-cut- Maths say it has a chance of 0.000154% to happen, or 649,739 to 1. That's really hard. -cut-
Well that explains it why i haven't got any after year 2005. Got that in a live pokergame where the winner could enter to some costly tournament with pro players. It during a flop someone raised their stakes and i tried to buff and raised more. He went all in and i thought what the heck, i have high cards but nothing. Maybe i get lucky. Can't remember what the opponent had but he had such a good hand during flop that i totally understood he went all in. Guy was a sore loser. But it was his choice to go all in, i wasn't even playing seriously. I was just lucky. I haven't really played a lot for a while. I don't like to play online and playing live is fun but i am way too introvert to do that with strangers. It's just too taxing for me.

Oh you guys still talk with outsiders on this? I've stopped talking about my investments long time ago. Either people get intimidated, they don't understand or disagree. And while it's fine to disagree with me i still get ridiculed a lot. I advice if i am asked, but mostly my advices are somehing like: "don't get involved without researching a lot."
Just few days ago someone saw my crypto related profile and said: "Are you seriously unironically somekind of crypto bro?". I said that i bought my first cryptos near new years eve of 2013-2014. And after they spend some of their time laughing at how stupid NFTs and crypto is without me saying anything they must be realize at some point that i actually know a lot compared to them and suddenly they are not interested to talk about the whole subject.
Which is fine by me but i just got insulted and didn't even got a change to defend myself which is annoying. It's not like i am asking about their hobbies and laughing at their hobbies and saying that are they really unironically doing that. Well after POS least i dont have to deal with the accusations of how i am destroying the planet. Or if i am they are easy to shut down.
And no i don't want to laugh at my friends who were wrong. And i've been telling people whom i originally told that i have lost everything because i don't want to be a potential rich target of any kind.

Yes, I agree with you. However, I am not sure that this is how geopoliticians who develop methods for managing large groups of people think. Do these people really think that the world needs a large number of honest and decent people with a lot of free time? I'm not sure. As long as everyone of them plays a part of not being a destructive member of society it wouldn't hurt anyone, most likely work i described would show up in statistics of having more stable society. Everything else would work pretty much similarly as it is now, it's not like we would be removing capitalism by universal income. Political scientist just study the subject, they don't make any rules but in my scenario most people would want to make more money anyway as we live in a capitalistic society, so they would either invent jobs, or re-educate themselves for new jobs. For example, on a warship, it is believed that at any given moment the sailor should be busy with some business. Idleness on the ship is unacceptable!
But now you are talking about people who have work. And if you want less "idleness" in terms of working for your government to be running well oiled. There might as well be mandaroty civil service period in one's life for educating people in case of state wide emergencies so that logistics of workforce would work better when needed. Many politicians in non-democratic countries also believe that people should be constantly engaged in the struggle for existence. It can be a war with the enemy or hard, exhausting work under capitalism. If a person is busy competing in a large company, then he no longer has time and energy left for a revolution and attempts to overthrow the existing government.
Problems on those countries are often very complex and very hard to solve. And as an outsiders we can only so much.

Do you think it makes sense if a crypto gambling platform only accepts it's own token for gambling and gambling on it's platform? If the games they offer are one-of-a-kind, new, and addictive wouldn't this make the gambling token very valuable? I am asking on behalf of a friend who wants to build his own crypto gambling project on the blockchain. Will this work? Will this fail? What's your take on this?
Why would it make it valuable? I think that people would just avoid the casino. I know i would because why would i want to go over that hassle that i would need to buy a special token to get to play with it. With a high probability of it not having any value in the future. When on the other hand i cold just use numerous working casinos accepting all kinds of cryptos i could instantly gamble with. Would that token have any other purposes? And how exactly would this be on the blockchain? There are only few gambling sites actually on the chain and their gui isnn't very user friendly.

So you are talking about the sugar drop slot, right? To be honest that looks like a pretty generic slot game to me. Similar to Sugar Rush (Pragmatic play) i've been playing for a while now. With a small difference that those multipliers aren't moving in the board in sugar rush. You should definitely check that out if you like these kind of games. I've made pretty huge wins with it so i can definitely recommended it Found this by googling it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0P_I87ssvG0 Pretty well done with 2€ bet

I think OwlGames should do better job screening their employees. You have been talking to some low paid intern that has no skin in the game what so ever, someone who would do absolute minimum when it comes to their responsibility. Because no casino or site dealing with that much money would take potential exploits lightly.
You have done more then enough for them but if the development team hears about this the person you talked with surely gets fired. If they shrug their shoulders i would avoid OwlGames. But i think they would take this seriously if the word got trough.

Are we now on crypto bull run or this yet to be go down futher more down than 15500?
Depends how you look at it. Bears are definitely sweating and ton of shorts have been liquidated. Technicals are looking good and if you have been long enough in here, you can feel the hope being similar to other end of bears. Most of us being carefully optimistic, some being insanely optimistic. Obviously there are some permabears waiting for their turn to say they were right. There will be more of them looking for shorts but that's going to be a dangerous game.. Answer to the question: no i don't think so EDIT: Yes, i think we are (that was a weird opposite typo). If not, this would be biggest trap ever if it crashed there now.

A few years ago, I sold PolkaDot at its own high point after steadily buying it. From now on, I will continue to invest in PolkaDot and Ethereum again, what do you think about the future of these two coins?
Eth is solid, but can you share your thoughts why Polkadot would be? I personally don't see parachains that interesting that i would want to put any money on speculating the value. ETH on the other hand has the network effect, most talented developers working all sort of stuff in layer 2 solutions. It has lot to give in the future and i can see potential with it way more then most "eth killers". And i don't think most people see what kind of mountain they have to climb to be anything like eth is building. The code is a huge beast.

now there are many suicides, especially because the economy that is still unstable makes them even more stressed.
but actually, apart from stress, what makes someone think about ending their own life? What do you think
There are ton of reasons: Depression. Constant physical pain from illness that isn't going away, and just might get worse and kill you. Mental health problems. Money problems, fear of losing everything and living in the streets. Fear of the enemy combatant torturing you. Losing everyone you love. Loneliness. Gender identity and pressure from society makes you seem like a failure. There's no meaning in life. Honestly i could just go on, but it would get way darker. World is a scary place and not everyone has same cards to play it with. I choose not to do it because my life is pretty good and i would die anyway at one point and i can see no reason to speed it up. But i totally understand people who want to end theirs.

I wouldn't be surprised because I still see NFT projects until now even though they are lesser than last year. They aren't completely dead yet like the ICOs. Big NFTs are also backed by rich individuals so they will support these NFTs until the end. These NFTs are mainly the ones that celebrities get because their reselling value is high. -cut-
Well Initial Coin Offerings aren't really dead either, they just changed their form. When people first said they are over it was because they were all starting to be pointless scams. People said that thank god that's over, never again, we are smarter now. Then they started to talk about IEOs instead, which is exactly same thing as icos exept those tokens were sold in centralized exchanges, exchanges were supposed to have some quality control over them but in reality they didn't. Then they started to sell them in decentralized exchanges and called them IDOs. Same thing again. Now they are calling them launchpads. This is why it makes me smile a little bit when people say that NFTs are over. No they are not. If something they get regulated and change their shape a little and come back bigger then ever.

I'm personally skeptical on the ability of machine learning/neural networks to fully replace humans. I think it's more likely that it will boost productivity by performing the more simple and routine tasks, but there will still be the need for human touch. People will lose jobs because now a professional will be able to do the work of 2 professionals, but AI won't do the work of all professionals.
Well it won't be replacing humans anytime soon but many jobs sure as hell are going to be replaced by AI. At the start there will be need for humans to oversee AI and work as a fail safe, but this is not just about AI:s taking jobs. Every disruptive technology always makes some jobs obsolete and often some new jobs are invented because of it. I can remember people talking about blockchain taking out the middle man as a good thing. Being a middle man is someone's job as well. -cut- The fact is that a guaranteed basic income does not solve the main problem - people need not only to be fed, but also to give them the meaning of life. This is an existential problem! -cut-
Do you think that only paid jobs can give people meaning to life? How about getting your meaning of life by being a decent human being and helping others? By raising your kids and having more time with them? Work on your emotional issues so you can be more stable and don't have as much issues with others. There are ton of things in the field of self improvement you can work on if you don't have a job or other work to do.

Just the FTX bankruptcy, many people has lost faith in crypto and vowed not to return again. Binance is the largest exchange and Tether is the largest stable coin and the second highest coin after Bitcoin. If it happens it will be a total disaster.
Exactly, ftx debacle was not easy on investors and the entire market, almost all investor was in a panic frenzy even though some may try hard not to show it. Now replace that scenario to binance and tether at the same time ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif) it is definitely not worth imagining Well it's worth imagining if you believe it's going to happen. Because imagine the money you would make by having your money ready in other exchanges that would accept high leverage shorting. I have some money in Bybit for just in case. I wouldn't even need highest possible leverage because everything would crash so much it would be hard not to make ton of money by shorting. But you really need to be pessimist for the whole crypto scene to prepare fully for something like that and i am guessing those people don't have anything in crypto right now.

You mean betting limits on slots increase with VIP rank on Stake? That's strange I wasn't aware about that. Can someone else confirm that? I don't understand what could be the purpose of putting lower limits on slots to lower ranked accounts. I just checked it and my max betting limit on Starlight Princess is $1000 ($1250 if I activate the Double winning chance feature actually). It's ten times your limits, that's not a small gap at all. No wait, i am taking that back, i was wrong, i double checked and have $1000 bucks limit as well. I have no idea where i got that number from. First i thought i might have played with fun money, but there limit is $100. Maybe i accidentally clicked a wrong slot. Sorry, didn't mean to spread misinformation. Edit: activated double change mode in fun money side. Thats where i got the $125 limit from ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif)

There is nothing that will guarantee its users that they will not do it again. Even if they have the shares already, these people will be watching the company all the time. Because it's sure not going to get users on board for countless of years. As long as FTT issue will come up every time a crypto scam is on the discussion, the reputation will wreck it over and over.
I understand that there would be some serious issues and it would be hard for them to regain any trust from investors. However they are under microscope so i seriously would doubt them trying anything like that again. Fool me once... FTX is done. I wonder though why Binance didn't delist its token.
I was thinking about this too. My guess is that whales made ton of money by shorting it and delisting it midway might upset some whale clients. I would have shorted it in binance but for some reason i first didn't find it there and shorted it with a dollar that i got left in FTX for fun and got some pocket cash. I would have made serious money if i would have used any of my brain and focus on that seriously. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FDoN0OKB.png&t=665&c=vSWBuOnVsX4-Gw)

-cut- If you don't want to express your thoughts, simply answer with A or B.
Occasionally i am playing pvp games like poker. But turns out i am not build for it and get bored easily. So i would have to play several tables at once. But when i do play over 3 tables i get too distracted and it's harder to take breaks. I don't know what game you mean by race cars but monopoly should be fun for real money. However in reality i stick to gambling in sports and slots so i would pick A. I've been thinking i should try out table card games against the house too but i am not so excited about the fact theres no change hitting jackpot.

Only way i can see them opening again would be something similar that bitfinex did. Offering company shares to users who lost money or tokens they are obliged to slowly buy back and burn. This could also help ftx as people who would take this offer would need to drop their legal demands.

Hello I can't find how to convert my 888888 Kick tokens from ETH to your new BNB network. How do I do this? The responsibility of the developers is to ensure the proper functioning of the tokens and their exchange in case of network change. What is the situation?
I got them too ages ago. You supposedly needed to unfreeze them until before July 1st 2021 so your tokens are not worth anything. But it seemed like a scam anyway so i don't think it would have been possible to gain anything from those anyway. Just google 888888 Kick tokens and you get a lot of scam accusations. Just be glad you didn't fall for it before.

But this isn't really CBDC, just a stable coin. I am guessing that's a pilot program and fails on the fact that it's on open blockchain and to fact that transactions aren't instant and front running creates problems. I am not sure about laws in Australia, but interests for confidential transactions and privacy should be same as in EU. Maybe this works for some specific use cases but it isn't really government adopting CBCD.

After a while of not playing Sword of Ares for a long time, I tried to play it again last night. I tried my luck by placing a $0.2 bet and buying the Buy Bonus feature, where I get 15 Free Spins. And as it turned out, I could win as much as $39.21. Not bad for me ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) I immediately withdrew the winnings and left the game so I wouldn't be tempted to continue playing. I feel lucky https://replay.pragmaticplay.net/f1KPjLNKdtCongrats! That was fun just to watch. For some reason it's rewarding to watch others win as well. My go to slots these days is sugar Rush from pragmatic play too, last time i played with 20 cents several times and won over $70 with one roll. It happened without hitting free rolls and got me by surprise. Is there a way to still share a game if it was over 40 rolls before?

Thanks for providing the whitepaper, it might take me a while to get trough it to respond in detail. What comes to price, looks like it jumped. It was around $0.8 while ago. Well good for them. Still it's quite problematic to view it in dollars when the token is going to be volatile. I'll definitely take a closer look at the project now, marketcap isn't even 100m so it's pretty cheap (if their fundamentals hold up).
