We are all addicts! Some people are addicted to one or two things, some of us are in +10! And that's fine... as long as we know how much we can handle!

Simply, if you love to eat eggs you should know that excessive egg consumption can lead to elevated cholesterol levels! That can ruin your body completely! Too much gambling can empty your bankroll, too much drinking can fuck your body and brain... the same is with coffee, meat, TV, games... all good things can fuck you up if you are not careful, even pussy can fuck you up if you don't know what you are doing!

So don't try to run from something you like, learn how to control it and how to enjoy it without being harmed in the long run... if you want something to last you have to know how to position yourself, what can you afford to lose/give, and what you are searching to get/receive/win! And remember, it's not like it's going to be smoothly every time... you can gamble and lose... you can drink too much and puke/make a mess, you can fuck and you can get some disease! Only with experience, you can recognize situations that can fuck you up/can be a great time! And when you get to experience it's not like a good time is guaranteed, it's just that you know what you can handle even if things go sideways! You knew what you are getting into, you risked and you failed... so what? Tomorrow is another day!

What more can I say? It is really on yourself if you will get addicted to something. No one can limit your activity but yourself. So no one is to blame but yourself from the time you decide to be addicted in gambling. There are initial signs and if you ignore those signs, you will go deeper up until it is hard to get out of the situation. You need to look out for yourself so if you feel you are heading to the wrong direction, initiate the change. Because no one will do it for you.
You would really be ending up on those consequences if you do really let yourself get down or hooked with addiction since we arent that dumb, we can really detect ourselves to be already gradually addicted along the way.

You can feel or see the signs but yourself would really be continuing to deny it since no one does really ever like to be called a gambling addict until the time comes that everything was already in mess.

and this is where people do start to realize that they had spend that much but its already too late to make some action.

Never experienced winning in a lottery the whole time I betting on it. Although most of the time, I'm not really expecting to win. I just like to take a shot as who knows my time will now come to win it.

That Pancakeswap winner is lucky as hitting a lottery there is really difficult providing how many participants joined on it.

Sure someday, I will also experience the same. Smiley
When it comes to transparency then that would always be an issue because we dont know if those winners are really legit ones or just been part of the team just to hype up everything.

I dont expect much on winning lottery because we know the odds that is almost close to impossible.If someone able to hit then they are hell of a lucky guy/woman.

Its up to someone if they are really having fun on betting on lottery but be sure to be aware of the odds and dont spend up too much on tickets.

If you have good knowledge about trading then any trading will become profitable it usually depends on the skill of the individual. Of course forex can be a profitable business if you take forex that way if you want to make money in forex you need to know about forex there is a lot to study about forex then when you trade in forex you need to analyze and trade. Before coming to forex you must trade the demo and then come to profit you have to learn forex on your own analyze it understand it then you can use forex to make a profit.
Trading forex is similar to trading cryptocurrency but with few differences. The forex market is as volatile as crypto with various terms that one needs to understand . The forex market is profit if enough understanding of the market system is studied with consistent chart update to know the possible trend the market is likely to fall on.
Pure understanding of the forex market will help to relate more in Cryptocurrency market.
Its clear that you dont know forex at all and you are just posting for the sake of weekly post qouta of your current signature campaign.

You had mentioned out that forex market is volatile as crypto? thats  typically 101% wrong because if you do have actual experience or knowledge about forex market then for sure you would definitely say the different thing.

Forex is way too far in terms of volatility or shall we say it does move but not the same as crypto that can swing up to -20 or +20% in a day which is opposing to forex that only move out on few percentages.
2784  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Vegas Casinos to allow Cannabis Lounges. on: July 11, 2021, 10:44:21 PM

What's stopping you from smoking weeds before visiting a casino or smoking at home and playing online? In my opinion, mixing different pleasures is a dubious idea, especially in this case - gambling gives adrenaline, and smoking weed relaxes. Thus, you will receive not an increase in sensations, but a weakening.
This is an interesting way to view things, if seen from that perspective the only ones that could benefit from this are the ones that are in the casino not to enjoy the adrenaline rush that it gives, so probably the only ones that can take 100% of the benefits offered by this are those that are there to close down a deal with other people or those that are in fact professional gamblers and that are not there to enjoy their time in the casino but to make money and they need to relax.
No matter what the intentions are it would be still on casinos advantage and of course into those players who do really get some perks like this on taking cannabis or having some good time or relaxation.

You can already see on what are the advantage of giving out this kind of allowing cannabis on casino lounges.You know what are the their motives are but of course you would really

still see that people do love it because its rare to see cannabis to be allowed.

We all know the real reason why casinos decided to allow cannabis, because it will reduce the gambler's chance of winning. And this means that
casinos can make more money, but surprisingly many gamblers don't mind it. Because they can enjoy using cannabis, which not all places
allow cannabis. In the end it comes back to everyone's decision, but as long as there is no coercion from the casino to use cannabis I don't think
it's a problem.
You are correct when you say that, but at the same time the fact that gamblers seem to be happy about this indicates that this is not only a business decision by the casino, this is a also decision that was taken because the gamblers wanted it, which makes sense, the number of gamblers that can earn money at the casino is limited and while the number of people that want to achieve this is higher the majority of the gamblers are people that just want to have a good time and this will help them to achieve exactly that.
Neither that Cannabis lounge was purely decided by the management itself or in result with public or players demands then it doesnt matter because no matter what angle you would be looking at then they would be still having the edge.

I dont really believe much about lessening the chances of winning because luck cant really be influenced by any other external factors that is happening unless if dealing with games
which requires critical thinking then this would mostly be affected on.

Theyll do all sorts of things for their benefit and its always a business.
2785  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is bitcoin a good investment in this pendamic situation? on: July 11, 2021, 09:58:18 PM
Just the price itself is a proof that it isn't a bad investment just take a look how much it goes up during the pandemic,
I think it is enough proof that those people believe that it is a good one to invest and not just Bitcoin but also other crypto as well.
Crypto has been the main source of income by most of us during this pandemic because they lost their jobs or even businesses.
Yes,its  possible but always mind off about the risk involved and dont go all in or put loaned money on it because we know that everything isnt guaranteed on crypto space.

We are on a pandemic situation on where majority cant really that afford on making out investment since we do need to save up for essentials for us to survive specially into those

who do lost up their jobs but if you do really tend to risk then its either you do make profits or lose money but of course you wont be losing anything when you dont sell anything.
2786  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The most profitable gambling strategies, what are they? on: July 11, 2021, 09:21:19 PM
Many new gamblers think there is a strategy that works.While certain strategies may work a certain amount of time it does not mean that they are real strategies,they have just been lucky.In the end there is no real strategy that can make you winning in the long term while you gamble.
When a person decides to gamble, then they must also understand what the risks are. “Be a responsible gambler” seems to be always suggested by many people and even gambling site have suggested to bettors on the home page of the site. Strategy also still requires luck, they will win but also they must be prepared to lose.
Being responsible when you do gamble does really sound pretty basic but this is really something that everyone do fail to do so because they would totally just forget that they should have good control.

There's no such thing about most profitable gambling strategy because everything could bust up in a second because gambling is always been risky and not guaranteed.

We have tons if you do tend to look at to those strategies but you should not fix and believe that those things are holy grail to gambling.
2787  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Crypto bans are temporary, we are on the right side of history. on: July 11, 2021, 08:55:46 PM
I don't think every government is smart enough to know about bitcoin instantly as they did and banning it or at least trying to ban it and only the ignorant people were the victim of this  fear caused by the government to panic sell bitcoin and another crypto, and then government buys a chunk or crypto and removes the ban and people cannot complain about it, this is quite retarded and proves the point "A fool is bound to lose the money and continues losing it without learning anything"
The extreme steps taken by some of the governments jumping in to ban the entire cryptocurrency market is childish and the reason is because they do not understand the cryptocurrency market and they make their decision from hear say rather than having someone who understands the market. I am hoping that these foolish government would learn from their mistakes and overturn their decisions when the developed world accepts Bitcoin.
Well, I like the term [the foolish government] we don't know if they are aware or unaware that bitcoin is impossible to be regulated and even though how many times banning it will always exist and people will using and holding this without even knowing by the government. Lucky those countries who adopted bitcoin and people use it like El Salvador that it is a legal tender. However, there are countries that also only have a neutral treatment to the bitcoin, and those completely ignoring bitcoin someday, you will know how really worth it.
Majority of countries are still on observation mode or still in neutral which they cant really make out some decision if they would be adopting it or banning it or would remain neutral.

Government does have their own point of view so its really to predict on what theyre next movement because decisions and bills would really be just popping out from nowhere.

Bitcoin cant really be stopped no matter how hard they do try.In talks about realizing the truth, for sure  they are still finding up ways on how to get rid with it.
2788  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: You got a pifzer ? Then you can be eligible for lottery in Poland. on: July 10, 2021, 10:57:55 PM
I haven't found an article that reports that someone died after being injected with the vaccine, if there is, I think there are other factors that caused
the person to die after getting the vaccine. Because before the vaccine is distributed, it will be tested properly, so I have a little doubt that the vaccine
can cause someone to die. It is possible that people who have been injected with the vaccine only feel mild symptoms, and do not cause death.
Until now the injection of vaccines in several countries has proven effective, starting to control the spread of the virus, although it has not been able
to completely remove the virus.
There are actually reports that have been romanticized by the medias that after getting jabs, those people died. But they don't highlight what's the actual reason of it, like those adults that have taken the shot and then afterwards they got the side effect and eventually died.
Most vaccines are still in the trial phase but they've been assured that they're effective to fight against the covid-19 virus. And there's much better result with those countries that got most of their citizens vaccinated and this is what Poland is trying to do.
For sure the media wouldnt really tend to show it up to public in terms of those people who died because of vaccine side effects.Why? this would create panic and would really be

changing up someones mind on getting a shot and of course this would affect business as well because people would already be hesitant on getting vaccinated.

Having some lottery chance is a good initiative but wont really be enough to convince people.
2789  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What happens to the coins after your death ? on: July 10, 2021, 10:24:12 PM
You must involve someone from a family member that you really trust and it is impossible for a brother or sister to betray your trust, if you have a wife then it is better to teach knowledge about how to access bitcoin assets even if it is not yet time for you to provide the seed of ultimate balance but at least it will help your family if you died.
You do told them about on how to access funds on a wallet but you should at least do make some will in case you die on where they are the only ones who could access those files and wallets

which would be a good preparation because we dont know on what comes next and since we cant predict on when we would die then its just good to consider on having these kind of back up plans

rather than making those coins would be put up to waste if you dont intend to share it up on your loved ones. Death is inevitable and this is why its better to trust up one of the family
which be most likely to be your wife.
2790  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What does it take for a game to "hook" people on: July 10, 2021, 08:55:11 PM
High profitability is the major factor that makes me and other gamblers get hooked to specific games. In reality every user have different reason for playing different games and the hope of winning keeps them hooked than those strategies and regular moves.
Then how does high profitability could be spot on? People would normally stick out on gambling sites on where they do hit big and that kind of believe that it is a good site with better chances of winning

but doesnt mind off that it is really just the same and its just coincidence that he had able to win out a particular game on that particular time and doesnt mean that he would repeat the whole process

on the next day.Its a common gambler behavior and it isnt surprising that when they do won on other new place then they would just simply skip out.
2791  Economy / Economics / Re: How long will it take for CBDCs to become a reality? on: July 10, 2021, 07:49:02 PM
I've heard about some countries beginning the development of a CBDC (Central Bank Digital Currency). With crypto/Blockchain tech becoming extremely popular since the start of the pandemic a year ago, we'll be heading to a new era where paper money will cease to exist. Crypto still has some challenges to overcome (like scalability, fungibility, and volatility). This will not be a problem with CBDCs as they will be manipulated by governments and central banks to a greater extent than today's Fiat currencies. All it takes is for central banks to copy Bitcoin's (or Ethereum's) code to start their own digital currencies for the whole world to use.

Now, the real deal would be getting people to adopt a new kind of money when they're used to paper money and credit/debit cards. Not everyone is quite fond with crypto/Blockchain tech these days. Third-world countries will be the ones left behind as they lack the infrastructure necessary to make CBDCs a reality. How fast will it take for the whole world to switch to CBDCs is beyond me. Time is moving fast during the COVID-19 pandemic, but there's no indication of a CBDC launching soon.

I wonder how long will it take for CBDCs to become a reality? Will it be decades or centuries from now? Do you think it's still too early for CBDCs to come into fruition? If not, why? What may be the cause for delaying the launch of the new digital Fiat system? Your input will be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Smiley
CDBC will take a long long time to become a reality, first implementation would be just backend, like you won't be able to use CDBC but the banks will exchange their money in form of blockchain and slowly it will be brought to retail customers, but don't expect paper notes to be eliminated anytime soon, I think they will float around together with CDBC for sometime, also CDBC unlike the expectations of most of the people aren't going to be so transparent and decentralized, the Supply could still be controlled by government.
Its simply a digital fiat nothingless and i dont really see for fiat to be replaced anytime soon no matter what because as long government do exist then expect that fiat would remain forever.

For sure these CBDC's would be centralized which is really total opposite on decentralized crypto projects and actually there are already some had made their own

but whats the difference? Nothing right?
2792  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why the martingale system sucks! (doubling down on losses) on: July 09, 2021, 11:58:33 PM
If this is 100% correct, then why it's still a very popular method, and why gamblers still want to experiment with this. We all use this method, right? Based on my personal experience, there are times that it's working, but most of the time it's not, so I must say you need good timing to make this method effective, otherwise, you'll easily lose your entire bankroll.

This method never works. The fact that you do not lose everything at once does not mean that this method "temporarily" works.
The easiest way to test such strategies is to wait for the deposit to double. If you regularly lose your deposit before doubling it using this strategy, then it does not work.  Believe me, doubling your deposit using Martingale is almost impossible.
That's the reality that it never works. We may see some temporary wins but if you will keep on going, you'll be ending up losing those wins too.
I agree. You'll lose your entire balance before you'd be seeing your money getting doubled through this strategy.
Getting doubled is already a challenge for martingale  strategy and this is the time that you should really know on when to take profits and call it a day but since gamblers are typically
greedy then you would expect that they would really be continuing until they do bust out their entire balance.Surprising thing? no its not.
Martingale doesnt suck if you do just know as a player or user on when to get or secure profits and when to move on and dont add up more when you do lost.
2793  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Why can a piece of news from the Chinese government affect the price of Bitcoin? on: July 09, 2021, 10:59:46 PM
Such news as Cracking down on miners is not palatable. Maybe because you don't have idea of the influence of Chinese to bitcoin mining. According to statista, 65% of the world mining hashrate is from China. There have been numerous news that Chinese government is cracking down on miner, if the hashrate drop, rate at which transaction get confirmed also drops. Such news is not pleasant to here
^ Definitely right, because in China, there are large companies of BTC mining. That is not all about the news that affects BTC price, it is the action on China that makes BTC price shaken and also reduce because of the result in banning BTC miners which is hash rate drop that could have an effect.
However, with or without China, BTC will always grow its price and we don't care if China were banned BTC, later soon BTC's price will go up and recover. Nevertheless, there are some people there in China who still have BTC holding even it is banned.
Could be shaken off but doesnt mean that it would be over.These kind of events does really give out some impact but eventually it would be resolved or recover later on.
So no matter what are the events and fuds that China do made off then it isnt really a solid indication that this market will fall down into the floor.They are really good on making out
decisions that do mostly affect negatively the market but we arent blind when in talks about recovery.

I don't know where it's started that these theories have circulated on the web and putting fear on those curious folks that have also searched for the same conspricies. Well, you get a vaccine and you get a chance with the lottery only if you're in Poland and other countries that have this promo.  Grin

Honestly, not very much different from all the crypto conspiracy theories being pushed around. Yes, this is a trial drug for the most, yes, there isn't enough clinical trial, yes, a lot of stuff but also yes, survival rates are higher if you have the vaccine and this disease is bad enough that we should take the risk to ourselves, to protect others.

Anyway, let's see who wins the Poland lottery then.
I dont really mind about on whose the winner of that Lottery because you dont even know if those draws are transparent or not which you cant assure if its fair at all in the first place and if yes
then im not really that much interested on that one and do acts out like a normal day lottery which not really that much getting some interest.

Mentioning about trial drug then is true and its up to someone if they do let themselves  to be test subjects and i cant blame out some people to be that paranoid on not taking
it because of those known issues or rumors about side effects.

It is normal but important thing that death rate isnt high.
2795  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is Binance Smart Chain the "New Ethereum"? on: July 09, 2021, 08:41:20 PM
Ever since the "De-Fi" craze began on 2020, Binance Coin has been on a constant uptrend in price. It went all the way from nearly $20 to just $500 in a matter of months. Binance has done a good job in promoting its own currency, resulting in massive adoption in the mainstream world. The world's largest crypto exchange owns "CoinMarketCap" so it has all the tools to make BNB a huge success. With near-zero fees and near-instant transaction confirmation times, Binance Smart Chain (which powers BNB) could become the "next Ethereum" in the crypto/blockchain space. Vitalik and his team better hurry up on scaling Ethereum before it's too late. With how fast BNB has grown lately, it could flip ETH sometime in the future.

What do you think? Is Binance Smart Chain the "New Ethereum"? Or is it too early to tell? Do you think it will replace Ethereum sometime in the future? Are current prices sustainable in the long run? Your input will be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much Smiley

i also think Bsc will replace ethereum in the future if ethereum does not recover high transaction fees till now. then the role of ethereum will be replaced by bsc which has very low transaction fees. because traders will look for platforms that have low transaction fees to be able to make transactions.
Not wont really be that easy for BSC but only this project or coin i do see that has potential on soaring up that high in the future considering into its utility the the number of projects are starting to bloom out then

it would have that possible chance but it wouldnt be that easy.Trying to compare about numbers then imagine on how many projects that do attached with Smart contracts?

This is something that cant be just taken down into the ranking on the entire market but who knows on future years to come.

2798  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What does it take for a game to "hook" people on: July 08, 2021, 11:14:10 PM
I am asking this because I do have some short of an answer for videogames and for massive multiplayer games and even for social network oriented games. Videogames require a great design, good difficulty grading, an story that engages the user, massive multiplayer and network oriented are a lot about the interactions and how varied and fun these are. However, for casino games, it would seem that these factors are not really the most important ones. You can see games with very basic graphics and design, simple in the options for the player and not that engaging yet they do "hook" people in them.
What do these games have to have for you?
They don't get hooked to the games. They get hooked to gambling. They will get more hooked when they see that they are able to win a lot. This means, you need to have good payouts and odds for keeping people interested in your casino. Maybe lower the house edge will want people to keep on playing on your casino. Good music, design and animation might also get people hooked in those games.
One of common thing on why people do stick out? Aside with those things you do mentioned is on when people do make out some first bets and turns out to be a win
then would automatically creates some positive impression on where they do believe that this site might be lucky for them to play and in result this would really make
the user to go back and would try the same bets again until they do experience out different outcomes and leaving out on the platform will really just
vary because some do turn back and some would be deciding to stay on.
2799  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Should I get a loan? on: July 08, 2021, 09:45:14 PM
Since the investment is considerable, why choose a loan? If you don't have extra funds, I suggest not to take a loan, but to invest according to your own personal ability. In addition, although altcoins are sometimes profitable, they are also risky. If it were me, I would not choose to use my family's money to gamble, I would try my best.
There's always greed seeing the market on a red charts before and if did loan some funds, for sure he already make profit right now as the market recovers.

If you are going to loan for investment purposes or for trading and you know that you can get that money back in time, then there's nothing wrong about it just don't ask for a loan that you can't afford to pay especially if you lose that money in trading. There's always a risk, but if you personally see an opportunity to buy at a cheaper price, then I think its worth the risk.
But getting that money in time cant be determined because we dont know on when it would pump out so when you do took a loan then you shouldnt rely on the profits you can possibly made with crypto.

It is not really that worth the risk if you do ask me, it is much better if you do make out investment on not a loaned money because you cant be sure if you can repay it on time

but if you do have other source of income that can compensate with that then its up to you.
