It is possible that we may require KYC at some point, so it's best to find out for your certain situation if we may require it or not.

KYC is an important consideration for players and so giving a conditional response with "may" may not be appreciated as direct response as it varies. So it will be nicer to guide players on that or if there are conditions that will warrant the request for KYC. For example if there is a particular range of winning that will require request for KYC or not, this will be fine instead of playing without the fore knowledge and later requiring KYC update. This I think can be properly cleared as a representative without a customer necessarily having a particular experience with playing.

Op you have not made strong competition for stake as you can see everyone who has got to make a choice have done that, making a giveaway for stakes. Some of the names are not known while stake have been here along time and have had big players like drake. It is not a very robust list for bettors to choose from, there are reputable names in the forum apart from those mentioned example there is FortuneJack, flush.. Are there criteria you used to make your selection? And there financial value attached to the award?

By all means, if you passed the verification process and your kyc is successful I don't think the casino has any more right to withhold your withdrawal, where there will be a problem in a situation where some of your KYC steps are unsuccessful there could nail you with that but since you said you managed to pass all the KYC process and they refused you access to the $8,000 withdrawal.
And of a truth, if I were in your shoes I will also call the casino a scam since they are deliberately withholding my withdrawal unnecessarily.

Reading the context of the OP, I’m sure that his problem was casino keeps rejecting his KYC submission despite he submits all the requirements for unknown reason. Simply the casino won’t accept his requirements as valid for him to withdraw his account. This comes his accusation against the casino for not accepting his KYC verification which is still questionable because there’s no further details on what kind of document he is submitting and whether coincides to the casino basic requirements for the KYC.

And you now manage to process with the verification and they failed to pass you?

The op verification of his KYC maybe not have been completed or the casino is yet to verify it and this may be as a result of so many reasons including blur picture and document among others. Also there could be other tiny details that are being looked out for. I have been in such situation of blurred document etc and until you provide a clearer information, the KYC maybe not be approved. However reading ToS and playing in a reputable casino safe us the stress of withdrawal when you win
2866  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Rigged Game on: April 09, 2023, 06:11:19 PM
I have not heard of such as rigged game in casino but that doesn't mean the possibilities are not there especially in casinos that have not been confirmed to be reputable and also where the gambler has made substantial winning against them.

On a broader note, casino is gambling business, based on luck like gambling itself and owned by an individual or group of individuals with the aim to make profit like any other business establishment. So don't expect to have a winning edge over casinos because they are programmed to have a reasonable winning advantage over the customer, so that whatever you do to win the chances for that is mathematically reduced against the customer. So it may not be rigged but chances of winning is very much limited. This link on how to know if casino games are rigged or not will be useful to this thread


2867  Economy / Economics / Re: Recession Highly Likely on: April 09, 2023, 01:55:38 PM
The recession is not impossible to come down on some countries with the way things have turned out. One major factor that can make this recession hit different continent (if it has not already) the increase in inflation and high unemployment rate. These two factors have relationship with finance either incoming finance or out going finance. When there is no source of income, that is an indication that there is recession either on a family level or country.

To prepare for recession properly, my suggestion is to increase the level of manufacturing by the government and this will support the unemployed and the proceed goes back to the society which will add to the reserve.

Na better talk you carry come board like this because me too I don dey notice am say the thing don dey increase. Apart from say people dey hungry for the country now but some people dey over do am without any recourse to their person. Although normally you fit sincerely dey hungry for occasion especially when you don tay for there and if food dey disposal that one dey normal to collect if you want eat but some people fit drag food stain their clothes, e no dey necessary especially if you can afford it, na to just stroll enjoy one place and entertain yourself.

But e get the one wey I dey notice for where children dey for such thing, them dey sit down chop like plate for public place and sometimes their mom go dey complain say dey don't eat plenty like that for house. Is this a case of calling the parents out or variety is the spice of life  Grin


Before na old people weh I deh see do am. The old people own na to pack party food go house. And thereby deh disgrace their children weh no go too like the thing.

The children wey suppose to complain say their old people dey pack food go house, no be them still dey drag food? Kettle no go fit call pot black na.
2869  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Online casino always take risks? on: April 08, 2023, 01:39:55 PM

A great deal of influencers are not going to care about where the money comes from as long as they get paid, and this is sad as they allow themselves to be used by casinos with poor reputation which eventually will scam anyone that is willing to follow their advice.

As well we have had a typical example of such influencers here promoting casino already flagged as scam because of not being transparent to clear allegation of scam against them but they are also able to hire accounts to influence their site despite being flagged and yet some are playing under them. Such players are to be blamed for not doing proper research if anything goes wrong with their winning.


And then when they have to suffer the backlash they will pretend that it was not their fault, however no matter how influential they believe themselves to be, things will get to a point in which the people that got scammed will finally realize the truth and they will keep complaining about their past actions and eventually they will have to leave that profession behind.

A casino that is not licensed will hardly redeem complaints of players if abinitio they have the intention of playing a fast one on gamblers, so this buttress the point of playing in reputable casino with honest positive reviews.

Hi friends, I have some questions for you guys about online casinos

What will you do if you don't know that a online casino will ask you for KYC after winning over 8,000$ on the platform? And you now manage to process with the verification and they failed to pass you? Can you consider such a casino a scam?


This is your first question or inquiry. This is interesting but what we have to know is that there is a difference between not knowing and not being able to read the ToS (Terms of Service) or read the place it was stated. Therefore , if the casino has stated it somewhere in the site but the bettor was impatient to read and only interested in the aspect of profiting then it is at the peril of the bettor not to be interested to know how to get his winnings out from the casino. This will impliedly mean ignorant of the law is not an excuse as it is said in latin maxim, ignorantia juris non excusat.

On the other, if the casino didn't state KYC verification on its regulation and suddenly it pumped after you had won, such could be a flag for the casino to play a fast one on you. If a casino is reputable and sincerely, they will provide to you all necessary process that will guarantee that you receive your money after winning.

Also, imagine you get attracted to an online casino because of the bonuses they offer and you open an account and make your first deposit then you didn't receive the promised bonus, is this an act of scam or not?


Maybe despite opening the account to ensure you get the bonus after registration,you violated certain conditions you are required to met before the bonus would be sent to you. To be clear, it looks like conditions attached to the bonus may be the issue and not just opening an account.
2871  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why do new online casinos struggle? on: April 07, 2023, 10:13:15 AM

Why do new online casinos struggle?

New casinos are not just the only businesses that go through the level of struggle when starting up. Every new business has a teething stage especially if the company does not have parent body somewhere that directs,leads with experience and its reputation of the parent body is looked upon for patronage to the affiliate body/new business. So like every other business, it is not peculiar to only new casinos and there are different reasons for that including, finance to sustain staffs when profit have not started coming, right kind of manpower including PR, real purpose and focus, management, trust, that has alot to do with how long in operation. So pertaining to casino, apart from advertisement done, I believe TRUST is important for bettors because it involves betting your money and to get your winnings (if you have any) as at when due.



Or a new casino project should go all in on doing advertisements starting from their launch date with everything they've got?


Advertisement without real product or desired games won't sustain a casino. Is like when you have an empty container garnish with beautiful covered outta look while it is empty insid. So even beautiful interface is not enough.


A Few I knew are not doing fine and they had to put an end to their advertising campaigns.

If a product is good then you only require a little amount of sustainable advertising for it to grow. Those casinos that are still subsisting in the forum over the past two/three years have good products, good packages for bettors and admirers, good PR and finance to sustain campaigns on the forum, you can list them. So for a new casino to grow, it needs to have everything good plus finance to sustain it down times and it time it will build trust (which is important) and reputation which amounts to patronage.
2872  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Josh Taylor vs Teofimo Lopez on: April 07, 2023, 07:19:17 AM

Those are just rumors, though. He is fighting, and he has to make sure he is 100% ready to go toe to toe in the ring. If he has an undisclosed injury, that's not right because it's like he's robbing the fans, especially the bettors, who think that he is going to give his 100% to defeat Teofimo Lopez.


His injury status is already a public knowledge so his is not concealing it from the fans including the bettors. According to the interview with skyspots.com



So he has come public to say he is not ready to rush into a fight until he is confirmed good.

I believe Flush was the first time to work with you if I can really remember and my experience was cool. I enjoyed working with you and expect we will have another campaign to work together. You are quite experienced with good management skills to handle any campaign jobs, you also deliver promptly. Unfortunately flush was paused but thanks for the three weeks with you.
2877  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: New world order or CBDC against cryptocurrencies on: March 30, 2023, 02:26:34 PM

You seem to have some first hand info.

So, if I understand correctly, all the situation was due to reduction of cash in circulation as part of pre-election games. Is the situation returning to normal after the election or is it getting worse?


The popular opinion is that the redesign was because of the election and done in a rush to frustrate some certain politicians from vote buying because they stored old notes already in their homes. It is all games and the situation of cash is not very harsh now unlike before the elections as they have finished playing their games. Though there is still withdrawal limit and access to cash.


And why was the turnout so low? I read it was around 27%. You would expect it to be much higher especially when there's a heated rivalry for the office.


Popular opinion is that votes don't count. The people in power already have preferred candidates to fill all the levels of political positions including the president and that was what happened because they bypass the constitution, electoral laws and the technology for accreditation and transmission of results in real time. They went back to manual collation of votes which was against the electoral law passed last year and manipulated figures to favour the ruling party candidate and that has caused many election cases in court.


And how's it looking with CBDC, is it available for use by an average Nigerians at all?

Not quite sure there is focus on that.



According to some unconfirmed sources, the number of wallets has grown because the government began to use CBDC to pay social support to the poor in the country.



Cash circulation dropped because of cashless policy and not for the use of cbdc. The registration for bank apps increased and other payment portals but not cbdc



______
Please correct if this is a mistake. The next stage of implementation starts with the poor.


Not when there is adequate network to take care of the traffic. The rural communities are still far from the cashless policy and they are badly hit.
2878  Economy / Gambling / Re: How to use crypto to miximize profits through sport betting. on: March 28, 2023, 08:14:42 PM
It is not clear what you mean yet on your post. No doubt that casinos allow betting with cryptocurrency at least more than 80% of the casinos accept crypto betting. So what is your point? How do you mean with crypto betting being a source for maximizing of profit? Are you talking in terms of deposit and withdraw fees to and fro the casinos? Gamblers are already aware of sports betting with cryptocurrency and its advantages over fiat betting.
2879  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can a casino ever run without the government's awareness? on: March 28, 2023, 05:02:09 PM
Is it possible to run a decentralized gambling platform? I know that all popular gambling platforms have no choice but to be transparent to the law to have a steady business running, but with the introduction of CBDC and yes a registered gambling platform has no choice but to accept CBDC too,


For a moment I think your topic and the post doesn't really flow in the manner it is understandable but then I got your point. To answer your first question, yes they can run without government awareness but as you have rightly answered your own question, casinos are business outfit that are established to make gains and what determines the amount of gain in a business is the strength of patronage so that contribute to direct an employer on the kind of business and strategy to adopt. To run casino without government awareness you may not need KYC which makes it decentralized but how many bettors desires to play in secrecy when the issue of trust is getting higher. So a casino can desire to run in government control, pay tax and have return on investment due to high level patronage.


and I don't trust this centralized currency, I believe CBDC will have the capability to monitor incoming and outgoing funds, so that is what makes me think if it's possible to run a decentralized gambling platform at all.

It is gradually becoming a normal for bettors to play on a regulated casino because of same trust you mentioned.

Why don't we apply that in investing in general and investing in virtual currencies in particular?


To compare bitcoin to the organic and structured nature of life survival in the economic world then we may not be doing a very good service and understanding of bitcoin in the space that it is  trying to occupy. For the doubts I can't say if Satoshi did envisage the institutional challenges that bitcoin is undergoing from different government and their agencies. So investment in virtual currency like bitcoin for now isn't without a little kind of skeptism unlike it contemporary.
