I am pretty sure that it is hard to "prevent" bot but it is easier to punish bot. How? Well, you can't check every single person who wagers, which is an impossible task because it is highly unlikely that you will face any problems in that many bets, you will see only a few, which should be bots, why check one in a million when you can check one in 50k? So that means you check after people win, and after they win you don't check all of it, which drops the number even more, you only check the ones that do not have KYC that do not have any patterns before and so forth.

That leaves only the people that ended up winning and also looking shady, and that is the only thing that really matters. Which is why I personally believe that we should be understanding towards the casinos who take the bets of bots, but also bans them after they win, it is easier that way (and profitable too).
That's a bit cheeky though isn't it? I am not saying it is wrong, it is obviously not wrong because that is the correct method that almost every casino uses. So how can you really blame bitsler for something that every single other casino does? That is why I am not saying it is a wrong thing to do by bitsler. However even though all casinos do it, that is still a bit cheeky isn't it?

It is basically something that bitsler and all other casinos does but at the same time it should not be that way, there should be "prevention" before it even happens. Think about it, you let the shady people gamble, if they lose then you get to keep their money, and if they win then you say they tried to scam and they end up still keeping the casino as well. So long story short casinos get to keep all those scammers money anyway, instead of preventing and that is a bit cheeky, still quite fair grounds though.
2763  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What are some interesting ways you've introduced bitcoin to your friends? on: July 06, 2021, 06:52:56 PM
I have informed countless online and offline peers about cryptocurrency and bitcoins specifically. One of the recent experiences I will share below.

A friend of mine used to work at Fiverr and he was scammed by a buyer after he completed the entire order, the seller even released the payment but after a few days, the buyer just made a chargeback and claimed all his money back through PayPal. That day I got to the buyer can pay through PayPal and just open a dispute and get his money back without any problems.

My friend worked 2 weeks continuously on that project and it was a heartbreak for him when this happened. That was the right time I felt I should inform him about bitcoins and ask the buyers to pay in bitcoins because there is nothing that can be done once you are paid in bitcoins.

https://stake.com/settings/verify ----> Doesn't give me the option to edit. ( Can't see the edit button if there is ) . If I hover my cursor towards the textbox it shows an icon(which looks like the red sign I drew. ) that the box is not available to be edited.


That's strange because stake claimed in their announcement every time that players are allowed to edit the details at a later stage if required. My guess is that players are still allowed to change but because it shouldn't be a joke, they must contact support or their respective VIP managers, if they have one, to get the details edited. It might be because otherwise everyone would enter fake details initially and claim the extra bonus and the recent $10 they offered for level-1 verification.

I don't understand the recent push from stake for players to verify their details. Crypto betting is meant to be anonymous and I know the bonuses for regular players aren't being reduced but it feels odd to get a lesser bonus just because another player has completed his verification process.
2765  Economy / Gambling / Re: 🔥Sportbook and Casino: BITSLER > $10,000 DAILY Wagering contest < on: July 06, 2021, 04:05:10 PM
Have you noticed that bitsler has changed their captcha to claim bitsler coin. I do not understand why they need captcha for claiming bitsler coin as well as nitro. They may ask to provide captcha verification before login. And also they may ask same for withdrawal. But asking for free coin they should not ask for this type of verification.
I think that is because the players were cheating the casino with bots. I am assuming that because another casino recently implemented captchas for every reload claim we make and when I asked more about it, I got to know that some players have created bots and code that was claiming the faucets all day without any effort.

I understand that BTSLR coins are meant for fun but because there is a balance contest going on with it, that rewards players with real coins for the winners, they had to implement it, I think. I agree though that too many captchas kill the fun because it is hard to fill those captchas all the time and then lose it all in a single click. I used to stack bitsler coins and then play them with a 10x or 20x multiplier but now it's just too hard.
2766  Economy / Speculation / Re: The Next 10 years of Bitcoin? on: July 06, 2021, 01:02:20 PM
However if you stopped that, made a good portfolio, just add on it every time you have some money and do this for 10 years? You are going to retire, I do not care if you work for minimum wage or part time and age 20, if you do this you are going to be able to retire in 10 years. Because people should be able to throw in 50 bucks at least maybe more into bitcoin every month and when the price goes 100x and more that means you are going to profit a lot since you put in every month.
That's a realistic yet unbelievable reality you are talking about. I mean surely we can all afford to put $100 worth of bitcoins in a wallet for the next 10 years and maybe we don't ever have to work after the 10 year period, like you said just retire!

I have seen people paying premiums for their life insurances much higher than $100/month and I wish I was able to convince myself to put $50 or 100 every month into a wallet. I guess it's not too late just yet and you might have given me a really good roadmap for my life. I am not even joking right now.

Making $100 is really easy as a part of many crypto projects and airdrops and all, I can easily manage that much per month. I wish to see you here at the forum after 10 years hopefully Smiley.
2767  Economy / Speculation / Re: How low will Bitcoin go? on: July 06, 2021, 09:12:14 AM
I like when you said "it will goes back up" it's make me feel comfy, and the fact is like what you said above. The price will goes up and down depend on market supply and demand, with some issues and rumors, BTC will always goes up. IMHO no one can resist the existing of bitcoin and his technology, it's just about time when it will explode.
And price should never define whether it's time for BTC to shut down. I mean price volatility has always been associated with the crypto markets and if you are deciding the future of crypto just after a bear run, then it shows we still don't trust bitcoin and the mechanism.

Guys remember the governments would have banned crypto by now if they were able to but just like you cannot ban people signing in their bathrooms, you cannot ban people from transacting crypto even after a ban has been imposed.

The crypto market just needs some faith and trust from us, some of us have made a life out of bitcoins and at least when the market is down and outsiders are trying to kill it, we as a community should show some trust in our currency. Bitcoin was made for the people and if people don't trust it, then it cannot last forever.
2768  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Market is recovering, what steps are you taking? on: July 06, 2021, 06:57:10 AM
I still wait for the market recovery, these small steps towards up are fake unless the weekly candle breaks resistance levels. After a huge drop, I wanna add more Eth to portfolio, the potentially bigger trend can be real on next market cycle. Maybe next cycle will bring more opportunities but we can't predict what will happen.
Yeah these small movements can be deceptive and signal a market recovery while it won't happen anytime soon. I think investors who have a long term vision don't need to worry but as a dynamic traders, we must wait a little bit more before we start getting too optimistic about recovery and a new ATH. Maybe the end of the year is a good estimation for a recovery.

It's a good sign and the step that we have to take is to be determined if you're into accumulation and holding.
Yeah that is the reason, we are closely watching market movements  to confirm that the market turns into recovery or still into sideways or correction phase. Still, we can simply go buying bitcoins right now and hold them for quick and easy prifits.
2769  Economy / Economics / Re: Will banking system in Bangladesh collapse? on: July 06, 2021, 06:18:10 AM
I think their government should look for another means to handle this case, maybe the lockdown isn’t a better option right now, they should consider other means that are going to help keep their economy stable, and prevent it from collapsing. But, I think if this continues like this, the government in that your country may start placing limits on the amount of withdrawals that people can make in a day.

I have seen countries that did this kind of thing, and people then had to rely mostly on online transactions. Whatever plans they have, I hope they do the right thing.
2770  Economy / Economics / Re: Vietnam Becomes Latest Country to Turn to Crypto on: July 05, 2021, 09:15:18 PM
I've invested lately on Vietnam based blockchain project and I saw on there old announcement that some Vietnamese government official is directly involve on the project. They launched many conferences too in there country with a strong support from there government. Vietnam right now are starting to adapt cryptocurrency technology and its a very good news.
Indeed it's bright news especially since they have been against crypto and even banned it in past. I am glad they had the intelligence to understand that banning crypto doesn't help the cause instead adopting and launching through it was the right move.

I agree with @stompix though because as bitter it may sound, it's true that blockchain technology adoption doesn't mean bitcoin will get any sort of legalization or help from the government.

I am not buying the idea of centralized blockchain-based cryptocurrency for every country because it's similar to making a digital wallet and transactions more transparent, that's about it.
2771  Economy / Gambling / Re: 🚀 Sportsbet.io- Club House- The best EURO 2021 promotions around!!🚀 on: July 05, 2021, 08:33:32 PM
Those are my three choices in my mind, either go all in for England, or not bet at all, or make a stupid bet with small amount. But I do agree that Italy vs England should be the finals, that is at least how I wagered, and I am hoping that it becomes reality. I think that could be easily done if Italy doesn't shock the world and fail to win against Spain, that is the closest game, England should have zero problems against Denmark.

Although I also think that England will win Denmark. Denmark is very strong and having a very well organized game. It will not be an easy game for England. No wonder this was the first game in which England had conceded a goal, despite winning the match.
Denmark is good and all but they didn't came from the hardest path at all, they do deserve to be in semi finals as much as anyone, but they basically played easier opponents than most. They faced Czechia in the quarters, and Wales before that, and their group had Belgium which one all the games anyway, Finland and Russia as well and it was obvious they were worse. So, it wasn't really a shock to the world that they came to semi finals not because they are great, but because they faced easier opponents all the way here.

However they still managed to beat them, I mean look at France, they lost to a much worse team on paper, so it is not really that small achievement to reach to semi-finals no matter who you face, it is always 90 minutes and everyone is equal for that 90 minutes on the pitch and doesn't matter who we think is better or not, anything could happen.
2772  Economy / Gambling / Re: 1XBIT.COM ᐉ 3 BTC Lottery ᐉ Altcoin Betting ᐉ no KYC on: July 05, 2021, 06:35:56 PM
it's not arbitrage , you simply just scam any winner regardless
why you don't allow players who got banned to access their accounts ? you can simply just freeze their ability to bet and withdraw but you decide to remove the whole access so they can't share their betslips and expose your BS
We should keep this up because 1XBIT management just wants to show the people that they are resolving the issues, but the accusations just keep coming in, our obligation to point out that they are not living up to people's expectations to resolve all remaining and existing accusations if we stop reminding people about 1XBIT the existing accusation, people will think that all issues are resolved and nothing more coming.
Exactly and they are even doing the signature campaign. I wish they had the decency of spending the money in resolving and paying out players they have scammed. It feels bad someone can operate a scam as cleanly and openly as they are doing. I thought they will resolve the problems when they claimed they have an intention of doing so but ended up scamming just more players.

Anyone reading this comment, the site in OP is a scam and please avoid playing there. You WILL most likely end up being a victim of their selective scam policy.

So many negative feedbacks and accusations cannot be imaginary and false, please avoid playing at 1xbit, for anyone reading this.
2773  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Stake.com - Two Mysterious Bets. Scammed Out of 53113 Trx on: July 05, 2021, 05:43:24 PM
Well, I just realized that sessions too can be deleted by the person logged in. Anyway, try your luck with these guys by sending them PMs if you can. They are affiliated with stake.com in this forum. Maybe they can help solve your problem.

1. Stunna
2. Symphonized
3. DusanD
4. SteveStake
I am sure Dusan can help, I have myself got into a pickle in past and he was able to help me out and was polite enough despite I was the one who made the mistake technically.

I don't think Symphonized can help because she (I assume it's a girl) is meant to only post updates on races and giveaways on the forum.

Steve can help but I actually think Dusan or Darko on the site would be the best people to ask for help on such matters although both of them are sports managers but they always want to help in any matter.
2774  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Telegram scammers wasting time and piss off on: July 05, 2021, 02:42:50 PM
If you check the transactions to the address then you will see for an inbound tx there is an outbound tx almost immidiatly. This determins this is an address for any online service and I am gussing this is an address from an exchange.
It might be from a gambling site as well, I meet a lot of scammers on telegram daily and most of them are desperate gamblers.

It was a very urgent job besides he even was on my Telegram list from long ago. I warned the employer not to pay him anything upfront but since it was just $30 and the urgency was what mattered, the employer took the risk.
It's really unfortunate that the guy was on your list for a long time yet he scammed, a good thing he couldn't run away with more than 30 bucks.

At the end we wasted time with him. Good thing that a forum member completed the job and he did excellent work.
At least you got the task completed, nice.

I believe anyone who doesn't agree with escrow or doesn't trust you despite you having such a clean record and trusted profile, is either not serious/scammer or just part of the forum at all.
2775  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to deal with bear markets on: July 05, 2021, 10:54:33 AM
I think that the best way to deal with bear markets is to just use futures trading. Idk it's often ignored especially when it gives you the possibility to open a short position and choose desirable leverage up to 100 and more, depending on the exchange and the coin.
Not a bad option, indeed. But the problem and probably the reason why most traders fear futures is because even though the market is bearish and you know it should go down even more, it can always spike higher and you will either need to deposit more to save your position or just watch your funds get liquidated because with 100x you will get liquidated at 1% of the hike, I believe.

When bitcoin started fall after Musk's statement + China's announcement of the mining ban, you could immediately sell your coins and open a short position on futures trading section. I think it's 100x better option than just holding unless you truly support the project or don't care much about maximizing the gains.
That's true but again the point remains, it's risky given the market moves up and down constantly and even during a bearish market, it can swing in either direction. Maybe a 10x is a safer option given the small hikes won't increase the price by 10% when such news is being spread like China banning crypto mining and Musk already causing problems by those energy consumption comments.
2776  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is Cryptocurrency a Good Investment? on: July 05, 2021, 09:36:37 AM
Cryptocurrency is a good investment if you invest it right! It's really not as easy as you and many people think. The cryptocurrency market is flooded with low-quality,scam projects; and investors' job is to find information, then select reliable, high-quality projects! Besides, I don't think investing when the market is Fomo, waiting for opportunities when the market corrects.

P/s: It seems that your suggestions are all Top coin. It is suitable for those who want to invest for the long term, Doge seems quite risky
Exactly and for some reason, new traders feel like every coin is worth investing until they face the raucous reality. It's true that crypto investments are much more worth than non-crypto investments because the market is still expanding but that doesn't mean all the projects are legit and all the promises are true.

If you invest in a serious and legit coin then even 100x is possible but if you made a mistake and invested in either a not-so-serious project or a meme coin, then only Elon Musk God can save you.

Crypto investment is profitable but the precautionary measures you need to take are more than you take in the stable stocks market.
2777  Economy / Gambling / Re: 🚀 Sportsbet.io- Club House- The best EURO 2021 promotions around!!🚀 on: July 04, 2021, 09:08:19 PM
I thought Italy were very impressive last night, I think they are definitely the best team remaining. Two good games today but I just can’t see past Italy now.

I think the final will be Italy - England.
And if so, it will be a great football match, very balanced.

The winner will be hard to predict... but I think it could be England.
I am just glad that we had one stage without shocking results. I finally made some of my money back, and if it is actually Italy vs England in the finals that means I will probably be close to break even as much as I can. After that I am not even sure if I would bet on the finals, or maybe I will go all in and make some stupid bet, like not just who will win but more like "there will be 11 yellow cards" or some stupid thing just for the funs with a small amount.

Those are my three choices in my mind, either go all in for England, or not bet at all, or make a stupid bet with small amount. But I do agree that Italy vs England should be the finals, that is at least how I wagered, and I am hoping that it becomes reality. I think that could be easily done if Italy doesn't shock the world and fail to win against Spain, that is the closest game, England should have zero problems against Denmark.
2778  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: This sh*t ain't for the faint of heart! 😭 on: July 04, 2021, 10:38:25 AM
Sure, if you can afford to lose your money, then go all in. You have to take risks to make profit. You see, when the price went down to almost $30,000 USD and if you had gone all in, you would have already made a lot of profit by now. Risk it and you get the rewards. Play safe, you might make profit, but you will also need a lot of patience to make some good profit. And yeah, the market isn't for the faint heart.
I admit that going all-in might be risky but then if you have some capital that you don't need to rotate for survival then you can easily block it by buying Bitcoins since the value will certainly go up at some time in the future. If the funds you are investing in are required by you for daily trading and survival then going all-in is really not worth it and you will breathe heavily once the price chart goes down.
2779  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Which will be the most valuable altcoin? on: July 03, 2021, 08:41:32 PM
I believe the top three we have right now are in it for the long haul and they will probably stay that way for a long time as well. I am not saying that it will be guaranteed thing, but they do look like they are not going to end up losing anything that easily neither. Just think of it like fastest cars in a race, doesn't mean that they will win the race, but it means they have the biggest chance to win it unless there is a crash somewhere along the way.

At the end of the day we are talking about crypto here and volatility is all around so we could definitely have something that would shock us all and it could be very interesting. I am not putting some other coin going above bitcoin idea aside, even that could happen and in a world where that happens things will be very crazy. However if face nothing shocking like that, the top three will definitely be the best investments.

Hi guys,

We have all done this ^^^ Although I have never landed one.. Brave move from the customer when favorites have literally been falling over  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes
Im guessing the courts are starting to settle in and its going to be a big week and a LOT OF SPORT coming up.

All the best tonight guys, I have no idea on what's going on tonight really and will be betting out of absolute hope  Cool Cool
I don't care if it is purely favorites, this guys biggest bet was 1.75 odds and he has about 10 bets under 1.30 as well which is basically as guaranteed as it gets. However even with that I still think that this is insane, like I never played with this much games in one slip before because it is scary as hell, we have seen a million times how the favorites end up losing, we have seen it plenty of times even just in euro 2021 that is going on right now, it is such an obvious thing to not risk because favorites do not mean that they have to win, favorites could very well lose. This dude put in 16!!! of these favorites to win and that is just crazy.

Lucky that he was right, 44+ odds is nothing to scoff at neither, he may have wagered on just favorites but when you combine them all together that becomes 44+ odds and that shows you how unlikely it is that so many favorites win all at the same time.
