Sorry do I understand it wrong? You mean to tell me that there is one guy who have wagered 500 million dollars? That doesn't seem like I am making the right calculation. Symphonized said in the text "our first player reached Diamond 5, with over $500,000,000 wagered since Feb 2019" and that number does look like 500 million dollars, and that looks like about 2 years since that dude started as well.
Actually yeah GDLE is the name if I recall it correctly and indeed they are out of ranks because they never thought someone would be reaching but that guy did reached it. There are other guys I know who bet big like Neils and deronmiller so there are many guys who bet big and I have had the pleasure to chat with them live too at times.

Am I not calculating right, please tell me I am not calculating right because if I am calculating correctly that has to mean that there is a person who has wagered 500 million in less than 2 years, more than 250 million dollars a year, more than 20 million dollars a month!! If that is the case, that is the biggest whale in ANY casino in the world and not just crypto.
20m dollars means an estimated loss of $0.2m which is like 10-20 BTC and yeah it is a big amount but normal for whales to bet that much. I am curious what rank they are going to introduce now and how quickly he reaches that just to force them into creating a new one.

I was very confused when I was reading your post at first because you kept saying vacancies, and I never realized that you meant vaccines until I went through the comments. I don’t really agree with this, if you put it this way, that means you’re trying to say that the government were aware and planned the Coronavirus or you’re trying to say that the coronavirus news is fake and was just fabricated by the government to put fear in people?

The virus is real and has killed a lot of people, a lot of people being ignorant because they have not experienced it yet so they feel it’s all lies. Don’t be one of such people. Of course things will get better now that the lockdown has been lifted.

You might wanna include YOBIT in here too, a lot of prople are complaining ever since about their games being rigged and faking provably fair to take advantage of their patron players. Though it's great that you have this special list so we can be vigilant even more when betting. Gambling is already an unfair game, so it's best to seize every opportunity to tip the scales in our favor.
Well said, Yobit deserves to be in this list I agree because their dice game is not even provably fair if I remember right because I haven't played there since a long time so I don't know how they operate now but earlier their game was not verifiable and can't accuse them to scam but the rolls were more red than green not just some days but always.

Thanks for the nice list OP but you can add a lot more websites I think and keep the good work going. You might want to add sites like 999dice which are known scams too.
3784  Economy / Economics / Re: Here is a conspiracy theory on: November 29, 2020, 04:07:22 PM
I have seen a few people throw around your seventh theory, and they did that a lot earlier this 2020 when the coronavirus was starting to hit so many countries and China was giving out loans to them especially the developing countries; people were saying China is just laying trap for most of these countries and after they are not able to pay their debt they will come into these countries and take a land and move their Chinese people to be living in those places, and that way they will be able occupy a lot of countries.

It’s kind of funny to me, I don’t know whether it’s the truth or not.
3785  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin will be hitting to $35000 soon - Buy it today!! on: November 29, 2020, 08:23:32 AM
Now is the perfect time to buy Bitcoin, after the Bitcoin price has dropped to $ 17,000. But the $ 35,000 price target is unlikely
to be reached any time soon. Because the return to all time high prices has not yet been achieved, based on my analysis the Bitcoin
price this year will probably hit the price of $ 20,000 first. After that in 2021 the Bitcoin price will continue to rise, it is likely that
the Bitcoin price could reach $ 35,000 by the end of 2021.
Might be correct but from what we have seen once the resistances in the market break the price rises like crazy and yes 35 thousand dollars is a big number but the way the price took off recently I am not going to say its unrealistic. Whenever the price falls there are more and more people buying because they felt left out during the bull run and this is their best chance.

I am not going to buy right now because the market might drop once more and that would be the best time for getting some more. I might be wrong though and the price could take off to 30-35k dollars in a blink.
3786  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: who actually moves the price of bitcoin? on: November 29, 2020, 07:48:23 AM
Actually we are the one who moved the bitcoin value when it increased it means we are buying lot and if the price down more people are selling or panic their bitcoin.
Yeah, it is like one impacts everyone and everyone impacts one basically, as we make any order we directly impact the market for everyone and everyone who trades impact the market for us. I don't think everyone sells in panic though because people naturally also sell their coins when they need money or they feel the price is exaggerated and is about to drop so that they can buy at cheaper price again.

Movement of the bitcoin is depends on us on how many demands in the bitcoin the more demands the more chance to rise it like what happened right now a lot of user are buying bitcoin but the big impact with that is a project who helpful to increase a value of the bitcoin the more partnership to this coin the more chance to rise it.
The biggest comes from huge investments like PayPal buying 70% of the new coins that are being mined which creates massive public demand for Bitcoins and hence the price keeps rising and once demand stops a correction happens often termed as bear run.
3787  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Best Crypto SPORTS Bookies VOTE on: November 29, 2020, 04:53:42 AM
looks like sportsbet is leading on the poll, i was curious what could be the "others" bookies? looks like most of the bookies are already listed on op's poll. i just realized we have a lot of bookies on here i know some of them just for their casino such as bitsler.
Yes, bitsler has recently only added sports and they are doing good but some of the features are missing like the cashout of bets which is a crucial part of gambling. These small things add up for a gambler when voting and this is the reason why sportsbet.io is everyone's favorite because they have the best features and additional features like bet builder and then they have the best live support as well along with so many promotions.

I would like to know the people who voted for others which site are they exactly talking about? I cannot remember many other sportsbooks so would be great to know which other sports bets are there in the market.
3788  Economy / Gambling / Re: Sportsbooks that aren’t paying out on Biden winning the US Presidential Election on: November 28, 2020, 08:23:35 PM
PA just declared that they will not be providing any court hearing for Trump team as well, they have verified and certified the results, on December 14th the electoral college will get together and there is probably not that many faithless voters neither, hell there are people saying trump ones could even switch to Biden at the last minute there as well but I doubt that is the case.

So, by 14th December is the last option sportsbooks have, if EC ends up voting for Biden and ends the discussion, there is NOTHING trump can do even legally as well, it's done, it is kaput, it is finished job. Until that day all he can do is go to supreme court once more, to make the local courts hear him instead of reject him, and without any evidence (which they have put forward zero so far) that would still end up with a rejection lol.
3789  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Satoshi Nakamoto Lived In London While Working On Bitcoin + proof on: November 28, 2020, 06:59:20 PM
How sure are we about these claims? Though I will agree that I have seen theories that said Satoshi Nakamoto writings are mix of British and American English and some say it’s only British English, but there have also been claims that he’s from Japan.

Even on Wikipedia it says that he was born in Japan, and his nationality is Japan. Then just today I have seen another forum member that posted a theory that claims that Satoshi Nakamoto is from Russia and that the Russian government must be aware of it and are covering it up, and this website also have their own “proof”, lol you all have proof. You know what? I am just tired of all these theories, I will just wait till Satoshi is ready to reveal his identity with proof.
3790  Economy / Economics / Re: Will Crypto live forever or die? on: November 28, 2020, 02:26:22 PM
Crypto will live forever as long as there is an internet,
And as long as there are no problems arising out of the blue like if a bug is found that can destroy everything because while crypto currencies are great and Bitcoin is as robust as anything but a small bug can change everything.

Also, we should not expect a world war to happen. The world has more understanding in their power than before, the government in each country much prefer to have piece like we currently have than having a war and fight for each countries rights. There won't be useless war that will occur because everything can be settle.
The war might have happened had the economic crisis continued but now since everything is started to get back to normal and the vaccine is found we should not have any wars in future. There was tension between America and China but I believe things are very well under control.
3791  Other / Archival / Re: [GUIDE] All About Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) on: November 28, 2020, 12:46:00 PM
When people say CBDC is being created because of coronavirus, I just don’t get it. It’s just like as if there isn’t other contactless payment methods that we can use, there are so many of them out there and even the mobile bank applications we are using these days are contactless, you don’t need to make any physical or hand contact with the person you’re sending money, you just ask for their account number and you open your app and send.

Not to talk about Bitcoin, there is PayPal, there is also Payoneer, there is Square Inc., and so many ways we can send money without making contact, so how exactly are they saying CBDC is saving us from Coronavirus? They should simply say it’s just an advancement in technology and using unnecessary description.
3792  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Gang uses crypto for illegal purposes on: November 28, 2020, 09:29:40 AM
The biggest gang in China is their government, and Liao Jinrong, being a senior official, is a part of it. I hope the new generation of Chinese people will sweep away this corrupted to the bone government, and China will be able to breathe freely.

I don't think it's going to happen, they have control on everything and they communist party is so good in controlling everything that any form of rebellion will not succeed, I like the communist China than the communistic way of ruling of North Korea.
Yes and Chinese government is actually more caring than the North Korean ruler and no matter what we way one can see how they controlled the covid-19 spread in their country which actually started from them so no matter how much we hate them but they are good for their people at least.

Now coming back to the use of gambling crypto funds for illegal activities, look you cannot control that because its decentralized and the casinos will not give any details about their players so it is nearly impossible to control such activities. Many gamblers are evading taxes by using crypto and things like these will continue forever as long as cryptocurrencies exists.
3793  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Stake or nitrogen my point of view on: November 28, 2020, 05:22:01 AM
Which one required KYC ? I have accounts on both sites and no KYC so far usually it only becomes a requirement if you violated the terms and conditions or play with high stakes.
Yeah, true but one thing that makes me feel ballistic is why the user is asked to provide verification once they win big, I mean while he was losing big he won't be asked for any kind of verification but just because he wins something significant the website wants to wastes no chance and ask verification just to make sure that if there is a chance to gobble his money, they shall do so.

It's a good comparison since Nitrogen was like the go to bitcoin sportsbook back then and on the other side you have a recently launched sportsbook that's providing a better experience. You're right both have good reputation but once you've played on both sites you can't avoid the thought of making a comparison between them.
Stake has some bad limits on e-sports which is the only bad thing about them apart from that they have almost everything covered from bonuses to support and a friendly chat managed well by the moderators to avoid any kind of spam.
3794  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2020/21 on: November 27, 2020, 03:38:17 PM
Barcelona had nothing to lose morale to begin with, I do not get why people do not realize that Barcelona is two games behind most of their opponents in the league that has only 8-10 games played which means them starting to "badly" is due to teams making only few points in the early games and missing two games makes a whole lot of difference. That is the whole situation right now and there is nothing more.

I understand that there are many injured and I understand that they had some turmoil inside the team that ended up with president resigning but that doesn't mean that they have been horrible neither. They have been decent in champions league as well. I see them finishing top three easily and they could go to quarter finals in CL as well as usual.
3795  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: When will the current Bull run stop on: November 27, 2020, 06:11:28 AM
While without a doubt that is a possibility at the same time there is potential for an even bigger growth, the market has the potential to go completely crazy after we surpass the ATH of bitcoin and people are going to be incredibly excited about what it is in store for bitcoin, but at the same time you need to have your stop loss ready because if there is a flash crash you do not want to be one of those that loses all of their profits just because a whale decided to sell their coins.
I think a lot of people will sell their coins at the ATH because they have wounds from 2017 when the price dropped and people are thinking about not missing this chance to cash their coins at the price they lost hope about.

I think as soon as bitcoin will cost more than 20k there will be a lot of news about it and many people won't buy it at that price. I think that after 20k the price will fall but the price will not go below 11k. I think the price of bitcoin will fall when the correction starts in the stock market.
On the contrary I think 25k is possible and we might be staring at 30-35k by the Q2 in 2021. I am not going to make any bold predictions or speculate the price but there are solid chance that we might never see Bitcoin below 20k ever again after this year. I might be wrong though so don't hold me responsible in case it drops.

Fenesbaros (is that the name of the team?) should be a a walk in the park for Juventus...

Close enough, you got the first two (last two) letters right.  Grin
I sure hope is a cakewalk for them, my lineup: Szczesny, de Ligt, Mbappe, Rashford, Torres, Morata (c).
Everyone is probably going with Lewandowski, Ronaldo or Haaland as their forward (captain), i need VAR to chill and stop disallowing Morata's goals and i should be fine. My secret weapon is Ferran Torres, i expect a goal or two if he plays tomorrow.

edit; GG Morata not in the starting eleven for Juve  Cheesy
As always Ronado proved to be a great pick, Morata was really a big surprise because he wasn't really considered at first. I would say last night has been one of the most active football nights in recent memory, this pandemic probably had just one good thing in the world and that is giving us many games very frequently all back to back and even at the same time as well.

Champions league has always been around the same days but usually had like one or two night difference, now we are seeing like 10+ games a night. Plus leagues and cups and all that still going on with this, while we are all locked in our homes and can't do anything because of a virus going around outside, football really helped a lot while staying at home, allows people to spend some time without going crazy.
3797  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Poker Site Buys $100 Million of Bitcoin Every Month to Pay Players in BTC on: November 26, 2020, 05:41:38 PM
Sounds good but how they are managing is really simple because the article mentioned that "WPN does not hold onto bitcoin, adding that the cryptocurrency is converted into fiat currency as soon as possible." which is the right way for them to do it.

It is also mentioned that 95% players are demanding payments in Bitccoin which is actually massive given there are other payment options too but because of the price hike recently or maybe for anonymity I don't know but 95% is really big.

One thing that was cool is that players can deposit with USD and withdraw with BTC because at most sites you can only withdraw what you deposited.
3798  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Multi bets vs single bets on: November 26, 2020, 04:30:08 PM
What could be the difference of multi bets to single bets? Does multi bets means placing a fixed amount to different number of games? or something like accumulator which combines multiple bet into one bet?
Multi-bet means combining a lot of bets into a single bet and this is usually one to gain high odds but the problem is that if one leg loses (leg means one outcome basically) your bet will be lost.

I prefer making single bets over multi-bets because it is easier to win each bet and actually if you have the ability to make a multi-bet where you win 10/10 legs then it is better to bet on those 10 bets as singles because in that case if you even win 6 out of 10 bets you should still be in profit and in case all 10 hits you will make good profit although not as much as betting the amount on multi.
3799  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: US Presidential Election 2020 and its impact on gambling on: November 25, 2020, 07:35:38 PM
It is weird to see this many Trump fans in bitcointalk as well but considering dude got 70+ million votes from just USA and probably have some fans overseas as well, I would say there are at least 100+ million Trump fans in the world and obviously having some here is not shocking.

First of all, there were not even a single case of election fraud found, Trump team literally fought to find one, and if they couldn't find a single evidence of it, why are you still listening to Trump and not the proof? And secondly Democrats didn't spend "billions more" than republicans, it was literally 280 million dollar difference, mainly used to beat Lindsay Graham and there were plenty of places in USA where republicans got more money. And House is still at democrats with Georgia run-off could go to democrats which would mean senate majority. That should be scaaaaary for you republicans because if democrats get all three, you are as gone as it can be forever.
3800  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: who actually moves the price of bitcoin? on: November 25, 2020, 04:17:20 PM
New institution, big investors and newcomers that are just getting into digital currencies' era are the one that moves the price often. The demand is higher than the limited supply of BTC, there is nothing we should expect than the price to drive crazy as we are having it presently.
This is what makes me crazy thinking why the price goes down then?
I mean the supply is always going to get smaller then why at times there are big price drops because there is no reason why any whale would dump their coins and if even they do, it is not possible to move the market by much.
