It could go either way. But these are all speculations, whether the gambling wins will be kept as Bitcoin or they will be converted into fiat.
Pretty much what I said in the OP. It would be nice if the gambling casinos are releasing a comparative data of their income during pre and post halving. If they are interested, anyway.
I doubt any online crypto casino would divulge such information to the public. They will hide as many data as they can even from the authorities. Well, on my own. We cannot guarantee the security of anything that is valuable to us especially when it comes to bitcoin casinos, perhaps we may consider it as secured because of the private keys, it can also be hack since KYC is now being implemented even with casinos and once a hacker will be able to have such personal information then, --they can already use it to break any keys on your account and start to spare everything that you own.
Come again? What keys are you talking about here? |

Why only the positive feedback? Why not honest feedback? Is not it means that you are buying fake reviews for your facebook page?
It's not a review. When only the positive feedback will be asked I think it will go to untrustworthy. Better to ask honest feedback where people will post honest things that you actually have. So if there is no bad things then people will not post negative things.
I get the importance of having an honest feedback but when it comes to social media, it doesn't really matter if it's positive/negative. People will still criticize and bash you for paying users to comment. ~ I don't also think if there's someone will do that for just $0.3 cents.
Especially for 100 comments/feedback 
OP, move your thread to the Altcoins marketplace since you are paying in eth. |

I voted yes and am pleasantly surprised it's the overwhelming majority. I doubt it would have been 15 to 2 in 2016 when I first came.
~
Probably because none of the "casual bitcoiners" joined the poll. I also voted Yes. Call me a bandwagoner If I am sending btc through a wallet that connects to the Bitcoin network, I am using it. |

They're both taunting each other. Francis is definitely confident because it's his natural weight class and he knows he can knock out anyone. I don't know what's really gotten into Jones lately. He talked about moving up before but I wasn't expecting it this soon. Maybe he's bored at the LHW contenders? He sees more challenge from HW fighters since he's that competitive? Or maybe he thinks he'll get more $ from his HW bouts? |

~ and idk why everyone wants to overcomplicate things and try to pin the event into somewhere else.
Exactly. I guess the main reason for hard selling the bitcoin halving to "traditional" online gamblers is promoting a certain bitcoin casino. I personally do not like these kinds of marketing. This is almost the same as hyping the non-bitcoiners to buy out of FOMO. |

Honestly, not with the halving but are these online gamblers (literally a gambler outside crypto) really interested to try bitcoin itself?
As we all know, the adoption is still, no doubt, not that big so before these gamblers will shift into bitcoin, the first thing they will ask is "what is bitcoin". They will set aside the halving thing, the moon thing, the rocket thing, etc.
I can't back this up with concrete data but we can safely assume that Bitcoin has become more and more popular in the gambling industry since 10+ years ago. Those listed things in the article are general information about why people should use bitcoin, not just in gambling. But seriously, even with all these positive views, there are people who will stick playing on fiat online casinos compare to crypto casinos.
One thing that the writer failed to point out because he/she is selling the halving too hard is that it is "easier" to make Bitcoin deposits for legit gamblers to online casinos compared to fiat especially for countries with strict regulations. Depositing fiats using banks, paypal, and other cards also means these gamblers are at the mercy of third parties. Using Bitcoin and other cryptocurencies is a good work around.
I tried to transfer $50 worth of Bitcoin from one wallet and using the Green wallet to transfer and the minimum fee/gas that lets me transfer that amount was $8, think of that if you are trying to transfer on one gambling sites, I still support Bitcoin on gambling but at this point in time, it's not recommended to deposit Bitcoin to a gambling site that you are supporting.
Good point and a valid argument. |

Like what I said in another thread: With web traffic, the "Top Cryptocurrency Exchanges" clearly equates to the "Most Popular Cryptocurrency Exchanges".
If they will use average liquidity, the rankings would be a mess. There are more less 90 exchanges with more than zero liquidity but there are 341 in total. Bitmex has zero liquidity according to CMC data will be ranked 90+ but we all know it is quite popular among traders.
If you sort the rankings by average liquidity now, Bibox, Bitfinex, Huobi Global, Coinbase Pro currently outranks Binance.
No matter what Binance or CMC says, it's obvious that the recent ranking change largely favors Binance. CZ knew he and Binance will be criticized for implementing these changes but still went for it. At the end of the day, they spent millions on CMC not to make it "reputable" market data aggregator but to make Binance more popular and "more reputable". Huobi and other exchanges just have to suck it up. |

~ what do you mean by "remit"?
@ralle14 is referring to money remittance center (Abra refers to them as "Teller"). Right now, Tambunting Pawnshop is the only remittance center that's partnered with Abra. You can send these tutorials to your friend if you decide to go for Abra
If you want to explore more option, here's another: https://www.bitbit.cash/I haven't used it but from what I know, it has mobile app and web version too similar to coinsph. For some reason, I cannot access the website but I got this image  |

I just copied the title from a blog I read recently. Basically the writer provided some reasons why online gamblers would use Bitcoin gambling platforms more because of the halving. 1. Bitcoin Casinos Are Secure
When you gamble online with Bitcoin, you don’t have to share your credit card or bank details with the casino. You deposit BTC straight from your Bitcoin wallet, and when you win, you withdraw to it. The wallet doesn’t give away any details about you, and if a hacker did break into the casino, all they would see is your wallet address and transaction history. Without your private keys, they can’t do anything with your wallet address. Therefore, Bitcoin casinos are safer and more secure than fiat casinos.
2. Bitcoin is Maturing and People Sense It
After the previous two halvings, in 2012 and 2016, barely anyone had heard of Bitcoin. These days, Bitcoin is talked about in the mainstream media often, and the number of users has increased dramatically. Even CNBC hosts and Wall Street legends like Paul Tudor Jones talk about Bitcoin’s bright future. There’s a sense that Bitcoin is reaching a new level of maturity and is being accepted by people who previously dismissed it. Many BTC holders are convinced that institutions such as pension funds will soon buy and hold Bitcoin, so the price increase could be larger than anything we have seen before.
3. Bitcoin Is Changing Gambling for the Better
Bitcoin itself has forever changed money, but it has a number of knock-on effects which are positive for online gambling, too. For example, since all Bitcoin transactions are recorded on the blockchain, it is impossible for rogue casinos to steal your deposits and deny that you ever made them. Likewise, there are now Provably Fair casino games that use blockchain technology and hashing to make sure that game outcomes are truly random and honest. These innovations will clean up casino gaming and squeeze rogue operators out. 1. That should have been "Bitcoin Casinos Are More Secure". Hackers unable to access your personal wallet because they don't have the private key doesn't mean you are already safe. Remember that even some Bitcoin casinos require KYC verification now and if hackers got a hold of your personal info, you are still be a potential target especially if they found out that you hold a large sum of Bitcoins. 2. Bitcoin survived the "bubble" that's why these guys are now acknowledging Bitcoin in different capacity. 3. I read some articles saying Bitcoin worsened the illegal online gambling situation. This is probably the first one that says it actually makes online gambling better The writer went on to add why the halving is special for online gamblers: Potential Gains!He/She assumes that gamblers will hold their BTC winnings because of the potential that it will pump to $100K or to whatever price as an effect of the halving. I cannot say that I agree with that assumption. It's a bit of a stretch imo. I mean gamblers are gamblers but they are not necessarily speculators. Some gamblers are probably wiser than others in keeping their winnings but doesn't mean they will save it as Bitcoins. They could easily convert it to fiat and just deposit them into their bank accounts.

That's not possible at the moment. I don't think it would be even possible if those addresses were created from different wallet providers. If they were generated using one wallet provider like MEW for example, you can probably ask them to make it possible in the future.

Anong wallet ba ang pwede na makapag-send ng bitcoin to a multiple address kabayan?
Kailangan ba lumikha ng panibagong wallet para dito?
I'm assuming questions 1 & 2 are related. ^ With both wallets, you can send to many using only one address. Meron silang "pay to many" feature. AFAIK, wala pang mobile wallet ang kayang gumawa nito. ~
"im Token" kasi ang wallet ko sa ngayon, safe po ba ito?
There was a security breach before noong nasa beta stage pa lang yung 2.0 version. Mukhang naayos naman na nila yan at nag-launch pa sila ng bug bounty program before to find and fix other vulnerabilities. Another important thing to note is it's a closed source wallet. Kumbaga walang outside developers ang nakapag-review ng codes nila at kailangan mo na lang paniwalaan yung sasabihin ng mga IM token developers. Kung hindi ka naman concern about open/close sourced at willing ka to take the risk, pwede na siguro. Non-custodial wallet din naman siya.
Alam ko mas may karanasan sila @mk4 o @bL4nkcode pagdating sa electrum or bitcoin core. Hoping they can add more. |

Kumusta implementation ng GCQ o MECQ sa lugar niyo? The Government keeps saying that decision to lift restrictions in different areas will be based on science but in reality, it is based on economy na. If we look at the number of confirmed cases daily based on the public data, hindi naman talaga siya bumababa pero tinuloy pa din ang pag-downgrade dahil na din siguro sa recommendations ng mga Metro Manila Mayors. Hindi talaga sustainable ang ECQ in the long run. The good thing that ECQ brought though is it enabled the Government to build more facilities and increased the testing capacities (mas marami na din recoveries per day). I know the Government said we cannot afford a second wave pero tingin ko doon pa din pupunta seeing how people flocked the malls in Metro Manila after being downgraded to MECQ from posts on social media. Let's just hope na hindi na ulit ma-overwhelm ang ating healthcare. In other countries, bumabalik na ulit sila sa quarantine noong nagkaroon ng mga bagong cases at nung naging positive ulit yung mga previously recovered patients. At least 6 countries reimposed lockdown measures as new coronavirus cases flared up again |

Thanks guys, I get the simplest crypto-to-php option is still coins.ph. Really a shame the fees and conversion rate are so steep, strange there isn't any competitor now that the country is becoming more crypto friendly.
If you mean to say other apps that can easily converts Btc to Php, Abra app has that feature too. If you mean exchanges, there are already a few but not as popular unfortunately - List of live crypto exchanges in PHBy the way, forgive the off topic, what are the best avenue for conversion in PHP once in Manila as of now?
I don't know what is "best" for you since that's subjective. Check the link above and choose which one you prefer. Another option is using Bitcoin ATM - https://coinatmradar.com/city/292/bitcoin-atm-manila/ |

Instead of focusing on the content of the letter of proposal, I would rather visit the telegram groups of different bounty managers If I were you. Shoot the bounty managers a PM about your proposal and be active & helpful in their group. I think most of them prefers assistants who are dedicated and somewhat trusted. Here are some of the active bounty managers: You can find more in the bounties section. Best of luck. |
