3881  Economy / Gambling / Re: Alert: Bc Game scams! (banned for no reason) on: July 31, 2022, 03:45:56 AM
Hello guys, I can understand if people have doubts or think that I made a mistake.

It's true there was one thing, my friend signed up through me. But for a very long time and that was from his home. We've moved together now and then I thought maybe it's because of the same IP now, but it's not all that bad and I offered BC.Game directly that we could also do KYC without any problems.

But as i said before it was only at his home, now we live together. We are also fine to delete his Account now.

And I brought good people to BC, my friend is nothing. irrelevant
If you and your friend logged the two accounts under the same IP, of course at least one of them is going to be banned, especially because it was used as referral of the first account. Knowing this, you can't say the account was banned for no reason. The reason is clear.

Just avoid commiting the same mistake next time, when gathering referrals for your accounts at another casinos.

Extra benefits inside the platform, just like a VIP program for loyal customers, so they increase their business' range to investors, rather than solely gamblers. From all casinos' tokens I prefer FUN, because freebitco.in offers benefits in bitcoin (extra interest rate), so you earn more bitcoins by investing in FUN, while also earning interest over FUN tokens during the period of time you choose locking your funds.
On the other hand, I would avoid venturing myself with tokens which don't offer advantages in bitcoin for holders and investors. Bitcoin must be always the focus in crypto market, doesn't matter how high are the yields paid by altcoins' investments.

I also invested in FUN tokens as the premium membership is interesting and with all the benefits that you get (WOF spins, extra interest on your BTC, cashback, ...), the ROI is rather short (around 1 year; depending on your luck also).
It will really depend on your luck and how many btcs you have invested on the platform. Solely from FUN interest income you can make up to 25% ROI, considering the proportionality between bitcoin and FUN remains stable during that time period.

By relying on luck is dangerous and I must confess I got wrecked by persuing cashback, hiting stop-loss. Attempting to decrease ROI time I ended losing money. So, be careful.

They aren't only fully focused on business, but are also very ambitious on mass control and world supremacy. They don't want to offer a simple service to take fun and accessibility to users in the way it worked on the early days with Messenger, Orkut and so on... Rather, they want to determine what people can say, think and consume, while showing no respect for users' privacy.

Mark Zuckerberg from Facebook is the perfect personification of that.

Oh, the 2000's decade was so good for the internet in general... I don't know if people were just more innocent or if those megalomaniac simply didn't have influence yet.
3884  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is helping to eradicate poverty in poor countries on: July 30, 2022, 03:35:11 AM
The article is just a form of promotion of the author's project, not about bitcoin. Obviously, "eradicating poverty" is only part of a plan to achieve centralized crypto projects in order to attract as many communities as possible. Even though they talk about bitcoin, there is no attempt by any government to use bitcoin in order to eradicate their country's economic problems. In conclusion, bitcoin is not the solution in this case.
Yes, it's just a marketing article posted by Electroneum official website to promote its cryptocurrency. People behind this project promise to reward adopters up to 3$ monthly, althought further informations and details are missing.

For people living in poor areas it would be awesome to earn an extra 3$ every month just by using an app on their mobile devices or adopting a cryptocurrency without any investments, but I guess it's not sustainable for real.

Talking about the role of bitcoin on this matter, it will be effective once more online jobs and opportunities become disponible for everyone, so people can get paid in BTC when working remotely, especially those living in rural areas far from the civilization.
3885  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: which token should I use for my investment ? on: July 30, 2022, 03:15:30 AM
Short term in crypto isn't different from binary options or gambling. Results are going to be random and you have a house edge (or exchange's fees) against you. Everyone investing in crypto must be prepared to wait for the necessary time, doesn't matter how long it's going to be, until they will be able to cashout profit.

For individuals looking for short term returns, the best investment is to purchase raw materials, manufacture them into something and sell right after. It works fine with food and can bring results between 50%-100% profit.

Besides that, I'm not aware of any other short term efficient and safe investments.
3886  Economy / Economics / Re: Huge bounty is placed on Russians politicians crypto info on: July 30, 2022, 03:09:18 AM
The measure proposed by ukrainian government can lead only to moral consequences, what means people transacting with russian addresses will be seen in a negative way and criticized by common reason in the world. Some of them might become ashamed for this reason.

Anyway, it won't prevent them from dealing with russians through cryptocurrency and won't cut russians' income at all. Actually, most people in the world are hardly ashamed for the wrong things they do.

You seem to have a very smart approach on bitcoin adoption for your business. I like you worry about having a professional staff, which is familiar with cryptocurrency and is able to introduce new customers, if necessary and if they wish, to bitcoin and its basics concepts to learn how to deal with.

I also like the fact you offer promotions and addtional benefits for customers who finish their purchases withbitcoin. In my opinion that is an essential feature to be introduced by business' owners when offering bitcoin as payment method.
3888  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If Satoshi is not dead, what is he doing? on: July 29, 2022, 07:58:26 PM
I hope Satoshi is doing well and enjoying his life the best he can. After all he deserves all the best for imagining, creating and delivering his invention to the world. I'm thankful for bitcoin and its existence in our living days.

It is a pleasure to be alive on these times, at the early days and years of bitcoin.
3889  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Outside Magazine Wants the Metaverse to Take a Hike on: July 28, 2022, 11:08:26 PM
That is a very interesting and creative concept which can encourage people to develop healthy habits while making some extra income from it. I'm really concerned about spending more time at virtual environments and less time in the real world.

On the other hand, we must be careful with any services paying us for tracking our steps. It means you are giving your coordinates and routine details in real time to someone you don't know and don't know what they can do with this or to who they can expose it to.

Moreover, payrates must be taken into consideration. I've seen similiar apps, and in my opinion it's fake propaganda what they offer, since people earn too little, being almost impossible to cashout a minimum decent amount of crypto.
3890  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Finding earning estimates for crypto games? on: July 28, 2022, 10:58:19 PM
It's hard to have such data, because crypto games are unstable from the potential earnings point of view. There are different factors which directly influence your income as player: players' traffic or hype, anti-cheats features, support and updates efficiency and frequency...

Potential earnings change all the time. I played MIR4 and when it was launched you could easily earn more than 20$ a day (free to play), but on the next day you could barely make a dollar daily, putting much more effort on the game.
3891  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: American Cancer Society Claims Dogecoin Donations Are Popular !!! on: July 25, 2022, 11:44:45 PM
The third position is a classical position for dogecoin. I remember there was a time, which I have with myself full of nostalgia, when bitcoin was considered the gold (first position), litecoin silver (second position) and dogecoin bronze (third position).

That is good for american cancer society, which is collecting more funds in crypto, they probably wouldn't if allowing to receive only fiat donations.
3892  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Some Tips To Aide Successful Sports Betting. on: July 25, 2022, 10:54:09 PM
Keeping a record is my weakness, I know I need to if I want to be successful because that record would not lie about my percentage of success. Thanks for the tips man, I read this most of the time in the past but actually, it's hard to put it in action.
I believe most gamblers would feel really bad after seeing their history, since they lose more than they earn on long run. Personally I think it's better to stick to a weekly or monthly budget, in case the gambler bets on sports for fun and doesn't practice it for a living. When he loses, it won't be an issue, since there is a limited budget only for that purpose, and when he wins it's going to be a very welcome extra income.
3893  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Stablecoins is a good way to keep and save money or not? on: July 24, 2022, 08:12:15 AM
If you want to adopt stablecoins you must be aware about the risks and take them on your own. Who deals with stablecoins trust the people behind them, or swap money all the time, so they don't risk their money for too long... Personally, living in a third world country where the fiat currency is constantly losing purchasing power (much more than dollar), I prefer to take the risks of a stablecoin than holding my own national currency, because the first might lead me to losses in case of a scam or system failure, but with the second the loss is inevitable and guaranteed.

Nevertheless, nothing compares to bitcoin when choosing how to save money for the future.
3894  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Investing in Casino tokens such as BFG, OWL or TFS on: July 24, 2022, 07:51:28 AM
If we do try to look on overall utility of these gambling-based tokens then i dont really see for it to be needed but rather just an another money-grab by the team.Why the heck they would be creating it out for what? Functionality or usage on the site itself? We do have bitcoin and other top ranking coins listed or option so it is really just understandable that it wont really be getting much attention
for people on making use or buying those coins for the benefit on using it into its dedicated platform.As long it wont really be seen on other places then dont expect for such improvement
or popularity to risen up.Their prices is almost into the floor comparing into its previous ATH and i dont see the point nor being worth for people to make out some investment
with these gambling based tokens/coins.
Extra benefits inside the platform, just like a VIP program for loyal customers, so they increase their business' range to investors, rather than solely gamblers.

3895  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How Profitable are Gambling Bots? on: July 24, 2022, 07:19:45 AM
By using the bots, there will be no fun as you will not be gambling. Its the bot who will gamble on your behalf and you will earn/lose money.

Obviously, that's why the user used the bot to gamble the money on their behalf.

What's the connection between it on the fun part?

If it's winning or losing in the end, then that's the question and we don't know the result at the end. Users considering using bots not actually to make income out of it but just to follow a certain algorithm that the users want to apply to that game.

Gambling has a big connection to the fun part too. There are gamblers who gamble to have fun and entertainment. Gaining money from gambling is a secondary thing for them.
I am referring to those types of people as they will never prefer to use bots and will always prefer to play themselves and have fun  Wink
Some gamblers also have fun using bots. That is because bots help gamblers testing complex strategies which involve more elaborated calculations to increase bet size or winning percentage on loss, then return to base bet after a determined length of loss streak or winning streak... The fun isn't always on the profit or on the excitement of clicking the roll button, but also on the possibilities of trying something new and reaching to different results. It's like challeging the own mind in search for the most efficient and cost benefit method.
3896  Economy / Economics / Re: You don't earn money only from others, but also when you avoid spending your own on: July 24, 2022, 05:53:24 AM
Taking out unnecessary expenses is definitely good, but looking for additional income streams is definitely the way to go. Very early on I stopped eating out frequently because I couldn't afford it, but I love eating out so much that I forced myself to look for more income streams to be able to afford it. Life is short! Hustle hard to be able to afford the things you enjoy.
I love eating out too, and someday I would like to do this more often, but first I think I must try building up the finances, so futurely I won't have to worry if I'm spending too much on this.

However, as you said, life is short, so we must do the best as possible with the time that is given us.

Eating out and shopping for unnecessary things becomes normal when they get used to it. Its just like us drinking beers every night when we know already how it feels even during out teen days. Old habit die hard I guess.

Its why I like reading success stories of people in the worse situation in life but had stand the test of time with success. There are many of these poor men disliked by their in-laws because they were not rich at all but prove to be successful in saving and investing.
Oh, talking about beers and drinks you reminded me another example: to drink at home vs. to drink at the pub. Some people go to the pub every night after the duty and pay much more for the same bottle of beer they could purchase at supermarket to drink at home. I see so many doing this where I live and then I have a clue of one of the reasons why they live in precarious conditions...
3897  Economy / Gambling / Re: Freebitco.in - FUN Token Investment Experiment on: July 24, 2022, 05:29:41 AM
If you want some interesting info about the spins, here's my 1009 saved up spins
It gives you an average of 38,75 satoshis per spin (adding btc and RPs prizes together, while ignoring lottery tickets).

Your results are slightly above my first month's results, since my average was 33,95 satoshis per spin.

Thanks for sharing.
3898  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If There's No Casino Signature Will The Gambling Board Still Be The Same on: July 24, 2022, 04:29:45 AM
Probably it would remain as one of the most actives boards of the forum. For some reason crypto enthusiasts are also gambling enthusiasts and this has already become a traditional and popular board for gambling discussions even for non-forum members. I say that, because when I search for something related to gambling on google, some of the first suggestions redirect the reader to bitcointalk forum gambling's threads.

Moreover, I see gamblers stay active here looking for news regards casinos, so they don't miss any flash promotions and welcome bonuses in case of brand new casinos launching recently.
3899  Economy / Economics / You don't earn money only from others, but also when you avoid spending your own on: July 24, 2022, 04:12:33 AM
Usually people get anxious and frenetic for new sources of income, to find new jobs, so they can maximize their patrimony as soon as possible, but many of them forget you don't accumulate wealth only when receiving money or being paid by others for a work. We can also decrease our expenses and stop third-partying tasks we can do ourselves, so at the end of a monthly cycle we will have earned more money to invest and make it grow overtime.

People create so many worthless fixed expenses nowadays. It can be monthly subscriptions of services they barely use, eating out too often, purchasing superfluous clothes, accessories and items in general just for vanity towards the society. Sometimes people have all the tools they need on their hands to finish a solid building, however, since they don't know how to use them properly, it will look like they constantly need more and more tools indefinitely.
3900  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling in Moderation, Pros can out weigh its Cons in Financial and Health? on: July 22, 2022, 10:02:54 PM
In my opinion, besides the benefits mentioned on this thread, the biggest and most important learnship you can take from gambling is to recognize and accept your limitations, to be humble and to understand you can't win at all costs. And if you don't accept this fact, you are going to reach deeper and deeper in a dark pit of losses and failure until you finally accept that. There is no other path to trail or shortcuts in gambling. It's not easy to learn this lesson in life, but gambling has this capacity and is able to teach this to everyone who venture into betting activity thinking they are playing by their own rules, rather than the casinos' rules, which are in fact insurmountable.
