I'm not saying gambling is bad I'm saying no one should gamble because if you gamble you can lose everything your whole life income can go there that's why you trade bitcoins you light your future and gamble happy happy  Never get addicted to it and try to stay away from it.

Investing in Bitcoin isn't gambling, that's why it's recommended by those that have been in the industry before us because when you invest in Bitcoin, you can be sure of making profits now or in the future but investing in other cryptocurency can't assure you of profit as they can stop been hyped and they become worthless while you lose all the money you invested into them. Bitcoin is the best cryptocurrency to invest into and you can buy Bitcoin instead of gambling.

But gambling isn't totally bad, if you want to do it try to avoid getting addicted because that's what makes gambling bad as it makes you to keep playing it even when you're losing. Gambling has made a lot of individual to lose everything they had but you can avoid same results.
Bitcoin benefits are undeniable. Only ignorance agree that bitcoin is gamble. Thanks to all the bitcoiners who understand the market and see the potential for growth, not bitcoin is more and more valuable. But please, we all know that other crypto could bring us more

Diversity is always important. Always. Other cryptocurrencies, if they can keep their promises, can elevate the blokcchain ecosystem. They do, indeed, bring a huge return. And of course they come with more risk. So, its crucial to proceed with caution and be well-informed, but keep an open mind towards other possibilities. The financial world is expanding day by day. We cant just sit there and wait for things to happen to us

I totally get your worries about crypto security? Totally get it. Its real, the fear. People, me too, are on edge. Scams? Hacks? Big, real threats. Just like that Houbi mess.

KYC? Its doing something, at least. Cutting down the bad stuff. But yeah, gotta jack up that security. Make it strong, unbreakable. People want to feel safe, right? If they do, boom! Everyone’s gonna want in. Cant just be tech-smart, gotta be safe-smart too.

KYC might be a pain, sure. But hey, its moving towards safer grounds. Time to shout out for tougher exchange security. No more waiting. No more Houbi-like wake-up calls. Time to move, and move now. For the sake of our assets, our peace. We need it, bad.

For Alts market hype is Bitcoin price. See top Alts like Ethereum, there is not a single instance where we saw Ethereum going up despite the fact Bitcoin is down. To me there is no existence of crypto market without Bitcoin and that's why I think there is no point in diversifying your crypto portfolio. The diversification may work well in other trading markets like stock or forex but not here. I have this opinion after investing and losing heavily in alts. Just my few Satoshis. 

Diversification is necessary because sometimes people put money in new coins which offers a beneficial platform for them to get better revenue. We know that every other coin is totally dependent on bitcoin but we also know that how expensive bitcoin is.

Only few individuals are able and skilled to purchase bitcoin but most of the individuals living here are not moneyed enough to purchase bitcoin therefore when they hear about halving so they purchase multiple other coins as they know that halving absolutely will change the value of such coins in that direction in which bitcoin moves.

diversification in other field is also full of advantages like if a person is a part of business or job and at a same time continue his bitcoin investment then there will be a greater chance of successful diversification as if one market is down other will be up to offer you desirable outcomes.
Diversification is vital, indeed. But lets be clear here. Not all diversifications gives you. Some lead to a diversified portfolio of losses (lol). Yes, putting money in different coins could increase the opportunity. But lets not forget, other coins, despite their low price, they indeed riskier than bitcoin

Bitcoin's price is steep. However, its the most well-known, the one that most altcoins try to mimic the price. You mentioned halving and buying multiple other coins. Its a strategy, sure. But remember, halving events are already priced in, and the market reacts in its unpredictable ways.

Yes, having different income streams is beneficial. Bitcoin investment alongside a business or job? A good play. But diversification is not just about scattering funds. Its about smartly allocating them, understanding each asset's dynamics, and staying vigilant in the constantly shifting financial world.
3944  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Knowledge vs hodlings on: September 27, 2023, 02:04:48 PM
Those two words, if you connect them to the Bitcoin industry, are, for me, equally important. Because if you have something like that, eventually there will be a change in your life if you have Bitcoin holdings and knowledge. Obviously, you wouldn't go out of your way to own Bitcoin if you didn't find anything wrong with it.

What if you have no knowledge but buy Bitcoin and hold it long-term? Of course, at this point, while you are waiting for the right time to sell here, it is possible to learn what Bitcoin actually has and why it has become attractive to the majority of wealthy investors around the world. So, for me, if you don't have knowledge about holdings, you can make a mistake in what you choose to hold. But if you go with knowledge, for sure you won't make a mistake that you want to hold for the future.

That's right, because knowledge without practice does not make sense. It's just a lot of theory and facts that you know, but what profit is there from them if they are not applied in any way. You can know at least all the facts of cryptocurrencies and have excellent technical analysis, but what is the point of this without investment?

But the presence of holdings but the lack of knowledge is even worse. Such an investment will lead to the fact that the trader will invest without understanding, and falling into the scam.
After that, such a bad investment will depreciate, and as a result, the deposit will be zero.

In general, one without the other cannot have profit and meaning in general.
Knowledge without action? Thats just a brain full of facts, not getting us anywhere, right? But get this. Without any knowledge, thats a crash waiting to happen to our money. Imagine having a stash of Bitcoin and zero know-how - you are the best victim for anyone, including hackers, exchanges, etc. And it is a sad end

Now, mixing both, thats where the magic happens. Knowing the ropes and taking the plunge – thats how we roll, and thats how we grow. With each transaction, we learn, we adapt, and we get better, aiming for that sweet spot where knowledge meets action in a perfect blend.

How to find and know exactly who are good businessman to pursue and learn from? If he had found a good teacher, he wouldn't have come up here to ask us. In my opinion, there are no experts or talented traders who claim to be talented. Talented people often do not appear in public and quietly make money in the market, while only scammers often go on social networks claiming to be experts. Therefore, the best thing is that if anyone wants to participate in the market, especially trading, they should research and learn everything themselves. Everything is available on the internet, don't try to find experts because there are no experts in the market.

I think there are many experienced and expert people whose advice we can trade well. it's better to ask different people's opinion than to ask or know one businessman.There are many talented traders who share their experience with people through their platform,and people are benefiting from their useful tips and trading methods.Doing research and learning by yourself is a good thing, but we have to rely on some trader,because at the beginning of every work, you need the support of someone.

Who informs you about the rules and regulations of the beginning of this work.Explain about the benefits and risks in it.If according to your opinion everything is available on the internet, then the content available on the internet is also published by an expert, so the existence of experts cannot be denied.Most of the experts publish the extracts obtained from their experiences on the Internet, from which new people will always benefit.
Seeking advice from experts and pro traders is quite an idea. Yes, nothing can compare with how we learn from others.

Though, while these opinions and advice can help us, remember that every market is unpredictable (stocks, gold, bitcoin, real estate, etc). Even the most experienced traders sometimes become blind. So you should have a solid understanding of market trends, analytics, and risk management strategy. There are many things to improve ourselves.

Every trader has a unique style, and what works seamlessly for one might not work as smoothly for another. So, digest that expert advice, but let it marinate with your own research and understanding.

The price does seem stable around $26,026, I dont think its time to break out the champagne just yet. I've seen patterns like these and they are not good at all

The resistance at $26,350 and $26,500 might just be a stone wall for now, but massive sell  can break it any moment. If it drops to $25,400 or more, $25,000, its going to be a tough pill to swallow for many. Its crucial to stay vigilant and keep those eyes peeled on the market pulse
3947  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin kwoledge is not complete without bitcoin investment on: September 27, 2023, 01:09:28 PM
I don't know why people feel that knowing only the theory of bitcoin is ok, without investing. Before theory will be written, there must be a practical to prove that is it true and accepted by scientist after which, other scientist must have followed the whole process with observation and conclusion. It is the same with bitcoin, the knowledge that will have about bitcoin was put into practices first before it was written for us to know. If Satoshi and his group, only have the knowledge and didn't practice it for them to have a conclusion on how bitcoin works, we wouldn't be here passing bitcoin knowledge to people and learning.

With all these stated above, anyone without bitcoin investment and claims that he has the knowledge is only like a clock without the minute and hour hand, because you are just there with your knowledge, and you don't know the reality of what is in your head. Bitcoin investment will expand your knowledge on bitcoin and will help you to towards being successful in your bitcoin journey. A man with the knowledge of bitcoin is an ordinary person, but a man that has the knowledge and investment is a bitcoiner, because he says things from experience. Nobody can have all the knowledge of bitcoin in this world, but with the little one that you have, it is enough for you to invest and benefit from what you know. There is much knowledge to gain when you have the experience but little knowledge when you know only the theory.
I agree with you that real-world experience is crucial for Bitcoin. The theoretical understanding, however, should be respected, imo. Should people who cant afford Bitcoin be excluded from the conversation? As you say, investment is necessary for complete knowledge, but it must also be accessible to everyone.

Theory lays the foundation for practice. Without theory, we're walking blind, and thats where the risk grows. Now, I do believe that real-world experience with Bitcoin investment can provide insights that cant be obtained from textbooks. So, your point about a man with knowledge and investment being a "bitcoiner" does mean something. Its an intriguing viewpoint that investment complements knowledge
3948  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What will you do if your country did not legalize cryptocurrency? on: September 27, 2023, 12:50:09 PM
Bitcoin is a very useful thing to many people. It has provided very good opportunities, job opportunity, trading opportunity and lots more for many people to earn money for their essentials of life. Bitcoin halving is fast approaching, giving many people hope of investment, and making reasonable profit at the end. Yet in some countries it is completely illegal. What will you do if you are a fan of bitcoin but your country did not legalize cryptocurrency?

If you count the number of countries that have banned Bitcoin and crypto, they are only a few of them as compared to the number of other countries where it is been recognized, legal and alegal by status, and the fact that these minor countries ban it doesn't stop crypto from functioning, it has always grown without them and will continue to do and besides, there are many people who still do it despite the ban on the legality but not having that freedom to exercise pose some risk on them.

My opinion is this, I don't have the numbers of people that trade crypto and the level of job opportunity outreach that crypto has created but I can say for sure that less than half of people in crypto do trading, more often than not, they prefer to hold it than been traded due to the volatility, I still think people care less of what the status say about bitcoin and other coins, they will buy and hold and protect their seed phrase and private keys without the need to show the public they hold bitcoin, is as simple as that. If their investment matures, they can sell using P2P either through a centralized platform or a decentralized one without having to fear the consequences.
Bans on Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies may exist in some countries, but they pale in comparison to the widespread acceptance. It would be like attempting to stop the tide with a broom. Blockchain technology's decentralised design works against the centralization of power.

Now, you're right about the debate between trading and holding. The "hodl" culture has taken off in the crypto community. People are less prone to short-term trading now that they see the long-term possibilities. Consider the mindset of the first Bitcoin users; they werent interested in making a quick buck, but in building a decentralised monetary system. Many people prefer P2P exchanges and choose to keep their holdings secret, which further increases the system's security and anonymity.
3949  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: interesting article: Pay-to-use blockchains will never achieve mass adoption on: September 27, 2023, 12:31:19 PM
The article is well-written. I completely agree with the ideas about the necessity of free, easy-to-use, and recognisable blockchains. The focus being placed on usability and real-world applications rather than merely tech speak and lofty ideals is welcome.

I might add that mass adoption is heavily influenced by the component of "trust". Having used Google and Facebook for years without having to pay for them directly, the majority of people have a great deal of trust in these companies. Around the world, the indirect monetization strategy is well-known and, to some extent, acceptable. If blockchains are to get a comparable level of widespread adoption, they need to establish trust while guaranteeing user-friendliness and no upfront costs. Without getting bogged down in the expenses and technicalities that turn off a lot of people, we should concentrate on showing the general public the real advantages of blockchain technology. How would you feel about adding more initiatives to educate and raise awareness in order to encourage the adoption of blockchain technology?
3950  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Could the rise and popularity of cryptocurrencies be a vivid example? on: September 26, 2023, 04:26:33 PM
Im interested in your basic Bitcoin inflation hedging thesis. Bitcoin's regulated supply sets it apart from fiat currencies, which may be issued indefinitely and cause inflation.

Its value depends on more than Bitcoin's finite supply. Demand, like weather, is huge and unpredictable. By rising in value, it may defend against inflation, but what about when it plummets? Never disregard this asset's significant volatility.

To diversify your investments, incorporate Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies, but relying only on them could be like putting all your eggs in an unstable basket. Let's diversify our finances and be open to new ideas, okay?
3951  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How can third-world countries counter inflation using bitcoin? on: September 26, 2023, 04:12:51 PM
Bitcoin alongside other cryptocurrencies has aided the economic development of many countries. Bitcoin is typically used for online transaction and businesses in third world countries despite widespread poverty, this is because people can easily connect to the internet and participate in the crypto economy in many developing countries such as India and continent like Africa have high cryptocurrency adaptation rate. After purchasing bitcoin through platforms accessible to their countries, bitcoin holders in third world countries can trade Bitcoin for profits or hold onto their tokens as an investment. Inflation which is characterised by devaluation of currency alongside increasing price of goods and services, this has made people to turn to cryptocurrency like bitcoin an asset that maintain its value over time to hedge  against inflation.

For sure inflation is already a big problem all over the globe and we can see even powerful countries are experiencing problems with inflation, I guess it is obviously a problem by the government since they are just the ones who print money, even here in my country it is a big issue and I can clearly notice how the basic things increase its price and a certain amount of money can only buy a few things unlike back in the day where the value of our currency was still good, probably a 500pesos is still a big amount of money, but today it wasn't enough for 1 day on your whole family or for sure 1-week food.

One of the things that you could do is to invest your money not just save it since if we are just going to put our money in the banks it is surely going to get hit by inflation and over time the value is just going to decrease over time, Putting our money to something like Bitcoin, cryptocurrency or gold could surely counter the inflation, for sure there are some exception on Bitcoin since by its nature it only has 21 million supply overtime we could easily expect the market price to increase its value theoretically, that's what we all believed but still it's a risky invest since it wasn't guaranteed that it's going to happen and we dont know it is possible that the price could reach zero at some point.

In my opinion, the trick is just to save enough, if you save a good amount of money invest it in assets so that you can avoid and counter inflation. Just save enough probably some savings like emergency, and do retirement, insurance, etc.


With prices going up all over the world, its a rough ride, isnt it? I know exactly what you mean. Everyday transactions make it very clear that money is losing its value. I get it. 500 pesos used to feel like a mini-treasure box, but now its just a small amount of money, not even enough to cover a few daily costs.

The old ways of banking arent doing a good job of keeping the value of our hard-earned money. I totally agree with you that  Bitcoin and gold are ways to protect yourself from inflation. Even though there are only 21 million Bitcoins, which shows how rare they are, they do come with their own risks. Its kind of like walking a wire, right? You weigh the possible benefits against the obvious risks. We stay on our toes because we dont know what will happen next. But hey, if there's no risk, there's no gain, right?

Coins clinking is music to my ears. The town is bright with profit from your story. From $100 to $180 is a crypto worthy leap. You're out to win, riding the Bitcoin wave for opportunity.

A crypto friend gently advice: In Bitcoin's world, uncertainty paints the most spectacular pictures. Its an digital adventure full of risk and reward. Congratulations on your earning

Bitcoin is not gambling, yes. A perfect blend of strategy, timing, and luck. Allow your approach to guide your bitcoin trading while you maintain this pattern. Keep playing this Bitcoin concerto, and may your trades be flawless
3953  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: A matter of family conflict regarding Bitcoin. on: September 26, 2023, 03:33:50 PM
This is one of the problem that lack of knowledge on what you are investing on will cause you. He lost his funds either due to his wallet compromise or he sold off at the wrong time due to FOMO. Many bad scenarios are related to bitcoin, of which it wasn't bitcoin that caused it but their own carelessness and unsafe practice. I guess that he used the family funds to invest, instead of using only the amount that he can afford to lose, this is how people that uses money not meant to buy bitcoin for bitcoin purchase would end up in one regrets or the other. If you are a family man and don't have spare money to invest never use money made for the family responsibilities or family saving to buy bitcoin because it isn't only your funds. Bitcoin investment needs patience for it to yield profit.

Your points are valid, but I don't believe it is wise for a family man who isn't wealthy enough to invest in bitcoin, not to mention any other investment that might result in a loss or a gain. The main issue with investors today is that they don't think things through. Even those who can't provide for their families may invest in bitcoin because of the gain they heard. Bitcoin is a long-term investment, and this is the first thing we need understand before becoming involved in anything involving investing. Bitcoin is not a gambling game that you will wager on and be waiting for the game to enter and cash out that very day.

A man who has a family to support, isn't particularly wealthy, and still wants to invest in bitcoin is greedy because your family can't be suffering while you are holding a coin. Additionally, investing from the family budget shows that the man is uninformed because if he knew what he was doing, he would never consider doing so because family savings are intended for family financial issues, and if a man touches them the wife has the right of way.
You've touched on something profound here, especially with the family-first perspective. At its heart, Bitcoin, like all investments, is a leap into the uncertain future. It's more than just numbers on a screen; it reflects our hopes, fears, and, sometimes, our reckless desires. Now, thinking about the modern economic landscape, the temptation to jump onto the crypto bandwagon is real. But you're right; investments should never jeopardize immediate family needs. The tricky part is balancing the immediate with the long-term, especially in a world that's changing at breakneck speed. The question we should perhaps ask ourselves before every investment decision is, "Am I doing this for a better future, or am I letting greed blind me?"
3954  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: It is only Bitcoin and nothing else on: September 26, 2023, 03:14:29 PM
I don't always care about the past, what is gone is gone, the only time I feel sad about my past is because it involved a lot life, I miss my father and I wish he is still here, but for anything financial, there is no point holding on to the past.

Also, those of you complaining about a coin that turned shit, would you do the same if the opposite happened? If LUNA never collapsed and it turn holders into big whales today will you all be out here complaining?

Why are we hearing about the dead coins? What about those that are still very good right even while bears are taking over the market? Any Polygon whale on here? It's was 0.004$ per Polygon years ago and holding till date still makes you a whale isn't it?

People tend to complain only when things are not going fine, we should learn to share the happy stuffs on here too, many alts are crap but not all of them will fail, you can't rely on a single coin and call it a crypto portfolio.
The past is like a ghost - its there, but you cant touch it, and it doesnt help anyone to feel bad about money. Your words make me think of an old saying: "You can't plow a field by turning it over in your mind." Im very sorry to hear about what happened to your dad. When you lose something important to you, the past weighs on you.

On to the coin, huh? Isn't that how life is? We talk about the bad times and the coins that have lost value, but how often do we talk about the things that are going well? You are right on! If LUNA had gone through the roof, people would be humming a different tune. Polygon is a good example, right? From 0.004 dollars to turning holders into whales.

Lets really share more of what's good. The world already has enough bad news. In bitcoin, diversification is the name of the game. If you put these eggs in different bags, one bad egg wont ruin the rest. Cheers to looking ahead and finding crypto's next big thing!

You've seen for yourself how independent crypto can change things. But like any strong tool, it has both good and bad points, right?

I'm sorry to hear about the problems with deposit. That happens a lot,. though. But each obstacle in the road teaches us something and gets us ready for new experiences. Your persistence in trying to get Bitcoin is something to be proud of. Your ability to change will serve you well in a world that is quickly becoming more digital and less centralized. Keep digging deeper into the topic, keep learning and sharing, and above all, don't give up.
3956  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Mistake that prevented your big win. on: September 25, 2023, 11:15:01 AM

A kind of gesture where being responsible can be obtained if you know how to plan ahead of time, not really easy though there are some who can manage to enjoy and balance both gambling and their regular activities, it's always important to weight everything as gambling can really lead you to deeper addiction if you continue to allow things dominate inside you.

Emotion always has that factor in dealing with gambling, instead of making some decent wins, if you allow emotion to takeover chances
of losing everything back together with your initial deposit, mostly lose accompanied by the money that's supposedly you earn if you wisely quit before emotion rule you out.
In other words, responsible behavior in gambling is also the most important thing, summing up your opinion above, that a gambler who experiences defeat or victory must be able to regulate and balance when gambling again, with good awareness and self-control of course. he will make new plans in gambling to avoid losing, of course.
Inadvertently a person's emotions will appear suddenly if he experiences defeat, because he cannot accept it yet, and when that happens of course he must think as clearly as possible, at times like that a person must exercise self-control, if not, then he will get into a lot of trouble in it.
I find it fascinating how much of gambling mirrors the broader strokes of life itself. Risk, reward, emotion, and strategy are all packed into every decision we make, whether its laying a wager or choose a career. The immediacy of these sensations is what makes gambling so exciting, particularly in its online guise.

It is normal to experience emotional turmoil, particularly after suffering a loss. Instead than avoiding these emotions, resilience is about mastering how to move through them gracefully. Reminding oneself of the wider perspective involves having that inner dialogue. Sometimes playing well with the hand you're dealt is more important in life than it is in gambling.

And always, always keep in mind: The house may have an advantage, but a responsible and rational gambler? They actually change the game.
3957  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can Gambling affect your relationship? on: September 25, 2023, 10:52:29 AM
Yes, Gambling addiction has strained a lot of relationships through financial instabilities emotional turmoil, social isolation, and family problems. Gambling which was meant to be a popular kind of entertainment for many and was designed to provide a temporary escape from everyday life and also help one to be more observant mentally task your brain and it is also good for your mental brain. When it becomes an addiction it causes financial strain the strain can manifest in various ways including the loss of shared savings, debt accumulation, and financial secrecy which may lead to strained communication between partners. This communication breakdown can prevent couples, friends, and associates from working together.
We all know that gambling is not at all a good sign for a person, but will create stress for his family in the future. When a gambler becomes addicted to gambling he loses his mental strength and social isolation which affects his family a lot. So it is most important to avoid this gambling and when a healthy person gambles he can develop mental illness just because of gambling addiction. There are many people who gamble for entertainment but at some point they get stuck with the winnings, and later they can never get out of it, hence they become addicted to gambling. When a person starts gambling, they put their money at risk. Once they lose their bets, they decide to steal because they have no money, which is the worst. And what is the impact on their family due to which the family is much ashamed of the society and has to bear a lot of stress on the family and at some point they become destitute. That is why if a gambling addict is to recover from this condition, he must mix with his friends and outside people, so that he can stop gambling and slowly come back from it, only then a gambler can manage his life well.
Gambling can destroy the serenity of both the gambler and their family. You've beautifully described gambling addiction's downward slope from mental anguish to social isolation.

Increasing social interactions can help with healing. But encouraging the person to seek expert help is also vital. Addiction treatment therapists and counselors can help people regain mental and emotional equilibrium. They can help restructure addiction-fueling cognitive habits for lasting recovery and relapse avoidance. Professional support and a strong social network can help you overcome gambling addiction and move forward with strength and hope.
3958  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: As a gambler do you have a potential winning amount limit? on: September 25, 2023, 10:30:43 AM
Sometimes the luck is not on our side and we loses more games. A gambler should be focused enough to know early that today is not his day, and he should quit gambling before reaching the targets else the chances of making more loss may increase.
Luck is most of the important factor in gambling than all others strategy we use and a gambler should know where should need to stop cause not everyday is as same as others lucky day. I don't actually support limitation winning cause hgher expectations always bring nothing but losses. Even someday need to quit when you realise this day is not your as lower expectation is getting risky. there is no surety in gambling so So better not to fully depends on gambling money and gambler smartly, start and stop when need
Luck in gambling is important. It governs itself without patterns or predictability, making it a risky income source. A smart gambler knows betting is volatile and that not all days are the same.

As you noted, luck is fickle, therefore you should stop when you sense an unfavourable tide. Limits must be set to avoid disastrous losses from luck. Your observation emphasizes the importance of restraint in gambling and not placing all one's financial eggs in one basket. Gambling should be balanced with other stable revenue to preserve financial security.
3959  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you cheat in gambling? on: September 25, 2023, 10:09:15 AM
Will you bet on fixed games if you get the tip early?
The very essence of gambling in the first place is to win and maximize profits from your wins, so for every opportunity the game avails, it's mostly expected you use it judiciously as it doesn't come often because the casino will not pardon you either if you loose on any bet they don't make refunds rather they take it's as their own profit made from your bet which you placed.

In essence I'm saying if I am faced with such opportunity my straight answer is a big yes I will make good use of the opportunity and stake as much as I can afford to lose just if it later turns against me, because there are occasions the casino has taken from me not minding how I will feel so if I see such opportunity to stake on a fixed game I will stake and win

In other sense I don't see you staking on a fixed game tip you received early before the game commenced as been bad, rather I see it as an opportunity because the intention of the people who gave you the tip is for you to win so why should you denied yourself of the opportunity to win because you feel it's not right. To add, I don't think it's not right because that can't be seen as cheating or stealing.
You've hit on a universal human motivation: the drive to increase one's financial gain and seize every available chance. However, we must always keep firmly in mind that casinos, not we players, are the primary beneficiaries of gambling's inherent profit-seeking nature. You are correct; casinos do not provide refunds for money lost. The house has a built-in advantage that guarantees long-term financial success. Betting on a rigged game may feel like you're even the odds, but keep in mind that the world is a murky place.

If you know what you're doing, you're being financially responsible by just betting what you can afford to lose. However, the ethical considerations cannot be ignored. Engaging in set games affects the fairness and integrity of gaming, and may lead to more severe penalties in the future, even if not seen as cheating or stealing by everybody.

Do you have experience playing at real casinos and online gambling sites? Is there a difference playing there? I want to know.


Of course there is a huge difference between gambling in online and real casinos. The vibes are really different in real casinos because it gives you a more satisfactory experience. Both are different experiences because real casinos gives you a genuine experience compare to online. For instance, if you are in a real casino you will be able to socialize with other gamblers in the area. Thus, it allows you to interact with others which adds fun and entertainment and enhances your gaming experience. Unlike in online casinos, most of the time you are only with yourself. Also, the interior also boosts the gaming experiences of the players. So, being in real casinos exposed you to that real environment. Online casinos can provide flashy and colorful features to add fun in your gaming experience, but it will not be enough to resemble the real gambling environment.
The physical and digital worlds offer very distinct gambling experiences. Not only aesthetics, but also atmosphere. Human connection is evident in a real casino's excitement, chatter, and anxiety in every roll of dice or shuffle. A remarkable immersive experience. Online platforms aret a poor mirror of brick-and-mortar stores. Their merits exist. Accessibility stands out. Players worldwide can join, gamble, and play regardless of time zones or location. Plus, technology lets online casinos provide more games, frequently with unique twists. Online casinos may emphasize convenience and variety, while traditional casinos emphasize the tangible and sensory. Both help in the ever-changing gambling world.
