I mean, that's not how it works? People are naturally like that, if they missed something they could've gotten they'd naturally complain, can't really do anything about it. Sides, I'm pretty sure most people who'd actually complain are people who lost the opportunity to buy it at that price and instead bought it at a probably higher price.

Well if they really did complain cause they didn't bought, well that's pretty dumb imo.

Facts. Honestly, KYC isn't that much of an issue sometimes, it's just that the way they ask for it is kind of dumb and stupid that users bloody hate it. Asking for KYC when withdrawing, asking for KYC when originally it wasn't there, those kinds of things are the ones that are irritating but having KYC stated in full black and white at the start? That's pretty agreeable since I can just leave the site and choose to go to another casino.

As for customer support, well that's always a number one kind of thing. I'd always want an agreeable customer support, one that doesn't just half ass you when you're trying to inquire stuff.

Great job from OP. $100 might be small now but who knows, 18 years is a long time and a lot could happen in the market during that time. I'd suggest investing at least monthly, or yearly if montly isn't possible though, just so that you wouldn't need to rely that much on that sole $100 to bring you profits you'd use for your nephew's growth. You're investing in the long term after all, might as well maximize the investment that you'd do if you can handle it. Honestly doubt it'd be enough, increments of Bitcoin has been decreasing with every new peak after all.

No, not really. If you were talking about its future value then it's rather unknown, since well, it's in the future. I guess the only advantage of buying BTC that can be seen right now is that, well, it's not fiat. It's a lot better than hodling it as fiat honestly if it was extra money you wouldn't exactly use it immediately. Possible future advantages include the price increase therefore the value of the amount you hold would increase (or decrease) in USD, avoiding the inflation of fiat, those are the ones on the top of my head but there's probably a bunch more really.

I'd probably go for both markets? I mean if it was possible, I'd go for both. It's a very niche market imo, though you'd probably have some issues with trying to serve a LOT of customers, but well if you're at the top of the chain, you'd hardly have any problems later on. Having a market for the rich requires you to be rich yourself, so it's going to be pretty hard to actually start it out if you aren't, well, rich. But if you are, both options are pretty plausible imo, though the rich market would probably be easier to set up your business in.

Well, it is relating to newbies instead of experienced traders though. I guess what OP was saying was about how newbie traders would "always" experience breakdowns and stressful experience, compared to experienced traders, who experiences everything all the same BUT they do know how to handle their emotions properly and would rarely let it run out of control. It's probably easy in terms of switching since you have experience, but the risks would still have the same problems all the same.

There's the internet as well, a sea of resources you could find and use to start your trading journey. It might be a bit of a hassle though since you don't know where to start, now that's where you can ask people. If they ask for money, then leave it be, but if they were willing to share it, since most of it is general knowledge stuff afaik, then it should be really helpful in setting your path. Honestly though, the first step starts with having the money to try out trading first, since that money could let you help experience stuff.

Sports gambling is dependent on sports, but not gambling necessarily. I mean we have casinos out there that have their own gambling games such as slots, dice, blackjack, etc., so it isn't necessarily bound to sports. So even if just, for example, a country banned sports for some dumb reason, gambling could still thrive and vice versa. The two don't need to be allowed for both of them to thrive, they're two separate industries after all. If we were to actually specify it to sports gambling though, then yea, OP has it the other way around, sports gambling was just a byproduct of sports themselves imo, without sports, there wouldn't be sports betting.

Does this take into account improvements towards Bitcoin's, well, whatever backend techy side there is? I'm not particularly sure how it should actually work, but I reckon it should have at the very least paths for improvement that would counteract developments like the quantum computer thing OP said. After all with the way people are rather pro of Bitcoins long term development, it developing something against Quantum computers shouldn't be all out of the picture, unless ofc, some madman suddenly rushed the development and made it within a span where Bitcoin had no way to make improvements.

Yes, changes in TOS have indeed happened in some casinos, there was even a thread here about a topic where the TOS of a casino was changed but it never updated the users (or it was sent in spam, I can't really remember much about the specifics anymore). Nothing new really, TOS changes are rather normal for some casinos, especially if they find loopholes or some stuff that they forgot to properly arrange.
Pretty much standard scammy procedures. Honestly if a site, even if it wasn't a casino, maybe even just a news site or something, starts asking you for money to view something you clearly have access originally but they just changed it arbitrarily without updating you or giving you time to realize the changes, just leave and quit using that for good.

Wouldn't the one would find to play in in the first place in casinos that don't have strict KYC requirements, even when withdrawals? Some casinos have strict KYC requirements though already in the first place though afaik, as long as you read the TOS well enough it should be pretty easy to understand if a casino has withdrawal KYC requirements. It's not really high, it's KYC in the first place, it's supposed to be strict and stuff like that.
Not on experience really, but rather based on what coins/exchanges you are using since the experience on using crypto is pretty linear, it's just dependent on "what" you actually use.

I mean, they're completely two different things? Gambling is well, an entertainment activity, mostly correlated with how closely it brings most people closer to addiction (which honestly, should be blamed on the user and not the activity in this scenario), and with its negative connotation, ofc it's rather reasonable why countries would ban it. Now, as for football, it's a sport that's really enjoyed by a lot of people, a competition between skilled men, who would hate it? It's not irony, it's common sense of the society (sadly) as of now.

Or, you can just hold. Remove the stress in trying to invest and just keep on investing. Learning the bare minimum together with investing in coins that would develop in the long run, and not just built up hype, would help you a lot. Honestly, short-term is not really something I'd let someone new to trading do, heck even long-term traders would probably say that they don't particularly like something like day trading. It's just way too much stress imo, especially for newbie traders.

Well damn, glad for you OP. Pretty sure it was rather hard, especially during peak seasons I reckon. Still, it probably was a bit easier in the following peak seasons after the first, but it doesn't mean that it was still easy to hold after all of that. Might've been better to buy sometimes during dips? But oh well, if you're satisfied with what you have now, glad for you! Still, you might want to withdraw some every now and then to spread your portfolio, after all holding for that long should give you enough leeway to actually invest on something else.

Facts. It's really hard to do what words can easily say. And honestly, even if the most generic advice is always repeated, it's general advice for a reason, mostly because people can't seem to follow it no matter what. The best advice to a gambler is honestly, to not just gamble. Or well, if you can't stop that, then just don't try to gamble for money, try to gamble for entertainment. It was originally supposed to be as such, and yet people still lose themselves and try to gamble to win money. it isn't that simple.

Whoa there, Ana coming back? Let's go. Hope this improves the SEA scene really, and possibly add more teams that could compete in the TI, what with the recent changes that the format had that made more teams be able to join the competition.

As for Ana and Jerax though I don't think they'd be teaming up again imo. It's kinda unlikely? And honestly, I'd like to see more of a match where these two are up against each other. They know each others quirks and all that after all, you can expect some pretty good games from them with that.

Wouldn't you consider NFT as something like a media format instead? I mean I think there's no need to combine the two, the art part and the token part of an NFT into one single entity and call it an "NFT", it should be possible to separate the two when trying to identify which is which. But I guess it is kind of difficult to define it as such, especially to the masses when everything could be simplified into making it as NFT art, but if it could, well, ig problem solved? Honestly they can just put it under as a subcategory of digital art imo.

It's quite obvious that it's a scam no? Heck even the first part where your wife was asked to give them money so that they can make more money out of it, it already smells like a scam. Really, stop letting third parties use your money without any guarantee at all, that's just dumb. Plus, asking for more money for your reward to be given, is another sign of a scam, and if you accepted, probably another reason why you should stop listening to investment programs that you find anywhere. Just give it up OP, give up the money, you're never going to get it back.

Ignoring customer reviews and queries. Honestly, if they just answered back some replies and queries, even if the casino is bad, at the very least the user would have some closure to it, and maybe leave for good (or stay, depending on the answer), but no, if they just leave it hanging, it hurts pretty much both them and the user. If they bothered to actually answer, most problems could easily be resolved such as withdrawal issues, game fixes, scam accusations, etc.

I mean if you're talking about the hype and whatnot, then Bitcoin definitely isn't on the list most of the time, and definitely not now due to how the market is down the dumps, but you can't deny how much safer it is as an investment compared to, well, yours. Or any other altcoin investment. Yes, multipliers between the two are rather different since you can make 100x in one sitting, but it doesn't guarantee that it's YOU who's going to make it, you could be part of the majority, the ones that lose their money instead.

Honestly if you really want to, just diversify your investments. No need to go all-in on a risky project that is built on hype.
