There are plenty, we are not in a period where we only have a few anymore. This is why we are seeing so much competition with the people as well, marketing became super huge during the last 2 years or so and there are companies spending millions upon millions on it as well.

It’s not a shock to me because I always knew that eventually casinos will learn the value of bitcoin and they will come here, and the more money they started to make, the more they started to do marketing which in return got the competition do the same. We have companies with 10+ million yearly marketing budget these days, that is good enough to know where we are headed nowadays.
Yes, before there were only a few of them and got the specifics of game for each of those casinos. But this time, there are many of them that have consolidated most of its games into one casino and keeps adding more if there's a demand.
That's the progress that we see in most of the casinos today and if it's all about the reputation, you'll have the idea upon checking their threads new and old ones, you'll get to pick which suit you and have a lot of games that you want like dice + casino games + sports book.

An example is CZ, he said that you'll not be rich if you don't know how to hold. And meanwhile, he's the richest billionaire in Asia and then amassing a current loss of a total of $89B. But it's due to his portfolio is down and when the market goes up again, that will shoot him up again with billions of gains. It's okay OP, you just need to think that the current bitcoin you hold shouldn't be spent in nonsense things and if ever you come up to the point of selling to an important matter, that's still a win for you. Allocate your budget wisely, spend for your needs as a family man and then for bitcoin as an investor. Take one step at a time.

Have you guys participated here? Just comment your favorite wild animal-related slot and you'll have chance to get picked and win $20.  
REMEMBER: the animal should be a "wild" one. So I believe slots like The Dog House is not counted as one.
I have not and I've already accepted long time ago that promos are not for free. Ever since, I haven't picked even before the emergence of crypto casinos.
I saw some commented dog house but let's wait see if any of those that have said it will be picked since it's just a random picking from the Duelbits management. So far, it already had 115 retweets but aside from that everyone should look also at the daily cash drop which has the details and mechanics link that's attached on that tweet.

Not all altcoins are scams that can drop to almost zero like what happened with luna/ust recently. Also luna and ust are I think not yet accepted in many gambling sites so no need to worry though there are lots of altcoins that is accepted, that is because not all people are willing to use their bitcoin because they think it was too valuable to gamble and apart from it, bitcoin can sometimes have a higher transaction fee and slow-moving in terms of depositing and withdrawing it but these known issues in bitcoin are not felt in many altcoins.
If there is another altcoin that's widely accepted and followed the fiasco of Luna/UST then, many casinos that have it on their list will start delisting and stop supporting it.
And talking with bitcoin gambling, we all have our thoughts about spending it. Many won't think about it as they're keeping it for holds and they're okay to spend the altcoins that they have instead of bitcoin. But there goes the rich ones, they've got plenty of it and it's not a matter of problem whether they win or lose bitcoin.
3065  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Did you live through the last bear market ? If so, what did you learn ? on: May 22, 2022, 08:13:57 PM
I learn from these:
1. Nothing is gonna be rising up, there will be always certain time to crash and rop market. And this is of course experienced by the all people in crypto world
Add "nothing will rise up forever". That's the balance in the market because if it won't happen, the market won't be able to push for another high that we should all see after those corrections.

2. Never panic with crash market cauze this will only break our mental and spiritual  Grin
For experienced people, this is easy. No panicking will help you overcome the market but if you do, you're just adding fear to yourself and will make certain things that you should haven't done because of poor planning.

3. Always set the target of taking profits, because being too greedy is not wise
This is what I did but too early yet still, that's profit that I should call for and not a loss even it's very too early.

If I am single, I'd probably put my life savings into crypto and I've got my own reason for doing that. First, I'm aware of its volatility and I've experienced the highs and lows of it. Since I am single, I'll have no problems even if my portfolio goes low for bitcoin because I know that it will eventually recover. Again, this is only if I'm single but as time passes and I get to have my own family, I'll diversify it and will need to have savings for cash and as well as investments for real estate properties.
Waiting till your married before starting to have savings is like waiting for a train to start moving then you start running after it to get a lift.

Wether single or married savings is something quintessential for every human being cause hard times are unpredictable.
It's not what I mean, a person that has an obligation on his family can't go all in with his investments anymore because there's a bigger part and allocation to the needs of the family since you're already a provider although that doesn't stop him for being a saver and an investor. But if someone is single, he can go all in and all out with his crypto investments and whether he's winning or losing, it's just him that's going to be problematic if the outcome turns out to be negative and those losses can be turned into lessons and learnings while he's still at a young age.

Oh shit, I thought that Ninjaboogie leave and was not kicked when I see the news. This is very unfair and unprofessional. They should at least consider to give him a vacation and not kicked him as a respect for his lose. Team SMG sucks and I hope players will abandon this team.
Very unfair, I saw this tweet of his and it's legit. Poor SMG, now we've seen the reason why they're changing their roster from time to time. They don't consider such player that has a heart to play for them and they'll just kick and can't be with him because he's currently experiencing a real problem, a heartache. That expose' will reduce their fans if ever they still have since they've got no major achievements since when they've started competing.
Going with the ESL major, OG is doing it and just did a sweep to GG and Thunder Awaken. 3 teams remaining.
3068  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What you should do in this type of market on: May 21, 2022, 12:53:12 PM
You're right, it's the time that the market has been divided already and remains with the best of the best. Investors, newbies and oldies, get to understand that it's not the same as before.
Like those hopefuls that have became millionaires due to the pump of those projects like shiba inu and other meme coins. We can say that they're done and it's now time to move on for the better days.
3069  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🕹️ Esports 🎮 Prediction & Discussion Thread on: May 21, 2022, 09:00:39 AM
Nigma has already removed ILTW so those rumors about Sumail going to Nigma is possible. Well, if ever Sumail goes freelance, there will surely be a lot of teams that want to take him. I've remembered before when matumbaman was out of Secret, a chinese team wants to take him and willing to cover all the expenses even for translation. For topson, I've heard that he's willing to go pro again and the first team that would ever get him would be OG but related to contracts, are they going to kick bzm for him again? And to this rumor about crytallis, I've seen that guy play before and a good experiment would probably test out if he fits Team Secret's play style.

ILTW is surely not performing well on most of the Nigma matches but their main problem is their drafts same as the EG. Kuroky draft is still the same and didn't improve as time passes by while the new meta keeps changing. They are not doing creative drafts but rather use only their traditional style and comforted hero. Even if Sumail replaces ILTW on Pos1. I think the result will still be the same if they will be out drafted over and over. Only tier 2 teams are only they capable to beat considering their current status.

I'm just wondering why Miracle still sticking to this team while he has a top tier skill for his position.
Maybe it's actually the veteran got the problem and just as what they're saying, it's Kuro that should be replaced. Like what notail did, he turned into a coach and let the younger talents play for their team. Kuro should just do the same and let a new breed of talents wave their flag.
Sumail don't have a home now and he's like turning away from his main region which is the NA. I think he should just team up with his brother since he's a pos 1 player and sumail's pos 2.

Its likely that he will go there but honestly he wont fit in there unless Nigma decided to change how they play. Nigma demonstrated that in few of their recent games that they need a midlaner that would go and gank without having to farm that much so it doesnt fit how Sumail play. Honestly Topson would fit in there though but I doubt he will ever join Nigma

As for Secret's next carry, there is a huge rumour that it will Crystallis from Entity Gaming https://liquipedia.net/dota2/Crystallis

Yeah, that's one problem but like having a hash to verify the fairness of that match. Just like what we have in casinos to have it verified the provably fair for each of those bets that we make.
As for the banning policies, it won't really have a full stop for the operation of these casinos or operators. They're making a huge money and that's not going to stop them operating despite the ban. They won't let pass the big money they are earning from it.
There’s no thrill if its digital and this is the thinking of many, that’s why they continue to gamble even if its illegal. Some operator are caught for still in operation, I hope the law enforcement will do something about it because if they caught some operators most probably the bettor will start to stop playing because of being afraid to put in a jail. Yes, there’s a huge money here and its good that the government stop this one even if they are going to lose money as well, this is for the benefit of many.
I think that reason of having no thrill is because they're into intense action and seeing those roosters go in blood is what they've been used to. This is just an alternative if people have come to realize that there will be no animal that will be hurt by the likes of their gambling game.
But maybe, it's good that it's totally banned forever and there will be no amendment so that the decision remains firm and strong.
3073  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bear market every team will pump their own coin on: May 20, 2022, 09:35:11 PM
That could be the strategy for some projects that really want to pump their coins during the bear market. But do you think that they'll be able to sustain that for long? I don't think that they will. Despite they've got large budget to allocate for their own fake pump, they'll be eaten alive by bitcoin's dominance and will eventually send them back to where they are. That's what's going to happen, it's just going to be a temporal pump and still bitcoin shows who's the boss of this market.
^ The pump usually holds a week and it will not long last until after a month, probably that is the reason, they cannot hold because of the BTC dominance, the more they will hold the more they will spend funds for the fake pump which is relying upon the BTC price. However, sometimes the owner will make a trick, they will create a group that will have a pump and dump their own coin so that they will not spend a huge amount, and also, they will probably get benefit from their users once after pumping they will sell their coin.
A month of pumping is too long, this is possible only if it's for bitcoin and then it will influence the whole market. But for these altcoins, doing it alone will do for just a couple of days and I don't think they will all be good up to a week. Still these fake pumps do get a lot of investors being greedy and interested on them, that's making them intrigued because of the pump they're looking temporarily. If you've been in the market for so long, you won't get onto that trap they've setup.
3074  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will LUNA be recovered ever? on: May 20, 2022, 08:38:23 PM
Yup, and that trust is no longer with the people that have looked how good it was before. But today, not anymore.
It's completely a different situation right now and people are no longer willing to throw huge money on this. For pennies, that's what I'm seeing and that's an amount that everyone afford to lose and maybe they can hit jackpot but, they've already accepted that it's a loss for them.
It's over for Luna now, it's time to switch to other coins and start rebuilding our investment mentality, the events that happened with Luna are enough as an illustration, that going forward to start investing is no longer based on the ongoing hype, and even if it stays at Luna, not necessarily in the future will provide perfect returns, it is better to prepare investments in other potential coins
There will still be investors that would follow the hype, despite this series of dump with Luna and Ust. Still, there will be some of those that would be putting their trust in other projects that are likely as these two because they're not Luna and Ust.
The different of the investors that are aware of these projects that don't look good, they'll secure themselves buying bitcoin as their main priority investment before they throw hands to another project whether it will be good or bad.
3075  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will LUNA be recovered ever? on: May 19, 2022, 11:32:20 PM
To be honest, I wanted to buy some when it dropped to $1. But I didn't. Even if it was unsuccessful, it could have been a good try at the time. But today it went down to zero. In this market, trust means everything. Luna has completely shattered people's trust. After this time, nobody trusts Luna again. At least I wouldn't trust it. Smiley

Yeah right, most of them if not all but the majority who before support this project already move on

to find new project to invest their money, they all accept the fact that interest coming from big investors already been shifts
due to the fact that the massive dump can't no longer be controlled.

moving forward or still try to risk some spare playing with the pump and dump market movement, it's up to the investor
who can afford to lose.
It's up to everyone if they still think that there's such money on this project. Well, probably there is but it's true scalping and quick trades but having it as an investment.
I think that everyone is going to agree that it's no longer reliable and if they'll ever invest on it, they might say that it's a no and that's not going to ever be part of the conversation again.

If there are irregularities being done by its care taker, we'll know it based on the reaction of the horse. Going to the main topic about cockpit, this is more brutal gambling. It's requiring one to hurt the other to have a winner. I know this is a crazy idea but they can't make a virtual one where it's like computer generated cocks and fights so that there will be no hurting anymore for these roosters?
Most probably if they are going to invent a digital cockfighting, the house will have a huge odds for winning and some bettor don’t want this one and that’s why they keep betting on a traditional one. Even the banned made by the president there’s still news about illegal activities of these online cockfighting which I think can’t really eliminate now, if there’s a strong law regulating this most probably they wont try to gamble again. Online cockfighting has been a big issues since the pandemic started, now that its banned let’s hope that bettor will start to recover mentally for all the stress their acquired from this.

But the unfortunate event comes to these horses that sometimes they die unexpectedly, maybe from too much exhaustion and tiredness. I am not supporting this as I am with those people that just let the animals live on their habitat.

Maybe there are other reasons. The horse breed that fits for horse racing is capable to run even on the longest track allowed at horse racing. And these horses are only allowed to race 1 to 2 times per day and they will be set again for the race after a day period.

There are really unfortunate things that happened in horse racing but I doubt that was all intentional or if owners want it to happen. Or maybe someone is doing irregularities behind the shadows against their opponents which is possible to happen.

Another cons for the decentralized exchanges is that they're prone to attacks. If the developers of it don't give much attention to the security, they're being targeted by hackers.
Although in both side there's always a hacking incident but it is that not just attacks but also abuse is mostly happening in dexes.

Statically, this is not true. Just search the web and count how many CEXs have been hacked and how many DEXs have been. If you do it, don't forget to include all the data breaches with CEXs that pop up on the web from time to time.
To penetrate a CEX you need to bypass the company's systems, whereas with a DEX you need to hack each participant individually. There has also been some research published pointing out how far from perfect the CEXs are in terms of security. Sometimes on basic things.
Yes, I've realized that and said that both sides have always the hacking incidents. And what's more with the dexes are those abuses from the faulty system that they have.
As the hackers penetrate the dexes, when a bug is being found, they'll abuse it and that's one that I've read with many of those hacking incidents for the dexes.

These horses are trained in a well-developed environment. There's no way the horse owners who are putting big money here and in the end, will do some bad treatment on their horses.  Contrary to what are you saying, they will do everything to make these horses fit in the race.

You as an owner for example and spending lots of money on your horse, do you want your horse to be trained in a harsh condition? Of course, no.

How can you win if you will treat your horses badly during the preparation time?
I do agree that if you own horses, you will treat them very well so that they are in good condition before they set a race.
But the unfortunate event comes to these horses that sometimes they die unexpectedly, maybe from too much exhaustion and tiredness. I am not supporting this as I am with those people that just let the animals live on their habitat.
