The basic of answer here would be not gambling, that's probably the most responsible thing that you can do but if you're trying to gamble responsibly, you're better off not bringing a lot of money and try your hardest to limit your gambling to once per 2 weeks and make sure that other people have a control on your money, be it spouse or a loved ones so there's a failsafe when you lose your money quickly and you plan to get more, those stuff that I've said might be too much but I think that it's the best measure you can get.

I'm sorry that I come of to you as mad, it's just that whenever something unhinged happens and people use mental health as a low hanging fruit excuse to their behavior, it's just that there's evil but sane people out there and I don't think not everyone can be helped by a mental health professional because they're not crazy, they're just a plain old pieces of shit that do evil shit to unnerve other people.

If we're talking just a plain win or lose odd, I don't think that we're going to be seeing a possibility that those high odds as the likely winner because I've been there and the underdogs are always given the higher odds compared to the favorite team and I don't think that they're ever going to show you any proof that it's a profitable move even in lower leagues because as I've said, the most likely team to win are given the lower odds while the others have higher to attract gamblers to waste more money in hopes that they can multiply it quickly with those odds. My sport betting advice would be to just bet on both sides, you're either losing a little or you're winning a bit smaller but at the least you're safer.

I know you're trying to be funny but stereotyping mental health issue because someone's doing something unhinged is kind of a shitty scapegoat. Pretty sure that the person who did the article is a piece of shit but that doesn't mean that they're mentally ill because they can do that, cartel members that skin your face while you're alive are sane as anyone can be, how about that.

Regarding the article, OP should've checked the author of the Medium article to see if it's a credible news, which in this case is not as pointed out by other members already. Maybe next time anything weird is happening on the new, check multiple sources.

Usually people who say what they are don't actually say it because the need for them to talk about it doesn't do them any favor or that it's not a testament that they are who they preach, they just do it and let people decide if they are that kind of person. Regarding those streamers, these problem has been going on for so long and it seems to me that there's no cure to this besides streamers actually declining the deal with this casinos but given how lucrative the deals are, it's unlikely that they would decline it not to mention that up and coming streamers are caught off guard by this so they just accept it because what they have to do is easy and you really can't blame the casinos doing these scummy thing though, they have a business to run and no matter how you look at it, they're just trying to make their casinos as attractie to those viewers as much as possible even if it means they have to lie.
That doesn't mean that you can't have boundaries and morals, as an influencer that has thousands of viewers and you don't know a lot of them personally, it's your duty to be a role model to them because there's probably a child out there that's watching you and you're streaming gambling stuff.

I'm not being pessimistic though, I already have a considerable amount of bitcoin in my wallet and I just want to add more to what I currently have because I know that the pump is getting ever closer and I want to make sure that when that happens, I am not going to be saying to myself that I should've bought more bitcoin. I don't know much about how other countries plan to release what they currently have but one thing that I am sure of is that BRICS won't be doing anything, I am pretty sure that they're all currently infighting right now so they're not going to be influencing the bitcoin market or the global market anytime soon.

Does this factor in the result of the approval of bitcoin ETF? Some of the post are saying that if it's approved then it's going to improve the market prices but if not then there's a possibility that the price will either calm down or go down. @mk4 said that we've gone up too high too fast and I can agree with that too because this all happened before, price going up fast and people getting in the hype only to have their hopes up pulled under them giving them losses.

I know that there's a limit but given how billions of dollars in currency is lost or destroyed yearly in USD, I think that they're going to get away with printing more dollars to their name not to mention that they just keep doing loans on the Federal Reserve so they have no choice but to print more and since they're still the global reserve currency, I think we just have to bear with them printing papers that's slowly becoming worthless by the years. By the way, the countries that are complaining about the US being a reserve currency and it's influence on the global market, is still out there in shambles and they don't know how to compose themselves because they want to rule the other coutry members that they're trying to work with so US isn't scared.

Are we really sure that it's not going to? I hope your analysis is wrong because I've been slowly accumulating bitcoin and I have another upcoming big money coming and I want to make sure I'm buying a lot of bitcoin for a discounted price. But hey, if that's not going to be the case, I guess I'll just buy bitcoin in December and hope that I still get a lot of bitcoin value out of the money I'm going to get.

Bitcoin pumping is like Gandalf the Grey or White (whatever color you want him to be), you don't expect when he will arrive or when he will say farewell, he comes and goes whenever he pleases. I think that's the apt analogy that I can think off when it comes to our expectation about the price of bitcoin pumping. A meme that I can think of that's akin to this event is the "Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition" meme.

To accumulate that much I don't think they did all of that when the price was going down or when the price was down, pretty sure that some big company out there are buying no matter what the price is because as you've said, they're waiting for the bullrun and while they're waiting, they might as well continue accumulating no matter what the price is and in regards to whales taking profit early, the best thing that you can do about this is to take the profit when you have the feeling that the whales are going to make waves or a better option would be that you should have a certain price where no matter what, that's where you're going to sell all your bitcoins and then hope that it's the price right when bitcoin's about to go down again to do some correction.

So the guy behind the scenes that we're actually doing the hardwork are just nothing then? Did Elon really written the codes for the OpenAI? I can't really disagree that he's not smart, you can't really create companies that do different works if you're not smart but I would say that he's more of a visionary more than anything. I gotta ask though, how is X going to be profitable though? You didn't offer any insight on how that can be so I'm curious how.

I don't know if you're answer is based on statistics or on experience but if it's experience, it would be an unreliable answer because it's not basing off a large population, I would probably say the same thing because in my family, my mother is the one that does the budgeting but that can't mean that women are economical, what if the answer is that both gender are economical and that they're main difference is scaling, women are good at money managing in household level but men at the stocks level or investment fund level although that's another gender equality in the workplace debate which digresses from the point.

Another tip that can help you when you are strolling on the mall, is to not go there hungry that's going to cut your spending in there because even if the food is attracting, you're not going to give in because you have a full belly. Your 2nd advice has been my thing ever since I was in highschool, don't get caught in the race towards having all the stuff in the world because the things that you own and plan to own is going to end up owning you eventually.

The absence of beginner's luck should've been your wake up call then and there that you shouldn't pursue anymore gambling but you still did it, you played again. Also I wouldn't see that you gaining experience and knowledge in gambling should be a justification of your action to continue gambling, at the long run I am sure that you're going to lose more money than winning anything. I wouldn't agree with you about not having any luck in gambling and it's all skill, how can you say that to someone who only plays slot machines? I don't know if there's a proper way to pull down the stick to make the slots spin.

Regarding how lucky I am with gambling, I would say it's 70/30 for me, 70 is unlucky and 30 lucky, those 30 is pretty big but I don't gamble much so that 30 is not a likely thing to happen to me when I am gambling, I don't mind though it's not like I can do a thing about all of it, if the wheels of fate want me to be this unlucky then so be it I guess, I'll just gamble for fun so I can compensate and justify my lose streak.

These kind of parents aren't the kind of parents that don't deserve to have a children, parents that are on the phone most of the time are the kind that would raise childrens that will find attention no matter the cost. And with such neglectful parents then there's a big chance that the children's going to have a bad moral compass since being neglectful means that they're not properly guided and with little to no guidance they will be easily influenced into trying gambling at an early age although it's going to happen at a later age though when the need for attention becomes something that's in subconscious.

It's not hidden if everyone on the Internet can see it, of course it's to advertise him and to gain him Internet clout, why else would someone post this then? Pretty sure there's nothing virtuous about him posting this on social media. Maybe for you it is but sometimes some people want the justification of their decision to be sympathized by many people so it can ease the anxiety behind it or in the case of emoney, you just have to flex how much money you can afford to lose.

I don't know dude but the fact that you've answered that OP became the victim of phishing speaks for why this should be on Scam Accusations board, don't the phishing websites are also posted there too? Plus that's where you find the cautionary tales of what not to do and what to do in case you encounter a scam right and not this board, I think it's a common sense to put it there.

That's okay if you don't agree, I know that the way that I think of how they approach their waking is bit odd for many and that I kind of tolerate them for being silent a long time.
Yes you are right, that they should do something different to make their presence but right now that we're talking about them in their thread means that I am right a little bit about their fame that they don't need a bit of what you've suggested although they could've done so and given that they're already starting the campaign so I think they don't need to do a lot anymore.

The perpetrator didn't get anything out of it because the perpetrator just used the account to gamble so I don't know how they can report it as getting scammed but OP did definitely become a victim of a phishing attack and a much worse one because from what I've read, it looks like OP's attacker had control over his account remotely which is scary because that can mean that the hacker can probably access private files. I would probably be careful about my wording when it comes to this topic not deserving such attention, you're right that Stake doesn't have anything to do with it but I think that since they're the platform involved, maybe they can offer some help?

And to OP, I think that it's in your best interest to do this kind of post in Scam Accusations board and follow the format on reporting a scam or the incident and try to provide the screenshots that might help you regain that money if that can ever be a possibility.
