That prediction will be right if people lose trust in fiat currencies and if fiat currencies continue losing value accelerated. Then we might see a notable increasement in bitcoin adoption, turning it into the main currency in the world, although volatility will be still present, unless whales lose domain by spliting the coins they currently hold among more investors' hands.

All the scenarios are totally unclear and uncertain. There are a lot of economical and social factors which will impact the future of finances in the world and the future of bitcoin as currency. 20-50 years is a very long time period to make correct assumptions. The fact is that only time will tell what the future holds for bitcoin and its adopters.

Elon Musk isn't a charity institution to give free money to Twitter's users. What you are asking isn't a stablecoin, but a welfare program which takes the wealth from Musk to be shared with the world, what is impossible to be executed for real, because even him doesn't have enough money to give 1$ million to every person alive.
Considering 7 billion of people in the world, Musk would need a patrimony of at least 7$ quadrillion to gift everyone accordingly to OP's proposal.

I assume most gamblers bet on the favorite teams with large bets to make the profit worth, and that is what proportionate underdog teams' odds to be so high. Meanwhile, gamblers betting on underdogs use less money, because the winning chances are lower and the multiplier huge. When the favorites lose, most people lose money and that is happening quite often on this championship. That is why I think Qatar World Cup is being unprofitable for most gamblers. And well, it doesn't feel confortable to bet in a championship which considered that goal from Japan against Spain legal. It makes me think they can consider legal another illegalities commited in future games. Gamblers who bet on a draw between Japan and Spain must be really pissed off.

Litecoin was an interesting option by 2016 or so, but since then I've observed it has lost popularity in crypto market for new projects that have been hyped. I think Litecoin won't be completely abandoned by crypto enthusiasts, because it's part of the early years of this industry, so people have a nostalgic feeling for LTC, but at same time I don't think it can have any important main role in the future of cryptocurrencies.

I believe this is the main reason. Since they can store their coins in exchanges or online wallets for free, hardware wallets stay in second plan, because they are expensive, especially for small investors. If they have 200$-300$, it's likely they will prefer to use this money to acquire more btcs, instead of purchasing a wallet.

In my case, I spent about 150$ in an more archaic model (Trezor One) years ago, but I just did that after several years of personal bitcoin adoption. Anyway, if I was going to purchase the modern hardware wallets' models I would have spent much more.

But I don't think it's hard to setup and use hardware wallet. Anyone who is able to use an online wallet or exchange won't have any difficult at a hardware one. There are so many tutorials, guides and videos disponible that the whole process becomes pretty simple.

Environment and society improve when the members of this society have high moral and financial standards. Important to notice money isn't everything, though.

So we can say bitcoin can be helpful as investment on long term to protect patrimony against inflation and as a potential mean of payment for online jobs that weren't disponible to common people like us before the invention of bitcoin.

As we earn more money, in great part thanks to bitcoin, we have conditions to spend more money in our local societies, warming the local markets, and going for environmental-friendly products and services, since their costs are more expensive, so we need an improved income to have access to them.

Just because you have lost money gambling it doesn't mean you were scammed by the casino.

You can play at any legit casinos and still lose money, because that is how it's supposed to work on long term as the house has a slight advantage called house edge. Usually 0,5%-2%, depending the platform.

You can find many alternatives of legit casinos on this forum. Check members' signature spots and click them to access the casinos. Beware of 1xbit, though. There are many scam accusations against them.

It's sad to see nowadays every advices on how to earn crypto as a beginner consist in trading, while years ago there were another options such as faucets, bounty campaigns, signature campaigns, social media campaigns, play to earn games, micro tasks websites, casinos' giveaways... Now everything is so limited and restricted and the worst part is that trading won't guarantee profit to beginners, because they will be gambling with their funds. There is no assurance a trade will be profitable, because this market is volatile and unpredictable. So it's more like there isn't any means for a newbie to earn crypto from zero.

Try tracking the bitcoin address your friend made the deposit, so you will find the final destination of the money. If the scammer uses mixing crypto services, there is still hope. You can denounce the website or app to the police and their intelligence service can track the origins of the site owner, IP and every other details which can lead to the real identity of the scammer.

If the ponzi has social medias and other kinds of advertisements it's better yet. Without any doubts he must have left a gap on any of his accounts that could help authorities to reach "the pharaoh".

That Japan vs. Spain game was rigged. The final goal clearly wasn't valid. The ball has passed the line as we can see on the video and images on the internet. I was really cheering for Japan, but since it was a fair victory. However, I can't ignore now Germany was stolen.



And to say the truth this whole world cup's results are pretty strange. I'm not going to bet in any games and I can imagine how much money gamblers are losing with this event and how much money betting houses are making while sponsoring the sports' industry in general.

Paper money is the most efficient dealing method for criminals. If governments' goal was to curb criminal activity, they would be focusing on extinguishing paper money usage by the next decade, however, that is not the case... There could be already campaigns incentivizing digital transactions' methods, especially for people with 40+ years old, that seem to be the biggest challenge when executing the adoption of digital means, especially those at low educational levels, who didn't attend to school on their early times.

I think paper money isn't going away soon because it's interesting for public agents to have side secret deals which would be easily traced in case they were dealing through digital means, however, if there was good will and effort on this matter, paper money would be near to extinction already.

Only dice game isn't enough anymore to keep a gambling website popular. Games' diversity and more gambling categories are needed and ordered by gamblers. That is why popular platforms like Stake introduce not only traditional classic casino games, but also sports betting on their menu. So gamblers can spend more time using their services without getting bored and having to leave in order to find more games in other sites, since all they want is there in a single place, while also saving on transactions' fees, because they don't need to send money from one platform to another often.

Possibly a solution for future similiar scammy situations like we have seen recently. Developers can improve security measures of investment platforms and exchanges for customers, so when you make an investment locking your funds for x time, a collateral is sent to your wallet and remain there (also locked) until the time period of the investment expires.

In my opinion that is what should be done. Simply PoR is too little and doesn't guarantee investors are safe from being scammed anyway.

I don't buy bitcoins. I try to not spend the ones I earn from online tasks and jobs. This way I can grow my holdings for the future. I regret for not having sold my coins on the last bull run of 2021, so I could have built my patrimony by acquiring a piece of land and making it productive for a living. So I hope we have another chance in the next few years to see bitcoin rising again to the previous ATH or even higher prices ranges. If that happens, I won't waste the opportunity twice, I'm definitely going to sell my BTC, because I'm too tired of waiting and seeing my life going by without further development...

I guess there is no solution for this matter. Regulators demand KYC, casinos have no choice besides implementing KYC feature on their platforms under risk of being forbidden from operating if they do the opposite. That is how it works to have your business working legitimately, by the rules. In my opinion that is just a formality, because there are unregulated websites so trustful or even more trustful than regulated websites. And we could even mention cases of regulated services, which ask for KYC, that have already scammed their users. So, to be regulated and to ask KYC don't mean you are safe, as user.

But that is how most services currently work on the internet and we have to follow their rules strictly or give up having access to the services they offer.

Couldn't agree more. Everyone wants to earn money online in the comfort of their homes. Actually, many projects on the internet are offering this modality of earnings since the beginning of the internet. However, on the practice things work a little different and most of those offers only allow people to earn few cents of dollar for their effort doing tasks on different categories of websites.

To enlight potential interested users to your platform, could you share precisely, with details, what they can expect from "Vote to Earn" in real numbers? For each vote how much can be earned in a daily basis? What is the minimum withdrawal amount? Are there limits? And so on...

PoR is a must and a very basic obligation of every exchanges and investment platform. It shouldn't be considered a game changer or additional favour platforms are having with their customers. Transparency and honesty are basic concepts of every kinds of businesses and human relationships.

Only time is going to make users regain trust on such services. People need to see these exchanges working and delivering everything they promise, despite the negative situation of crypto market, so they can feel safe to trust their funds to these services once more.

Yes, gambling is good for fun and I want to bet again futurely. But first, I've promised to myself I have to recover the amount I lost previously before gambling again. By respecting and following this rule, I keep my gambling activity and financial life under control, otherwise I may fall in a dangerous route with very serious consequences which can take a longer time until I can stabilize my life again.

Maybe after recovering the amount I lost (through another sources of income), I start playing again, so I can revert my losses in gambling starting from a fresh new round...

I had some major losses months ago and decided to quit gambling. I could continue betting, coming back with a larger bankroll to recover losses with fast and few bets like OP is doing and displaying with his currently statistics, but I prefered to not risk anymore. Good for him that he is making awesome progress so far, however, we know it's not possible to maintain results sustainable on long run. Inevitably it becomes a snowball of unrecoverable losses after a while.

As soon as they attempt playing on credit they will be notified or spot this alternative is unavailable on gambling websites.

I think the measure is a good one, because it's useful as an extension of the initial gambling guideline of "just play with money you can afford to lose". In this case of credit cards it is "don't play with money you don't have yet".

It will help gamblers to not lose control of their finances. Only those who have credit cards with high limits rates know how tempting it is to use the credit.
