2721  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Affiliates (Paid Streamers) - Fair or Not to other non-paid gamblers? on: September 02, 2021, 05:27:33 PM
I wish mcdonald's and assorted fast food franchises would give out more food vouchers to those willing to stream themselves eating in their restaurants. It seems like a natural progression. With the advent of the internet and live streaming the trend may be inevitable. I think the novelty factor will eventually wear thin as people become desensitized to the advertising and hype.
Not sure about those eating in their outlets but food brands do sponsor a lot of streamers. For example, there are guys like Matt Stonie who make videos about fast eating and finishing a menu from a particular brand like KYC within a time period. I am not 100% sure but they must be sponsored by the brand because it helps both the streamer and the brand.

If a streamer can gamble with $100,000+ and fail to profit. That could make for a good crash test dummy system.
That's right but the real point is streamers trying to fake that dummy balance as real and hyping their wins.

If they gave me $100,000 to gamble on sports & stream it. There's a chance I'll be walking away with more than $100,000. And that's how it should be.
Well, the funds sponsored by the casino are normally play-only types of funds. You can play, stream and have fun with them but cannot withdraw.

Love you stake, I really mean it.

I was in the stake chat and some guys were making predictions for the UFC fights, without having too much knowledge about the fights I tailed some bets and lost them. I had no idea what happened because I wasn't watching the streaming either.

The next day I see a message from support with a refund. I was so happy because I lost almost all my balance and it feels super amazing to get a refund for a bet which I wasn't aware of how it lost in the first place.

This was the message - http://prntscr.com/1qwzk6v if anyone else wants they can try and claim if they made a bet on this fight and lost.

Ronaldo takes the Juventus team on his back. If not for him, they wouldn't even have finished second in Serie A last year.
Now, without Ronaldo, they really have to organize themselves and be more consistent, otherwise they will have a difficult season.
I have to say that the reality is the fact that when you have a player like Ronaldo, then you do let him carry your team because it is such an amazing thing, it is obvious that people end up being a bit more reliant on their best players because they can be and it provides results as well. Now that Ronaldo is gone, it is just a bad thing, it could also be a good thing if they can use this very well. How could it be a good thing?

Well, they could now remove all the responsibilities that Ronaldo had, and they would be able to distribute that to the whole team and they could work hard all together instead of just hoping that one player could win them the game. This will take some time of course, maybe this year will suck, but I know that if they could become 11 man team all playing like a machine, then they could become a very well team that wins a lot once again.
2724  Economy / Gambling / Re: Booi (Fiat/Crypto Casino) on: September 01, 2021, 01:03:31 PM
Based up on https://booi.com/en/terms-and-conditions

7.5 To register a Game Account, The player should enter his/her Personal Data in the Personal Account, particular the players first name,last name, date of birth,gender,phone number,country of
residence,city.

Its not cleared out if this is only into the current fiat players and there would be some exemption on crypto gamblers.So this should really be clarified out.

Most likely, verification will be needed anyway. Given that they have licenses for everything, they will be asked to go through the identification procedure for various reasons.
One of which will be trivial - money laundering, for example.
When you play at any site that has licenses and accepts fiat currencies, it's almost guaranteed the platform will ask for KYC at some point even if they don't ask while creating an account and depositing money. I have played at bet365 for a long time and although they are among the best in the business but they don't ask KYC when you register an account but will make it compulsory when you try to withdraw money.

The name of the platform is quite unique/weird but I have seen even extreme names. I checked the promo page and looks like they are doing a lot of promotions which is good.

If you are really into business , there is no reason for the word Busy if the involved is something that you are gaining then you must put some time.

and also the person involve is continuously making communication in which i think reasonable to answer .

hope lightlord is handling this in their best .
If you are in business, you would know that everyone is busy at all times, it is quite common. I remember during my peak working period, I was so busy for so long that I ended up with way more than I can handle and I had to postpone so many things all the time, I did that until I wasn't too busy. Good thing was I listed them, so I never really postponed something and then did something brand new instead of that, I always did my work based on timing and never took anything more than one week to handle, and yes lightlord is doing it a bit later than he should but at the end of the day he is doing it and that is what all it matters.

I believe that we should definitely pressure him to be more active, not as active as like be here all the time, but be active enough to pay people on time and handle the withdrawals as well, that is the bare minimum needed.
2726  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Credit card bans introduced in Ireland. on: August 31, 2021, 05:08:27 PM
Banning of credit cards for gambling activities will increase the crypto gambling for sure, anyone remembers when people actually started recognizing bitcoin when the government banned the payment processors for WikiLeaks website donations that is when the first bump for the bitcoin happened.
I agree. When there are restrictions for traditional things then modern things will find a boom. In my opinion, banning anything related to gambling will not serve the actual purposes as gamblers will find another method to simply continue their actual routines.

this ban won't change a thing on the status of gambling in Ireland because the people will use crypto as an alternative.
This is what exactly happens everywhere. Even gambling houses itself tried for lots of restrictions to keep gamblers safer but nothing worked as VPN/alternate accounts kind of things easily bypassed such restrictions. So, these credit card banning may not last forever as gambling houses may not find any fall in their revenues.

No changes in the batting order and inclusion of Ashwin and Thakur might able to do some damage control because our middle order is not in great form and Pant is looking dim too.
I guess that India must need to look at Rahane and may play Vihari or Surya Kumar in that place. Pant may get another chance as he is alright with wicket keeping job hence if he fires up then that might be some extra runs for India otherwise lower orders may need to take care of that.

Jaddu, Ashwin, Thakur batting at number 7,8,9 looks okay.
I remember India played 2 spinners for the final of world test championship but that did not work for them. Hence, I doubt Kohli may go for that again for English conditions.
2728  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Big sad on: August 30, 2021, 08:50:38 PM
I havnt been paying attention to the price of my crypto due to school, and other stuff going on. A month ago I turned 2/3 of my cardano into bitcoin. I looked today to check my gains/losses. I would have doubled my investment if I kept my cardano. I am not gonna let it get to me, but it could have been pretty cool if I held it. hats off to the people that have the patience to hold coins going nowhere for a while.
Crypto life is full of opportunities, unfortunately I do not have too much time in my life to check them all, but give me a bit of time and a bit of money and I can build a whole system that could work for you to figure out the best chances at that moment at all moments and taking advantage of every single possible way to make money. It could be something as simple as signature campaign to having a full blown crypto full-time job to making money from other projects by being part of them to many other stuff.

Long story short crypto is filled with many chances to make money, it could be from trading, investing, working or even gambling as well. I am quite happy with the world we are living in, if there was no crypto then I would be living a horrible life. I was insanely lucky to meet my boss and right now I am living the best life I can imagine, if you asked me 10 years ago, my "dream" life wouldn't even be this, this is beyond better than what my dream would be, it is amazing. So just wait, and you will face some chances once again and make a profit next time.
2729  Economy / Gambling / Re: 1XBIT.COM ᐉ 7 BTC WB ᐉ Altcoin Betting ᐉ no KYC on: August 30, 2021, 07:14:00 PM
I've checked your post history and this is the second complaint on 1XBIT the first one was the failure of 1XBIT to close your account, so you continue playing even if you knew that the site is not trustworthy, still rattle me why continue playing and depositing when you have a complaint already and you know the reputation of 1XBIT, is there no other gambling site that meets your preferences.

The allegation is incredulous this is something new and also like to see how 1XBIT can defend this kind of allegation.
How about instead of victim shaming the dude to keep on gambling here, why don't we face the real problem which is 1xbit is not helping him at all with his problem. That seems like the biggest problem here because 1xbit should not be trusted with gambling there as long as they keep doing this sort of thing. Look at their trust rating at this point, they are getting to a dangerous place of being obvious scam and getting banned from here all together, and here you are talking about the guy who got scammed like he did something wrong.

I hope that he gets his money back but I do not see it happening at all. At the end of the day 1xbit is a very risky place to gamble and whoever does it, knowingly or not, should not be victim shamed but helped. We need to create topics about all the problems and how they are not getting solved at all to warn every new gambler.
2730  Economy / Economics / Re: The Role of Government in Crypto on: August 29, 2021, 09:06:46 PM
the primary role of government is to provide a regulatory framework in an economy, Government sole responsibility is to provide a guideline on how thing are to be done within their jurisdictions.

this is not different with cryptocurrency although cryptocurrency is created with high anonymous the truth remains that cryptocurrency co-exist with other factors in the economy such as the bank and the traditional currencies, for crypto to become a full flesh currency it need to under go government regulation because that is the only way cryptocurrency will be considered a legal currency.
I would say that it is really not that easy to make sure that you end up with making as much profit as you hope in crypto by considering what the governments of the world will do. If you are a miner, you mine bitcoins and you keep doing that as long as you can, until the very last day that you are allowed (or profitable) because that is what you do, it is what you make money from and you should continue to do that for a long time.

If you believe that china will ban it (already did) then no Chinese miner would have made that money, they would all be going around thinking it will be somehow banned and then they would have not made that much profit until it was banned. Were there some that lost money because they just invested and it got banned right after? Sure there could have been, but there were also huge companies that made billions from this as well.
2731  Economy / Economics / Re: Cryptocurrency and entertainment. on: August 29, 2021, 08:05:58 PM
What do you think is the biggest news cryptocurrency needs that will increase its popularity?
I disagree with that. Yes you need the news to be relevant, but it’d good that you avoid bad news as much as possible. I know a lot of celebrities this day that bad news has ruined their career and they are now nowhere to be found, nobody talks about them any longer, not even the news, and it looks like they have fallen into a dark pit where they will never return.

Bitcoin is still “young” and the least thing we need now is the news saying bad about Bitcoin, it’s not good. The reason why you’re still seeing bitcoin is because there are lots of good news to cover up for every single bad news that drops. Whenever they say anything bad about Bitcoin, there will always be something good that will happen to prove them wrong. If it has been just bad news, then believe me, by now we might not be talking about Bitcoin any longer. So it’s good to always try and avoid bad news, even if you have seen people who were able to stay relevant with it, the case might not be the same for you.

^^I do not get why KYC is supported by the people, I get casinos why the people? I mean what do you get in return from this? How does it help you out in the long term? Casinos do this because they are both required by law in most cases and that is understandable, but also they want to do it to prevent scammers and hackers to steal money from people, and even in a better situation if you do end up stealing money from other people somewhere else, like let's say in an exchange or defi or whatever then you can't just put your money on roobet and withdraw it because there is KYC and you will be asked to provide your information as a hacker and you can't. However these all benefit the casino, regular people like me who are not hackers or anything should not be forced to give our KYC, I can promise you that even on small amounts roobet asks for KYC, and that just doesn't make sense.
2733  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [TEZOS] Is Tezos a low cap gem? on: August 28, 2021, 06:25:23 PM
Tezos [TEZOS] was recommended by some experts and is now a partner of Red Bull and McLaren Mercedes Formel 1.
Experts say, Tezos can be huge.
Right now, it has a very low market cap.
What price do you beleive can [TEZOS] do? It is currently at 2,94 Dollar and a Market Cap rank of only place 40.
It has increased wonderfully and I do like it, however we should realize that it is so far away from the 8+ dollars it once was, and there is a long way to go there. I assume that it could break that in the very long term if we have another bull, it is like 2x to go and many altcoins can easily do that given enough hype, but an old coin getting a brand new hype is usually not a common thing, which is why I do not think that it could do that anytime soon.

Definitely maybe on the next bull run instead of this one it could reach those levels, even without hype having two bull runs increase your price will give you a huge return but that means it will take a few years for it to get there. I would say that the best case would be to look for other coins that could eventually give a return that makes sense in the short term instead of looking at coins like Tezos.
2734  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Future vs Spot Trading on: August 28, 2021, 01:19:19 PM
Some people do really think off that they can deal with Futures/Leverage trades easily? They do consider it out if they do fail in Spot? They'll surely realize later on when they do burned out
theirselves in Futures.

People wont believe until they would truly experience it by their own hands.So let them be if they wont really be listening out on peoples advice on here that Futures is more riskier than with Spot.

It would be more worth if they do master out first on doing spot trading before considering on going to futures which at least do really give out some chance for you to make some profits.
Even spot trading is not something you should do if you are not very smart about it, I personally try to stay away from it as much as I can, try to avoid it as long as I can because it makes no sense to trade without having the courage and the data to back you up, so if I know what I am doing on certain trades I do it, but I do not chase trades, I just put my data requirements there, and if anything hits then I trade and that's it.

When spot trading is this hard, and not everyone makes money, then what is the point of someone actually going for futures trading, there are already so little amount of people that make profit consistently on spot trading, and only a handful of ones in them make money consistently on futures trading. I am not saying making a profit, I am saying consistently making profit because everyone could make a profit once in a while.
2735  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What is stop loss and how it works on: August 28, 2021, 09:45:48 AM
A stop-loss order is an order placed with a broker to buy or sell a specific stock once the stock reaches a certain price. A stop-loss is designed to limit an investor's loss on a security position. For example, setting a stop-loss order for 10% below the price at which you bought the stock will limit your loss to 10%.
I respect that you took the time to explain it but I don't know why people cannot google such simple things because creating a thread just to learn stop-loss is really tiring. If something unique is asked, I can understand that Google may not have enough information about that topic but stop-loss is a very basic aspect of trading.

I saw most of the trader that are using stop loss, and it is a good step, or even we can say as a good habit to use stop loss while trading, It helps traders a lot because it only only make your loss at a stage corresponding to zero but it also give you a step for further more trading, That you didn't thing that it can also happen.
It was hard to understand what you were trying to say but after reading the comment 3-4 times, I have an idea what you mean. Actually stop-loss saves you from potential zero but it always takes away chances of recovery. I am not against stop-loss but facts are facts.
2736  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online sexy casinos on: August 27, 2021, 07:43:51 PM
Think about it this way, when you build a new casino what is the most important thing an owner needs to do? Get as many people to gamble in his casino as possible. What is a better marketing strategy than "come here, you get to gamble and see boobies as well!!" it is literally the most genius way of doing marketing ever. You don't even have to have a casino with live nude women neither, just do a regular casino with just videos, gifs, pictures of women and you will still get a great marketing out of it as well.

This is why I believe that people should not be really shocked to learn that people are willing to start nsfw casinos. Of course downside is that people play it hidden from everyone else, you do not end up gambling at a sexy casino on the bus, you can do slots with fruits easily without getting worried but not nude women, that would be illegal in most cases as well.
2737  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why people buying NFT on: August 27, 2021, 05:49:38 PM
I just wonder why people buying NFT artworks like cryptopunks. I am not against NFT and I love it. I actually own some NFT games accounts like CB, Axie, Dpets because I am earning from it.. But for NFT artworks can you tell me what is the benefits. And why some of the people buying it?
I think people are buying such NFT artworks for the same purpose that they will buy it in real life. I also used to wonder why people would pay for actual artworks and with time I started to understand why. Some of them are being bought as a collection and people will use them to form a collection library, as time goes on these people may decide to sell these collections and make money from it as well, the worth will keep increasing.

So, NFT imitates the same thing, they are buying them as a collection and they might decide to sell them later, whatever their choice may be. And also I think that you can also profit from NFT artworks you buy when people download and share any artwork you own.
2738  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: About NFT on: August 26, 2021, 05:51:35 PM
I was checking all the "play to earn" games today, not actually playing them but actually checking what kind of games they are, and I have to say that I am impressed. These are the type of things that could sustain over long period of time if there are other people playing coming in constantly. Think about it, we are talking about people who are just playing a game and making money from it, and yes you have to spend a bit of money to start playing for almost all of them, but at the end of the day if you could make money then spending a bit at first doesn't seem too bad for many people.

I have checked axie as it was the most popular one, but I have checked others as well and they all look great, especially the ones based on enjin because they were 3d rpg games like lost relics and you could make some serious money with them. One guy made about $600 in 10 hours because he was a very high level guy and got lucky with some gold eggs. How could you not love that idea?
It is literally all about hype and demand, nothing more. The moment axie infinity people start caring about making more money there, the moment they realize they just want to cash out, the price of everything there will fall and it will not make people too much money.

Right now it costs so much to breed a new one, but same was true for cryptokitties back in the day, it was highly expensive to breed a new one and that is why all of them were expensive, sometime in the future, people start to not buy too many axies, the demand for it goes down, people do not want to pay 200-300 just for one of them, this causes all the axies on market not to be sold, and then people start to drop their prices to sell, and when that drops the cost drops with it because people will not buy SLP for a lot of money and then make a loss when they sell, all in all everything falls, and the market starts to suck. That is just one game, this will happen to the whole market one day, maybe tomorrow, maybe in 3 years, who knows?

0-0 definitely possible in every week, and when you have 7 games, it's almost a guarantee. Take away own goals, which sometimes can win a match, and it becomes even more possible.

So we look to early and end season where energy levels are high (to score) or low (to make mistakes).
I believe it is definitely going to be a long season and there will definitely be a lot of 0-0 that's true, BUT the reason why I said this was the fact that someone won from the very first week, and that caused a lot of people to believe that it is quite simple. Not only the fact that 7/7 is hard, like even if there were goals in every match, you need to know 7 of the scorers in all those 7 matches and that is as incredibly difficult as it gets.

However, on top of that we are talking about all those games where there are zero zero results and own goals as well like you said, so that means that we have double the trouble, not only 7 scorers, but also the fact that some weeks are cancelled already is the biggest trouble. In any case, it is free entry, so even if it goes like that, who cares what is going on and just enjoy it, not like we will ever lose money here.
2740  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: August 25, 2021, 05:27:22 PM
PSG is paying so much for Messi and all other players, that could be one of the reasons. Mbappe is not getting that much in offers, if you offer Mbappe 50 million a year, or 70 million a year, I do not think that there is any chance that he would ever leave, but if you offer him 20-30 then he is going to refuse it because he could get that from anywhere else in the world.

This is why I believe that we should be looking into why PSG not offering that much money, did Mbappe refused a 70 million a year offer from PSG? No he didn't, which means that the ball is still on PSG court and I think they could convince him. PSG is not selling him, if you are not selling him for 150-160 then you are not going to sell him for anything, not like Real could offer 500 or something, the max they would do is 200 and these teams are wealthy as hell and they do not need extra 40-50 million, they could make that easily with sale of one more player they are not even playing.
