This is basically what banks want you to do as well. Think about it, you are a bank and you need income, if a lot of people suddenly starts taking out a loan, you are using the money you have to give out loans to people and they will be paying you money back with interest every month, that is income that everyone would love to have.

I mean let's say you have 10 thousand dollars, you give to 10 people with 4 thousand dollars each (banks are allowed to give more loans than the money they have) which means 40 thousand dollars you loaned to people, they will pay about 60 thousand dollars with interest over course of 5 years, wouldn't you consider that a great business?

I would totally go for something like that, being a bank is awesome for the bank while awful for everyone else. Hence, if you do what OP says, you are only making banks happy.
Is he aware on how banks do make business or just totally dumb on making or seeing this as an opportunity? We can take loan from time to time neither we are on a pandemic situation or not yet
these banks will surely offer loans because this is one of the main source of income for them on letting people do borrow and giving out those ridiculous interest rates per annum.
This might be a typical thing but this is much way more better rather than borrowing into someone or people who do have much more bigger interest.
Also, dont take loans just for you to make up some investment.

This situation has been grabbed by the banks and offering some appealing promotion regarding down the interest or other things that can think people to loan some amount.

But I have a personal perspective regarding on taking a loan since I always make sure to use that for investment and that's not necessary or mean that I will put it up on crypto investment since its a risky decision to do, better to use the loaned amount on offline venture and use the remaining on risky matters.

Most of these people are in the poor sector, without money and food to eat, and the stress being bored all day due to the quarantine protocols. People find ways to entertain themselves, only satisfying their cravings to wager their last cash only to enjoy. Those kinds of people are compulsive gamblers.

I don't think that these don't have any money at all as they can afford to bet on their cocks and mind you, taking care a couple of fighting cocks is costly so i think they have the money. I may agree that these guys are compulsive gamblers, they can't wait for the cockfighting arena to be open again or they are just a plain hard-headed individuals that don't think that what they are doing is putting the health of their families in jeopardy.

Will this illegal cockfighting in quarantine period stops? I don't think so, they are just too many here in our country.
They arent poor and as you said this i somehow a very costly kind of gambling yet you would need to maintain up your cock to be on its best condition plus having big bets.

People who cant just understand these health protocols or restrictions neither they are poor or rich then they are really need to be penalized yet violation is always be a violation and theres no exception on that.

Agree if they are poor they cannot afford to maintain a cock since the maintenance and conditioning is so expensive also imagine the bets when you are playing in the arena or anywhere for sure you will not placed any small amount on your bets.

And people are just hard headed to obey the protocols and social status is not an excuse here they should be penalize and put behind the bars to serve as a warning to others who still doing this.

It was on another site  Wink. I was just astonished to see these kind of bets. My max bet is 1-2$  Tongue.
Just saw this player wagered yesterday 155 BTC...

I think if you can afford to bet 155 BTC then you are more then ok if you lose it. Otherwise those people are completely addicted to gambling if they are willing to risk that amount of BTC in a game like Crash. What is genious about Crash is that is quite addictive and it can really pull you in, almost as easy as roulette.

That's not ok to lose even if they can afford to bet a huge amount like that since its still a huge amount, maybe by that time the person bet is he aiming to get a huge fortune for placing that in short time period. Also I don't know if he lost already and chasing to get back his past losses that's why we see a big amount wagered.

Iba na kasi ang panahon ngayon, kapag mas nakakaakit ang headlines mo, mas maraming magbabasa ng balita mo, hindi na kasi uso na ibalita ang katotohanan, bakit ka magbabalita ng katotohanan kung kaunti lang ang gustong magbasa nito. Regarding sa mga biktima, kasalanan nila na napasok sila sa scam na yan, di man lang nagcheck ng mga kahinahinala o ika nga mga "red flags", alam ko na kahit gaano kaganda ang offer mayroong maliit na detalye na siguradong maghihinala ka, kaya sa mga baguhan sa crypto space, mag-ingat at komunsolta sa ibang tao kung mayroong mag-ooffer sa inyo at hindi kayo sigurado, malaki ang natutulong kung marami kayo kaysa sa mag-isa ka lang.

Ika nga mas controversial mas madaming views and tiyak malako din ang kita nila dito kaya expected na ang ganito lalo na sa media ang nakakabahala lng dito is ma misinterpret ito ng iba natong kababayan na walang ideya sa crypto, naka lista pa naman tayo sa mahina ang reading comprehension kaya di maiiwasan na magkaroon ng bad impact if pinagpatuloy ng mga media ang ganitong estilo.

yan ung mga hindi katiwa tiwala ang sources..kasi ang isang magaling na media reporter ay magsasaliksik, magsusuri at titimbangin ang negatibo at positbong epekto ng cryptocurrencies.. I bet mema lang yan! mema report lang.

Parang nawala na ang ganito ngayon dahil ang labanan dito ay mapadami ang engagement nila dahil mas lalong tataas ang kanilang kita.

Yes, this is a guaranteed token
BTC
The BTC maybe guaranteed but I don't think anybody is going to risk their reputation to promote a project that has been recognized as a ponzi scheme, certainly not on bitcointalk. Here, any Ponzi scheme = Scam because no matter how much they promise to pay, they eventually collapse after losing the hype and fail to pay the late "investors"

No ponzi scheme sig campaigns are successful to deploy there advertisement here and they are been stopped by the users who knows about the ponzi so well.

And imagine on how big the consequences of accepting this offer since we know many DT members will tag those user who accept a scam offer here.

For OP better work for another field and don't ever think about scamming since this will never work on this forum.

And looking further, will this then, eventually, lead to greater equality of opportunity across the world, if all you need to work a 'London job' or a 'New York job' is an internet connection and the ability to speak the language?
It is a truth that the pandemic has changed the dynamic of things when it comes to how jobs and education, many companies changed their concept and you can work at the comfort of your home and the education system can be done virtually and students can apply to universities world wide without moving to different countries and it will be a major change in the perception we had in the past.

The pandemic really change the work set-up of the world but I believe this is just a temporary solution for company and people since once everything is normal all office set up will be back and its really different vibe to work at the office although there are countries might possibly adopt this but majority cannot since there are struggles regarding on network on some countries that might intervene their productivity and effectiveness.

But let see in educational system if this will really work since we know kids are playful and might they will not learn anything on online classes.

You still fighting for a problem that you know you won't win huh? At least fight with proof in your possession, Blaberring out with just assumptions will not matter. Checking your trust feedback seems you are attacking casinos without any basis. This should be a dummy account that giving a negative impression without any basis in different casinos.

Bustabit is running for a long time now and I am confident that they fix past bugs and won't do anything to stain the name of their casino.

Why prove something to this person? All you need to know about it can be read in its trust reviews. Such people should be ignored. When they don't have those who read and respond them, then they will stop attacking others with empty accusations.  These are trolls, and they really need our attention because they are trying for the public.

Sometimes its good to answer the accusation made by the trolls so that they will be generally busted and feel the shame on theirselves that they are been busted for their tries and many people will be aware about this kind of situation. Although these things are quitely a waste of time but for the benefits of others its still worth to write for awareness and clearance on those accusation posted.
3768  Economy / Economics / Re: The pros and cons of going cashless on: August 30, 2020, 01:09:30 PM
Actually, several countries have tried to popularize cashless payments from before the COVID19 pandemic occurred.
But there are some obstacles, such as not everyone can afford a mobile phone and not all the place can be covered
by the internet network. The sad thing is there are some countries where the population cannot afford to pay internet
bills.Therefore, fully cashless cannot be realized, if there are still obstacles as I have mentioned before. In other words,
cash money is still needed.


Unfortunately, some people are unable not only to pay for Internet services, 13% of the world's population (about one billion people) don't even have access to electricity. We are talking about the inhabitants of some countries in Africa, Central and South Asia. Also, it is believed that the lower the income level of the population, the more often they use cash when paying for goods and services.

That's why it needs reform since this cashless society will never gonna happen once there are countries that cannot follow the track of the other countries, but sad to say its really hard for poor countries to follow since they are left behind interms financially and in technology.

Maybe in future once those said countries will progress and the only thing needed to make this thing happen is to choose a country leader which have great vision on how his country to became a financial competitive country.

Nakakatakot talaga ang impresyon ng iba sa Bitcoin dahil sa mga ganitong balita. Minsan ang mga nakakaalam na kumita tayo dito na mga kakilala natin magtataka satin mas lalo kung hindi nila naiintindihan kung paano tayo kumikita rito. Usong uso pa naman ang pagiging machika ng mga kababayan natin. Kaya yung ibang tao samin tingin masama ang ginagawa ko rito para kumita. Sana mabago ang tingin ng mga media sa Bitcoin, sana may isang tao man lang silang ifeature sa kanilang mga balita na yumaman dito. Para sana malinis ang imaheng bitcoin sa ating bansa.

Di talaga maiiwasan na magkaroon ng bad impression ang bitcoin o cryptocurrency sa mga tao dahil nadin sa mga media na minamali ang headlines at kapag nagpatuloy ang ganitong baluktot na gawain nila e tiyak maraming tao ang hindi na magtitiwala sa bitcoin.

At sa tingin ko rin baliwala lang ang explanation sa gitba at huli dahil kadalasan naman sa pinoy hindi nanonood o iniintindi ang content at sa headlines lang talaga nakabase ang paniniwala.

As usual malapit na kasi magpasko at sa hirap ng buhay ngayon marami nanaman ang gagawa ng kalokohan magkapera lang.

Regarding naman sa mga misleading headline ng mga media, dapat unawain ng mga reporter nila ng mabuti kung ano ba ang nature ng cryptocurrency. Maganda rin siguro na simulan ng mga media sa Pinas ang information drive about sa crypto at hindi puro scam lang ang ibabalita nila sa publiko.

Kahit di naman pasko e talamak pa din ang ganyang gawain, pero ewan bakit kaya ang daling magtiwala ng iba na kahit sa dami ng balita na ganitong modus at to good to be true profit na kikitain e nagtitiwala parin ang iba nating kababayan na mag invest sa mga loko-lokong tao.
3770  Local / Others (Pilipinas) / Misleading headline ng mga media on: August 29, 2020, 11:07:40 AM
Lubhang nakaka lungkot talaga basahin ang mga headlines ng mainstream media dahil sa mali-mali nilang headlines tungkol sa mga scam na nagaganap sa industriya ng cryptocurrency at laging nakatatak sa kanilang mga headlines at "Bitcoin Scam" O di kaya'y  " Nagoyo Dahil Sa Crypto Currency" na kung saan makakagawa ito ng bad impression sa mga hindi nakakaalam kung ano ba talaga ang cryptocurrency at pano ito ginagamit.

Latest na balita ngayon galing sa GMA ang 500k investment na itinakbo ng isang pekeng trader sa 26 nyang investor, at ang ganitong mga gawain ay paulit-ulit na ginawa at nakakapagtaka na may mga tao paring di nadadala at nagpapasilaw parin sa modus na mabilis na kita o kikita ng walang ginagawa.

kung ikaw ba naman na may degree ka tapos ang pasahod aayo eh daig panng nasa Fastfood, magtatagal ka ba, kaya talaga ang dapat sisihin eh yung school at management, etong school namin na ito maituturing ko lang na parausan ng mga walang trabaho eh, memasabing makakapagturo lang, amakin mo din nagkaroon ako ng prof na halos gawing elem teacher, ibat ibang subject hawak nya kahit hindi nya talaga dapat hawakan.

kaumay ang sistema sa totoo lang. kung hindi lang ako naghahanol ng panahon di ako magtsatsaga dito eh.
kamusta kaya sa ibang school... 🤔


Sad to say maysado ng napag iiwanan ang pilipinas in terms sa bagong kaalaman lalo na sa edukasyon dahil hindi masyado nag invest ang pamahalaan natin upang malinang lalo ang kakayahan ng mga guro/instructor sa mga makabagong teknolohiya. At tsaka nasa 3rd world din tau kaya mababa talaga ang rate natin kompara sa ibang bansa at ito talaga ang malaking disadvantage dito.

3772  Local / Others (Pilipinas) / Re: Paano natin i angat ang local at makatulong. on: August 28, 2020, 12:30:21 PM
Sobrang importante talaga ng section na ito sa mga Pilipino pero the reality here is that lahat ng nabanggit mo ay karamihan sa mga pinoy dito, sa ibang section nakukuha, not to mention na onti ang mga topics dito hindi katulad ng ibang section.

Isa lang naman talaga ang makakabuhay ng local section natin eh, ayun yong Bounty Campaign na pang Local haha. Pag may ganyan, buhay na buhay ang local natin na parang palengke sa Quiapo.
Mabubuhay talaga ang local section dito kapag yung sinalihan na bounty ay pwede talaga dito sa local section at karamihan kasi sa rules nila wala sa local section bawal talaga. At kung wala pa naman bounty pwede naman tayo dito sa local section natin para naman may ka buhay2x din ito, at kunyari share nalang kung anu mga balita sa crypto dagdag na rin yun at magtanong kung anu pa and hindi pa natin alam sa crypto kahit sa ganyan paraan naka dagdag na rin.
Tama, kung lahat lng ng bounty eh accepted ang mga post dito  sa local dadami n naman tao, kaya lang limited kung minsan, kadalasan sa mga bounty 3 post lng dito ung pinapayagan nila.

Sa ngayon marami namang bounty ang tumatanggap ng mga local post at tsaka meron ding mga btc paying campaigns na binibilang ang post dito kaya sa tingin ko less percent lang ito sa dahilan kung bakit unti-unti nagiging inactive ang local board. Pero sa nakikita kung rason talaga ay dahil sa merit system medyo mahirap ito makuha ng ilang miyembro at napakadalang talaga ng bigayan dito satin kaya ang iba nating kababayan ay nakikipag sapalaran sa international boards upang makakuha ng merit at mag rank up.

This is more interesting and for having that proposals it shows that we are near to see this, But for health and safety hopefully they will stay in one place so that they will not contaminate or get in bad shape once the bubble start. And also for accepting the proposals of dubai I think they will have a strict implementation for that matters.

Definitely, the measures will be strict and they could pattern that in the NBA that is currently having their success of the bubble now, expect with the current situation which some players have protested, but they'll resume soon, so their nothing to worry.

Back to the PBA, they will be in one venue  and the good thing if they will play in Dubai is they will not be distracted, they can fully focus on the game as they are far away from their family.

Hopefully we can hear more update about this recommendation.

I don't know if its good to play in dubai since its risky to travel, but I think its better to resume the game on province where there are zero case or less risk area. For sure there is a good impact for doing that since it could promote the local municipality where the game will be held.

But any of these hopefully we can hear their updates regarding on this since I think in september one the quarantine status will be changed and maybe PBA will roll their games for that matters.
3774  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: August 27, 2020, 11:31:30 PM
I like to ask, is that enormous enough? I think the PBA teams can afford to pay that amount monthly, they teams are own by millionaires/billionaires and I think they would still make revenue from advertisements when the season resume.

I think that it required enormous amount of money and i doubt PBA teams are willing to shoulder that. They maybe millionaires but they are businessmen, profit is what is in their minds.

Anyways, if they are not willing to spend, there's someone who is willing to fund the PBA bubble in Dubai.

Quote
Dubai organizers willing to host PBA bubble

THE planned PBA bubble is just getting bigger and farther.

Exploratory talks are now ongoing on the league holding the restart of its season in Dubai, which expressed interest in creating a bubble at the Coca-Cola Arena where teams and players will stay during the course of the Philippine Cup.

Commissioner Willie Marcial confirmed on Thursday the initial communication between the league and Mark Jan Kar, the commercial director of the famed arena in Dubai, which hosted official PBA games in the past.


This one is a better proposal, it's likely that the bubble will be a success as we might not see players violating the rules as they are going outside the bubble. Hopefully any of these proposals  will be realized as I know everyone can't wait to see the PBA season to resume.

As per report - https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/united-arab-emirates/

Dubai only has 68,511 cases while 59,472 cases have already recovered.

This is more interesting and for having that proposals it shows that we are near to see this, But for health and safety hopefully they will stay in one place so that they will not contaminate or get in bad shape once the bubble start. And also for accepting the proposals of dubai I think they will have a strict implementation for that matters.

Lol sure. Give btc to receive shitcoins.
This idea isn't new, it's called an ICO, and it's been done before to death


No you are wrong i dont want to offer some bs im not that kind of guy here.
i dont play with shietcoins and i dont trade them i look up to for only solid altcoins top 10 coins after btc.(and maybe some DEFI)
the idea you pay btc and you recevie weekly rewards of 2 good alt coins     for example:  eth and LTC    tron and stellar-

Never gona receive just one altcoin.
if you think little it can be very beneficial



the giving to btc and recevieng altcoins must be fair and kinda equal so if the project will be going to live i definately will calculate how it would work for the best way thats beneficial.

People are now aware on so many scam schemes or shall we say attempts here, so you cannot blame people to think negatively about you offer to them. And if you think your plan is solid and legit make it live first so that people will see it as good to join with. Because telling about the plans will not give any positive outlook for people who knowledgeable or maybe lets call it aware on the scam attempts here.

If you are playing gambling for almost a year or a little less, you must be very good know how of gambling. However the learning never stops and these Bitcasino articles give you something to learn even for the experienced gamblers.
yes, I know how to gamble but how to apply that strategy is really hard, even though many say it's just luck that I can get rich, but I believe with strategy I can play it safe without serious losses.

Not only my bitcasino article but all articles about gambling I will discuss, including bitcasino which they often share here.
exactly strategies can help you play safe and help you reduce your losses. I really like the articles that the bitcasino shares here about gambling i also visit their blogs and find more great articles and tips.

Totally gives a big help for some certain times if you follow it plus you add some discipline for yourself since if you have strategy but still you don't have any patience or discipline for continuously doing it then you are still prone for losses that my occur or might you will end up chasing something.

And I find those article very helpful and kudos to bitcasino for creating a helpful and interesting articles

On my own opinion still nothing since its not been adopted by the government yet and so many people doesn't know or doesn't trust this since this is new to their knowledge. Maybe we can agree with it that it changes something once government agrees to pick it and they will start collecting tax on it and also certain regulation ruled to make the life of crypto users easier.
3779  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Philippines SEC warns against crypto investment. on: August 26, 2020, 10:00:10 PM
Maybe because of this the adoption of crypto in the Philippines will be slow because we know once they have news like that came from the government people easily trust without having any research. I hope they fair about this because crypto is legit if they do more research and honestly it is good opportunity for the Filipinos people if they know the cryptocurrency.

Right now there are si many skeptical person in terms of cryptocurrency investment and I cannot blame them especially if they heard about bitcoin scams and other bad news coming from the media itself. Maybe for getting much good adoption and to at ease the fear of the people maybe the one we needed to educate first is the mainstream so that whenever there's a scam come they will be known that big coin is currency and their headlines will be corrected.

why not if the project pays for a tweet from a Bitcoin maximalist,

Not good to see this kind of act since it means that you are ok to earn while other will face the consequences that they might get scam.


but I also think it would be dangerous for beginners to invest in a project that might one day be a scam because of seeing that tweet, one of which is John McAfee also often promotes the ICO project or other because it might be paid for by the project, so I think it doesn't matter to the tweet just the bad effect is that people who don't know and invest in the wrong project might be more dangerous


This is really becoming a John Mcafee 2.0 and we shouldn't trust easily by the words provided and I hope there's no newbie will look after them and believe on the word released. We must be careful since anyone could deceive us.
