To put it simply — ang cloud mining is either a scam/ponzi scheme, or very unprofitable(in the mid-long term). Kung gusto mag mine ng bitcoin or any crypto na PoW, go buy mining hardware.
Para sa lahat ng interested dito na gusto mag-mine, makinig kayo dito at wag na wag nyong susubukan yang cloud mining dahil never naging legitimate ang online/cloud mining.

Based na rin ito sa experience ko from way back 2015 or 2016 sa "Hashocean" ata yung tawag dun. Sa pagkakaalala ko actively paying sya ng ilang years din at may mga nag-invest rin ng malaki para pataasin yung hash power para lumaki yung kikitain pero bigla na lang silang hindi nagbayad na maraming na-scam. May mga sumunod na cloud mining website pero same pattern lang sya na paying sa simula pero after a while wala na rin. In short, ponzi scheme.

Go with physical hardware mining or maginvest ng mining rig pero isipin muna ng mabuti kasi yung operating at maintenance cost ng hardware mining ay medyo pricy.

Kakaunti lang ang active dito and may merit thread naren naman unfortunately hinde paren ito napapansin and yung iba ay di paren talaga active sa local section na ito. Napapansin ko sa mga merit thread yung topic na kanilang shineshare ay hinde naman dito sa local section, most of them sa other section.

Let’s hope na maging successful itong thread na ito at sana maging active na ang lahat. Smiley
Yun nga eh, merong merit thread na sa local section natin which is itong Merit Quality content threads deserved to have merit. kaso most of the threads at post na nilalagay ay from other global boards. Pero sa tingin ko, medjo appropriate yun dahil parang diba dapat no need na i-post dun since sa local board naman natin yung thread and hindi na dapat i-recommend for merit since kita naman natin agad yun at kung deserving of merit talaga ay bigyan natin kahit hindi i-post doon sa thread ni Peanutswar. Siguro maliban na lang kung replies yung gustong ipa-check for merit.

Hindi ako regular poster dito sa local board natin dahil na din sa signature campaign rules na mas preferred nila ang gambling board pero kahit na maya allowable post dito ay hindi ko na din ginagamit dahil wala na din ako masyadong trip na topic at mababa ang interaction kaya mas maganda na din sa global dahil mas active ang mga user dun.

Nagsimula din ako sa forum na sobrang active dito sa local board at madaming nagshashare ng tips at tricks kung paano kumita dito sa forum or sa crypto in general pero nawala na din kasi talaga yung mga batikan na contributor dito at puro general discussion nalang. Sana bumalik yung dating sigla dito sa local kagaya ng dati na tulungan at chill lang sa kwentuhan. Sana magsimula muli yung era na sharing ang goal ng lahat.
Same goes sa campaign ko na limited lang yung accepted na post sa board natin pero I try to maximize it para mabuhay at maging active yung board natin.

Unfortunately, maraming inactive na reputable member sa local board natin dahil din siguro sa bear market at yung iba naman ay nag-shift sa trading at ibang way para kumita ng crypto. Based to sa mga kakilala ko rito sa forum. Yung iba naman hindi na masyadong naging active dahil sa mga issues sa forum like yung sa donation initiative at scam accusation like loan default.

It's awful when in plain XXI Century people still support animal fights. It is even more despicable having someone making money from that. Cock fight is just like a dog fight, it is f%$7&in&/%$/%&$ horrendous. I apologize to tell you but, people who favour this sort of activity should be behind bars for life.
I personally despize people who support animal abuse. I mean, what is wrong with people!? We already enslave animals on industrialized farms. Every day thousands of animals die so that we can eat. Isn't that enough?

Now, animal fights only exist due to the people who place bets, so if you are one of those, I strongly encourage you to refrain from doing so. We have come to a phase in our Human development, where we do not need that sort of savagery anymore. It is not just wars... How the hell are we supposed to build a better world for our children when things like this are not banned?
Agreed, you're right about how horrendous these kinds of activities are especially since times have already changed and this should be avoided as much as possible however these activities are part of the culture of these countries which makes it hard to stop. I'm from a country where cock fighting is too common where you may see it in any place you visit and unfortunately, it some people are against it, they can't stop it as it is already a part of our culture, and it is a common activity on most festivals on provincial part of my country.

Also, this can be said for other animal activities in other countries such as Bull Riding and Horse Race where animals are used to compete with each other or subjected to a stressful environment which are also common cultural activities in those countries.

Well, I don't think telling the truth is being pessimistic or negative, the truth is the truth even though most times, it is not always pleasing to say or hear.,
Several times I've spend money buying lots or lottery tickets sometimes in the ton of 10,000, 20,000, even 50,000 to 100,000, I've never won a dime, yeah, that how unlucky I am personally
At this moment I see on freebitco.in 133 million lottery tickets, constantly growing. Let's say for the sake of simplicity that until tomorrow's lottery there are 150 million tickets. In the most extreme case, if you have bought 100,000 tickets, you have 0.07% of the tickets. What do you expect to get with that?
Bud, I can tell you classically that that WIN CHANCE you see there is absolute bullshit, maybe you have never played lottery on Freebitco before, or maybe you do but do not pay attention to details, sometimes, people win the first, second and even third possible of the lottery table which far lesser number of tickets, to confirm this to you, the table below is from the last round of the lottery, round 390, there, you can see the total lottery tickets brought, over 170 million, in the list of winners, you can see players who won with as little as 500 or lesser number of tickets...
Sometimes I feel this thing is rigged..
~snip~
this is what makes me believe that there is no need to buy a lottery ticket if at the opportunity to generate a free lottery ticket every hour of doing rolls I think that is enough to get a free lottery ticket, even if it's only a small chance to win at least if luck is on our side it will come to us alone
I don't really think that there are a lot of people out there who are buying tickets in hopes of winning the lottery even those users who have a lot of tickets, such as millions of tickets. Most probably those users earn those tickets thru bets and rolls. It is unlikely to win this lottery, especially that there are a lot of tickets generated every week but still, I'm waiting to experience it myself not specifically the first but at least any of the 10 winners. 

Sometimes I feel this thing is rigged..
Highly doubt it, especially since some of the winners have posted their winnings on this thread and they are random, some are random members, and some are high-ranked members which make it look more legit.

Thanks yeah we are going to try to have the best support with multiple channels Email, Phone , Telegram , Signal etc
I hope you will have a good start in the crypto industry mate through the service you will show in creating customer support, Telegram group, Email, landline, and Signal.

By the way, when do you plan to start a casino here in the world of cryptocurrency? Will you have a campaign for this? But I hope you have a bounty for this because this is the only method that is effective to get to know your casino right away and the marketing strategy that you will also do must be good.
Most likely the main reason why OP wanted to start up his own casino is probably how great the gambling industry is, especially with how high the market and profit flow on a casino. Also, AFAIK, OP has backgrounds in gambling and casino and has connections to help him start his business. However, it will be a great initiative if OP will be able to explain his reason, but I don't think it is necessary to do so as long as he will be able to provide the service his offering.

Anyways, I expect OP to have great customer service on his platform to avoid withholding any issue that will arise as those are what makes casinos reputation good or not.

Anong roadmap roadmap, walang ganyan sa MDP. Kapag naghanap ka ng update sa roadmap, ban ka pa nila. hahaha

About naman sa pondo, kaya sila nagpapaevents para makalikom ulit ng pera para sa holidays. Wait na lang natin next event nila sa Christmas, baka umabot sa pang-ham man lang yung prize sa next event nila.

HAHA natawa ako dun a. Biglang nawala parang bula iyong roadmap. Hinanap ko ulit sa website nila e. Wala talaga iyong direct link doon na dati makikita pa natin sa top page ng website nila. Dahil di na nasunod, tinanggal nila.

Diba sa pagkakaalala ko, iyong original roadmap is binago nila. Ang nasunod lang sa roadmap is iyong World Boss haha.

Grabe, di ba nila naisip na kung walang roadmap na kahit di nasusunod, lalo tatamlay mga supporters nila. Ano kaya nasa isip ngayon ng mga devs.
Ang nangyari kasi nagagamit against them yung mismong roadmap nila kaya hindi na rin nila sinama kahit sa whitepaper o website nila, hindi na natin makikita yun. Diba nga kahit mention lang natin yung roadmap yung sa mga groups nila like Telegram o Discord, may malaking chance na ma-ban tayo sa mga groups na yun kahit walang malice yung question mo dun.

Pero yung nga, no roadmap means no plan tulad ng project nila kaya walang maayos na development yung laro nila, tulad nga ng sabi mo focus lang sila sa world boss na di maayos.

Maraming quality poster sa mga kababayan na natin kaso halos lahat sila mas pinipili talagang magpost sa ibang board like Economics at Bitcoin Discussion dahil kung dito nila ipopost yun ay baka wala silang makuhang credit o merit sa effort nila.

Kung titignan yung stats na ginawa ni Peanutswar, [STATS] Local Board Pilipinas - Statistics Center (Updated 10/04/2019), isa tayo sa active board pero lowest tayo sa merit. Kahit naman dati na may merit source tayo hindi ka pa rin kakaunti lang yung mga nakakareceive ng merit dahil kung titignan mo yung merit source ng ibang local board, sobrang galante nila at madali lang sila magbigay ng 5-50 merits. Unlike sa previous merit source natin na sobrang strict when it comes to merit at hindi pa generous kaya hirap paikutin yung merit throughout sa local board natin.
388  Local / Others (Pilipinas) / Re: Pilipinas Merit Cafe on: November 24, 2022, 04:30:04 AM
Sobrang gandang initiative ito lalo't kulang na kulang yung circulation ng merit sa Local Board natin. Kung ikukumpara natin ang Philippines Board sa ibang local boards, isa tayo sa may pinakamababang post per merit unlike sa ibang local boards na halos doon na sila nagrank dahil sa mga merit na galing sa local boards nila.

Tulad nga ng previous thread na TIME TO LOOK FOR A NEW MERIT SOURCE! halos walang willing or kung meron man ay hindi sila qualified. Tsaka about sa application ni cwrth, medjo matagal na yung application kaya parang ang ihirap i-up or supportahan. Pero if in any case naman na may mag apply o re-apply as merit source para sa Pilipinas board, maasahan nya yung supporta ko at possible na maghikayat pa ako dito.

389  Other / Off-topic / Re: Lay off vs Pay cut on: November 21, 2022, 11:25:42 PM
Let's suppose your boss called you into his/her office and explained the company's situation. He/she then gives you the option of getting laid off or taking a 50% pay cut. If you were to choose one of these options, what would it be and why?
A 50% pay cut is too big to consider, but offset by reduced workload and hours it could still be considered. I can still work if this salary deduction agreement is temporary and will be evaluated within a year. But if there's no agreement, then I have no reason to stay.

But then again, 50% is too much to be accepted by any employee in a company. 20% - 30% will be reasonable once they give reasons why this is done to their employees.
It would be better to evaluate whether the amount of pay cut sill be rational to the work load being done on the company. If you will still retain the workload you've had and have a pay cut mainly because of how the company is going, then it would be better to apply elsewhere.

They should be reasonable for the amount they'll be cutting off their employees salary which isn't always the case, that's why laying off is done.
390  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Running a casino during crypto crash on: November 21, 2022, 11:12:03 PM
Hello guys, as an attempt to protect new or old users on this forum , I think its mandatory for gambling sites to show proof of money they are holding in reserves  . Unless casinos converts all deposits to a stablecoin , excluding UST hahahah , from year to date most of them should be running on a loss as most utilized crypto coins are down by atleast 65% and that includes Bitcoin .

There will be more and more accusations  created to existing and also new casinos.

 Goodluck,Be safe and smart out there!!

That would be a good idea but I don't think the majority of casinos would like to show their assets some casinos would like to have an edge in the market and will try to manipulate it, it will become a battle on who has the most reserve or assets when it should have been on reputation, you can easily check casinos capability to pay based on their winners' winning many casinos have this on their page, as long as they are paying their winners they are good to go, and as long as there are no pending complaints about nonpayment.
But I love to see a casino start this trend.
Indeed, most of the casinos out there would not want to disclose any information about their reserves and I don't think they are required to do so just becuase the market is down.

Also, the more that the casinos has much more reserves and assets to pay off their users winnings the more it's trustworthiness and reputation gets better as no one would like to have any issue with their withdrawal.

at least i know that it turns out that lottery winners get notifications via email, i thought it was no notification via email because i never got it so i can relax to wait for the email from freebitcoin and get a surprise from the weekly lottery,

At least you know you do not need to check the page, as information comes directly to you;-)
That's the great thing about people sharing information here on the forum, most of us doesn't really know that lottery winners get notified through their email. I have always thought that you'll have to check it for yourself on your account balance.

Anyways, if you think about it, information about lottery always gets to us such as the recent announcement of lottery winner above.

2 days left for crypto, I think it is better to play all-in for FUN $0.005-$0.0075
Yep, already made an all-in bet with this one along with BTC at $15,001 - $17,500 as I don't see any chance that it'll go out of that range anytime soon.

Half of my winnings from both of these will be converted to FUN tokens for more WOF spins.
392  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is The Gambling Industry Part Of The Domino Effect That Happens In The Market on: November 21, 2022, 03:01:24 PM
Do you think The Gambling Industry Is Part Of The Domino Effect That Happens In The Market?
Yes, they'll also be affected by how the current market is as they are also a business. However, I doubt that there'll be any major effects on most trusted casinos, especially old ones as what price bitcoin is it will still be 1BTC = 1BTC
Will the industry lose the trust of gamblers if one or two casinos scammed their players by closing down and running with what money they have that belongs to the gamblers?
Yes and no. Yes, as people will tend to be more anxious if more and more casinos will go down. No, as those casinos are not related to other casinos.

As a gambler do you use gambling sites to store your coins like what traders are doing on exchanges?
No for most of my coins and only those that I'll gamble with. Just as what theymos noted on the forum, "Reminder: do not keep your money in online accounts"

What would gamblers think if a casino does not agree to show proof of money from new and old casinos
For me, I don't mind if they won't be able to disclose their funds for their casino. They have the right to not disclose this information to the public not until they needed to such as if there will be accusations made on the platform.
393  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: We Feel All The Emotions When We Gamble on: November 21, 2022, 02:49:01 PM
Normal to get caught up by our emotion since there are some situation which is uncontrollable especially when we are caught off guard and want to chase back the losses we got. Most of newbies encounter this and sometimes its hard to follow what we set up because if we are in the game sometimes we forget about our game plan and continue the game because we still enjoy playing.

Emotions play an important role in determining the way we think and behave to make decisions and act. When it comes to gambling, emotions will always be involved without us realizing it and play a role in every action and decision we make.

So like you said, it's natural that we get caught up in every situation that involves emotions. whether it's when you get a win, jackpot, it's hard to stop the game or even we tend to follow our emotional desire to continue the gambling side despite the fact that we are experiencing big losses. and this can happen to all of us, even though we basically have very good self-control. sometimes, there are times when emotions will dominate and control us in certain situations.

Emotions too, which make us enjoy every betting session and emotions also give us an extraordinary sensation when we get a big win.
Unfortunately, one of the most important things that we need to control most is our emotion when gambling as it tends to divert our decision from logic. Emotion may be hard to control especially when the situation requires us such as winning continuously however, we must keep our composure and let logic dictate whether we continue or stop gambling as it is where our winnings will depend on whether we win some or lose all of it.

Anyways, I'm not saying that we should not have emotion but rather we must control it and let logic decide our move until our gambling session end.
394  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Losing $350,000 because of a friend, what would you do? on: November 21, 2022, 03:18:24 AM
Actually, it's not always bad to have a joint gambling account as I have one myself with one of my friends which is just mainly for sportsbetting as we want to maximize our profit by having a larger bankroll. One thing that we established before making the decision of sharing an account is that we will make a decision where we can both agree on but if in any case one of us is not available to make a decision then we have a certain amount limit to bet on to avoid losing a huge chunk of our bankroll. Also, we never blame each other if one of us bet and lost as we both share our winnings as well as when we lose.
Maybe you don't think that's always a bad thing because as long as we can be honest using that shared account, no problem will happen. There may be a way to avoid getting into trouble later; if you want, you can make a pact between the two of you. But I still don't want to share accounts with my friends; instead, I will suggest they create their own accounts and gamble together. That's probably a good way for us because we learn to be responsible for managing our accounts.
You don't need to made a pact to each other as long as both of you have agreed on disclosing information regarding every bet you'll both made. Also, it's best to only do this to someone you personally know so that you won't have any issue trusting each other.
I don't personally suggest sharing an account to every gambling activities you made as not all bets should be shared on as some are better done separately. We only do this on sports betting and not on other kind of gambling games.

This often happens to me when opening the free WOF on my email on my PC especially on Chrome browser however it works fine on other browsers such as edge or firefox. This is an easy fix, just try to refresh it or open it on other browsers. Also, spinning on your phone might work as I never encountered that issue when opening WOF on my phone. The issue may be on the captcha itself on your browser which is why you can't spin on the WOF.
I also think for a while it's better to do another alternative that can be done, actually you don't need to use another browser but just use a private browser it seems it's working fine, maybe it's because the slow internet makes the captcha not load properly
This happened again with me today. I tried to spin the WoF spin on my laptop but the captcha kept on loading.
Then at the same time I opened it in my mobile and fortunately it worked and I was able to spin the WoF spin.
I wonder why it did not work the previous time since I had spin the WoF on mobile previously too.
Since the issue keeps insisting and you have experienced it a second time, I suggest you follow all the suggestions provided on this thread regarding your issue. Clearing the cache on your browser could fix it or probably try re-installing your browser and see if the issue still persists or even try to log-in using other browsers available on your laptop. You can also check lan cable to see if you have any internet issues.

At least, you've identified that the issue might probably on your laptop since it works fine on your phone.
396  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you a gambling addict? on: November 20, 2022, 01:38:23 PM
A few years ago when I started with Online Poker gambling, I was getting obsessed by it and without even noticing it I was getting addicted. I started gambling poker over at Pokerstarts and was pretty successful from the beginning. I could actually make some money but it wasn't enough for the time wasted in the game.

I would come home from work straight to the computer to play poker tournaments, which, as you know, is very time-consuming. I would stay hours on playing and wasn't getting any dinner or any sleep. And this for just a few coppers. Sometimes you would stay on the money, but other times I would simply waste a lot of time and get no prize. This went on and on, and even with some winnings my wife was getting worried because I wouldn't go out and on the weekends and stay home doing the same thing all over again.

This went on and on until it started to affect my personal life and my wife even threatened to leave me. This was when I saw I had a problem with gambling and was able to walk away: For me, it was simple to get away as I am a very active guy and do a lot of sports, so I took skate and surf and left gambling behind to fight for my family.

So, long story short, I was about to lose my family because of gambling but was able to recognise the signs before it actually happened. Today, I still play poker online but I know when to stop and how precious is my time, so I can actually live with it without having any negative impact.
Good thing that you were able to notice the problem that gambling has caused not only to your life but also to your loved ones. Just as I previously mentioned in your thread, Unfortunately, we aren't the first persons to see the problem that gambling addiction affects us but rather the people around us and it's a good thing that your wife was able to inform you about it and even made you recognize the issue it causes both of your lives.

Also, Kudos to you as well since you listened to your wife and did not hesitate to fix your gambling addiction and focus elsewhere such as sports. Hopefully, you will look out for future signs in case your gambling activities will cause you any issues again.
397  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Distortion Pattern on: November 20, 2022, 09:12:45 AM
I'm sure many can relate to this illustration. Almost most of the crypto gamblings, when there is a new depositor on their platform, will first give it a win as a trap for new gamblers.
I also think i'm suited to pattern 3 because that's how it started. You'll experience to win in gambling and got hooked thinking the same result might happen again and so it's the start of your gambling activity. However, i'm not the type who will chase my losses because I can't accept what happened. I still gamble because it's fun and entertaining and that's the reason why I keep playing. Of course it's really nice to win but we know it can't happen often as the house always win.

Thus it's best not to have high hopes so you can control yourself to refrain from depositing to chase back what you have lost.
Pattern 3 is the most related scenario other than pattern 2 (we often never win and start with a lose streak which we will call it for the day) since we often get lucky on our first few bets however if we continue betting, we encounter a losing streak from which if we don't notice it early on, we might end up chasing for our losses and lose all our bankroll. But for some people who will notice the lose streak early on then, they might be able to retain their winnings but that doesn't happen oftentimes as we are caught up with the excitement of our wins.

398  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can you still win with free spins? on: November 20, 2022, 08:32:32 AM
Sites which allow you to spin for free forever will definitely limit the size of the reward you can win on every spin. Like freebitco.in, for example, where we earn few satoshis every hour (few cents of dollar) and more few satoshis by spinning the wheel of fortune once a day.

When we talk about casinos' free spins we talk about spins which can potentially rewards us with decent prizes, like 50$, 100$, 200$... And that is why those spins don't come without requirements for the gambler. In order words, he is forced to risk money to receive free spins or to be able to cashout his prizes.

This sums it all up. The OP should not expect to get rich with free spins. In freebitco.in it can take years to get the maximum prize, which is $200, and the other free spins are given to you for having bet a certain amount, as a reward, as you said.

All this reminds me of "there's no such thing as a free lunch". If you want to make serious money, you better get off your ass to get it, and don't expect it to come to you somehow "for free".
Isn't that the main reason why gambling platforms or casinos put free spins there, not to give them away but rather to make a promotion that may sound good but will require gamblers to work for it to earn it. They are not charitable institutions to give away money rather they are casinos that want to take your money away from you. No one can get rich with those promotions, but they can provide extra earnings for the gambler if they will be able to meet the required bet amount or rules set to it.

Anyways, I think somehow freebitco.in is an exception with their free spins as the rewards are withdrawable without any required wagered amount however the platform itself has a withdrawal limit which should be met to be able to receive your reward. It may take years, but it still depends on the reward you'll be getting. 
399  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How are Online casino's and sports betting platforms coping? on: November 20, 2022, 08:05:46 AM
Let's just hope that people don't think like that of using gambling to make money because it's really hard to do. Most people will only experience defeat rather than win, let alone big wins. Indeed, certain people can really get big wins, but not many. And that is what makes online casino sites increasingly popular on the internet because they can attract more people, especially by using attractive promotions coupled with giving bonuses.
I wouldn't use "hard" as a description for gambling really, more like unknown, neither easy nor hard since you can't exactly figure out whether you're going to win or not in a gamble. Ofc it tends to fall more toward the losing side since the house always wins, but you get my point I think. Unfortunately since it's "unknown", it ends up looking more attractive to most people as well hence why they're going for it.
It's true. We won't know whether we will win or not in gambling and can only keep playing if we are curious about the win. But we must remember that the house will always win, no matter how hard we try, because that is their place of business. If several people can win a lot, it is still smaller than the casino's winnings. Those people know but they try anyway because it will attract many people to keep returning to the casino. Moreover, they get tempted by the casino's promotions, so they return to the casino.
I guess, yes, the house always wins however we can manage our chances of winning against the house which is why gamblers keep on making strategies to minimize the chances of losing however in the long run the house will always have the advantage, especially on games such as Slots and Dice. Also, the uncertainty or the unknown that Wexnident mentioned is more likely to depend on our luck whereas even if we bet on the highest odd that we can win, we can still lose to it.

Well no, I'm not at the moment, but I always keep in mind that you can't be too confident, because certain circumstances in life can make it easier for you to fall into addiction, be it gambling, alcohol or whatever. The fact that I currently use gambling moderately and responsibly is no guarantee that I will always continue to do so, that is why we cannot let our guard down, and in this forum we have seen threads of people who have been gambling for years and at one point lost considerably more than they had anticipated and could afford.

Recurring gambling addiction is quite common to those who have recently experienced a winning streak but ended up losing most of it as this triggers excitement in the gambler
knowing that they have won and may continue winning if they try to gamble continuously. I've seen some people who have a good grasp and control over their gambling activities but end up getting addicted to it once again. If in any case, you have experience getting addicted to gambling or anything such as alcohol, drugs etc, and have lost control of themselves, it's better to call someone for help as it is not easy to stop it immediately.
