341  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Who says Tesla initiated last bull run is wrong on: February 05, 2024, 02:46:23 PM
I really do not think Tesla initiated the last bull run let alone Elon Musk hype but rather a manipulation to control the market for their own benefit. The Bitcoin market was just fluctuating on hype and fomo based on Elon Musk d Tesla's interference. Although it gave a little price push up but it was not sustainable to hold the price of Bitcoin high for a long run coupled with the fact that China banned Bitcoin and it drastically affected the market for a long time before the bounce back.

Institutional acceptance of Bitcoin is not as influential as a government acceptance of Bitcoin because if the government accepts Bitcoin definitely all the institution  under the government would follow suit and that would drastically cause an increase in bitcoin  price compared to when a single institution decides to accept Bitcoin as a means of legal tender. So I think to some extent the bull started with Tesla's acceptance but could not sustain the price for a while coupled with the fact the stopped the acceptance which made the situation worse and it gotten worst when Chinese government banned their citizens from mining Bitcoin.

Week#6 spreadsheet has been updated. As like last week, there's a delay in the payment processing.
I got very little communication with Bets.io forum rep, I'm trying to change the payment day as it seems Sunday is something which is causing the delay. If we change the pay day, in that case, for 1 week all the participants have to wear the signature for 1/2 more days as I'm planning to pay on Wednesday. Nothing confirmed yet though. After a discussion, I'll announce it here.

I apologize for the delay. I wish I handled this more professionally.

LM

Your professionalism speaks of great volume. I commend you for the fact that you always consider the welfare of your workers and takes it very much important to always keep us updated on the development of things as it relates to activities surrounding our work and engagements. I appreciate you for being kind and understanding. I do not mind if you change the payment days to Wednesday if it is convenient for you.

Most times violence in the house can be as a result of idleness. When a man is idle and is supposed to be the bread winner of the house and he is not doing anything to support or back up the family, it annoys him and in most cases, he becomes hostile and aggressive just to  express his frustration. Doing this alone causes violence at home. Gamblers too vent their frustration at home violently when they loses games and this also results to violence in their house.
Venting their annoyance or frustration when they are at home is something that most often happens in households so that their children or wives will become victims of violence. Those who have lost at gambling will feel relieved if they have committed acts of violence against people at home because they were too afraid to take it out while they were still in the casino. They won't be able to take it out on them at the casino because there will be securities that will beat them up if they cause trouble. And that was his reason to vent his frustration due to his defeat on the people in his house.
It is obvious that some gamblers do make such mistakes of transferred aggression at home after losing at gambling casinos. It is true that at casinos, there are Security's to enforce law and orderliness when gambling and with the presence of those security officers, losers can not act funny because if they do, they would be properly dealt with so in that case, a frustrated gambler would take his annoyance and anger home to vent it on his family there by causing domestic violence without minding the consequences of his actions.
344  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you believe visiting a seer or spiritual house could make you win a game? on: February 03, 2024, 09:08:17 AM
A majority of gambling activities is all about luck and experience. Some people believe the spiritual can actually affect luck however I believe it doesn't work that way. If a gamble is truly luck based, the fact if you Will actually win or loss is based on chances.
It may seem to work for some persons that when they go have a session with the seer they will get to see future bets that will be profitable and then use them to make wins consecutively.

However the fact is if a bet depends solely on luck, if karma already had it that you will win you will and if karma has it that you will lose, you would actually lose. In some cases people believe if they pray for luck they will win but some others don't believe so.

Actually, I am of the perspective that luck is divine. Experience also plays a good role in positioning a player to having an edge over the game he or she is playing because from their previous or past experience they had gotten while playing such game, they could develop a good strategy or measures they had in the past used to an games.  When it comes to spirituality, I do not doubt the fact that it does not exist but in the reality, spirituality do really exist but I am looking at the tendencies of its connectivity to gambling which involves gamblers visiting seers and shamans to help them predict the outcome of games in their favour.
345  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Another health benefit of online gambling on: February 02, 2024, 09:37:34 PM
My neighbor has tuberculosis and from the information I gathered from a reliable source, his case is so severe. He is at the lung cavitation stage of the disease and he has been advised to avoid overcrowded environments for his health and the safety of others. But my neighbor who is a responsible gambler will always visit physical betting shops. Some physical gambling shops in my area are poorly ventilated and they could be overcrowded and stuffy. Sometimes you could see that he is struggling to remain in the casino shop and such cases he would be coughing heavily. I have told him to focus on online gambling but he told me that he is more entertained in physical bet shops.

Betting with online gambling firms will shield you from contracting communicable diseases because you are all alone in a comfortable atmosphere. My neighbor's behavior has made me focus only on crypto casinos because I am scared of my health. Don't get me wrong there are many well-built and very comfortable physical casinos that offer quality services, but when you are an online gambler you will not need to worry about the health concerns of fellow gamblers.

You are right OP when it comes to health matters of this nature, no one can tell what the next person standing by is carrying until you get close to them before you could notice their ailment. That is why it is advisable to avoid poorly ventilated places with large crowd because of things of this nature. In such gathering, people of different kinds of sicknesses come together with just a uniting factor which is gambling but wisdom demands that you as a gambler protect yourself and prioritise your safety.

OP I think it would have been better you look into this https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5472378.340 as it is a topic already created with this headings. It would have been nice you had continued your discussion as it relates to health matters and benefits there.

347  Economy / Gambling / Re: 🍍Pineapple Poker| Experience Revolutionary P2P Poker on Telegram🍍 on: February 02, 2024, 08:56:11 PM
Welcome to the forum!

I have been seeing for quite sometime that gambling new ventures are now coming up with Telegram based casinos. I am not against those casinos or games, but my question is why? Telegram has a bad reputation of scams and such promotions will give anyone  with first hand impression that they are not to be trusted.

Why not try to invest some money on a self hosted website and hire a game provider and then promote it. Usually these kind of telegram gambling games don't get the usual hype as a self hosted, ready for marketing casinos get. Please stop coming up with such gambling products as you will hardly find any takers from the forum.

Telegram indeed has a bad reputation, but it also has a reputation of being one of the most used messenger applications by certain groups on the internet, one of them being the holders of Bitcoin and alternative currencies.
I don't know who came/arrived first to the application: the scammers or the legitimate cryptocurrency users.
There must be a reason why even Telegram has tried to implement Bitcoin, USDT and their TON to Telegram in the form of a wallet and explorer. I mean, there is even a P2P integrated in the application. So my best guess is that people behind Telegram realized many of their users are into Bitcoin and Alternative currencies.
If that is the case, then it makes sense a casino would try to step in this alledgely fertile land and see how it goes. Though, because of the reputation about scammers being completely true, this casino better have a very good security system and methodically scan their code or implement some bug disclosing bounty for white hat hackers to help them out, otherwise, this could end up being a bad experience for them and their users. Let us see how these kind of casinos go and how much time they stay up without the interference of authorities.

Obviously, I was wondering too because it is well known that telegram already got a bad reputation for themselves because of what scammers do on their platform.  Gamblers might likely avoid their games If they had already got a bad experience with the platform and would do everything to stay away and people like that who like poker but because of their experience with telegram would not think of this poker game but if it has a web version then it would be nice to engage.
It is true that telegram has the highest number of users in the world and as a matter of fact organisations would want to take advantage of the platform and to grow their various businesses while showcasing it to the world for services. All I would advise is that they strengthen their security so that scammers can not take advantage of their presence to rip off people of their hard earned resources.

True, I mean... I am not suggesting we are supposed to ignore the reputation of Telegram and the seemingly high amount of scammers there seems to be on there. Actually, If I could, I would encourage everyone who uses Telegram to do their own research and investigate the kind of scams which are the most common to take place there, so they will not fall for them.  To me, Telegram being so attractive for scammers certainly has something to do with the high anonymity in the application, unlike Whatsapp people do not need to register their phone number for them to have an account.
Anyways, As Telegram casinos continue to become more popular among those gambler who also like Telegram, obviously there will be more scammers in the app who will try to target the casino users, through phishing and the usual impersonation tactics used in emails and private messages. Because Telegram uses an integrated Hot wallet, then it would be relatively easy for scammers to convince victims to compromise their money. It is different for being targeted by scammers and having the money locked in a hardware wallet, it is less likely for them to get away with the thievery...
I have always thought that common sense and triple checking in more than enough to best most of the scam attempts running rampant in telegram and social media. I wished more people had a strong common sense and less greed. 

Not really, we are not ignoring the reputation of telegram and their services but only looking at the measures telegram community or users put in place for their personal safety and protection of their account. We are very much aware of the nefarious act by scammers and hackers on the platform and come to talk of when the platform already integrated a wallet system into the app as a result of the large number of Crypto users who patronise their app and likely will use the wallet since it is an all in one app. Imagine you losing your assets to scammers and hackers as a result of one's mistake in engaging with a stranger or clicking of links sent to their DM . This is the more reason why users needs be careful.
As  casinos are beginning to unravel their games on telegram platform, and gamblers deems it interesting and fun to do, they would definitely include it to the list of their numerous casinos they engage with and this alone would be a boom and would make the app more interesting as gamblers would definitely begin to make use of the telegram wallet and this alone would spike the activities of scammers and hackers so it would be in every users interest to protect their various accounts and privacy.

Welcome to bitcointalk platform. I see from comments and replies that you are trying as a new casino to be up and doing which I commend you for that but however, you will have things to fix up so as to gain more recognition here. Your announcement thread is not properly packaged. You will have to look into it to include graphics and other attractive pictures from your website so that it would interest members and attract  traffic to your casino which you desire.
However, I checked your website but I wasn't moved by what I saw. Your website is a bit dull and not welcoming. No visual, nothing attractive about it. I understand the fact that these does not matter when it comes to service delivery but some how it is necessary to keep the website a bit welcoming and attractive so that prospective clients would be interested and have that urge to continue further with you casino. Do not forget that first approach matters.
349  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you believe visiting a seer or spiritual house could make you win a game? on: February 02, 2024, 07:50:31 PM
This may be the funniest hypothesis I have ever heard regarding methods of winning in gambling. But I am not surprised by it in general because I know that many people in different cultures believe in these superstitious beliefs. I would not be surprised if someone believes in its effectiveness in such matters, even if at the same time he is a follower of a religion that prohibits gambling.

This expresses the consequences that those obsessed with profit from gambling may reach in the most desperate situations. It is also funny that some of them consider this method effective for one type of game but not others.

I have no doubt that those desperate to making profit or recovering their losses would go to this extent to seek the help of a seer to win game. I think they sometimes do this as a result of frustration and obsession as you have said but however, I do not see anything bad if they believe and trust their seers but does it favour them as we think as I have never seen anyone here who is bold to say it.  Although I have heard of stories about it that people who go for such never returned the same way they went to seek the seers help to help them predict games to win.
350  Economy / Gambling / Re: Betnomi | Project status & Refund Plan! on: February 02, 2024, 05:25:19 PM
This is the reason why it is good to always be active and regular to constantly checking on your investment, assets or funds even platforms where you belong because there are always updates and information that could be of help to you if one is in such a situation of this nature.

If you have the funds in any of the gambling sites, it is important to keep active on the site and know about its latest updates and news, so that you don't miss put on any important information.

I keeping funds in the custody of a third party is the last thing I will ever do in this space. Be it casino or exchange, I would never make such a mistake. I have learnt several lessons enough to make me know that any funds or assets not in my custody does not belong to me  and as such  not your keys not your assets remains my reminder.
As you have said, it is pertinent that one keeps a constant check on their various casino website they are registered with to getting current updates on happenings so as not to be taken unawares of developments with respect them being a member of such platforms.
351  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you believe visiting a seer or spiritual house could make you win a game? on: February 02, 2024, 03:34:21 PM
So I was wondering if there is any connectivity here, or do you believe such could happen in your own situation? Can you do such a thing to win? Have you had the experience of going to such places to seek predictions on how the outcome or results of games could be if they worked in your favor or not? Have you had anyone say or tell you such before and how their experience was?
I believe it is just a coincidence if a gambler goes to a seer and is successful because no one knows the future, they only predict so it can be wrong as well as right, and if it is right it is just a coincidence.
In my country the practice of people going to shamans or seers to get advice on anything, not just gambling, is very much there, there are even certain areas where it is believed and people go there, and honestly, for me, they are quite stupid in doing that because if they want to get rich, from gambling or whatever then they have to work.
Gambling is enough to make your mind bad if you do it irresponsibly, plus going to seers or a spiritual house to find out about winning or to be able to win will further damage your mind. Gambling should be done responsibly and respond to it normally.
Most people believe in it and they also patronise their services  and in some cases, other engagements they have aside visiting for games results works out perfectly well for them. I will agree with you that it is a coincidence if a gambler goes to a seer and the seers prediction works out to be true, possibly, that seer must also be a good gambler good at predicting games too. That is absolutely a good one for the seer because he or she just got a customer who will forever remain grateful and loyal  to them for their services rendered.
352  Economy / Gambling / Re: MetaWin.com | The First WEB3 Casino on: February 02, 2024, 03:21:53 PM
You have a good graphics and user experience is what I can not say much about because I had to load and reload the website on several occasions and still yet battling to get registered on your casino platform. I am very much sure my country is not in your restricted list because I can access the website without VPN which makes me comfortable to continue with the registration but still yet I am having issues to open the registration form. I think you have to look into this and resolve any possible error within your end.
That problem with your website visit's probably got something to do with the Internet provider you've got, I think that it could be the cause for your experience and I think you can ask them about that, it's probably an ISP thing. They're also a fairly new website so they might be at an advantage to be able to bypass the ban list for some countries so keep that in mind because that can be a potential problem for you in the future. Have you tried it on your other devices too? That can be a helpful thing for you to see if the problem is on your end or their end.

Well I do not think my country is on the ban list neither is it prohibited from gambling sites but however, I think it has to do with the network provider from my end here as I now have access to the casino website. Possibly the other day, the issue was as a result of poor network coverage which I believe must have been resolved. Thank you for your feedback.
353  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you believe visiting a seer or spiritual house could make you win a game? on: February 01, 2024, 11:35:41 PM
Definitely not. I firmly believe sport game’s especially (football games) are being won based on how good and consistent a team can play. Depend on seers to win a game is just a myth believed mostly by Africans, which is entirely wrong and must be dissuaded. Rather more emphasis should be placed on tactical strategy which is a key factor in winning any game
In all my years in gambling, there are things I don't believe especially when they're superstitious in nature. For instance, I don't believe that there are people who sees the outcome of a game before the commensement of the game and there's nothing that'll make me have such belief. I've seen a lot of people who spend their hard earned money to visit spiritual houses just to get the future results of games and in most times still fail to win those games despite their visits to spiritual houses or spiritualists.  We as humans can only guess or analyze games considering the nature of the opponents and come up with a particular result but no one is absolutely sure if their predictions

Absolutely, no results or predictions are correct pending when the final whistle of a game is blown then the winner is announced.  Anybody telling you results or predicting outcomes of games is doing such out of their own logical reasoning and thinking. I have asked myself series of questions why is that those that predict matches loses it woefully but some who does not really go into games just do bet and all of a sudden wins very big and those that have been battling to win big are still there making loses upon loses back to back without any tangible results and still yet they are bent on gambling to win big.
354  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: 1xbit refuse to send me back my deposits on: February 01, 2024, 11:24:47 PM
So sorry about your experience with this casino. That has always been the complaints of newbie members. It is very known here that this casino is a scam casino and as such, members do avoid them. It is unfortunate that you already have been scammed by them and I think your Chance of recovering your funds are minimal because there are lots of pending scam accusations against them which are yet to be attended to. I think you should just accept it as your fate and move on.

So far this casino have one of my the strongest publicity. Their publication is very strong than others and this leads people to falling for them Nd not doing their own research before engaging with them and after that, they come here to complain just like you did now. It is just unfortunate though but we can not do anything about it.

Your theoretical findings are quite alright and I must say that the option of personality really is the worst of it all. Imagine you being looked down on as a gambling addict. People that once revered you before begin to ignore, disrespect and neglect you all because of the fact that they discovered you are a gambler and an addict. It's very much frustrating and makes one feels less of themselves. Most times, they are the topic of discussion and gossips which should not have been so but just because of the fact that they are gambling it turns out to be what they are talking about and it is very disheartening to see and hear such a thing.
356  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you take time to read the terms and conditions of casinos before registering? on: February 01, 2024, 10:06:24 PM
It is true that most casinos terms and conditions of service is very lengthy and it is also very important as well but due to the length of it, people do not bother going through it and they just get started with out the knowledge of what is written there. I believe that is what the casinos already know so they put most of the things that one can not do with there so that you do not have the time to read it you will just skip it and go further to register and when you start having issues they would tell you you consented on their terms of service so why complaining about it.

As for me, l read through to see for myself but if it happens that the terms and conditions is too much lengthy, I pin point to the important paragraphs such as KYC, withdrawal and deposit, and some vital information which is necessary I know before proceeding with registration and deposit.
357  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you believe visiting a seer or spiritual house could make you win a game? on: February 01, 2024, 09:56:01 PM
Recently, I have come across a post on this board that has to do with something related to superstitious beliefs and gambling. In the post, the poster was giving an instance where somebody's father gave him a game to play and he ignored it, and when the game ended, it happened that what he was given happened to be the result of the game, and the same thing repeated itself the second time where his father came again and asked him why he did not play the game and gave him another, which he failed to play again. However, I am meant to understand that some people go as far as visiting seers and the rest of the spiritual houses to help them play or see the outcome of the games they want to play so they can win big.

So I was wondering if there is any connectivity here, or do you believe such could happen in your own situation? Can you do such a thing to win? Have you had the experience of going to such places to seek predictions on how the outcome or results of games could be if they worked in your favor or not? Have you had anyone say or tell you such before and how their experience was?

Let us discuss and share your experience so that people could hear and learn from your  story in the quest for you to win a game that led you to doing or going that extra miles in such engagement.
It should be obvious with some common sense that trying to look for guidance with those people to try to win at gambling is a waste of time, otherwise they could use their abilities to win on their own and make a fortune this way, however this is probably one of the most common questions those people receive, which is why they give each person their lucky number, day or even year, and some go as far as to give away lottery numbers to anyone that asks.

Sometimes I wonder if those seers too do not see games that they could play or their power could not let them go play a game and win big or what?  And people too going to those places too can not ask themselves these questions or have as an deep thoughts on it before engaging with such. If not one should know that it is always a give and take scenario because nothing is free. You must pay the prize for what ever you want them to do for you.
358  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To what extent have you hated yourself due to your gambling losses? on: February 01, 2024, 06:56:23 PM
One thing we should know is that gambling is a game and in every game, there must be a winner and there must be a loser. Gambling as the name implies is a game of uncertainty. Gamblers takes thee risk and accept the results as it is hence gamblers are advised to gamble with the mindset of having fun and not to earn, gamble with what you can afford to lose and not what you are banking on to fetch you a return on profit, gamble responsibly and not aggressively.
I have never hated myself for loses because I already made up mind of the uncertainty that comes with gambling. Of I lose any game, it doesn't affect me because I play by the rules and principles of gambling. So I don't feel it that much when ever I gamble as I do it for fun.
359  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can gambling addiction lead to domestic violence? on: February 01, 2024, 06:12:34 PM
Definitely. There had been reports of addicted gamblers being violent. But even people who are not gamblers are going to get violent when they find themselves with nothing in their hands. People without money usually are hot-tempered.

In a home where a father has no job but wants to provide for their family can become violent. The reason why some are robbing banks and stealing is because off no money and a gambler without money can be as dangerous as a hungry jackal

Most times violence in the house can be as a result of idleness. When a man is idle and is supposed to be the bread winner of the house and he is not doing anything to support or back up the family, it annoys him and in most cases, he becomes hostile and aggressive just to  express his frustration. Doing this alone causes violence at home. Gamblers too vent their frustration at home violently when they loses games and this also results to violence in their house.
