It is not very consuming to be honest and it does really worth what you pay as an electricity bill you are getting the benefits like being independent from third-party servers to validate your transaction details and you can hide your IP too by running via TOR.

But there are no financial benefits like miners while running a node.

There are gamblers who are not addicted to gambling or atleast they are aware of their limits.

And this thread is only about the addicted ones who get themselves caught in difficult situation which does reflect on their family too , wife/husband, parents and sometimes siblings too depends on the age category.

It's hard but that's the truth so everyone who wants to get short term pleasure should be cautious while approaching or else they could be lead to loss of their joy in their life.

Sorry to derail this thread...

But you haven't kicked out of exchanges because of you gambled with it since there is no way of finding them the rewards are coming from your deposits or rewards of a won bet but it's just due to their policy that prohibits accepting deposits from casino as a preventive measure for money laundering which I don't know how effective in stopping the launders but it's existing policy so you should not experiment against it.

Unstoppable wallet is one of the open sourced multi crypto wallet that supports top altcoins which you can try as well.

Nope. A block is set of transactions that is included by the miners which meets their criteria generally the transactions with higher fees.

For example the block 833067 included 2925 TXs



In the above picture you can see how much the miners made which is fees + block reward.

That's only possible when you perform Full RBF it allows the user to change any aspect of the transaction and thus include output addresses too but I am not aware of any wallet that has a built in feature to do that, we have to manually sign in the transaction and then broadcast it but with the conventional RBF aka the RBF we see in wallets like electrum where we can only increase the fees and it doesn't allow changing the output address but if we opt out the cancel (double spending) we can change the output address while paying a higher fee than the original transaction.

It's good to see that Lightlord is responding to the people queries.

As far as I know, most exchanges prohibits deposits from casino accounts for due to AML regulations so no matter it's BTC or LTC just don't send from casino to exchange account and it may end up terminating your exchange account with all the balance on hold or possible to withdraw depends on the exchange's policy.

Pattern, particular game or particular casino giving profits is superstitious not really a strategy because theoretically you can't keep winning the bets no matter what unless you found technical glitch and decided to exploit it but due to the better security of modern era casinos those glitches doesn't last very long and even all the bets using that technical issue will be voided and cancel any rewards made from it.

RBF or CPFP doesn't allow the output address to be changed so it's not going to be useful for OP. As suggested importing the wallet to Electrum and see if the coins are available for spending, most likely yes considering the fee used is well within the purging limit and 2 month is very long time for any nodes to keep the transactions unless the wallet provider does keep rebroadcasting the transaction again and again until it confirms.

Bitcoin transactions are irreversible, once the transaction is confirmed.

You will be happy if the things as you expected so the important thing to remember here is you didn't lose anything that should keep you happy for now. And better not to look at the results of the games you decided to avoid such regrets or if you just want to go by your instincts then what really made you to cash out in the 83rd minute?

You can't live life with ifs and buts so don't make it as habit of blaming yourself when you can't do anything to change what already happened.

Electrum 2FA is nothing but 2 of 3 multi-sig wallets while one of the co-signers will be provided by a third-party company called trusted coin and you need to pay more to avail of their service. So if you just wants a multi-signature wallet and aren't interested in trusting a third party then simply go for a multi-signature wallet instead of 2FA.

You can't convert multi sig wallet into a single sig wallet so you need to have each of its own kind f you want different types. But for cold storage multi sig is highly recommended.

Luck is something beyond our imagination, we can assume that particular game or set of games we are losing other than that everything is going fine but luck doesn't work like that, it can change all of a sudden and you could win 100K lottery with $2 dollar ticket and that too happens even if you didn't expect to win at all. What we can do is to limit out betting money under our control and don't get tempted when someone is winning and you lost it all for that month.

If someone is that much irresponsible to bet the entire savings amount on gambling for whatever reason then I don't think it's acceptable at all and divorce maybe the right decision for our sake. I don't think we need to tolerate that kind of partner for entire life because it will turn into hell of a life in the earth itself. And talking about savings it is always good to save the money individually instead of pooling with your partner but when they are in financial needs for something essential then it's indeed to help.

I can remember two instances.

One with my Electrum wallet that I used for small storage on my Android, I had the backup seeds but somehow I didn't remember where I kept and it came to acknowledge just before factory resetting my Android for spare service like battery or something, luckily that account still logged in and I rewrote the seed words from the app itself.

Another one is related to a shitcoin, the name of the project I can't find and it happened in the ICO era, the $10 worth of tokens went to moon-like 20x or 50x but I was never able to find the seeds and its forever lost.

What comes to my mind after reading this is when people buy wallet.dat file that shows balance but can't able to decrypt it.

Did you really find the file on the old disk as you claim or someone sold that to you?

First of all, why do you need support to run your Bitcoin node?

How to run and operate your own bitcoin node, here is a guide which explains how to run your own node and if someone asking your private keys then they are trying to scam you so don't fall for such silly traps.

If father has any assets in possession and kids inherit then surely lenders will come back at the one who inherited the assets to collect what the father owes and if it's banking loan then it's already regulated and they gave the loan based on some collateral so if the debt hasn't been paid then most likely the assets will be seized.

Other kind of lenders like loan sharks will come at your face and do what needed to be done to get their money at the end of the day loan has to be paid no matter what.

Technically it's double spending the unconfirmed coins to one of our addresses but in Electrum it's terms as Cancel that is somewhat confusing to people who don't know what it actually is cause once the transaction is broadcasted there is no way to cancel the transaction even with zero confirmation, it can be dropped/purged from the network then we can reuse the funds again.

Religiously speaking, gambling is prohibited in every kind of religion that is followed by majority.

Let's talk about the perception, yes people consider who regularly gambles are irresponsible and jobless but do they ever really had thought about how they can afford to gamble if they are not making any money from it? I am not talking about the ones who gamble with others money like from their parents salary and those who does that really deserves that kind of critics and they should not be allowed to continue with such behaviour because they know the importance of money only when they are making it and they will be responsible when it comes to their hard earned money.

So it all depends on the individuals not simply the gambling itself.

If this is happening more often than it's supposed to be then something from the user end is triggering the security protocol of the casino which can be lot of things but basically usage of VPN is one of the most reason why user has to undergo KYC while trying to withdraw. So anyone using casino better not to use VPN or just have a dedicated paid proxy IP if you guys feel privacy is that much important.
