4321  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What kind of project we shall look into to prepare for the next bull?? on: March 11, 2023, 10:19:14 AM
In my previous topic, I'm wondering about is launching project during the bear market a good idea? Currently the market is so bearish that most of the investors are not taking much action. But we always have to be sensitive to the market to prepare for the next bull.

So, what kind of project will be more benefited in the next bull??

According to many pseudo crypto experts some of the top are now Flux,Kava,Casper,Oasis and Zilliqa.These are coins that many from such persons that call themselves crypto experts argue that these coins have a market cap value of under 400 Million and have a lot of potential for upside because of this market cap.

Personally from these 5 I only own Zilliqa and I have full belief in the project and on top of that you can also earn additional passive income up to 15% yearly by just staking it.

Here is a link leading to this news

4322  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will Gambling Legalization Reduce Gambling Rings? on: March 11, 2023, 09:34:59 AM
Gambling rings are high-risk and high-reward operations that take advantage of market demand and turn it in their favor. Their modus operandi thrives on secrecy and they are involved in organizing all sorts of gambling games - slots, poker, blackjack, sports bet etc.Although the law enforcement agencies are doing their best, it is still a lot of work trying to crackdown on these rings. Gambling rings are illegal and people who are caught may either pay a huge fine or serve jail time.

I want to believe that so many people who patronize these gambling rings may have lost a lot of money or scammed and there is nothing they can do about it. And one of the reasons why people may even choose to patronize these gambling rings aside the high rewards is because gambling is banned in their society.

However I am thinking that if gambling is legalized, we would see a drastic reduction (not total elimination) in the operations of these rings. My reasons are that their activities will be carried out in a fair and transparent manner such that cases of frauds and scams will be eliminated as there will be proper mechanisms in place to prevent and protect the gamblers.

Do you think that there is a role that gambling legalization will play in reducing the activities of gambling rings?

First of all there is no real need to go in these illegal gambling rings as in Internet now there is an opportunity for anyone who wants to play and with crypto this is even easier.I have heard a lot of bad things about these illegal rings and no I am not talking about being scammed as that is mainstream in these rings,I have even seen stories of people who had kill one person who kept winning at poker so these are truly dangerous and legalizing the gambling will not help much as these rings entice users by offering higher rewards than normal casinos.

It is user and gambler awareness that should be the real medicine for people to stop going to such places and risk their lives there.
4323  Economy / Economics / Re: War: who benefits and how! on: March 11, 2023, 09:12:00 AM
Frankly, the US is the cause of this war, and they are the party that is receiving a lot of orders to buy weapons from allies in the world, so it can be said that the US is the most beneficial party. Besides, because of the war, the world fell into an economic crisis, also when they exported inflation to the countries that were their debtors.

I think that you maybe partly right.However we are in the brink of another economic collapse,similar to that of Lehman Brothers in 2008 as the main banks are all over the news now and their failures with Silicon Valley Bank being one heavily seen in the news in the Internet right now but not only that,even Barclays.So war can never bring anything positive no matter who is winning and who is losing,even if US is getting more orders to sell weapons how do you explain that most likely we are going to see a recession soon starting from the very US country which of course I don't wish but things are looking exactly that way,so there are no real winners in a war.
4324  Economy / Economics / Re: Money and education on: March 11, 2023, 08:43:47 AM
Money and education which one of these is advisable to achieve?
They constantly say education is the key to success but in my country today many graduates don't have a job, and most of them are still fed by their parents, and that's not the way it's supposed to be.
And again they also said money is potency and fondness. Yes, money is power even if you are not a graduate or you haven't been to college before and you have the money you can even employ a graduate to work for you.
Presently now in my wonderful fatherland NIGERIA 🇳🇬 I can see the power of money.
Please any advice?

They say in the country where I live in that when you have money you don't need graduation diplomas as they joke around and say when you have money,the money says to the person who has it,you are the most smart,the most beautiful and the most trendy person on earth.This to illustrate that money can give someone a lot of power and benefits but there has to be a limit.By the limit I mean that money can become a disease if you become obsessed with it,with how to keep multiplying it and my own boss does not sleep at night because of this disease and is even becoming ill with heart problems,so money is great when you know to manage it in a great way and to manage it in a great way you need education,so education in the end for me is more important.
4325  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / ETHW vs ETC mining related questions for clarity on: March 11, 2023, 08:28:01 AM
So now we are all in a downside in all the cryptos generally speaking as I think this is because except Banks in Europe,in US,Japan and England they have all shown signs of disaster nearly to that of the Lehman Brother crisis in 2008 and they are all down to at least 5.6% which is a grave indicator.

Now back to the title of the thread,many people are mining ETC which the price is 16.6 dollars right now and just a 100 Mhsh gives you about 0.014 approximately in rewards daily while this same Mhsh gives you almost 0.08 ETHW in rewards daily and the price of ETHW is 3.12 dollars right now.So why do people mine more ETC which I think has a more limited upside in the next bull run compared to ETHW and it is much more difficult to mine ETC compared to ETHW,I am not seeing the catch and don't tell me ETC is better as both coins have had security breaches before.
4326  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Conference League 2022/23 Season on: March 11, 2023, 08:05:24 AM
West ham are always looking strong in this particular stage of the competition, last year west ham also did well and am just a bit confuse how they tend to perform very well during their European competition but when it comes down to their league match there are a  bit shaky. With their current match score at two nil I feel they need to do less as they look set and ready for the next round because I believed they will certainly win the second leg match at their home stadium.
In the match statistics, Aek seems to have entered the positions, but as a result of the match, West Ham, which has Premier league experience, managed to win the score 2-0 in their favor.  West Ham is one of the major favorites for the cup.  They need to win the match in England differently, with plenty of goals.

They even have the luxury of getting a 0-0 or even losing 0-1 at London,of course this last result extremely highly unlikely but they can do it.I think that West Ham will not be very motivated and go the extra mile in London and I think based on the difference in quality between the leagues which is really gigantic I don't see Aek putting a lot of pressure on West Ham at London,sure they have got nothing to lose but they simply lack the power to attack a Premier League team.

Villareal surprised me with 1-1 result as they could have closed the qualification already in the first leg and now they will close it in the return leg which can be somewhat dangerous.
4327  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: March 11, 2023, 07:07:32 AM
It is funny how Inter is using these last games to just play around and burn everyone tickets who have bet on them,me included  Grin.That is why it is really bad when a team like Napoli goes forward a lot of points and the other teams then play for nothing as most likely Inter will be in the Champions League spots until the end of this tournament.I think they made a courtesy to Spezia as the 3 points for them were crucial to get out of the relegation zone so now Inter has one favor from them when for example Inter will be fighting for the Serie A so in these remaining games it is all about courtesies for the teams who can afford to do so.
4328  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you still hunt for airdrops? on: March 10, 2023, 09:13:36 PM
Almost all airdrop videos on YouTube are all scams, do not try hunting for airdrops using YouTube videos, those airdrops links in Youtube videos are all fake links and once you connect your wallet your tokens will be wiped out.

Find the project team or the o projects official telegram group and ask them if they are doing any airdrops or giveaways, this is the perfect way to expose or know the truth about any airdrop campaign.

Let's be careful what we connect our crypto wallets to.

The only airdrop I wanted was for EthereumPOW when it came online but I forgot and I couldn't get much of it because I had some ETH in my wallet and wanted some ETHW when the fork happened but I missed,it was basically free money as the beginning the price of ETHW was over 100 dollars so that was a quick buck for me that I missed.

I only got curious about airdrops after seeing an address which had collected a huge amount of ETH and that address had gotten much of it from airdrops since the beginning and that is why I was looking for such things myself.

However all airdrops you point out are most likely scam and I would stay away from them.
4329  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do you think about stop gambling services issued by gambling platforms? on: March 10, 2023, 07:08:19 PM
I often see gamblers who are addicted and he can't get rid of the addiction, so the gambler sells what he has to gamble. I am well aware of the dangers of gambling addiction because what is meant by that is gambling, which they do is no longer for pleasure but for the sake of victory and greed and for some people they cannot control their gambling.
In this case is it possible for gambling platforms to provide stop gambling services to help gamblers reduce their desire to gamble, as in the context of cigarettes, every tobacco company always provides smoking cessation services either by telephone, clients who want to quit smoking can be given counseling and guidance, as well as referrals if you need follow up.
I think how if the Platform/gambling company has a stop gambling service that is very good and helps gamblers who want to stop.
I know this will backfire on the gambling platform, but in retrospect, if this is implemented, it is a so wise move.

What do you think about this?

I think what most well reputable casinos do is more than enough,they offer a self exclusion service so any person who feels the gambling addiction is starting to get him he opt for self exclusion from the casino for a couple of days,for a week,for a month and for 3 months the maximum I believe I have seen.That is the best I think for any gambler who wants to stop gambling for some time,they click on self exclusion and try and see for a few days,if they can't think of anything else except when the time will come that the self exclusion period ends and want to get back in gambling then this is sign he should ask for professional help,as easy as that,no need in my opinion to implement anything else beside this self exclusion service.

Everybody talking about max win at Pragmatic Play and we have seen several times in this thread that they give the max win more often than other providers I have to admit that but their volatility is freakin super extra high  Grin,as I never won a max win there despite trying several times.

Are other providers giving the max win as often as Pragmatic Play does or is me that keep hitting empty promises at Play n Go where I got x2000,x3000 and lately x1700 at their Arturian Legends themed slot machines and never once the max win.Beside Pragmatic Play which is the next best provider that gives the max win from No Limit City,Hacksaw Gaming and Play n Go?

After my wooden spoon 🥄 moment from the Bahrain Grand Prix, clearly this was a sign I had quite a lot going on at the moment and didnt have my head in the game , &  unfortunately will be sitting this one out, thanks for the opportunity team motorsport. All the best to all.



Well everyone is free to decide for his own and take on the consequences thereafter.I won't judge you,anyone has his own reasons but you leave a bad taste here as it looks that now that you saw that you could not do well in the first race you are retiring.While you are enrolled in a signature campaign I think there would be no problems for you to send the fee and continue to have fun with us all.

Keep in mind that last season I was last for about 3-4 races and then I ended in the top three which was a prize spot level,I was just consistent as I kept coming 2nd or 3rd in most races so the first race does not mean anything and this year looks even more interesting the F1 season as yes Redbull dominates but all other teams are at the same level almost,so plenty of time to make good races,there are also tons of yellow caps for grabs which are equal to free bets and everyone has an equal chance to get it.Just my two cents on the matter.
4332  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Too harsh on user? on: March 10, 2023, 05:18:21 PM
Is it right to call a gambling platform a scam for confiscating users account with the deposited balance because you use more than one SIM card to access the platform? The SIM cards aren't from same network provider, so their IP addresses are different from one another.

This happened to someone I know very well, but I found this to be too cruel,  different IPs on the same device shouldn't cause this ban, what do you think?  

There are some gambling platforms that pray that users make this mistake and use the opportunity to sit down on their money.

I am pretty sure that must be a really bad casino platform to play on.Most of well reputable casinos always send me an email letting me know that I started a session on their website and I am in the same country but I use different ISP-s and they know that it is me,I also have 2FA enabled and when a person has 2FA enabled means that 99.99% is this very same person accessing the casino so yes based on how you describe the situation,this is extremely cruel and the name of that platform should be made public so everybody is aware of such scammy platforms.That is why I have said here at least a hundred times that people should check this very section we are writing here and check the ANN thread of reputable casinos and only play there,this way such incidents won't happen again.
4333  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sportsbet.io's English Premier League Football Pool Discussion Thread on: March 10, 2023, 03:07:39 PM
A "long" round in superbru this one, i mean, normally we have 10 games and this one has 12, a opportunity to catch that 2 slam points.

But it gona be not easy like always Premier League always make surprises and this season we have a really tight fight in the bottom of the tabble and for the european spots.

Everyteam its playing for something , and what a misterious its for me every round Fulham, Brighton and Brentford, its always in my head the think "when they are gonna drop his level?".

12 games are always better than 10 as everybody has higher chances to get more points,and as you say those 2 slam points can really make a difference in the top 22 prize spots,the difference between participants is really low in these spots.

The fact that the number of games will be shrinking as just over 2 months are left for this pool to end,doing well in the 5 coming rounds is of paramount importance for anyone who adheres to be in a prize spot in the end of this tournament.Doing like 12-16 points per round can really make that difference if someone is able to keep at this level of points for the 5 coming rounds of this pool.

It looks like there is money to be made on this weekend in the Premier League but I am not that confident in a Chelsea win especially after fighting hard against Dortmund in this week Champions League game.I would only bet on Tottenham vs Nottingham Forest on Tottenham to win as I doubt they have any excuse for not winning this game now that they are out of any international competition and as such their full focus will be the Premier League,to end this season at all cost in the top four so they can give another go to the Champions League next season.
4335  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Biggest Bonus is Casino History on: March 10, 2023, 12:57:39 PM
The biggest bonus is a big money bonus,for example ongoing weekly bonus that could be 10 dollars and even more and you can make the monthly bonus of 50 dollars to people who comply with some specific wagering requirements and as such you would attract new customers to your casino.I am happy with such bonuses I receive right now at Stake and I am sure a lot of other people would love ongoing bonuses every single week because who knows that bonus money may give them a huge jackpot or a winning sport ticket.I don't think there is anything better than this but that is just my opinion.

What a brilliant Manchester United yesterday night.When I saw the first half ending 1-1 I thought that maybe they were going to end the game in a draw but they completely devastated Betis in the second half and most likely they are already on the next leg of Europa League which is becoming super interesting.It is becoming super interesting as Juventus won,Bayern Leverkussen won,Nice also should qualify and Arsenal the same,they should be able to beat Sporting in the return game.What is funny is that this league is most likely becoming more beautiful to watch than the Champions League.
4337  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you into NASCAR bets on: March 10, 2023, 08:39:56 AM
Is there any gambling app or websites that let you make bets on NASCAR and supports worldwide location? Generally speaking, there is not much popularity for the games that I am interested in in my area. I am not a big sports fan, however I am a great fan of NASCAR, MMA, and volleyball. If you have any good ideas, let me know.

I don't think NASCAR is that well known in betting and in fact I don't know any casino from the crypto ones that I play at to accept bets on it,they usually do for MotoGP and F1 as the most well known motorsports.I think though that NASCAR should be a good add on for any casino who will implement these kind of bets as I am also a fan of NASCAR and a lot of accidents happen there,so you cannot really predict that easily the outcomes there,well not as easy as you can do in F1 this season for example.

    -   If ever this 200k$ worth of bitcoins is true is good news for bitcoin lovers. You can try to get free bitcoins on this platform faucets.

That's also a big amount, even if it's just a little free I can get there, somehow when it accumulates, that's a lot, and the value of bitcoin in the market will drop a lot. Then there is also this dice game where you can bet even just a few satoshis, right?

Yes you can bet with as little as 1 satoshi in the multiply btc hi lo game but I don't suggest you do it as long as you want to accumulate a lot of satoshis you should not play multiply btc because it has a big house edge over 5% and as such you will only lose money if you keep doing that.

If you want side benefits like free lottery tickets and reward points for every 500 satoshi wagered and 1 Golden ticket for the Lambo draw for each 500.000 satoshi wagered go ahead and do that.
4339  Economy / Gambling / Re: No bet is a waste on: March 10, 2023, 07:44:17 AM
I agree that no bet is a waste.  My reason behind is that every bet we have the chance to win.  Just like betting in lottery, our ticket has a chance to win the jackpot price no matter how small it is.  Thinking that a $0.5 bet can win more than $20k is a good reason enough to gamble such amount.  And I think it is worth to try than letting the chance or opportunity to hit a jackpot since $0.5  can't make us any poorer but hitting $20k+ is a life changer especially to a gambler from a developing country.

With the level of actual inflation I don't think 20.000 dollars is a life changing event even in developing countries.I agree with you that is better to have 20.000 dollars more rather than not but the chances to hit it with 0.5 dollars is almost nonexistent.I think that you can put that 0.5 dollar to good use and buy a national lottery ticket which would be nice rather than gamble it away in a very short amount of time in different casino games.

For the games of tonight though I don't think Inter and Porto to be sure bets as that is what the community is hinting at,bet at your own risk as Inter is well known in causing upsets.
4340  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: March 10, 2023, 07:18:09 AM
Atalanta vs Napoli will absolutely be the match of the week in the serie A, Napoli will try to recover after losing against Lazio while Atalanta will do everything to get the 3 points to keep their chances for a champoins league spot, losing this match will absolutely lead them to Lose all hope in getting in the top 4 clubs this season

Atalanta I think is no big problem for Napoli as they have lost against Milan which is a weaker team compared to Napoli and Napoli even if they do not win this game they are still a long way ahead in terms of points compared to the second place in Serie A.This year we all know they have already won the Serie A and they are just maintaining their form,most likely they will move forward in the Champions League as they have already won away at Franfurt with 0-2 as a result,so they can most probably afford to not win with Atalanta but I think they will most likely.
