2701  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is anonymous betting a desired feature? on: June 21, 2019, 07:03:14 AM
I'm working on a football (soccer) betting site, and I'd like to know if it is worth the effort to add the feature to allow no-registration bets. Has it ever been a deciding factor when you pick a site to bet on?

I will really be in full support of you to built such a fantastic application as long as we can avoid KYC
Frankly speaking, if the op can really succeed in building such anonymous betting site which is what many people has been craving for, he will really be able to drive lots of traffic to his game site. Although I still do not know how the op will be able to manage this, and how he will be able to identify a winner without having any details about him.

I think little registration would not be bad such as nickname even if it is not full name and then maybe password. Imagine someone having challenge in using the site and he needs to contact the customer care for support, without a proper identification that will link him to his account, how would they know how to resolve such issue?
The question I have now is “Do you think the OP would ever be successful with this project’’ I understand that a lot of gamblers would choose to gamble on an anonymous betting site but at the same time there is a regulation governing gambling industry, and before a gambling site can be approved,, there are some rules the operator would need to adhere to, except the OP is willing to create a site that is without license and this is enough to also scare away intending gamblers.

For me I will advice the op creates a site with interesting features and also a secured site and forget making anonymity the most important priority. There will definitely be gamblers that will still play on the site Regardless.

I'm suggesting some gambling sites which hopefully benefit everyone. Those who are looking for safer and trustworthy sites are hoping to benefit from this post. All these sites are popular and probably the Fair Sites. Hopefully, my recommended sites will be working for those who are looking for good and popular sites.

Hmmm it seems like what I've been seeing about sportsbet.io is true since you didn't mention them on your list. I have been seeing some people that complained that sportsbet.io never paid them their huge winnings, instead they will block (I only saw a few people that said this). But a lot of review sites I see when I research on Google always mention Sportsbet as one of the best betting sites. Most of them even put them as the number one, while CloudBet is then placed at number two position.

I would suggest you to stay away from sportsbet because they have some issues. Although they do pay you but they hold your amount in case of larger wins and this makes them a bit fishy. This has been told by few players who actually play at sportsbet.  You can use clouldbet or onehash for sports betting.
Oh thanks for sharing this, I always thought sports bet had a good reputation, this is a dent on their image and I hope they correct it soon, I was actually thinking of  placing my bet on the site, its good am on the forum to read this.

Getting a trusted sites these days has become quite difficult, who would have thought sport bet of all site would be involved in this mess, I always implore my friends to stay active on this site because they are so many information we gain here that it would be hard to get outside  the forum and even.
2703  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: This is the crypto bull run June 2019 on: June 19, 2019, 10:26:02 AM
Bitcoin now reached a 2 years high crossing 10K. Crypto have had a long bearish trend the last 2 years. Now the bull run is back again. What would the Bitcoin price hit this time? Will it cross the 20K line or would stay lower?
Based on the path the price movement started following since the first of April, I don’t think we have ever experienced any continuous surge without having a little retrace, now that Bitcoin has actually started surging high again, I doubt if it is from here that it will lead us to 20K, I think we should still expect a price correction, but the challenge has always been to know when it will correct, it is easier to predict uptrend of Bitcoin than it’s downtrend, and the only way traders can make more money during this time is when they are able to predict the downtrend for them to know when to buy again after selling at the price increase we see now.
2704  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: From Janitor to Millionaire on: June 13, 2019, 12:24:32 PM
That's what everyone called luck. I'm sure here everyone must have their own luck. Not only for a lottery but for everything else. And congratulations to that person who is now a Millionaire. Maybe in the future we will get good luck like that person.
I do not see this as luck at all. All I see here is a man who has known what he wants and kept on pursuing it regardless of how long it took him to achieve. This man has been doing this repeatedly. It wasn’t his first time of buying lottery, maybe I would have agreed to luck if it was his first time doing it, this is pure dedication and faith at work.

I know a lot of people will ask why they are yet to win theirs, if It’s because of dedication but my answer is that different people with their different time of winning. At the end everyone will be a winner, we only need time patience and carefulness till it gets to our turn.
2705  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Don't share your email and KYC with every bounty or airdrop!!! on: June 13, 2019, 11:53:55 AM
So if a project requested for someone information it is necessary for you to give out your information only for you to get your reward from them.
Email and KYC are not remotely same things. Email is something you can open in 10 minutes and than you can never check that again unless you have to whereas KYC is your own personal information that you are giving. I would agree that never give your ID or anything to anyone without a proper reason but if you want to give your email and have to do what I did, open one mail for stuff you do not want to give your actual email and use that not just on crypto but anywhere you don't want to share your real email.
2706  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Bad "good" news. on: June 13, 2019, 11:08:33 AM
The kind of news that can move the crypto market is not any kind of news. There are news that can move the market, the kind of news that has proofs and can as well cause investors to start withdrawing their money out of fear of missing out. Then the same thing applies to the kind of news that can lead to the price of cryptocurrency going up as well. I don't even think any news can do much these days. I see lot of both good news and bad news about cryptocurrency and that doesn't affect the market in any way.. So…
2707  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Why you should always restrict API access by IP on: June 13, 2019, 10:16:02 AM
I have 2 API in my poloniex account. One is cryptolend and another is what I used.

Both can trade.

One day 1.5 bitcoin is gone from my account. Why? A hacker use one of the IP to make losing trades. Similar hacks in Poloniex are plenty.

Polonies does not want to tell me which API is used.

I do not think it's the API I set for cryptolend but can't rule them out.

What is cryptolend IP?

We need to restrict API only on cryptolend API
Hmph… poloniex always have lots of issues here and there. That's why a lot of people have been running from them right from beginning. I have always been avoiding them right from the start. I only made use of their exchange back when I was a newbie, apart from Coinbase pro (GDAX then) Poloniex was another exchange I was using then and when I started seeing lots of complaints about them I just quickly switched to another exchange (Binance). I don't waste time. In distancing myself from any exchange I think is bad. But recently I've been seeing news that they are getting better, though I don't know if that is true. For me, I don't think I'm going back there.
2708  Economy / Marketplace / Re: For god's sake, stop lestening to mainstream Media and wake up people... !! on: June 13, 2019, 09:48:52 AM

JP morgan COE slates bitcoin and crypto and then JPM buys dip and develop blockchain..,,.

Facebook  bans crypto adverts and promo then assings team blockchain   development and will develop own cryptocurrency.,

Bill gates slates bitcoin than just day later wants to use bitcoin's legtening  network.

Banks blocking crypto exchanges and card and closing accounts then goldman sachs launches own crypto..
When someone gives you an advice, you're not meant to take everything, you take only the ones you feel are the right advice out of it. So I don't see why you should be advising people to stay out from the media, there is no need for anyone to be doing such. There are very important news that you can miss out on just because you're staying away from the media. It's good to be updated, you can't do it yourself… listen to what the media has to say and then decide for yourself whether that is right or not. If it's not right then forget about it and move on. That's it.
2709  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Biggest comparison site for crypto ever launched today! on: June 13, 2019, 08:26:31 AM
250+ exchanges? I just hope you guys are not going all out to list everything you see including the bad ones, so you don't end up misleading newbies. I just checked the site, well it looks good with the blue background and everything. And I like the fact that when people visit the site they are being asked some few questions that they will have to answer and the website will automatically list out exchanges they will be interested in. That's cool, the site, you just did something very unique in the crypto community. Just saying you should list only the good ones and don't add the bad ones on the list. Watch as others starts to copy your work.
2710  Economy / Exchanges / Re: what are the things to consider when looking for a good exchange? on: June 13, 2019, 07:53:31 AM
I am a trader or at least that is how i see myself. I trade on binance, okex, idex, mercatox, bittrex, houbi and some other exchange. Lately i notice a lot of new crypto exchange popping here and there. And as much as i know and safe guard my password and secure my account with 2fa, I am still curious of the factors other traders consider when they are signing up on a new exchange. Would love to know some of your key factors so i might look into those too.
Like seriously, why do you all newbies like to stress yourselves?? The worst part of it all is that you can't even do the research. Asking what's the best ways to know a good exchanges doesn't help you in any way. Okay I have seen some people mention security, so how the heck are you going to know the level of security of any site when you don't even work there?? That's funny seriously. Instead of all these stress, you should just go for the popular exchanges. There is coinbase and there is binance, so no need for all these questions. Just go for the popular exchanges and you will be safe, these ones are not going to mess with you cause they care a lot about their reputation.
2711  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: After ICO, the tokens sank in price. Why? on: June 13, 2019, 07:28:44 AM
As a rule, most blockchain- projects that have collected tens of millions of dollars for ICO, issue tokens on the exchange without real production growth.
What does it mean?
That's how it's been. After the ICO bounty hunters will sell their tokens, cause none of them are ready to hold it, they will just sell it for a coin they think is better. This time around it has become a normal thing for both the investors and the hunters, once the ICO is over, majority of them will sell their coins, causing the price rate of the tokens to drop. The same thing is what we are now seeing in IEO as well, people are now dumping IEO immediately the project is over they will sell their coins. It's become a normal thing, only coins that has a strong vision and able to make investors believe in them can survive such things.
2712  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The main factors pushing the ICO market down on: June 13, 2019, 07:05:20 AM
First there are lots of scam projects rolling out everyday and that alone is discouraging a lot of people from investing in ICO because whenever ICO is mentioned, they all feel like this is another scam project as well. So that alone is causing bad names for icos and is making the market drop badly. Then another thing is all these pump and dumpsters. Omg these ones are very annoying trust me, sometimes you see a project and you believe this is a good project, then you invest in it only for it to end up being pumped and dumped and you will just lose your money like that.
2713  Economy / Economics / Re: Cryptocurrency, KYC and Terrorism on: June 12, 2019, 12:32:55 PM
Stealing people's ID and information didn't start today, people has been doing for a very long time. I can even remember coming across an ad that would usually pop up and say that Google was giving out free iPhones and I was so confused. I saw a lot of people gave out their information and never received anything. When I saw the ad, I already knew it was fake cause I knew that Google is a competitor for Apple and they are never going to be giving out free iPhones, like are they stupid, why would they? So whoever started such a thing very dumb. But back to what I was saying, cryptocurrency is not the only way people have done that, without crypto they still do it. So people should stop painting crypto black.
2714  Economy / Economics / Re: Regulation of Cryptocurrency Around the World on: June 12, 2019, 12:07:28 PM
Regulation of Cryptocurrency
Around the World



You can find a list of 130 countries in this document.
You're forgetting to add one country in the list of countries where cryptocurrency is illegal and that country is India. Bitcoin is now illegal in India and their government is jailing anyone that is caught with cryptocurrency for up to ten years time. So it should be on that illegal list. But I don't know if this is true, but I have seen the news a couple of times online, why I'm still confused about it is because I still see some people who are from india that are still making use of cryptocurrency, so I am not sure if that is true or not.
2715  Economy / Economics / Re: Ways to earn cryptocurrency doing your everyday online shopping on: June 12, 2019, 11:42:18 AM
This is really cool. Everyone needs to be making use of services like this when they are purchasing anything with cryptocurrency, now that the price of crypto is down you can be saving some money back, than throw them away and get nothing in return. But I do have a question about this Rewards.com thing. So if you invest, how much exactly are you getting back in return!? What's the percentage you're getting back when you buy with this. Cause whenever I make use of Purse.io I usually get 20% off from everything on Amazon. So that does that mean I'm getting money back on something close to that?
2716  Economy / Economics / Re: The Continuous Printing of Money on: June 12, 2019, 11:04:46 AM


When your economy is not doing well, the inflation is beyond control and the people are demanding for changes...what will you do? Of course, you will print billions and billions of paper money so you have the budget for anything you want and to solve many monetary problems your country is facing today and into the future. Now to make things spiced up and politically correct, you are going to call the printing of more money as "quantitative easing" a term pregnant with many possibilities, opportunities and threats depending on which of the equation you are located.

In an interesting article, the author likened this quantitative easing to an additive drug even more potent than the usual marijuana or cocaine you can buy on the street. And now, politicians and bureaucrat are getting addictive into it as their easy fix to solve myriad of problems.

Further Read: https://news.bitcoin.com/after-trillions-printed-under-qe-politicians-now-say-deficits-dont-matter/

We all know that eventually, printing of more money can result into disaster in the long-run. This is not like a chili pepper hot sauce that can immediately be felt but definitely this is like pawning the very future of the people.
I don't think any country in their right senses would be doing that kind of sh#tty stuffs, cause it's very bad is going to ruin their economy. What's the need of printing more money when you already know that it is going to cause the value of that currency to be dropping and all those money you have printed will just turn to become worthless and nothing else. Countries do print money and it can either be to renew the ones in circulation or for a good reasons. So don't think that anyone in their right mind would just be printing money anyhow.
2717  Economy / Economics / Re: Mining in the cloud vs simply buying bitcoin on: June 12, 2019, 08:16:50 AM
Well, if it has advantage, it will as well be having an disadvantages right? So that means that none of them is better than the other. And if what you're talking about is bitcoin mining and cloud mining, I don't think I will be choosing bitcoin mining, cause you already know the difficulties in mining bitcoin. Bitcoin is not like altcoins mining, altcoins are far easier than mining bitcoin. The only thing is that bitcoin is worth more than them, but the question should be whether the profit you're making is more than the expenses you're making for the mining. If the expenses is more than the profit, then it's a waste of time. Cloud mining, you don't really have to stress yourself in any way except in getting the finance you need in order to invest. Anyone you decide to choose, do so wisely.
2718  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Altcoins, exceeding BTC growth in 2019 on: June 12, 2019, 07:55:47 AM
I think if you look at the stats you will realize that it depends on the altcoin as well. Some altcoins haven't increased as much as the others and they are still low valued, Nano for example is still very low and has a long way to go before it can actually recover whereas ethereum has increased triple than the bottom number it used to be from 80 to 250 now, even bitcoin only went from 4k to 8k which is just double. Thats why this information only accurate for some altcoins but not all.
2719  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Royal ramble in the casino on: June 12, 2019, 06:56:27 AM
Gambling can influence anyone and it can also trigger trouble to a greedy player.

I’m quietly playing on the side of the casino when I heard someone was shouting to another player, I’m shock because it happened on casinos so as expected everyone was panicking and most of the players leaves the table. I’m a kind of person that want’s to know every stories, so i ask the other player on that table and he said, the guy was loss everything that’s why he was mad.

Now I conclude that he’s so addict on gambling to become emotional like that, that was my unexpected experience on the casinos. I’m trying to look for a news about this but I think, its not open for the public as casinos are more private as much as possible. Have you experience this one also? Is it normal to have a scene like this?
That is a bane when it comes in live casino. Many people can threat you specially if you are a low profile person. Once you defeat a player, there is a tendency that they will look at you outside. There are many cases in my country which been killed in and outside of casino. I don't yet experience like that but I fear to see some arguing or quarreling in the table.
It is not a shocking thing to react when you are at your worst. You should put yourself in that persons shoes as well when you judge him, sometimes you sit on a table and even win couple hands first getting a good stack and than you start to lose and you lose more and more which than feels like your whole life depends on the next hand and you keep on losing and feel the dread of what will you do next with no money and than of course all hormones attacks to your brain which makes you angry at anything at all.
2720  Economy / Economics / Re: Does it helpful when blockchain integrated to government system? on: June 11, 2019, 11:10:23 AM
Okay, you're right, there is transparency but does that mean you're able to discover what was done with the money and who is behind it?? Unless the government are going to come for it with kyc so that anything you do they will be able to trace you with it and know what you have done with the money. But if it's going to be as it is right now (anonymous) then it is the worst thing because it makes no sense… it will only be showing you transactions but you don't know who is behind the transactions that were made… so how is that helping?? Everything better be as it is, the government shouldn't come into cryptocurrency.
