Most of my signature payments were spend on gambling(this is not by intention, by habit). Finally used to loss everything. Two days back received my last week's payment. Received little bonuses from the gambling site. Using the total of around $120 started to gamble on Dice. This continued for about two days. Ten minutes back I made it reach $680. Further the greed made me loss and empty my wallet. Another thing, claimed the rakeback of $7 and emptied those. This is how my spendings are going out of my wallet.
3682  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do I need to pay Tax on my Crypto Gambling Winnings? A guide on: March 11, 2021, 10:59:50 AM
Taxation is the major source of income for every country. This is the reason why taxation is much important for a government with all forms of businesses. Countries that are against gambling doesn't need to worry about it. In my country even on lucky draw- lottery winning people need to pay 15% as tax and the rest can be enjoyed by the winner. Same as this different countries will have their own gambling taxation policy.

Based on the previous term when the old-time "GOLD" VIP got VIP Manager.

After the change they still have VIP Manager, so even the current rank for platinum got VIP Manager and soon in the future only "DIAMOND" VIP, all of that platinum who got VIP Manager before the change still have VIP Manager.

Based on "GOLD" VIP change.
No need of taking this to a big discussion. In my understanding Stake team won't come to such a decision. Because, increase in the VIP users is true growth of the Stake. For sure they will experience a decline in the revenue, but through the increased usage of the platform it gets compensated.

If cases are increasing like this then BCCI may change the venue for sure because they are more towards conducting the IPL even in the middle of pandemic last year so they may not hold back from anything. Anyone knows about the spectators are allowed for this season or not?

There was a statement from the BCCI earlier this week:

https://www.moneycontrol.com/news/trends/sports-trends/ipl-2021-no-spectators-no-gate-revenue-this-time-too-but-experts-not-worried-about-sponsorship-deals-6623711.html

Quote
Once again, the Indian Premier League (IPL) will witness empty stadiums and there will be no crowd- cheering. The 14th edition of the IPL, too, will be played behind closed doors -- at least in the initial phase of the tournament, the IPL governing council said on March 7.

They may allow the spectators at a later stage, if the situation improves. But I don't think that it will happen. Cases are once again rising, not only in India but also around the world. Brazil is having a similar demographic, and they are witnessing huge increase in new cases. Even in India, cases are rising in some of the states. For me, it doesn't matter much. I don't really care whether the crowd is there or not. But the TV channels need to stop their automated crowd setting during the broadcast.
The automated crowd system added to the broadcast is really disturbing. When we hear the true sound from the ground it is really interesting to watch the game. Taking in account the rise of covid cases, different plans were made. This time surely people will be allowed to watch the game, because BCCI felt the difference of playing in an empty ground and with full crowd.

Scams are quite common with cryptomarket, and we need to stay safe with our learnings. Cloud mining is a big thing thats been promoted, but those aren't effective for various reasons. Rather than spending on cloud mining one can just find the right cryptocurrency and hold for long term.
3686  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: More people are moving to Qtum after BNB but STOP!! Qtum is under development! on: March 08, 2021, 11:41:55 PM
I think QTUM is just a hype.
QTUM is already aged, even Binance Smart Chain doesn't started yet, QTUM is already there. But if you take a look now, there is still no progress. I can relate QTUM with NEO, which NEO before got abandoned, which a lot of people keep talking that it is the Ethereum killer, but look at now.
Yes, those are much expected projects. Beyond certain point there is no progress. Maybe in the long term this can provide with unexpected price pumping same as that of dogecoin that happened recently. Binance kept its progress high, even during the bearish market of bitcoin it marked its first ATH value. Further it kept a good market through its smart contract and with the different launch platforms. This way qtum isn't gonna be the next BNB.

You see that it's going to be $10 for the upcoming days.

How can you be sure telling that if you have no evidence and analysis that can support that speculation of yours. All you have said is mere speculation and you have just put the link of the website and whitepaper.

Other than that, nothing explains why it can reach that price.

Maybe, he is just shilling about the project as he has vested interest on this one. It is better to explain elaborately why a certain project is going to rise, so people will not take it as just shilling the project. DOT is a promising one, but you also need to evaluate if the project under this network is also promising and don't have empty foundation.
Checked with coinmarketcap. The marketcap, circulating supply, max supply isn't visible. Have got above $4.5M trading volume with the major volume out of uniswap. Polkadot has been gaining good market through its potential growth through different means, for the same we can't expect big growth with every altcoin developed over the platform. For someone preferring to accumulate little or diversify the portfolio can invest a small amount on it. Op might've invested on it, and for the purpose of pumping the market through further investment he has begun this thread.
3688  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Should I sell or hold on my bitcoin? on: March 08, 2021, 11:01:33 PM

While some people are quitting smoking just so they could use the funds to buy BTC you on the other hand are about to sell?

Hold your BTC tight it could be your most prized possession right after the pandemic. Many of the early investors already regret selling it cheap and now they are trying to invest again for a price they thought wouldn't even be possible. Its 50k for now but it won't be long we'd be breaking another ATH.
Well said, bitcoin is on the bullish trend. Right now it is good to hold the bitcoin than selling. As said it is good to spend on bitcoin avoiding the unwanted expenses. Surely the market is gonna reach $100k and high with time. More and more ATH are to be reached in the upcoming months. So, holding is the better choice than selling it.
3689  Economy / Speculation / Re: For all of you scared of the current dip on: March 08, 2021, 10:41:25 PM
Btc holding $50k is a very big thing amid dollar gains happened yesterday that made btc erase all its gains, but what a comeback! I think the 'somewhat bearish' phase of btc was rolled out to spread FUD in markets but today's investors are very smart that they are not selling in this FUD. I was skeptical about btc reaching $40k and less but now as $50k level is broken back, we will see a rush in btc buying taking it over $65k.
This time Bitcoin gaining momentum and crossing $50k isn't a big thing, this is much expected and predicted move of experts. As said FUD is spread around, but the market hasn't reacted to it. This has been happening as a result of more and more corporate network getting into the cryptospace. This could've been a big thing if it has dropped low to $40k and made a recovery crossing $50k. This time the bull market is completely different and the bull trend is predicted to last for a much longer time in a much stabilized way.
3690  Economy / Economics / Re: Central banks around the world want to get into digital currencies on: March 08, 2021, 10:26:42 PM
There is a difference between digital currency and cryptocurrency...
but we are on the way to mass adoption of both. Several countries are already planning to circulate their own cryptocurrencies and it is true that China is currently the lead in developing its own digital currencies and cryptocurrencies.
Well said, most of the countries in the name of digital growth have encouraged the usage of digital currencies. This means very small percentage of people were aware of the credit/debit Card usage and now through continuous promotion its usage has increased alot. Apart from this development more number of government banking services have begun to make use of the blockchain technology and very few around the world are supporting cryptocurrency development and usage.
3691  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why bitcoin mixers are only for criminals on: March 08, 2021, 10:18:27 PM
Criminals has privacy coins if they want to get real anonymity. Or cash. Bitcoin is not the best even after mixers
We are already on digital age or era which means that anything that do implies nor involved with anonymity will surely be considered to be one of the best ways on making out these illegal transaction.
Those words you have said was indeed true somehow but there are other coins which is more anonymous that Bitcoin itself which is im talking with Monero etc.
It is just a wrong perception to have this to be implied on mixers because they arent really created solely for criminals but rather on pure anonymity itself.
They are just taking advantage with that one.
We're in the digital age, and more of that we're always part of a nation. This means we'll be under a government, and here we need the privacy. For that purpose we're using bitcoin mixers so that our identity won't get revealed. Then doesn't it mean that you're doing some form of laundering activities or trying to get out of taxation. Mixers aren't used for criminal activities, these day we've got Bitcoin usage high as investment than criminal activities and to stay hidden from the government people prefer it.
3692  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Indian Finance Minister on Cryptocoin. on: March 07, 2021, 10:37:18 AM
But you can only plan what is within your control, crypto as a decentralized asset is not under the control of any government. Even if government want to regulate cryptocurrency it will not be possible due to it nature.

Sure. But then can definitely illegalize cryptocurrencies and ask local exchanges to lock up everyone's funds. Not because cryptocurrencies are mostly trustless it doesn't automatically mean that the government has zero power against it; remember that your typical cryptocurrency exchange isn't decentralized.
Whats been stated is possible, but for some reason if the exchanges were not providing with the required information to the government. The exchanges weren't decentralized, but government can't get precise data. The market control is not in anyone's hands. It is not the government, not the exchanges. Based on this I state Indian government will make attractive statements keeping in mind the upcoming elections on different states of India.

Same as this is the gambling, more key players are involved with match fixing even after getting huge sum of money after every match winning/losing. Why certain sportsmen have such greed towards money when people are starving to have a single meal on a day.

Most people are very greedy, man. So i don't see here any reason to be surprised. Top payed sportsmen are often promote some scummy services or even shady casinos, because of money (this is in post USSR countries, where law is doesn't work). And as i see now, in normal countries this happens constantly too. Because of greed.

No matter how hard any government will try to eliminate the corruption in sports, they can simply cannot put it to a complete stop. There are many ways of corruption on the sports like giving your near dear ones opportunities to represent for your country when there are better talent avaible. Also fixed matches are the result of corruption in sports.
Governments are the core element behind corruption, because it starts from the top order. Maybe a politician or someone in high profile using his influence will give way for an average player get elected into the team. The first mistake further keeps disturbing the entire system, and finally the scenario gets a transition that ability can't give you opportunity. Money and ability altogether will give you opportunity. This needs to change and it is in the hands of government in my view.

Welcome to the forum,

The truth is that I had no knowledge of your platform, thank you very much for bringing it, the information and scripts shown are great, especially this information surprises me, since it is updated and ready to enjoy.



Just a small observation, I had to place the settings on the smaller screen so that the chart does not overlap with the Info area.
Here Stake.bet is mentioned. Is the mentioned domain is stake.com or something else. These days gambling sites have begun to provide more promotion and bonuses based on the wagering instead of investment opportunity.

Good news! I got my withdraw! But still, be careful!
In any gambling site, you should be careful, and if you do not want to see a big loss or getting scam by the site, you must not use too big money because that is a way to prevent scam sites. Good if you already got your withdrawal, so next time, you should not use bigger funds to gamble. Gambling is a way to enjoy the games and spend our time, so that will not necessary to use bigger funds.

That is true we should be very careful in every website where we are playing but its nice to know that you already got your withdrawal. I would like to try their website in the few hours let's hope I would be lucky and win some good amount.
In recent days I find users have got more trust on gambling platforms that run their promotional campaigns. This gives more traffic to the gambling site as well as gains good reputation. Some might think this as a false statement, but going through the services section together with the gambling section will give better clarity on this.
3696  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Services of betting on your behalf on: March 07, 2021, 03:49:21 AM
We have got more legitimate access with trusted gambling platforms. Maybe your friend is lucky to make a win out of the error, but the same won't happen with you. In some cases there will be fixed Matches in which you can place bets if the person have proven track record.
3697  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Indian Super League (ISL) Football match updates, predictions and discussions on: March 06, 2021, 05:57:52 PM
What a match! I was totally surprised to see today's ATK Mohun Bagan vs NorthEast match. In the full 90 minutes, NorthEast was not able to make any on-target shots. ATK was leading 1-0. But after 90 minutes, in extra time we saw the horrible form of Northeast. They made 3 shots in extra time, were able to score one goal. Both the semi-final matches have been drawn. Will we then watch the final between Mumbai City vs Mohun Bagan? Because they have dominated the whole season.Or will we see another team in the final? I think Goa will be able to go to the final.
As the first two matches of the leg 1 have come to an end with drawn matches the teams for the final seems to be selected from the matches of the second leg. This time the matches throughout the series were quite interesting and there is excitement till the end. However we don't know which are the matches that gonna qualify to the final from the semi final.
3698  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: March 06, 2021, 04:30:25 PM
What a day for India and specially for Pant and Sundar. Unfortunately, Sundar just missed and could not complete his century. Axar was very special in bowling and with his 43 runs this helped India in the end as India did not had to bat in second innings as India won by 25 runs and an innings.  India did well to win 3-1 series.


England might've never thought of innings loss against India. Throughout the series India played well, and in this match the Indian cricketers are really strong. In specific, each and every player gave their contribution. If one doesn't do well, the next one takes the role and paved path for win. This is the reason I find on India for having a 3-1 series win.
3699  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gamblers - How do you use your signature campaign earnings? on: March 06, 2021, 04:13:10 PM
I try the best to keep hold of the funds, but I wasn't able to do it for different reasons. For the last few week, I don't have any payments. All the payments received were lost on gambling. Myself prefer Dice over other games. I find myself unlucky, but my mind doesn't stay within the limit. Always try to increase the received amount through campaign. This finally ends with the loss of all funds.

Why is Stake still member of Cryptogambling foundation while hosting not provably fair and sketchy slot games?
Can you come up with some proof. Till date Stake is one among the best and the trusted platform to serve the gamblers. I don't find any flaws with Stake and in particular if there is games that aren't provably fair, please report those games with proof. Surely you'll be rewarded and I state this based on my belief that every game on Stake is provably fair.
