3681  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.

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.
3683  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Best wallet for Crypto Sportbooks deposits/withdrawals? on: July 26, 2021, 11:49:09 PM
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.
3684  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.
3685  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.
3686  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.
3687  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.
3688  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
3689  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.
3690  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.
3691  Economy / Gambling / Re: Roobet.com | Crypto’s Fastest Growing Casino 🦘 on: July 23, 2021, 11:59:29 PM
<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.

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.
3693  Economy / Speculation / Re: TESLA will re-accept bitcoin & SpaceX owns BTC, said Elon Musk. Ready for pump ? on: July 23, 2021, 04:16:09 PM
Did you watch his talk in the B-Word with Jack Dorsey? I believe he expressed his real viewpoint about Bitcoin, and it was OK for me. He has the same viewpoint like many of us in the community.
Well at the beginning he also wasn't trolling or spreading FUD. He seemed like a true believer then he started spreading FUD. And we know he has no issue with PoW or energy consumption otherwise he would have never bashed bitcoin while supporting its copy dogecoin.

Manipulation is his game so I'm not surprised on what actions he made in certain seasons and maybe he see that its good to enter now since the market is on recovering phase so maybe he is back on his mind games and want to hype people at this point and also we need to be careful if we follow him since he might fud again once bitcoins pump up and reach another ATH.

3695  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Preferred Escrow and why? on: July 23, 2021, 11:17:50 AM
There are so many trusted escrows on this forum that have endured for years and a lot of dealing with escrow with purchases if you have any doubts this is probably one of the favorites for recommendations to the OP.

Hampuz
bL4nkcode
Royse777
etc

There are many options, for me, there is no doubt that if you want to do escrow which is very important, then contact them directly, I think they are all willing.

In addition to this list, Minerjones is the favorite escrow of all time on this forum, Besides that he is very trusted, He can also do a reshipping services on all user that located in US and many more extra feature for a trusted escrow. You can see the proof on his trust score.


I heard about minerjones is really good escrow here in this forum and +feedback given to him proves all about how he handle that job but also will give a good vouch to other user mentioned like Hhampuz since he also have more reputation which we can trust and for sure he will not let the one who trust him since he has a lot of things to lose if he will wrecked a single deal here. Bl4nkcode is also a experience escrow and also I think Royse can also handle this kind of job since both of this guy's got good reputation in this community so it's up for forum users on which of them they gonna choose to handle their deals.
3696  Economy / Economics / Re: Why do most cryptocurrencies rise and fall together? on: July 22, 2021, 11:55:28 PM
Each and every cryptocurrency that has existed in the market has dependence on bitcoin. Even some cryptocurrency doesn't pair with bitcoin, but it'll fall when the bitcoin is bearish. This is common, and very few cryptocurrencies stand high or grow independent unlike the market of bitcoin. Those are manipulated or centralized assets. Most of the time those coins were also manipulated according to the market of bitcoin. This too is a way to make the asset have good number of investments.

Most alts are indeed dependent on btc market. However, there are few alts that can have their own price movement, that is, if the team is strong enough to contradict what is happening in the current market. Just be careful with pump and dump coins, because usually they don't follow the btc market but it is up to the team who will do such pump and dump strategy. But all the others, they just follow the market trend of btc.

Right that's why we see almost whole in the market crash once  BTC price collapsed to and it will happen  the same when it goes up. I don't follow to much alts right now since I've been away trading in the market for long months but I notice Smooth Love Potion(SLP) from axie infinity still  doing great even if the market is really in bad shape.

We are all aware of the fact that there are people who do not like 1xBit's activities. I think it is not the community that don't likes the most, but the competition.
I don't want to accuse anyone, but we should be aware that some accusations are fake and I am not talking only about 1xBit here as I am sure that such actions are also against other casinos.
You can support them because you are participating in their signature campaign, but those who really want people not to be scammed will raise their voice against this scam platform.

Its expected that those shills who participate on 1xbit campaign will support them since they can't go anywhere if this campaign ends and they want to  show that they are really supporting the owner so  that they continuously earn money on the expense of other user who got trouble using this site. If there's 1 or 2 accusation created maybe we will believe that those accusation is fake but unfortunately there are so many of those and  I think  the numbers will rise soon.

It had been mentioned that e-sports would really be on different server which means that it wont really be overloading out or adding on the current server that it had on this moment.

Possible for gambling but its too early to say since there would be lots will really be needed to be arranged on before going into this thing.
If that's the case then we really might see some gamblers out there making side bets as there is no official betting for this yet, right?
For sure it is but for now they are still on developmental stage which we can presume out that they are prioritizing on game progress and next would be that esports which might lead into that gambling opportunities
or for side bettors.

I just recently heard out that those lag issues had been resolved out which is actually a good thing for the company and the price of their in game token had already increased too.

People wont mind much about gambling but rather be focusing  first on earning opportunity while they do play.

The team really showing how passionate they are to their game and  since the server issue  is  now been resolve by them for sure this Esports  plan is their next goal to achieve. And for sure players would really mind to bet on their known strong players since  one of the factor their is players have money to spend since  they are earning good profits in the  game itself and also we cannot  deny how  truly huge  Axie Infity is.  I projected that next  year they can be more huge as number of players keep growing everyday.
3699  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will bitcoin go down below $20,000. on: July 22, 2021, 12:23:02 PM
I never thought that this will ever happen again . Imagine from 64k ? that is an obvious super dump if happens.
The lowest this will take is about 25k and then stays at 30k level.

actually, I thought that the bitcoin price would hit $100k at the moment and never thought that the bitcoin price would drop near the $20k price. however, right now, the bitcoin price is so close to that price. well, now I see a big possibility that the bitcoin price could drop to that price. well, my only hope right now is to see the bitcoin price rise past $50k in the next month.

There's no continuous pump will happen and there's always dump after huge pump came so expect that there's a dump after bitcoin breals another ATH milestone but soon those target we predicted will provably reached since each year bitcoin brings good price upwards, if we cannot see it this year or maybe in next I believe we can see a snapshot of that price in next halving.

It's not good if this is going to lead to gambling because there are many youngsters playing Axie Infinity, if they integrate the gambling section on Axie Infinity, then they should be regulated, I do not have Axie and not playing it, but it's better not to introduce something that will lead to gambling, I'm sure they are weighing their options because there are kids playing this game.
Are you sure that's what they're asking? From where do you assume they have the kids in this game? Axie is one of the hottest play to earn games at the moment, players need to spend 1 money to be able to play well on this platform. What makes you think kids know about blockhain and put money into it to join? Whether or not you want to gamble may be an open choice, but the reasons you give are not convincing.

Yes, it is not free to play, but I saw one post about adding a chat system to the game, and their opinion was that it would be much worse because anyone could chat and say bad words or other things, even if it did not affect the game. I believe it will become toxic soon, but the environment in Axie is not yet toxic, only when there are issues or maintenance.

As per Jihoz  latest interview they are having a  problem with Data's transferred to the server and adding in game chat would add to the problem they encountered right now, also in my opinion its not good to add that option since the chat room  will be full of toxicity as well  players  will trashtalk there enemy so this feature  is not  really good and I would  prefer the current one  where we can focus  to play the game.
