281  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How does affilate programs work in casinos? on: March 28, 2024, 10:07:29 PM
I was wondering how does casino affiliates programs work.

I have a friend who is an affiliate marketer. He does affiliate programs for various sectors. For example in the health sector, finance sector, educational sector and so many. It got me thinking after he tried introducing me into it, he is trying to make me change my mind from gambling in 8 ball pool instead i should use the money to get an online affiliate course.

Am curious right now, to know how does affiliates program work in gambling. I know gambling is big niche and they also run affiliate programs, so anyhow have an idea?

Casinos that allow their members to become an affiliate will simply give you a link. And once someone register under your link and then plays then the casino will give you a certain percentage.

So the more players you bring to that casinos, the more money you will give passively. But it's hard though to sign someone under your referral unless you really know that guy or you yourself is already a established gamblers. And this is also one reason why there are so many gambler streamers right now, so called influencers so that you will sign under them and then they will earn some and then continue with their streams.
282  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How possible is it to win lottery 14 times using mathematics calculations on: March 28, 2024, 09:49:02 PM
If a gambler win this much with mathematical calculations, it is the same thing as saying that the person has broken the code to the algorithm behind the lottery. It is even a big signal if the winnings are consecutive, in that case, the company will either pause to do investigation long before it even get to the 14th win. Lotteries are game of chance and there is no way a player will be so lucky to win several times consecutively so the result of this case will be a complete overhaul of the lottery system

LOL, but it was done before, and only in a month, PCSO list showed one bettor won 20 times in a month —Tulfo.

Quote
Senator Raffy Tulfo on Tuesday disclosed that a bettor's name appeared to have won the lotto 20 times in one month, citing a list submitted by the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO).

But obviously this is rigged though, and we can't really comprehend how one person won a lottery not just once or twice or even fourteen times in his lifetime, but 20 minutes in just one month, how lucky this individual is?  Grin
283  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Navarrete Vs Berinchyk Vacant WBO World Lightweight Title May 18 2024 on: March 28, 2024, 09:20:51 PM


Fight is still far though, we haven't seen the kick off press conference yet, but for sure Navarette is very happy in moving up in weight as he will not have to drain himself again and have that chance to crack for another belt.

That was always the issue when he was in the Featherweight division and surprisingly he still performed better than expected, with Navarrete's frame and builds he can go up further but the higher you go up the more challenging opposition you're going to face.
He is still good in the Lightweight but he will be facing tough opposition trying to unite it, with Tank Davis and Shakur you'll have a very tough challenge ahead.

And the higher you go up, most likely you will lose your power as well, his frame is somewhat in between, but we have seen the he indeed has problems with making 130 lbs. Although he could have clean it up the division at Jr. Lightweight and fought O'Shaquie Foster, the risk is very high for him.

So better move to the new division Lightweight become a champion with his chance here, then maybe fought rank boxers. But it will be very difficult for him as we have Tank and Shakur as well or others as this division is pretty much stack up. However, he was given a chance by the WBO so why not take advantage of that.
284  Other / Off-topic / Re: Who can you trust more to handle your business, man or woman? on: March 27, 2024, 11:25:45 PM
Am sure many arguments have ensued from the disparity in management that both gender, the man and the woman, can bring to the table as regards managing a business to scale heights of progress.
While a man is preferred for some, in order cases, the women are more favorite to handle top management positions due to their multitasking ability or dedication to vision of the company that's unwavering.

* If you intend to start your business or you already do and are looking for the best candidate to fill the top management position, would you trust a man or a woman to handle the affairs of the business?

* What reasons would you suggest are right, for picking and trusting a particular gender to handle a top management position of your business?

Let's discuss!
Have you experienced working in a company? If so, you must have known that the gender has nothing to do with who has the better ability to handle your own business. It is true that women can do multi-tasking, so as the men. A lot of people also often say that what a man does, women can also manage to do the same thing, and vice versa.

So, if I will start my own business, gender will not really matter. As long as that person is capable and has a pleasing personality, that person is fit for the job.

And to add to that, why are we still discussing this? I mean we are in an era that gender is not a thing anymore? Maybe except for countries that are really strict because of their religion. But now, everything is very open now.

So to answer this, doesn't matter, as long as the person can do the job right away, then get that individual.

We shouldn't be gender biased, it has proven already that any sexes right now can do their job more than we expect them to be. And most of them are really that competitive and will go above and beyond their duty to finished the job.

No, we do not have any fees for withdrawing bitcoin and other coins from account to personal wallet.
Not even transaction fees?
If I withdraw 10 mBTC I will receive 10 mBTC in my wallet?

😂😂😂 Lol what a question bud..
Are you high or what?  Grin

Are there any centralized casinos around where it's possible to withdraw crypto currencies without any fees? Just being curious as personally, this is the very first time I see a user ask such a question on this forum.
Sure there is.
Sportsbet, Bitcasino, Livecasino and few other casinos dont charge any fees for withdrawing bitcoin, they dont even charge any transaction fees.
You are active in gambling board so it is very strange for you to ask this question, when we have a whole topic about that since 2021: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5333602.0

LOL, but yeah, specially sportsbet.io one of the biggest sporting platform, didn't charge any withdrawal fees and I think it's one reason why they are still in the game and became well known because of that. I can attest to that as I have been betting for them many years ago without any withdrawal fee.

In any case, it's a good strategy by BITZ.io, obviously, it's to attract a lot of gamblers to get this benefit. Unlike some top tier gambling platforms (won't mentioned the name), but their fees are so high and the reason is that they want the withdrawal to be very fast but customers are the one to shoulder the fees, (not good).
286  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin 190K in 2024? on: March 27, 2024, 10:18:41 PM
Halving is very near and in such short period of time it is not possible to happen for bitcoin to reach from 68k$ to 190k$ but still it is a crypto and market can change anytime. If after effects of halving remains longer and price increase occurs for months then may be price reach to such value till the end of this year.

When bitcoin start to rise then everyone become satisfied because the price does not stop at 73k$ but there is a hope that before halving it will reach to the value higher than 73k$. After every halving the price goes higher but we don't know that what will be the limit if higher worth and will it reach to 100k$ or will down due to large number of selling.

We still have like 8 months to do that, and we have seen that any price is possible for Bitcoin. It might get to $190,000 this year, but this is bull run might be very big. And just like that, we could see that price.

I don't think that we can all be satisfied, it's good, but we all know that at the back of our minds, we want more higher prices. And it's really doable with a market like Bitcoin who works in cycle and now that we are in a bull run, we are looking for at least 6 digits for the first time.
287  Economy / Gambling / Re: Buidling a New Crash Game with Community Experience on: March 27, 2024, 09:42:41 PM
While my loss wasn't huge in the grand scheme of things, it taught me a valuable lesson: I want to create my own fair, reliable, and ultimately the best game ever. Yo, that loss stung, but hey, it ain't the end of the world. Now I'm fired up to build my own game, one that's straight-up fair. Fairness? Check. Trustworthy? Duh. And the user experience? Gonna be smoothest thing this side of butter.

Why I’m writing these words, cause I’m wondering the real bet players thoughts and what is the important for them? In here, I would like buidl with community experience not casino experience.

It's a combination, there are gamblers who look at the design, it must be unique and different user feel. As for the trustworthy and reputation, not going to be easy, competition are tough in gambling and so you really need to look at every questions, doubts and answer it here and satisfy your question. And it might take years to build it. Those casinos right now that is well-known started slow and built their reputation from ground up. At least 4 years as majority of them born out of the pandemic and yet they are still standing.

And you need to hire the right personnel as well, maybe get those who has the experience to be a support staff or be in the fraud department catching cheaters. And your ToS should also be a consideration, as it needs to be clear. License as well is a must, you will be criticize if you don't have one in the beginning.
288  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Beterbiev vs. Bivol - Undisputed Light Heavyweight Championship on: March 27, 2024, 09:15:55 PM
There are reports that David Benavidez pleaded Turki Alalshikh to make the fight between him and Canelo. But Turki says no, however, he said that he can fight the winner of this fight in June.



https://twitter.com/MichaelBensonn/status/1771550634942111745

Well I can't blame Alalshikh, Canelo is clearly doesn't like no part of Benavidez and that's why he is not a fan of it. And for sure Canelo will command big money here, although the Saudis have that kind of money, I don't think though that they'll simply bow down on Canelo here.

So June perhaps, then after that, Bivol and Beterbiev can have their rematch.

What are your thoughts on this proposal?

This will certainly be a checkmate on Canelo from David Benavidez assuming Benavidez will win the light heavyweight championship hehehe. Benavidez knows that Canelo wants a light heavyweight championship before he retires and he also certainly knows that Canelo is avoiding him in the super middleweight division. The solution is to win the unified light heavyweight championships hehehehee. This will be the perfect fight for the both of them because Canelo wants to fight for his legacy and Benavidez wants to fight to become the next big name in the sport of boxing. Also, the purse for each will be very big hehe.

It's already checkmate for him as he is avoiding David Benavidez like a plague. And I don't think that he will go 175 lbs, those 3 are waiting for him. He only went to 175 lbs when it has a weak champion in Kovalev. And he did try to go up again and thought that Bivol is easy.

And now that the Saudi's has spoken up, he will be left in the super middleweight and fighting in the US and he can't get that $100-$200 M that he wants. He might clean up the division though but not fighting David Benavidez will hurt his legacy.
289  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tim Tszyu - Seabastian Fundora For The WBC And WBO Super Welterweight March 30 on: March 26, 2024, 07:30:31 PM
The fun was ruined... I thought Thurman was up and wants to be a champion again but unable to make it for this big fight would say that he is done in boxing. Pacman ruined him and now he is getting older and having a problem in coming back. Honestly, I don't know Tim Tszyu's opponent, I bet he is not popular, so this could be another fight cherry pick by his camp for a sure win.

That's what everyone believed, so I agree, Manny Pacquiao has ruined Keith Thurman. Although there are pictures of him having a shoulder support or something. He is a rank boxer, Fundora has a fight with someone as the undercard.

And it's also for the interim belt and so this fight will be for the WBO and WBC belt now. Fundora is very tall but I think that is the only advantage he has. Tszyu is the well rounded of the two and he has the tools to score a knockout victory here.
290  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling until you go totally broke on: March 24, 2024, 12:27:08 AM
I am just wondering if anyone here have ever been in a similar situation before? That is, gambling until you are completely broke with nothing to fall back on?
No money in the bank, no cash in the hand, what did you do?

Or maybe gambled until you are one bet away from going broke (if you lose), do you go ahead and risk the money, or cancel the bet and  keep that money for something more important?

It all goes down to the emotions the psychology. It seems that his decision is clouded already and and so his reaction is not normal. And it just beg us to question how can gambling do this to anyone here amongst us?

And there are no definite answers to be honest. We say that we should control our emotions, but how many times, including myself, has spend life savings to gambling because we wanted to get back and chase that lose?
291  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: PARKER VS ZHANG 9th March 2024 on: March 23, 2024, 11:34:48 PM
I had to look for a source about this because I had no idea about Wilder and Zhang being in talks. After Zhang lost to Parker it was Parker fresh from his win that was looking forward to the rematch while Zhang stayed silent, I thought it was a bit odd. It is now being touted in reports that Parker could see a rematch with Joyce.

To be honest, the Zhang vs Wilder fight does not excite me at all especially after the abysmal display by Wilder when he lost to Parker, however Joyce did beat Parker late on in their fight therefore I am interested in watching them fight again and I would be confident Parker would beat Joyce the next time they meet.

Well it's the Saudi that are involved here or probably push this fight to be included in the undercard in the Beterbiev and Bivol. So I'm not surprised that Zhang skipped the rematch or that Parker will have to agree and wait for Zhang.

True, Wilder doesn't look good against Parker and we suspect that he is no longer in his prime and he was exposed already as just having that power but don't know how to box. And he is lucky that he has been given opportunity to be inserted in the undercard.
292  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC 2030 Assumptions on: March 23, 2024, 11:17:46 PM
"You will own nothing and you will be happy." It's up to the people to decide if this is what they really want.
And saddest thing is that almost every body will scroll past your post and never think about it before it is too late already.

But I still have a slight hope.  Maybe Bitcoin will actually protect us from that kind of world and we all realize things before it becomes irreversible.

I think it has proven itself already, store of value and hedge against economic turmoil to even safe heaven specially in the pandemic. So if we go by that premise, then we should be really investing on it and be happy, be a holder for at least in the next coming years or till 2030 as what the OP is asking.

And with it's supply being limited by that time and almost all bitcoin has been mined, 98-99% by 2030, the demand is going to be very high that what we thought the price is not possible like a million per BTC might eventually happen.

I have been testing indicators and strategies for a while trying to come up with profitable ways to trade. But I cant seen to beat a winning rate of about 50% on a 1:1 risk reward. Nothing I tried is giving me an edge
While testing some pinescript code yesterday using a basic strategy for testing purposes of entering trades when a green candle appears after a red one I also got a win rate of 50%. So I cant seem to beat a coin toss.

And it just shows that no strategies are going to work overtime, sometimes you will take a big L, and then recover on the other day to recoup that lose. That's what trading is all about, you are just giving yourself a hard time to find that perfect strategy or indicators, but at the end of the day you won't.

The market is very volatile, and as far as I can remember, way back 2018, there were a lot of services here being offered and suggesting that they have found a methodology to make money, but at the end of the month, all of then didn't earn a single money and on the contrary they incurred negatives, meaning their strategy doesn't work in the long run.
296  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Beterbiev vs. Bivol - Undisputed Light Heavyweight Championship on: March 22, 2024, 11:01:39 PM
And after almost 3 weeks, there's no movement in the odds,

Beterviev @1.86 and Bivol @1.88. At least it's good to have this kind of checkpoint before the odds and see who will be the favorite. But as we have been discussing, this is 50/50 and fight fans are still divided as to where their bets will be.

The fight is still very far, and if we are looking for more listing of the odds, we will have to wait. But in any case, we can bet this early as ML is also very attractive.  Smiley

On the moneyline, that's just likely the odds we are getting. However, I like to ask what bookie you are using because the odds seem pretty low, means they are getting big commission which was suppose to be not more than 10% on a 50/50 fight, some could even offer 1.95 for both sides but 1.90 is still reasonable.

I think almost all crypto bookies or even fiat base gets their odds in Las Vegas or companies like https://www.betradar.com/. So this line could be across every crypto sports bookies.

So it's not like they want to get a commission, if there are big difference in odds, this arbitrage will be used by some gamblers and it's not end up good to this sport bookies. So it must be uniform at least across platform. Perhaps it will just be a small difference maybe .20-.40 the most.
297  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Bunny Loader ver 3.0 - most crypto wallets are being targeted on: March 22, 2024, 10:27:18 PM
Does using an onscreen keyboard prevent the data from getting  popped up onscreen incase of keyboard  malwares?? Or we could just  stop the keyboard from popping

The keylogger malware targets your keystroke. It takes record of the data typed on the keyboard and forwards it to the hacker. However, when you use the virtual keyboard (touchscreens and mouse), Keyloggers cannot monitor or take record of your keystrokes because no keys are pressed physically. So the virtual keyboard helps to prevent sensitive data like password, seed phrase, credit card number from being recorded by a keylogger.

Yes, for now it will be safe, but who knows, this hackers are evolving as well, and they could developed a new version much more powerful than the current one to have the capability to track everything, even virtual keyboard.

So it's not safe to assume here, we still have to do our due diligent specially on the laptops or personal computer that we used. I switch to Linux Mint years ago and up to know if I have to deal with my crypto, it's the OS that I used.
298  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Jake Paul to Fight Mike Tyson in Live Netflix Boxing Event - July 20 on: March 22, 2024, 10:03:06 PM
This is the main reason of it all, Tyson would not be fighting a boxer that could potentially destroy his health, so whatever the outcome  of the fight, if it's gonna push through, we should always consider the possibility that it will be just as scripted as wrestling. I mean, there's no reason to expect that Tyson could beat a young boxer, he is great of course, no question about his legacy, but he is "OLD" (I like to emphasized that) and he could not longer go toe to toe in an intense fight.

You know what the outcome would be, both are gonna make big money and both are safe. In short, it's a win-win for them and it's up to us if we will buy the hype and watch it.
The thing is that if it was some old any other sport then we would understand, but boxers do not age well, all that fighting and all that getting punched, eventually catches up with you and you end up being not at your best self the older you get. Look at how Mohammed Ali passed away, dude was sick most of his life at the end there. Because he was punched so many times during his career, and that is a guy known for being able to avoid punches as well.

Also, I do not think that Mike Tyson has to lose, just because he is older doesn't mean he is not strong, dude still has a punch with him, which means that if Jake is smart enough he would avoid Tyson as much as possible, because I believe one serious punch to the chin could knock out Jake very easily.
We do know that this man is a legendary boxer and its true that even if he's old but doesnt mean that he cant be able to take down those young fighters which the age gap is really that too far off
and pretty sure that Jake is really that aware on whose been fighting into but of course this fight do make that good revenue then he wont really be backing off despite that he knows that he's at disadvantage considering that he's fighting on an old Mike but doesnt mean that he wont be able to pack a punch. One solid counter or jab will surely finish up this fight
but since this is an exhibition fight then they would really be making it a little bit more longer or really just giving a good show for those who had paid off.  Cheesy

Which the fight could just be DRAW and then all are winners except we're all just paying to watch them shadowboxing each other on Netflix.

Nonetheless, I still would like to see Jake lose against the old Mike if they for once want to impress us all. Mike is not what he is this time unlike back in the days when gets angrier when he learns his opponent isn't knockdown in the 1st round.

LOL, but yeah, I think majority here are buying tickets or wanted to watch the fight and see Jake Paul demolished by Mike Tyson in just one punch. Or just like in his Roy Jones Jr fight, everything was stage and so it ended up in a draw and obviously no winner between the two legends.

So there is still a lot of scenarios if this is a complete stage between the two.

Or if not, then it will be a good fight and Jake the favorite. However, for Tyson fans, they are going to pour their money for Mike here and at least close that odds before the actual date of the fight.

I think majority of us here has one time or another, win some big money with our last cash. And it might not happen only once but many times for me. But if I have to look at, it just base on pure luck and nothing more.

It felt good to win and experience this kind of phenomena, but at the end of the end, looking back, it could have been part of how gamblers become addicted. You experienced the adrenaline rush and try to go and repeat that same experience again and again, IMHO.
300  Economy / Economics / Re: Recession soon? on: March 21, 2024, 11:21:46 PM
All these things that are happening in the world is the cause of the government and the capitalists in the world. Because they want to control wealth by themselves. There are two business tycoons in my country and both sell cement. One of them was trying to reduce the price so that common poor people can buy and build house but the other guy influenced him to increase the price instead and cement which was sold as $3.69 is sold $10.50 now. So they are purposely doing this to suffer the people.

After the COVID19 things were still going well until the bad leaders took over the mantle of leadership and everything scattered. Companies are not hiring but instead they firing. Really we are in serious recession.

We are still feeling the effect of Covid-19 even if the ban or lockdown has been lifted for years already. It's hard to recover from that event, government is still affected and even their is a change of governance already since the pandemic, still they are inheriting the financial issues that was brought to us.

Even the biggest economies around the world like China, US and other European countries have problems. And we have heard warnings from financial analyst about the recessions. It's just up to us on how to hedge it, how to survived and then uses our resiliency time and time again.
