Okay, that would be really weird. I don't get it how people is going to enjoy watching insects fight, let alone betting lol. Let's be realistic over here, I don't think much people would be interested on such kind of thing.  There are better ways of betting than watch small things fight with each other.
Anyways, whats next? A race between a rabbit and a tortoise?

Wow, I didn't know that Prime Dice required KYC if you win big. Well, I guess there are some people like me and if they gambled and won huge, they are going to be really disappointed hearing that they will have to submit their identification to claim their money. That's just sad.
Edit the error on your list. It's Crypto-games.net  Smiley.
Also, link each casinos to their announcement thread if its available. Going to be helpful for users.
4483  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is playing casino games online a good idea? on: April 20, 2019, 03:17:44 PM
Actually yeah. If you would like to play in a peaceful mind without much social interaction then online crypto casinos are the best. First of all, you can remain totally anonymous when gambling online, so there is nothing to be scared of. Then again, you after the opportunity to help in secured, trusted and legitimate casinos which you can manually verify.
4484  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Your favorite kind of lottery? on: April 20, 2019, 03:12:47 PM

What is your favorite / preferable kind of lottery:

1. Active or passive approach:

Active: you need to guess winning numbers your self (like 6/45 etc.)

Passive: just buy ticket and wait if the ticket is lucky or not

2. Odds or prize amount?

Will you choose a lottery game with higher odds but lower prize, or lower odds but huge jackpot?

3. Reasonable ticket price?

Thank you everyone who joins the discussion.


I prefer passive lotteries. You just buy your tickets and sit back until the draw takes place. Wouldn't mind active lottery though.
In your second case, i prefer prize amount. I am playing lottery which is a game of chance. I would like to be "lucky" by winning huge amount through small odds.
Reasonable ticket price sounds better.
Just look at crypto-games.net lotto. They have 4 different coins and they are easy to understand with affordable price for each lotto tickets.

Lately i'm just inspect most of the active Bounties in the forum and i even try visit those KYC requiring Campaigns i was find out that some of the campaigns are not accepting national ID's and requiring too much in order to recieve tokens I think its rude and too much what do you think?
It's not being rude. They are just taking precautions so that people do not abuse their campaign. No ones forcing you to join their campaign. If you feel "offended" and that they are acting "rude" then just ignore them and join another campaign. There are also risk of that campaign being a scam. After scamming people, they might even sell your identification.
4486  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is an entertainment? on: April 20, 2019, 03:03:15 PM
Most of the people states that gambling is form of entertainment but the reality is different gambling is like business where people look to make more money from investing little money but most of them will get failed.

So in your view gambling is business or entertainment,answer honestly. Cheesy
Its business and entertainment both. Depends on what perspective you are looking on. If you look through the casinos perspective, then it's all business and nothing else. If you look through regular player perspective, then it's all fun for most of us. But, yeah, there are people out there who takes gambling very seriously!
4487  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you guys read daily crypto news? on: April 20, 2019, 02:53:23 PM
I used to read a lot before, but can't anymore. It's not because I am losing interest or anything, it's just that I don't get much time to spend around  Undecided. Anyways, I still try to keep my self updated with the recent events. So i just go through the headlines. You can try crypto-news.net. They have some interesting news and articles everyday. Smiley
4488  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Never buy too much coins because you would eventually forgot gosh on: April 20, 2019, 02:45:32 PM
If you eventually forget you had some coins because you bought "too many coins", then you are to be blamed. Do not discourage others from investing in various coins just because you suffered. Forgetting about the coins you have means that you were actually being very irresponsible. Next time keep tabs on what you have invested on.
4489  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The problem of getting bitcoin in the future on: April 20, 2019, 02:01:25 PM
Yeah, the issue that you mentioned is actually true. But honestly, those are just small issues that can be fixed anytime. The laws will change once bitcoin becomes widely used. It won't create much of a problem. Besides these problems, there are more huge problems that we need to fix. Once everyone starts to adopt using bitcoin, can the network be able to handle all those thousands of transactions together? Will the fee remain the same or will it skyrocket proportionally? Will people be able to adopt with it? Can it be used as a regular currency? These are the main issues and problems we need to think about.
4490  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Fun stuff to do with bitcoin? on: April 20, 2019, 08:22:54 AM
I remember the first years of bitcoin's life. There were so many things to do and learn: mining, faucets, wallets, blockchain visualizations, etc.

Nowadays the bitcoin world is pretty boring: mining is for people with deep pockets, faucets don't exist anymore, wallets are getting centralized by big corporations (blockchain.com, coinbase, etc.).

Is there anything fun left to do with bitcoin, any specific application, website, app, anything that will make bitcoin fun and interesting again? Otherwise I just keep on holding and that's it.
What do you mean by "is there anything fun to do with bitcoin". Bitcoin was made to be used as a currency. Not to play with. By the way mining is for people with deep pocket because its getting expensive to do so as more people start to use bitcoin. We are not to blame anyone over here.
Faucets do exist but they don't pay like they used to before since the price of bitcoin is very high compared to few years ago. Wallets are not getting decentralized. You are not being forced to use those wallets. You can always use your core.
Watching the price rise is also fun. Just keep on holding if you have no intention of spending it.

Still selling those gift cards. 10% off the actual price. So it's $90 for the $100 USD play store gift card and $22.5 for the $25 USD play store gift card. Buy both together for $110 USD!  Smiley PM me or just reply here.
4492  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: KYC defeats the purpose of Crypto. Thoughts anyone? on: April 19, 2019, 08:35:15 PM
The KYC process annoys the hell out of me. I remember a time when you could trade coins freely and without owning up to your identity at all. Not that I'm hiding anything, I just don't like every man and his dog having a copy of my government ID - I feel that's very intrusive. I mean the whole idea of cryptocurrency was anonymous peer-to-peer trading without government intervention. Now it seems you can't fart in the wrong direction without someone breathing down your neck.

I mean I get it, exchanges, ICO's, etc, want to be on the safe side -- although what I really object to is these places accepting my crypto first and then telling me that I need to give them a mugshot if I want to use it, or withdraw it again. It's a nightmare.

Anyone else a bit miffed with all this identity craziness we're in right now?

Or am I just being a grumpy old man?
Well it does. Crypto currencies were made to bring financial privacy in peoples like. Unfortunately, if you fill the KYC form, you are no longer hidden and all your information will be connected to your specific wallet/service (that you are using). Your financial matters will no longer remain private. Sadly, most of the ICOs that takes your information turns out to be a scam. They scam people and then earn more by selling out your information. Remember, there are always alternatives. If one of the service you are trying to take asks for a KYC form, then move on to another.
4493  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Garbage Or Gold on: April 19, 2019, 08:00:54 PM
If Bitcoin or other crypto currencies were actually garbage, do you really think around 5.8 Million people would be using bitcoin (that's the estimate research result carried out by Cambridge university)? Of course not. They 1 person or 1000 person can be making a mistake but not 5.8 million people at once. Bitcoin again is also not considered as "Gold". It's just a currency that was made to decentralize the financial aspect and bring financial freedom.
4494  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you gamble only with Bitcoin and do you have other favorite alt-coin? on: April 19, 2019, 06:22:23 PM
I mostly used to gamble with bitcoin only (now i don't gamble much any more). You know, those casinos allow you to makes very small bets and even 1 satoshi bets ( not sure about other casinos but crypto-games.net does allow that). So, we can try out different strategies by risking small. But my another favorite altcoin to bet with is Doge coin. Who doesn't like dogecoin?  Wink
4495  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to deal with greed whilst trading? on: April 19, 2019, 05:58:34 PM
Self control is what you need. You need to learn how to control yourself and have to strictly organize your finance. You will have to keep track of yourself and your money. Make sure you are  never exceeding the line. The best thing to do is keep tabs on your finance through a spreadsheet. Set your daily limit/goals of profit or loss. Once you reach this limit stop and don't continue for that day.
4496  Economy / Economics / Re: There's nothing more happier than seeing your bitcoin price going up! on: April 18, 2019, 08:54:20 PM
Actually it depends on the "time". Now, there are people who never invested on bitcoin when the price was low. They don't seem to be quite happy when the price starts to rise. Again, there are people who sold their coins but when they see the price rising more, they start regretting. Again, there are people who saw the price rise and then jumped into the hype. But then, the price started to drop and trust me, they are the angriest one over here!
It's true, people feel happy when they see the price rise. I have seen the price of bitcoin around $180 and look at the price now. It does make me happy.
4497  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Warren Buffet statement again on: April 17, 2019, 09:23:30 PM
Warren Buffet is one of the biggest investor in the world and I am sure. He is somewhat right about bitcoin, even though I don't totally agree with him. Investors such as him and other millionaires usually look for safer ways to invest their money while bitcoin market is very volatile and it doesn't promise them anything for the future. That's probably why they don't recommend bitcoin as a good investment for people.
Or that guy is just spilling out all those bullshits on purpose to cause confusion among people so that the price remain low and he can still invest on crypto currencies behind the back of the people when the price goes down. Irony, he called people who believes on bitcoin "delusional". Trust me, his opinion does not matter at all in case of crypto currencies. He is just a fiat lover and knows that bitcoin will eventually take over and this is something he can not accept so keeps on spreading his negativity all around.
4498  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Im a full Time Trader on: April 17, 2019, 08:37:47 PM
You are full time trader and you are not making any money? Then you are making some mistakes that you are keeping on repeating. First of all, get a full time job. Make trading just a hobby of yours to make extra profit. Secondly, only invest what you will be able to lose for now. Now, before you start trading with huge amount, learn how the market works. Get to know the basics of trading. Then, start investing small amount and learn from your mistakes. Once you get to understand everything, start investing more and try not to repeat your previous mistakes.
4499  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Would you borrow in cryptocurrency? on: April 17, 2019, 03:24:44 PM
If the price volatility is actually very low and is almost stable in price, then yeah I guess people won't hesitate to borrow funds using crypto currencies. In fact its going to be extremely easy for them to borrow money in terms of crypto currencies. Just few clicks and it's done. I know trust would be an issue over here, but then again, involving a third party institution means you will be sacrificing financial freedom.
The case would be different if the prices were extremely volatile. The complexity of giving loans would increase.
4500  Economy / Economics / Re: More formal blockchain education needed in the Philippines on: April 16, 2019, 10:01:23 PM
I think education is good idea so many people learn about Cryptocurrency not only in the Philippines but also to some country that developing their country. More knowledge and learning about crypto will be good for every body so we can face anything will happen in crypto and also they can manage what they have in crypto.
You do know that education is a very broad term. Moreover, trust me, educational institution isn't actually the best place to learn about crypto currencies. On average, most of the educational institution are just a place were people are forcefully fed with information that they can not process. They are also forced to study from a defined box of information which is actually a bad thing.
People will need to spread the knowledge about this technology in every way possible which will eventually rise an interest in those youngsters mind.
