3341  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Affiliates (Paid Streamers) - Fair or Not to other non-paid gamblers? on: September 02, 2021, 06:36:33 AM
When you watch a Streamer like "Trainwreckstv" .... and you see him betting $1000 per bet, you distance yourself from betting like that. Nobody in his right mind will drop $1000 per bet on a Slot.... if it was their own money.

I think it's not with the amount that viewers are following but the actions of that streamer regardless of the amount that a viewer is placed.

No one will really follow a $1,000 per bet because that is ridiculous on our part even how loyal and die-hard followers of that streamer are. Regardless of where the funds came from, viewers have to use their common sense that streamers are just trying to make their viewers fall on the bait. That's the role of the streamers, to attract their viewers to do the same.

I agree that viewers should use their common sense! In the end, it's all on us to understand what we are watching and to not fall on everything we see... all that is a part of the marketing strategies, some of them are not ethical and moral, and we all know how far can all that goes just for more viewers!
I think viewers are the crazy ones here, I will use the Big Brother example (in all forms), it's something crazy, but I don't blame the people there and people who created it... they have many viewers, and when there's a demand someone will provide! So clearly these streamers are followed, they just provide what some people want to see... they found a way to earn and they are doing that!

I am not entirely sure if I am understanding this correctly or not, maybe it is just me and I would like it if someone explains to me what the problem is all about. I personally thought that this was given as an option to people who live there, if it is an option then why are they going against it? If you are a retired person who doesn't want anything to do with bitcoin then all you have to do is ignore it? I mean if it is just an option then do not pick that option. Don't they have their own currency as well?

Also do not get me started on volatility, it usually goes up and it made everyone a lot of money if they stand here and not sell their coins whereas the fiat currency in every nation dropped in value by a large margin, so it is a good thing even for a retired person, they would have been richer. If it is just an option then why are they not ignoring it, could someone explain that to me please?

I would say it's a result of propaganda! Old people believe that Bitcoin is used for illegal activities, and now probably these old people think that allowing Bitcoin to be a legal tender will draw people from criminal circles! So now these old people are just protesting against new regulations because they don't see any benefits for them directly! They don't understand crypto, they want something in their wallets! And can we blame them?! It's something new that they don't understand, maybe they feel like left behind again, and they are protesting... as the last chance to change something for them!
3343  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you gamble to make money or for FUN? on: September 01, 2021, 11:55:19 AM
As long as you gamble with "the money you can afford to lose" it's fun and entertainment that can be profitable from time to time when you score some nice wins! When you doing it like that there's no risk for your health, your social life...
At the moment when you start risking more than you can afford to lose, problems will start coming your way! All kinds of problems! Because you will start taking and putting all in gambling, so everything and everyone around you will start to suffer!

I gamble for fun, but I can't (nobody can't) deny the nice feelings from nice wins, and desire to win even more! We people love to win, and we know that winning in any gambling game can be profitable!
3344  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Credit card bans introduced in Ireland. on: September 01, 2021, 06:06:10 AM
You can limit yourself without a credit card ban! I see this as the last measure, but even that will not have effects if someone wishes to gamble!
I don't understand why this is needed, people who want to do something will find a way to do it, more banned options will lead people to search for new options, mostly on the dark side, where chances for them to be scammed are going up!
It's better to educate people, to open workshops where people can learn about negative sides of gambling, a place where people can learn to control themselves... that can make their life better overall, just banning credit cards is almost like nothing... hiding under the table while atomic bomb is going your way! Do you really think that table can save you?
3345  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Daytrading vs Holding on: August 31, 2021, 08:16:54 PM
We have to choose our journey, day trading and holding are quite different though we have the same goal to make money. For some who are full time in trading, they have a good chance to be profitable in day trading because they can spend time to research and gain more experience, for some investors who are busy with their jobs and businesses outside crypto, they don't need to choose day trading, holding along is enough as long as they fully understand crypto and the potential of the coin they are investing.
Without a doubt both are different and require different strategies however it is obvious that if we look at the rate of success of both ways to try to earn money from the markets then we are going to see that investors are on average successful in greater numbers than day traders and this is because it is easier, day trading is by far the most difficult way to produce profits in the markets but since it has the potential to also be the most profitable then it is not a surprise why so many people want to become one.

The fact is "there's money in both"! People who held the right coins are enjoying profits, daily trades who have the third sense for the right timing are enjoying profits!

Why separate trading from holding? Serious traders always have something on a side (holding), and depending on the pair you either stack dollars or sat's (let's use BTC/USDT pair for example), so if you chose the right pair and you stack the right one you will make a profit! Stacking is necessary for this process because many times the price movement will surprise and we need to have a backup plan... and that backup plan requires some funds, one way or another!
3346  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ESPN into a betting deal worth 3 billion dollars $$$ on: August 31, 2021, 06:42:33 PM
ESPN has reportedly been losing subscribers and revenue. They need a to secure new sources of income if they're to stay relevant. It would seem they've chosen to tap the gambling industry as the logical source.
...

In the end, it's all about the money and how to make more money! I think you hit the point of this, ESPN will do something in order to continue to exist and to make a profit, or they will be left behind! They decided to expand their business on gambling, and probably they made the right choice here... time will tell that of course, but they have a good ground to become one of the leading sports bookies, with many live streams in their selection!
I guess this works for all businesses, either adapt and make progress or vanish from the scene!
3347  Economy / Economics / Re: The lending problem on: August 31, 2021, 05:09:41 PM

Bitcoins monetary policy is a threat to powerful central banks. This has gradually been generalized to be seen as "crypto is a threat to banks". Its more like a competitor.

It's a competitor, but crypto to grow needs to take from fiat space! And crypto is taking more and more space! In one moment banks and institutions will try to stop that (and I can bet they are doing that already), but I doubt they can do much!

Simply, traditional monetary systems are corrupted and nobody can fix that! Most of the things that happen in this system are secret, we don't even know what happens... So we come to one of the things I like about crypto, and that is transparency, open ledger... that can help all of us, that can make many things less vulnerable on corruption!

True power comes from the people, masses! In the end, the group of people that is bigger and stronger will win... I hope that people will recognize the crypto as something better, and if that happens bank institutions will fail in one moment!
3348  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Poker casino but need KYC, is this really necessary? on: August 31, 2021, 08:14:23 AM
Hmm, that will not be easy as we see many people trying to use gambling to make money, although they know it is too risky to use gambling that way. Some gamblers who do not think much about making money will only play gambling for fun and not seriously play.

But KYC is not necessarily needed in gambling, especially for online gambling. Fortunately, some crypto gambling sites do not require verification KYC for gamblers to avoid sending their documents to the casino.
But it is though, especially if required by the government where the casino is registered in. Afaik, even online casinos have countries where they are registered in, and those registrations require them to ask for KYC once a certain amount was breached by the player. It's nothing new really, and yes, there are casinos that don't require KYC, but hey, that might just be the countries not really asking for one. It's more on protection against underaged people really, and also preventing citizens from countries where gambling is banned from playing in their country.

It's because you can launder money in casinos too... you can use them as mixers! Where's money involved there are regulations...

Reality is harsh here... if you wish to play good poker with a lot of actions with many games you have to play fiat poker, still there's no good crypto poker place with many players!

And one more reality, we had Bitcoin poker games... from all the people who like to talk about poker we had just 10-20 active players, in the beginning, later even that fall apart! That's saying a lot about how many crypto-oriented people are interested in really playing poker!

Yes more people is adopting bitcoin day by day its impact on the world is huge now whoever have a wish to earn or increase his investment  goes for bitcoin. Big companies  in the world have also done they same they just keep buying  it

Day by day, but still we need to be patient! Big things don't come overnight, so I guess we need a lot more time for full adoption, that will happen eventually, in my humble opinion. I also think that any reasonable prediction for this to happen must be +10 years from now! It's not like it's impossible to happen earlier, at least we in crypto are used to surprises! Bitcoin had many obstacles, and I think we will see bigger ones in the future, maybe organized by more countries and banking institutions! When we survive that Bitcoin will have an easy journey to the top!
3351  Economy / Gambling / Re: BC.Game-🔴🔴🔴BET RED IN CRASH!🔴🔴🔴 Find More Unique Games! on: August 30, 2021, 09:06:11 AM
I tried their slot, it's good. I like Egyptian too... Egyptian is nice, you can play it with very low bets, and I have fun with that a  lot, I start auto and increase double every 50 spins until the bonus round.
Is that so? I hadn't tried it yet, my reward from medals bonus has been busted due to chasing losses in their house game, hehe Wink. How about its RTP? I forgot to check it last time

Yeah, I love egyptian as well. I think it was too risky to increase the base bets every 50 spins, I did experience when this slot become sucks, almost 1k spins and there is no FS triggered

Almost 1k spins without free spins is a record! I had +500 spins without a bonus round, with Egyptian, and many other slots, but until that point, I either hit a bonus round or I don't have balance for more spins. And hitting bonus at any time doesn't necessarily mean some higher payout, I had a few x0 bonus rounds, under x10 many times... slots, there isn't any other explanation!
I don't know Egyptian RTP, but if it's a lucky session I hit the bonus round in the first 100 spins, and a few big wins from normal spins (over x30)

...

Real lucky day, congrats! But that's how gambling can go. One moment everything goes right and than another moment everything doesn't work out and you can loose everything especially if you want to chase your loss.

Congrats Pawanjain!

I can't agree more with Babygun words, there are lucky and unlucky days in gambling! Chasing losses is never a good thing to do, it's better to gamble with what you have and in case of loss, the best thing to do is to take a break!
3352  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: FreeBitcoin Bot - What do you think about this tool?? on: August 30, 2021, 07:02:14 AM
I see you update the bot feature and make it looks completed with we can modify the strategies that we want. So far, I like the video Grin

I think this bot can help people auto claim the reward every hour so they do not have to bother visiting that site every hour and day. But they should think about how to solve the captcha in Freebitco.in. But the gambler should be concerned about how they can manage their money and not use the money that they can not afford to lose.

Thanks anyway for the update. Maybe I will try it later with a new account.

Do you see that he is red-flagged? Check who tagged it, it's important. I guess using this bot can lead to banning your account!

Also, for auto-claiming you need to run this bot, so you need to keep your comp/laptop turned on all the time... isn't it easier to click once every hour and be fair and honest to the site that doesn't support using auto-bots?!

Last but not least, just looking at this video and bot and comparing it with Wolf expert settings will tell you that you don't need to download anything to be able to play good strategies without any risks of compromising your computer!

You're right that it's requiring an investment for you to own an Axie, you have to purchase three of them and every Axie is sold or can be bought individually.

There's a rumor that there will be a free to play feature of it but you won't be able to earn anything. It's just a feature to make you experience how to play it.

Thanks for sharing the right info! I just google the price of Axie, take a look at this:

The cheapest Axie on sale right now costs around $200. And the most expensive Axie ever sold went for 300 ETH

I'd say that bridge is more luck-based as compared to poker. For long it's been considered that poker is about 50-60% skill, but recently I've seen this number going up as high as 80% in discussions, some even say that in the long run, it's a pure skill.

Bridge, on the contrary, largely depends on the cards you get during the game, what I've found playing bridge P2P is that, at some point, after me and the other player getting to know all the rules and tricks, acquiring some necessary skills we win approximately 50/50, and it all depends on cards.

Yes, in all the card games I mentioned it's very important what kind of cards you are holding in your hands! We are talking about poker alternatives, and in these games (including poker) you need to have some skills, you need to know some tricks, how to play with good and bad cards if you wish to win!

We are all Bitcoin/crypto addicts here! Simply we make money with crypto, in so many ways! It's like a job, a job that you like... working from home or wherever you place your laptop and you have an internet connection! We watch charts, we place orders, we check investments that we made along the way... collecting profit from passive income, or simply gambling and having fun with crypto! And that's not such a bad thing, after all, we are contributing in many ways...
3355  Economy / Gambling / Re: Fiat/Crypto Gambling Sites With Big Bonuses on: August 29, 2021, 11:55:33 AM
Why do you need to see the terms and conditions, is in the gambling site itself, besides the link given is obviously the sole purpose is for referral which is obviously trying to advertise here for making a profit.

The site is too simple... so I agree with you, the sole purpose of this is for more referrals! CutyBonus just refers people to casinos that give deposit bonuses, CutyBonus doesn't give any special bonus for registering like their referral!!!
I believe he will not find any referrals here, we have seen all kinds of tries to have them more, and this is not even a good one!
3356  Economy / Economics / Re: Cryptocurrency and entertainment. on: August 29, 2021, 08:44:56 AM
I don't think that the main objective should be entertainment, crypto currencies should represent the changes from some old system to the new one, better arranged, where all the people of the world can have a vote, not just a handful of people on the top!

Entertainment is something different, and we have fun with crypto in the same way we can have fun with fiat! I just think that people should be "hooked up" what crypto really represents, not just for fun you can have it with crypto!

"you do not need millions of tickets to win something"
Thats true, however those who have more tickets has a great chance to win compared to those who have less. But overall when it comes to lottery its all about luck. Currently I prefer to save all my free spins, I think its much better to increase the chances of hitting nice rewards although it seems not related at all, but still, I like it that way.

I like to check lottery winners and to see how many tickets winners have! In round 304 1 place was 0.1 BTC and the guy had only 12 tickets! So yes, there's no need for many tickets, just a stroke of big luck! I didn't win any lottery place in +5 years! And I had over 10k tickets many times... I still didn't lose the will to collect them, this week I got a lot of tickets from WoF spins and I have 17k tickets!

As always great organization, good vibes, ty.
As for the event, I started from 4x (without embarrassment, that was my first multiplier) to 157x playing in the balance of competing at my pace, my bankroll, I hope some day the four figures but on competition will arrive, finally thanks to BTCGOSU and Bc.Game.



After this mega $500 event there was a little $75 dollars event... you probably saw it... Crypto Noypi won it with x5000 win! Madness!

I take Gosu as an example, so many good events with nice prizes but still many people miss this chance... why it's like that? And it's all transparent and honest... I really expected to see more people joining the race for the big event, but that didn't happen! I wonder why?

In the end, slots are slots, I gambled my $300 prize! I tried to make millions from this amount, playing slots with +$3 bets and I didn't have the luck to hit anything big! Smiley

Does it happen with you? Or just it's happening with me?

You are legendary, and I guess this is something that happens many times with many people who are here for years! So not once or twice, it's like many times... just after selling and thinking this is the top, we see another bullish trend and push to some higher prices! And not just that, there is the opposite thing that happens... I buy with thinking it's the bottom, but the price goes down more, I buy again and the price drops again!

I think this is crypto, and this thing happens all the time to us who are active in crypto for years! Nothing strange, it's why I try to have a stash on both crypto and fiat sides when I make a mistake to be able to do something else!

It's a crypto road, I guess many of us had some bad investments! Nothing wrong with that, just forget about them, learn from that and move on!
