I think you might be ignoring the factor which is most important for people looking for an income in poorer countries, especially if those countries make it more than difficult to earn a decent living wage. Those kinds of people are usually desperate enough and justifyingly so... So they might see your post as a bit judgemental

It would seem to me that there could be problems with registering more than one account due to the fact that suc
h website sites sometimes offer promotions and giveaways. Not only that but multiple accounts could look suspicious in the eyes of regulators. So the casinos might not want to put themselves into hot water...

I recommend that you always do your own research, do NOT listen to people on telegram what with their "trading signals" and "trading courses" and never ever trade when you are emotional from a bad trade or just having a bad day. Also do not trade on short timelines (no less than 1 day scales). From my experience the best thing you can do is not to put all your investments into one place and just hodl. Thats it really. Step away from the charts so your emotion doesnt get the best of you...

I don't see how blockchain can be used to track all the inside transactions simply because there is not a single project that covers all three parts of the blockchain trilemma. For example, Ethereum is decentralized and secure, but it's not (yet) scalable. Solana is scalable, but it's not decentralized as we have seen few days ago when they suddenly decided to shut down the entire network. Once there is a blockchain that covers all three in the blockchain trilemma, then it can be used for tracking casino's inside transactions.
You don't have to solve all of them to use it on a casino, and it's impossible for a casino to have a decentralized bookkeeping since there has to be an owner in that casino but we can make the blockchain out of their control and make things public.

If the blockchain that a casino is using is not decentralized and one person (the casino owner) controls it, how is it different than a normal database where all the inside transactions are stored? Just like the owner of the casino can delete transaction from a database, he can delete transaction from a private blockchain. For example, if someone could delete an Ethereum transaction, what would I do with that transaction hash? Nothing, because it doesn't exist on the blockchain because someone deleted it.

Well as some people here already have mentioned quite eloquently, it seems more like they are using Blockchain in order to restore trust from their "clients" by putting everything on a public ledger, which is immutable. But then again, the problem with centralisation stays. So its back to us trusting them with our money and hoping they stay true to their word....

This is what happens when your politicians need to make it look like your tax money is actually doing something, so that next year, they can justify spending more tax money.

What are the things to keep in mind when looking for an online course for trading?


For the love of god, please do watch out for fake courses and scammers trying to make a quick buck off the gullible and foolish. These people won't care how much money you lose as long as you pay for their scam. And forget about getting your money back because it will be nearly impossible to find these people. I recommend you do your own research and stay away from any and all telegram groups.

Any hardship, no matter how small or large has always been a driving factor for human progress. Wars especially. As far as I can tell, all of human or even animal evolution is based on the simple principle of suffering and finding ways to alleviate that suffering. As far as Covid goes, I think it was a very necessary "drill" so that we can be better prepared for the next virus, which may be much, much deadlier.

I don't completely agree with this statement. COVID 19 is not the first virus pandemic. Even in the recent times, we had multiple pandemics caused by virus strains. MERS and SARS are examples. I don' think that these pandemics have contributed anything to medical science. If that was the case, then the current pandemic would have got contained much earlier. Now we are almost two years in to the pandemic and I don't see any light at the end of the tunnel. Stock markets have gone up (that might have happened even without the pandemic). Otherwise I don't see any other positive for the last two years.

Well before you say "COVID 19 is not the first virus pandemic" or  "I don' think that these pandemics have contributed anything to medical science." Maybe you could weigh in the factors that we have never had such a gigantic outbreak before, in history and the corona virus is called the novel corona virus for a reason. Its new. Its never been observed in humans before. So I mean, both those things kind of contradict what you claim.

I also agree with your statement of "DO NOT USE EXCHANGE ADDRESSES UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES". A lot of people have lost money by transferring to an exchange wallet only to find out it was never possible to send them there. Its mostly ERC20 tokens that are rewarded in bounty campaigns so myetherwallet has always been my favorite choice of wallet that I recommend.

My favorite gambling? Hmm that might be something I would have to think a bit longer on but if you told me to name something off the top of my head as is, I would probably say.... Blackjack. Although I am quite partial to anything with cards. Do you know the russian game "durak"? Its played with cards as well although I am not sure if it is integrated so much into the actual gambling world.

Was ich bei dem neuen Mining-System von El Salvador nicht ganz verstehe ist wie sich das Vulkan Mining auf den Bitcoin Preis auswirkt. Die Energie wird ja so gesehen nicht aus aufwendigen, kostspieligen Mitteln (wie z.B. Kohle) erworben sondern einfach von Mutter Natur. Also so gesehen (fast) kostenlose Bitcoins. Würde das den Preis nicht einfach runterziehen da es sich um eine Art Inflation handelt?

How long before retail banks offer Bitcoin for savings accounts instead of forcing people to lose their assets through keeping dirty fiat?

When they no longer can profit off of stealing people's money   Wink

3637  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Reasons why NFTs projects are not making wave-like ICOs on: October 01, 2021, 07:17:52 AM
NFT's are not legally regulated to the point where you can buy a painting NFT and expect the original painting or any copyright laws from the painting to be legally considered as yours. The regulations just aren't there yet. I am still waiting for the first legal case of NFT ownership in court. Anyway, NFTs can be fun, but they are mostly used by the rich to launder money, really.
3638  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Losses in trading are nothing but Business expenses on: October 01, 2021, 07:14:37 AM
I guess you could perhaps be correct in assuming that losses in trading are nothing but business expenses, however it depends on your business registration I think. Unless your business is trading, I doubt you can write that off your taxes. And if you decide to make it a trading business you might require a special license, especially if you live in a european county like Germany.
3639  Economy / Economics / Re: Chinese loans leaves many countries in "hidden debts" on: October 01, 2021, 07:11:43 AM
Anything coming out of China willl be lies and deceit. I wouldn't trust a chinese with anything. They would rather "save face" than alert the world of a extremely contagious virus that kills 2-3% of the infected population. They even lie to their own people, even if it costs them their lives. They massacre falon gong practicioners based on a lie and they commit genocide on the Uigyurs also based on lies. Never trust China. China will be the end of the world.
3640  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Entain to Get Gambling License in the Netherlands on: October 01, 2021, 07:08:35 AM
While it obviously seems that obtaining a gambling license in the Netherlands seems much easier than for example, getting a gambling license anywhere else in the EU, especially in countries with stuck-up buerocratic nightmare laws like Germany, I still think it would have been more prudent to look for a gambling license in one of the Islands, with the added bonus of being tax havens, you would also get a license much simpler.
