2901  Economy / Gambling / Re: best crypto dice site for reward systems? on: August 21, 2020, 09:19:41 PM
hi, I am looking for the best crypto site with dice for high rollers. sites with high maximum bets and the best reward programs. so far this looks like it is stake, but are there any better than that? i also like using seuntjie dicebot but it is not necessarily required.
If you haven't tried, you can give CryptoGames a visit. They have an excellent reward system. Highly rollers can mainly benefit from it. You can easily reach the maximum faucet level if you are a high roller and become a regular user over there. Currently, the faucet will give you around 6k sat+ for the max level.
You also get to be the part of the wagering contest. Be on the top and you can receive up to 1.5 BTC! Altcoins also have their own wagering reward. If you are rolling high and you get lucky, you might win the whole progressive jackpot!
2902  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: looking to the future of crypto on: August 21, 2020, 09:13:19 PM
Seeing the development of new projects that have sprung up recently has people experiencing a motion of no confidence in crypto. because many projects do not have good long-term prospects. they just want to get profit alone regardless of the losses of others and do not develop it. have you ever thought that

what is your opinion?
They never had a long term prospects. All those "quite profit" and "high investment" returns were the result of the hype that has been created back in 2017. I feel bad for those who joined in late. They were the one who made all the loss and one mans loss is another mans profit.
Most of the projects are scam. Even now, there are few projects popping up every now and then, which eventually ends up dying. But, what does this have to do with the future of crypto? The future of crypto currencies are not some "shit random projects"!
2903  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Nitrogen casino glitch on: August 21, 2020, 07:13:12 PM
I doubt this is going to work next week. They got aware of the glitch (and probably already fixed) but did not want others to know or something, so they kept on denying it they fix it. I mean if someone could join the tables without paying any real money, they wouldn't be scared to play and this comes as an disadvantage for the users that are playing with legit money.
You should have screen recorded it. Provide us with some screenshots of your transaction and game history so that we can verify your claims.
2904  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin might never reach it's ATH anymore on: August 21, 2020, 06:17:16 PM
Now people are more educated regarding crypto. So if they invest into crypto means crypto is drawing attention. People are greedy and they bought btc at insane price. It also happened to other stocks. May be this will not happen easily in future. But btc will grow and we expect btc to be ATH in future for the potential. No hype, no bubble just pure tech.
So you want people to invest on bitcoin so that it can easily reach the all time high once again? Aren't "you" being the greedy one?
Statements like your are what discourages people from buying bitcoin. If the price is high, according to you, we shouldn't invest because that is "insane" price? Then how would you expect the price to increase further? How do you expect people to enter the market when the price is high?
2905  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin fueling to launch to the moon anytime soon. on: August 21, 2020, 05:40:02 PM
Lol, so you wish to keep on investing since you think that the price is going to go above 20,000 USD just because you are seeing the same patter as before? Let me suggest you something, don't invest because you "think" the same pattern is going to repeat. If you have been in the crypto market for long, you should know this by now that the price of crypto currencies are unpredictable. They may follow patterns, but that is not always the case. You will see irregularities. Some events may take place that might cause the price of crypto currencies to fall down. And you will keep on hearing people say "bitcoin is going to moon now" whenever they see the price increasing slightly. Don't fall for those hype.
2906  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Crypto cards on: August 21, 2020, 07:16:46 AM
If you are going to be using Crypto credit card, then why don't you use your normal cards given by your bank instead? Sell your coins for fiat and transfer to bank. Less hassle to be honest. I remember getting a a physical bitpay card. I had to submit a lot of identification documents and then received it after few weeks. The fees were insane. They were at that time allowed to be used in some specific states. If you used it outside those states, they would consider your transaction as international transaction and had to pay even more fee than regular. And some POS machines straight rejected the cards. Had to use multiple to POS to see which one accepted. Not sure how if they have changed or not.
2907  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Sports Industry taking over the Crypto space on: August 21, 2020, 07:06:08 AM
It is not surprising at all. With government now properly regulating the online crypto casinos which is now allowing almost all crypto casinos to operate legally, the crypto space was bound to take over. Lots and lots of benefit for both the operators of the casinos and their users.
The flexibility of adding funds and withdrawing it within few seconds has made all those casinos to adopt the usage of crypto currencies. (but kinda feels like you are shilling for the token you have mentioned).
2908  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which site do you use to get fresh updates on different projects event on: August 20, 2020, 09:24:54 PM
It's an easy way to make money if someone trades based on different event I think. But when I got the news, I can not entry at early point. So, which site do you use to get event update of different projects? Is there any app which can notify you before 15 days of an event? I would like to get all the possible ways to get such event update. Please share which one do you use.
I think your best bet would be this forum. Almost all projects will have an announcement thread over here. They keep on updating the thread with all kinds of upcoming events. You can add the thread to your watch list. Though remember, all those project investment comes with huge risks. Most of them end up dying or are just here to scam.
But one thing, if you do keep yourself updated, you can exit and secure most of your investment before you lose anything. Keeping yourself updated will let your spot any red flag as soon as possible. The forum users are quick to spot scams Wink.
2909  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is it possibleTrump Will Prohibit Bitcoin? on: August 20, 2020, 09:11:33 PM
I do remember the president making some anti bitcoin statements. But, I doubt he will jump over and start banning the use of bitcoin. Even if he does, it is not going to be good from him.
The big question is, how is he going to prohibit people from using it? I mean bitcoin is decentralized. As long as people do convert it to cash or use the banks, there is nothing the Government can do. It is more hard to stop the usage of bitcoin than you think.
2910  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Governments cannot control Bitcoin on: August 20, 2020, 08:13:05 PM
As you say, governments cannot control bitcoin, and they cannot control this market. That's why many countries have tried to ban cryptocurrency because they can't control it, they fear it will cause Fiat to crash.
No, the government can control the usage of bitcoin through heavy/strict regulation. Yeah, it is going to be quite difficult for them, but trust me, almost every countries are catching up! A decade before, almost no casino, exchange or any crypto currency related service asked for identification. But, now almost most of the services requires users through go through the KYC process.
And they aren't afraid because it is going to "crash fiat". They are scared people might use it to evade taxes and launder money easily.
2911  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What sports do you think that can resume amid Covid-19 scare. on: August 20, 2020, 07:41:52 PM
Funny like in almost three months after, nearly all kinds of live sports has already resumed. I never thought they would resume, at least not this early due to the impact of the pandemic. But, yeah most of them are just broadcasted live with little (only VIPs and maintaining all kinds of rules so they don't put themselves in danger) to no audience at all.
At least people can now enjoy watching sports from home again. Better than no sports at all.
2912  Economy / Economics / Re: COVID19 VACCINE AND ECONOMIC GROWTH? on: August 20, 2020, 04:59:58 PM
It is known worldwide that russia had been into the last phase of the trials of Covid19 Vaccine. It already coordinated with other countries to participate in the last phase of trial and that is the mass vaccination of the said Vaccine for covid19. Some countries like Philippines is wiling to cooperate and even buy the Vaccine.

As I have read some articles about creating a Vaccine would take the usual time frame needed before it will be created and declare as safe could take up to several years like 5-25 years. In this case the Vaccine was being made rush and it could harm people especially in the plan for mass vaccnation. I can't imagine the devastating effect of the vaccine if found out later the bad side effects on human body. Like the Dengvaxia issue wherein most people get injected without dengue history will complicate dengue illness. The dengue will become severe when one injected with dengcaxia for those who had not been into dengue sickness before. The sad thing is that the vaccine effect will take up to 5 years. So, five years of being stress not to get dengue and a life threating vaccine being injected to the body is something awful.

They entered the final phase? When did you even complete the first two phases? You won't find any data about how the first two phases went. We even doubt if they actually completed the first two phases.
And yeah, it is going to be dangerous. Read about the 1976 swine flu vaccine mass immunization and how it ended.


-snip-
Now, if the trial of this vaccine will come to your place and ask you to get injected by the vaccine for free would you do it? or not?

If it could be proven effective what do you think about the economy of all country which will going to lead now in the economic growth?

I doubt I would. Don't want to get paralyzed or fucked up for the rest of my life. I would rather wait for a well developed vaccine.
I don't think the vaccine itself will case huge changes to the economy, but once it helps to end the pandemic, the economy is going back to normal.

2913  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: A crypto startup is now funding people in Bitcoin for delayed flights. on: August 20, 2020, 06:56:15 AM
Next time you experience a flight delay, you can now receive compensation in Bitcoin. Colibra.io are offering to fund people in Bitcoin whenever they have experienced a flight delay of over 1 hour which is rather handy!

It's interesting how more startups are offering a Bitcoin payment method and it's likely that this will continue as it also gives a lot of startups good exposure to the community. With this becoming the norm, I can see Bitcoin payments being relatively entrenched as a payment method for future startups helping the crypto ecosystem in general.

The full article can be found here: https://cointelegraph.com/news/bulgarian-startup-will-pay-you-bitcoin-when-your-flight-is-delayed
If this is true that they charge 30% (like others mentioned) as a service fee, the  I guess this is possible for them. I haven't visited the site, but I am sure they will just compensate a part or full service fee they have taken. Just an incentive to make people use their service.
But, why would someone use them if their service fee is as high as 30%?
2914  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Importance of Bitcoin during the Pandemic on: August 19, 2020, 07:32:43 PM
Bitcoin is a famous and valuable digital currency in crypto world. Many hackers using it on their evil deeds,that's why many people says that bitcoin is useful for criminals and people involved with them. But despite that,bitcoins value keep on increasing and many others also said that bitcoin is important because of the technology that makes it work.
I hate this kind of arguments that people put up. So what do you think people used before crypto currencies were invented? I mean how did they commit their illegal acts? How did the terrorists get their financial support? Are they trying to say that there were no illegal activities before crypto currencies were made?

During this time that we are experiencing difficulties because of pandemic ,I can say that bitcoin is what we really need.Why? What is the importance of bitcoin now?
     >Bitcoin is so important during this time of pandemic that we need to take care of ourselves and for our families and loved ones to not be infected with the virus.

     >Bitcoin is intangible,you can't touch or handle it unlike fiat money that hold by different hands and it is prone to viruses.

     >Bitcoin serves as an instrument for online payments away from covid 19 and with the ability to transact internationally beyond the framework of financial regulation.

     >Millions of people have lost their job because of this pandemic. Why not use this bitcoin as a substitute to your work in order to earn money to sustain the needs of your family.
       I know  there are other ways to earn but in terms of safety from virus outside our home much better to earn money using bitcoin. Also,there are many ways to earn it.
1. ?? (what does bitcoin importance has to do with taking care of family?)
2. You can make cashless transaction with fiatmoney.
3. You can do that with paypal too.
4. You mean by trading? Risks are involved!

I am not against crypto currencies, but arguments like these misleads people.
2915  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Crypto currency is all about Hodling. on: August 19, 2020, 07:21:50 AM
I beg to differ. It is not about holding only. Crypto currencies were made to be used as a medium of exchange. It wasn't made for using it as an investment. Unfortunately, due to some issues, people find it more suitable to invest in, other than using it as a medium of exchange. But it is a good thing to encourage people to use it as a regular currency.
And yeah, holding gives you more profit in the long run. But so does trading, if you know how to trade.
2916  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: For the kind attention of the Gambling sites , a small suggestion on: August 18, 2020, 08:28:22 PM
Hello

I wanted to write this post because I recently stumbled across an article where apparently a minor was accidentally allowed in an offline casino and it got me thinking how it would be easier for kids to reach the gambling sites online.

https://www.cnn.com/2020/08/15/australia/australia-casino-underage-gambling-intl-hnk-scli/index.html

This happened in Australia.

I do know of wonderful online casino sites who are taking care of people who are struck by the pandemic at the same time creating a support helpline for the customers.

Few things I would like to discuss here:

1) If KYC along with other information is needed to make sure Minors cannot access the gambling sites , I do think we should support it , until and unless the company agrees to take care of the privacy and data of their customers that I know they happily will.

2) I do think we have to seriously take this matter in consideration , Gambling is a sport , an activity , a leisure for people , I do support it when done in moderation but when it comes to kids , I do think each and everyone of us is entitled to look into this matter seriously.

I want to open this thread to engage the attention of the esteemed online Gambling sites here , so that they can at least give this a thought.

Maybe we need to think beyond KYC, but then again there is a thin line between privacy and regulation , but I do think this matter is of utmost importance.

Please share your thoughts and suggest how we can tackle this issue.

Yeah, I have heard of that. The worst part is, it is their parents that let them in. They watched the gambling. Sad parenting to be honest.
Eventually each and every casino will have to ask for their users to go through the KYC process. The regulators are catching up. You can't escape them. You will have to follow the rules if you want to continue operating your casino. But like you said, privacy becomes an issue. There is no way you can tackle this but to trust the casino who you are providing your information to.
2917  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Invest in your ability to earn more. on: August 18, 2020, 08:38:00 AM
Totally agree with your point of view (expect the part where you said you can earn without hardwork, which isn't true. Even if you earn without hard work, you won't be earning your maximum). You need to invest in your abilities first and then start doing whatever your learned. But people don't understand this. Like, instead of learning what blockchain is, how trading works and about the market, they tend to start investing in cryptocurrencies to trade. The end result is always the same, huge unrecoverable losses.
2918  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Coinmarketcap's New Feature "Earn" on: August 18, 2020, 06:59:07 AM
Looks like it is region restricted according to their FAQ. You will receive the tokens after the end of the campaign. Kinda like a bounty campaign to me where they (band) are "advertising" about themselves. You will also receive a maximum of 10 USD worth of tokens.
But, yeah if they start paying people to learn about the technology behind crypto currencies, I would say its a good initiative. At least incentives like these are going to make people aware of new technology popping up.
2919  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How to make old people understand Bitcoin? on: August 15, 2020, 07:16:32 AM
I'm looking for the easiest way to make old people understand Bitcoin more thoroughly. I want to let the elderly know about the "Bitcoin revolution", yet I find it quite challenging to explain it to them in a way they can understand how it all works. There are some wallets that have a "user-friendly" interface, but even the basics of sending/receiving Bitcoin can have a steep learning curve for the older people. A Bitcoin wallet with built-in accessibility features, could help even elder people with vision or hearing problems to use the pioneer cryptocurrency in their daily lives.

If you happen to know of a way to make old people understand Bitcoin easily, please let me know. Any suggestions or recommendations will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Smiley
They don't need to know about the "bitcoin revolution", the technology behind it or any technological knowledge. Those knowledge would be absurd for them.
Instead you can just teach them how to send, receive and keep your wallets secure. I don't think any wallet have any kind of accessibility features. But if accessibility is still an issue, as far as I am aware, all operating system comes with accessibility feature which can be used with your browser or any application on your computer.
2920  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin and crypto currencies are getting dangerous on: August 15, 2020, 06:57:13 AM
I noticed how every exchange now enforces KYC on every individual that registers on their site, also the global governments/exchanges tracking bitcoin users and monitoring how they spend their bitcoins with the advanced visuals tools that’s out there, I believe if this stays like this and more and more companies start to enforce kyc on it customers, we will lose our freedom, people think bitcoin is the freedom but no it’s aint I believe it’s the most invasive surveillance mechanism ever, we can’t even use mixers anymore it’s basically doesn’t work because at the end of the day it’ll leave a trace no matter what you do, this is heading towards a solitary environmental and it’s not a good idea at all. Lets think twice and focus on our freedom, privacy and future.
So you are saying that bitcoin is getting dangerous because centralized exchanges are now asking for users to go through KYC or you think it is dangerous since exchanges are now considering it dangerous for which they now ask for KYCs? In both case you are wrong. Exchanges are asking for KYC because they are being forced to. The exchanges are centralized. If you use a centralized platform, then you will have to follow the rules. You will have to provide identification since they are regulated by the government.
You still have your freedom as long as you avoid using those central exchanges.
