401  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Paying house rent with bitcoin is it appropriate? on: January 16, 2024, 05:15:16 PM
Why is it not appropriate? You shouldn't be asking us this question though, to find out you need to ask the landlord yourself, if they will accept Bitcoin is their decision to make, but honestly I believe it will be hard to come by such people.

Your building owner must know what Bitcoin is before they can start accepting, and honestly it might not be good for them, if you are not the only tenant why would they accept Bitcoin from you? Like I have said though, it's their decision, not yours.

if I build a home to rent out I don't think I will accept Bitcoin as means of payment for some reasons, one is the security aspect, people look crypto investors as extremely rich people, they can decide to do some bad things, also if some disagreement happen between the two of you, you will end up exposing yourself even more by trying to prove that he paid you with Bitcoin.

No thank you, my advice is if you win any good amount of money, accept that you just get lucky, so use the money well, go find something good to invest the money on, gambling can give you opportunity but it won't be the same for long, if you waste the money away you might never get lucky again.

Respect your winning and do something reliable with your money, gambling money is somehow never yours until you really make something good out of it.

Gambling taxes is compulsory in some countries but it shouldn't be a must, to me it is like a way that the government are forcefully making money from their citizens.
403  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: cashout or wait till the end? on: January 16, 2024, 10:13:08 AM
It's obviously greed, if they lose it all they deserve it, like who the hell would fail to take profit when they are already in million dollar range? I wouldn't even waited that long, from the past experience I have with crypto and profit taking, I don't relent anymore when it's good enough for me.

That is even in the investment aspect not gambling, as foe gambling you are making money on air, it's something you don't work for, and if things go your way you don't have to hesitate, but of course people are too greedy, so I won't feel bad if something like this happen to anyone, they deserve it.

it's lack of respect for luck, if people understand that luck is picky they will respect whatever they get out of luck, and patiently wait for another good day.
404  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Social aspects of online gambling on: January 16, 2024, 09:11:02 AM
Socialize in casino is a joke, gamblers walk into a casino with the hope of making money, even if they have to interact with strangers it will be for a minute, money is all on their mind, casino is not Facebook, if they need the socialization part there are many ways to do it, not in a casino, they can visit a coffee shop and talk to strangers, they can also use online video to make friends, there is time for everything.

Also don't you see that it will be distracting to gamble and to meet people? It only make sense if you are playing games that involves other gamblers, still, you don't want to let your guide down, because other player can take advantage of you easily.

I know it depends on who you are, some people do like the social aspect, that's why we will see sports fan going to watch matches with their friends or even strangers, I am not like this, I am more of an introvert, I will prefer to enjoy my games alone and that's why I don't even visit casinos apart from the risks side of located casinos.
405  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Drug (cocaine) addicts compromises gambling potentials on: January 15, 2024, 01:08:56 PM
Drug is dangerous, everyone knows this before having a taste of it, this is the humans decisions, maybe I can become a drug addict too but I am not willing to try it out, unless maybe I was forced in the most brutal way? But I don't pray for such, you don't have to use drug before you accept that they are not safe, just stay away for drugs, so I don't blame anything else but the humans that consumes drugs.

There isn't much different with gambling either, I am pretty sure that the person OP is talking about is already into gambling, one addiction always lead to the other, but choosing drug at first will surely increase your desire for money, so that you can buy more drugs, so the easiest thing that will come to mind is no other than gambling, can't you see it rhymes? These are two great combos.

I strongly believe that this person already knows drug before gambling, he isn't new to both in anyway, he has no good source of income yet he has to fill up his desire for drugs, so yes gambling is the easy way out, I don't feel pity people like this, they are the ones that can rescue themselves, no one can.
406  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is not a means to an end, Do it for fun and don't take it as a job on: January 15, 2024, 11:11:28 AM
I am wondering why they would stress themselves up, dressing up every morning just to pretend as if they are going to work only to land in a casino, why can't they stay indoor and do their thing online? When I started my online business years ago, many people start gossiping around that I am jobless, I don't mind them and today they are the one who are jobless, the situation of the country suddenly changed and they are making too less to none.

Online jobs are better than offline jobs, and in the near future everyone will have to submit to this, the best skills that make the most money are online based, anyway.

Many people don't know anything about gambling, they just see someone who won a lot of money and they decide to give their shot too, nothing bad here though but they proceeded in a very bad way, resulting into losing all their money, seeking for knowledge first is what many people don't respect and they pay the price the hardest ways.
407  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What's The Weirdest Alibi Of Gamblers So They Can Continue Gambling? on: January 15, 2024, 10:14:30 AM
People make up some words to continue their journey in whatever they are doing, some times its just like a motivation for them and I really can't judge on that, but what I found so wrong is you as a gambler believing that the more you gamble the more likely you will win.

There is a saying from such gamblers that your win is closer the more you gamble, it makes me sick, because believing in such words will only get you wrecked, you are to limit your gambling session, to limit your spending on gambling, to also be able to make the right decisions, like when you win you will be able to quit for that day and wait for another day.

Some people treat casinos as a land of wish granting, where they will have to sleep like a visitor who must be treated nicely, casinos need to make money to be in business for long term too, you winning is not good for them, it's a shame that peoples mind are easy to mess with...  

The alibi of many gamblers is obviously words like this, keep gambling your luck is around the corner, you will end up learning the harder way.
408  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What do you think about ETF's? Could they help reduce crypto scam rate on: January 15, 2024, 08:23:30 AM
Let's say that, the ETF approval will bring trust and confidence for people who never trusted Bitcoin from the start, now many new investors will come into crypto but this approval is just for Bitcoin only, and we have thousands of crypto projects right now, so what do you think is going to become unchanged still? Scams will still be here, no matter what.

One good reason why is that some people want the new kids on the block, not Bitcoin, they want the x100 gains and that is impossible with Bitcoin, this is only possible in alternative coins and that's why alts space is the den of scammers in this crypto haven.

ETFs can't stop scam rate unless all crypto projects are going ETF and this is impossible, maybe few will, but many people will still invest in projects that are not ETF approved, before ETFs approvals, this has always been the way, nothing will change it.
409  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Anyway to be smart about this? on: January 14, 2024, 04:49:36 PM
Before now, this kind of issue had also been experienced by my friend. His wallet got compromised, and every valuable asset in it was moved to an unknown wallet, but there was a token in that hacked wallet that was not yet listed on any exchange (bought from an ICO). I believe it's because the token was not yet listed; that's why the hacker did not move out the token.

My friend wanted to move the token to a new wallet he has created because he knows that when the token gets listed on the exchange, it will be profitable. So, what he actually did was give the wallet phrase to about three friends and ask them to import the wallet on their device. After which, all of them had an agreement that one person among the four of them would send BNB to the wallet, which would serve as a gas fee, while the other three people would initiate a withdrawal after the BNB deposit was successful.

It was like a rescue mission, lol, but

It actually worked like that: the token was successfully withdrawn, and the rest of the left-over BNB also got automatically withdrawn to the hacker's wallet.

@OP, If the staking period of that friend's coin is due, it will be transferred back to the hacked wallet you are talking about, and if the coin is already listed on an exchange and it's a valuable coin, there is a high chance that it will be withdrawn to the hacker's wallet even before you think of sending it out. But if it is not done by the hacker before you try, I will advise you to try the technique my friends used. If it's an Ethereum-based coin, use an ETH deposit for the fee, but if it's a BNB-based coin, you can deposit BNB for the fee.
This works because the hacker don't use the automatically sending trick on the wallet already, if not, once the BNB entered the wallet it will automatically be moved into the hackers private wallet, there won't be enough time to move your tokens.

If the recovery seed is lost to a random person who have not much skills with crypto wallet you can also move the token out, I guess that's why your pals are able to move the token, OP should try moving the token out by sending $1 worth of BNB to the wallet, just to see what will happen, if the BNB also vanish in seconds then the whole wallet is compromised with the staked tokens.
410  Other / Off-topic / Re: Who does gambling addiction affect the most? on: January 14, 2024, 11:51:53 AM
Addiction has no respect for anyone, no matter how high the respect that humans have for you, addiction can still consume you, even if you are the president of the country or the number on billionaire of the whole world.

Gambling addiction has no friend, it knows no family, it's something that happens when the opportunity is available, it strikes hard on anyone who either is greedy or someone who is trying to use gambling as their source of income, do not solve your income problem with gambling.

Many people think that, since some people are getting lucky, winning jackpot, they can also the be next winner, this consume their thoughts and they focus on gambling for years, what I haven't seen is people who make it in gambling than those who lose money in gambling, why is that? This doesn't make casinos as fraudsters, the whole games are all based on luck.

it's definitely something you don't want to sleep on, gambling is very risky, that's why you have to get something going on for you to be a gambler and do not expect to become rich with gambling.
411  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: You'll be a discipline gambler in sports if you have a real bankroll. on: January 14, 2024, 10:21:12 AM
In gambling, you don't dare chase your loses, the reason why people do this is because they lack knowledge about gambling, the moment you chase your losses you have given the casino power over you, don't do it.

That's why people need to understand what they are getting into before they start, if you are planning an attack on a country you need to know what the country's capabilities are, how many soldiers they have and how strong their military back up is, you don't do this? You are planning a suicide mission.

Casinos are winning over gamblers because the gamblers have no clue what gambling really is, first of all, make sure you don't risk more than you are willing to lose, the smaller the money is the better, we can't always thing about the winning side only, that's why using small money matters, then if you lose the money, get up and leave, don't try to make the money back.  
412  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Another question? Tell me your average amount per bet and your monthly income? on: January 14, 2024, 09:32:55 AM
I use very small chuck of my monthly income to gamble, and most times I have lose the money, it's my decision to still keep filing but trust me I am not doing this to rely on gambling as my income source, I do this only if I want to, there are times I prefer spending time watching movies and I don't feel like gambling at all, and there are times where I miss gambling but I don't have money to risk on gambling.

If you are making money from other sources you won't care too much on gambling, if fun is what you are looking for we all know that gambling isn't the only way, the reason why people are so expectation on gambling is because they want all the money they can make in this world from gambling.

This is not the right way to deal with gambling, it's just like not having money but trying to invest money on Bitcoin, you need a source of income, get a job and don't use all the money you make on gambling, that is dumb, what if gambling never works out for you? That's why risking some percentage is the best thing to do.

On the good days where I have enough income, I risk not much that 10% and if it's not looking very good I risk nothing more gga. 5% so it depends on how much I make.
413  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Crypto scams flourish most during bull runs. on: January 12, 2024, 07:23:26 AM
The offers don't have to be good for rugpulls to happen, all those high yield projects still exists but a normal project with no stake feature will still scam anyone, all they have to do is confuse people that the project is the next best thing and the team or dev will slowly dump on investors.

If you have to go for alternative crypto coins, make sure the team is the best part, it's hard to get scam by teams that have good reputations in their past lives, like a project I invested some money on in 2022, the team are game builders from Activision and EA games, they are well known, and the risk was worth it after all, it's now one of the most performing in my crypto wallet. 

Bitcoin is the most reliable, less risky investment in crypto space, it's the only one I can recommend to anyone, but people cares more about how much they will make, that's why they want the next big thing.
414  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think women will make better gamblers by their nature? on: January 11, 2024, 01:01:08 PM
Most women don't want to take risks, and that's the good side of them, it means when they start losing too much money they know when to quit, unlike we men that have some stubborn spirits in us, some will blame it on responsibility and some will blame it on their level of zeal in them.

The little experience I have with some business women I knew they are not up or prepare for any long term losses, they always change their mind so fast.

Most women don't want to do anything, they are different from those who don't want to risk too much, most women would rather do nothing and spend money lavishly, they are nothing without their man, this type of women are much in number in today's world.

Gambling wise, women are limited in numbers compare to man, and it's fine, like who runs this world any way? It's always men, this is why women lives longer than men, the most dangerous skills, ways and jobs are done by men, only very limited numbers of women do risky things.
415  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who is the money manager? is it a casino or game provider? on: January 11, 2024, 12:07:20 PM
Who do you think is the money manager? Game providers render their services to casinos and they get paid from the casinos, it's obvious, isn't it? Anyway it's not bad that you ask, maybe many don't know.

However the casino gets the game is less my concern, because the owner of a casino is the one to make all the money, games provider only makes games and since this somehow gives gamblers the confidence to trust the casino even more the casino have to settle them some percentage of it's earning.

How they will pay is what I don't know, either it's one time payment/settlement or non-stop gradual payment, that's between the casino and the game provider.
416  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Finally ETF approved on: January 11, 2024, 10:06:11 AM
Yes it's been approved finally, but I am disappointed because this is not how I pictured the movement of Bitcoin after the ETF approval, there is nothing I can do about it though, since it's not in my power, but this approval is good on the long run, so maybe with time the market will start reacting to this approvals.

On the long run there will be much confidence in people to buy some Bitcoin, it's all good, but what will happen after the coming bull market is unknown, lets not forget how Black Rock loves taking over everything for good, I am sure they will cook something up in future.
417  Economy / Gambling / Re: From $17 to $37000!!! Craziest Crypto Win in 2023!!!! on: January 11, 2024, 09:11:32 AM
I am not surprised, people do win like this in gambling, this is one good news, I bet there is more out there that we don't know of, but I won't be motivated by this, I will still keep using my same strategy for my own sake, I am happy for whoever this person is in real life.

I do hope that he use the money well, as people can become greedy after they win some amount of money in gambling, they will want to get more, from this 37k to 370k if possible, but they won't think about how possible it is to go from 37k to 0k, this is why I don't do more than myself.

OP, the way you create this topic looks like you are promoting that online casino, it's too well detailed like an advertisement, even talking about the same game like luring people on here to try the same strategy out, anyway.
418  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The most logical and profitable game on: January 10, 2024, 11:43:23 AM
Most logical and profitable? Nah thanks, I am good with using what I can only afford to lose, and if I win a lot of money using small money that I can afford to lose it's even better, there is nothing here to chase for me, gambling is something I do to have some fun, and that's why I don't do it everyday.

It's sad reality that gambling isn't built in the favour of gambler, money is not that easy to make, and don't try to confuse yourself that it is, now with this mindset, how can you rely on gambling as your go-to side when you need money?

I don't trust anything strategy or trick in gambling, whatever games it can be, gambling will never choose you over the casino, you are only bound to win once in a while and that's about how good you are at managing your fund, only give to casino what you can afford to lose, because you can't always outsmart a casino.
419  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think gambling every day is better? on: January 10, 2024, 10:46:32 AM
I don't believe that gambling everyday draws you closer to wining chances, I believe that what brings you closer is how you manage your money, the lower you risk on gambling the more you will have left to try again before you quit for the day.

I like having my days of gambling in a week, two times in week most times, and I don't have to win one round out of the two days in a week, it's what I can afford after all, gambling has been so good to some people, they can't even appreciate LUck, they believe it's their doing, but it's really not, they just get lucky it is.

a piece of advice, don't expect too much in gambling, face your work or job, and learn new skills that will give you passive income, gambling isn't the solution for this.
420  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: SEC Approves ETF - Turns out, NOT on: January 10, 2024, 09:53:37 AM
Lol, I was expecting a similar drama, that Gensler is stubborn as F*ck, I knew he won't just announce the approve of the ETFs without creating a scene first.

Like how does it sound that the SEC twitter account got hacked? People that should know about security the most became the victim? I knew its a a cooked up story, they are trying to blame something else, I believe these bastards have a plan after all.

Even I always use 2FA on my twitter account, why would the SEC not use such security feature to secure its account? I hope Elon Musk brings some light on this Twitter hack excuse, I believe it's either a big plan or the SEC just lied about it.
