3081  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How about the idea of decentralized stablecoin on: September 06, 2020, 06:19:00 AM
Inherently impossible. How could you manage to make your money come to your bank account if you want to turn your stable coin to fiat? I mean you need a place that is keeping it at that value, without that centralized place keeping it at that value who would keep it at there? Think about it, right now Tether company is giving everyone 1 dollar per USDT they are giving them, it is a big success so there is more people wanting more USDT from them compared to people who wants to sell their USDT back for fiat, which is why it is such a huge thing.

However if you create a new USDT type thing and there is no central organization, who will give 1 dollar for it? Nobody. You would expect the public to do it for you? That is not possible and that is why there is no such thing as decentralized stablecoin.

8.1.2. On Sportsbook Services You have to make at least one bet with minimum stake of 50% of Your deposit amount (example: if Your deposit amount is equivalent to EUR 100, You have to bet minimum EUR 50 on any position You can select on Sportsbook Services);

Please explain this rule? I have to do 1 bet minimum with 50% deposit amount or is it like I have to do roll over 0.5x and can do with 1 bet or many bet with any amount of bet before withdrawal?

I was going to register today but after reading this rule here, I stopped for now, and will wait for clarification from Fortunejack team and do sign up after that.

If it is like I have to roll over 0.5x before withdrawal than better change language of that rule. It's really confusing.
You can do any of the two, you could put half of your deposit in one bet or place several bets with small amounts.

You should be able to withdraw as long as you manage to wager half of your deposit.

So what I know I have done this, first made a deposit, continued to place a small bet so there is no need to bet 50% of the total deposit and I am sure it will doubt you, but for withdrawal without betting it takes 24 hours to process because security is very tight but if you've ever gambled then the process is quick.

I think a small bet is enough if you are constrained by a bet that must be 50% of the deposit amount, will that be a burden for you?
I do not think that is too much to ask, you have to just wager half of what you deposited, if you are not going to even do that, why would you deposit at all? Think of it as a way they making you to gamble obviously, but think of it also as a way that they would make money from all the things they are offering from depositing to gambling to withdrawing, that is a service you are using as well as a casino.

So, 50% of what you deposited is not really too much to ask. Obviously if you deposited 100k for some rich reasons, you need to wager 50k which is really too much and I would understand why you would want to not do that, but even if you are that rich, I wouldn't suggest putting up all the money upfront and gamble later, put up small deposits first.

Honestly it is a great point to just gamble on Miami from now on. I know they might lose the next game, and who knows maybe one more game but martingale the hell out of it and you are going to make a profit.

I don't know which game will be their last victory but I know Miami is moving to next round and that means gamble as much as you want on the next game and by some miracle Bucks wins? Just double or even quadruple that bet on the next game, Bucks manages to snatch another? Go even higher from the second bet, do not be shy about it because it is 100% guaranteed that Bucks is not getting back from 3-0 to 3-4, that is not happening. Obviously coming from 3-1 down was a rare thing and happened very rarely, but at the same time 3-0 comeback has never happened ever as well.
3084  Economy / Economics / Re: Remote Working and Inequality on: September 05, 2020, 11:25:22 AM
Obviously not for people like coders and such, but for people that could be replaced easier, think about call operators, if you have that type of work they could give you the equipment you need and you can do it at home and fill a quota and just get paid under minimum salary according to them.
Coding world has changed to remote work a lot, it is in fact the highest rated freelance job in the world, if you know how to code well and if you could market yourself very well, not only you can find jobs but people forget that there are jobs that require you to be constantly working, they basically hire you but just as a freelancer instead of full time, so you can work anywhere in the world as long as you do your job, it was a thing way before the pandemic.

Now people realize there are tons of jobs that could be done at home, technology improved the world a lot and since we have enough tech to work at home, we could literally do whatever we want from home. Few jobs are still require to go outside, that will never end but I do not think that anything should be changing just because some people can work from home, if they are still doing the work, they should still be paid same.
3085  Economy / Economics / Re: US economy will continue to recover - Powell on: September 05, 2020, 08:23:12 AM
USA has been in a downward spiral since Trump get to power, they have been getting worse and worse with all the tax breaks to rich and not paying their fair share and basically all around a land where you are either rich or you are not cared about.

If you are making more than a million dollars a year, USA is a great country, it is the best country to live in, I would prefer no other nation in the whole world for a rich person. However if you are making under 100k a year (which is really a lot compared to other nations interestingly) you are barely surviving because how everything in the world costs you a ton of money.

At one point someone joked about how you could fly to Spain, get a hip surgery, run with the bulls, get injured, get another hip surgery and fly back to USA and it would be cheaper than having one hip surgery in USA. Think of USA as a rich men world.
3086  Economy / Economics / Re: Will bailouts become more frequent? on: September 04, 2020, 08:17:57 AM
It would be very sad for the world economy that bailouts became more frequent already.

If you ask me the best thing about the current situation of our economy is the fact that rich can't get any more richer, they can try but the more they try the more economy will fail, there is a limited amount of wealth that you can have and after that there are no more customers and when those wealthy people do not have customers they will get poorer and poorer.

Do you know why people like Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg and Bill Gates are top people? Jeff sells cheap stuff to you and sends directly to home versus going to a shop and buying for more expensive, Mark doesn't charge the user anything and Bill has almost all the computer market, so at the end of the day we are talking about some wealthy people who are not a "must" product creators getting lesser and lesser money.
3087  Economy / Gambling / Re: Stake.com - Casino & Sportsbook - Lamborghini Giveaway! 🚀 🎰 🏀 ⚾ 🏈 🎾 🥊 🎲 on: September 03, 2020, 07:45:41 PM
so the +$50k raffle it was for 50 users right? well then i think i should aim for the lamborgini i hope i'll be the one who will be picked in december and by january i'll make a stroll on it also its great i could wager on sports betting too i thought wagering will only count on casinos.

https://promotions.stake.com/lambo-50k-raffle/
This link tells you all about the raffle, everyone is hoping to win the Lambo no matter how many raffle tickets they owns at the time when the draw will be done. But we should not hope that much if we have low number of tickets, just hope for the best luck. I'm quite sure there will be more than a million earned tickets as for now probably there are more than 300k earned tickets already. I saw someone said that his last tickets is at #290k, while there are more than 100 days to go so it is very possible that we will see millions tickets at the drawing time.
The funny thing is, I remember clearly when first things got started like race and challenges and all that, and one day we saw that there was this funny situation where first one (I mean winner) wagered like 190 bitcoins while second one had 4 and third had 0.8 or so, so I quickly realized some people are not in it for the lottery or raffle or competition or whatever it is going on at that moment, if that winner wanted to win only and that is it, they would have stopped at 5, or even 10 if they want, he went to 190 bitcoin because he was just gambling for fun and that was it, didn't cared about anything else.

So, this Lambo thing is the same, some people will gamble without thinking about Lambo, they will gamble just for gambling sake, you just gotta do your best and not worry about others.
3088  Other / Off-topic / Re: It's time to destroy China,don't buy anything from them ,don't deal with them on: September 03, 2020, 03:36:58 PM
Well, it is not you and me that can decide that, companies are working with China, even governments work with china, who do you think provided the first test kits for corona virus? Even the health and life matters are from China. So, after all of that, I can clearly tell you that china is not growing any smaller any time soon. It is a big irony in the world that the biggest capitalists of the world need the biggest communist country in the world to make it work for both of them.

Capitalists have the money but they want to profit as much as they can with as cheap of a labor as they can find which makes China a great destination for cheap labor, also China is communist so life there sucks for basically everyone except a few powerful person, so they all use their pros and cons and help each other out.
3089  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it time to think of cash and bank deposits as different currencies? on: September 03, 2020, 02:36:29 PM
They have been different things for the past 40 or so years and never been the same thing. Obviously speaking they haven't been the same thing a lot longer before technology caught up as well since the first time banks were a thing or even a treasure was a thing, but it became a lot more professional and legal in the past 40 years. After 80's banks and similar places realized that they could take cash and they could leverage it up a ton more than what they have, they have done it.

So, if you think that cash in your hands is more powerful than the money in the bank, you are 100% right. Plus think of all the rich people, Jeff Bezos said to have 200 billion worth for example, do you think he has 200 billion dollars on bank account? No. He doesn't even have that, he has assets worth that much let alone cash itself. So, there are layers to it too.
3090  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is it alright to invest with bitcoin at the current market price? on: September 03, 2020, 01:52:26 PM
I would say as long as you change your perspective of the regular economy, you are already ahead of billions of people and you do not even need to invest to get ahead. You just need to realize that bitcoin is a way out, that is one way out and there are other ways out as well but you gotta realize you have to get out.

Regular economy with stock markets and all the stuff like that actually hurts you, these are built to make the rich richer and poor poorer and it will always be like that, as long as you do not understand that, you will be a slave to CEO's of companies and all you will make is enough to live, you think slaves 2000+ years ago didn't have enough food? You are just a slave like them with netflix and that is about it, a modern slave if you will. Bitcoin can get you out of that.
3091  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Cryptocurrency trading platform on: September 03, 2020, 01:14:08 PM
I love it here, dude didn't made any sense on his question, nobody fully understood what he was asking, after that people just assumed what he wanted to ask, someone responded depending on what they understood and everyone following that just answered like that and that's it, we have now a page full of people responding to what they understood and not the real thing, everyone could be answering wrong.

If you really ask me dude probably wanted to ask centralized and dex and wanted to see which one is better and which one is more secure, the same old question of "would you trade on cex or dex" which is not really shocking, because dex is getting a lot more attention these days, but I still think places like Binance is much much better, they are just too ahead of the curve for the Dex ones to reach them.
3092  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What I think will be the top cryptocurrencies in 2021 on: September 02, 2020, 05:48:34 PM
There are tons of other coins out there that could make people a lot of money but people are afraid of telling people what to buy aside from the big ones and the ones they shill for. It is not wrong to shill for a coin because that means you like it, and there is nothing wrong with liking a coin. I would say that Idena is missing there, that is one of the coins that I probably shill even though I have zero of it, I just like it as the idea but I am personally not getting into it, it takes time and effort to actually be part of it and there is some money to be made there but I feel like I could use that time to find another way of making money quicker.

In the end I would say everyone has their own favorites and that is alright, we have to realize that is not a big problem at all and there is enough money to go around for all of us.
3093  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Forming an investment portfolio on: September 02, 2020, 04:51:08 PM
This is a cool hiding spot for marketing or more like "shilling" something. Unfortunately people around here do not buy these type of shilling anymore, you could spam your useless stuff everywhere you want, in fact it is just the reverse, since you cannot get your own community and you cannot get people to like you and you have to spam to make it look like you are actually doing better than people think with this fake spamming, that actually hurts these made up stuff. I do not even know what they are, they are totally irrelevant to crypto world.

A real portfolio will be based on the top 10 and at worst top 20 coins mostly and would have tiny bit of like 5% invested into cool new stuff like maybe Idena or whatever, things people would know about and not things that needs to be shilled and spammed.
3094  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ethereum 2.0 delays thread on: September 02, 2020, 03:15:35 PM
We are talking about ethereum here, not blackcoin, if you think it is the same you are wrong and I mean very very wrong. Ethereum is the second ranked coin and it has a lot more pressure and a lot more relied on it, there is no way that they could actually end up with anything quick to make it work right away and just fix things along the way, it is not like that and I would assume that people would have to actually follow them around to make sure their things (dapps and new coins and all that) do not get broken as well.

So, etheruem is taking time, sure it shouldn't have been 1300 days late but it is getting closer and they are not saying like they will do it now, they already said that it will be 2021 so it is not really late, it is just postponed, not like they work on it and will publish any day now, we know it is postponed so we just gotta wait around and see.
3095  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [Guide] Best Altcoins to Invest in 2020 on: September 02, 2020, 10:18:35 AM
I never saw anything like this before, I think this is the first time in bitcointalk history that I can agree with a whole portfolio that was suggested, it is actually quite good and I would say that I would 100% spend money on buying this as a whole portfolio offer as well.

Of course it depends on how much of which one you will buy, and I assume bitcoin is given and that is why it is not there because just altcoins are not really the way to go in my mind, I always keep a big portion of bitcoin with me, but aside from that, these are some awesome crypto, I know them all and I would like to own them all. Obviously I am not rich so right now I am focusing on having enough bitcoin and ethereum to begin with, but over time when I feel I have enough of them I will probably start buying these.

The website has actually had many small updates over the past several months that might have amounted to a larger overall change that you may have noticed but it hasn't been much worth writing about here. Glad you noticed though Smiley. Also many of the update changes we can't post to the website since they only apply to the new version.

The V2 is still coming @perla, just some standard delays but I suspect it should be coming out in September. It's close regardless. And once that happens, among all of the other upgrades, it will have full mobile compatibility.
Oh of course I notice, believe me everyone probably noticed but they are just not around to talk about it, anyone who played here for the past year or so felt the increasing improvements in the past few months, you guys always improved your website but those small ones back to back really made it noticeable as well. Even websites pace has changed, I feel like it has been a lot faster right now and that is why I feel like I know everyone has felt it.

In any case we can't wait for V2 no matter how improved it is right now, it is just something we hyped so much already and that is why we can't just forget about it and move on, we want to see it and we want to at least have a clue about how it would look and how it would feel when we gamble on the games we are already gambling.

24 Hours Left - 3-4-5 Super Bonanza Week Ends Soon

The Super Bonanza Week ends at 23:59 UTC tomorrow. Earn 3X Golden Tickets, 4X Lottery Tickets, and 5X RP.

Play now to maximize your winnings.


I believe that not enough people realized how awesome the 3-4-5 thing was, there was a huge chance that everyone could have gotten a lot more, the fact that we got so much shows that we did more than what we used to do with this promo while others didn't do too much like they could have.

I love it when I take advantage of these, plus the reward points actually went up to 100k this week so I am super happy about it, it is money in my pocket now thanks to that, I really love it when reward points finally rack up to 100k, this is my second time ever but it really got off very fast this time around at the late stage thanks to this promo. Freebitcoin doesn't even need a promotion, they are already huge and still they manage to get a lot of promotions going anyway to help us out.
3098  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is the crypto market saturated? on: September 01, 2020, 08:14:24 PM
Is it really that bad? I mean it kind of shows that there is a bit of attention and interest as well, that is awesome. I love to see a ton of crypto and I would love to see attention towards as well, as long as people show attention I am down with it, and saturation shows that there must be some money to make from it, which is why I believe it is quite important that we should embrace it instead of reject it.

Let's have 10k+ coins, lets have a million coins, as long as people show interest to some of them, it is fine with me. Obviously not all of them gets attention but time to time some of them actually gets so much attention that it directly breaks into the top 10 as well, which is what I love about new crypto, 999 of them becomes bull shit but 1 of them becomes super awesome.
3099  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Which type of trading you think is good? on: September 01, 2020, 02:44:06 PM
Trading is not good at all to me, not any type of it, all of them are bad because first of all I am not good at it, secondly I get bored easily so I can't do something consistently. Trading requires you to be active and constantly be there, I can't deal with all the ups and downs and all the moves I have to make and all the charts I have to read, it is both a lot of work to do just for one trade but also you have to do it again for the next trade and lets say I do that for a week, for a month even for a year, if I stop I stop making money and that is the end of it.

However investing is not like that, I just put my money there and I forget about it, I literally have to do nothing about it, my job is over the moment I put my money into bitcoin, that is why I love the irresponsibility of it.
3100  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is Buy and Hold Really the Best Strategy in Crypto? on: September 01, 2020, 12:20:14 PM
There are veterans of trading and they will tell you that the amount of profit you can make from regular day trading is not even remotely close to what you can make from just buying and holding. Don't get me wrong the fact that buying and holding is profitable is true, people could make money that way and I would say it is quite the investment if you really want to do it, and nobody could argue that people wouldn't be able to make a profit.

However just because one thing is profitable doesn't mean that other one is not making profit, sure a newbie doing day trading will end up losing and someone who insists on not learning and just doing it how they want to will end up losing as well, but someone who really knows what they are doing will make ten times more than the person who buys and holds.
