I have seen my fair share of this thread and yeah they do fade out. Maybe they accumulated losses or they got an enormous profit and they do not want to share the secret. If OP can post images, hopefully OP should post the pictures in the thread. I am lazy when it comes to checking links and my Internet is shitty so that helps a lot.

Debt in a national scale is not something a country can avoid, I think the efficient and proper distribution of borrowed funds is the key to utilize the full potential of a national debt.

OP seems to hate having a debt. If you are practical when it comes to finance then you could have avoided one. I do not know your lifestyle but I think it is time to be self aware whether you have the solution or you are part of the problem, stop blaming the government everything that is happening to you.

Pretty sure most lads that is involve in bitcoin or cryptocurrency in general wouldn't want their faces plastered all over the Internet. That is just my cup of tea so do not mind and good luck finding someone.

This is all that you can do with it. You can't take the money back unless the culprit is apprehended in real world, which is also harder because they might not be from your country. This serves as a lesson for you and everyone else, next time make sure that you get the product first especially if it is a P2P transaction.

Knowledge becomes too much when you are obsessed down to the detail and yet the results are still the same. Just know how the game works and listen to sports commentaries, you do not have to be an analyst to do that. In the end the darling of the crowd will be the likely winner and other than maybe a clincher will happen or a miracle happen.

There are things that you can do to prevent falling into spiral with gambling in the first place.  The hardest one that I can think of is self-awareness, what I mean by that is fully acknowledging yourself, even the bad traits you have should be acknowledge because the longer you deny it, it will become a pent up emotion that will burst out of proportions. If you think that you can get obsessed with things then you can prevent yourself from falling out. This is just one of the measures that can help you prevent being introduced to gambling, like a cliche, prevention is better than cure.

With the conditions in most casinos in my country, I do think online is a pretty good choice for me. It is my opinion, going to casino with stale air that traps cigarette smokes makes an off putting atmosphere and for me, I do not like that kind of atmosphere. I think my opinion is justified with tons of studies and the fact that second hand smoking is more deadly than first second hand smoking. If you consider the friends factor, then you can just host a game in the comfort of your home. Online gambling is way better for me but that will be different for other people.

I think it is better if you do what you are doing right now, yes the returns are low but imagine the long term benefit of safe bet, you have more winnings and your losses are winnable by playing one or two bets then compare it if you are a long time high risk betting, though the reward for all the risk is high the chances that you lose are high also because it is the unfavorable bet, basically winning once will not do you justice when you are losing twice.

They are registered in tax havens unfortunately, we can't do much because most tax haven get their profit from becoming a haven for shady business, this is a useful for tax evaders and scammers because their identity are fabricated. If we update our regulation regarding this cases because there are a lot of people who are tax evading under the noses, remember Panama Papers where a lot of shell companies sprouted andwas connected to influential people.

Technically, all gambling sites accept everyone. They are just compliant to the law because the last thing that you want for your business is bureaucratic hounds tailing you. Crypto gambling sites are elusive for normal gamblers, they should be seeked personally because most of them are not following the rules and regulation.

Big games have have a chance of being rigged but I think it is more of a small scale, maybe players are involved in the rigging but the entire organization is unlikely. There is still a possibility that NBA will rig their games given their executives are hungry for money, remember when NBA apologized to China when one of their executives put a tweet that supports Hongkong during the protest. Given that they had kissed the ass of China means that they will do anything for money.

1. This smells like a cult. Remember Jonestown, they tried to isolate their commune and look what happened. If you are foreigners and you try to own a land near Mindanao or Visayan island, be careful because there are bandits that will target you for ransom money.
2. Not really, PH is a pretty friendly country when it comes to foreigner. Just keep your trangressions to yourself and you are good to go. Philippines is not that populated by Muslim, maybe what you are referring to is Indonesia.

You must be a higher being because I do not understand it. Can you interpret your holy findings to a pleb like me?

Maybe the reason that the fund for pandemic recovery was small was because the people that was infected and affected by the virus was also small. That 4 trillion that was printed was because got more infection rate during the pandemic.

I have a mantra when it comes to donation or backing projects. Any crowdfunding is either a scam or shitty product/services. There are few start ups that are even worth a damn and shitty start ups are outweighing this good intent people. I know that people are generous but be careful who you are donating to because these leeches know how emotions work.

I think OP has a point, competitors breed new policy for existing services. I agree that there will be problems and it is not easy as you say but no harm in the idea that tech giants release their payment services. Unfortunately, companies have different priorities and no harm with that.

Ah yes the good old double your money scheme. Scam accusations board have boatloads of sites like this that have been exposed. OP will not answer to these thread because OP is guilty. I hope that a miracle happens and OP replies.

It is a half and half in my opinion. The reason for that is the price fluctuation is volatile that it becomes a double edged sword. It is still a good investment because benefits outweigh the risks (only if you do not hedge all your money in bitcoin, the risk increases). It has been an investment since its inception, the problem is that back then, there are few believers and a lot of skeptics.

That is what I have in mind too. After all, we all should be anonymous on the Internet. We are not celebrities and I think these curious people should widen their social circle because they care more about Internet friends, not that I am saying that it is bad but people in the Internet are not permanent friends (there will be exceptions). Follow satoshi's footsteps.

Ever since naman target talaga ng mga scammer yung mga newbie, ang tanging hadlang lang sa mga potential na biktima is maraming informed na tao ang tumutulong para mas marami pa ang may alam. Ang malungkot lang is marami ang ignorante kasi malaking pera yung pinapangako nung mga scammer. Para sa mga newbie naman, kung may nakita kayo na ganyan, wag niyo ng pansinin dahil walang pera dyan. Madali lang sila maidentify, if yung post is generic na English or Tagalog about success story chances ay scam sila.
