Litecoin is a classic cryptocurrency and I don't think it will die. What happens is that it just doesn't have a prominent position in crypto market anymore, because it has become obsolete with the launchment of new cryptocurrencies on the last years. People are always looking for new hypes and if old currencies don't have an original aspect to prevail, investors will jump from currency to currency as new trends are started.

It is up to each casino to adopt the strategy they wish regards deposits and withdrawals values and limits, but I guess a casino can profit much more if they give freedom to gamblers on this matter. If a gambler wants to deposit just a dollar, let him do this. It's much better to have 1000 customers depositing 1$ each than one customer depositing 100$, while all the rest will simply not play because they can't afford to spend more funds or they will find an alternative casino which allow them to play with lower amounts of money.

Now about withdrawals, it's not possible to be so flexible, because we know there are operational and network costs to be paid through fees, so a gambler must be aware it's not possible to deposit a single dollar and withdraw it as soon as he double his bankroll to 2$.

Better that you really stop gambling. Although you are being very lucky by winning huge prizes in sequence, expect this luck to go away anytime soon. So you must be serious about your decision of quitting gambling for now. If you are a smart guy and understand about money management you can grow the 10,500$ you have won by investing, so next year you will have more money to gamble, while keeping the profits from 2022 safe and generating more income for you. I believe you are playing a dangerous game right now and greed might be taking control of your mind. Stop while you can!
He’s not stopping at any moment, he keeps on winning and that’s why it will be hard for him to quit. I’ve seen several winning thread from him so I don’t think he will quit. It’s ok to continue to gambling as long as you can still control yourself, but if you think you are getting out of control already, better to seek help. Congratulations on your winnings OP, you’re so lucky.
That is really worrying, since we know where this compulsive behavior is going to take him... After so many winnings it's a pity he is unable to control his emotions, because all these huge prizes can be lost overnight if he doesn't stop. I just hope he takes conscience regards the special luck he is having by now (very few gamblers achieve it), become grateful for that and doesn't develop greedy or addicting behavior, otherwise it can be his ruin.
3344  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Would this Lead to the Mass Adoption of Bitcoin? on: November 02, 2022, 09:12:27 PM
The impact on bitcoin price wouldn't be expressive, because the blue seal membership offered by twitter isn't acquried by a lot of users of the platform. And the ones who are going to pay for it must do it through fiat, even if bitcoin was a possible payment alternative. Actually, this feature by twitter doesn't have potential to impact bitcoin price in anyways.

On the other hand, to send tips inside the platform through bitcoin could be a more effective feature to boost bitcoin price, because it could be used by a different range of companies, groups and sectors to promote their products, brands and ideas, while paying employees inside the platform itself, without further bureaucracy and difficulties. Even for bounty campaigns it would be a good adoption.

3346  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which play to earn and Metaverse project do you think will dominate in future on: November 02, 2022, 07:43:02 PM
The play to earn game which is going to dominate the market in the future is still under development or wasn't even started yet.

All the games we know so far don't have chances to create a solid and sustainable virtual environment able to thrive along the years and proportionate players stable earnings and exciting, addictive gaming experience.

Some interesting games have been launched, but were fastly ruined by bots, toxic players and greedy developers/companies behind the projects, who aren't concerned about players at all, rather their only goal is profit on their pockets at all costs, even if they have to kill the game's economy, competitiveness and gameplay fir that.

Play to earn games have become a risky deal and a waste of time for casual independent players. This sector of crypto market was fastly dominated by wealthy players' mafias who enter together a determined game to dominate and milk the ecosystem until completely draining it.

The profit is restricted to these groups of wealth and power (besides devs), therefore, it is not worthful for most players who just want to play by themselves.
3347  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Nfts are altcoins in pictures on: November 02, 2022, 07:32:38 PM
NFTs go beyond artistic pictures. They are supposed to be unique virtual collectibles. The most common NFTs we see are pictures, because it is easier to produce, create and launch for speculative profit and hype.

But the most useful NFTs are the virtual items which can be used inside online multiplayer games or metaverses. This is the real practical usage for NFT. Unfortunatelly this potential isn't being explored by the industry, as there aren't viral NFT games and metaverses going on right now. This niche is pretty dead, saturated and vicious in this year of 2022.
3348  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Zero KYC tolerance gambling platforms on: November 02, 2022, 06:40:03 PM
Almost impossible, but not impossible at all, we still having some casinos like Just-Dice who allows multi accounts, bots, and they never ask for KYC. If you use the alts or the bots to try to damage the site, they only ban your account, but even banned accounts are allowed to withdraw. I would say is the last one of that freedom casinos types.

Freebitco.in, which started as a faucet and today is more of a casino/betting house, also does not require KYC. Apart from those, there are a couple of others that can be seen in Mahdirakib's thread, the rest require KYC above certain amounts above all. So if you want to gamble without KYC, as long as it is not a huge amount, you still can. I hope this space of freedom is maintained as I haven't passed KYC yet for any cryptocurrency casino and I hope I don't have to.
I agree with @Don Pedro Dinero, who said that Freebitco.in is a casino. Although they don't have too many gambling games, but it is enough for gamblers to bet and is KYC free. And so far, with its reputation, Freebitco.in has become one of the casino sites recommended by many people. The site still provides rewards in the form of faucets for people who want to play gambling directly and the interesting part is that on the site, you can also invest in FUN tokens and get reward points or WoF. But for other casino sites, there may be times when you have to KYC because that's the rule.
And even though they don't require KYC, multi accounts are still hunted and banned by the platform. It means a casino doesn't need KYC feature to fight bots and multi accounts. There are efficient methods of doing this without being intrusive on someone's privacy. So it's not accurate when people say KYC is needed as security measure for the website.

However, we don't know how long freebitcoin will be still able to operate without KYC rule. Regulators are enforcing the siege over crypto services like never before and at some point soon freebitcoin may be left without any alternatives besides finally introducing the feature to the platform.
3349  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Question to players: what does really drive you crazy in an online casino? on: November 02, 2022, 05:57:21 PM
Without any doubts delays on withdrawals are the most annoying situation you can face at an online casino, especially if there is the option to pay a more expensive fee to have your transaction completed faster and even by paying this, you don't see your transaction executed soon.

Besides this point, hidden or catchy terms and conditions for promotions and bonus are also annoying and disappointing. You complete all the requirements full of expectations to receive your prize and it simply doesn't happen, so you discover it hasn't because you didn't pay attention to a micro detail on the terms of the platform.
3350  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do think that POGO should be declared as legal or Illegal ? on: November 02, 2022, 04:30:18 PM
I think it is unfair to the legal companies that they have to compete with illegal brands. If they offer the same services and dispute the same public, all of them should follow the same regulations, otherwise, what incentive companies will have to follow the rules and pay taxes to the government?

In my opinion every businesses should be allowed by the government to start unregulated until they become profitable and solid. Only then they should start following the local requirements. Anyway, inevitably it would happen at some point, being impossible to stay informal forever.
3351  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which has better odds, lottery, online gambling, or sports betting? on: November 02, 2022, 04:07:38 PM
Lottery has the advantage of being cheap to participate and rewarding huge amounts of money which can be a decisive life changer in the winner's life, although winning chances are pretty low. However, it is also possible to bet in partnership with other gamblers in order to increase the winning probability.

Lottery is one of the least harmful categories of gambling, because participants tend to not lose much money on this, since tickets are cheap and you have to wait few days to have the results of the respective draw, until you can start betting on the next one.

Sports betting is the currently hype among gamblers, especially youngsters and it's considered the best category for betting, since you can analyze teams, players, game conditions and so on... But undoubtedly there are many gamblers losing considerable sums of money on this category as well.
3352  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What are five things you will do if you win huge amount of money?? on: November 01, 2022, 11:59:26 PM
1. To purchase a vast and rich in natural resources piece of land.

2. To buy a modern and confortable car.

3. To travel to another regions in my country and to another countries in the world in order to know the local cultures, nature and people.

4. To give part of the prize to my family, so they can use it as they wish and for what they desire.

5. To invest the rest for future plans, although it is not advised to hold money for too long.
3353  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you like commission job or salary base job? on: November 01, 2022, 10:06:11 PM
I prefer career jobs or salary base jobs, as mentioned. This kind of job brings stability to the employee and his family. There are many potential benefits and increasements on his wage as he rises in career, while keeping the same workload.
But this type of job is able to kill the creativity of any person and make him hostage to certain circumstances, including government jobs, which are the most guarantee of providing a stable income.
Freelance professions may be more tiring, but they are more productive and therefore more profitable. As for investment, it may be more profitable and does not cost much effort, but it is less productive and does not provide direct benefits to society and the market.
Well, workload varies a lot. There are governmental jobs with 4 or 5 hours workload from monday to friday. It is possible for those employees to have a fixed job at the governmental sector and an extra job as freelancer, so they can continue exercising their creativity anyway. In some cases, just a secondary hobby activity is enough to balance the monotony and annoyance of a public job and achieving welfare in life.
3354  Economy / Economics / Re: friend I want to invest short term in bitcoin and crypto. to meet their living a on: November 01, 2022, 07:04:57 PM
The only way to invest on short run for daily gains in order to meet with daily appointments and expenses is to invest a large sum of money in bitcoin and deposit it in a lending/investment platform for passive income which can be paid in a daily basis or every month or few months, depending the modality of investment of your preference.

However, it is not possible to rely on daily trading for a living, because it is like gambling, since the market is highly unpredictable on short run. A short sequence of bad moves can lead a trader to severe losses in few days, so just trade with money you can afford to lose. Never use money you will need later for your basic needs.
3355  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Question concerning Crypto.com and CRO on: November 01, 2022, 04:38:31 PM
CRO is just a shitcoin created by Crypto.com and this exchanges is centralized. VVS Finance is a fake decentralized project, although it's decentralized finance, but it doesn't have relation with decentralization.
Not an empty shitcoin, though. You need to stake CRO in order to acquire different tiers of debit crypto cards which guarantee you cashback on purchases made with the card.

I think it is one of the best altcoins around due to the features it proportionates customers. If it wasn't for crypto.com's debit card I would be in a complicated situation when transacting, swaping, exchanging crypto and using it as money. Even though the chain and the service is 100% centralized, it is still worthful and helpful.

I prefer career jobs or salary base jobs, as mentioned. This kind of job brings stability to the employee and his family. There are many potential benefits and increasements on his wage as he rises in career, while keeping the same workload.

On the other hand, if you want to earn more from comission jobs, you have to work more, you have to invest more time without the guarantee you are really going to earn more after all. There are less guarantees and benefits for this kind of employee. Social skills are also a must and not everyone is able to communicate to the public in a clear, charismatic and captivating way.

But since opportunities are scarce for all nowadays, we can't choose with what we want to work. Any opportunities available (since they are legit) must be taken in consideration even if it is not the job of your dreams.
3357  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: DOGECOIN AND ITS EFFECT ON SOCIAL MEDIA on: November 01, 2022, 03:31:20 PM
Why will he do such a thing? I doubt Elon despite how unpredictable he is will ever request payment from Twitter users. this platform has been free for everyone right from the start, so why would he want to change that so suddenly?
Maybe he can create a means where dogecoin will be used in the platform but definitely not charging fees for account verification, that will be so centralized method.
He is going to charge 20$ monthly from users who want a verified seal (blue seal) near their names. For common users nothing is going to change, though. That idea is being discussed and even if they set a price inferior to 20$, people will have to pay anyway, or lose their badges.

The doubt is if users will be able to pay the membership with cryptocurrencies or only fiat.
3358  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is losing bitcoin in account have a significant impact to the bitcoin economy? on: October 31, 2022, 11:49:25 PM
The more bitcoins are lost, the more valuable, scarce and rare bitcoin becomes. It's really unfortunate for those who lost access to their holdings, I feel sorry for them and wouldn't like to see anyone on the same situation, but I can't deny it impacts bitcoin price positively as more adopters start investing. It works like an extra boost for bitcoin price during bullish seasons and even during the bearish ones, as it also helps keeping bitcoin at support level price ranges.
3359  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bear And Bull Market? on: October 31, 2022, 07:02:34 PM
A safe strategy to make profit with cryptocurrency is to always think on long term, preparing yourself during one season to make profit only on the next one. That is, to acquire most coins as possible during the bear market (since currencies are cheaper), so you hold them and sell for profit once the bull market begins. You just have to be patient and the more money you have to invest the better, because it can take up to few years until you can conclude this strategy for financial gains, so the profit must make it worth the time you had to wait.
3360  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin - How high can it go? on: October 31, 2022, 06:57:31 PM
Bitcoin has already reached 69,000$ once, so we can expect a new ATH must guarantee us bitcoin near 100,000$ at least. However, until it happens, we can't say anything else regards bitcoin price, otherwise we would be skipping an essential stage on the progression of bitcoin. It is like desiring to know what happens on the middle of a game's storyline without playing the previous levels which lead you there.

What I keep in mind is that bitcoin is pretty likely to hit more expensive price levels yet, so it is a good investment for now and for the future, although I can't say exactly how further it is going to reach yet.
