4001  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why do hackers steal huge amounts of bitcoins? on: October 17, 2020, 11:31:35 PM
Everyone is eager of making money. Hackers are one step above, because all that necessary is the celebration. When a hacker successfully hacks and stole some data or some data he'll be with heavenly feeling. Based on my knowledge about hackers, they just focus on large volume of fund hacks to show their potential.

Hackers are highly passionate towards it, and go to any extent as they know how to stay anonymous. We may say it is possible to have track of the person, but this isn't happening with every hacker. One in ten gets tracked while the rest stay safe.
4002  Economy / Exchanges / Re: localbitcoins is still exisiting im surprised on: October 17, 2020, 06:50:16 PM
We've got more and more number of trusted P2P Exchanges, but localbitcoins have kept its reputation strong in the market. For the strict KYC people started to avoid using localbitcoins. Even now it is the one contributing large volume of cryptocurrency to cash trading. There'll be difference in the price of bitcoin, compared to other exchanges, but due to its accessibility and different traders giving more transaction option makes people go for it.
4003  Economy / Economics / Re: Coronavirus is very harmful to fiat currencies, not bitcoin on: October 17, 2020, 04:40:35 PM
Fiat currency flow got affected due to the pandemic. This is a temporary issue, and to increase the circulation of fiat currencies governments have made several plans. Fiat market is much associated with the economic conditions of a country. In specific when the production is affected automatically the impact can be  experienced over money flow.

In my locality during the pandemic most of people out of cash started to cultivate their own food for survival. This is the situation prevailing around the globe, coronavirus is not harmful to anything specific. It has made good changes in human beings as well as made economic crash on the other side.
4004  Economy / Speculation / Re: What will happen next if the resistance breaks? on: October 16, 2020, 11:59:42 PM
As usual we might as well see some ups and downs if it's going to touch the $11k just like how it did last month. On the other hand, Trump's tweet seems like a little connected to the market so, this is just one of the factors that could affect the price of Bitcoin. Corona virus is just a given reason if someone wants to make a move to the market although it didn't actually make any effect on the market but with the influencers getting COVID is just a downer.

Looks like the weekend is being really kind so far. Trump's comments dropped a few hundred dollars off the BTC price but the Square/Jack Dorsey news and comments seemed to have not only recovered that but pushed BTC way up above 11k right now. Think people are hoping we see 13k by end of month for a serious Christmas price;)
Every time the price will be dragged forward based on the speculation with Christmas Eve, and there'll be rise in the price. This happens as a result of most people selling their holdings to spend on the vacation. This time the US election and the Christmas is so close between months. Possibly a better outcome from the election result will cause a positive growth, and the same continues with the Christmas year end price move. A positive statement about bitcoin from the winning candidate once after the result will be big blessing for the year 2020.
4005  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Will UNISWAP become a centralized exchange? on: October 16, 2020, 11:14:33 PM
For large volume swaps the fee looks like a huge one, and the team has already mentioned about their further development and taking the fee down to 0.005% which is quite good in my opinion. Just on the fee we can't come to a conclusion that uniswap is going to be centralized in the future.

The way uniswap exchange is being developed has made it reach high compared to most other DEX available for trading. Hope the decentralized network with lower swapping fee will be the future of uniswap than going centralized.

Even if Bitsler has all features on the sportsbook, it does not mean that they will have many players.
On the contrary, having less feature does not mean that Bitsler will have few players only.
Bitsler has a lot of users of them almost no people are playing sports. Only few people might have tried. As you know when people see less feature or not player friendly then they will not use that. Also only few people may re-visit. People try to play on such site which is player friendly.They have only few players on sportsbook that's why maximum game do not come in play from start soon.
I don't find anything different from other sportsbook. When we make a comparison with other sportsbook landing page, it is almost the same. Bitsler looks completely user friendly, I don't know how a page should look and what are the other features required to be added. For a gambler the odds are available which is almost similar with other sportsbook. It also got almost every sporting event added to it.
4007  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Best Bitcoin Banks of 2020 on: October 16, 2020, 04:53:25 PM
Often used to see on some articles that bitcoin is accepted by specific bank, further we never get any information regarding the same. This way till date several banks have started to accept and store bitcoin. Same time more banks have restricted and stopped services for bitcoin associated businesses. As of now we can't make any conclusion on the list of banks working with bitcoin and the best from that list.
4008  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you a high roller? on: October 15, 2020, 05:23:10 PM
Once I was a high roller, and used to spend upto 0.1 btc per roll. Most of the time maximum roll value happens with martingale strategy. I encountered a massive loss out of gambling and the same has made me go low on rolls. Right now the maximum bet value doesn't exceed $10.

Today read about a person winning from chips.gg having a bet value of $400, and a misclick getting him a winning amount of $19800 on Dice. Maybe some day I need to be such a high roller with high percentage of luck.
4009  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why don't you stop rushing to promote bounty from a scammed bounty manager on: October 15, 2020, 11:13:33 AM
I've seen Bounty Managers paying from their own pocket to keep their reputation strong in the forum. Bounty Managers have their own way of analysing the potential and the team behind the project. Something happens in between, and the same makes the project turn to be a scam. This is where Bounty Managers suffer and gets bad image. Maybe there are people who does it with intention, but most trusted Bounty Managers won't get into such scam approaches.
4010  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Hardware Cryptowallet with Fingerprint Authorization on: October 15, 2020, 07:05:30 AM
I completely get that these sort of "cool features" are nice, I think it's really a bit too much and a bit too unnecessary. For a smartphone that I pretty much use everyday and I have on my hand a lot of times? Makes complete sense. For a hardware wallet that has my funds that I mostly just hold and just transact from time to time? A bit unnecessary. A cheap small Ledger Nano S or Trezor One is enough for me.
I think the point here is that this hardware wallet is not designed for hodling, it is designed for convinient shitcoin trading, stacking, yield farming, you name it. Gate.io, an exchange that launched this wallet, is not interested in their users holding something. Gate.io is interested in their users trading ten thousands of shitcoins (luckely the cool hardware wallet supports all of them) and paying commissions to exchange. That is why they embedded the fingerprint recognition technology into their wallet, such hardware wallet is to be used on everyday basis, like a smartphone.
We don't know to what extent this hardware wallet is secure. Gate.io might have got different plans of developing such a hardware wallet, but the fingerprint access will surely help with the heir if something happens in between. As the synchronisation also requires the fingerprint recognition it isn't easy for someone to take control of the funds.
4011  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Russia blocks localbitcoins on: October 15, 2020, 05:23:45 AM
The telecommunication authority of Russia Roskomnadzor earlier blocked Binance into Russia and added it to the blacklist database. Later the restriction is resolved. Now it has blocked the access to localbitcoins, and people find a way accessing with VPN. Russia is the leading country for the P2P Exchange operation contributing around 20% of the trading.

Russia being one among the supportive country for cryptocurrency have stated bitcoin usage as payment is illegal while people are free to buy and sell which is the reason for the increased trading on Russia through localbitcoins than other countries.
4012  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Who said that ICOs are dead? on: October 14, 2020, 11:49:41 PM
The cryptomarket is refreshing now and then to function flawless. This happens as a result of development, and increase in the usage. Based on this we've been experiencing continuous changes in the market. We had ICO's in the very beginning days, and later it turned to be IEOs and now it is all about DEFI and few more.

Everything will be active, but the transition makes people to discuss and participate on the most recent ones than the one that served to be the base. Upon this one can have a clear picture of ICO still alive in the market.

4014  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: what would happen on: October 14, 2020, 10:48:55 PM
if someone generated 1000 transactions every minute at zero fee.
Would it mean that anyone else who tried bitcoin would have very little chance of getting confirmed?
The chance of such transactions getting confirmed is very low of less than 1% Earlier when the network isn't that congested there were transactions that gets confirmed after a long time when no fee is provided. Now the miners just reject the transaction, so no transaction is being confirmed without fee. Even the fee provided based on the transaction volume is getting stuck to the network out of congestion.

The transaction getting confirmed is upon the miners, they won't be getting anything out of the transaction. Maybe if you're lucky some might do it. The chance of a transaction to get confirmed without fee in the past was found to take place between 1-7 days.
4015  Economy / Economics / Re: I tried money making apps! on: October 14, 2020, 09:51:01 PM
I've tried few applications. Among the twenty applications listed, very few give micro earning on completing surveys. Fiverr is good with freelance work, but it isn't simple as said. I've created several gigs, but never used to get an order. Apart from this all were investment based applications, where we are supposed to invest and get an earning out of it fulfilling certain chain schemes. Some will be lucky to earn while majority just signup and lets it go.
4016  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Casinos with free withdrawal fees on: October 14, 2020, 05:30:53 PM
On an average every casino charges around 0.0003 - 0.006 btc as withdrawal fee. No casino is ready to spare the withdrawal fee from their pockets. Right now everything is interconnected with money, so there is no use of expecting anything free.

At some exchanges there are trading events during which there is no fee between trades. This is limited for few weeks, maybe same as that on exchanges, we might get little concession on gambling sites for few days time.
4017  Economy / Gambling / Re: Exbet is LIVE >> The Bitcoin Betting Exchange [exbet.io] on: October 14, 2020, 04:22:19 PM
Is the site is down, I've tried with different browsers. I wasn't able to access exbet.io, with chrome the page is loading and nothing is visible on the landing page. After a long time the page is visible, the network is quite strong. Anyhow finally I was into exbet.io, and the interface is simple and easy usable.

exbet.io is registered on Curacao, I saw one of the casino registered with Curacao, but people from Curacao is restricted to use that respective website. Does exbet.io have any such limitations/restrictions.
4018  Economy / Gambling / Re: 🔥Sportbook and Casino: BITSLER > $10,000 DAILY Wagering contest < on: October 13, 2020, 05:16:36 PM
Hi Bitsler, I just created an account in your sportsbook, I put my bet on the Philippine Basketball Association, Filipino cup and I was surprise there's no live betting, what's probably the reason for this, last conference there's a live betting, it's just only now that there's no offer.
I did not even notice there's a PBA in there. Thanks for bringing it up. I have not been following up our local basketball league but, now that NBA is over, I'll sure bet in the next games after getting familiar with the teams again.

@Bitsler, you will probably see more Filipino bettors like me if you provide more betting options like what @Vaculin is asking.
Based on the match situation, at times the live betting access will be paused for a while. Further if the match once again gets steady creating better difference between the odds the live betting access will be opened. Maybe that's the reason why the user isn't able to spend on live betting today, and accessed the same in yesterday's match.
4019  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it possible to live without banks? on: October 13, 2020, 03:34:04 PM
Banks help with managing user funds, and with the anywhere accessibility it has been an everyone's basic requirement. In every country the benefits provided by the government were directly send to the users bank account. Living without banks isn't an easy thing, other than few exceptions like USA, Canada, Japan where it has got higher level of acceptance and accessibility.

Maybe with an user's self interest one can make his living only out of bitcoin or anything else without banks. But, here the user can get things or services little delayed and at times he's supposed to search and find it. This scenario will change in the future when more and more countries give legal support to cryptocurrency usage.
4020  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin Balance on Exchanges Reducing on: October 13, 2020, 07:46:30 AM
This chart indicates the rise in the number of people giving priority to bitcoin as an investment for long term than keeping it idle on exchange wallets. Maybe the increase in number of hacks on the exchanges also a reason for the large volume of funds getting moved to personal wallets from exchanges.

However with time the volume of funds in exchanges will have variation with regards to the price fluctuations. This also will have a variation on the data sheet.
