scam casino anyway, deposit 30eur in crypto, demand of kyc on withdrawal of small (100eur) winnings even though terms say verification not required for crypto players... stay away

Its important to read the fine print.  Their terms of service clearly state that they reserve the right to request KYC verification, even if your deposit or withdrawal is in crypto.  That means that they can ask for your personal information at any time.

We reserve the right to request appropriate documentation for account verification even for players using cryptocurrencies if we notice some irregularities regarding account, gameplay, similar accounts, fraudulent activities, abuse etc.

I get it, delays with getting your money back are so annoying.  But getting mad and cussing out the staff won't get it handled any quicker.  No need to make a bad situation worse - that kinda talk crosses the line into harassment turf.

According to the terms of use, the casino has the right to terminate your account due to such behavior.

There are multiple issues here. I'll point out some of them.

1- You seem to be the owner or part of the team because of the way you said "You can try this no kyc sportsbook/casino without hesitation, for any issues I can gladly help." How are you able to help if you are not part of the team? And if you are part of the team, you should have taken more time and posted a proper ANN about the casino and not a feedback kind of post.

2- You have red trust on your profile which is a massive problem when you are looking to promote a new casino.

3- No KYC is good but it also means the casino is probably not regulated. This again is a problem because the casino can run tomorrow without any issues.

4- Not a fan of the website layout. This though, is the least among the problems.

Well said!  Seems to me the only way to fully trust any casino not following standard regulations and rules.  Maybe if reputable folks vouched for it, that'd help.  but seeing that red label by the original poster's name made my eyebrows go up quick. and  Means theyve misled before, so this endorsement can't carry much weight.  I think you sized it all up rightly - sketchy claims from a sketchy source.  This casino ain't worth rolling the dice on not by a long shot.

Accepted  Wink
Finally ETF got  approved. I think this may not houx  Tongue
https://bitcoinmagazine.com/markets/spot-bitcoin-etfs-will-begin-trading-tomorrow-cboe

It is not approved yet, if the SEC approved bitcoin ETF, it will first appears from their official release and most reliable news media will take it up, so seing this alone is not convincing that they have made the approval, it may just be one of the ways people may try to use in raising fake alarms, to make the market price rise or change just to get something done for their own personal interest, but till date, no approval made yet.

What The F Are You On About?

The SEC has approved eleven new Bitcoin ETFs that are already listed on the NYSE Arca, Cboe BZX, and Nasdaq exchanges.

Yep! This time it looks for real!

It's strange that the market reacted more dramatically to the fake news yesterday than it did today. Traders appear to be more cautious now.  That was likely the intention of yesterday's "hack" of SEC's twitter account.

Well, in actual reality, crypto has failed to achieve anything besides being another financial instrument to invest in. I don't think there's anything wrong with that, but that's the reality.

What specific aspects do you think crypto failed to achieve? I use crypto payments on an almost daily basis. Wasn't that the primary purpose of Bitcoin? A global, decentralized payment network accessible to everyone. Why do you care if many people now view Bitcoin as a potential investment opportunity, if it still serves its primary purpose?

GMail is the first kind of "private", because it's absolutely private unless there is a court order.
Google is literally the privacy nightmare of Web2. You can probably keep your documents private from a family member or a friend, but in general? Google lives off your data.

Yes, absolutely Google itself lives off of your data in lots of ways, but they don't do anything with your actual emails. They work off of aggregated data. I don't discount the privacy concerns with them for a second (my company doesn't even use cookies at all for instance), but your actual emails aren't getting breached unless there's a court order.

I feel sorry for you if you really think that. These are the facts, though:

Quote
Google has been involved in multiple lawsuits over issues such as privacy, advertising, intellectual property and various Google services such as Google Books and YouTube. The company's legal department expanded from one to nearly 100 lawyers in the first five years of business, and by 2014 had grown to around 400 lawyers

Bad posting is a process and not an habit <...>

Well, I'm not sure I'd agree with that. You've been pumping out posts like crazy since signing up for that money-making campaign.  You started off with a modest 30+ posts a week, but before long you raced up to 100+ a week - all to get the biggest payout possible.  Its not a hobby now; it's a deliberate effort, a desperate try to make max money from your account.


source: https://ninjastic.space/user/borovichok

And I'm sorry to say, I scrolled through a couple of pages of your recent posts, and they're all nothing but low-quality drivel.  It's not about bad English or grammar - it is the lack of substance, the generic rambling that doesn't contribute anything.



But when it comes to this jvanname guy and all that "trading-related matters", I do think he's too risky to deal with.  His behavior within the community has been consistently antagonistic and disrespectful, and I believe that it justifies a negative trust rating.  Would you personally engage in a trade with him, knowing his history of hostile interactions with other forum members?

Probably I wouldn't deal with that stupid troll. I guess nobody would do any deal with this guy if they saw his post history. But this guy did not offer any service which could be the reason for that tag. I agree with what you have said except the guy deserves the negative feedback. If he had offered any service and behave like this, I would say ignore that troll and go on.

That troll is the owner (or developer) of a crypto project - Circcash. He actively promotes his services to the community, and any stakeholder of that shitcoin, whether an investor or miner, is indirectly in a financial relationship with him.  Moreover, he has made direct requests for financial contributions for his services in multiple posts:

I am not going to do anything for you until you pay me because you are stupid. And this is not a scam because you have requested my services before I told you that my services are not free. Pay me at https://github.com/sponsors/jvanname because I am not going to do anything for you otherwise.

Privacy? Bitcoin puts every transaction on a public ledger. That's about as [n]un[/b]private as you can get, IMHO.

Bitcoin's privacy features are often misunderstood. Sure, Bitcoin transactions go on some public ledger for the world to see.  But that don't automatically mean your identity is out there too.  Truth is, if you're careful and know how to use it, Bitcoin can still be pretty private.  The public ledger don't have anything that ties back to your real world identity.


GMail is the first kind of "private", because it's absolutely private unless there is a court order. In practical terms, most people probably consider their GMail messages as private as they need it to be.

Hahaha! Is that a joke? I would never use anything related to google and the word "private" in the same sentence.


Physical cash is still way, way more private than Bitcoin etc.

True, since Bitcoin is a digital currency that leaves a digital footprint after all.  But, by that logic, physical Bitcoin is way, way more private than physical cash.
430  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Your gambling life could affect your relatives lifes. on: January 09, 2024, 08:30:59 PM
When a person can't stop themselves from gambling, it becomes an addiction that takes over their life.  They lose all self-control and can't walk away, even when the consequences are piling up.  This dangerous spiral impacts not just the gambler, but their whole family and  it's why they say this addiction has ruined so many lives - once it sinks its hooks in the damage spreads.   

Ive seen good folks reduced to desperation after emptying their accounts in casinos or at online poker tables night after night.  They keep chasing that win, thinking this time will pay off all their debts from the last losses and then some.  Families torn apart, jobs lost, hopes dashed - it's a sad story that plays out again and again. 

So if you ever feel that itch to risk it all for a big payout walk away.  Enjoy a little entertainment now and then, but don't get pulled into the vortex.  Your people need you, probably more than you know.  Don't let them down.
431  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Help me understand sending transactions privately between my own wallets on: January 09, 2024, 08:22:24 PM
Well, it kinda depends on what type of privacy we're discussing here.  Do you simply wanna disrupt the money trail between wallet A and wallet B? Or do you aim to obfuscate where the money in your wallet came from? Maybe you wanna hide your true IP address when making these transactions? Is Big Brother or some shady outfit tracking your moves? You gotta figure out what specific privacy matters most so you can take the right steps to protect it.  

Like if hiding your IP is crucial, you'd likely wanna route your traffic through Tor or a trustworthy VPN.  If your main aim is to confuse the transaction path, using a mixer service or Coinjoin could scramble things up.  And if total anonymity is essential perhaps a privacy-focused coin like Monero is the way to go.  Point is, defining the threat first allows you to counter it best.
432  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How often do you win? on: January 09, 2024, 08:02:09 PM
I get it, OP.  When you see some hotshot making bank betting on games, it's tempting to wanna ride their coattails.  But take it from me, borrowing their strats is playing with fire.  It don't matter how long their winning streak is Lady Luck can turn on anyone. 

And I know its not what you wanna hear, but it doesn't matter whose advice you take - you never know when youll hit a cold streak.  I've seen it happen too many times.  Folks end up busted and broken chasing that next big score.

So do yourself a favor - bet with your head, not your heart.  This game ain't one you can control.  But the stakes? Those you can.
433  Economy / Reputation / Re: Would you tag these users? on: January 09, 2024, 07:29:36 PM
Personally, I think he deserves much more than just a negative tag, but unfortunately the forum mods still tolerate it.
You are a veteran member of this forum. Trolling is not allowed according to the forum rules and you know this. So, if moderators give him a pass, why do you bother? It's clearly mentioned that negative feedback should be for trading-related matters. We know that you guys use it for other purposes as well. But, seeing negative feedback for every other reason making it worth less. It seems like everyone deserves negative feedback these days. DT members leaving negative feedback left and right, everywhere. It seems it's nothing.

I get what you're saying, but I gotta disagree.  The way I see it, theymos set up reputation system outside of forum moderation constraints, so things could be as democratic as possible.  Like in a regular democracy where anyone can vote, you know?  So if you disagree with someone's feedback, you can simply exclude them from your trust list.  And that's it. 

But when it comes to this jvanname guy and all that "trading-related matters", I do think he's too risky to deal with.  His behavior within the community has been consistently antagonistic and disrespectful, and I believe that it justifies a negative trust rating.  Would you personally engage in a trade with him, knowing his history of hostile interactions with other forum members?
434  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What casino has the best bonuses? on: January 08, 2024, 09:30:48 PM
Comparing bonuses between online casinos can get complicated quick.  There's a whole slew of terms and conditions to parse through - wagering requirements, eligible games, time limits.  It ain't exactly apples to apples.  The size of the bonus is important, but so are those nitty gritty details.  Some places try to hook you with a big headline number then make it tough to actually cash out.  Others keep the bonuses smaller but easier to access and  depends if you want one big payout or steadier little boosts.  And different games count different amounts towards unlocking the bonus money.  Plus every casino structures their rewards program differently - some do big upfront bonuses others focus more on cashback or rebates to keep you loyal. 

You gotta decide what's gonna work best for your bankroll and playing style.  Take the time to read the fine print before chasing the biggest bonus.  There's no one-size-fits-all answer here - the best bonus is the one that lines up with how and what you wanna play.
435  Economy / Reputation / Re: Timelord2067, can you clarify please before I post a flag on you? on: January 08, 2024, 09:00:07 PM
Yes he currently does not get paid for posting (or in his specific case for spamming or spouting nonsense). The chances are he will not get in to another campaign unless a certain campaign manager that no longer has mixers to promote allows him to join a different campaign. If that campaign manager had not allowed him to participate in a mixer campaign he would have disappeared but he will float around for a short while more before he finally gives up on the "digaran" account.

If my memory serves me right, that same manager had some "issues" accepting participants with neutral tags on their profiles. Negatively tagged trolls are fine apparently.


Do you consider yourself a hero? At least here, right? Grin

Do you think maybe he's compensating for something?  Cheesy
436  Economy / Reputation / Re: Would you tag these users? on: January 08, 2024, 08:20:26 PM
For tjtonmoy, at first  i'd say that a year ago is a little far due to the time, I would only use it as part of the tag reason if he continues nefarious activities and use it as one of the reasons within the comment box. Maybe a neutral tag as a notice to others would fit better, simply because it has been a while and people can change.
In this case, since he has been exposed for cheating in the pumpkin contest which proves that he is continuing breaking forum rules I would say it's fair to provide both reasons to tag, which is what JollyGood has already done.

I believe the new tag is probably fueled by his recent controversies (first a non-collateral loan request, then begging for donations and lying about a hacked account).

Jvanname, well it's just needless to say he does deserve the tag. Personally I wouldn't though unless he was attacking me consistently.

Jvanname is a troll toxic to the entire community, a mental case that calls out that we should all suffer and die a horrible death.  Here's a quote: https://ninjastic.space/post/62933000

Personally, I think he deserves much more than just a negative tag, but unfortunately the forum mods still tolerate it.
437  Economy / Reputation / Re: Would you tag these users? on: January 08, 2024, 07:36:23 PM
Using AI shouldn't necessarily get the red tag in my view - maybe a neutral one just to give heads up is better. But I am not closely familiar with Borovichok's case, so I don't know if there is something more to it that warrants the negative.

As for the other three, I think the negative tags are deserved. All three are obvious trade risks at the moment. Although in the case of Symmetrick it doesn't matter anymore. I left him positive because he helped me recover my money from the scam mixer, and I don't want to remove the tag now since that fact remains true. However, I wouldn't trust him again due to the suspicion that the account has changed hands.
438  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Anyone here who retired with Gambling winnings ? on: January 06, 2024, 07:15:24 PM
I always thought gambling was an incredibly risky business to try to live off of winnings from. But my friend psychologist recently told me that the idea that the desire to make money in gambling and live on this money can be a dangerous outlook on life.

You could have just asked me. I would have saved you a few bucks on your psychologist friend's overpriced therapy sessions. Grin

Therefore, you cannot retire because of gambling winnings.

I disagree. There's always that small chance of winning. Let's take the lottery, for instance. While most players don't win anything significant, there are always those few fortunate individuals who strike it rich by winning a life-changing jackpot every now and then. So, you cant just say that no one can retire with gambling winnings.
439  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Anyone here who retired with Gambling winnings ? on: January 06, 2024, 12:06:48 PM
Anyone here who retired with Gambling winnings ?  If not, how much you think is sufficient to retire as Gambling winning ?

From what I understand, there's been a few FreeBitco.in lottery winners who've claimed the grand prize Lambo, and are active members on the forum.  A $200k ride sure sounds nice! I suppose whether that kind of cash is retire early money depends on your situation and where you call home and  to me, livin' easy is less about dollar amounts and more about freedom.  If your basic needs are met and you've got no one relyin' on your paychecks, guess you can let the 9 to 5 go and make your own adventures.  But I know folks get by on more or less in different corners of the world.
440  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Using QR codes as Bitcoin address protection on: January 06, 2024, 11:47:57 AM
I agree. QR codes can make sending bitcoin way more convenient than typing out those long addresses.  Especially while using hardware and mobile wallets that can scan QR codes. But there's some risk with QR codes getting swapped out or changed before you scan them.  While I don't know if such malware already exists, like clipboard malware, it's only a matter of time before hackers develop such a tool. So you gotta be real careful.
