRUN - PREDICT THE PRICE OF BITCOIN AND WIN BITCOIN on: November 25, 2020, 08:26:29 AM
saw a debate above and they talk about reducing the minimum bet but they didnt mention if how much is the sites current bet amount which im verry much curious to know

Frankly speaking I have no account in this site but there was someone said that the min bet is 0.001btc which worth more than $19 with the current bitcoin price.
It is obvious that 0.001btc is too high for a minimum bet, only whales will be OK with this minimum bet IMO.



The $19 could be considered very risky bet by average bettors, worst still is losing all the money if a bet is lost. Betting sites should always consider making bets as less risky as a possible to all their bettors otherwise they would be violating rules on safe/responsible betting by encouraging bettors to take big betting risk (or gamble)
2558  Economy / Gambling / Re: Cloudbet forced verification stuck for more than 10 days on: November 25, 2020, 08:06:29 AM
Have you used the site multiple times before without problems?
I guess what you mean by verification documents (below your post) is kyc,right? If yes, what reply did the site gave you concerning your kyc... did you qualify or no?

In regards to using up the whole balance, I don't think that is mandatory. They probably said that to get you gamble all the fund away and avoid passing through kyc which is likely required for people withdrawing such big amount or withdrawing above certain withdrawal limit.
2559  Other / Off-topic / Re: Darkcloud Marketplace on: November 24, 2020, 04:39:03 PM
Who are familiar with darkcloud.store?

It is a peer-to-peer marketplace where people can sell and buy goods anonymously. Did anyone experience in using this platform?


not at the moment and i have no plan at all.

This is surely a market where people can buy any illegal items and service because of anonymity .

But be careful because i am more than 100% sure that Government Eyes are on this market now and just waiting for the perfect violator.


Doesn't mean anonymity is a bad thing. Afterall people go to physical market to buy things anonymously, and it is not considered illegal to do so for thousands of years.

The site could be the problem if it really allows buying and selling of illegal/dangerous things. If those things are legal but dangerous, it will be best to use some sort of decentralized kyc on buyers/sellers while they remain anonymous(if they wish). But people's Verified Identities shouldn't be stored Centrally. They should be thoroughly encrypted, stored on decentralized/shared system, be immutable and should only be known/controlled by their owners. If a buyer/seller commits serious crime, the identity can be unmasked via network consensus.

Well, the world generally is the enemy of true christains, not just one country because our faith goes contrary to what the world believes.

True Christains will not engage in physical war. The coming physical battle will be the world fighting themselves and getting conquered/defeated by a king from West.
