Gambling is a choice we did it with our own decision there is nothing that we would say could change it.
We gamble to gain something from it even though we are aware that we could lose rather than gaining what we want.
That is the risk that we took when we decided to gamble, so we must bare the consequence of it.
Yep but still there are sometime we do things without knowing and excess gambling is one of such time, this is a situation where as a gambler one doesn't have the full right to pull out when the outcome is not in their favour, this is a severe case of addiction. But on the other hand once you decide to either quite or keep playing it becomes necessary to choose because at that point the gambler is still in control., so it all still ball down to choice.

~ There's what people called free giveaways, where you're permitted to join a quest for receiving anything for free if you're lucky or being eligible, gambling is all about playing games, both live or virtual games and sports, you bet by using your money to stand in for you that if your prediction is accurate, you stand a chance to make a winning, i don't count anything that does not do with money a gambling because you're not staking anything for such.

And you are right, imo, because gambling, by definition, is about staking something valuable. Yes, some activities, when nothing valuable is at stake, still called "gambling" sometimes, but those cases are the topic of discussion rather on linguistic forums than here in Gambling section.
The reason why many people choose to gambler is to make more valuable profits from what they do. You put your money so that you can make more money which is simple. If you don't bet we'll or have to amounts of luck for you to make a winning, then you are going to lose money totally without getting it back. You win other lose, if other win, you lose. Simple pattern of how gambling works.
When gambling gain prominent was when gaming became monetized and players now earned money while playing games and this have also been the reason why the increase in playing time by many gamblers, this have it ups and down and one of such up and down is the high rate of gambling addictions among people, this is were the player for the reason of chasing loses or winnings end up getting tied down by addictions this is what has given it some negative overview, and another consideration is the place of providing an extra source of income for gamblers and this is in most underdeveloped countries the majority of the gaming fans are now in for the winning since their use it to take care of one or two of their needs.
So money is at the centre of gambling activities,  and whether or not a player chooses to play free games or stake money directly one thing must be spent which is time.

As far as I know, it would make zero difference which jurisdiction the website (or any website) is operating out of because the domain itself (which is .com in this case) can be seized by law enforcement agencies.
You do realise that most law enforcement agents are corrupt, don't you? 1xbet and 1xbit have enough resources to buy the services of many cops around the world which is why they aren't really a big threat to them.

They could go down completely if they make some crazy mistakes which would put them in the limelight for all the wrong reasons if you ask me.
Taking a site down has to go through a lot of processes and must as JollyGood mentioned if 1xbit has not been taken down yet is because it has not received enough attention yet for that to happen, and also this may be as a result of corruption e.g using the casino money to sponsor politicians or bribing them to keep their scheme running.

But btw the two, it will not continue for long and even if 1xbit has an insider in government and law enforcement agency it wouldn't last forever and at some point that connection will no longer save their ass and in the end there will be taken down no matter what.

I guess you need to do your own research to avoid jumping on a hyped project that doesn't have long-term potential, this is very important to do in other to protect your investment in the long run.,  there is no doubt some projects have gained hype lately and even as there is so much potential to earn a good return on investment, it's very important to do a deep due diligence to escape bad projects, e.g some of the meme coins.

some meme coins can provide maximum profit if you buy when the coins haven't gone up, but in most cases meme coins drop very drastically when a few days have just been released on the market.

I don't doubt the ability of meme coins to do x price in multiple ratios within a short period but then we must also consider the risk level because most of those coins that dump easily will also dump on your face faster than pills of cakes under fire, so it is very important to consider the risk factor and how much we are already fo lose holding this project is what your social media.
 Any way DOA.
3965  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gamble Responsibly on: June 04, 2023, 11:15:35 PM
Yes, we still have to learn more about self-control because we often lose control when gambling. And there's no time to stop learning self-control because it's hard to do. But even though it's difficult, we still have to learn and try it because only that can prevent us from losing big. And even though many people have failed to control themselves, we must not give up and keep learning so we can gamble responsibly. After all, if we can do that, we will also benefit from that self-control to limit our gambling activities.
In my opinion, if someone knows his true nature, it means if he knows that he has a vulnerable nature or is easily provoked, it is better to avoid gambling because this will have a very bad impact on one's life. In addition, it is very difficult to know the true nature of a person's personality in him. Seeing other people entangled in gambling and losing everything, in my opinion, can be used as a reference so that we don't do the same thing or be in the same position. However, most people are curious, addicted when they win, and curious when they lose. They always think that they can be one of the lucky people among other people and are too optimistic, but if we think more clearly this is just luck, meaning they will win if luck comes.
Self-control is very important and anyone who have the character of self-control, make it very easy for such a person to leave successfully with others and be able to avoid some things such as gambling addictions and other addiction that may affect individual life negatively.

Gambling addiction is one serious negative factor that affects the overall acceptance of gambling in many places but if an individual has self-control then the case will be easy to deal with because there have been an increasing number of gambling addiction behavioural patterns among many recently.
3966  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Failed DCA Strategy When Buying Bitcoin on: June 04, 2023, 11:04:20 PM
...Approximately $460 million was spent buying Bitcoin, resulting in a loss of over $239 million. Perhaps this investor did not know that the DCA strategy is better to use for a longer period, or perhaps he found a more profitable investment.

I think that anyone who is financially able to invest a million dollars every day should definitely know about the DCA strategy. It is only obvious that he decided to sell all his bitcoins and this decision may be related to financial problems in real business, or it is possible that he invested in something else, for example Pepe.
Well have anyone also thought wether the individual was a government official who have invested stolen money into Bitcoin then by buying a $1 million every day for almost a year and he just not interested in the dollars cost an average of both his entry point and even the exit price of Bitcoin.

But bitcoin as an asset is best held for the long term to be able to properly fall between its potential profits making.
3967  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Need signal service on: June 04, 2023, 10:39:46 PM
Following trading signals or copy trade is the fasted means to losing money since there are several realities that those signals never give accurate results unlike what we used to have before, so for that traders have constantly been advised to stick to their individually developed trading techniques.

But one fact we have to come to term with is that trading is high risk and at that, its outcome depends largely on luck and trading skills and every trader must have one of those two.
3968  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Wagering requirements for withdraw on: June 04, 2023, 10:30:38 PM
One thing regarding the wagering requirements, is that most of us have fallen for not reading very high wagering requirements,in fact when I land on one that says 10x I already know that I will not get anything from there, because it is obvious I'm not going to get there, if nothing else, sometimes with 1x you can lose everything, now 10x no matter how much patience you have or something is achievable, but it has to be someone with a demonstration of Faith and a lot of Experience , in Addition to having a lot of Good luck , it's the only way I can see that things can happen,  otherwise I don't think so, as I've seen 30x, 50x, 100x requirements, things that are not within my reach.

You were lucky to have detected that earlier and that is because of your prior knowledge of what the negative impact the wagering requirements are for the gambler against the casino and also failed to read the terms and conditions of the casino and to know what their wagering requirement will be, any wagering requirements that is above 1x then it a pilot that will fly the gambler to many lose eventually.
3969  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: New alt coin, Islamiccoin. 1m+ followers on twitter on: June 04, 2023, 10:23:23 PM
Is this token specifically for Islam only?
What’s the use of this project and how about its liquidity and total supply?
The project looks suspicious to me though and its pure of hype. I agree with the others that twitter account is not proof of legitimacy, better to be more careful and better to give more details about the site here.
Don't think this token has anything to do with Islam as a religion the name Islanicoin may just be a random name chosen by the team, but the issue is that this project looks so unserious and I advise members to do a due diligence search about the token before ever considering to invest in it.

But if you all can stay away from this coin I think that will be very helpful in protecting from possible loses.
3970  Economy / Gambling / Re: is KYC data on Gambling sites safe? on: June 04, 2023, 09:45:22 PM
Are you okay with an online casino asking you for a kyc here in the crypto space? That you will discover in the end that it is not under regulation. Would you also be willing to give your kyc? Because we all know that when you provide data information, it is obvious that they already have a data record about you.

But if a casino is regulated, that's fine with me because a gambling platform just follows the rules in that case. So as a gambler we should know our risk tolerance somehow, right?

Yeah, it's also a factor before submitting your private information, how secure you are with the casino and how would it be possible that they will take the responsibility, if that casino is complying with the regulation and would just like continue doing business the chance that they will secure your information is better compared to the site where they are not liable to any regulation.

I agree with what you are saying, it is a must understand the risk tolerance before taking any actions.
Just like I said earlier, most of Bitcoin and cryptocurrency users are privacy concus and at that we constantly avoid KYC platforms and even though we sometime didn't have choice but to get through with verification we only choose secured sites and we can trust them without data.

But also we sometime fall victims to identity theft without our knowledge but also for a crime committed with stolen documents there is a limit to what the scammer can do with those KYC documents as at some times the documents wouldn't meet the requirements for those verifications as there will be more demands
3971  Economy / Speculation / Re: Can we experience $80k this year? on: June 04, 2023, 09:39:32 PM
Since the year started with a good results by moving from $20k to $24k this year, show that the price of BTC and crypto will move higher to satisfy investors soon. Now that the month is moving faster and investors need to think faster so that they will not miss their reward at the end of the year. The price of BTC just drop down to $22k few days ago, which is another opportunity for those that missed last year not to invest in a stable coins to do it now because, the price of BTC will surely reach $80k before the end of this year 2023.
Are you sure investors will experience $80 this year?
The obvious truth is that, no one can predict what the price of bitcoin will be at the end of the year 2023, even though the year started at a good time for bitcoin and was able to recover a little from its last year's down price that effected all the entire market a d as a matter of fact most cryptocurrencies that doesn't have stable liquidities were dumped in that period and only the one that have strength to build back their recovery to claim to their present price such as bitcoin.

But to say I could predict an $80k price is definitely something I can't predict for the year 2023.
3972  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Two Events that'll Influence the Strength of NGN /USDT on: June 04, 2023, 09:33:41 PM
There are two events that have occurred in the past one month in Nigeria that have the potential to impact the exchange rate.

1. The Launching of Dangote Refinery
:
It is believed that the facility could produce adequate refined fuel ⛽ for local consumption. Asides that, the excess production could be exported. Export means demand for the NGN and appreciation of the currency.

2. The BAT administration :

The BAT administration is very critical for the economy of Nigeria. Starting with the removal of fuel subsidy and the reaction of the USD to NGN as a result is just one of the many policies to be introduced.

How do you think these two events could impact the strength of NGN against the USD? Will you buy and save USDTinstead of saving in NGN?
The two me mentioned are not big enough to impact or influence the value of the naira vs the US dollar, the only thing that I can point to that can impact and make changes to the exchange rate is the move by the president to make just one exchange price, which means the naira will have a unified value unlike what we currently have that we have dollar vs black market price vs CBN official rate.

Note that the Dangote refinery was just commissioned but the truth is the refinery is not functional yet because it has not been fully built and it will take up to August to October 2023 to have the refinery working and which is a long time from now that may make different sense to Nigerians.

Yeah I saw this news flash on my notification earlier today but I never take it serious since the content did not sound appealing to me, because considering sex to be a sport game will further expose the world to pornogragy unless the sport would be view publicly and the rest of the world wound be ok with that and even if some other countries are ok with such games it wound be allow in other countries so I can't bet in the success of this development.

But then let see how the country go about implementing this development and to see how other countries react to this development.
3974  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Advice when you are going a bit far in gaming and betting on: June 04, 2023, 08:02:58 PM
one of the things that bothers me about gambling with crypto is the lack of identity verification. the self ban list that brick casinos, and their sites, have can really help someone with a gambling problem. they can add their name to the list, and they are barred from entering that casino, certainly from cashing anything out.
I don't think many of us will really understand what you mean by the privacy verification issues you mentioned that it is the problem with cryptocurrency casinos since verification has been an easy task on most of the crypto casino sites we have around.

Most of the players here already know about KYC and what to expect from a casino that is regulated and requires KYC both as a monetary requirement or a prerequisite to solving some issue in the casino, but regardless, cryptocurrency casinos don't provide an escape route to KYC procedures.
3975  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: A long term investor here, thinking about adding RoLLBit Token on: June 04, 2023, 07:55:54 PM
Well the answer you seek could easily been seen and gotten from reading the casinos token whitelist  which was even suggested  by a user on a the first page of your thread because I'm not sure if any one will give you a more precise answer than what the whitelist will give.
I haven't  gambled using any casinos token but I think there shoukd be some promotional offers from casinos to users using their token to gamble rather than the regular cryptocurrencies and the token you listed is a very nice one and if it could do such a figure within a year, is a shownthat the casino itself is doing well and one of the things that determines  the price movement  of a casino token is the users base.
Even at that, the whitelist may contain all the information that the ops require but then he may also need some advice from real investors of that women and what have their general experience about coin have become, since we have hard several other casinos to mend who have moved in various directions in terms of it price.

But Roolbit is a well-known casino and I am sure any product or project coming from them will be successful,  so even though we may have experienced some ugly experiences with other casino tokens, Rollbits will be an exceptional case in this situation.

Gundogan only know great goals?
What two goals he scored today, amazing goals for him and for the memory of all the fans.

I think Manchester city deserve the win and Manchester United only have a chance because the penalty and because Manchester CIty (i dont know why), go full defense in the last minutes.
Gundogan was the main actor in this victory, yes the two goals he scored brought Manchester City to win the second trophy this season. Manchester United on the other hand could only score from the spot which made the position level in the first half. But entering the second half, Gundogan again managed to get his name on the scoreboard and put Manchester City ahead 2-1 again. Until the long whistle sounded for the end of the game, no more goals were scored and Manchester City managed to get back on track to get the treble winner this season.
Man city is definitely a good team and they will always do well.  It was easy to predict that Man United would not be able to cope with Man City. However, Man United managed to score 1 goal against Man City as a fairly strong team. However, it is expected that Man United will be able to do well in the future. because some good players are emerging in this team slowly. However, Man City being a very old and good team, it is very difficult for any team to win a match against them.
Manchester United have performed fairly well this season compared to the last season where there were on a steady decline pest, but this time at least there can climb up to some good position before their energy failed to take them to the top of the season and one can not blame them since their last season records have made a deep gap in their performances and this is not something that football fans should undermine in this season because this will contribute to what the outcome will be for this club in the coming season.

Manchester United will be able to move higher in rank and position in the last season and could win the premier league next season if the club can make good use of the next transfer window to stock up on good players.

Ever consider device fingerprinting, rather than just IP addresses and browser histories, as a casino's Sherlock Holmes? Device fingerprinting is akin to a private investigator combing through the digital DNA of your gadget. It's like an invisible barcode, unique as a snowflake, transmitted each time your device taps into a website. We're talking the minutiae here, like the operating system, device type, the screen's resolution - the works!


I have never considered device finger print sensor to be a good means of identifying the individual behind the device, but taking second thought, if everything can go well to the point that the security team can verify the individual behind the fingerprint and separate the DNA, it will go a long way to prevent such problem as multiple accounting and the rest of the what have you.

Between let's see if any member here will go further to make sure that every fingerprint is linked to an individual and identifiable.

In terms of marketing exchange will provide higher liquidity that individuals investors, this is because on the exchange
, the coin will be exposed to a more high volume market and multiple cryptocurrency users getting access to them unlike the individual investors who have zero worries we, or have idea of what become the future
