per i bitcoin persi, vi è questo topic https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=7253.0 in cui per anni (dal 2011...) gli utenti hanno riportato quelli "noti", smarriti, non più accessibili, anche in maniera diretta, in prima persona .

Una delle stime più accurate che ho letto indicava circa 2 milioni di coin persi.
In questi topic ne hanno indicati circa 140mila.

apologize the term but it's about being a little "naive".
it is obvious that in this type of game the pattern does not exist, neither in one sense (positive) nor in the other (negative).
there is only a law that on large numbers the house has a house edge to its advantage. everything else "does not exist".

thank you!

Do casinos accept the possibility of playing with a VPN in their ToS?
Couldn't they see this move as an attempt to defraud in some way?

I won't go into the specific details of 2 topics in OP but you must always know all the details and if two people in the same house use the same gambling service it is very likely that they will be reported as "fraud" by their internal systems.

Wasting savings with gambling Is a big big mistake. I don't know if its a general rule get a divorce that bad mistake (love Is blind) but for sure its not a basic issue.
I have a general rule. Gambler only with money/ values that you are ready to trash as rubbish. If you have not these...you have not Money for gambling

I have a few doubts to clarify before I can answer..
what do we define in this case as "everything"?
all the assets owned including the home or just the amount of money that was intended for gambling?

I don't know, I would get a divorce but the first case is forgivable, if there Is a good track of winning maybe can also recover it. In the second case (Lost all) a scenario like this would put the entire wealth of a family at seroous risk

here there is the video of Rublev while shout to the umpire. I can understand "disappoint" but at a certain level such errors are unbelievable. Nice achievement for Bublik that reach the final. Personally I love so much his tennis style really fun to see on the pitch.

interesting project. I would suggest some free raffle or sponsorship in order to get more people onboard.
regarding your paint I will suggest to add more "details" likewise a copy of TIMES somewhere, a laptop with a page forum/blockchain/btc value, some of your previous work on the background, a copy of coin encyclopedia, some btc poster on wall etc etc... of course not of all... mine are just suggestions

all lots: 0.0012 BTC

a debt is always a debt and of course it depends on who you owe the debt.
General rule you practically always have to pay it.
Worse still if you leave something as collateral... that's where the person who made the loan makes the biggest mistake because the collateral is always greater than the asset you receive on loan.
I find it absurd to go into debt for gamble activity, it's one of the easiest ways to have serious financial problems!

it is certain that sometime and then someone has to win "big amount" otherwise who would want to continue playing gambling?
But you need to check the real winning statistics/numbers of game played.
you would realize that it is nothing exceptional and yes... it can happen to anyone to get a big win like that

Hi please note lot 11 has already a bid of 0.0001 btc (due a mistake I haven't updated all high bids in previous post, now fixed).
Regarding this lot, you can just "remove" your bid or just add bigger amount....

there is a stigma attached to gambling in certain environments.
you will never find an un-employed person in a famous casino and vice versa you will never find a famous television man playing publicly in the bookmaker near his house. Even in gambling there are "levels".
probably the online versions have "democratized" this world since anyone can play the same platforms with different amounts.

fee di nuovo alle stelle... si è passata dalla calma piatta a una nuova tempesta....

gli emittenti di ETF negli USA stanno facendo pubblicità su tutti i mass-media (anche abbastanza "aggressiva"), ed è chiaro che non si rivolgono a squattrinati...
altri emittenti su altri mercati vorrebbero lanciare i loro ETF... i btc sugli exchange sono scarsi e molti potrebbero semplicemente decidere di non vendere perchè "non scadono", e poi... "per comprarci cosa"?

non sono un esperto finanziario, lungi da me , ma credo che ci stiamo avvicinando, anno più anno meno, al momento in cui veramente bitcoin non si potrà più acquistare con cifre "simboliche"...

you can check my post history and a specific topic I created where I track my bets
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1234109.80
... generally what you spend today is as if you are converting it into FIAT currency...
Of course there were some excessive expenses with the prices of the past (of course during the years is normal) but they were ALWAYS proportionate to the FIAT value of that moment... Of course nowadays betting with "past value" is kindly impossible since it will be done with completely different amounts.

yes, most of the time I also bet on tennis without watching the match...the only sport that I really can't bet in this way... are horse races! I must say that compared to classic bookmakers, crypto-bookmakers offer different options for following live matches.

BUMP!

Project
It was the 19th April of 2022 and Artikando had presented its first bitcoin-themed artistic work.
After a year, his second idea... arrives to public with a "special stamp" ... Cinderella! (also known as "back of the book stamps", or erinnophile).

Obviously they can be used as a stamp... in addition to the price that would be paid for a shipment, or as a "back of the book for closing a letter" --> See here the FDC! (First Day Cover)

In short, this is a limited edition collectible (20 sheets produced - 2 already reserved by authors - here the last auction). Each sheet is notched and gummed like a classic postage stamp. The proofs were prepared on card stock or A4 paper. No Gum. The mini sheets were printed on Fabriano Italian high quality paper (weight greater than A4).

What authors says?
Cryptoverse is for obvious reasons the achievement of Astrobit's beloved crypto realm.
The jump and moonwalk is where the "astronaut" takes action!
He starts to dance, "jumps because  is happy". Here in this moment he discovers the real potential of these innovations (obviously "B" is at the center, just look at the details )
Even for this work, all the drawings you will see are original and created by Artikando with a BIC pen. Yes, just a pen and fantasy! Even though this is a sales topic, we gladly accept criticism and/or advice to continuously improve ourselves!
