281  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When is best for a player to draw the line? on: March 14, 2024, 05:50:58 PM
Just for discussions and ways to educate or share knowledge with ourselves when and how to draw the line when gambling,  because for some reasons, some gamblers have arrived at unstable realities because of the lack of stoppage time while gambling so let's talk.
When do you stop?
Some stop gambling immediately the record a big lose, while others continues when they lose with hope of recovering.
Some other gamblers stop playing when the win they first few games, while other continue to chase the loses, and technically ww can tell in accuracy when this things happens, but when is the best time to stop gambling and take a break?

1-when you lose?
2- when you win?
I would say that neither of these applies to me. I won't be making hasty decisions to any direction because of something that just happened to me. Because i stick to my personal rules for my gambling, i couldn't even do that.

Instead have a plan beforehand and tie it with your budget, so it won't be the issue with losing or winning streak. I stop gambling if i have topped my weekly budget. That's it. I don't need a rule for taking winnings out at some point or anything like that, because it's all play money until i cash out, and it's all bonus if i don't lose my weekly budget. I can only lose 100% of my weekly budget but the sky is the limit with winnings. And usually i withdraw if i won jackpot or something, but i don't have any limits on how much i can win before cashing out.

Friends now the season 1 Airdrop tokens can be claimed on your account dashboard SHFL tokens will be unlocked with 20% as we know before.

These tokens have been traded on Uniswap's DEX exchange at a current price of $0.53 - you can stake these SHFL coins or sell them for a profit. Grin
-cut-
With that token price and circulating supply of ~67.2M tokens it has a marketcap of $35.6M which wasn't much even during bear market, not to mention this market or where it's going now.

And that max supply / issuance rate?


In a year, the "token supply" which i think means just issued tokens looks to be roughly 350M, which with price of $0.53 would mean $185.5M marketcap, that's half of rollbit's current marketcap and we are then way deeper in the bullmarket. This doesn't look like it includes any estimation about burned tokens, so i think i can safely assume that circulated tokens will be far from 350M.

As markets are stupid and probably will look only at max supply and marketcap being overvalued, so who knows if there's demand from public any time soon. but what i know that with low price shuffle affords to buy & burn more of them weekly so i see this as an investment opportunity for sure. And max supply number should be decreasing weekly. Although i am not sure if coinmarketcap updates it or how often.
283  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ETH, SOL or other... Who will be the protagonist of this cycle? on: March 14, 2024, 03:22:12 PM
Which assets would you bet on to be the winner of this click (which will rise the most)?

Which memecoins do you think has the potential to stand out among them all? Doge, Floki, pepe and etc?

I will also include AI and gamefy
Cryptocurrency scene in whole is too ashamed to admit in public if that next protagonist turns out to be meme token. Even though nothing would be funnier and surreal. Because try explaining to your friends why is that happening and why crypto is the future. I would like to be fly in the wall in that conversation Cheesy.

But for now sure looks like a fight between ETH and SOL now and tokens on them. ETH is a winner imho, but i have a strong feeling that SOL will have more notable moonshots with some tokens in it so it will get attention, lots of speculative investors media and shillers. There will be chains like AVAX and ADA that will be most likely profitable for some developers to build on ad they get backing from their community, but i don't see them being getting attention that any decent projects get on SOL or ETH.

What ever the winner is, it will bring a lot of projects with it, as total marketcap of combined altcoin marketcap probably beats even wildest expecations.
284  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Forget Bitcoin - Memecoins Like Pepe, FLOKI and Bonk Are the Big Gainers Now on: March 14, 2024, 02:54:21 PM
I think those 3 meme coins are not new in the market anymore but the only question is if long they can stay?
If there is any meme coin that will last longer, that might only be Dogecoin, nothing more. There is no coin that can maintain their value or growth because each has what we called as volatility.

There are stable coins but even them do also fluctuate in value. They can recover but non-stable coins recovery will depend on how much their latest ATH are. Meme coins are not the future but it was the title of Bitcoin, (the future of money). Before NFT, we already have meme coins but their trend have only came back for a couple of times now.
Dogecoin had volatile past as well, and has some occasional huge spikes. Dogecoin is like Bitcoin of memecoins, being a first with an exemption of not being developed since.

And yeah, we had memecoins that have died, but so we have altcoins that have died, NFTs that have died but some have survived this bear / all bears runs. And with every bull market there comes more new tokens and coins into this play and many of them have survived. Many of them seem dead in comparison to top 10 marketcap coins even though they might already have huge gains and bigger marketcap compared to last bullrun.

OP:s post is provocative, but i've been in this space for so long that i can't help but smiling, when ever i see people losing their minds over meme coins and NFTs are making more gains then bags they hold. Saying things like "this is the reason crypto is not being taken seriously". If you really believed on your own crypto you wouldn't mind people playing with theirs. I don't get why people are collecting physical trading cards or trading them either, or using money to level up in mobile games, but i don't call them stupid for doing so. It's their money.

There will be just more meme tokens then ever, and most of them die for sure, but that's just casino economy. We don't need to understand it for it to keep happening. Most people don't understand basic any other economic systems either. You can think meme tokens as surrealism in economics.
285  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Officially sweden joins NATO on: March 14, 2024, 02:31:37 PM
I’m not updated anymore on how big the NATO is but I'm still skeptical on what’s the essence of expanding their territory if the result of this is a sure large scale war in the future. Why countries in EU needs to create a faction that dedicated to fight each other while they can always cooperate to prosper together rather than fighting to each other.

Only government is the one who wants more power while the citizens wants only a peaceful life.

NATO should accept Ukraine application and help to stop war instead of accepting country near the border since it will just provoke Russia to continue the aggression due to the expansion of NATO.
Here's a quick update in a pic (highlighted countries are in NATO now)

(click image for larger view)
NATO accepting Ukraine directly is way riskier move then accepting other countries that have border with Russia. Because if Russia wouldn't back off or at least stop their actions right after that, it would be in direct open war with US and Europe.

And while accepting countries that have a border with Russia might seem like a provocation, it's about de-escalation. Without joining to NATO other border countries would be next. Because after invading country of 41 million citizens, would an idea of attacking Finland that has population of 5.5 million seem impossible for them? Even though Finland has build their and securing their supply chain since last war with USSR and has comprehensive conscription service.

I’m just saying that Ukraine have balls to defy Russia and go to war against Russia because they are confident that NATO will back them once this huge scale war happened.

Russia view NATO as threat to their goal as you said already that they want to reclaim the old USSR, They are just expanding until they both hit another country like Ukraine that both Russia and NATO have an interest for expansion. This is what I don’t understand on this expansion. Does their resources is already not enough to sustain their own citizen?
They get those resources by invading. But Russian's have also lived numerous generations under dictatorship, oppression and corruption. So Russian citizens have different expectations about their governments sustaining them. Tolerance level of citizens is seemingly quite high when government has total power to jail & kill opposition and when citizens kept under misinformation.

But you shouldn't really even compare NATO and Russia expanding themselves. Russia is expanding by invading countries that don't want in. And raping and killing kids while doing that and submitting those invaded under a dictatorship.
286  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Thorchain (RUNE) is soon obsolete, here's why. on: March 13, 2024, 05:26:21 PM
Hydranet is closed source to prevent thieves from copying code which took YEARS to build, makes perfect sense, besides their web-wallet/web-dex is browser based, similar to Metamask, so it's a completely plug'n play solution.

Also, once the masses finds that you can trade at 1% of the regular fees, people will obviously use the cheaper, AND faster alternative, so there's a good reason this project will be in direct competition to Uniswap. Wink

When you can trade Bitcoin for Ethereum at close to 5-10 cents, instead of like $10, it gets interesting, and opens a lot of doors for trading, in a trustless evironment. It doesn't take a math genius to see the MASSIVE upside potential here.
Like i already said, you can't compare the fees when other one has fraction of the users, so your math doesn't apply in any way.

And you are using the oldest excuse. Best platforms in crypto will stay open source, because that's how any potential exploits get spotted and fixed faster. Some cryptocurrency developers are putting millions of dollars and countless hours in open source development, not just for their financial gains but to develop this field for everyone. This place ain't about patented software that you can build around to centralize everything.

Also metamask didn't need to have a token nor a blockchain when they were building it. It's a third party software for blockchains that already exist.
287  Economy / Gambling / Re: 🎲BetFury.io| 🃏New Original Game - Blackjack | 💸Play & Win crypto on: March 13, 2024, 04:35:20 PM
Finally currency swaps have arrived.

It's great that the Betfury team has added crypto swaps within its platform, but the rules that a user must accept to use this feature raise some concerns. What do you think of this paragraph of the rules? It would be nothing if the Betfury site was not periodically subjected to DDoS attacks.
Quote
BetFury does not bear any responsibility in the case of loss of funds, which occurred because of illegal actions of third parties, in particular, but not exclusively in the case of hacker attacks, DDOS attacks, and other actions of third parties, which are aimed at acquiring funds.

Not defending Betfury at all, but i don't think i have seen any ToS:es in casinos, that aren't full of legal disclaimers made purely from the point of casino's interest.

But i think this is all just for scaring customers to back off in case anyone was thinking of suing them. As it's really hard to believe that this kind of contract would actually hold if they went to court, no matter if customers have signed it. Because ToS just doesn't override any legal obligations to protect customer funds that casinos have as financial institutions. When ToS is clearly made for clashing with consumer protection laws it wasn't a legal contract to begin with.

In comparison, you could sign a contract with some company where's a line that says they have a right to burn down your house down at any point without any legal repercussions from that, but that wouldn't hold in any court either.
288  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Support, do not criticize. on: March 11, 2024, 05:58:44 PM
I don't understand the point at all in criticizing a person if they are trying to get rid of any addiction. In fact, it doesn't really matter how many times he or she relapses before he or she completely gets rid of his or her addiction. The only thing that matters is to achieve the result, even if the path to it will not be the easiest. In my opinion, support is something that we should provide to our loved ones, no matter if they are struggling with an addiction, gaining experience in something or just want to become a better person.
If they indeed are trying to get rid of it, they need more compassion, and people who listen. But if they try to justify their actions by reasoning with illogical arguments to keep their addiction alive, i would say confrontation and critisizm are in order. Because there's a change that addicts surround themselves with yes men, and that nothing is their fault, and that they are fine as they are, then they don't need to change. Because in that way they don't have ever face the facts. They are loved as they are. No work required.

Wanting to change needs to come from inside, but what i mean with that is that i don't think any need for change would happen without clashing with real world and real people. Sometimes people need to face reality, and that can come in form of confrontation. To hear that they hurt others, to realize they need to change. Beacuse if all they get is endless accepting and no criticizim, that won't cut it for some people. As some of us can just use people as endless cargabe cans to pour their problems on. That kind of abuse happens as well, especially if addict is feeling so bad, that they don't have enough energy for empathy to see friends as humans. Then they become somekind of psychology relief machines to tell all their endless problems to. That gives them fast relief wihout needing to do any emotional heavy lifting for on themselves

So some people need to hear critizism too. Not just acceptance. It's like with our own kids when they have done something bad. We can love them as they are, even though we don't accept their actions.
289  Economy / Gambling / Re: Can gambling sites provide proof of auditing that was done on their RTP? on: March 11, 2024, 05:05:36 PM
I will say with all honesty that this is really an interesting question, as personally, I've never for once thought about the possibility and importance of auditing a game software to ensure that it's up to the standard the casino are advertising the game to be.
But unfortunately, this is not a question gamblers can answer, just as money here have said, there is no way we can know if online casinos actually go through such audit on their games software before launching such game to the public, because so far, no online casino have ever spoken concerning this, neither has any ever made such data available to their customers and prospective customers as well.

This is something I will suggest we all return back to our favorite casinos and ask them if their game software are audited, as a way to prove that the games are as fair as they should be, and just as they claim, casinos that refuse to answer or provide the audit data possibly have something they are hiding.
We know they do that that because they are required to have auditing from third party auditors by law. It's happening frequently and constantly because one test doesn't cut it.
And i wonder what kind of proof is OP looking for. Pure data about testing or what? I am sure most people wouldn't even make sense any data analysis of an auditor. But anyone can probably ask if those auditors have time to answer questions, or about their methods.

Quote from: Pragmatic play's home page as an example:
Pragmatic Play’s games are regularly reviewed by independent bodies that are formally accredited to ensure both randomness and fairness. As such, our games are Random Number Generator tested and certified by Gaming Laboratories International, Quinel and Gaming Associates this is also a prerequisite for all markets in which we operate.

Imagine risking a billion dollar industry by using fake audits. There's no reasonable explanation for that, especially when the biggest asset of any casino is trustworthiness and transparency.
Mathematical proof of slight house edge is the only thing they need to profit.
290  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Eurovision 2024 bets on: March 11, 2024, 04:41:05 PM

Though, Israel actually has confirmed their participation and released their song already, it's called "Hurricane" by Eden Golan. Maybe the betting odds haven't been updated yet to reflect that.
I see that this new song was released only a few hours ago on Eurovision's official YouTube account. It's interesting that Israel had an entire back up song and music video in production after their "October Rain" debacle. Also interesting how the European Broadcasting Union didn'g outright disqualify it and let them in with a different song.

As a song it's a more fitting song for Eurovision. But 17.00 is good enough based on how many Eurovision fans have come out against the contest based on the fact that Israel is participating. Certainly though on the opposite side of it there's gonna be people strategically maxing their votes in favor of Israel. I'd argue though that songs way down the list have better production. So it'll be interesting now to see if Israel moves further up or down the list after the change in songs.
Israel didn't have backup, they just changed the name and the lyrics. Now, according to the rules, it's not political anymore and they can use it. That is if the band doesn't pull any stunts on the middle of the act and won't get disqualifed after all. But i doubt band would do that. There's huge money involved if they would do well.

But i highly doubt they will do well. And i am seriously wondering why they have such high odds, even though they have done well in the past, many people are protesting it, and while you can't downvote them, i am guessing points will show in jury's decision as well with lack of voters from other countries.

If there would be one country that would be a direct protest vote against israel, i would bet on that. If it was possible, i would also bet on the possibility that they are getting booed live, i would actually bet lot's of my money on that. Eurovision brands itself as apolitical, but that doesn't mean people interacting with it will.
291  Economy / Economics / Re: Btc new oil for USA on: March 11, 2024, 04:22:33 PM
When Big names like blackrock Jump in it's not for fun or small money it's a huge money power and control.
You can sell oil but at some point the crude oil ports and refriment centers will be full.
Btc limited supply and financial freedom can now save the USD since blackrock controlled retirement funds are in europe countries like sweden Norway finland Baltics and many others the blackrock have a lot money to play with.
The btc will be huge no questions that it will make so many people richer.

But we see that blackrock will buy bitcoins and then it will be like new oil you want btc than you need USD first.
Once again anyone who doubted of USA power will be disapointed again becouse when blackrock owns all the btc or most of them since trump is one of the blackrock buddies you connect the dots the USA will be btc cartel you want btc you buy with USD.
Then it comes USDT and usdc into play we could see how USD stablecoins value going up together with btc.

Now we gona just wait to see situation why a lot people start to buy btc probably wars could be one of the reasons Also the currencies collapse against USD.
I don't get why oil analogy would even make sense. Oil isn't really a store of value, it's a source of power. While Bitcoin is a store of value and needs power to be mined. Digital gold is better for comparison.
Also i don't see any evidence that Trump would like bitcoin or endorse bitcoin. If anything he will launch a maga crypto funding platform or something as crappy, with his own blockchain because it's need to be about him. And bitcoin isn't about him.

And about trump: Reason people hoard more bitcoin and gold when there's a change he might be president, is because there's less trust for usd and stability of US government. You know, reason why bitcoin was created in a first place, public's way to transfer wealth without working government. Fiat system might fall, and if it falls, Trump era would be my bet for that one. It's needed when government can't be trusted.
292  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Wise to Cash Out 3.5 ETH For Debt Payments on: March 10, 2024, 11:59:48 PM
Right now the markets are rising in our favours. Too bad the worlds markets are in FIAT.
Right now i wish to pay off some credit card debts i have. All in FIAT of course and yes i know i will have to pay tax on the capital gains.
Would i be making an ok choice to sell off some ETH right now to CAD to pay some debt off. as where markets are im in the position.
just wondering on the tax i have to pay, would i be paying more tax then what i will be writing off in credit card debt? thanks
Only resposible answer anyone could give you is, yes, if you have money to pay your debt, maybe you should do that.
I might not do that though, but i am someone who is risking a lot by not doing that. Also it depends if i had still some in crypto or if i had to cash out everything to pay that debt.
Because if that's just part of your investments, it's a no brainer that you should pay it, i would too.

Also you don't mention if that's only way you can pay your credit card debts, can you sell something else to pay it, or can you save money to pay it? Because i have a feeling that ETH is going way higher later on, so i might leave some eth for that. So ask yourself would it be horrible, if it did go $20k and you didn't hold any eth at the moment? Some of us can watch from sidelines easily without holding crypto and watch it moon. But it can be devastating for some people, so i can't ever recommend selling everything. Always leave at least a small moonbag
293  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: It’s unlikely that anyone besides you will be happy with your winnings. on: March 10, 2024, 11:25:59 PM
I would like to discuss this topic, the joy of victory. Much has been written about this, but nevertheless it will always be relevant. Many players naively believe that someone other than themselves should be happy about their winnings. I don't think so. Of course, those closest to you who directly or indirectly depend on your money will be happy about your winnings. But neighbors, friends, work colleagues, at best (at best!) will receive the news of your victories with indifference, and at worst, with envy. I know that many friends and acquaintances get depressed when they find out how much you have earned. For them, it will be an unnecessary reminder of their failure. Often friendships end after one person becomes very rich. People lose common topics for communication, common interests disappear. Of course, things are different in sports betting and trading than in business. Here success is less stable and a person can often fall back into poverty more quickly. But it’s still better to hide your victories from others. I've seen many clear examples.
I don't know where you even got the idea they ever would be happy for you in the first place? Especially if you get rich by winning? This is why people advice you to not ever tell anyone if you won the lottery, or what ever you won. And biggest reason for not telling is: No one needs to know. You might want to tell people, but ask yourself why you even want that.

People will envy you, that's right. One proof of that is this myth that keeps on living, that most lottery winners end up being broke and miserable in the end. There are no stats that would back this up, and while some people might mess their lives by drinking etc, not everyone obviously will do that. Those negative stories keep living though, because people love to read about them. They are kind on confirmation bias, as majority wants lottery winners to suffer, they see those stories as comforting because they aren't ever goingt to win.

But people around you can be very envious, not everyone but enough of them are a good reason not to tell around about your money. Especially when they think you didn't "earn" the money, but only were lucky. You see this envy with people's attitude towards crypto rich as well. Actually even more with those.

Some of your friends will avoid you. Some because of envy, some because they are extra careful and don't want you think that they are only with you because of money. For some reason people don't seem to do that when you have earned your money slowly with work. At least none of the rich that i know (i know few people that got rich and one of them quickly with cryptos).

And i don't know what common topics and common interests are you talking about, but i never lost them with my friends. All being rich brought to them was financial security and peace of mind because they don't need to live from hand to mouth anymore. And few other obvious perks as well.

Do you see them as pretenders or just trying to hide their image?
👉how do you view notorious gamblers: I've been around some bet shop and have seen people watse more than a months salary on virtual or very huge amounts and woudl be sweating out of lose and have no choice but to chase their loses and end up losing even more. Do you view this persons as irresponsible to their family and themselves? Or do you pity them as victims of gambling habit as it can happen to even the most righteous person?

👉how do you feel when peopel ask you for money to gamble?, do you gamble with debt?  Or would you never indulge in such no matter how sure you are about the game ?
👉Do you set rules or limits on how much you stake per week to control your addiction or you are disciplinedenough to know when to stop?
👉behind the mask of loving to gamble if you get rich would you still gamble or never again?
1. I don't know what you mean by bet stores as we don't have those, almost every store is a bet store here. But i think we have around 50/50 ratio on women and men gambling. In fact in physical slot machines they are majority and i know personally couple older women who play way more then i do online.
2. I feel sorry for them as addiction is a real problem. Big part of the winnings in my country are directed to help gambling victims. Which some people in here see hypocritical, but i rather see them do that then not. Other way would be just ban gambling and i don't think it's ever going to happen in here. Those people, who want to do that wouldn't get voted in the government-
3. It doesn't feel good to lose, but it's part of the fun not to win all the time.
4. I am using winnings for either investing or living and buying something cool for my kids and my girlfriend
5. I am NOT lending anyone money for gambling, and i prefer people wouldn't lend me money for that if i would ask. That's really horrible idea, both lending and asking. Maybe my friends are smart enough so they haven't even asked.
6. I am watching my budget closely and never go over it. It's my rule nr 1 in gambling. Because i know my gambling addiction kicks in if i ever cross it. That's just how addiction works. It needs absolute rules to keep in check. For some people it could mean never gambling ever, and i totally understand why. Everyone has their own ways to not to get in trouble.
7. I have thought about this. I might quit for a while and have a vacation. At least i wouldn't be gambling anything that takes a lot of my time. As time is money and that's what i am buying with my money.
295  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why do you still Invest in the potential heartbreakingly AltCoins? on: March 10, 2024, 10:24:45 PM
AltCoin doesn't sound reputable and reliable because it is like the jungle requiring only the fittest to survive and you must be smart, vigilant and awake in the market if you must not be left heartbroken with its flexibility potnetials to lost of asset funds.
We all knows about this so tell us, why do you still take that risk of investing in AltCoins?
With your knowledges about AltCoins can you afford to advise anyone to stil invest there in AltCoins even with the tussles?
Why? Because there's a higher growth potential with smaller marketcaps and smaller marketcaps tend to be more volatile, so higher gains can be achieved in shorter time frame. And it's not like all altcoins are the same.

It's like asking "Why are you buying these other stocks? Why aren't you buying only microsoft stocks when it has the highest marketcap?" Maybe people see better future or short time future with other coins.

Some of the young people are only in this for meme value, buying meme coins because why not? Bitcoin was the outsider fringe money against the suits for a long time. Now when suits are buying it, it's the meme tokens that are money against the suit. Obviously suits don't want it or buy it, because they think it's dumb and that's the point. They also thought bitcoin was stupid and a scam at some point. Some still do.

And don't pretend bitcoin doesn't have any risk. Richer you got with it, higher risk you took. And early in bitcoin, risk was insanely high. Why people didn't buy microsoft or apple then? Why they risked it and bought btc?
296  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Create a player list of rights on: March 10, 2024, 06:31:05 PM
Based on this post and the two responses, I realized another opportunity to actually contribute to the community, and not just my buddies.  Wink   A group of players should get together to create a list of "rights" they demand, and issue a certification for those casinos that agree to follow them.   Eventually, hopefully, increased success of those sites displaying the certification would lead to others sites following.

Obviously, a right cannot be something that harms the site, such as "A player wins if ..." but instead something like "The site lists every condition that would enable them to freeze or seize assets as part of the registration and/or deposit process." 

Such a list of rights would not harm the legit sites in any way.   Who wants to champion this?
I totally agree it's worrying that people are giving away of their consumer rights, by accepting many of these ToS:es. But i can't find any reason why any casino would agreeing on doing anything like this.

Because building that kind of list of reasons would need to be bullet proof, and wording would have to be very careful, so that it leaves to space for interpretation. And if someone found a loophole from that list of reasons (that would be probably long as bible), are we saying that casino couldn't freeze the account and that user could just lawfully keep abusing the casino until they accept the new rules?

Even laws gets fixed all the time because people keep finding new loopholes, so it would definitely happen with a list that promises to cover every specific reason for freezing an account.
So as that list would keep constantly changing to fix and prevent exploits, we would need to keep researching it every day what's been updated and accept that.

I am not trying to be difficult here, i am just thnking this from the point of a casino lawyer. Maybe i am overthinking this but i am sure there must be some other way to deal with this.

After all they're not threatening to start ''special military operation'' against them. I guess this only shows that this invasion isn't about NATO expansion to East like they're saying.
That special military "operation" was just a matter of time. That's why we (Finland) joined. They have also violated our airspace with freaking fighter jets when ever they had to show a power move. Because they knew we wouldn't respond too harshly as we wouldn't like to rock the boat. They have used paid agitators and russian troll factory on our finnish forums and but they are pretty easy to spot, as finnish is one of the hardest language to master, and non-Finn pretending to be native Finns make make errors constantly by using translators and pushing Kremilin's propaganda. It sticks out.

Before we joined, Russia stated that it would mean serious militaristic and political consequences against Finland. But before it our airspace was constantly violated by Russian Jets as a power move as they knew we wouldn't want to rock the boat by responding too harshly. And here's Dmitry Medvedev mentioning finland and threating with nuclear missiles because of nato.

We follow closely to Russian media and are aware of their blatant lies and how they have been now building an image of Finland as an enemy. They have even changed their school textbooks to rewrite Russian history that fits to that. They have also lately been removing Finnish soldier's graves in and memorial plaques Russia.

And needles to say we don't have any diplomatic relations with them as Russia has declared Finland as unfriendly country.

Let me know if you find any crypto bookies accepting Eurovision bets!

There are many reputable online sportsbooks that do. Actually, almost all of them.

You can find Eurovision betting odds on popular platform BC.Game here:
Code:
https://bc.game/sports?bt-path=%2Fspecials-18

And there are of course others, such as BK8, Cloudbet, Duelbits, FortuneJack, Sportsbet, Stake...
So is anyone going to vote those non-favourites? I just reclaimed my JUN airdrop, so i am cashing that and wagering it for Finland.
Finland had 67x multiplier in bc.game (biggest one i've seen), so i wanted to try there. But since i didn't recall if i had registered yet, i tried to search all my emails from "bd.game", and nothing came up.

So i made an account there, and while i looked around before depositing, i spinned that flashy wheel with those free JB tokens as a bet. There came a popup screen saying that i wasn't eligible for the prize as someone has already registered an account from my ip or my computer. Now i am afraid to use that site anymore, because it will probably look like double accounting on purpose.

Stake had just 66x multiplier, so that's gonna do fine. But i would like to see odds for other crypto casinos for comparison and i didn't find eurovision from others you listed, even with google. Maybe you can give direct links?

Me and my mates have created another stoopid meme token but I don't want to create a post in the announcement board unless people actually like the idea so would like for some sincere opinions

Yes I know the world doesn't need more memecoins lol
Seems like such a stupid idea it could be a winner, except with your attitude you aren't going anywhere. If you just want attention for free and without risk, this isn't happening.

If you need a permission from random people before you do what you genuinely think could be fun, you are missing the point. People win in this space because they take risks. This isn't a tv and there are no test audiences to pander.

Don't be afraid to flop, because that's most likely what's going to happen anyway. It doesn't matter what people say in here. It will probably flop no matter how many of them are in board, or how many say that they are not. Only way to guarantee to lose is not to try.

Imagine wanting to do stand-up comedy, but refusing to go on the stage before everyone is cheering. This is what your post looks like to me. Just do it, don't ask permission or acceptance. The whole point of this token creation is that you don't need to.

Hydranet could potential be a competitor to Uniswap, which if Hydranet reaches the same marketcap, it will be worth $70+/token. (And it's currently trading at 6!!!! cents).
-cut-
Hydranet is interesting, i have to admit, and with $10M marketcap it seems cheap as hell.

But competition for uniswap? Let's be realistic. You can't even start to compare fees when Hydranet has fraction of the volume of rune or uniswap, that seems like you are misleading newbs purposely.

And please tell me this is actually open source but i can't just find the code, because downloading closed source software for something this is just stupid.

And while $10M marketcap means there are lots of space to grow, it needs more then smoke and mirrors to rise and compete with big boys. And with all those cross-chain bridge attacks and stolen money last year, this or any other cross-chain tech doesn't seem like sure bet to me. It's going to be an important development sector, but i rather keep using CEXes and traditional DEXes for the time being.
