So, if you had the opportunity to invest your money into something would it be to start up something regardless of the amount of risks that come with it, or would you rather open a business or make a simple investment into assets?

 

If you have zero talent on business management then I suggest investing on a certain asset is much better and let the other skill guy work for you while you are just ripping off profits while doing your job or other things. I once planned to open a business and become successful because I have a partner that can manage it for me but I will definitely don’t pursue it if I will be the one who will be managing it.

You should assess yourself first before you can decide whether starting business by yourself is more profitable than investing on assets. Entrepreneurship is really great profit generator but it requires special skills that’s why not everyone on this industry becomes successful. Some entrepreneurs lose hard because of poor management skills.
342  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you invest on this kind of offer? on: February 02, 2024, 12:40:27 PM

PS: This is not real bankroll offer but just a hypothetical idea just to know if the community will like this kind of offer. This is only possible for user that has good reputation since trust is the main issue here. This method might help someone who regularly loan for gambling to stop paying loan interest in exchange of profit sharing.

If you will escrow your funds to a trusted escrow here then this offer might be spooked without relying solely on trust. Even though reputable user gone rogue in the effect of gambling addiction so it’s better to ensure investors safety always if you want someone who will ride on this offer.

One word. yogg ! He is a very reputable user and the creator of Coldkey yet he decided to ruin his account reputation including his product just because he becomes addicted on gambling. Let’s stop creating more yogg in the forum by relying only with trust when money is involved.

I’m not sure if this question is already raised here so just reply me the link to the post if there is.

What’s the oracle being use to determine the price of Bitcoin? The time frame for each round is kinda short that makes it very hard to have a good analysis for predictions. Afaik the game is like the pancakeswap prediction games but the only difference is the price is base on Bitcoin price.

I’m interested to know how to verify the price shown in the casino to validate authenticity of the result. I hope there’s an option of different time frame for each bet since the round is too short. I really like the SFX of the game because it add more excitement while playing.

Maybe some free tokens here to try the casino?  Wink

Hindi na sya prominent na scam na sya nakakaagtaka na di nya ito na forsee kasi pag ikaw isang kang famous vlogger ng Crypto alam mo ang mga kalakaran dito unfortunately nalusutan sya nito, pwede pa nga sya sisihin ng mga nag invest kasi platform nya at pangalan ang ginamit, kaya mahirap mah tiwala sa mga vlogger sa Crypto magaling sila mag hype ng mga project, na kalimitan nagiging scam o shitcoin.
Matagal na akong tumigil sa panonod sa kanila iba rin yung sarili mong analysis kaysa maniwala sa hype ng mga influencers.

Probably partner sya ng project na ito na later on naging scam. Popular yung ganitong scenario sa crypto project kagaya ng nangyari sa FTX na yung CEO mismo ang nagnakaw ng funds kasama na ang funds dedicated sa team.

Ang nakakatuwa lang sa mga story na ganito ay si Tulfo ang nagiging tga singil ng mga nascam kaya malakas ang loob ng iba na pumasok sa ganitong investment dahil alam nilang may makakapitan kagaya ni Tulfo. Yung mga ganitong influencer na nasscam ay sureball na mga pavictim nalang din kahit na may mga losses din sa side nila since may mga salary sila sa pagpromote ng project before pa ito tumakbo.

Comparing head-to-head of the two competing teams to analyze odds is often done by gamblers. I also usually do that research first. but as you said, that is not the main reference in determining bets.
The head-to-head of the two teams may apply to the team's performance which has not changed much. We can see that from several previous seasons. because we often see a team that appeared very strong last season, even becoming champion. but when the new season started they had problems with the team. whether it's a change of coach or the departure of several players which affects the team's performance in the new season.
So we can analyze the team's performance in several matches as a reference rather than head-to-head where changes may occur.

Head to head comparison usually done with the recent matches as reference. The only time your comment is valid is when the season is newly started that means there’s no recent matches for them to be compared that gives analysts resort to what’s available record.

There’s really a possibility that a team improves from the previous season but bookmaker usually aware on this that makes the odds adjust based on the current speculation of the majority. Head to head comparisons is still the best because it shows how team perform in the presence of same team. I’d rather use this reference if there’s no closest data available rather than bet blindly based on a hunch using social media comments and opinions.
346  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Proverbs and Sayings that Act as Triggers to Gambling on: February 01, 2024, 03:00:00 PM

What other proverbs or sayings could potentially act as triggers, enticing individuals to initiate or perpetuate their gambling activities?

No pain No gain. I’m always using this in different circumstances but most of the time during my exercise on gym but since I’m always using this logic whenever I encounter hardships I sometimes applying it on gambling naturally especially when I’m looking forward to hit some huge win out of my small bankroll.

I consider my initial loss as pain then I need to bear with it until I gain(hit huge win). So far this is not really working for me but this proverb is the main culprit on why I’m gambling hard sometimes.
347  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy the DIP, and HODL! on: January 31, 2024, 11:35:54 AM
Actually there's nothing wrong at buying whenever you have the money available but I think what he/she meant by timing the market is just by buying at each dip that occurs, take for instance a week+ ago bitcoin price moved up to $47,000+ and after a while dropped to $39,000 then later took a leap to around $43/42,000+ right now (as at the time am writing this). For a investor that is timing the market he/she will know that $39k is a right time to buy because the price will surely move up again for him to make profit and for sure it did moved from $39k to $43k, so isn't it a right timer for any investor? We know the market is unpredictable but there are moves that we will critically observe and we won't need a fortuneteller to tell us what could happen next, only experience will tell.

You’re suggestion is not wrong because that’s really an efficient way to accumulate but not all people have a good patience on waiting and the luxury to frequently check the price like me due to the nature of my work.

I usually purchased whenever I’m feeling that price is decreased a little bit while I have spare money that I can use to purchased Bitcoin. Not always I have free money since I have other things to do with my money especially if I’m currently not using it because I can always wait for my salary to get another money that I can dedicate for whatever stuff that I failed to buy before. That’s why I always purchased whenever I feel like I don’t have anything to do with my spare money aside from buying Bitcoin instead of wasting my time waiting for the perfect dump while we all know that Bitcoin price will surely grow astronomically in the future. I’m investing and not trading so I don’t care about minor price difference of my buy if the end goal is still the same.

I believe more on hugas kamay sya dito since ginamit nya ang influenced nya sa mga follower nya para maginvest while he was being paid by scammer to do so. May responsibility sya na paalalahanan ang mga follower nya and at the same time suriin mabuti ang project bago nya ipromote.

Maraming ganitong kaso sa US against sa mga artist at influencers dahils sa pagiging involved sa mga scam project gamit ang kanilang influence since hindi naman magiinvest ang mga tao kung hindi dahil sa kanila. Sa pagkakaalam ko ay sobrang daming mga scam project na ang napromote ng taong ito in the past pero patuloy pa dn sya dahil wala naman nagfifilie ng charges sa kanya. Kaya dapat talaga mas lalong humigpit ang batas para sa mga influencer lalo na yung mga nagpro2mote ng scam casino sa mga content nila.

Anyway, thanks for sharing, although I believe that everyone is already knowledgeable about this, but there might be some who are greedy ignorance who thinks they found an opportunity to make an easy money.

It’s really impossible to get a victim here in the forum because everyone here is open minded to easily determine scam attempt due to many users keep reminding everyone on post or threads.

But it’s different scenario on social media such as facebook, x and telegram which many user are still dumb enough to determine if they are sending money to a scammer. There’s still a lot of newbie outside the forum that easily become a victim of this due to the narrative of this scammer is tricky for person that want a quick profit. Same example to those traders that still investing on shitcoin that doesn’t have real utility yet everyone keeps jumping for the sake of quick profit.

Quote
In football, insider trading could involve a player, coach, or other official using confidential information, such as team news, injuries, or other details about the match, to place bets on the outcome of the game. This could potentially give them an unfair advantage and compromise the integrity of the game.

Aren't team news, injuries, and other match details usually openly available on the internet and through sports bookies for gamblers to use when placing bets?. Also, do these officials typically place their bets through sports bookies or among themselves?

 


In some sports, It’s required to disclose all the changes such as injuries, trade and other information in advance or else they will be disqualified for the game. I’m not confident if this is applicable to all the sports league though.

This insider info is true. Just like fixed matches, some sports manager benefit on this info because bookmaker is not aware for this changes when they are making the book odds in advance. This is the reason why the live odds sometimes have a significant change’s compared to the prematch odds even though the game is not yet started. Bookmaker usually provide odds based on stats available online and other info usually have delay before they release in the public because it needs to be finalized first.

I don't know how your code works, but since you dare to publish the code behind your casino, then I think it is a good intention about fairness in the game that you have. I hope someone who understands coding can comment on the coding you have


I’m not a coder myself but I’m familiar on what’s the goal of seeding event is to show that the game itself is fair by showing the game source code. Their game will start operating when the target block is mine.

Although this kind of code transparency is still not convincing in the eyes of non-coder but this event is very important to show that their game is really probably fair. What I just notice that the code on this casino games is significantly short and less detailed compared to other casino seeding event that launched here. Let’s wait expert user here to check and verify their code.

Congratulations in advance to Yummygame for the upcoming launch. Wish you a good luck!

Yung Gcash at Paymaya parang mga ini encourage nila mga user nila na mag sugal. Alam ko kayo rin kapag  magbubukas kayo ng app ng paymaya or gcash ang bubungad agad sainyo yung banner ng BingoPlus or Sportplus. Okay lang sana kung nasa mga options option lang e, hindi e pagbukas mo ng add na agad sa harapan mo. Instant ang cash in pero pag cash out maghihintay ka pa ng mga ilang minuto. For sure itong mga paymaya at gcash kumita sa mga ganito banner banner. Tang ina yung gcash lang naka enable yung Adsense sa kanila. Sa kanilang ako nakakita na e-wallet na naka enable yung Adsense. Kulang pa ba yung kinikita nila? Kaya marami din nahahack na gcash user dahil din sa mga gawa nila.

Just in. Kakatalo ko lng dahil sa leche na Bingoplus na ito dahil nahikayat ako maglaro pagkakita ko sa gcash app ko. Sobrang cancer ng Gcash dahil pina front pa nila yung ganitong sugal lalo na sa mga user na umiiwas sa sugal. Nadala na ako sa Okbet kaya sumubok ako dito pero sobrang bilis ko na naubos yung pera ko dahil ang taas ng minimum nila sa live games while sobrang panget ng mga slot games na offer nila.

Never again ako sa casino na ito pati sa mga local online casino natin na sobrang pangit ng mga games at services. Sana mapetition itong gcash na tanggalin na ang mga sugal sa games category nila dahil sobrang damage nito sa mga problematic gambler or naka abstain mode na kagaya ko. Saglit lang naubos 9k kakabet sa color game at live games na walang tama.  Cheesy
354  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2024 NBA Season on: January 23, 2024, 02:55:05 PM
It was a phenomenal performance by Embiid, but I wouldn't hold out much hope that he can do it again, as such performances are extremely rare. For most NBA players, such a result per game is impossible to achieve, and the top players, as a rule, manage to achieve such results once or at most twice in their careers.
p.s.

He can possibly do it again on team like Piston or Spurs. His score only shows that his teammates don’t contribute much on the game because they are just a head by 10pts with that kind of monster scoring. He also get 20+ point on free throw alone which show how amateur the enemy is on defending him.

Quote
In this picture, he definitely looks exhausted after such an amazing performance.

Who will not? Hahaha. He is a center which means his game is more physical in able to get a score. I’m sure his whole body is aching right now due to the extreme fatigue and probably he might be slow down on his next game.

On the other side, It’s impressive performance for Wemby despite he is facing a monster like Embiid. They still manage to have a tough battle despite the high scoring of Embiid.

Nagrequest ako sa pouch.ph ng updated location ng mga stores nila sa Boracay at confirmed na nagreduce talaga sila ng accepted stores. Itong mga list below yung active stores nila. Gamit nalang kayo ng gmaps para exact location.

There are still many businesses accepting bitcoin though!

For great travel service that bypasses the line when arriving/leaving, we recommend:
- Kamri Tours (I believe they can accept bitcoin to book watersports & activities as well!)

For hotels, we recommend:
- The Lazy Dog Bed & Breakfast
- Ralph's Place

For restaurants, we recommend:
- Steampunk
- Meze Wrap
- Laketown
- 2 Brown Boys
- Aplaya
- Royal Indian Curry House (RICH)

For great coffee and a great convenience store, we recommend:
- Kape Drip (but please note that it's far north of everything, closer to diniwid beach, but it's a beautiful walk up the beach!)
356  Local / Pilipinas / 🔥 Bitcoin Accepted Store Spotted 🔥 on: January 21, 2024, 12:53:32 AM
Recently ay galing ako sa Boracay specifically sa Station 1 para sa vacation at isa sa hinanap ko ay yung mga business establishment na tumatanggap ng Bitcoin as payment. Sadly nilobot ko na lahat ng store sa Station 1 at part ng Station 2 ay wala pa dn ako na makita na accepted ang Bitcoin.

Naisip ko gawin itong thread para maging guide ng mga kabayan natin para sa location ng mga physical business establishments na tumatanggap ng Bitcoin. Nais ko na icompile ang mga business sa pinas na tumatanggap ng Bitcoin as payment dito sa thread natin.

Maaari kayo mag post dito once may spot kayo na physical business na accepted ang Bitcoin para maging guide sa atin Bitcoin user at para na dn mapromote ang kabayan natin na pro Bitcoin.

Gamitin lamang ang format:

Code:
Picture ng store:
Link ng exact coordinates sa google map:
Accepted Crypto Currency(If other crypto is available):
Experience nyo sa store:


PS: Gamitin lamang ang thread para sa discussion ng mga physical store at bawal ang off-topic. I note nyo din kung red flag yung store para maiwasan natin.

357  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Wolf.bet not paying out winnings (at the moment) on: January 21, 2024, 12:26:06 AM
update:
Right now the situation is this:
(i made four screenshots of what the customer service keep telling me,
i dont know if i may include the screenshots here if not let me know so i don't get my post moderated/deleted, thanks.
as you can see in last screenshot the customer service, is telling me that it could take from 3 days up to 7 days to verify the winnings with the game
provider.


Hey mate according to what written on screenshot. They are telling the truth about the longer waiting for bets using 3rd party providers because the investigation is carried out by the 3rd party and not the casino itself so they are also waiting just like you. There’s a case like this in the past that took almost a month or more just to have a result from the game providers. The volume of customers from different casino makes the process slow so you really have no choice here than to wait.

I have an experience like this on Evolution Gaming which resulted to 2 weeks of waiting before they refund the money for my missing bet. The issue is very easy to resolve if they have few customers but the volume of pending tickets makes the process very slow. What the casino reps gave you is just an estimated date not an accurate date.




Also casino might take up to 6 months if they will investigate further your account for potential cheating aside from the 3rd party result. Just a heads up because this kind of issue is very slow to progress if your case has a clear indication of cheating for them.

358  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Increased Gambling Risk for the Younger Generation on: January 21, 2024, 12:13:25 AM
With the easy accessibility of the online gambling sites and tools, the younger generation is more involved in gambling. The risk for them is not only that they will lose money but gambling at such a high rate and at the age of teenage will cause them a lot of problems like lack of physical activity or no interest in the studies as they will more inclined to get easy entertainment in the form of gambling.

Gambling is not that really a big deal on young generation because they have limited source of money so the chances for them to become addicted is much lower compared to computer games, alcohol, and other recreational activities that involves socialization. The only reason why it’s a big deal for us is we are involved closely on gambling but if we think  zoom out here, life is still pretty normal even with the existence of online gambling.

Besides KCY will make this kid keep away on gambling there’s already a selfie verification that will them detected by the casino once their account was requested to KYC. I will be more on cautious for my child to get addicted on illegal drugs rather than gambling because they will never be interested on gambling if they don’t have a lot of spare money and have friends for their social life.

Quote
The most effective way to address this issue is for the parents and teachers to play their part and convince the young generation the do and don't of gambling and how it can harm our personality and life if we are addicted to it.

This is really the best way but the problem is how will you detect your child doing gambling because there’s a high chance that they will do this secretly instead of being transparent with their parents. The best way to deal with this is to limit their finances up to the point that they will have no spare money for gambling.
359  Economy / Gambling / Re: TrustDice's x5 wager requirement only applies to the 1st deposit on: January 03, 2024, 07:03:33 PM

I am in fact sorry about having to have this post aside from our mega thread. And I have to do this due to the ongoing misinformation circulating on this sub with regard to our wager requirement for the 1st deposit.

Our ToS reads:
5.10 In order to make a withdrawal, a player must wager at least 5x the 1st deposit amount from deposits.



It’s still doesn’t change the fact that you have x5 wagering requirements on deposit which the thread you included is claiming. This is a major problem for people who doesn’t notice your ToS and deposit an amount which they find it hard to wager x5 just to simply withdraw their balance without even taking any promotion.

This x5 is always controversial aspect of your casino. Why not change it to the regular x1 for every deposit given the fact that this rules of yours is always being subject to misinformation?

Duelbits has a tons of whale players.

But I’m curious if there’s player here that will be competitive enough to get a spot in Duelbits.

I believe we have better chance to win a raffle type promotion instead to a competition against whale due to the volume of players on Duelbits is insane high!
