2561  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: You hoping that the next coin Elon will hype is one of the coin you are holding on: June 04, 2021, 03:17:35 PM
Elon Musk creates a lot of millionaires on those DogeCoin bag holders, are you hoping that the next coin Elon will hype is one of the coins you are holding, honestly I am and praying that the next token he will hype is TRON, still buying a lot of it.
Why not it's cheap and fast what can you ask more?

Did Elon promote any other coin except Doge and Bitcoin? I don't think so! I doubt Elon will start promoting any other coin because SEC has already initiated probe against Elon regarding the recent market manipulation he did.

So I don't think he will go after any other coin in near future. If he does, he will probably again promote bitcoin so that his company can make up the losses from their bitcoin investment. So yes, that's what I wish so that bitcoin breaks the 60k regime in near future.

Just one question to op,

Before listing any crypto gambling website, what kind of due diligence process you follow?

When you claim that all gambling platforms listed in your website are legit, we also need to know the due diligence process.

The website design looks kind of funny with the color combination you have chosen (from mobile) for the lists. If you want people to take your website seriously, don't use more than 3 colors. It's a psychological trick that all long standing web designers know.
2563  Local / India / Re: HDFC, SBI Warn Customers Of Restrictions If They Deal In Cryptocurrency on: June 03, 2021, 06:41:31 PM
I really hope everything will be fine after the recent circular from Reserve Bank Of India. I mean banks will not be able to freeze your account if the find or suspect crypto transactions happening in your account. However, I doubt that it will last long.

Crypto bill will definitely be tabled in the upcoming monsoon session in the parliament and I fear that cryptocurrencies will face prohibition in India. So I would say, please don't use any Indian centralized crypto exchange as of now. Exercise extreme caution and don't go beyond p2p trading.

We will need patience to see how the things move on.
2564  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Would you bet on climbing challenges on: June 03, 2021, 02:06:38 PM
I don't think we have any platform both in crypto and fiat, where gambling on climbing is introduced. The only reason I can see is the popularity. Climbing is a very much underground sport and definitely not popular like Football, Cricket, F1 or even Tennis! It has a small fan base and for genuine reasons sportsbooks have not shown interest into this sport. Frankly speaking, I couldn't find even a fiat based sportsbook for this sport.
2565  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Does the epidemic have a big impact on Bitcoin? on: June 03, 2021, 11:40:36 AM
In the global recession, nothing is safe. When economic activity is at its lowest point, people are in desperate need of money. In this state, it is not surprising that the price of Bitcoin has fallen.
In fact, if there is Bitcoin, many people will sell it. This is to be expected. Bitcoin's value will inevitably fall like stocks. Bitcoin's market is not absolutely independent of what is happening in the world. This is obvious.
But Bitcoin will not go bankrupt, it will not happen. The company may go bankrupt, and even the country may fall into a debt crisis. But Bitcoin will not reach that state. Bitcoin will eventually rebound
why?

I wouldn't disagree! We are in the middle of a pandemic and the world economy is suffering. Job losses are everywhere and people are living on government's income support scheme. We are seeing a nightmare still in many countries. Crypto is not completely secluded from the earthly matters, so it got affected as well.

However, we have actually seen a great bull run from bitcoin and other few chosen altcoins during this pandemic as well. When the price of bitcoin reached to 60k, we all expected a correction. Now look at the market, it is increasing again.

These are part of daily crypto market. Every dip is an opportunity.
2566  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: JP Morgan Likens "BITCOIN to FOOLS-GOLD" Say's $20k todays value on: June 03, 2021, 10:19:10 AM
Lol! It's a well known fact that JPM chief Jemie is a bitcoin hater. His FUD had actually worked back in days when he was able to bring down the value of bitcoin with his anti-bitcoin statements. But those days are gone and no one really bothers what Jemie thinks about bitcoin.

So when such FUDs are coming from a JPM employee, it's no wonder that she is just tying to please his boss. I would say read the article, laugh and move on! That's the best we can do except ignoring.

While the former growth is slow and steady, the later is rapid in growth and can aswell reverse its growth rapidly.

Fiat is not designed to grow in value. Rather it looses value due to inflation. It's purchasing power decreases over time.

Quote
While the later is better for exchange, the former is better for investment.

Depends on your country and the existing legislation around cryptos. In few countries like Japan or Germany, you can legally use cryptos as a medium of exchange.

Quote
While the former is a local man that can exist without his brother, the later is an international man that cannot exist without his brother.

What do you mean by existing? It certainly can exist without each other.
2568  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Tesla Competitor to Launch First Electric Car That Mines Bitcoin and Dogecoin on: June 02, 2021, 01:30:04 PM
I stumbled upon this news couple of weeks back. While it's ok for a marketing gimmick and may appeal to some crypto miners in this process, but is it really practical? Electric cars are already under heavy fire from the consumers due to its short range and limited usability. Now if an electric car start mining while parked, it will drain out the battery and reduce the range even further.

For a marketing gimmick it's ok but not practical, I must say!
2569  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: $5000 to $1 million in 3 years and little over 2000 bets! on: June 02, 2021, 06:38:18 AM
I posted regarding this before back in 2018. Many said couldn't be done but i followed the methodology and the picks religiously and here we are. Spreadsheet shows all the picks in the log sheet and the dashboard shows the summary. Settings sheet has details on the money management. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15CSvrT3osJos4P-Fni102v5fvZqaqm8Q/edit#gid=644533306  Only obstacle that you will run into is you will make enemies with books and majority of the books will limit your and shut you down. If you cannot get accounts in pinnacle and betcris/bookmaker you wont be able to get far as million.

Great betting and congratulations on the winnings. However, it's not clear what do you want to prove? Are you offering tips or is it a gambling syndicate or what exactly it is? Making millions in just 3 years is not an easy task and yes, many bookmakers will block your accusations and cease your winnings in grounds of suspicion activities. So using a non-crypto bookmarker is ideal in this situation.

If it is a tips & tricks service, what is the risk cover you are offering. Let us know!
2570  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Blockchain on Lending system on: June 02, 2021, 05:11:04 AM
Defi has been very popular these days. Finance structure can be decentralized with Defi.
However, Defi is a peer to peer financing system where no bank or intermediaries are required. However, is it possible that banks are running some sorts of blockchain based platform, which can help them to reduce the rate of default loan?
Or, how blockchain technology can help in managing non performing loans? Share any idea you got or share any project you know.

P2P lending is a dangerous system. I have personally experienced it with BTCJAM website few years back and all I got is a page full of red glory. less than 10% people repaid their loan and rest all are now enjoying with out bitcoins. However, Defi lending is little different. here you will have to provide collateral assets against a loan which is locked in smart contract and it will be paid back to you once you repay the loan. So that's somewhat secured unless the value of the collateralized asset goes down. But the risk is higher than traditional financing.

Banks can definitely use blockchain based platforms, but that will be only for maintaining data. I don't think a Defi based system will be beneficial for them, because they usually deal in a single currency system for the retail customers. And every single loan taken out by retail customers can't be collateralized. It's easier for Defi because they deal in multiple currencies. So a true-breed Defi isn't beneficial in traditional finances. The risk of default is much higher and banks will end up loosing their capital.   
2571  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Tokens (Altcoins) / Re: Doge-backed Token on: June 01, 2021, 08:26:19 PM
Dogecoin is itself an abandoned coin and you guys have built an ecosystem around this!! How silly!! The developer of dogecoin sold off all his coins few years back and purchase a Honda car with it. Are you planning something of that sort?

Another serious concern is about the team members which is already raised by my fellow community members. Why codenames instead of actual identity?
2572  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: This dip is PROOF that "I wish I would've bought Bitcoin at X price" is nonsense on: June 01, 2021, 04:48:55 PM
I wish bitcoin adopters from 2017 could see this post! I clearly understand the frustration. When bitcoin market reached to 22k, there was a mad profit booking rush. Also there were many people who had adopted at this price range. People were frustrated until 2020, because they couldn't book their profit since almost 3 years. Now look at the market. Did it give another chance to get into bitcoin at 2017 price level.

So don't share your frustration with people here. Just wait for another bullish cycle.
2573  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: How i can cancel bitcoin transaction contend 2 confirmations on: June 01, 2021, 11:44:13 AM
Hi i had send BTC transaction in two days but it is stopped in two confirmation i don't know what happened there is possible to cancel it.

You have already received the correct answers from my fellow forum members. However, may I ask what is the need for cancelling the transaction? The recipient of this transaction, has already received it at their end. So you can consider the transaction is completed. Is there any scam happened? Do let us know so that others are aware!
2574  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Great News: RBI is directing Indian banks to stop deplatforming crypto customers on: May 31, 2021, 05:16:53 PM
Does this mean that crypto users in India is going to be able to use banks for their crypto related transactions? Because if so that means that India has once again moved in favor of cryptocurrency again and I can feel that they might go the other way again in the near future.

I have just seen the tweet from WazirX CEO Nischal about it. That's a good news! Because Indian banks have been barring crypto exchanges from opening bank account or providing settlements through banks. ICICI and Axis banks were the most infamous on these fronts of banning accounts.

Now coming back to your question. Yes, crypto exchanges in India would be able to continue using the banking service after complying with the existing set of guidelines. No banks will be able to deny service to the crypto exchanges.

But I am still skeptical about the final outcome. The crypto regulation bill is supposed to discussed in the upcoming monsoon parliament session. I am not very positive about it!
2575  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Singapore Police Say Crypto-Related Crimes Keep Rising across the Country on: May 31, 2021, 01:40:41 PM

The Singaporean police have reported that cryptocurrency-related crimes have skyrocketed since 2018, and the uptrend does not seem to be slowing down. According to The Straits Times, around 393 reports were made last year amid the coronavirus crisis of cases involving crypto frauds, cheating, among others, which is more than three times the figures of 2019.

Additionally, the authorities pointed out that just 125 complaints were filed with the police, representing another surge from the 15 reported in 2018. Furthermore, between 2018 and 2020, criminals stole $29 million during these crypto-related crime cases.

https://www.financemagnates.com/cryptocurrency/news/singapore-police-say-crypto-related-crimes-keep-rising-across-the-country/


This statement is true in the global context as well. Crypto related cyber crimes are at all time high. Many corporates were affected by the ransomware attack since last year. There was a recent attack on an American pipeline where again bitcoin was paid to the scammers. It seems majority of the cyber crimes are happening and bitcoin is inevitably involved in that. These incidents are earning a bad name for bitcoin for sure. The pseudo anonymity has indeed granted a power to the scammers!
2576  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online Gaming Scams during Pandemic. How to Stay Safe. on: May 31, 2021, 11:50:36 AM
Being vigilant is the best we can do to save ourselves from online gambling scams.

However, I would also emphasize that we should not trust a very new gambling website popped out of nowhere. If you are a regular gambler, then stick to your regular gambling website which you know and you are comfortable dealing with them.

Testing absolutely new gambling websites may lead to bigger disasters. Also it is important not to deposit a huge amount of money when you are testing out a website. That's what I follow and thankfully didn't fall for any scam till date!
2577  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Don't believe in digital money? Well... on: May 31, 2021, 10:47:19 AM
-Digital books and kindles replaced library books

-Regular mail was replaced by email

-Previously, we took actual photos; now we take digital photos

-Digital music replaced cassettes and CDs.

-We switched to direct deposit from cash or checks.

How often do you actually have cash? It's rare that I do! The next item on this list is money.

Then... Buy Bitcoins.

Your argument is good! However, the digital money revolution will not favor bitcoin. It is definitely a great digital currency common people have embraced. But when we talk about the CBDCs, that will be something controlled by the central banks. No decentralized currency like bitcoin or ETH, will get that chance. Bitcoin will always flourish in the way it is functioning today and its value will appreciate. So good time to invest.

But digital money revolution will be captured by the CBDCs and not cryptos. World governments will not let that happen!
2578  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can BTC become the world central currency? on: May 30, 2021, 04:03:53 PM
Frankly speaking, I don't see this happening ever. World leaders wouldn't allow a generic currency system without a controller, become the central currency of the world. There will be corporates who might add bitcoin into their cash reserve, but definitely not on a government level.

World leaders wouldn't allow some unknown miners to produce their reserve currency. This might happen if only government starts controlling 100% of the mining operations. Otherwise, don't even think about it!
2579  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin advert banned in the UK by ASA (Advertising Standards Authority) on: May 30, 2021, 02:55:39 PM

Fact check:
ASA didn't ban bitcoin related advertising. The have banned advertising which doesn't talk about risks associated with any kind of investment. So if you are stock broker and you want to put advertisements about stock market and your service, you see to mention the risks associated with it. Otherwise even your stock market advertising will be banned.

Don't mislead people and update the thread title asap.
2580  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Many large crypto mining operators are moving out of China on: May 28, 2021, 03:04:48 PM
China’s renewed campaign against cryptocurrency has mining and exchange operators retreating from the country.  READ THE COMPLETE ARTICLE HERE: https://worldpublicityblog.com/index.php/2021/05/28/many-large-crypto-mining-operators-are-moving-out-of-china/

The government of China is authoritarian by nature. They understand that cryptocurrency can potentially provide financial freedkm to their people which could in turn challenge the stability of their authoritarian regime. Like every other problem, they are now trying to uproot this problem from their soil. But that's not the end really! Wait for some more days, they will legally ban every single cryptocurrencies and all related transactions. They will also impose a punitive action if anyone is found dealing in cryptos. They are good in uprooting any challenges and they will try their best in this case as well.
