3201  Economy / Economics / Re: thoughts on companies becoming too powerful? on: August 04, 2019, 03:22:08 PM
Disney has become the media giant and has been on a spending spree for the last decade buying up different ips.

Facebook has been buying up all their competition and is the dominant social media company and nothing else can compete with it.

Companies become so big and they have enormous power over us, do you think companies like this should be broken up by the government or be allowed to reign supreme?

These companies are operating in a country, where the free market is practiced, as long as it is legal and they pay the right taxes, you are allowed to expand your business, it's actually good for countries to allow this to happen because it means employment and revenue through taxes, I don't see any disadvantages, you did not specify either what's the disadvantages.
I guess he is actually looking at the disadvantage part of giving these companies too much power, because when the have too much power, they also have too much money to manipulate anything that they like which some of them would definitely affect the future of the younger ones. In my country, we have some companies like that, and when any young person tries to compete with them, they will either use the power and the money they have to cause influence that would make them not to thrive.

Look at Facebook, they started buying everything over just to have that monopoly, and after they got it, the next thing that came to their mind is to create a global currency which indirectly means they are trying to take over the financial control of the government that made them also.

I think that for my part there is no reason to express any dissatisfaction, because I do not see any problems that would prevent me from providing my passport data, especially since today there is a tendency that is aimed at legalizing cryptocurrency, but without control and  Without the provision of KYC, this is not possible.  Nevertheless, I believe that in some cases it is not necessary to provide passport data, especially in gambling, where cryptocurrency is used and I am guided by logic.
I share same view with you on this and we are probably the few that have same opinion on this KYC stuff. The truth is aside the cryptocurrency reason, the major aim of KYC which is to prevent minors from gambling and also to watch the activities of fraudsters it should be enough reason to convince anyone to agree with this policy.

I feel so terrible most times I see very young kids who should be focused on their studies, spending hours on casino site simply because there is no regulation. This is one of the reasons I still prefer gambling centers. Underage are not permitted to play and this is the reason they have all diverted to online gambling.

It will be very good, if we can all support this mission and just trust that the information we supply is safe on whatever sites we gamble and the only work we have to do is ensure to play on reputable sites.
3203  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does gambling affect your overall lifestyle? on: August 03, 2019, 06:47:26 PM
I'm interested to know on what kind of game you are playing?

I'd like to know it so I know I am sharing my opinion with people which are the same page as mine, I actually gamble in sports and I'm heavily focus on this compared to other games as this one for me gives a chance to win due to the fact that it has no house edge.
I don’t think it’s about the game but about the player, like he mentioned, it was his false decision that led to he’s mischief.  Maybe we should focus on knowing the strategy that got the guy wrecked because the fastest way to go broke in gambling is by using some unacceptable strategies.

The whole story looks very strange to me because I can imagine how a player suffered so much on a game that is meant to be fun and entertaining. It’s quite a sympathetic story I must say and if you have to advice anyone I think you should teach them to focus on gambling for fun than on getting money since this now looks like an impossibility in gambling.
3204  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Operating Online Casino -- Need License? on: August 03, 2019, 03:35:16 PM
In general, if you are talking about receiving funds for gambling, you could do it. The ending is that whether you are legitimate or not, even if you let users withdraw, you could be called illegitimate just because of the lack of license to run a casino. Imagine how much people could see your website and see that you have no license to show? Or even verification. I think Reputation is all you need to have a great image here, or even in other forums. Once that's established, you would be able to invite users and play at your site.

For me, as a gambler from time to time, I don't check for the license of the site or even the provably fair. It's because I know the reputation of the casino website and doesn't need to be checked. I trusted it by the image and reputation of it. Don't be like me, and I am somehow easy to believe in people but still skeptical.
I think experienced players do not really judge the reputation of a site by the license, players prefer to play on familiar sites even though its not licensed as long as it have testimonies from players that have played and paid. The only reason a new site might compulsorily need license is when they need investors to partner with, because no investor would like to commit money in an unlicensed site.

Again, I understand licensing a site comes with many pros and cons and one of it includes compulsory KYC regulation, this is one of the reasons why most players no longer play on licensed site but would rather choose a trusted  unlicensed casino site over a reputable but licensed and KYC demanding casino site

Market conditions greatly affect prices, no one can predict the timing of the market price of crypto assets, especially BTC, perfectly. This year, the market is predicted to rise, with many trends and new coins that will attract investors
I believe that market conditions will continue to grow. although sometimes a serious problem occurs. but that does not rule out the possibility that the crypto market will be destroyed right now. we need to know that at present the market development has been supported by investors.
That is true, problems will always arise, but the cryptocurrency technology is very strong now withstand such problem and overcome it in due time. Look at bitcoin, bitcoin has experienced so much big FUD this year that I expected to have crashed it further, but rather strengthened it.

The biggest FUD news that I saw recently is that of President Donald trump which came out on tweet to go against bitcoin, and I think that would be the first time he would be saying something negative about bitcoin, I thought that it was going to affect the price of the coin too much, but it had no much effect on it, and after then the value has been growing a little bit as usual. I dint think that there is going to be any challenge right now that bitcoin will not overcome, or the cryptocurrency industry in general.
3206  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Happy Birthday ETH on: August 01, 2019, 05:15:47 PM
It is 30 july 2015 when ETH initially was released. Everyone here might have noticed the amazing work done by ETH team. It is all there efforts that ETH stands the second coin in Crypto coin List.
I wish them a belated birthday, It has really been a great journey for Ethereum all along, although I didn’t start with them but the time I have used their technology for several purposes has really be a wonderful one, and the 4 years they have spent in the market has really been worth it because within that space of 4 years, they have also been able to help other projects develop through their smart contract.

Ethereum has made a lot of people financially successful especially during their last all-time high, many people really made money through their platform too and I am sure we still have majority of people who have invested and also going to make money through them, imagine another 4 years with Ethereum, many great projects will still be born.
3207  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Low marketcap gems with huge potential? on: July 30, 2019, 05:50:07 PM
I would say look at coins based on new tech such as Mimble Wimble.

They are still relatively low in price and once the tech is recognized, will see big jumps.
It is best not to only look at technology alone, but we have to also look at the team in charge and see if they are strong to carry out such technology successfully and to the end, we have lots of projects that has come up with technology and has not been able to see such project to the end because they lack the technical know how and the strength to follow it through.

Forget everything they write in the whitepaper, they could have gotten a very good writer to do so and also could have copied a whitepaper with such promising technology, except that you re talking about investing in projects that has already been established, and then I can agree with you on using the technology as a criteria to pick such project.
3208  Economy / Gambling / Re: Check our NEW 🔥 Vegascasino.io 🔥 with hot deposit & reload bonuses 😎 on: July 30, 2019, 05:04:49 PM
Okay this is a nice casino but with lots of bad reviews. I am seeing a lot of bad reviews about you guys plus the being inactive for a very long time. You also have bad rating on your profile, unless you're a changed person now. And I also would like to add that someone has complained that his account was banned before because he won of you guys event.

So I'm guessing that's one of the reasons you guys decided to go on a break. And as well another review is saying that your license is invalid plus you're offering pirated Novomatic games… so how do you defend against all these accusations?? Meehn… just forget it, you're a loser already.
3209  Economy / Gambling / Re: Moon3d Telegram Bonus on: July 30, 2019, 02:31:44 PM
Like seriously, whenever I see free money a lot of people are already there and I'm always seeing it late. Lolzzz…
TheThe post has been posted since 14th and that means I already missed out I guess.

By the way I don't really get that requirement that the op was talking about. What does he mean by getting up to 250 marks, does it mean that we will have to make use of their site and play and get the required marks before we are giving the free bonus? That would be quite difficult to achieve if that's what it means.
3210  Economy / Gambling / Re: BestBitcoinSlots.com | Free Games, Casino Reviews, & Slot Community News on: July 30, 2019, 01:44:54 PM
I have know about this website because I usually see it whenever I am doing research on Google search about casinos and it usually pops out. Now, I'm just seeing it in this forum. Their website is really good and they are really good at their reviews and I like the way they break it down so that people would be able to understand everything that they really have to ink about the casinos. They don't only do reviews, there are also news about casinos and other related topics in their site. Nice job.
3211  Economy / Gambling / Re: 💎X2BET.WIN💎 - Casino, Slots, Dice, Coin Flip, Rps. Play and Win!🔥🔥🔥 on: July 30, 2019, 08:57:59 AM
Okay, this website looks quite good but not different or better than most of the casinos I have seen so far.
Then I have not her question which is this - why is it that everyone that has commenting and reviewing your website are all newbies? Looks quite suspicious the only legendary forum user that commented about this post didn't even say something good about it.

So, I'm starting to think that the op is the one creating new accounts to comment on this post and convince people to think that it is a good site. That's no longer a new thing in this forum, a lot of people has been doing it and I hate it.
3212  Economy / Gambling / Re: TPLAY token is used in crypto-casino on: July 30, 2019, 07:43:14 AM
There is really no difference between the interface and what other casinos has to show . The only thing I like about this one is what they have to offer and that's really what makes the difference between this and other casinos I have been seeing .and I also like the fact that they are offering both fast deposit and fast withdrawal ,unlike some other casinos that would allow fast deposit but when it's time to withdraw they will start delaying your withdrawal , cause that pisses me off a lot. This one is really good and I might be trying out their casino some day. Nice one by the way.
3213  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to Start a Bitcoin Casino/Sports Gambling Business (Checklist) on: July 29, 2019, 06:45:36 PM
More users have stated much about the requirements for building a gambling website. Being into gambling business isn't that easy, it needs a huge investment. Some has stated it a way to profit from the naive gamblers. Every business is profit oriented, upon the same we cannot pin point this to be bad. Gamblers needs to be careful in this regard knowing the limits.
Gambling business might not be easy but highly profitable, so no matter the risk any one is taking, it would definitely be worth it in the end. The challenges you mentioned is common with every business, there’s no business that would not experience that early issues. The good thing about gambling is that despite it needs huge investment, its quite easy to get investors because many people believe it is a good business to invest in because it is very profitable.

It is impossible that everyone would own or create a gambling site but at least let’s  send a plea to the existing sites to be fair to their players because of loses is really becoming alarming. Make profit but not at the detriment of your clients. If it continues that way, I believe it will be a matter of time and there will no longer be players.
3214  Economy / Gambling / Re: ♨️🎲 WINDICE.io 🎲 Choose your lucky number 🔰 Progressive Faucet💰 Jackpots 🎁❤ on: July 29, 2019, 05:11:54 PM
This crash game is not online yet, its good to have of course and I definitely agree that they should have more and more games but unfortunately I prefer this online. Stake just recently added it as well and theirs is like bustabit where bunch of people get together and play, this is more like one person different shape of dice game.

Plus, it has no auto neither as far as I can see, I looked for it but couldn't find it, dice has auto I know that but this doesn't seem like it has auto. I know its just brandly out so I am sure with time they will add stuff to it. If they end up with online version of it where we all can play at the same time plus put auto on it then this game is all set, they wouldn't have to add anything new to it and can just focus on making another game instead.

Personally I use it to buy lottery ticket and but I've never win.
before i was as active on buying tickets same as you but i didnt also win but like you  .  now im only saving up my sats and hoping to get high rewards on the free rolls
You can still get some small lottery thanks to free rolls if I am not wrong. I am not entirely sure if that is how it works but when you do free rolls it gives you free lottery tickets as well (or at least gives me lottery tickets thanks to my affiliates) and that means you can still win very big thanks to free lottery tickets.

There has been people who won lottery with less than 100 tickets before, there has been first spots but there has been a ton of top 10 that got paid as well which means you do not have to spend any money, keep using the free roll feature and you will win both tickets and reward points which would make you earn a lot more than just the free roll.

However, they now have lambo ticket sales plus had dice for a long time plus they have betting as the newest feature, so you can do plenty of stuff both with depositing but if you want with your free roll earning as well.
3216  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: 💲💲 Stable Coins?? 💲💲 on: July 27, 2019, 07:15:35 PM
Tether would have actually been the most reliable stable coin, but there has been lots of controversies surrounding it , and this as reduced the confidence that people already have in it because of bitfiniex   being accused of over printing money that they do not have in store.

People still use tether more though, but I think most of its users are sitting on a time bomb, so if you have to use tether, just make sure that you don’t tie your fund down or put too much of fund, another stable coin that is still reliable is USDC too, but I am still quite skeptical about them until Libra stable coin is released into the market, if Facebook coin is released eventually, many of these tether coin may  really become less used, irrelevance and unable to compete with Libra.
3217  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Store of Value Coin, other than Bitcoin, which one ? on: July 27, 2019, 05:53:33 PM
Why do you think that Ethereum cannot serve as store of value, I can rely on Ethereum more than all those coins that you made mentioned of and any other coin that you have in the market other than bitcoin. In fact when it comes to a reliable payment too, Ethereum can still be trusted more, because right now, you cannot compare the volatility level of Ethereum to other coins.

Looking at a coin that is worthy to be used as store of value like the normal pure gold, it should at least have very low volatility that will make people not to suddenly wake up and see that their 1 million dollars has turned to $300K, a store of value coin should at least 90 percent of the initial value when it was bought, and then gradual decrease or increase little by little as people also trade with it, and for now, I must confess that it is only in Ethereum that I found that.
3218  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Bounties. IEOs or ICOs. on: July 27, 2019, 04:14:09 PM
There are still hundreds of bounties out there, but you have to be careful in joining any so you still dint end up adding another dormant coin to your portfolio, it is quite difficult to really recommend any project for anyone now because even the person you are asking will only shill the project to you based on assumption and nit based on assurance, but if you go to the section of this forum where you will see all campaigns, you can carefully start reading their white paper and start making research on them.

Secondly, you can just visit ICObench site to see which projects are available and having rating because it is believed that they usually list projects that seems quality to them, and then from there, you can pick anyone of interest and research more on them.
3219  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Impossibility of a gambling system (Why methods don't work) on: July 26, 2019, 08:18:34 PM
I think the idea is to gamble for fun and never thinking of making profit since strategies to breaking the odds never exist. There is no business without a winning strategy and I see no reason why gambling should be an exception if it should be termed a profession. This is really saddening and heart breaking

I made up my mind to stop hoping I would have a breakthrough in gambling after I realized that I have spent over 7BTCs in gambling and yet not been able to make profit of up to 4BTCs. That’s absurd and I really think that these gambling operators are out to rip us off. I am confused at the moment. Should I continue playing for fun while I keep losing or focus on making profit, while I am hopeful for the future or just quit gambling completely? Honestly it is really confusing at the moment.
What kind of stupid fun is that? Is it free to gamble for fun? If so, then the game should be made without stakes and no money involved to play. Gambling operators are busy buying luxury cars , and making so much from us and I really feel hurt at the moment.

I advise you take a break, not to quit completely but just a break. This is exactly what I also intend doing soon after looking back at all that have been lost to gambling. We can’t give up or lose hope, it’s just to re-strategize. I believe there is still a strategy, no matter what people think or say because like u stated, there’s no business that strategy does not work for. And if truly none works for gambling, that means the game is just for very rich people that want to play for entertainment
3220  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Looking for site with good soccer prediction for free! on: July 26, 2019, 05:53:20 PM
Perfect i have something for you mate.  And this app is called match 365 and its totally free and in fact you will receive 100 mc  balance immediately for signing up only.. Its a soccer prediction online mate and available on mobile device.  But the question is if it's still legit nowadays.  Because ypu know when theres a legit application in playstpre ppl always cheat until the devs always decide to shut down the platform..  But just give a try..
I think you should have done a better and more recent research on the site before recommending, you sounded like you were so sure until you ended with the OP, going to do another search to be sure the site is still legit.

You should know by now that most of us do not like doing this and this is the reason we always throw up questions here for assistance, well I have same problems with the op and I am left with no option than to risk checking on the site you recommended, I hope it’s as cool as you have earlier stated.

I have tried a lot of prediction sites before now that has failed, but the mistake I did then was not asking questions like the OP is doing here before trying, and it’s easier to gather information here and to make comparison.
