it really makes me excited, but only at certain times, for example when the game goes according to my predictions. it doesn't always make me excited because i think that gambling is just a fad, it's not a reason for me to enjoy it completely. because i also believe that gambling is not always profitable, at some times it may not go according to what i want and that is what makes me sometimes not too excited.
I am not that excited because of gambling directly but I am excited because of the good feeling I have while gambling. Gambling is fun to the extent that 3 hours can be like 30 minutes. But if using high amount of money to gamble, it can not be fun while losing, that is why I prefer to use small amount of money to gamble. I have noticed some of people that do not enjoy gambling is because they are wasting money on it and thinking it will bring huge return but the likelihood of huge return in gambling is very small and impossible for most people. |

People are going to experience different things depending on how they are gambling. If they are playing slots they will get that excited feeling on a big win, but if betting sports they may feel excited watching the team they bet on score. I think it might depend on the size of the bet for some as well.
You get the casino right. If the gambler is winning, they are excited. But in sport, the gambler is not just excited to be watching the match he staked on, the excitement is also from when the team he chose to win won or the match outcome he staked on come as expected. If he is losing the match, he will see not be excited as it should be even if the gambler uses low amount of money to bet on the match. Or maybe that is just happening to me. I hate to lose. |

It is better of you introduce the person to this bitcointalk discussion forum to learn by itself than you claiming professional to them while you are still a beginner.
Not everyone will know this forum. Ignorance also means you will think that you know it but ones you are seeing other people discussion, you will later know that you are newbie to what you thought that you know. But if someone know about this forum, it is good to tell friends about this forum. But that does not mean that you can not discuss about investment and share ideas. Not everyone that you introduce to this forum will even continue to be active while some people will not even bother to post or learn anything at all on this forum. |

If you check well, you will notice that NotATether is running a challenge of 14 days node running for 14 merits and that is why you see the 14 merits he gave recently. NotATether is not a random user who doesn't know how to issue merits. If he drops larger number of merits in a particular posts, check well, the post is worth it.
You are not getting me correctly. I saw NotATether's merit history and I know when he started that thread. I also know that he is sending 14 merits to the posts if people that posted what he wanted on the thread. But what I am saying is that instead of sending 14 merits, if he has little merit to send, he can reduce it so that he can send merit to more posts. Also I did not say NotATether is sending merits to poor posts but saying he can reduce the merits. He can reduce it from 14 to 10 or lesser. |

While I am not in danger of running out of sMerits any time soon, I am burning merits at a very fast rate and my current allocation is not replenishing fast enough to cover for it.
There are more active people on this forum. It will be good if theymos increase the merit allocation and also add more merit sources. But I can see that you are sending 14 merits each now and that may make your merit allocation to be not enough again. I will advice you to reduce the merit that you are sending so that you will have more posts to send merits to. |

But under 18 can find it difficult to use exchanges and platforms that are centralized. You are right because bitcoin is not centralized but decentralized and you can get your coins through decentralized exchanges or to buy it directly from someone selling bitcoin like such service offer on this forum.

Assuming that there is a lightning network transaction between two people and they want to make evidence to be available to another person as witness What's the use case here? Is it to be able to prove fraud, for instance when a seller says you didn't pay, while you say you did? Yes |

The two people that I know that take loan on this forum is not because of gambling or trading. It is used for house building purpose. They were both about to finish the house and think of collecting loan to finish it. I am talking about different people and different buildings but both are my friends.

What am trying to say is if it would be possible for a pop up or notice with link show in the homescreen directing the newbie to a thread they can introduce themselves and maybe get some ideas and knowledge about how the forum works.
A newbie can easily go through the pinned threads to see all that are needed like the forum rules, merits and activities, forum badges and others. A newbie that is serious can easily know all that. In beginners and help, this pinned thread is enough for newbies Newbies - Read before posting to understand all that. |

Assuming that there is a lightning network transaction between two people and they want to make evidence to be available to another person as witness, you can send the txid of bitcoin transaction to the third person which the person can use to trace the transaction on blockchain. But how about lightning network? Is there a way it can be tracked? I want to use lightning network because of the cheap transaction fee and fast transaction that it has, but I do not think it is possible for third person to trace it which will let me to use the normal transaction that can be tracked using txid.

You do not use it? Then why did you post it on this forum? What you do not have experience about. It can be a scam. I can never pay for matches prediction when there are countless free prediction sites. Are the prediction sites that reliable, on what purpose should one have confidence in whatever information about sport or gambling t=which they give is valid and genuine, some actually like being in a group of where other gamblers are in other to make them complement their fun time from hearing on different opinions on a particular gambling prediction site, try the one already recommended and see if its worth it.
Gambling is a game of chance. Prediction sites make use of past outcomes of teams to predict what the outcome of matches to be played would be. If you do not have time to make analyses yourself, you can use prediction sites that will make analyses and matches to be picked more easily for you. The prediction sites are free so why not try one and see how it is. But they not excellent reliable. |

something triggered me to ask this question, As a new trader As I am, we know very well that binance is no longer in Nigeria any more. some weeks ago I paid for particular coin and the seller refused to release the coin to me, the next thing he do. He went Off line for about 3 hours before coming on line again,at the end of the day he released the coin to me after 3 hours. because binance security was so secured, if the person doesn't want to release the coin.you can quickly go to appeal and everything will be settled, after giving them the screenshot of your payment receipt.
But the coin was released to you. On the other centralized P2P exchanges, you can also report the person. Also that the coin is on the exchange address which is controlled by the exchange, the seller can not move the coin. The exchange will not let him to be able to withdraw the coin. This kind of thing can also happen on Binance unless you report it. You have nothing to do than to report the person if taking long. |

Crash games are exciting and that should be the reason you are playing it. Do not play it for money because gambling platforms will only do things in the way you will just lose. They want you to lose and they provide you the games that will make you lose more than win. So it is not about crash game to be profitable, it is about all games in gambling platform are not profitable but just that you can use small amount of money to do it and prolong the fun.

I will never advise anybody to keep a bottle of alcohol by his side while gambling I see gambling as something you need to do with a clear eye to clear how your game is going the errors and know when to stop gambling is a very big risk sometimes is good sometimes is bad that is just the way of gambling right from the origin. We just have to be careful that it’s all about gambling.
Not having alcohol will be almost impossible in physical casinos. The casinos make the environment appear fun and they know people like alcohol and include it. But people under alcohol intoxication will be reckless and that also applies to while gambling. They will just think they should gamble more. I drink alcohol but I am very careful and that can not happen to me. What I have to blame is the man but it is his money and not mine. |

I don't need youtube premium as brave browser could show me youtube videos without ads. I don't mind seeing gambling videos or ads in youtube but with this browser it makes me enjoy watching youtube videos without interruption coming from advertisements. Not sure why others are having problem with blocking ads when using the said browser could already solve it.
It is because there are many apps with ad blockers but still showing the YouTube ads after the ad blocking is enabled. But Brave browser is different. It is true that Brave browser will completely block the ads. Some people also prefer to use the YouTube app and not looking for ways to block the ads. |

The passphrase is something like this @_++3$+sbsgsvsvsghsgshs$$((_-466-4;$$;3-_+32-$-dbdhsvshshjjdjdhshdhe+_+4+33-$-$;3-3&$-$;3;3;;3-nsbshdbrjsusbendkdudbebdbdhhddb$$7_63;$!38!;_+4!3++ which will be very difficult to brute force. This brings me to the next problem: the seed phrase is a human readable interpretation of a long random number. It's easy to write down, without a high risk of making mistakes. Your password doesn't have that luxory. If you make a mistake, you're screwed. That is true. But I have made no mistake yet. I will read more about BIP85. I have not read about it before and it can be a good solution and it is exactly what Saint-loup is looking for. Thanks for bringing my notice to some flaws about my backup. |

That means you'll enter your seed on multiple devices, which (by definition) increases the risk of exposing your seed.
I have several seed phrase but I decided to use this for my online wallet when the seed phrase is getting too much for me. I have offline wallet that I used passphrase with also and I have muitisig which I have for different purposes but their seed phrase are not many unlike my online wallets. The purpose for the 3 wallets with the same seed phrase are for online reasons and I use it for small amount of money. The passphrase is something like this @_++3$+sbsgsvsvsghsgshs$$((_-466-4;$$;3-_+32-$-dbdhsvshshjjdjdhshdhe+_+4+33-$-$;3-3&$-$;3;3;;3-nsbshdbrjsusbendkdudbebdbdhhddb$$7_63;$!38!;_+4!3++ which will be very difficult to brute force. Anyone that will brute force the seed phrase would have spent more money that is far more than the coins on it. Offline wallet seed phrases should be different from online wallet seed phrases. |

With the level of addiction you've described OP, I think that person needs to be taken to a rehab, it's obvious he has lost his mind, gambling can be one of the addictions he is going through, but i believe there are other things too he can be addicted to that your not aware of. Gambling can be addictive no doubt, but not to the extent of costing him his business, home and family, that's far too much.
At that stage, he cannot stay on his own and stop gambling, he obviously needs help from friends and well washers, because in his state of mind, he hasn't done anything wrong with his gambling lifestyle.
What I can call it is frustration of losing is affecting his mental health already, but addiction is hard to quit. You are right by saying he needs help. Rehabilitation center will greatly help him. He needs his family and friends support they should advise and take him to rehabilitation center if they have the money. I hope this can teach many people on this forum lessons that gambling addiction is not good at all. It is wrong to be thinking that money can be made through gambling. |
