Create a large number of accounts in order to receive the signing up bonus and transfer it to your wallet, for example.
Fortunately, signup bonus mostly in any gambling platform cannot be transferred now, even also the deposit bonus without using or betting it first and any other terms and rules to follow. Good thing it was removed as crypto gambling industry grows and learned from other gambling website mistakes.

Such kind of statement tells you that there are lots of people still doesn't know what is bitcoin.
Anyone who says bitcoin is a scam is mostly oldies, or victims of fake news, just tell them paypal accepts bitcoin you know, so paypal is scam also?. And that 1 cent, lmao, ldk if its a joke or sarcasm, or just pure stupidity.

Well, as what you and others are expecting, it's the opposite, bitcoin still affected of the current world market especially in dollar and oil,  even though it is said to be inflation-proof. Although having bitcoin in long term will show how its said as against the inflation.

Because it is disabled in meta

The excluded sections are Meta (except for this topic), Scam Accusations, Important Announcements, and Auctions. Tagged scammers can't use this feature. You don't have to participate in self-moderated topics if you're worried about manipulation by the OP.

So it's the nearest explanation why the self moderation feature is disabled or disappeared when the thread move here in meta.

I cannot help but think about what you said with the people just working there but from different countries. They need to contact their families for updates about this war and political issues but now they can't. They will be forced to subscribe for a VPN which will add to their monthly spending while they are there to save money for their relatives and remit more.
They can use any alternatives such as telegram and signal for encrypted messages and as long that the internet is up and can be used in Russia.

the main purpose of the sanctions is to force the Russian people to cancel their support for Putin. all the restrictions so far have been aimed at them.
Many of them did protest coz they are the most affected, but reported that their government "arrests" anyone who participates this kind of activity so they are really in difficult times now risking their lives in the hands of their government.

i am in need for such developer that create such, but does it run like the normal non smart contract dice games? are there any examples ?
I didn't see any examples yet but having such kind of system for gambling will be a fully dependent to the token/coin as means of payment which will give a disadvantage to a pro bitcoin or other major cryptocurrency used in gambling deposits.
No matter what blockchain it uses, playing there will always be costly in the long run IMO.
3047  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin and her sisters: Why do most governments hate her? on: March 05, 2022, 06:40:53 PM
if the government has its own coin , they will control everything when the price goes up and when the price goes down and of course the people will always experience material / financial losses , and only benefit the government . I think it's enough that the government regulates taxes, not crypto too
If that so, no one will gonna try to trade on that coin, it will be pushed down and become shit coin later on. Government-related coin should always be backed/pegged digitally of its local currency or CBDC nothing else coz what I said will happen.

I don't think the government hate crypto or btc per say, they just don't like the simple fact that this particular technology is out their control, government is all about control and anything outside that jurisdiction is not acceptable to them
That's why they hate it coz its already widely used a currency, millions or billions of USD transfers done everyday yet they can't do something to control it or to monitor it and make profit/tax of it.
3048  Economy / Gambling / Re: Join a collective boycott of all Russian gambling platforms on: March 05, 2022, 06:23:08 PM
It's best to consider sanctions that screw Putin and cause minimal damage to the Russian public.
Unfortunately, only putin being sanctioned don't matter at all, it always be "Russia" it's government and unfortunately, its people. Normal citizens struggle the most because the war they didn't want, (obviously they're against it, affects their daily lives. But ofc ukranians struggle the most but its same story with different approach.

About the boycotts because of war, I'll be neutral for this, I see no reason to boycott these companies, unless they're a government-owned, they are also victims here, nobody wants war.

To all replies above of not understanding the language, google translate is free you know.

For both parties who exchange negative ratings, seems you both misuse the purpose of the trust system, and I seconded the reply above, this seems not a bannable offense, unless admins change it's mind related to this and apply a new rule which I don't think they will do.
3050  Economy / Economics / Re: More destruction of Ukraine territory and economy going on on: March 05, 2022, 05:24:59 PM
Zelensky and his people are just fighting for their own freedom, so I can understand that even if they are in the losing end, they will fight up until they die. They want to defend their country and no one is significantly helping them on this war. It is like a solo-man battle over a giant. We don't know what is going to happen to Ukraine if this continues, but definitely, the destruction will always be part of the aftermath. Can they gain freedom after this? If nothing else, the respect among Ukranians will be there as they defend their country from their invader up to the last drop of their blood.
They're not just fighting, they're on the suicide path, not just their lives but the significant infrastructures on the country, its economy and everything will start at zero after war if it last longer.

Surrender is not an option at all, [...] Talking about destruction, war is all about destruction,
You should stop playing games, war is not a game where you just play to fight and to die, respawn then repeat. And don't just talk about destruction is just normal and easy just because its war when there are lots of ways to prevent it to happen.

even if Ukraine surrenders today there will be some other neighbouring country of Russia under attack you cannot just expect Russia to be silent after this.
When you become a fortune teller? If the war stops in ukraine, escalating war in neighboring country can be avoided. Also don't assume just because it's "Russia" or "China" where the "West" is "Good" and it's enemy is the "Bad".
3051  Economy / Economics / Re: More destruction of Ukraine territory and economy going on on: March 04, 2022, 08:58:11 PM
In diplomacy, they want to look like the victims here who are just defending their territory so that if the battle escalates somehow they have favoritism on the international stage
Still caring on how others opinion/look into them at such time? That's nonsense, as the state leader he should think how his government can stop the war, to avoid more damage, and losing its people.
He should know when to stop and surrender if you can't win a war. If this war lasts longer, imagine how ukraine will become. It takes lots of years to recover from a war, building its infras, gaining growth to its economy where all business stopped, destroyed, lack of supplies etc.

exchangers knows that if they f..k up with one customer they will lose reputation and if the losses getting bigger some people going to very unhappy
Tell that to every exchanges coz they usually do it that you could imagine.

Maybe u dont care about if someone will steal from u ...
What kind of brain someone's have with such statement.

You talk like you came from a religious sectors, and imagining things that all kinda every people will do good. Though its good to hear that, but you should face reality.

Stablecoins being safe haven is just for crypto volatility nothing else. Talking about freedom in stablecoins, you cannot have freedom if the company behind thee stablecoins go bankrupt, freeze your holdings, their banks go bankrupt and etc.
3053  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Bitcoin Family on: March 04, 2022, 08:14:13 PM
What a brave and a goal-driven family. Imagine selling all out in 2016, which BTC price were just $500, though the price keep increasing year by year, I wonder how they struggle to adjust their daily lives, their trading strategy, their ups and downs.

Would be good if they have something like diary of their lives, or vlog in the modern days. Kudos, big respect to the family Smiley
3054  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Usdt is safeheaven and usdc on: March 04, 2022, 07:52:54 PM
Think about one issue if someone will get hurt in binance?
It will lose all customers one day so ezchangers dont want to lose customers for sure.
Hurt by what? by freezing their accounts or freezing user's stablecoins? They will do it without exception if you are an odd fish, yet they still have many customers.

Before making decisions and making opinions regarding stablecoins and being a safe heaven, try to research more about stablecoins, its risks and its relation to freedom, because it all contradicts of what you're saying.
3055  Other / Archival / Re: [LIST] Exchanges supporting Ukraine on: March 04, 2022, 07:40:12 PM
Binance was initially requested to freeze Russian accounts in their platform, which they denied to do so (thankfully).
It is much better to support Ukraine by donating directly, like Binance did, than by freezing Russian civilians crypto.

As far as I understand, not one famous crypto exchange has yet taken such a step, even American Coinbase. There are reports of blocking ru-users by Ukrainian exchanges (Kuna, BTC-Alpha, etc), as well as selective bans of Russian users by such an American exchange as Bittrex.

But in general, exchanges remain loyal to Russian clients.
Idk why they should do that or any services would do, russians, mostly civilians are also victims of the war. The actions of their government should not be used as reasons to blame them and push them to the edge, no one wants war, only their state leaders.
3056  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Be Cautious and take Caution. on: March 03, 2022, 04:46:32 PM
I guess this will be different scenario unlike sending bitcoin/crpyto to a scam giveaway where greediness is more involve than just donating since people are promised that their coins will be doubled which will give excitements.

I know more people will be keen to this same like donating to a non crypto related donations. So it's fine to assume, at least for me, that people will be more careful this time. Well, if they don't, it's their money to begin with.
3057  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The digital perfection of Bitcoin on: March 03, 2022, 04:39:05 PM
Regarding the problem of delays and long transaction confirmations, it has been resolved by using the lightning bitcoin network and transactions are carried out quickly and at lower costs.
No, not yet, I know there lots of solution will be proposed in the future to improve the technology of the lightning network we have today.

Also, making lightning network more user-friendly so more users understand easier it and do the transactions there instead on the common wallets.
3058  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Steam removed bitcoin because half of transactions were fraudulent on: March 02, 2022, 11:26:36 PM
Yes, they were actually accepting 0 confirmations transactions at some point.
I search a bit and saw some articles about the issue on steam and yes they do accept bitcoin with 0 confirmation which is a mistake accepting bitcoin without knowing about double spend.

For Steam/Valve technically being a business in the technology sector, and knowing that Steam/Valve wasn't some small crappy business back then, that's such an amateur mistake lmao.
Plus, considering they have these professional team with lots of knowledge even a simple research on how to make bitcoin transaction secure will give them idea that this idea will make their business a hard time. And its a shock its one of the reasons why they stop accepting bitcoin.
3059  Economy / Gambling / Re: Owl.games Web 3.0 Crypto Casino & Sportsbook - BTC-Metamask-Walletconnect on: March 01, 2022, 11:36:53 AM
Good information, but the thing is, when I select "standard" for gwei, 11% for slipage (as mentioned above as recommended slippage >10). I see the "Minimum received" cut almost -10$ worth if I'm going to swap OWL > BUSD > BNB. Although I tried it. But I still can't move to this cycle of "Confirm swap" then "Price Updated". Just nothing happens.
You don't have to go through BUSD.

You can swap it directly from OWL > BNB and that will save you the fee for the one transaction that you have to do. IIRC, the fee that I've paid for that swap was 0.002 bnb.

Somewhere around that price or even lower as the price updates and that's not that much to me.
That's what I did actually in the first place, I can't remember the term but there's something route you can see before you confirm swap which the route shows like OWL > BUSD > BNB. Although I can't proceed this since it only giving me nothing, no errors and just like  the cycle of clicking the "confirm swap" then updated price "accept" and nothing happes. So what I try and did is to OWL > BUSD first then BUSD > BNB and it works with lower slippage.
