It looks like you want to avoid betting through a middleman, that is the online casino in your words. The alternative becomes betting person to person ( on a betting exchange) then. This way you play directly against another gambler, and not against the house, as usual. Unfortunatelly, there isn't any popular crypto p2p gambling platforms yet. As far as I know Betfair is the most popular one right now and you will need to use fiat to gamble there.

That is strange, because as the article posted in OP says, ukrainian volunteers and activists are being funded also through cryptocurrency in order to purchase military equipments, medical goods and accessories in general such as drones. If they can't use crypto to buy what they need, it will pointless to fulfill the goal of fortifying their defenses and strength against potential russian attacks.

Even if there is point limiting crypto usage on the law, I think the government will turn a blind eye to it due to the critical situation the country is facing right now. The government won't want to prejudice a patriot ready to defend his country in times like this...

Yes, it's not only possible, but also very likely. I doubt any bookmakers will introduce this betting category on their boards. Furthermore, to only allow Twitter users to vote is too restrictive. Theoretically by doing this, they want to know the public's opinion, but it is not going to work, because most people who are enthusiasts of movies aren't twitter users. The voting method should be wider, more accessible to everyone.

Manipulation for manipulation, oscars organizers could allow a poll on their official site where people would vote up to 20 times a day per IP...

In the way it's being done, it looks more like an orientated and privileged partnership in order to push up Twitter platform importance as main goal after all.

If there aren't bans, the problem must be something technical.

• Contact the casino you are trying to access through their forum account for further support;
• Clear your cookies and browser history;
• Try to access the casino through a different browser, device or internet connection;
• Check on google if another people are facing the same issues with this site in particular. If so, there could be a solution or explanation on why it's happening.

Anyway, I doubt there could be something so special on this specific site that isn't disponible on at least one of the another dozen crypto casinos around...

If you don't have a strategy and don't know how to analyze teams and players, doesn't matter if you choose a single or multi bet, the trouble will be the same for both betting styles. When a gambler isn't educated enough on sports' matter, he should just avoid it until he has enough conditions to make a coherent analysis of the match scenario, that will potentially lead him to a winning.
For an uneducated gambler that is still possible to happen within time, effort, patience as he develops learnship and of course, since he has a legit interest for sports and think it's an entertaining subject.

Taking the opportunity of the purpose of this thread, could anyone answer if there is a kind of "central gambling authority" who/which is the first to determine the odds of a match by himself/itself, so another platforms take that as reference, using those same values inside their own sites as well? Let's say, minor gambling sites copy the odds from larger and more popular gambling sites. Is it what happen for real?

Furthermore, even if investors go through altcoins' path for faster gains, it's advisable to always keep most of the holdings in bitcoin. Being very conservative, I would say to store at least 80% of crypto funds in bitcoin, doesn't matter the scenario. 20% is a good margin to play with altcoins, although I would risk only 5% of that total amount with questionable altcoins. So 15% of that money would be invested in promising altcoins such as ethereum, since it's a pretty solid one, or any other which guarantee extra benefits inside determined investment platforms like FUN, CRO, NEXO and so on...

After knowing I missed the ATH, of course I feel bad for not selling my coins. But that is something we can't predict before it happens, so there isn't much to do about it. If I knew bitcoin was going to crash after hiting 69,000$ I would have sold everything and invested all my profit again when it reached 40,000$ later.
However, since it's not possible to time market's fluctuations accurately, the best to do is to keep holding always thinking on long run returns. Personally I prefer to regret for not selling at ATH than regret for selling it for despair, fear or anxiety on the wrong moment.

If governments are confident the vaccines are effective, why do they have to demand sanitary passports from workers to maintain their jobs and access to their territories? Theoretically only those who denied the vaccine are going to be prejudiced, so let them live accordingly to what they believe, consequently suffering the results of their personal choices.

On the other hand, trucks' drivers can't stop and sabotage the economy of a country where majority parcel of the population endorses the vaccination (80% are vaccinated). Furthermore, it's not positive for bitcoin the fact it's being used to sponsor these protests. OP mentioned 21 bitcoins were collected. That is a lot of money! Who would be interested in funding these activities with so large amounts of money which will indeed prejudice Canada's economy?

These protests seem to have nothing to do with "freedom", it's just another political agenda being pushed up making using of bitcoin and crypto in general as tool for its shady purposes in pursuit for political power and supremacy.

Probably most investors think like you, and thanks to this fact, a strong support community has been built along the years which keep bitcoin price on the price range we see right now, with the possibility of rising to new ATH levels yet when the market becomes highly optimistic. That is the power of confidence bitcoin was able to create among its enthusiasts. So far there hasn't been any disappointments strong enough to break this chain of trust.

The future of bitcoin is bright because of investors like you.

Yes, that is it. For an example, look how many news sites and posts on the internet in general have said during past years bitcoin was dead, that it would never recover after the bear market of 2018 and that it was a ponzi scheme. On those times people making such statements made complete sense, they looked totally right, but then time passed and showed they were wrong.

The same happens with that argument saying bitcoin mining demands too much electricity, so it is harmful to the environment, but the fact this electricity would be used in a way or another is ignored by critics.

Even if the predictions aren't totally accurate I think it's nice from them to share their views and guesses regards games' results, because they could simply bet and make profit quietly without revealing any hints to anyone.
I agree with you, let's be thankful and take the responsability for our own acts when betting online without blaming someone else's opinion for a loss we might have betting on a wrong result.

Base interest is 4,08% annually for everyone. If your interest rate increases 2,5% through FUN holdings, annual interest will be raised to 4,18%. And if it increases 10%, annual interest will go to 4,48%.

You need to add the bonus percentage to the base percentage to reach the correct result (4,08 + 2,5% or 4,08 + 10%).

To gamble at home on the internet has became convenient for many gamblers already. And for those who live in countries where gambling is banned, cryptocurrency became the perfect solution to make gambling democratic and accessible for everyone. Thinking this way, internet and cryptocurrency were responsible for the whole task that I don't think metaverse would add much more to gambling industry and gamblers' entertainment in the way it's being currently developed.

If gamblers are going to adopt online betting at home it will be thanks to crypto, while metaverse is going to be just a detail (if it really works as expected).

I think there isn't anything bad the media can say about bitcoin or gambling due to the bet made by Drake. As you said, fiat is also used for gambling, so it's not an exclusivity of crypto universe, what means people will gamble anyway even if bitcoin didn't exist. And since big sums of money can't be moved anonymously through bitcoin on most gambling platforms, the media can't say it's money laundering too, because it's possible to easily investigate in case of suspicion.

Humans can invest all their potential and strength in technological and scientifical development without being necessary to have an one world currency or nation.

There isn't actually a good reason to make the whole world a single and plain nation, because what makes the world interesting and exciting is the fact there are many different people, cultures and ways of life.

Meanwhile, different national currencies guarantee sovereight to the people and the rulers of a country. It's also a tool to protect local economies against foreigner financial manipulation.

Since the beginning it was a bad idea, because cheated the terms and conditions of the platform, since US citizens aren't allowed there. Then you made things more complicated by entering a fake Hong Kong number and now you are probably going to complicate your situation even more by introducing someone else to the story in order to move your funds.

I think it's not a good idea, because it's a serious crime to pretend being a person you aren't.

Better to forget about it and to use only sites allowed for US citizens from now on.

I liked the idea you didn't only gave him 100$ worth of bitcoin, but also taught him to invest this amount to generate some extra income through interest along the time. When buying small amounts of bitcoin it's interesting to invest the satoshis to maximize the earnings, especially because we don't know how long bear markets can last, so at least you can generate some extra profit while bitcoin doesn't recover its price, which can be withdrawn or used as money for payments in general. Just make sure to let the bitcoins invested in a legit platform.

In terms of percentage price increasement it can be true, but in order to make altcoins gain more value, bitcoin still has to rise a lot more yet, because it is the main cryptocurrency among all, which drives market's prices. Without bitcoin, all the other currencies mentioned won't skyrocket. So I prefer the safe bet, that is bitcoin.
Doesn't matter if bitcoin grow only 3x or 4x in price, it's still a lot and it's still the safest and most trusted cryptocurrency, so why to seek for unnecessary risk with any currency else?

Your prediction makes total sense and that is what is most likely going to happen. I don't see high possible changes on this classification that could bring teams outside the top 4 to these positions. Uruguay and Ecuador look solid where they are, while Brazil and Argentina don't need comments...

On the other hand, Peru can still get lucky to manage a draw against Uruguay and then win their another game against Paraguay, expecting Uruguay is going to lose against Chile or draw at least. This way Peru can reach the fourth position. In a scenario like that, Peru would hit 25 points against 23 or 24 for Uruguay.
