I am not an expert but I think that this e-commerce advisor are bad in choosing the right path for the platform growth and development. What's really there in integrating bitcoin as an option in form of payment, this will not only boost their customers, but it will increase their profits and awareness to the part of nations that cannot easily access their platform but may be they fear regulation and the pressures that might comes after just the same thing that is happening in Binance today.

They are huge business and I'm sure they have so many advisors about this situations maybe they see how volatile the bitcoin is since we all see how this one get easily manipulated by certain rich individual and they might lose money if certain manipulation to get it dump will happen so its not surprisinh why big merchant don't want this to accept now but maybe once bitcoin established well and join in the mainstream where it will became more harder to manipulate maybe they will consider it to accept as their additional payment option on their platform.

Some month ago so many people would think Bitcoin will crash , many felt as if  the price will even fall more than it use to be. People were even scared to trade  because they were not sure of the market, but they never knew when it was low that was even the best time to trade . I'm glad to see where the price of Bitcoin have reached presentky, it will be an advantage and good experience to those who took the risk of going into trading and it will also give some others knowledge that fall of Bitcoin is not permanent , definitely it will come up. With this experience have showed that Bitcoin is here to stay, do not panic, trade and make earning

Its a bit relief to see bitcoin pumps after series of dumps happening on it for the past couple of days and now it stabilize at the current point also I think that we can see more from it since bitcoin is showing some good strength right now. I'm just curious on what will happen on bitcoin on  August since it known as Ghost month and mostly bear strikes happen on thag month hopefully we cannot see a huge dip after this month came.
3603  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Binance decreased withdrawal limits for basic verified users. on: July 28, 2021, 10:48:55 PM
As the title says, Binance decreased withdrawal limits for basic verified users.

Here are the article: Updates to Daily Withdrawal Limits

Those users who have big funds in basic verified accounts should withdraw their funds before 2021-08-04 00:00 AM (UTC).  Because after that withdrawal limits will be 0.06BTC.

I post it here because most newbies likely do not visit the Exchange section.

Well this is not surprising actually since for so many times binance has been bothered by government so maybe this is part of regulation made by them so if we want to continuously use binance without having issues better comply their KYC procedure since this could save us days waiting for our withdrawals to get fill. Also theirs a lot od time to do and I also confident that binance still a good exchange where we can trust our private details.
3604  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Anything like excess gambling on: July 28, 2021, 01:31:17 PM

Some people could bet without even knowing the amount of time and money they have invested in gambling which could look obvious and call for estimation. I gamble a lot and sometimes I don't even know if it's becoming excess not.

Anything like excess gambling?

Two things they could be enjoying the game or they are trying to recover their losses, if they are doing this for fun and they are putting only excess money, there's nothing wrong with this, but if they are neglecting their homes and they are losing money then excess in gambling is on it's worse and should be dealt with immediately, this is dangerous it's bad for mental health and financial status.
Without knowing the amount of time and money, we can have the worst experience in gambling as we do not see how much money we already lost. It is okay if they excess money to playing gambling, but never put another money if you lose because of wanting to chase or recover the losses because that can not work for you. Even if you can recover the losses, you should not continue playing the other gambling games and consider stopping as soon as possible before it becomes too late for you.

This will happen if you don't count the money you brought and continuously cast your bets on casinos, I don't agree that its ok to excess  your capital since this is somehow how addiction start and you will end up being addicted without you  personally notice it and continuously play  as  gambling is a  part of your  daily routine.   We should really not  to continue if  we  are losing  to much or get another money to take revenge and bet again.

The plays that given were all for Luka and all he had to do is wait in the corner like a PJ Tucker style offensive play.

If it's effective in the long run then KP should give way. Luka is not failing them. He looks like a ball hog but checking the stats, his assists have a good percentage.

Mark Cuban pointed out before that Luka and KP weren't on good terms outside the court. They gave time for these 2 players to somehow build good chemistry but still, it's not that good. It was the same case when Jason Terry joined the Mavericks and Dirk Nowitzki seems to don't like these guy. But looked at them, they worked together to bring a championship to Mavericks.

Will it happen to Luka and KP? The latter need to understand that Luka is the main guy on the Mavericks. He just needs to cooperate. Personally, I like him to stay.

I also would like him to stay as a Maverick, there was a lot of hype when he join the team, maybe the injuries just really hounded him that's why his numbers is going down. I'm pretty sure him and Luka can work it out, adjust to each other and then play as 1-2 for the Dallas.

I think he knows that it is Luka's team, but maybe it is more of a health issue for him that chemistry with Luka or other team members.

If there's no jealousy between these two guys will they can create good chemistry together in next season but it seems that this will take time as KP seems doesn't like the idea that Luka is the main guy on Mavs, but if they can adjust unto this situation and they can work  without issues in  the court provably  this  Duo is dangerous next season as I think KP is now fully recovered  from the injury what he gotten. But if things will fall even if they try to create  a good chemistry with both  stars maybe its good to let go KP and find another star which is willing to adjust on the given role.

when paypal allows Bitcoin, I already told my sister to buy from Paypal just for her to taste how it feels to own Bitcoin. eventually, I've convinced her to register on exchange and buy there and send the btc to her private wallet.

i think yes. today is the right time to buy because every part of the world had already gone mad. btc coin could be the solution for her money to stay as a property when all things crumble especially if people can't withdraw money anymore from the banks.

Love the idea on when you convence your sister to buy bitcoin but also I'm not totally agree about word things crumble and people cannot withdraw their money from the banks since there's a law sorrounds and for sure anyone can take their money out on thay institution. If ypu mean about upcoming technology upgrade maybe yes but I think fiat will stay as there are other people who want to feel their wealth in their hands.
3607  Economy / Gambling / Re: SatoshiGames.io|✅The Best Bitcoin Gambling Forum🎲|Blockchain Games Reviews on: July 27, 2021, 11:08:30 PM

Hello, thank you for your advice, we will take it into account and offer some gift satoshis for those who manage to interact and make the recommendations of Blockchain Games as well as their experiences in them. We will also be delivering Memberships for one month. However, our purpose is highly exclusive, we have even started to sell affiliate links, it is only a matter of time before we form our community.

will also help you to get many potential users to the forum.
Moreover you can also add some pay per post thing now to get even more user.
Similar features were used by stake and PD forums some months before and that helped them to get their forums active and crowded by lots of users.

Maybe Op first start to market his forum and seek for advertisers who's willing to put their ads their since if he will start on paying their users to post maybe the only one he can get are those spammers and not the legitimate forum users since if we talk about pay per post thing many will love to get that offers but they will leave after the program stop. So better accumulate the advertisers and establish before moving to the next phase.
3608  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is Bitcoin bull market back on: July 27, 2021, 10:11:56 PM
It's about to get into $40k just now.

As I post this, $300 more and it's already on $40k. The news about Amazon seems to be one of the reasons why we're seeing this price increase and it's very nice to see it again go in $40k.

Well, most of us missed that price.

there are various fluctuations that will later bring news about Amazon that encourage them to adopt Bitcoin. So it can't be denied just for the sake of growing all transactions on Amazon. If they are really serious about adopting Bitcoin by the end of the year.
Although it will continue to feel faster for a while. so the target will be above $50,000. And for now all need to prepare for the increase in preparation that is quite maximal.
We won't be happy just yet, because for the time being following up on Amazon's decision is what we're most looking forward to. so with that look at how strong Amazon's influence is on Bitcoin price growth.
There's now the rejection and confirmation that the Amazon news is fake and this probably was the effect of it why $40k took not that long to stay.

They're aware now that they're like the Elon Musk of the market and probably will use that influence again sometime in the future.

For seeing this incidentnwe can say that manipulation is really happening thats why we need to be careful wether the news is good is bad since we as a small time holder/trader we are prone to get hit when those manipulators dump there shits and take out their profits. For sure there are more something like this will spread as many whales see the potential to move the market by just spreading fake informations in this space.
3609  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Manny Pacquiao vs Errol Spence Jr - August 21 on: July 27, 2021, 01:35:15 PM
If I had to choose between two options for how Pacquiao would win - by knockout or by decision, then I would have bet on the knockout. In my opinion, there is simply no chance of winning on points, since all rounds after the middle Spence will dominate (maybe I'm wrong, but that's my prediction), but there is always a chance to make a lucky punch.

I would prefer TKO also by Pacquiao here. And should be at the early rounds.
If this fight will last long and if you are relying from the decision of judges, Spence may have the chance.
A lot of boxing fans are looking forward to this event, even ex-boxers and boxing experts are giving their own breakdown of this upcoming fight.
Definitely, tons of money will be involved in this match. Both boxers may not have signed a very high paying contract here, but maybe they will get good money from PPV and gate purse.

It may not be a record fight in terms of royalties, but in any case, the fighters will receive guaranteed millions of dollars, plus royalties from broadcasts and sponsors, so I did not worry about them in that sense  Grin
And by the way, in my opinion, now any boxer should be glad that he has the opportunity to conduct fights as before the pandemic,

Especially if they know that their name will be boosted after the fight either they win or lose thats why I agree with you that many will love the opportumity to fight the legendary fighter since this is really a good earning opportunity for both of them. But for now I hope many will focus his fight and forget the politics since this could bring more destruction unto him.
3610  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it easier to HODL if you are already rich? on: July 27, 2021, 12:12:53 PM
One of those successful cases of bitcoin hodling was a friend of a friend. They (a couple) took an important risk by investing 60k of a dismissal compensation into bitcoin and making a x100 on it before selling half. I do not know what they did with the rest. Now, these people were not rich, they took an enormous risk compared to their total wealth. They had to really believe on the project and pass though some of bitcoins usual "tests of faith".

For someone with let´s say, a net worth of 1M USD or more plus house, hodling 60k until they became 6M would have been not that much of an stress. Do you think it was easier to benefit economically from bitcoin if you were already a bit up in the ladder?

Yes it is since the simple explation with that is if you are rich you are capable to buy and hold things since you csn cover up your losses if bear market occurs also you have money to flip up if certain things goes on your way. Compare to  a person who only have small amount on their wallets they go bet all they have and wait for certain good market movements and once they earn they try to make their capital became more bigger and also if they lose they lose everything they have and comeback to play next time if they already saved some money and spend it on either on other forms of investment or hodling bitcoins.

Hi guys.

What is best/safest/easiest wallet to use for crypto gambling?

Currently I am using Binance wallet, but I heard that they can lock account and ask about these transactions.

Regards

Which wallet lock their user account by using it on gambling  transaction? since so far I didn't experience those by the way  I'm using trust wallet and electrum on dealing with casino so maybe try this recommendation or what is more convenient for  you to use and check the suggested wallets by other   forum members and try it one by one. Take note to choose only those wallet who got recommended by many  times since that is tested by the users itself.
3612  Economy / Speculation / Re: Can I recommend a friend to buy Bitcoin now? on: July 26, 2021, 11:37:22 PM
Bitcoin is now rising, and it has jumped by 3k in less than 10 minutes. Although everyone is happy but also worried, is it going to fall again?
My friend asked if I can continue to buy it? But I see a lot of people commenting that giant whales are now controlling the market. I told my friends not to enter the market for now, but my friends seem to have misunderstood me.
Do you think that this kind of market should be forbidden to enter or continue to buy?
I suggest not to panic selling。
Every price what you see is good to begin with and I'm sure you wouldn't want to start buying bitcoin at $60k right? that figure is accumulated by bitcoin for the past couple of  months so  you should tell your friend to start  take his position before the pump will continuously go on. I know we can see the down side  but as long as you don't get panic on  the situation and  would not dump your coins then  you are  not losing your money  invested with bitcoins.
3613  Other / Archival / Re: Amazon news is a banal market manipulation on: July 26, 2021, 09:52:18 PM
Yeah it sort of  and  the news about it circulate now on social medias so I think this is another manipulation for certain whales who want  to manipulate the market although this  is totally good especially ghost month is coming but we need to be careful since other people might get FOMO if those manipulators could successfully start to move up the price and left behind when they want to abandon the ship, so better secure and watch the market closely to avoid being a bag holder.
3614  Economy / Economics / Re: Amazon will accept Bitcoin payment this year on: July 26, 2021, 01:05:10 PM
There has been no official statement from Amazon regarding this. The media has quoted "anonymous" sources. What if the intention is to pump the prices for a limited duration, so that the whales can sell their coins at a profit? Let's not forget what happened with the Tesla adoption. Elon Musk made a few tweets, and the exchange rates rocketed to $62,000. And then he made the U-turn and the prices fell by more than 50%. So this time, I would be more cautious. Keep a close eye on the trade volumes. It will tell whether any manipulation is going on or not.

I  also search that  information but no official  news coming to Amazon so maybe this  is just another hype they want to implement and eventhough this is good sight to see since we might gonna see  bitcoin pump up after this huge price decrease happen unto it. Maybe its  good not to buy those news spread but  monitor them closely since if they release certain news like this provably we can see  bitcoin rise up or it can possibly reach another  new ATH to bitcoins.
3615  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season Champion: Milwaukee Bucks on: July 26, 2021, 11:44:48 AM

They can't repeat championship, that was a one time trophy due to too many injuries on opponents. Next year there won't be this much injuries.

We never know, now that Bucks had already won a championship, we will see a more confident Milwaukee Bucks next season, also, expect that Giannis will improve as he is still young, they will try to develop him into an all-around player and more consistent with his FT shooting. The first five should remain intact, they can add some players to improve the teams' offense, particularly the 2nd unit as they might face a tougher challenge next season.

They need to add more role players if they are aiming for another ring,
the statement above is for real if there's no injuries with those super teams both Suns and Bucks will have the difficulty reaching the finals.

But since they are now the defending champ the value of this team may grow, finding or adding quality players is no longer hard for this team.

early to discuss the next season, lets wait for any possible trades from that we will see who's hot and possible to reach the finals.

Many  teams are planning to bring more talents to their teams and Lakers is  known for this also I believe Nets will bounce back next season with healthy line up so  its not  good for Bucks to  be calm next season they need to upgrade if they want to win another championship next season.  Its not early to discuss about the trade since actually trading rumors are now  rotating in the league so  they should watch which  stars available is good fit to their team.
3616  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The houses always win, are you the house or the gambler? on: July 24, 2021, 01:33:58 PM
The house is not going to be in loss even though if they have paid a millions dollars for the jackpot that is what the actual meaning of  "House always wins", its happening because the house has more probability to win the game so if 10 people are playing then 9 is going to lose and only 1 is going to win and he may take money from 5 others so hous is still going to make that money from 4 with no risk.

But what if a new casino opens up and they put the jackpot in and some lucky gamblers manages to get the jackpot on the first day? At that point the casino would actually lose money. Sure they have an edge in every game, but if they there aren't enough gamblers they could lose money.

If they are a small casino then provably it  will  hurt there funding's and this could provably start of winning  scamming since they can't able to  pay the winner of the jackpot prize,  that's why on this discussion we need to bet on good established casino so that if this scenario will happen we can assure to get our  winning prize.

The houses always win, are you the house or the gambler?

Remember only idiot take high risk to get high reward. The houses do not take risk but telling all of you to take high risk. Whether it’s bear market or bull market, the houses always win.
-snip-
So anyone that would like to take high risks according to you are idiots? Of course the house won't be taking risks. They are not a charity organization. They are here not to give you free money. They are here to make profit (talking about casino, not the other random weird stuffs that you also included). You take risk to make quick profit. This is how it all works. Take high risk, get high reward. Take low risk, enjoy less profit. You can't call someone that is willing to take high risk an idiot.

Well  maybe he's not on high risk betting since he cannot take those things properly and there are really people who take a lot of risk and mostly the one who earned richest from this are those people who's braved to handle that situations and its not right to call  them idiot since they just have courage to take those huge risk for  theirselves even though  the house mostly win  on  this category
3617  Economy / Economics / Re: What event could trigger new bull run and ATHs? on: July 24, 2021, 12:17:32 PM
~

Although Musk contributed to the last bull run, I don't think he was the trigger. The bull run started well before that.
At the end of November, Bitcoin broke the $20,000 mark, and its price has increased throughout December and into the new year. There was no news about Tesla's bitcoin holdings before this happened.

Really? 1.5 billion USD worth of bitcoin purchase didn't contribute big to the trigger of the start of the bull run?

Of course it did. If you can tell me exactly when that $ 1.5 billion worth of bitcoin was purchased, I'll tell you how much of an impact it had on the price of bitcoin.  Cheesy


It did contribute to the past bull  run since those purchase create FOMO to Musk  followers and to others who doubt to buy at that time, We see how Musk influenced  works to  the people so long bull run days are extended   for long days but after fud it the price starting to collapsed so for this If we want  to see a bull  run   we need another influential person to enter and express his  support to crypto and do some beneficial things that can help bitcoin to pump up maybe from that we can see the  bull run to smash up.
3618  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Does blockchain.com refund stolen funds? on: July 24, 2021, 11:09:32 AM
As long as you can't prove they are responsible for the lost of the funds, they will not refund it. If you start complaining, they will simply tell you that it's your fault (you got phished, you've a malware in your device..) and tbh, this is true in 99% of the cases.
The reason why you see many victims is mainly because most blockchain.com users are newbies who generally don't know how to properly secure their wallets/accounts.
What you can do is to stop using web wallets and start using non-custodial and open source wallets.

Don't see anyone recover any amount after they  got hack, blockchain.com owners would not take any actions related to  that incident so its good for OP  to move on from that sad happenings and try to learn from bad experience happen to him so  that next time he can avoid the same incident that he  might encounter on future. Also I agree with you its better to use  trezor  and avoid  dealing web  wallets especially if we store huge balance for long term hold or for other investment.

<snip>
Roobet already has a large community, so with the new sportsbook feature it will add to their popularity.
Ow I thought Roobet has added sportbook to their site. That would definitely be a huge step and might attract more users since sportbooks has a large fan base also. But for now, I don't think Roobet will do such thing, if they want it, maybe they should added it before.
That could be one of the major update with Roobet and really looking forward for that, I’m sure Roobet knows already how to take advantage the support from their community and working with some updates now. Roobet keeps on growing despite of some restrictions and the KYC thing, new gamblers will come if sportsbook will be added to the options.

I love to bet on sports and I see roobet as a trusted casino so they will add sportsbook feature in their site then its provably a big thing here since for sure there are so many of their clients will jump and go bet on their sports team by using their platform. But I don't like to do KYC so if its ok maybe they shouldn't push that but if thats the rule well we should follow since maybe this is some sort of developments especially if they decide to add the want of gamblers to add that option on their site.
3620  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season Champion: Milwaukee Bucks on: July 23, 2021, 11:04:32 PM
The next season is so far away and I saw on social media that people are already praying and telling that Clippers will win next year. Now , let me be very clear when I say that Clippers will struggle again and it might be the last year for Kawhi there.

Its there fans asking that to happen and its pretty normal.

But I don't like the idea of leaving if they didn't win a championshio since if kawhi like that to happen well he should help his team if not on stats maybe to helo them increase there morale in the game but this championship winning is kinda not gonna happen for then next year since solid teams are still intact to their team and he will strugle if he just rant and asking for good perfornance to his teammates.

Clippers do struggle because of the injury of Leonard, if he was healthy, then we might see a different result in the NBA Finals as they will be likely the favorites to win the championship. let us not forget that Kawhi beat Giannis' team when he was still playing with the Toronto Raptors and on the same year, he led the Raptors to achieve their first championship.

Yeah the game will be totally different if Kawhi is healthy but it looks like he always got injured in crucial games   Cheesy maybe he need to adjust on the game so that he can last on his play off run. Also we cannot compare the  raptors rooster to bucks before since even then Raptors have solid players which can able to win a champ without Kawhi, Siakam and Vanvleet also got huge contribution to that past championship compare to know where seems the Clippers rooster are so relying to Kawhi since George is a season player.
