421  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season on: March 16, 2023, 07:09:48 AM
Below is the list of clubs that qualified for the next round of Champions league:

Bayern Munich
Real Madrid
Benfica
Man City
Chelsea
AC Milan
Inter
Napoli

Among these clubs I rate
Bayern Munich
Real Madrid
Manchester city
Napoli
As the strong contenders.
I agreed about your list for the last four, but I want to do one change as I have feeling Bayern Munich is not going to win this time with Real Madrid is surely after impressive win against Liverpool favorite team for the title and Manchester City is also good with their performance is also giving them good advantage for their first title into Champions League for me third team is Napoli which is amazing in this season and can give surprise for having spot into final and Bayern Munich is at fourth because they are surely had problems and their performance is also not as their standard.

AC Milan and Chelsea are also good sides, but now their chances are also not good because both teams are struggling badly in their domestic leagues, which is also not good signs for their chances in this season for title here.
422  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: March 15, 2023, 09:29:25 PM
Even if Napoli loses 6 games which is extremely highly unlikely based on their performance,who do you think can win 6 consecutive games,Milan that drew at home against Salernitana or Inter that lost against Spezia and drew with Sampdoria in the bottom of the table or Roma who lost at home against Sassuolo,there is simply no other team that is capable of showing the consistency that Napoli had this season so far and I doubt they will stop having it out of nowhere.That is why we already know that they are going to be the Champions of Serie A this year and this has no discussion at all about but they are also playing very well so far even in the Champions League.
I agreed with you about title race is almost over with Napoli is going to enjoy without any problem, no other team is having consistency which can give them tough challenge for the title as we already have poor results from all other teams which are currently fighting hard for the spot into top four.

Just Juventus was good for having some competition but 15 points deduction give them big setback, and now they are also fighting hard for the top six spot which is possible due to their recent form AS Roma and Inter were also good, but their recent form is surely giving no chance for having any chance to go near side of leaders Napoli, AC Milan is also suffering badly and have poor results and tough challenge for their top four chance as well.

Web 3.0 is definitely goin to create several cores of centralisation, as well as its crypto part. Thats why it happens. Any service introduced to the market tends to monopolize and become uniformed, so web 3.0 casino is just a kind of ad campaign in order to creators to take part in gambling market.
A perfectly accurate remark about monopolization. 

Now many of our colleagues and lovers of cryptocurrencies and fans of talking about the decentralization of the Internet love to talk about how great and free it will be when web3.0 covers the entire planet!  And everyone will be happy.  However, I also think that this concept has much more advertising and real decentralization, even having been born sometime, at some point it will still be controlled by some specific people or groups of people over time. 
This is an inevitable process and no one can stop monopolization. 
So web3.0, in my opinion, is also just a cleverly invented publicity stunt for too naive Internet users.
Web3 or Web 3.0 is only just a concept so far, and there haven't really been any actual use cases of it or any developments going on with it. Any platform or project that says they are utilizing web 3.0 for its services is simply lying about it. They are just riding with the tide since web 3.0 and metaverse are some of the most hyped trends of today.

We will have to wait and see once the technology is actually live and being used around and then only we can decide how much decentralization it actually has and how centrally controlled it is just like the second generation of the web which is called Web 2.0.

Most people already knew what is stated in the TOS, yet they still choose to break it because they want to take advantage of the promotions and bonuses. This is common and rampant in sign up bonuses and free spins wherein players create multiple accounts just to get those perks for newbies when they aren't newbies and it's already stated that it is prohibited to create multiple accounts. Sometimes, the people who even rant are those offenders. Which is really courageous of them since they had the guts to even complain of the suspension or banning of their accounts, knowing it to themselves they did unusual activities which lead to their account being compromised.


To cut it short, some people are not ignorant or stupid, rather they just want to make the most out of something they saw worth profiting.
Those people that think no one would know that they've violated the terms and conditions and still start a rant only to take advantage of the fact that their accounts were banned or funds confiscated are basically unethical. They know that they are wrong but they won't admit it and keep trying to get something that doesn't even belong to them in the first place.

They are not ignorant, but they do it with the purpose of maybe getting out clean and get the bonuses that they tried to cheat and have, little they know is that the platform has all their records.
425  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Saudi Professional League 2022/2023 on: March 15, 2023, 06:49:39 PM
I was saying that the Saudi Professional League is now very popular across the globe. It was Slow death who tried to downplay the Arabian leagues. I still would not go to the extent to say that Saudi Professional League is the most popular football league in the world. But they do rank among the top-10 leagues. And it is not just the presence of Ronaldo. A number of quality overseas players are participating in this league and there are rumors that some of the big names in Europe and South America are considering moving to the SPL.
Right now, we have mess-up here in Gulf which is surely having impact on their sports as well but for me Cristiano Ronaldo transfer is going to be big game changer for them because in near future we are going to have many other transfers like these which will increase quality and maturity as well which is good for these sports.

Arabs can invest huge funds and also can change things, but surely it's not going to happen in few years this all need long time which will help them with in few other Gulf countries soccer is having good quality and change which is good for them before Ronaldo we have few big names in this region like Barcelona current coach Xavi was also coach in Qatar club which is also good now Saudi Arab is also in process for having bid for the world cup host rights with few other countries if we have this it's going to be amazing stuff for this region and for the development of this game as well here.
426  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: About Rapid Wealth Accumulation on: March 15, 2023, 06:05:10 PM
the point is to try to work hard if you want to be rich, don't care about the results for the first thing. because everything is not instant. it's useless if you want to get rich quick but there is no effort from each of us. crypto is very broad and there are lots of fields of free money as long as you work, diligently, discipline can produce and don't give up easily
Work? But, they say that no one gets rich from working alone but that may be true because usually when we are working we are only paid a fixed salary. Then we have lots of bills to pay and buy other necessities in life. It's hard to save up and be rich this way. On the other hand if you will do business, you can earn unlimited income but it wasn't easy as it sounds.

One must need a good capital, and they must also be knowledgeable on the business that they want to venture. I wouldn't say that to be rich quick is useless. How come when you already have loads of money? But the feeling will still be different if we gain our wealth in a long and hard way. Also, we will value every penny that we spend and our wealth won't be depleted easily.
427  Economy / Speculation / Re: The bitcoin pump on March 12 on: March 14, 2023, 08:12:59 PM
And with this big news, the next question is what will be the next number for us?

Obviously it will be $25k, but so far it's not "enough" pump, I guess the initial surge of buyers are just enough though to restore where we are prior to some of the negative news around the market. And so everything is green now, and thanks to the good news coming from the US government.

USDC though is below, but close to $1.00 now.
As of now, the price of Bitcoin is hovering on the $25k zone. The next target is going to be $28k if the momentum stays the same. Apart from the help of the US government, I think what help the price the most to reach this high is the buyers. They are buying massively last time by the time we drop below $20k. That was just initial as you think but I don't think there will be a follow-up anymore now that everything is in green again.

USDC coin on the other hand is now valued at $0.9993 from the former $0.8xx. that's a big difference there. This only shows that the people behind the coin are willing to do what they can, only to prove that their coin is not like those past stable coins.
428  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A remark on casino bonuses on: March 14, 2023, 02:39:04 PM
most of them are also novice gamblers trying to cheat the bonuses provided and they are caught then all the money and accounts are frozen, it all starts with promotions wrapped up by marketing so gamblers come who take advantage of opportunities and cheat to get a lot of money, but in the end they lose a lot of money in trap because everything is frozen, it's sad  Cheesy
what's even sadder is that when beginners try to take advantage of bonuses using multiple accounts and in the end they are detected by the system and have their funds frozen, they are still doing this at other casinos. even though they know that it has violated the rules and if detected they will lose their funds again.

so sometimes it's very stupid for someone to take advantage of a bonus that ends up being frozen but still repeats mistakes at other casinos like committing suicide several times.
No, we don't need to feel sad or bad about them because what they are doing there is not good anyway and I am sure they already know it to themselves even if they are a newbie and yet they still have the courage to continue. They think they are smarter than these casinos lying around but they did not know that the casinos already expected these things to happen so they already prepared different security measures in order to detect such kind of activity.

I don't think this was a like a suicide because they have nothing to risk here. They are not doing a KYC and they are no way of depositing their money. They are wise too despite of being a newbie.
429  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Suggest a promising project at an early stage? on: March 14, 2023, 06:40:24 AM
Project which are in initial phase do not have any further information that will it be possible to process or will end up one day. Some projects provides benefits at the start but later they become useless and they do not pay users as such as they hopes. So I think that you should involved in well known projects that provided profit to its users for several years. If you want to get involved in new projects then I will suggest that use at least few dollars and do not trust it easily as we cannot believe that it will always be worthy.
Of course they have it. Do you know the thing called road map? It has plans on it and as well as dates if when will those plans be deployed. If you are referring to know if the project will end up successful in the future or not, I think there is no such thing as that.

There is no way that we can see the future and if only it's possible, we can easily dodge the weak projects and gather all the potential ones but anyway we still have resources to possibly predict if the project will at least run good for a while or not. They can be the whitepaper, tokenomics and the one I mentioned earlier which is the roadmap but there might be more than these.
430  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: My $300 bet won $417,000 on: March 14, 2023, 04:42:33 AM
when I mention that trading and gambling have crossovers and similarities I'm not saying they're the same thing
they're definitely different
you can approach gambling with strategy and you can surf luck weaves in trading
I agree that gambling has a wider reach of audience than trading that is for few (few people will be able to master it)

not even sure if it makes sense to thing about "mastering gambling"
Yes, we are not a kid anymore to not know their differences. The reason why gambling has a wider audience than in trading is because it is much easier to do. Earning a profit in gambling is optional but the main goal here is to enjoy but for trading, the main goal there is to make a profit.

You cannot experience fun there even if you will trade the random way and if you will lose, all what you will get is pure disappointment. It does make sense to think about mastering gambling because there are games here which are based on skills and experience. A good example of it would be poker. There are professional poker players. These people already master it.
431  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Crypto related jobs on: March 13, 2023, 07:26:26 PM
My friend works in tech support of a crypto wallet and receives a salary fully in crypto. I think that's a job a lot of us can apply to because we know how blockchain and crypto basically work, you just need to learn the details.
That's not surprising at all due to the nature of his/her job but I don't think that all of us are qualified there. A tech support could be a hard and pressured job which some of us can't handle easily. A basic knowledge in crypto and in blockchain may not be enough but you need an extensive one which are only possible if you truly have a passion on this field and not just someone who want's to earn a quick buck through investing and trading.

There are still easy jobs there that an average individual can apply for. What important is that apply only for a job that gets your interest so that you won't feel like you are working or you won't feel obligated of doing it.
432  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What tool do you recommend for recording slot and live games for disputes? on: March 13, 2023, 06:21:19 PM
Maybe you can use your cell phone to record your gambling activities to send evidence of the tape to the casino or other places to prove that cheating occurred during the gambling game. And this can explain what you mean to them so they can investigate right away. I think there are many names for apps on mobile that can record directly. Once I heard about AZ recorder apps but did not know how to use them.

I've never done it because I don't think that a trusted casino would do things like that. Or even if the casino commits fraud, I don't think it will be easy for us to prove it if there is no strong evidence to show that the casino did it.
I think some slot games has a built-in recorder on them and once you finish playing the game you can watch your replay but if that can't capture the bug or the issue that we are facing, it would be better to record them using a dedicated recorder. If we are using a phone, we might have an in-built recorder but some phones might not get a good quality on using this recorder and sometimes they can't include a sound.

For this we can use the one that you recommend which was the AZ recorder. When it comes to pc or laptop, I only tried one recorder so far and that would be the OBS studio. This wasn't user/newbie friendly but I managed to record my game live on Facebook the first time I use it. There are lots of tutorials on Youtube that can help you configure this thing.
433  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sports arbitrage on: March 12, 2023, 08:48:02 PM
To make your job effective, it requires a tool. If you have none, then don't try to get serious with arbitrage betting. Although many believe that sports arbitrage is the best way to make money in sports betting, there are actually only a few who have succeeded in this, leaving the rest to be just normal bettors who rely on self-analysis and take risks on their bets.

The job is quite interesting because there's zero risk, but it's important to ask yourself if you're capable of doing it.
What kind of tool are you referring to? Are there also tools that can be used to evaluate bets on different bookies? If so, that would definitely make the work easier for those who are willing to do arbitrage betting. I also think that though it is difficult and time-consuming, anyone with dedication and a will can do it.

All it requires from a person is that they evaluate different bookies for the odds for the same matches, research whether the bookies are authentic and paying, and place their bets with whatever amount they wish to use.
434  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Is for the strong. on: March 12, 2023, 06:46:51 PM
That is addiction which is created when a person cannot really think of a side project or business like your friend only when he saw that he had lost that huge amount of money started to think about.I was in such situation in the 2020-2021 as I only cared to hit the spin button on slot machines not caring much what was happening to me and this was exactly as I had no side hobby,every money I made from mining I lost it in slot machines in different casinos.Luckily in 2022 I searched about this option of staking coins to get additional passive income as this was what I was trying to do in the slot machines,trying to hit a jackpot to improve my way of living which is a wrong approach.Since I found that I can stake different coins I keep doing it and every time I got some urge to gamble I deposit in my wallet where I stake coins and add the number of staked coins so I can make more money passively.

Trust me as I have been betting from a long time,it is better to get assured income rather than waiting for that big win.
Many of us here doesn't even have a business or a side project but no we didn't became an addict. It's only up to our control plus each of us must have other things to do in our life. By doing them, we are not heavily exposed in gambling and reduces our chance of becoming an addict to it.

When we gamble, we are actually aware of what we are doing but we only got carried away of that small wins we are getting and in our minds, we said that need to continue to able to find a bigger win. Add in the eye catching graphics and the nice sounds of that slot machines which make it almost impossible to stop playing on them but one is only forced to stop once they have no more in their balance.

It's great that you came back on the right path. Your idea of diverting your attention to staking is nice but you shouldn't be guilty to gamble small. Just practice a self control and you will soon enjoy gambling without problems like the rest of us.
435  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is launching a new project during bear market a good idea?? 🤔 on: March 11, 2023, 09:00:54 PM
I do like to hear more from experience investor like you. Perhaps you can have a look on our project on our Twitter, or read more information from here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5441307.0 . Would like to hear more about your do's & don'ts.
This is our official website to mint our first product PID. https://app.firedao.co/
I would love to, but about your web page...
Most of the links don't work so i am not getting a full picture on what are you trying to accomplish. The whitepaper link in your homepage doesn't work either, which most definitely should be available for before minting would be an option. I don't have a clue what benefits i would have by being a preliminary member or what kind of adoption you are aiming at.

Just assuming that would want to jump on a bandwagon and mint anything without knowing what i am getting into is sadly a red flag for me. I'll get back to you after i get change to read the whitepaper.
There is one clickable link called firepassport but the other two is not yet available. It says coming soon. You need to click on the firepassport one and you will be redirected to another page which contains a lot of features and information.

I think there is also information on the bitcointalk link that he gave there above. You can just go on there directly. We must of course read the details about the project if what they are used for and not just mint the NFT straight away because you can only lose your money this way and you may not get anything in return in the future because this project may not be useful and they can not attract more people to invest on their project.
436  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A remark on casino bonuses on: March 11, 2023, 06:54:58 PM
I think it's our job to check out the terms and conditions.
All they did was redirect you to their website and some of it is injected with referral links so that when you bet, they will have a percentage of it.

Most gambling sites today don't really need you to sign up first. You can check out their website and freely roam around although there are some restricted parts because you are still a guest. Regarding bonuses, they have Telegram or Discord pages now so you can just ask them directly if they are offering whatever bonus you prefer. i.e. Deposit bonus.
   -    You are right in what you said, and I can only add, the decision whether or not to join a casino is always up to us, we are under no obligation to immediately create an account on their platform.

That's why others always say here in the forum that we should learn to research a crypto gambling before we start playing gambling here so that we won't blame anyone else for what we decide.
Someone can just immediately create an account right after seeing those enticing offers but if it's me I will have a doubt on it. Like they say that when something is too good to be true, chances are that it was not really true or there are hidden terms/conditions about it. This makes me not to sign up on them because I will just waste my time there or possibly money.

There are lots of good gambling sites lying around the first page of the gambling board but if you can't find any that catches your attention, that would be the time to do your own research. It can be outside this forum but it was your own responsibility now whatever happened to you or to your funds.
437  Economy / Economics / Re: War: who benefits and how! on: March 11, 2023, 08:58:22 AM
In fact, it is certain that whoever is in war will not benefit, it is certain that he will experience losses that will be prolonged and will disrupt the country's economy. winning or losing is the same as losing, because everything is sacrificed for the sake of the ego of the war, which will obviously have an impact on all existing activities.
completely agree that from the war the beneficiaries are those who make things worse by providing weapons and if they need more they have to pay and not yet with the need for food and clothing.
so war really doesn't have a good effect, so avoid war as long as the peace door can still be run.
for me, war is the same as economics, government officials have of course calculated the gains and losses from the war, they issued capital in the form of weapons and soldiers, of course the next government must have more profit than that, maybe it can be in the form of a supply of resources nature or something. but the war made civilians especially suffer, even to the loss of their brethren. especially for colonized countries, of course, more suffering will be felt
You mean to say part of the economic issue? Governments can sometimes prepare a weapon in case there is an unexpected war that will spark. Some like Russia are doing it for the gain and maybe you are right that they already have done some calculations. Capital or money is issued on different things but if they can sell weapons and supply soldiers, they still can get money out of it.

Wars are devastating to the country's economy and mostly innocent people are affected with it. That is why many of us are against it and we hate those selfish governments who can only think about their selves. They can be punished thru sanctions but we people are still affected with it.
438  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Too late to start? on: March 11, 2023, 08:16:21 AM
If you heard about Bitcoin in 2017, you're too late. Those who have joined this forum since 2017 have achieved a lot in their life. Your idea of ​​an epidemic was completely wrong. But I mean if you want to invest you can invest. Now is the right time to invest. You can analyze about Bitcoin and see that at one time Bitcoin reached a maximum of $69k, but now the price of Bitcoin is 21600 dollars. That's why I want to tell you that if you want to invest, there is still a good time for you to invest.
No, please do not say that. We don't want to discourage anyone here. 2017 was an early year for Bitcoin because this is where it starts to pump at almost $20k (the highest price so far compared to other previous years). We don't know our future. Some of us might have achieved a lot but there is a chance that we can lose it all but for those who doesn't have anything or have only started today, can have a better life than us later on.

$69k was the current highest price of Bitcoin but it doesn't stop there. If someone can't invest today, they always have another chance of doing it next time and there are reasons for it. What if they don't have a budget right now?
439  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: which cryptocurrency do you prefer the most to accept payments in? on: March 10, 2023, 09:22:50 PM
There are more than 12000 cryptocurrencies like bitcoin, altcoin, litecoin, dogecoin, etherium and so on. We all have our favorite cryptocurrency. Among all of these, which cryptocurrency do you trust and prefer the most to accept payments? Share your thoughts about it.
couple of years back it was 6000+ cryptocurrencies now 12000? But bitcoin still dominating the market over 50% which is really showing what is preferred among the crypto community either for payment or holding.

Bitcoin is almost perfect now since the implementation of lightning network so its cheap and instant which is required to be accepted as means of payment so I don't find other coins required to me atleast only for me.
Surprising isn't it? It just shows that cryptos have come a long way but we must not be really proud of it since most of these coins are just junks and only going to take away the money of the investors. There's no need to question the dominance of BTC because it was the first crypto and without it, there will be no other cryptos.

Lightning network can work better compared to any other altcoins but I think the support of it up until now is still low therefore people are still being forced to use bitcoin and other alternative cryptos. If we are a business owner we can still promote lightning network on it or this will be the one that will be using when sending money to our loved ones.

Haha, dear, you heard and you are now pretty confident to invest, so understand first this is a risky investment market but BTC is considered as much more reliable as compared to shit and altcoins. Carefully study first and then wait patiently.
Indeed it's funny when someone sees Bitcoin as get rich quick scheme. Someone already told it or they saw it online without verifying if those things are true or not but they just jump here immediately. I doubt many people can make millions in Bitcoin because it just takes a long time for the Bitcoin price to rise and people will mostly sell before they see it.

As much as they want a profit, these people must understand the underlying risk in Bitcoin because it is highly unstable and it can dumped a lot of times. I wouldn't say it's reliable because of it this but it is much better compared to the shitcoin and some altcoins for some reasons.
