~ Hm, interesting. I'm not sure of that. I mean, money-wise. But if to think of the entertainment facet of this activity, of course exchanging RP to WoF is much more fun than waiting forever for 100k RPs and then exchanging them for what, 24 USD in Bitcoin?

I'd rather have 2,000 chances of winning that Rolex. Smiley

I agree I would also love to have more chances to even win not the Rolex which is the highest prize but I would also be happy with 500 USD Amazon Gift Card or an 1500 USD Iphone 12 Pro Max.Those prizes are much better than 24 USD you would get from exchanging these 100K RP to cash.Beside that with the amount of satoshi won from such WoF spins you can also gamble a bit of them daily in order to increase the number of RP to WoF exchanges daily.In the end it all depends on what is more enticing to each one of us.

Absolutely. I've also noticed that with WoF spins you are getting 50 sats around 30% of the time, so it's 600x50, it's 30,000 satoshis.



Who's betting on BITCOIN PRICE - AUGUST already?
I think this time this range



looks very attractive, regarding the odds and the probability of happening. I placed a small amount on the "$27,501 - $30,000" range today, but I think I'll place more. We still have 12 days for making our bets.
2962  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Japanese Animation Slot Machines on: August 11, 2022, 09:51:18 AM
I personally wouldn't play this slot because I'm not a "Madoka Magica" fan, even if its RTP was 99% instead of 96%-98% in slots I normally play. But if I were a big fan of these anime television series, I would play it even if its RTP was 94%.

Generally, your factor and consideration of playing slots depends highly on "Themes>RTP".

If that is so, you might miss some of the good slots with better RTPs since themes are a factor for you. Well, regardless and we already know about this fact, even how good the RTP is, it doesn't mean we will have a good luck on that slots so nothing wrong with your criterias of choosing.

Sometimes, players really prefer to choose a slot based on themes over anything else.

Exactly. And they are not losing much, money-wise, as you rightly pointed out. And by "not losing much" I mean they are actually not losing anything, unless they are making a million spins per day. And surely they aren't, because there are only 86,400 seconds in on day, and you physically can't make more spins than that number. So, the difference in RTP is not affecting them.

~ I think that slots with Japanese characters or manga will not be famous outside of Japan because these characters are familiar to a very narrow circle of people. In my opinion, to increase interest in slots, you should use more well-known characters or use a neutral theme that suits anyone regardless of where they live, interests, age, etc.

Firstly, Japanese characters are very famous outside of Japan. Secondly, the current population of Japan is 125.8 million. Basically, you could target that audience only and it would be enough.

~ The thing is most people are using google and they're trust the first to third domain since it's a popular sites, this forum has low traffic and people were interested in this forum because of Bitcoin or crypto, not crypto gambling.

We can't prevent this kind problem and most newbie getting end up being scammed, after that they will learn to search more deeply.

Maybe this is the case at the moment, but in the future I believe when someone searches for "crypto gambling" on Google, they will see bitcointalk in top results.

I just checked, and, for me at least, neither "crypto gambling" nor even "Bitcoin gambling" makes bitcointalk.org to appear in the first 3 pages. This will change, I'm sure, because the info one can find here is much more reliable than on some sites that take top positions currently.

Yeah but we, all of us living human beings, have already won a lottery with much slimmer chance to win. Some scientists say the chance of being born as you are right now is 1 in 400 Trillion. And I personally believe them.
Yeah, that's definitely true but that doesn't have the bearing because you don't have a choice of being born, you know? But you have a choice in gambling.

Idk, to me winning a Jackpot like in the OP is very similar to being born. Smiley No way those guys were hoping for such a big win. So it was as unexpected to them as being born for us, in a way. Imagine floating in there as a pair of two different things that have 1 in 400 Trillion chance of meeting, and then, BOOM!, and you are born as you are. It's the same as spinning on that Mega Moolah slot, and winning $18 million all of a sudden, innit? Smiley
2968  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What will be running in your mind if Bitcoin reaches $1000 again on: August 10, 2022, 11:16:10 AM
Bitcoin has always been a good asset in the crypto market, so if its price drops drastically, then there’s no reason to doubt but always give our best shot on making a maximum purchase at that certain value. Bitcoin price won’t keep the same the whole time, so while the price is still very affordable, let’s grab the chance and take advantage on the best opportunity that comes. Bitcoin is the best gem in this market, so no need to question about its sudden price drop.

A price drop to as little as $1,000 is impossible. I think many whales would like to be able to manipulate it at this rate, but there are limits, even for whales. But let's imagine they somehow combined their efforts and made that happened. Why would they do it? Only one reason: to accumulate much more BTC buying it at such a low price. What can we, regular people, do then? Seize the opportunity! Buy as much as you can, because the same whales surely will make the price go up when they will be accumulating.
2969  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can change of environment have an effect on gambling addiction. on: August 10, 2022, 10:55:08 AM
~ Well, in the end it's up to the person himself if he wants to change and get rid of addiction or not. A good environment can help him in making decisions and will help him let go of what he thinks is important for him. And with the cooperation of everyone in this new environment, then he'll have the best chance to finally let go of his old ways.

But the most important thing here is his/her will to end their addiction. Don't blame the environment or anything. Don't search for excuses because you'll find millions of them if deep inside you don't want to stop being addicted. Do the opposite: while remaining in the same environment look for something that can distract you from gambling.
2970  Economy / Economics / Re: The BTC price must stabilize in the long run. on: August 10, 2022, 10:23:01 AM
Having stable coins is not stability, imo. Their value is pegged to the value of a fiat currency and, especially in times like these, one can't certainly expect a sustainable purchasing power of fiat currencies. And, in fact, unlike Bitcoin, stable coins can only lose their real value with time. So, if by "stability" we mean constant losing of real value, then stable coins are stable in that sense. But who wants that stability?
People who do not know what else to do, pick stablecoins because they believe that they could end up making a bit of profit with it. First of all, even if you are from the USA, you could use stuff like USDT to make sure you are in liquidity providing, interests, staking and whatever else you want to find and that's how you make a big profit.

However, if you are not from the US, then you could be doing even better because not only you will profit that way, but you will profit because USD would go up against your own nation currency as well. I have been doing it, and I know the returns are little, but it is certainly a way to make profit and I am quite happy about it.

I congratulate you on making profits with investing in USDT, but how it's different from simply investing in USD then?

~ We were used to the "Gold Standard" in the past, and it worked out pretty well. But Bitcoin is even better than Gold, so it's likely the world will switch to the "Bitcoin Standard" with decaying Fiat currencies. Nothing is set in stone, so we can only hope for the best. Just my thoughts Grin

It may be hard to understand for most people in the world at the moment, but these days Bitcoin indeed is better than gold. There's nothing wrong with gold itself, it will always be worth something, but today it's overpriced big time, same as it was 10 years ago. Bitcoin, on the other hand, is now fluctuating around its new bottom.

Since you people can't gamble because of the lack of money, this means that this idea of gambling with fake money suit you the most. If gambling is available to you with fake money, will you people gamble and get some entertainment? Since you will have nothing to lose, you will enjoy gambling the most. However, i wonder what will the gambling casino earn if they allow gambling with fake moneyRoll Eyes

Well, gambling with fake money can be only one option among others. On every slot I know you can play in DEMO mode with FUN money, but, of course, you can bet with real money on the same platform, hence the profit for casino. Another option I can think of is ads. A site where you can make sports bets for fun can be advertising some real gambling platforms.

I remember getting very, very close to the top 10 sometime back, but got thrown into the 100s just because of a small change in the BTC price which pissed me off. BTC was my sworn enemy for a moment back then.
This is how last minute game changing through bitcoin volatility and prices can vary a lot but in these competitions there are many predictions close sometimes and these fluctuations could push you down in the winning list.But this is how it works in the end and you need to be lucky also.

With predicting BTC price this is absolutely the case. Bitcoin price can change big time within a week, and no one can even tell in what direction it'll go. Once I was among the winners of Bitcasino.io's Bitcoin Predictor challenge, like this ongoing one, but I never thought it happened because I was such an expert. Of course it was pure luck. Smiley
2974  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and Fengshui on: August 09, 2022, 11:31:11 AM
~ Luck in gambling is an entity independent of other factors.  Luck just exists.  Some people are lucky in gambling.  They win big sums of money.  That is what fascinates people.  Single combat with fate (luck). 

I agree, only it's not like some people can be inherently luckier in gambling than others. We can never say in advance who's more lucky. Only later, after someone won a big amount we say, "Oh, he's a lucky bastard!" Only post factum. And nothing, absolutely nothing, including Feng shui, can change that.
2975  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling in Moderation, Pros can out weigh its Cons in Financial and Health? on: August 09, 2022, 10:31:32 AM
I think gambling is sort of simulation in life where you play and directly win at financial means. So it has escapist mechanism in itself. Because of this I believe, gambling can be very fun to go away from stressful things in life. I don't count financial benefits even. But gamblers should be respectful to their family while escaping from bad sides of life. It can be damaging to totally escape life.

Yeah, totally escaping life is never a good thing, especially if you want to do it frequently and for a long period of time. Maybe you should reconsider your way of living instead of trying to escape it through gambling, alcohol, drugs or whatever. In fact, I think gambling shouldn't be in one list along with drugs and alcohol even. Gambling, if done in moderation, can be a healthier way for you to relax.
2976  Economy / Economics / Re: Where should I invest? on: August 09, 2022, 09:46:10 AM
The cryptocurrency market is much more unstable than the fiat currency, bond, or stock market. Before investing in cryptocurrencies, I recommend you think about it very well -- you can lose all your money in one day. I am studying at a medical college. To diversify our studies, a new finance department has been introduced
But we have to remember that many people are getting huge profit by investing on crypto currency. It is true that there is no short cut way to get rich within short time. We have to implement strategic planning to get profit. We should invest in different sectors for more safety.

Whatever we do when investing in cryptocurrencies, no matter how much research we perform,  we should understand that a certain amount of risk will always be there. You will not lose everything at once, like some people are saying in this thread, but you have to be ready for seeing your assets loosing significant part of their value. It can be a temporary thing, like for BTC or ETH, or it can be final, like for some sh*tcoins, so be ready for that. Don't invest more than you can afford to lose.

It could be the situation that he still lives with his parents and saves little by little. But I think if depositing as much as 20% of his savings just to enjoy gambling, I don't think it's wise because he can forget to control how much he spends. A total of 20% of the savings is for one-time use or several times playing gambling would not be recommended to use that amount for gambling.

The percentage is calculated this way: If you earn $100 per day, then spending $20 per day on gambling means you spend 20% on gambling.  If you spend $20 per week, that's not 20% of your earnings/savings. That's around 3% which is acceptable.

That's a huge part of savings for someone supporting their family, but the word "savings" is what caught my attention here, see, not "earnings", but "savings". I think it means the guy is living with his parents, saving little by little from what he's getting for small expenses. I may be wrong of course, but then the guy should probably reconsider his budgeting. Spending 20% on gambling is unacceptably a lot.
For me, 20 percent isn't that much ~
Same here 20% isn't that much. Let us say my weekly savings is around 50$ so that makes $10 an allocation for gambling.  In a month's time, I would have $200  savings and $40 of those would be allocated to gambling. $40 a month for gambling is a small amount in my opinion.  Other players gamble more than that in a week.

If by "savings" you mean the money allocated for entertainment, I agree with you, 20% isn't that much. But that's only if we are talking about spare money.

~ VPN is not bad as long as it isn't specially said to be a banned offense. And I have to say, using another IP other than yours, hell using an IP that is not even from the same place as yours, would always end up blowing back on your face for sure. Doesn't mean that it will be caught right away, or even if not caught, doesn't mean it will not create a problem.

But why? Can't you be travelling, for example? These days many people travel a lot, and they have their laptop with them. If today they log in to Duelbits from Madrid, and the next day it's Berlin, they can be traveling or they can be using VPN, how can you tell?

But, that doesn't change the fact that we are not dealing with something special here, and that's an important difference. We should be focusing a bit more towards the fact that VPN is not illegal to use, but it is frowned upon when you do something wrong and they will always be looking to find something you did wrong.

Yes, it's their right, let them look. Only it shouldn't take long, and if you are doing nothing wrong, you should be allowed to play from wherever you want.

I do the same,I always convert them to WoF spins bonus per roll,I find it to be the best way to spend them without having to wait to much in order to gather them for the minimum payout which is 100.000 RP,not an easy number if you are not a Premium Member and at least level 3 or level 4 meaning to have the more WoF spins possible from your Premium membership.There are a lot of other people who like to wait until they convert them to 0.001 Bitcoin but for me that is not a satisfying number at all.I am sure we win more by exchanging RP to WoF in the long run rather than wait for the conversion to 0.001 Bitcoin.

Hm, interesting. I'm not sure of that. I mean, money-wise. But if to think of the entertainment facet of this activity, of course exchanging RP to WoF is much more fun than waiting forever for 100k RPs and then exchanging them for what, 24 USD in Bitcoin?

Good to see that your problem was solved.

As of the delay, as someone playing poker regularly on Betnomi.com, I was glad to see this post by @icopress:

~Betnomi told me that this case was checked for poker cheating, same pattern as another user (but he is clear).

Yesterday the withdrawal was processed.

Cheating with multi-accounting is annoying. No one wants cheaters had that advantage. But now I'm wondering, could there be another way to cheat in poker on Betnomi platform? I think, no. But what would you say, @icopress?
