3221  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: You got a pifzer ? Then you can be eligible for lottery in Poland. on: July 23, 2021, 04:50:39 AM
As I know it's hard for countries to get the Pfizer vaccine and I don't think they have a surplus of it (idk to be fair) but I also don't know whats wrong with Moderna? I understand that Sputnik V is a Russian vaccine and Poland people don't like Russia but what's wrong with other vaccines for them?
They are all the same they have undergone clinical studies and have passed regulatory and testing I have been vaccinated by China's vaccine and although I was lucky to have a choice of other vaccines then if I only wait, I got the vaccine that is available, people should not be picky if there are available just go for it, especially if you are living in a third world country like me, the most important is you get vaccinated.
I think that will because that country has a bilateral relationship with the country that produces the vaccine so their government only allow some company from that country.
But the important thing is the government is trying to get the vaccine from the health company to distribute to their hospital or the other health center.
Getting vaccinated will be important as that is one thing that the government concern about so far to help their citizen and give more protection to prevent the virus.
Hopefully, people's awareness will increase and they will want to get vaccinated.

What is the legit source for trezor or Ledger wallets please, thank you for the replys thus far, highly appreciated.
Ledger or Trezor is a legit wallet and you can use it together to keep your coins.

While doing a little search for Shiba Inu wallet, I found some wallet support for Shiba Inu such as Lumi, freewallet.org, atomic wallet, coinomi, cro.com wallet, trust wallet.
Maybe another wallet supports Shiba Inu and you can search for it by yourself and choose what you think that wallet can fit you want.
I suggest you not save it in the exchange to prevent anything bad that can happen.
I keep my Shiba Inu on the cro wallet while converting it into cro coin or using their feature to earn some coins.
3223  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Biggest winning so far on: July 22, 2021, 08:47:05 AM
This is an old topic but I decided to update.. my biggest earning to date have been .071 bitcoin... as of today that is around 2000 USD. This was a one off and it was on a game that happened on this forum. I only had to make a simple prediction: price of bitcoin at a certain moment a month into the future and miraculously I got it right to the nearest 10USD. Not bad for a 1 minute job of posting a result and a 1 minute time of setting up a bitcoin address.
my biggest winner is only about $200 which I won last year...

surely you use big capital to be able to win that much! I have never used large capital to play gambling so the results I get are little. You are very lucky.
It's really a matter of luck gambling depends on luck in most cases I also didn't win much but so the reason for winning the game seems normal to the reader. Maybe dostoevsky's words resonate in his mind let your intellect express itself I will change my destiny overnight.
Yes, that will be luck when we related to gambling because playing gambling without luck means we will lose.
Winning big money from gambling is an amazing result that not many gamblers can get, but people still play gambling because they want to get their luck to come to them.
I do not have the biggest winning this year because I see my luck in gambling still not come.
If I can win on the gambling, that will not be bigger than $5 because I stop gamble after winning.
3224  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: signs of gambling addiction on: July 22, 2021, 07:46:25 AM
Gambling and casinos a bloody mixed affected addiction. Can who addicted with gambling can't leave with easily. Because when a gambler win a bets he could his luck very favour but when a gambler lose in a bets he thinks he a unlucky and continue his bets untill he gain a bet with win.
People can easily get addicted to gambling but it can be difficult to stop the addiction because once people are addicted to gambling, their minds will think about gambling and want to play gambling.
They will have more passion when they win some money, including if they win big money.
Their luck can come to them occasionally, so they still play gambling because of wanting the next luck.
But many of them are forget that luck will not come easily in the next games.
3225  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Vegas Casinos to allow Cannabis Lounges. on: July 22, 2021, 06:50:21 AM
Most people already gamble on online casinos, you need to offer some good stuff to bring them back to the real life casinos.

Then why Las Vegas is now turning to what it should be prior to the pandemic?

The usual and regular customers will surely back to the Vegas gambling haven no matter what on which they don't experience playing in online casinos. They are just waiting for the pandemic situation to be fully controlled or make sure that their country already reached great numbers of vaccinated people.

No need to add some cool stuff just to attract again those people to get back gambling physically.
La Vegas is a touristic city, I am sure the regulars are already there playing like usual but this is not enough to sustain the city they need to bring people back and I think this is something they believe can do this, after all despite cannabis being legalized in many states on the US it is still illegal in the majority of the states so they are adding this as an incentive to those people that may like to use it legally and have a good time at the casino at the same time.

Not only to residents of the US, but this will be a good tourist destination of other rich foreigners, where cannabis is banned in their country. And we know that up until now, most countries don't have the legality for cannabis usage. This will be a good spot for them where they can enjoy themselves without worrying about getting caught. I believe when they think about offering this service, they are not only thinking about the regular residents but other gamblers outside their country.
But right now, I think it is not easy to travel to another country because we are still at a pandemic and that is not yet shown when to end.
Yes, that can raise tourism for a country that legalizes gambling and cannabis, but at this moment, maybe the local people can feel that experience.
But for people who already move from offline casinos to online casinos can still consume cannabis at their homes and they are free to do that.
After this pandemic ends and the tourism sector is reopened, it will be time for the offline casino to return to their business with some surprises to their old members.
3226  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC broke through 33,500 USDT on: July 22, 2021, 05:18:25 AM
well, currently the price of bitcoin is under $30k. I was quite surprised to see it. but because the crypto world is like this, it seems that those who hold bitcoins need to be patient. In addition, this decline caused almost all altcoins to go down. well, I'm still expecting the price to rise again and be above the $40k price again.
The price is back to $30k and it seems to want to break $31k because the price now is at $30,900 level price.
If this situation can be like this, maybe this day, we will see bitcoin will be back to $31k and people can sell their bitcoin and take profit.
But it needs more observation and analysis to know if bitcoin will still go up to the higher price because no sign shows that.
We are only speculating about what will happen to bitcoin but the truth is we do not know for sure.
The altcoin just follows behind bitcoin and some altcoin already increases, but it still needs more time for the altcoin to jump to the high price.
Yeah, surprise, surprise, after a scary $29k meltdown in the last 24 hours, the price suddenly has some life again and climbing back to $32k. Hopefully it can go back again so that the support on $30k could be established again.

We really don't know what's the cause of the price going down though, maybe the bots again being triggered or manipulators wanted to bring the price so that they can buy cheap again and then short.
That is a little surprising because I do not expect to see the price can back to $31k but it did happen.
Hopefully, the support increase to $30k and not going down again because that can make people panic.
I think the price wants to give us the profit after getting down in the last week to make a profit although not much, but that still profit to us.
If the price is down again, we can buy back at a low price and if that continues like that, we can expect to make more profit from bitcoin.
3227  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will bitcoin go down below $20,000. on: July 22, 2021, 04:03:01 AM
Hopefully, with the price is back to $31k, it will be a good sign for bitcoin to increase and break the next high price.
Who knows, this week, the price can break by $32k, especially if there is good news coming to the market that can lift the price to rise higher.
But still, the last dump yesterday makes some traders panic and sell their bitcoin and buy back at a low price.
So congratulations to people who bought bitcoin at a low price yesterday because they now can sell their bitcoin and make a profit in the short term.
They can hold it and wait for more if they want, especially bitcoin price will increase so high in the future.

Good for those who manage to cut their loses and buy back during the dip, they are now gaining some positive from their investments.

Tough call though as we understand that the market is so volatile and if you are not careful enough that wild dumping scenes may affect you and let you lose your money.

With people around that keeps panicking with the situations, it's always best to trust your judgements and keep working to enhance for more.
Hopefully, this increase does not make them greedy and want to get bigger profit because we do not know if the price can still increase.
We need to be ready for anything that can happen to bitcoin, including if the price suddenly goes down to $30k.
Maybe it is better to cash out our profit first before the price is down because it seems the price does not increase to the higher price but is back to the $31k price.
The dump for the price can happen anytime, so you need to analyze what can happen and do not forget to make a strategy for the next things.

That depends on the ethics and moral compass of the businessman I mean most businessman are greedy right? So there's an unlikely chance that they are going to be giving back to their community.
Yes, the businessman is greedy but not all of them are greedy.
Some of them will have good ethics and morals and will not do that action.
That will be symbiosis mutualism between them and it is like take and give back to their community.

Exactly, that's why they are immune almost to paying taxes, they secretly instill their politician friends in position of great power and leverage because they want to make sure that they have favours that they can utilize when needed.
That is why they seem too strong to breakable, but it is just a matter of time to separate each other and give them trouble because of what they did.
The clean government and officers will not stay quiet to see that and investigate until they can prove what they did wrong.
It is more effort to drag them out from the dark place and punish the dirty politicians and business owners who commit a crime.

Just make sure that at least you understand what is going inside you and if you can control, ask for someone to "supervise" you gambling.

Honestly, no need for serious supervision because as you have mentioned, dopamine plays a role whenever we gambling. Naturally, it creates pleasure in the brain therefore it was only us that can't control it.

Actually, I don't mind if people still continue to play gambling despite lots of losing in their respective sessions. That's their money and will after all. As long as they are still responsible outside their gambling activity, that was good. But if not, that was a different story.
Someone that can supervise us is us because we take responsibility for our money and I am sure we do not want to see our money is gone because of losing control.
But that is what happens so far, and many people tend to use their money to gamble and add more money to try to win without considering that it is better to stop gamble for a while after we lose.
People can play gambling anytime they want but they should know how to manage their money but if they do not want to listen to our suggestion, that will be up to them.
We can only suggest to them without forcing they must stop as soon as possible because they will not want to stop if they do not see their limit.
Well, I guess that could be a great way too. When we already have a budget for gambling but because there is a high awareness for supervision, then we can save the budget to anyone we trust, whether it's friends or family. With the budget that we entrust to the trusted person, at least there will be good control not to continue to increase the budget when it runs out and that method can also be good management for your finances.
That is the benefit of having supervision so our budget is under control and we will have a chance to prevent from over budget.
When we can make a good plan for using the money, we cannot worry about losing money because we will not try to break the limit just because of playing gambling.
We will think if we add more money to gamble from our plan, that can make our plan not work and we must avoid that.
If that can succeed, we can tell about the plan to people we know to also try it by themselves.
3232  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: HOLDING TOKEN TO EARN DIVIDENDS on: July 21, 2021, 05:35:16 AM
We were told to hold token in wallet for the long term. in the earlier stage. most projects promises holders and long term investors that holding will generate more benefits and interest if they can hold the token for long term. today, None of these tokens offered dividends for holding, rather they creat campaigns for staking and ask investors to deposit.
My questions, are the long term benefits of crypto changing or it is just useless to hold since you can partake in farming and staking programs.
That will depend on the investor because if they want to sell the token instead of holding it for some time, the dev can not prohibit or stop them as the investor wants to make a profit.
Many new projects promise to give rewards to the investor if they can hold for some period of time, but the investor is smart enough not always to follow the suggestion from the developer and the team.
If the investor is confident with the project and they believe the project will give them a big profit in the future, they will do what is suggested to them.
If you really want to hold the coin or token to earn dividends, you can try to stake bnb, trx, cro, coal, etc. But I do not know how many rewards you could make.
3233  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Polkadot Price Down – Time To Buy DOT? on: July 20, 2021, 07:50:55 AM
With the price now, I think I will wait for more because the price is still too high for me. After all, I already bought Polkadot when it's low.
I think the price will go down below $10, and if that happens and the price can reach $5-7, maybe I will buy more.
If bitcoin is down to $26k-$28k, the altcoin will go down, which will happen to DOT.
So it is better not to buy in this situation because we do not know where bitcoin will moves.
Maybe buying for less than 1 DOT can give you more signs of where the DOT price will go so you can buy more later if the price is down.
3234  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Mining vs Holding on: July 20, 2021, 06:27:56 AM
I prefer to buy and hold than mining because your calculations can not work in many countries, especially if they have a high electricity fee.
Unless you have a lower electricity fee, you will hard to make a profit, and that will giving you a high fee for electricity.
If you have $2,800, I suggest you buy and hold and do not use that money in bitcoin to trade, especially if you do not have skills in trading.
But if I can install solar panels at my home and do not use my current electricity energy, I will try to mine bitcoin and see how big the reward I can get.
That will depend on you because you know how much electricity fee that you should pay.

Binance as a big exchange makes many traders use that to trade and make a profit.
But some of them hate Binance because I think they have a problem while they use Binance so they tell about that to many people and say that Binance is the worst exchange.
I prefer to trade on Binance because we do not have to verify our account like the other exchanges but we should follow their rule to limit our withdrawal.
Many people make money from Binance and invite more people to join while earning some reward from the promotion.

The government taxes are not really hurting the rich people who can always afford to go to casinos because they have spare money for this, but for average guys like us who just want to have the experience to play on casinos it will be costly, but it will minimize average joe's going to these casinos, there are countries that are so dependent on casinos that they provide everything on that country like Macau and Las Vegas, casinos are the best cash cows of many countries because like prostitution is one of oldest profession and vice.
It does hurt, they just don't tell it, I mean if it doesn't hurt then why go to the lengths or bribing/lobbying these politicians to have their tax contribution much lower and sometimes even zero, they know that if tax is left unchecked, it could take away a really big chunk of their already big paychecks.
I think they want to get protection from the politicians to run their business without any trouble and maybe they want to reduce the tax fee for them.
We know that lobbying in business owners with politicians is happened in many sectors, not just in the gambling industry, because they think that the politicians will have their power, even after they pension.
But if that business owner knows that the government needs that taxes to grow their country, they will not bribe the politicians or the officers because the impact will be worst to them and the officers.

What is the best time to buy bitcoin?

bitcoin deposit recommend wallet?

What are your thoughts on Bitcoin minig?

What are your thoughts on these matters?

Only you will know when the best time to buy bitcoin but for making sure, you can buy bitcoin at a low price.
Maybe you can buy at the exchange and after you get the bitcoin, you can send it to your wallets such as ledger, trezor or the other customizable wallet.
With the difficulty of bitcoin mining now, I do not recommend you to mining bitcoin because if you still want to mine bitcoin, you need to prepare the newest hardware to get a good reward, but that is not guaranteed you can make a profit in weekly or monthly.
Maybe this will be a bitcoin season to buy because the price is down deeper, but we do not know if bitcoin price still goes down, so you need to analyze more to find out.
3239  Economy / Speculation / Re: Using BTC only for Trading? on: July 18, 2021, 06:06:10 AM
For all of you who do trading in Cryptocurrency.

I ask for those who just use Bitcoin for trades?
Do you think just focusing on Bitcoin to do trades back and forth using Stablecoins such as USDC etc a good focus?

More less being a safe avenue in case you miss the sell off targets as markets change.

I am thinking yes we all know just holding BTC is always seen as something as value.

So if you put yourself in a Buy position and the sell position does not happen. Just being left holding that BTC is a safe position regardless.

Vs holding an unstable alt coin such as something like Shibu Inu or some of those other alt coins that could disappear or dump lots within a day or a few hours. Also have no value in long term to hold an alt coin?


Your thoughts on this. Do you think one can be successful just day trading on BTC only vs the other coins/tokens? thanks

I just don't think so, unless you're doing it with an alternative trading on other coins aside from btc. You can't rely all alone with bitcoin because we need to divert on other coins due to downfalls of btc. Many had the expectations that btc will rapidly increase double from current price, but the long waits has not yet to come.
It will have a chance to increase double from the current price but that will not happen rapidly because I guess we can see this situation for some time, maybe it can happen for more than 1-2 months later.
We can select what we want to use, whether bitcoin or altcoin, to trade because we need to find what coin can make us feel is not too hard to make a profit.
But we need to consider that trading will not be easy when the bear market comes like today and we need to find another way to make a profit.
I think it is our benefit to have so many coins besides bitcoin because that can help us to have a chance to make a profit when bitcoin price moves are not good. But yes, the altcoin will get the impact from the bitcoin price.
3240  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Your betting budget on: July 18, 2021, 05:03:02 AM
My earning isn't regular and the earnings I make isn't big. This makes me go try for multiplying what I have in the wallet. Probably I start with the minimal allocation of $10, but this never gets stopped by the point. The gambling gets stopped once the Wallet gets emptied. This way I used to end gambling for the while and I don't have self control.
It is difficult to use multiplying to increase the money by winning the games as we know that will depend on our luck.
But that could be the way for us to make money as long as we know when to stop.
Maybe you can try to change for $10 to be the maximal allocation to gamble so you will not have to add more money to continue gambling because I am afraid that can attract you to deposit more if you lose all of the $10.
Learning self-control will be necessary for a gambler because that can help him to stop gambling and not trying to deposit more money.

And what's next if you managed to increase your $10? without any limitation with your gambling activities, there's none waiting for you.

Always best to have good target when you are playing the game, though your budget is not that high and if you can stop after losing it and you have no plans to deposit larger amount, that's already a good way to start balancing your goals.

Most of the time, those gamblers who are good with small earnings managed to exit the house with a much better enjoyment, than those who are greed who keeps regretting and keep asking those "what if'" Just saying  Grin Roll Eyes
Just stop gambling if you can increase your $10 because the next round will not always be your lucky.
That is why limitations will always be necessary for gambling to know when to stop gambling and prevent addiction.
We can prevent a deposit of a larger amount with limitations because that will be a high risk that we will face.
We know how to enjoy gambling without using a large amount because our luck will come with a small amount.
