<snip>
The notification is triggered by their bot to detect suspicious cheating accounts. Usually results are correct by perhaps nothing is perfect so sometimes a few users will receive incorrect notifications.

You must wait for their support answers to clear your case, abuse or not, then you can continue to use their service or stop it.
I think this is just a bug because I believe that the behavior of that automated email is that it'll only be triggered if the IP address of the new account matches the IP address of the other accounts. If not, there should be no such notification. So, it is indeed a bug assuming that he or she really did not create another account or use a VPN.
I already experience that thing a lot of times in different websites even though it's my first time to create an account there. Apart from a bug/glitch, maybe it is really possible that the other user has the same IP as us? Especially if we are using a free VPN service.

It's kinda alarming though getting those messages. We think we did commit a serious offense even if the truth isn't. Before I use such tools I of course read the platform's terms and conditions because I know that many of them won't allow it. Like what @OcTradism said, we can ignore the warning if we know to our selves that we are honest and let's hope issues like that won't occur anymore in the future.
One of my friends experienced such a glitch on a popular casino recently but his own was that he was able to create an account but he was mandated to very the account on opening while I have been playing on the site for a very long time and yet to come across KYC demands, and while he was explaining his problem to me, I quickly realized that is either he used VPN to access the site and the bot trigger up KYC in other to know the identity of the players or he may have registered using an IP that some else is using already, so I asked him if he experiences or used any of the two options to open the account but he said he did not use VPN but he can not ascertain whether someone else within the vicinity is using the same IP with him since he is using public internet connection via wifi in the office.

So then I told the friend that, the possibility is there that one of the members of the staffs gambling on that site and using the office internet., so the only option is for him to verify the account if he is convinced and trusts the casino to hand out his documents to them.
3422  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin documentaries that worth to watch on: July 13, 2023, 06:09:08 AM

I really appreciate these Bitcoin documentaries that both of you guys to help people gain more knowledge on Bitcoin through entertainment. With documentaries learning Bitcoin will be very easy for both adults and teens. You have made me to have a new strategy on how to give Bitcoin awareness to people in my locality that are curious to know about Bitcoin. I will use these videos to teach it so that they can understand better than all my bla bla. I will create out time and to watch them first to decide if they are good tools to teach a newbie about bitcoin
I agree with you on that because Bitcoin teaching has been one of the hard parts in educating people and creating awareness about Bitcoin but with all these movies and documentaries it will make the teaching process easy and smooth for both to the learner and the one teaching, but then also we must put into account the important of us attempting to first go through all the documentaries and video so that we can actually understand all it content because if you must know in teaching other about new technology you first need to have a well-defined understanding of the contents and the subjects therein so that you can easily pass on the right information since not all the aspects need to be thought some part can easily be left for the learner to discover by him/her self.

I for one i will benefit from all the list posted because recently a young girl of 19 years ask me to pass on some Bitcoin knowledge to her and since then I have been looking for ways to do that stress-free and I am sure this documentary is goi g to allow me the chance to easily point out the key vital points to her.

Due to the volatile nature of cryptocurrency, you can't be guaranteed of making such daily profits this is because the market is uncertain and at that, you will need to really get involved and apply some patience and just like must comment has already suggested,  you will have to look into investing in a more realistic asset like buying bitcoin and waiting for a few months to years to see the real impact.

Note: it is not as if investing in Bitcoin won't give you that amount of profit, but for you to amass such profits in Bitcoin l, then you will need to wait for some time and continue holding it because Bitcoin is the only secured long-term investment.
More also you may have suggestions like trading to give such $30 daily profits and even more than that, but you must also realize that you can lose all your money in the process since trading is high risk just like gambling,  and the other way to lose your money is through investment in a Ponzi because all of them promises 150% to 200% returned and all are plots just to deceive you into giving them your money and losing it without any excused 100% loses will be recorded.

So you have to buy Bitcoin and hold for the long term instead of looking for a quick daily return that could possibly end you in a painful reality and $7k is quite a good amount to start with if you ask me all that you need this to be more active here in the forum and try as much as possible to build your knowledge around Bitcoin and its possibilities and risk involved.

I am visiting l0tt0 website daily to see if there are any changes and I notice something interesting in last updates, this is showing that developer listened to our feedback we posted.

First I thought this is some error or bonus reward from dewez when I saw different email and amount of 0.026 BTC in my account, but then I realized this is maybe just demo account for testing games.
There are several new games added, Lucky 7s and Pick 6, but they cant be played for now and I cant log in my account.
Version on website is now showing 2.0 and it was 2.1 before.

It's interesting to know that the developer is working hard to improve the site, listing more games and giving gamblers a whole new experience, that's very commendable if I should say the least..

I great casino always have a demo version where gamblers can play the games listed on the casino with unreal currency, and like its real, most a times, it even acts as a motivator, many a times I can't even remember, I've ended up playing with real cash when I initially didn't want to, this was after playing on demo version and winning some good amount of money, I decided to try the real version to see if i could emulate the same luck, but unfortunately, it's most times not so, but I am always happy at the end of the day..

So a demo version of any casino is always to the casino's advantage, even if it doesn't seem like so.
This casino have indeed tried to put out they best foot ever since they interence into the market some time ago and including newer games abd other updated features that will make the casino more enjoyable to all is something we indeed need to commend them for and more also we need to really acknowledge their efforts in fhe area of promotion,  and i am sure in no time, the casino should be abke to build a good traffic channel that will propel their revenue generation and consistency of service.

Am still looking forward to see that their admin here in the forum will buy a copper member to that he can ve posting images of that development as their progress and mmakesure to post quality content that is limited or restricted to your current rank.
3425  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Motivating gambling addicts to invest in bitcoins. on: July 12, 2023, 10:06:29 PM
Most the gambling addicts will never have a thought on investment because to them it is not all about the profits but about the games they are addicted to, and if we say you want to advise them to invest in Bitcoin instead continues gambling it may look hard and impossible for them since losing money is already part of them. And if you are looking for to create a withdrawal alternative to gambling for the addicts it then means you may have to put in extra effort and introduce something that is less risky to them instead of investment because chances are there that they may use all the investment funds to gamble away again since they have access to the funds at all time being in the investment.
3426  Economy / Gambling / Re: Without money, does it still qualify as gambling? on: July 12, 2023, 08:24:15 PM
Anything that involves luck is for me a gamble and gambling leads to addiction if not taken as entertainment. When you are playing to check your luck and if it involves money then that kind of entertainment gives you an adrenaline rush. That rush gives you a sense of excitement and uncertainty that is proportional to taking a risk without knowing the end. Any kind of bet without money is still a bet and yes it qualifies as gambling. It seems OP has never placed a bet in his life which might be the reason OP created this thread.

Every individuals gamblers give a different meaning and approach to gambling and likewise the addiction nature of it, but when you're making an argument with someone about sport or any other matter of discussion is not yet a gambling until you made a bet on it, the money you place will make it what to take on for the bet on what you're discussing or arguing about, so without money some will tell you it's just an argument and not gambling until you place a bet with money involved.

Dunamisx is right on the involvement of money/bets that make it gambling and if you are only involved in just discussions without any attempt to make a stake it is just an argument in the long run because what gives it the excitement is the risk of bets and what you expect from those bets and their outcome. Gambling involves quite a lot of aspects and game speculations and discussions could help in decisions making when staking the bets but nothing other than that since one can not become an addict just by engaging in gambling-related discussions.
3427  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Gratitude should be an attitude on: July 12, 2023, 07:26:56 PM
Gratitude is a virtue everyone should work out for, its help the society. when the society is full of gratitude people. its develop quick. but when its full of ungrateful is sink quick, we must learn how to be grateful for people who do us good or give us helping hands in any point in time. with a grateful heart, the helper will extend his helping hands for other. but when there is no grateful heart, he might limit his hands. all is for the development of the society.
Being grateful indeed upon us up for a world of possibilities and this is what it take to revitalize yourself and keep being motivated to be able to stay ahead of the many challenges that comes our ways on daily basis and this is what we need at every step of the way,  I took a quick look at the op's profile and I can see the angle he is speaking from most especially when he mentioned haters in advance because along the line the ops lost his reputation by subscribing to promote a scam casino which made him to get tagged with a red tag that ultimately damaged his reputation and ends his journey here in the forum,  but also it is indeed worthy to note that the place of gratitude can be more respected if you never make such mistake and paying for it in a hard way.

I guess ops was warned but because of weekly stipends, he ditched all that away.
3428  Economy / Gambling / Re: Whats happening with Betnomi? on: July 12, 2023, 07:18:46 PM
For the main time everyone needs to avoid Betnomi to see if they're coming back again and rectify all the issues or be on the safer side by avoiding the casino because this may be a clear case of exit from the market,  just like a few members have mentioned in the comment it clear that the gambling industry is becoming a highly competitive one and at that, most of the casinos that lack liquidities could easily close their doors to business since there will not be able to meet up with the operational cost to keep the casino running.

One of the major setbacks for educated eligible bachelors is lack of finances and economic stability,  because since most of the guys are well educated on the responsibility that accompanied marriage they tend to wait until they are financially stable before thinking of settling down to take family responsibilities but then also we have to take into account the large increase in marriage demands among the uneducated ones because we also notice a trend in the population projections and current realities have uncovered that fact that the issues of marriage among young eligible adults.

I think Tottenham will eventually sell him before the start of next season. They have been very active in bringing in players this early maybe in preparation of Kane's departure from the club. I think there will be another offer and negotiation between the two teams.

It very much depends on no. of clubs interested in Harry Kane. Right now Bayern are the only one that seems to be interested and they are still bidding way below how much Spurs value their star player. It's 100m Euro atleast for a player that scores and assists a lot so I would say even though it is bit high for some of the clubs, Kane is a really a great team player and world class striker so his price tag is justifiable.

 I actually really love to see Kane in PL so I don't actually want him to go, maybe to other PL club-that's OK but no to some other league please.
I also really love if him still continue playing in europa PL, but as you said only Bayern Munich are interested in signing Kane. Previously, there were rumors Manchester United also want Kane services, but Tottenham reportedly did not want to sell Kane to a club in the same league. So maybe Kane will most likely go to another league, but Bayern Munich are also likely to fail to get Kane, because the rumor they were only able to recruit Kane below the value that Tottenham had want.
There have been several rumours of Manchester United making attempts to sign cane and ad the present time and development,  Manchester united have art a good market stage and if all their transfers and players signing arrangements goes as planned then we can be sure that Manchester united is going to have an outstanding outing in this current season and at the same time other top clubs who will also be making plans to bring onboard a handful of new players to better their lots in this season and going forward.
3431  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin to $120k next year - by Robert Kiyosaki on: July 12, 2023, 06:15:33 PM
Robert Kiyosaki is somebody that is very vas in economics and has written quite a good number of books but then also he is still a newbie in Bitcoin and Bitcoin speculations,  there is no gain saying that USD is losing its value due to inflation but we have to understand that USD will never die and would remain world exchange currency even though its value has been heavily affected by the raising inflation and money printing spread.

But will increase in its value regardless of what becomes of USD and Bitcoin doesn't have to kill any fiat currency to achieve its own growth.
3432  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Nigerian crypto tax move is ‘premature’ — Local stakeholders on: July 12, 2023, 04:56:34 PM
We have people of wisdom in Nigeria, but why the process to do something correctly is hard in the country. Nigeria need to be fast on regulating cryptocurrencies. The suspended CBN president failed to see how Nigeria government will earn from regulating cryptocurrencies, how cryptocurrencies will increase Nigeria economic growth and development and how it will increase employment. Even without regulation, employment increased and many Nigerians depends on crypto job as of today.

Our problem for this country just circle round the former CBN governor, dat guy was a cancer in our economy. Nothing wey him do wey favor the economy of the country. Na only to dey put laws wey go take us backwards na wetin sabi. What's the need of taxing crypto when it isn't regulated in the county. Na only money mata wey we dey rush sign, we no go do the one wey go make the citizens survive and encourage more business and people to enter the cryptocurency market. E dey do me like say the government rush passed that taxation bills so dem fit dey suck all this crypto companies wey dey country dry.

Dem no go create a conducive environment for business to prosper with regulations yet dem wan dey tax dem. The taxation no be bad thing oh like e good say government dey take tax as na very good way for government to dey gather money way dem go use package the country but what about the regulations of the industry. To do business for this country na big wahala. As of now the taxation wasn't necessary or abi US dun passed their own taxation bill because this country sabi follow follow (maybe na why dem hurry go pass the bill). Anyway sha I just hope say as the taxation bill dey take effect e go make governments to begin reason regulating the industry.
Truth be told and I concur with what brainboss said because former CBN governor Godwin Emefele really bastardized the Nigeria economy for this space of 8/years because all his monetary policies have really dragged the country economy backwards because instead of him adopting and regulating cryptocurrencies even though decentralized coins like bitcoin can't be regulated unless for it services such as exchange and other crypto payment gateways,  where the government could possibly generate income taxes,  the central bank governor have done a lot of bad policy implementation and unless the current CBN governor make attempts to correct those anomalies and effect a new law.

Because of the actions of the CBN under Godwin Emefele, the financial system has witnessed a lot of bad policies which some of them already summer suited e.g the cashless policy that the CBN governor used to launder huge amounts and thereby subjecting Nigerians to undue suffering for months, anyways let us hope that the new CBN governor will make an adjustment to this and come off with a more crypto-friendly policy that will bring in a lot of opportunity to the citizens and having a positive impact on the economy in general.
3433  Economy / Gambling / Re: Without money, does it still qualify as gambling? on: July 12, 2023, 04:45:29 PM


Of course, we as players, as traders, will always find ourselves on occasions with many places where we will see demo accounts, play money and everything that has to do with what is demo, which is not bad, it is taken into consideration that a person when you don't know how to make a bet, the demo mode is your salvation, because it doesn't matter if you lose money, it's a demo mode, the money is fictitious, it's also for that, to learn how to use the tools that the casino offers in a game specific, the same happens with exchanges, there are many tools, and you can try all of them and learn to use them.

Casinos and exchanges have this point in common, that they have demo mode or play money, for me it is super important that in demo mode of an exchange you can operate first, and in casinos once you have full knowledge of how to play so that they venture into the real mode with real money.

Well you are very correct and that is why we refers to casino and exchange as sister service providers because future trading is same as gambling because you risk losing all at some point and this have made many newbies to both trading and gambling to have similar experiences and because of experience many of them have lost good money because the did not not know or master the act of gambling or trading between demo account and the real live games. After all, this is two different things and at that, we must learn the difference between both of them.

I use to play a demo game and I have almost 80% winning chances at that, I thought the same will apply to the next real live games and thereafter most of my bets were all lost. 
3434  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What role have altcoins played in cryptocurrency industry on: July 12, 2023, 03:05:56 PM
You know what's the funniest thing? If you read this forum for too long, you might get the impression that everyone here is a cousin of Satoshi Nakamoto or something like that. And while others are arguing about conspiracy theories and searching for digital gold, I dare to mention a project like NeonLink.

Well, not that everyone is acting like Satoshi's cousin just because their thoughts and speech are all in favor of Bitcoin here in the forum, what you must know is that this forum is a Bitcoin discussion forum so the majority of the discussion here involves Bitcoin, but it doesn't mean that we don't have altcoin discussion and not also undermining the role altcoins play in the cryptocurrency industry and how altcoins aid Bitcoin popularity and also provide an alternative for cryptocurrency scalabilities.

So don't get it twisted many of us here are well aware of the boundaries and tin line between Bitcoin and other coins and we align our discussion with that from time to time.
3435  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If bitcoin according to Satoshi is digital money then why call it investment. on: July 12, 2023, 02:50:33 PM
Even though Satoshi stated that Bitcoin is a p2p electronic cash it doesn't elude Bitcoin's other side features such as volatility and limited supply which have madeBitcoin'sn value increase insistently, this made it become more of an asset since one can simply hold Bitcoin and benefit from it value volatilities either ups or down.

More also, bitcoin has not attained the global adoption, and it could be easily used as a currency because not many merchants or businesses are accepting Bitcoin as a form of payment for goods or services.

I don't understand why you're already marketing your website even though it is not yet complete. There is still a lot of dummy data found on every page of your site. Wouldn't it be better for you to finish it first and then market it later, once it's done? The odd thing is that you're already asking people to register and start playing. How do you plan to earn trust by doing that?
Well, he definitely didn't think everything through and didn't have a proper launch plan, which is the reason behind all this. If he had planned everything out properly and did everything as per the plan, he would first get the website ready, then get a proper ANN done, and then he would go for the launch and ask members to sign up and start using the platform. All this shows unprofessionalism but I hope that he understands and acts on this.

It will be much better for the future of his platform if he just puts a pause on this and make the site go under maintenance and only relaunch when everything is already done, and meanwhile, he should also get the ANN done by then so that he can update the ANN along with the platform.

   
      i will get ANN after remove some error and updating this platform
I think this thread already serves as an ANN thread if you really mean business you can update the thread with realistic information that will give you a positive image here in the forum because from the look of things you are still far from achieving since you do not have a copper members account and also having a lot of misconceptions that you need to clear up in the long run.

But I welcome and since you stated that you are ready to correct all the error that is standing against your development and making the platform look unreal to many persons here including myself even though we have no choice but to welcome you for now and looking forward to seeing when you finally correct every error and come out clean.
3437  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Referral bonuses are waste of time on: July 12, 2023, 08:49:44 AM
It is a shame that bonuses are not really considered seriously by the sites, as if they were something optional or just a gesture of good-will. A bonus is an agreement for someone influencing their friends or other people and promoting you image. That is not free and it takes time so if the site then scams or re-thinks is reason enough to provide public feedback and negative trust.
You are right the referral bonuses are payments for individual efforts at the end of the month and the casino is not in any way doing you a favour and they are paying you for your efforts because is not an easy task to build a referee network and they must also be actively watered for you to be able to get a good amount in referral earnings and commission and this is more also about teamwork.

So referral system takes a lot of participants but the only way the casino may do play a favour is when the bonus comes in the form of a welcome bonus,  that way the casino is doing the player a favour but even at that casino still imposes higher wagering requirements on welcome bonuses.
3438  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How I waste bitcoin on: July 12, 2023, 08:39:55 AM
I am a Nigerian and I know how Nigerians behave. And as at 2011, the value of N100k was very high that it could buy you a plot of land in some mini cities. There is no how you will invest N100k by then as a Nigerian and became carefree about it.

By that time you mentioned, it is only a few people that could invest more than N10k in an online business they consider a ponzi scheme.  I am sorry, I do not believe your story.
I was about to mention that also because the story looks like a made-up story because I also from the same region know the extent to which bitcoin adoption and awareness have gone in Nigeria for ops to have invested 100k into bitcoin as far back as 2011 when bitcoin was still trying to gain users attention and at a low price,  there is no possibility that the ops would invest such amount in bitcoin and entirely forget to preserve the private keys to that wallet.

Ops need to come up with a more clear statement unless he is just dealing with and living in an imaginary world,  and even at that,  the reality is that he will have to know that only the private keys to the wallet prove ownership of the funds in it.

Mauricio Pochettino, the current Chelsea manager, getting acquainted with his players, he has confirmed that he intends to meets the Ukraine international, Mykhailo Mudryk before the club departs for pre-season. Pochettino began his new job as Blues manager this week, taking over for Graham Potter. "I'm going to meet Mudryk before he comes to pre-season," Pochettino added.
"I really like to see and know him, and then design the best strategy to help him reach the level that Chelsea expects."

This is a good step towards changing the current situation of the team. It is good to know he is getting acquainted with the players and creating an atmosphere for team work and togetherness. Maybe this could help Mykhailo Mudryk finally find comfort and feel at home at the North London club. Chelsea supporters will be hoping  Pochettino to get it right this time and return the club back to winning ways again.
Most of the clubs that u der performed in the last season are really taking concus step to liberate and improve their club positions in the current season,  as we see Chelsea signing a couple of good players in other to fill the vacuum that has been responsible for the club poor performance in the last couple of seasons now.

Not only Chelsea that is making such a good step, but other clubs like Everton just signed a new player Asley Young who just concluded his medical earlier today and the club confirmed having him today.
3440  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: misuse of Bitcoin by the Nigerian politicians on: July 11, 2023, 07:17:44 PM
My take on this issues is that no matter how they tried to hide bio or mio in their wallet through bitcoin one day it will still reveal itself that they are looting funds. We know that is a decentralized platform whereby we can't trace or track them so they must sign up in exchange to buy it them selves but through their kyc exchanger may still know that a prominent politicians owns such amount in their account. And even if they thought of buying it through p2p there are some fellow youths who would still come reveal about their transaction with such politicians. Currently I know that youths are angry and if they discovered such thing they will raise alarm to Nigerians how politicians are using our money to buy bitcoin in other for them to loot.
One of the major reasons why most countries government are having missfeelings about Bitcoin is due to the possibility of the politicians using Bitcoin to melt away national wealth,  but not knowing that politicians have employed a lot of alternative ways to steal money without traces aside from using bitcoin since it can still be traceable to them.

More also you are right that the decentralized nature of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies that we have around have made privacy really achieved for some limits and most of the corrupt politicians are aware of that and they are holding huge amount in both Bitcoin and other coins,  I remember when cryptocurrency was first attacked in Nigeria,  we had a lot of politicians with cryptocurrency trading apps on the mobile devices so it shows that they already know what the new development really is.
