Do you think it's safe to reopen land-based gaming knowing that the cases are still increasing by hundreds every day?
If proper safety measures are seriously conducted, then I think it lowers the risk. However, it's not 100% safe.
Safety is not the main concern with this "new normal" stuff since people will be safest if they remain at home. But, the economy must recover so people can earn money and meet their daily needs. It's inevitable after the shutdown failed to eradicate the virus since so many workers depend on the casino/tourism to make a living.

Initial Model Offering (IMO) has been discussed here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5197057.0
But perhaps OP talks about different IMO?! Generally, it's better than ICO/IEO in terms of keeping the fund safe and distribute it periodically instead of single lump sum.
But that's about it, proper due diligence is a must.

Agree to this! Do you guys think that having an advertising campaign specifically here in bitcointalk can really boost the exposure of these newly created gambling site or casino? Just curious though  Huh
Yes, to a certain extent. I mean users here seem already have their own favorite crypto gambling sites, so if the new sites cannot offer something truly new/different or cannot offer substantial discounts/bonuses, then existing users will know the sites but won't bother to try it (assumed bitcointalk user growth is 0).

In another scenario, more people join bitcointalk -> more users -> more advertisement exposure.



Low HE in crypto casinos overall should be the main selling point though other than the probably fair one.

Did the world trust CCP more than the US? Nope, and never, as long as CCP still rules China.
Can FIAT replace cryptocurrency? Nope, it's different.

Okay, I'll bookmark this thread and wait for the new challenge!
By the way, Google form sounds excellent.

Total earned merits by top 20 merit earners: 595288

The top 20 merit earners have earned 87.8% of total earned merits on the forum.
Top-20 or top 20% mate?
Is it because the top 20% created 80% of posts? Since it's usually related to the work done and post count is one of the easiest metrics available.
3948  Economy / Economics / Re: India's new financial package is a national laughing stock - what do you think? on: June 02, 2020, 08:54:48 AM
The MoF must be having a terrible headache at the moment lol. I think whatever they can do is limited since we are dealing with a severe economic shutdown. I have this idea about letting people free as before, but instead of giving incentives to boost the demand, the money can be used to guarantee 100% medical treatment if someone becomes infected. So get out and work! Don't be afraid! And even if you get sick because of it, we will give you free treatment.
3949  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Slots 101: Basics, Strategies, and Discussion (with poll) on: June 02, 2020, 08:34:05 AM
I am not already good at strategy. But at least it's a resource to help you decide which game I can win.
Actually, my thread is about the gameplay, not about the "earn money online" stuff since popular mainstream slots game are "centralized," have high HE, and no way you can verify the fairness. However, if you "won't cry if you lose your gambling budget," then you can taste these games.

Even better, if someone can deploy provably fair slots that have much fun and animations, there are many marvelous slots listed on OP that they can "copy."
3950  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Life soundtrack for Gamblers? on: June 02, 2020, 08:12:46 AM
There are lots of cheap license music if you search "royalty-free music" on Google. Alternatively, you could also create loops of house music. For me, I'd just pick music that I like and match with the video since customer's preference differs widely about it.
3951  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online casino searches at "all time high" during lockdown on: June 02, 2020, 07:37:50 AM
Yea, but they will likely get search results of mainstream casinos, and not the provably fair one. Then they will get raped with "centralized" high HE games.
Perhaps at the moment, casino operators should boost the campaign about provably fair to the mainstream people.

@Cnut237

In the same article you propose:
Quote
There are, however, potentially major challenges for anyone wanting to mine such an asteroid. How do you get it back to Earth through the atmosphere and land it without destroying the planet? Who do you sell it to in space if you can’t get it back to Earth?
Source: https://physicsworld.com/a/the-asteroid-trillionaires/

Going there and then mine all the metals is one issue, and then transport it to the earth is another issue. So much risk involved there hence I'm not sure if private companies can bear all those risks.

I've heard some compelling arguments about Columbus was funded by the government i.e., The Kingdom of Spain, therefore this kind of project might (only) be possible with the government's money.
3953  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: ICO without crypto currencies on: June 01, 2020, 06:55:09 AM
Id like to ask what are the requirements of registering an ICO?
It depends on your jurisdiction, but IMO you won't need ICO for your project.

Let's say my project won't produce any crypto currency, but needs some voluntarily developers instead of investors who whould be interested in using the created platform for themselves instead of getting any money profit.
It's basically an open-source project.

If it's possible will it be okay to make the number of tokens equivalent to the number of developers participating in the project's development and to give one token to one developer?
Yes, but that is not needed. The token will be worthless just like karma, merit, etc.
If the project can be useful then the devs will be benefit from it anyway, it adds good experience on their resume.

And will such an ICO protect the project's idea of being stoled and used by other people or there's no such a protection and it will be necessary to get some kind of patent?
MIT License? Anyway, before you continue, you should ask yourself if this project will focus on earning profits (commercial) or not.
3954  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why has Bcash failed at becoming digital cash? on: June 01, 2020, 06:28:54 AM
But BCH ranked 2nd from the same article you propose, so "nobody" is an exaggeration. I think it's more about the user base since BTC still ranked 1% with over 95% tx (according to the same article). Without onboarding the mainstream people, the market share won't change much since we already have our own favorite coin(s).
3955  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: My Bitcointalk on: June 01, 2020, 06:19:26 AM
The criticism must be passed by a newbie or anyone and with any rank. Because criticism from others is very important to make us aware and become even better in the future.
Thumbs up!
It doesn't matter what rank, age, or social status. Anyone or any idea can be criticized. The problem is how you tell/phrase it so that the meaning can be appropriately delivered.
In the real world, constructive criticism is always valued.
3956  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Vietnam bursts an illegal casino who used to handle bets worth $3 billions on: June 01, 2020, 06:10:19 AM
Was there anything preventing the guy from registering his casino?
Because it's illegal in Vietnam and you can not run Casino legally. Same here in my local and last year, so called Casino Emperor Somrat was busted for that.
Yep, from various sources, gambling (generally) illegal there.
It doesn't make sense when they have so many revenues and didn't bother to get some license. The reason is simple, it's illegal.

3958  Economy / Economics / Re: Economic Impact Of Commercial Space Exploration on: May 31, 2020, 05:05:12 PM
It's nice to see how humans already capable of such things. However, I still think the project is not promising from an economic point of view. I mean, if it's about tourism, even if we ignore the price, I don't think people will like the experience since they cannot wear flip-flops and drink coconut there. They are more likely to get more stress than relief.

If it's about exploring and then gathering valuable metals, there are many unexplored places on earth. It will still be more feasible to dig here if you calculate the costs.
3959  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Analyst: "Covid-19 Could Spur More States to Legalize Online Casino" on: May 31, 2020, 04:48:18 PM
Well, as predicted, the government desperately needs money in this situation. As I said, sports bets seem to be the focus, so we can expect more states will legalize it. Online casinos, however, still in a gray area because it will cause lots of gambling problems if they are not careful. Games like slots, casino hold 'em, blackjack, etc., are highly addicting.
3960  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Meme-worthy slots winning reactions (with poll) on: May 30, 2020, 06:15:34 PM
^lol yeah I like videos that still "pure" as well just like the girl.
If you notice, all streamers on OP now become famous. I mean, look at what JugiPelaa. His current setup is expensive.
Anyway, look what I found:


Bonus:

This guy seems to have lots of LOL potential. Perhaps Roo*** should sponsor this guy to ease his pain Grin
I told you here that "buying feature" is risky, so better be prepare.

Win or lose, we love the reactions, since we've been there.
