I hope they would consider this option I hope they could read our concerns.
Well, I believe that thing doesn't really matter much. i mean, the current currencies that Adkinsbet is currently have is fine. But personally I prefer my deposits, like bitcoin to be converted into USD when it reached my balance on gambling site.
That way, I won't be needing to worry about the votality of bitcoin which can turn the value of my balance lower or higher in value in terms of USD.
That is why I prefer it much to be in a fiat and stable value like USD.
Then, live to that choice.

Some are also preferred to keep their money in Bitcoin while the others converted to USDT. This is not a problem as nobody is forcing us/you to make a choice but all are base on our preferences and thinking. I'll choose BTC because it was more applicable in our country and easier for me to convert it to our local currency if I want.

As I used Bitcoin very often, that is the mean reason also I'd choose to keep that way. I don't mind its volatility.

Signature promotion makes the site more visible to the crypto space and we know that due to market competition, it was their first choice to make a rally on the forum since we are already exposed to crypto. By simply having this thread (aside from what@Mitchell has), will help crypto gamblers to look at what other sites are offering the same features.
3903  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: People still don't know about Bitcoin on: November 30, 2020, 01:12:13 PM
There are many people who still don't know about bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies. I don't know about others I am talking about my country and about my society. Whenever I ask from people about or talk about the Bitcoin. They ask what is this?

How much there is who face this problem?
We can think that we are already in huge adoption but still, the majority haven't known yet about Bitcoin. Of, if even they heard the word Bitcoin as it was been talked about online but never know what is its role in our lives today. Total blindness still we saw around and we can't deny that because even on my family members never know as well. And the reason why the majority still not know about Bitcoin/crypto is that because many were also afraid to try due to doubts or nobody is telling them either.
3904  Economy / Economics / Re: Will Crypto live forever or die? on: November 29, 2020, 11:30:05 PM
Crypto would live, it's impossible to take down a decentralized system, crypto is successful because of us, so it's necessary that we will all be shut down in order for crypto to die. Crypto or bitcoin will stay as long as there are people using it, and that is regardless of its value because in the first place, crypto's real purpose is just a payment system which promotes a decentralized one.
It won't and I see sustainable market gains more in the future when compared today. The rising number of crypto users especially for Bitcoin simply means that people are now convinced that this is very useful to the community, may many never appreciate it now but probably could open up their minds in the next days.

With an exemplary performance that crypto had despite scams and fraud also rises but it keeps on moving high and that is not to wonder why because more people are still believing crypto that could bring them an opportunity to make money.
3905  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: what successfull trading tips have worked with you so far ? on: November 29, 2020, 10:52:38 PM
I'm not a full-time trader but what strategy I usually use is to focus on a single coin and just keep calm. Emotion is harmful to us if we get affected by it. many say it was the common reason for our failure and they are right, this drives us to think badly and out from our goal, and even think about quitting. Aside from those things I've mentioned above, it gonna be best to properly observe the market movement, it is a big help to when we make a buy or sell.
3906  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: PayPal is sending the wrong message on: November 29, 2020, 10:30:22 PM
That is the end of PayPal's hypes. They are no longer can be trusted as they trick innocent people into thinking that they can make a profit from buying Bitcoin at PayPal but it is very unfortunate that only PayPal had taking advantage and trap their deposit.

Now, your friend has no choice but to spend it all using this foolish app. I'm not sure if there is a note notifying us that we can't withdraw our Bitcoin or even make a trade just have only used it to buy stuff connected to them. If that happens, it was the mistake of your friend (sorry because I'd never try to buy Bitcoin from them nor I want to).
3907  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Argentina raises Gambling tax on: November 29, 2020, 01:56:00 PM
Who does not need money in the present time, we are all affected with the pandemic, even the richest country have struggled economically. Argentina is just raising their taxes on casinos, but they are already allow them to operate so they already know that gambling taxes is a big source for tax income and they also know that even if they will raised the tax, it will not affect the industry a lot compared to other industries.

This is not the time to raise taxes, unless you want the businesses to go bankrupt. Casinos and other businesses have seen a disproportionate decline in their revenues. Many of the small and medium sized casinos have closed down, unable to pay the wages to their employees. At this time, it is ironic that the government is going ahead with a tax increase. Sometimes I think that these Latin American politicians use some organ other than brain to make the decisions.
Very unfortunate how the government isn't looking at those instances instead of focusing on milking from gambling instituitons. I'm not sure if they are desperate to think that way or the purpose to stop people from gambling.
I understand that they have a reason for asking for taxes but that was not favorable in today's situation. Though gambling institutions won't agree but that was already been exercised and they are obliged to pay otherwise, they can no longer operate.
3908  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Facebook Libra finally launching? on: November 28, 2020, 11:50:33 PM
https://cointelegraph.com/news/facebook-s-libra-to-reportedly-launch-in-january-2021-as-usd-stablecoin

"Following more than a year of scrutiny from global financial regulators, Libra will launch in a form of a United States dollar-backed digital currency, the Financial Times reported on Nov. 27"

I hope it does finally get regulated & implemented into FB. It’ll get average joe interested in crypto which will be good for us. It will lead more people to bitcoin & altcoins.
That is their issue before and I think that they already resolve it and permits them to launch their project. I also hope that people are still excited to participate so they will succeed otherwise, failure has to be their ends.

Anyway, let us see and wait for the outcome. We can't tell yet that it will proportionally give a huge influence on the market trend (which likely we think) until such time that it was proven. FB is known to almost everyone but that was different from the Libra coin where not all FB users are also crypto lovers/adopters.
3909  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 💰 Summer Tokyo 2020 💰 Discussion and bet thread 💰 Summer Game 💰 Postponed 21 on: November 28, 2020, 11:09:04 PM
We are 8 months into the pandemic and there is no much change as some of the countries are facing the second wave of virus attack and the possibility of getting a vaccine by the time of the Olympics might be a real possibility but if that is not the case what happens, will they extend the Olympics further because it is not fair for Japan as they have spent billions and how they will compensate that.

You are still noticing any improvement? Vaccines from Moderna and Pfizer have completed their Phase 3 trials with up to 95% efficiency. Now it is only a question of mass production. Even the Sputnik V vaccine of Russia have shown 92% efficiency during the Phase III trials. The only bad news is from the vaccine being produced by AstraZeneca/Oxford, which has shown less than 70% efficiency.
It takes time to see the results, they'll be saying 92%, 70% efficiency, how was that reliable if it has been applied to different people and different health conditions?

Soon this pandemic will stop with or without a vaccine, it can't be forever and the said Summer Game will reschedule. There is no final confirmation about the schedule as travels and huge gatherings are still forbidden but I was looking for a huge change next year in regards to the pandemic trend.
3910  Economy / Speculation / Re: ATH will be in 2021! on: November 28, 2020, 10:42:30 PM
So many speculations arise, Bullrun this year, Bullrun next year? No, we can't get assurance for that because no one had control of the Bitcoin price trend. As long as the market remains volatile, we can simply say that assurance but just only for positive hopes. Besides, Bitcoin is still in the bullish season, the momentum still in a good run, and anytime, might be ATH appears again.

All the coming sentiment is always surprising, we can certainly point out what will happen next either by dumping or pumping, all we need is to keep positive despite some declines.
3911  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Another institutional investment firm is getting involved in bitcoin. on: November 28, 2020, 10:11:36 PM
Well, let's welcome them and let them invest in Bitcoin. We are into expecting massive adoption therefore to see rich people, the institutional group had likely to see coming and buying cryptos now. This never makes the supply of Bitcoin turns into scarcity for the reason that not Bitcoin is not controlled by a single person, some do selling while others also buying, that is the life cycle in Bitcoin.
3912  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Golovkin vs. Szeremeta IBF Middleweight Title on: November 28, 2020, 09:37:36 AM
I read that Oscar de la Hoya is in training and preparing for a comeback fight. He is saying that he wants to fight GGG because it will be an easy fight for him. I think it is actually the opposite. GGG could seriously hurt him. His promotional company isn't doing too well with Canelo leaving them but facing a dangerous opponent because you're losing a lot of money is just crazy.

Nah, Oscar is delusional, he also said that when he fought Manny Pacquaio, he doesn't have it anymore, so he should stop bull shitting the boxing fans of a making comeback and with one of the most dangerous fighter in GGG.

He could have been affected by the Canelo departure, but I don't think he can salvage his company by making a comeback. He still has Ryan Garcia to build around his Golden Boy, unless Garcia wanted to be out as well (although he has hint before in his social media).
Oscar de la Hoya has been so popular before but after he loses against Manny, it's over. And now he wanted to fight GGG, not only delusional but this is just a hyping scheme, and it all just about money. What he can be offered to GGG for him to win? He has no guts at this time and he is already old enough @47 years old, better for him to retire (actually he's out already) and remains his title as a "Pretty Boy".
3913  Economy / Gambling / Re: Casinos Withdrawal Fees Rise (!?)|| November 2020 on: November 27, 2020, 11:20:46 PM
But if you are a gambler, fees will really matter and choosing those who can offer a small one could be the best idea. I'd never see there is another reason the cause of this changes as it is eventually a practice before.What casinos did is just to get some more profit coming from fees and they'll also taking the advantage while Bitcoin is in hype.
The reason you will hear from casino who increased their withdrawal fees is that some users are taking advantage of the lower fees and using the casino as a wallet to hold your funds and then withdraw without even playing anything and i recently heard the same from Stake management that the reason for the fee hike is to avoid users like that and not to squeeze petty profit as some of the gambling sites are providing much bigger freebies and giveaways.
Only a few of them using that and just only those people who are doing illegal but I'd never think that normal/professional gamblers will do that. But I don't see this as a reason that it makes the price increase, this is just a normal scenario since before and when the price of bitcoin surge high, fees also moving high.
If we could find gambling sites that never ask for fees, that much better but just be sure that your funds are safe otherwise, it all be gone out of your control or at worse if they are asking KYC then because of suspicious transactions.
3914  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Bitcoin on high demand Africa nigeria and Malaysia on: November 26, 2020, 11:24:10 PM
we have people sending 2k back home to africa and asia
they want
BTC transaction because it is cheaper than western union and faster than venmo. You don't pay money to convert to USD then convert USD to target currency.

simply put:
most of the time the person receives BTC actually gained instead of lost money due to greedy authorities.
I feel those fees are relatively high when sending fiat money to any country. A choice of Bitcoin makes the transfer easily and it saves cost for fees, and the good thing is that you don't need to spend a lot of time just to send it and even to receive from the bank or to any deposit/receiving agencies.

If the use of Bitcoin permits to my place, I'm also prepared to have this overstable coin USD, and I'll be taking those advantages.
Asian countries are adopting Bitcoin and that it seems preparable for them to have Bitcoin and traditional currency.
3915  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Best altcoin to buy now on discount? on: November 26, 2020, 10:51:58 PM
Hi guys, what is a good altcoin to buy now that we are having a correction? Seems like a good discount.
Go and choose Ethereum. But if you are also looking for more altcoins, then you'll have to consider among the top 10 altcoins in the market except for XRP and any centralized altcoins. But then, you should still be careful and I suggest to choose coins that aren't yet in the highs but to put consideration into coins that are already on the downtrend. But there is one you need to think about, don't get disappointed if you can make money easily. If you are buying today, can't expect that it makes profit right after because certainly it take times.
3916  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Follow a trading process. on: November 26, 2020, 02:31:35 PM
You'll be going nowhere if you don't stick to the process, that is what I see and a reason why a few traders failed.
Having a new idea or trading strategies are just a trial and error, it can be working or possibly not. It is not a bad idea to have those things but if we are comfortable enough with the usual and common strategies we use, I think this is not necessary.

No way to think that trading is an easy job, can be soon but we need first to struggle and face the consequences of failure before we succeed.
3917  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will the government accept it? on: November 26, 2020, 01:45:18 PM
I couldn't think that it permits everything and the government will change their behavior.
1. They can't stop the banking sector to continue their business because they are also contributing a lot to our economy

2. Taxes has been executed a long time ago and the fact that it was also governed by the law, everyone has been entitled to pay their taxes unless they belong to exemptions.

3. Corruption? We all know that word already. It simply we can't eliminate those devil acts as it was been practiced and passed by from generation to generation.
3918  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: You can't always hit the right target on: November 25, 2020, 10:55:08 PM
That is something terrible. Yeah, it is really hard to find good bounties and profitable one, it is just like chasing our luck on them.
I understand that bounty hunters feel that ( and I feel it also as being a hunter before) but despite this challenge still a lot of members here doing it since they know also that not all of them are worthless, they can find better soon.

As the market getting bigger and continue to spread globally the more projects had come out. Not all of them are truly reliable or even promising that makes a reason that it is getting harder and harder to find the right target.
3919  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Poker Site Buys $100 Million of Bitcoin Every Month to Pay Players in BTC on: November 25, 2020, 10:33:22 PM
They are anticipating the future huge market demand, in fact, they started to feel it this time since most of their players are asking for it. I could think also that the other sites respond to the current market demand and I see this away to a massive adoption with crypto with the help of the pandemic and as well as the increased numbers of gambling sites.

If this will continue, that seems possible to see that Bitcoin price will keep on the higher position than seeing it dumps deep. probably one factor that we are almost reaching back to $20k.
3920  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What will happen to Bitcoin after making new ATH? on: November 24, 2020, 11:07:40 PM
Correction is what we mostly saw after if we consider that past outcomes, well, it won't be sure but most likely it is still the same. That is why I don't want to encourage people to buy and rush to Bitcoin today but rather to wait a little bit.

Anyway, we are still speculating what could be the next step after this bullish trend. Definitely, we are not sure but at least we are anticipating the market for possible dumps as that will be the problem if we are investing this time.
