2981  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Chess online? on: March 25, 2022, 12:08:01 PM
Just a quick question about chess I'm aware that there are platforms that combine this game with gambling. My question is, how do we prevent cheaters on this? For example, I play chess online while another computer simulates his moves, and what is the best move to counter it. It's a form of cheating because you can counter it in no time by simply watching the moves. This is really dumb because you are not showing your skills but if the money involves then i think there will be person that will cheat so that he will win

This is exactly the point that I made earlier in the thread. A computer can even beat the world champion in chess, what chance do normal people have? I also think it is not possible to get caught cheating online chess. Even if you setup a camera, and both players are being filmed, one of the players could have their friend in the background simulating the moves and telling him secretely what to do next.

So gambling on that is a good way to get cheated out of your money.

That depends on what you mean by "promising". Are you talking about the play-to-earn profit or the rising popularity? Basically, you should took a look at the numbers of people the games have amassed over the years and who currently has the most players if you want to figure out which is most played. But that won't mean their rewards will translate highest among the other games in terms of USD Dollars.

Personally I like AXS but I would probably not invest my own money in it just yet.
2983  Economy / Gambling / Re: FORTUNEJACK.COM |Deposit 777 play with 1777 mBTC |Live Casino, Slots, Betting on: March 25, 2022, 11:45:19 AM
Going through the KYC is not a big problem in itself. And in the case of freeing bonuses, it also seems realistic to me that Fortunejack asks for verification, especially because it concerns free spins. Otherwise, it would be very easy to create different accounts via a VPN or similar technology and thus convert free spins into money. This is then covered with the KYC. It's nice that Fortunejack gives away free spins, better than a deposit bonus in my opinion.

I can agree on the whole of this post. KYC does seem intimidating but when its demanded from a trustworthy gambling platform like Fortunejack, then I think its a much better alternative than to doing KYC on some other, new and unexperienced casino.

Free spins can still win money, and the flow of money is what is regulated, not the registration of an account itself. I would advice against using VPNs, they can be detected and you might encounter problems with VPN-unfriendly platforms in the future.

KYC in itself is supposed to protect the casino legally, because it needs to follow regulations and it also protects the client/customer/player legally, in case there is a problem you can always prove the money is connected to your person.
2984  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: "Russia May Accept Bitcoin for Gas Exports, Lawmaker Says" on: March 25, 2022, 11:36:21 AM
     This just shows that the Russian government is really getting worried about the sanctions. Although I cannot say for sure up to what extent, it does pose a threat to Russia and so they are looking for other alternatives to protect their economy.

     The word "MAY" should be taken into account though to avoid being mislead. Clearly, this is not an easy decision and they are still considering this course of action. But regardless, this is good for bitcoin and this industry since it gives more positive publicity to bitcoin.

 - What do you think? Will they really proceed? If so, when do you think it'll be implemented?


(Have a great day everyone!)


Source : https://news.bitcoin.com/russia-may-accept-bitcoin-for-gas-exports-lawmaker-says/



I consider the word may the same thing as "up to". As in "save up to" or "up to 100 MB/s internet". Its a legal way of not giving you anything but making it sound like they still gave you something. Basically a marketing word.

So if Russia is saying it may do something, then its really nothing to get excited about and its 99.% just a news article that greatly blows something out of proportion just to get people to read their article.

In other words, no, I doubt they will implement Gas for BTC. Although it would be a good idea.
2985  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Crypto.com as Sponsor's for FIFA World Cup on: March 25, 2022, 04:21:01 AM
Sponsoring FIFA World Cup is big publicity for crypto. comas this will make the advert go live on FIFA Billboard, the company have gone all out for promotion since its inception, and they're not relenting at all. This is a big plus for the entire cryptocurrency community.

Not only that but it is a big publicity for Crypto in general, not only crypto.com. Although I cannot imagine even crypto.com being able to get such a huge marketing deal with FIFA. I am very surprised and I wonder how they managed to pull FIFA into the world of crypto. I am guessing it might have been good networking efforts.

I think we will see more gambling platform investments coming in from this. We might get FIFA itself interested in the world of crypto gambling! I see nothing but good news for the future!
2986  Economy / Gambling / Re: Gambling Sites on: March 24, 2022, 08:09:13 PM
Please! Is there any gambling site that I can easily sign up? I tried Gamdom.com but it is not opening either it is only loading since morning...so, I need a site that I can access easily.

I just checked right now and it would seem to me that gamdom.com is up and running perfectly. I am not sure why it does not work for you. Perhaps you have some kind of internet restriction to gambling websites in your country? Although if you do, I would not recommend trying to bypass it with a vpn since your account might get banned that way and you would still need to do KYC in most gambling sites.

You can try out Roobit, Rollbet, Fortunejack, basically any and almost all gambling sites are easy to sign up on. But if you can access them depends on your countries restrictions.

That was my conclusion as well, if everyone can reach a website except yourself then it is obvious the error is in your end and not with the casino, also it is a bad idea to use a VPN in any casino as most of them have restrictions about the locations from which you are allowed to play and if you try to deceive the customer service by trying to make it seem as if you live in another country then if you are hit with a KC request it will be impossible for you to pass it.

I have a certain feeling in my gut that tells me that sooner or later, the online gambling casinos definitely do a "surprise KYC", I am sure that they all have an algorithm, so that after a random amount of time or after you have won a large enough winning, they spring that KYC on you. That way, they can market their gambling platform as "NON KYC" while not having to break any regulations.

And as you say, if they catch the right person, they get to freeze their funds. Win win for them.

I have yet to see a single casino waiver their KYC rights.
2987  Economy / Economics / Re: Regulation seem like the only option left on: March 23, 2022, 07:13:09 PM
Will there ever come a time that the government reaction to crypto will be encouraging for the people? Lately the head if international monetary fund Christine lagarde stated that regulatory action from the international community on crypto is inevitable ..what do you think

You need to start thinking more positive. I understand that the government is imposing and scary and will do their outright best to scare people into a neat line. But the truth is, Bitcoin is not something they will ever be able to regulate. Not entirely. They can regulate centralised businesses and exchanges that work with Bitcoin. They can easily do that. But centralised platforms are the wrong way to go. Always remember: Not your keys, not your coins. Keep your coins away from your identity and third party wallets. And be sure to keep good OPSEC.

That way, nobody can find out about or control the Bitcoins in your wallet.
2988  Economy / Economics / Re: Ukraine has legalized the cryptosector on: March 23, 2022, 02:38:10 PM
Why do I have this feeling that governments are clowns, it is not limited to any country, they are all the same. The legal proceedings came in when they were on the hot seat, what happen to the process before they were invaded by the Russians. Ukraine was largely donated to by the Bitcoin community, it is time others should follow the legal preparation of Bitcoin before it is too late. I hope Zelensky doesn't change his mind about those bitcoins donated, I trust no government when they sit on their chairs.
at least they understand the use of bitcoin in the current situation, until finally they can do more after the war is over, and don't forget bitcoin services. but we can only hope, of course they will only calculate the profit and loss. but indirectly it is at times like this that bitcoin has more value and has proven usefulness, so that everyone can judge it because the development of the times is inevitable
Unfortunately governments will only understand the brilliance of bitcoin and crypto only after it is too late for them. If Ukraine did this way before the war started, they could have gathered so much more taxes. Imagine if they did this 5 years ago, and promoted themselves as crypto capital of Europe? They would have gathered billions of dollars from taxes and could be spent to get a lot more drones and weapons and armor.

In any case, they are at least doing fine right now and they have seen the beauty of it, Russia is slowly getting it as well and they are using it too, so both sides have realized why bitcoin could be great for them all.

I think you might be overestimating how much money they "could have made" with Bitcoin. In fact you are severly underestimating the amount of money countries deal with. A few billion is just a drop of water on the hot pan. In the end, it won't have as great of an effect as you think. Yes, they could have bought weapons with that money, but not enough to make a significant difference.

But you are right in saying they should have adopted Bitcoin a long time ago. It would have definitely benefited their economy.

A Lynnwood man won a $2.4 million jackpot this weekend, the largest slot machine win at any casino in state history.

Jose Lopez, of Lynnwood, won $2,369,748.95 shortly after midnight on March 20 at the Tulalip Resort Casino.

The $2.4 million jackpot shattered the previous jackpot record of $1,101,976.12.

Lopez, a self-employed painter, was urged by his girlfriend to play the Golden Charms progressive slot machine.
Source.

Trivia:
  • So lucky he has "holy" girlfriend who told him to play slots Grin
  • This grand jackpot previous win is dated Februari 8, 2020, so it's more than two years of waiting until the jackpot triggered again.
  • To participate, simply play with $5/spin
  • He won 473,949.79x multiplier!


Golden Charms slot machine

What do you think? Dare to play $5/spin in a slot with more than 400k max-win? For me, I'd stick to 5,000x max-win Cheesy
FYI DOA 2 only has 111,111x max-win, and it's so tough.

Wow, a winning over $ 2.3 million USD only by playing slots? Thats really something! Although if thats a $5 slot machine then I do wonder how much money you would have lost over the years of playing just to get to that point? the article says Lopez frequents the casino and had previously won $20,000, but on a different machine. I doubt that he hasn't been doing this for years. Still, a win is a win. Congrats to him and his girlfriend! Hope their relationship does not detoriate because of the money.

I myself would never play $5 USD slots though. Roll Eyes

For some reason I always thought that when well be facing world-wide food crisis and Biden talking about new world order, BTC would be worth many millions, yet here we are. Guess i'll have to wait few years months weeks days hours? more

Why does America want to rule the world so much? They can't even provide basic affordable healthcare and decent education for their own people, purely out of greed and corruption.
2992  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Occupational hazards of trading crypto on: March 22, 2022, 05:38:10 PM


The very first long-term occupational hazard i can think of is the development of High blood pressure...

What can you add to the list of dangers associated with making crypto trading a full time occupation?





I can completely agree with the notion of trading crypto, crypto derivitives or any stocks even, can and will cause high blood pressure. This furthermore can lead to strokes, heart attacks and other serious issues. Too many people treat trading like gambling. So you could say that the same health issues, including addiction and depression, which effects gamblers also are the same conditions which effect traders.

Basically, don't trade with a bad heart and a bad state of mind...

After knocking out Tyron Woodley, Jake Paul has proven himself to be a force that is not to be underestimated. McGregor has been on a losing side after getting absolutely destroyed by Dustin Poirier. So, I have been feeling a bit less confident about Conors fighting abilities as of late. But I would love to see a fight with Jake Paul against Conor McGregor. So, do I think if the fight is going to happen? Definitely.  I am not the only one hoping for this fight. A lot of people are.

Regarding your promise to go away if the trendline is not touched.... many of us have heard those kinds of vacuous promises from disingenuine troll twats in the past.. and they are not always true to their promise.. but sometimes they do end up going away.. just because their track record is just filled with so much incredible ridiculous bullshit that they end up losing any kind of meaningful credibility... so I will believe it when I see it.. hard to prove a negative.. right?

One of my friends suddenly sent me a picture that showed a Mosque that they wanted to rebuild or infrastructure development, whether I want to participate in the donation or help them reach more people to get a donation. I see the details and have a conversation with that friend about their plans. I contact some of my other friends and cousins about the matter. Many of them are agreed to respond.

Why don't I open a Bitcoin donation campaign to reach more people? I know many peoples who work in the crypto industry. They also can donate here.
This thread never suggests you donate here or somewhere else with your cryptos. I want to remind you how we can implement Bitcoin or other Altcoins in our daily life. We can use the crypto industry in every possible way in our life. It'll open new doors of opportunities.

I think donation with Bitcoin is the best way to donate, really. That way you can follow where the Bitcoin goes. You can track the entire blockchain and the path your donation takes. I am sure there are many good and trustworthy donation projects, however, as history has shown, there is absolutely no use in trusting humans. No matter how good the cause, there will always be people who want to take advantage of the money.

With blockchain there is no need for trust. We verify.
