461  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: How do I tell people about my crypto escrow services/server? on: March 14, 2024, 12:15:03 PM
Here's my question: how do I tell people about my escrow service? How do I get people to do the first "leap of trust" that will lead them to know my service is legit?

Talk to your family and friends about it.  If they are not into bitcoin, ask them to talk to their friends about it.  If you offer a good service, they will start using it.  Smiley

Yes, I agree Reputation, trust, and testimony are what will launch your service, escrow service relies on trust and reputation and you can start with those people who know you personally but most importantly you need technical knowledge on how to protect the funds.
People who offer escrow services here do not reach their trusted status overnight so you have to work for it, escrow service is one of the hardest businesses to set up, which is why only a few people here can offer that service.

As everyone knows the goal of betting is to get the largest amount of money ,
For some people, this is just a secondary goal their goal is to enjoy playing and take profit when there is an opportunity to win money but it's not the main goal for some.

Quote
knowing that the risks do not change whether you bet a large or small amount, and sometimes the amount you bet with is your capital, and this drains you of your time and money, and perhaps your work and daily tasks.
Do you think that the benefits in gambling Worth the invest of your money and your time with knowing that your chances are Just 50/50?

It is human instinct to take a chance to double what they are betting even though the house has the edge, people are thrilled with the challenges it's what makes us alive, if you happen to visit a physical casino you will see people's faces on how they are excited and thrill on every roll and bet, some people derive their pleasure from gambling so gambling has benefits for these people.
Gambling produces dopamine in the brain, which is a reward system that makes gamblers thrilled and got their pleasure.

Some other gamblers stop playing when the win they first few games, while other continue to chase the loses, and technically ww can tell in accuracy when this things happens, but when is the best time to stop gambling and take a break?

1-when you lose?
2- when you win?

It is good to take a break or to quit when you win it boosts your spirit, but it's hard to stop when you still have not filled your satisfaction, so it depends on your satisfaction, whether you win or you lose, as long as you keep in mind that you're playing to enjoy and to be satisfied, but when you're motivation is on making money it's easy to make a decision when you already won.

In my case, I usually quit or take a break when I use all my allocation for that given day, but I just make sure or try to extend my allocation until my satisfaction is filled, it's not easy but you just have to control your allocation to avoid losing my allocation for the whole week.
464  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Devin Haney vs Ryan Garcia on April 20 on: March 13, 2024, 02:15:23 PM


We will see if this bubbly kid commits to his word and focused on the remaining weeks before his fight. Ryan is having mental issues again with his weird posts. Even his ex-wife also posted asking for prayers to Ryan. Ryan's promoter Oscar though told the media that Ryan is doing well and will be ready by fight date.

Pretty sure Derrick James is concerned of his ward. This is also a huge break for him and the result of this fight dictates what happens next to his career as a coach. But what happens to Ryan's social media who's earning a weekly? Maybe he will hire someone to continue posting?

He is focusing right now, I just stumble this video and he is looking good, his lateral movement is good he is training with his movement because he knows it's going to be a cat-and-mouse chase kind of match where he needs to catch Haney and throws him off balance with his hit and run tactic.

lateral movements and timing are very important especially if you're fighting a guy who knows how to use distance to his advantage like Haney, both fighters know this is going to be a tactical game, and when you're in a tactical battle you need to be able to run and move the whole 12 rounds if necessary.

Perhaps the majority of gamblers know this , especially the professionals and old-timers. Personally, I always fall into this trap.

-What is your analysis about this trick?


Not everyone, gamblers who are not doing research and just bet do not know this and may have implemented this one way or the other, but since this is a fallacy and the Cambridge dictionary defines this as
Quote
an idea that a lot of people think is true but is false:
it should be avoided gambling is a game of luck, and in-depth analysis if it's a sports betting

The most famous gambling fallacy
Quote
The most famous example of the gambler's fallacy occurred at the Casino de Monte-Carlo in Monaco in 1913.

But until now it has persisted because gamblers are looking for probability and to justify a pattern until people believe that it won't work

Question: Can you have so much love for your team to behave like this guy that even when you know your love fans team would loose a match, would you still further stake on the match against your team?
Remember that we are catching funs here and whoever chasing after profits is at its own will.

There is an option to not bet and just support the team you love. you don't have to lose money out of support, I'm not a rich guy to bet blindly out of loyalty, and I can still have fun watching and cheering for my team I'm not a risk taker I want to bet where I have a chance to win.
I am a fanatic on some of my favorite teams I will just hope and cheer that they win, my reasoning is I'm just a regular worker and every bet for me is important if it's not worth betting, then go for it, I'm sure they understand it.
467  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A Man bet his life savings on 1 spin of Roulette on: March 13, 2024, 09:44:09 AM
Some people are simply idiots. But first I wouldn't believe everything I see in videos like that. Would that man have done the same if there wasn't a camera in front of him? Besides, how can we be sure that they are his life savings?

Anyway he looks still young, still have time to save money again.. and who know, put it on another bet ! Grin

But he will be the laughingstock of people and a bad example of putting risk his savings in case he loses, and even if he wins people will think that this is craziness, we don't know what the guy's job and what's his mental state to put all his saving in one bet.
So far that video already has 1.8 million views, if you are a content creator it will give you a good idea to put on that kind of show and hype it.  Cheesy
But seriously is it even legal to put in a show like that in a casino even if the casino owner stated that they do not condone this kind of act, gambling should be within the boundary of the law.
468  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: About running an online casino vs an offline casino on: March 12, 2024, 03:00:36 PM
I have been thinking about this a lot now and today again, I did the same, it's probably the right time to pour out my mind to my family on this forum, hope in return to get some great answers.
I know that it's not easy to run a casino, hire workers and some professionals and others, my question is. ....
1. Is running offline casinos the same as running an online casino?
2. What do online casinos have to lose if they aren't making as much money as they intended?
3. With online casinos, isn't the number of hiring being limited compared to someone who wants to run an offline casino?
4. Which one is more easier to manage than the other?
And the last question is, which one would you go for if you have the resources?
Online casinos are much easier to set up you can set it up in a matter of weeks and everything is automated because of Cron jobs and you don't need a lot of staff it's very manageable, compared to offline casinos where setting up a facility and hiring staffs and training them will cost a lot of money and a lot of time.

In offline casino, you need a lot of managers to oversee the full operation of the casinos and you will spend on close circuit TV and security, something that you need to have in online casinos.

Both ventures are profitable but it takes a large organization to set up an offline casino, while online if you have funds and technical capability you can launch your online casino.

Kung totoo lang talaga na nagtutulungan tayong lahat pagdating sa pag-improve ng community sa Pinas, matagal na dapat na malaki at malawak ang influence ng bitcoin sa Pinas, ang kaso nga lang ay marami pa din lubog sa kahirapan at walang kaalam alam sa teknolohiya kaya ayun medyo alanganin at mahirap din yang sinasabi mo na mapalawak ang kaalaman kasi ang pagkakaalam ko na hindi ka basta basta mag-oorganize ng information drive ng walang pahintulot ng LGU.

Sa totoo lang ha, Madami padin talaga sa mga kapwa natin ang walang kapasidad na makapag invest sa bitcoin kahit aware sila dito, Unang una na nga yung nabanggit mo na wala silang mga pera at walang kaalaman sa technology... Pero gusto ko lang din sabihin na hindi kasi sapat na may pera ka lang at nalaman mo lang ang tungkol dito dahil pag promote ng iba, yung iba kasi, marinig lang ang salitang malaki ang return of investment, Willing na talagang ilabas yung pera nila kahit last resort nalang nila hawak nila e, Ang pinaka importante talaga ngayon ay ibahagi ng tama at mas lumawak ang kaalaman nila sa pag iinvest sa bitcoin, hindi lang dahil sa malaki ang kinikita dito.
Marami akong kilalang ganyan, alam lang nila bumili sa Coins.ph at Gcash Crypto pero hindi nila alam yung mga terminilogy at yung actual na pag transfer from one wallet to another wallet, peti nga centralized wallet at decentralized wallet hindi rin nila alam.

Yung mga serious investors lang talaga ang nag aalocate ng time at effort para tuluyang matutunan kung ano ang Cryptocurrency at paano ang tamang paraan ng pag invest.

Siguro nasanay lang talaga tayo sa centralize method ng transaction kaya nahihrapan ang karamihan na gumawa ng shift from centralized to decentralization.

Dahil sa Axie Inifinity mraming Pilipino ang na introduce sa Cryptocurrency dito lang sa lugar namin dami nag convert sa Cryptocurrency at nag research para maka pag participate sa Axie Infinity at kumita.

Sa tingin nyo magkakaroon pa ba ng second wave na tulad ng Axie Infinity na magmumulat sa kamalayan ng mga Pilipino sa Cryptocurrency.


Possible ito dahil umuulit lng naman ang uso. Itong meme coin nga ay naging trending ulit kahit na matagal na ito naging trend dati at naging image na ng isang basurang coin before ito ma promote at mahype ni Elon Musk. Posible tlga na mag trend ulit itong mga P2E games in the future once my lumabas na bagong feature na makakahype sa mga tao or if pasukin ito ng VC para magprovide ng liquidity para sa mga rewards gaya ng gnagawa nila sa mga startup blockchain.

Pero malabo ito mangyari ngayong cycle since halos nasa exciting part na tayo pero halos wala pa dn pumapansin sa mga P2E games kahit sa $Pixel na hype dahil sa airdrop ay hindi padn ganun katiwala ang mga pinoy para maginvest.

Nakausap ko yung isa kong kaibigan na nag invest sa Axie Infinity ng malaking halaga na kumita naman pero nung mag invest na sya sa ibang mga PVE doon na sya nalugi ng husto, babalik sya kung meron isang katulad ng Axie at isa syang early investor.
Sa laki ng lugi nya sa ibang platform pagkatapos ng Axie nag dadalawang isip na sya pero at least nalaman nya ang kalakaran sa Cryptocurrency sa ngayun sa Bitcoin lang at Ethereum sya umaasa mahirap din daw kasing sumugal sa mga nag tetrending na altcoin mas lamang ang talo, kung saan sumang ayon naman ako.

huwag nating ulitin ang ating mga pagkakamali dati na profit na iniisip pa natin na mas lumaki, ang taktika ko dito ay ilabas ang kahati at iwan ang iba, meron namang iba na nilalabas na nila at naghahanap ng ibang options at magsimula ulit, sabi ng aking kaibigan kung masaya kana sa profit magtp kana, kasi sa crypto volatile talaga maaring profit ka now mmya negative kapa.
Anung masasabi ninyo ganeto nadin ba kayong magisip?


Isa ako sa mga nag suffer ng 2017 massive hype ng altcoins, tumubo talaga ako thinking na continous ito at hindi matatapos kaya ako bili ako ng bili at nag bounty ako ng bounty thinking na tuloy tuloy na ang pag taas ng market, ito ang isa mga biggest regret ko.

Napasukan na kasi tayo ng mga scammers sa atin at maraming mga investors ang naloko kaya tama yung sinabi na hindi sa lahat ng oras ay tiba tiba need mo rin mag isip sa mga susunod na hakbang kung sakaling bumagsak ang market yung nangyari noong 2017 - 2019 ay isang malaking aral sa ating lahat ba dapat tayo maging handa sa bawat situation.

I want to receive money from my buyers in the philiphines . he only uses gcash .
 
but I can't use gcash because it requires local documents and a local number (Philippines).

Do you have any suggestions on how I can receive payments via gcash internationally? The easy one

I really don't know who else to ask. I just remembered that I still filipino community in this forum


It seems all your buyers are not aware of Gcash's Crypto features you can ask them to send you USDT or any Crypto that you all both agreed, you don't have to use Gcash or get verified, if all your buyers are not Crypto users they have to first get verified to be able to access the Crypto feature of Gcash.
You can also do that on Coins.ph or any other local exchange but it has to be Cryptocurrency its better if its USDT so there will no issue on volatility.

Update us if our recommendations are good/
473  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you prefer betting your own predictions or from prediction site on: March 11, 2024, 12:25:26 PM

There's nothing wrong in checking betting sites to verify your own prediction, but you should come out with your own prediction first and verify it and not checking these sites and influencing your own prediction.
For you to come out your own prediction you need to know the games that you're betting, and you can only cultivate your knowledge about the game if you have deep interest in the sport.
Like you I also trust my prediction I experiences losses and winnings but there's a sense of fullfillment if you got it right based on your own effort.
474  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Canelo Alvarez - Jaime Munguia May 4 Super Middleweight Championship on: March 10, 2024, 03:50:03 PM

Whoever manages PBC, hates that Cinco de Mayo celebration. PBC could have found someone French boxer to fight Canelo, and using the celebration to promote a fight could make a huge profit.

It's not that they hate the Cinco de Mayo celebration it's just that they have no better option and I don't think they can find a French boxer in the top standing, Mexicans will love to see that as it will commemorate their victory against France but PBC is going to lose a lot of money they are in the business to make money not to please anyone and that includes Canelo and the Mexican.

Quote
Anyway, Canelo is now considering another Mexican and he will also be considering Benavidez after Munguia. Canelo is still in his prime, he will surely crush Munguia.

There's no guarantee that he will take Benavidez there are reports that Benavidez is eyeing the light heavyweight, as he cannot keep up with maintaining his weight for the middleweight so he only has David Morell a very promising Cuban who has a perfect 90% knock out average, after he hurdle Munguia, Canelo will have to face a more better fighter to keep his status.

475  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Canelo Alvarez - Jaime Munguia May 4 Super Middleweight Championship on: March 10, 2024, 02:35:48 PM
Many fans are disappointed by this choice of opponent. Munguia is not a bad fighter but he is certainly below the level of David Benavidez. Canelo had hinted that his next opponent would be an American which many had assumed would be Jermall Charlo. Fortunately, PBC rejected that matchup. Munguia is a real warrior who will make it an entertaining fight if he can manage to hang in there for a decent amount of rounds.

Especially the Mexicans don't want two Mexicans fighting in their Cinco De Mayo because
Quote
Cinco de Mayo (pronounced [ˈsiŋko še ˈmaʝo] in Mexico, Spanish for "Fifth of May") is a yearly celebration held on May 5 to celebrate Mexico's victory over the Second French Empire at the Battle of Puebla in 1862
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cinco_de_Mayo#cite_note-NatGeo-1

They don't want to be divided in their celebration because other Mexicans consider Mungia as another up-and-coming Mexican boxer, Munguia has a legion of fans too I have seen Mexicans shouting the name of Munguia whenever he fought.

But Canelo has no choice his promoter PBC doesn't want another Charlo fight, Munguia is a good option since Canelo doesn't want Benavidez for obvious reasons, this is a very interesting matchup will see who's Mexican boxer the Mexican people will support on this fight.

Marami kasi dito sa bansa natin ang walang financial knowledge kaya marami nadali sa scam. Once kumita ay pwede na nila gawing basihan at automatic legit ang isang system kahit obvious na hindi kaya tumagal tulad ng mga pyramid at ponzi scams.
Totoo yan sa ngayun ay may mga drive na ang ating gobyerno at private sector para maturuan ang ating mga kababayan hindi lang sa financial knowledge kundi kung paano makakaiwas sa mga scam, ang dami ng naiiscam dito na mga kabababayan natin yung isang alam ko ang involved ay isang social media influencer na si Yexel Sebastian, na casino junket, umabot pa raw ng bilyon.

Di nako updated sa Pi pero may nababasa ako sa feed na ongoing pa din sila. So pwedeng hindi rin games ang magtrend sa cycle na ito. Pero tingin ko meron sisikat na p2e sa cycle na ito. Gusto ko talaga meron sisikat na mala-Mobile Legends. Yung Arena of Faith medyo okay rin pero di nagtrending.
Sobrang tagal na nitong PI na ito nag mine ako dito noong 2018 pero nung mag ask na ng KYC nag delay ako kasi nakakatakot parang masyado silang centralized at yung KYC nila hindi lang passport need mo gumawa ng video nung panahong yun, buti na lang di ako natukso na mag KYC pero dapat matignan din ito ng mga gobyerno kasi wala namang nangyayari sa mga pangako nila, hangang ngayun wala sila sa market after more than 5 years.

Drake thought Francis Ngannou would win but Anthony Joshua knocked out Ngannou in the second round of the match of the heavyweight showdown in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Drake lost $615000.

https://www.thecable.ng/drake-loses-615k-bet-on-joshua-ngannous-bout/amp?/drake-loses-615k-bet-on-joshua-ngannous-bout

Well here he goes again, why is it that whenever he posted his betting slips he kept losing, first when he bet Adesanya was going to beat Strickland, and then when he bet Strickland was going to beat Duplesis, these are three in a row its over 2 million dollars, I'd like to think Drake is not good in analysis when it comes to combat sports.  Cheesy

I don't think this is going to be the last we'll see Drake betting, but somebody should advise him to just post his winning tickets after the fight if he wants to bet, not before the fight, to save him from embarrassment in case he loses again.

Drake is still in demand he can still recover those losses through endorsements and concerts and he will continue to bet as long as he can find a way to make money.
478  Local / Pilipinas / Re: Unnecessary na pagpapalit ng transaction fee on: March 10, 2024, 11:05:51 AM
Sobrang nakakabwisit yung mga user na napaka careless gumamit ng RBF. Karamihan jan ay yung mga crypto users galing sa social media kaya walang pake or walang alam sa pagincrease ng fee kagaya ng nasa screenshot.

Karaniwan sa mga gumagamit ng RBF according sa data ay madalas nagpapalit ng fee in a short period of time kahit na hindi pa nacoconfirmed yung block simula nung ginawa nila yung pinaka unang transaction. Nagiging pataasan tuloy ng fee ang nangyayari kaya inuuna ng mga miner yung mga transaction na mas mataas ang fee hanggang tumass na dn yung average fee dahil nagsunudan na dn lahat.

     Bukod pa dyan sa sinabi mo na yan ay karamihan din hindi nila alam yan sa totoo lang kabayan, Saka talagang ang ngyayari na dyan ay lumalabas fee bidder kana na kung saan ay kung sino pinakamataas ay siyang uunahin nila at panalo ika nga. Kaya hindi nagiging makatarungan minsan yung labanan, dahil ang mananalo yung mga magsasagawa ng transaction na malaking amount ang ilalabas.

     Kaya ang choice na tulad natin ay maghintaya nalang at huwag makipagsabayan sa mga yan din dahil lalamunin lang tayo ng buong-buo, at diba nga ganyan ang ngyari nung kamakailan
lang dito sa diba?

Minsan na rin ako nakagami ng RBF dahil need lang talaga holiday season yun magpapasko dapat makabili na ng mga importanteng bagay na kailangan para sa okasyon nanghinayang ako sa RBF na ginamit ko parang pamasko ng mga inaanak ko at marami na ring mabibiling pang handa.

Mahirirap talaga ang sitwasyon na may congestion at need mo na ma confirm agad ang transaction at sobrang taas ng mga fee para ma confirm, kaya mas importante ka na may tabi kang pera para kung sakaling may congestion pwede mo i delay muna ang isa sda mga option ay umutang muna pero dahil sa season lahat halos gumagastos.
479  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does possessing information play an important role in betting ? on: March 09, 2024, 03:44:53 PM
Possessing the correct information in the world of gambling is an advanced and useful step, as it makes the player play more comfortably without pressure from other players, which can change the course of the game at any time, increase the percentage of chances of profit, and reduce the percentage of losses on the other hand.

-Do you apply  this strategy while gambling?
-How do you benefit from it ?

Not only information about the game you're playing and the strategies you can employ but also the casino you're playing, adequate knowledge when gambling, especially online, is essential.

We have seen a lot of players filing scam reports because of not allowing their withdrawal to be processed only to find out that the said player made a violation of their terms because of overlooking or not fully understanding the terms of the casino.

We are putting money in casinos so we should be guided on what to do and what not to do, casinos are strict with their rules, so if you of not want to be caught off guard be informed.



480  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you have this practice of gambling during one's wake on: March 09, 2024, 02:03:18 PM
I often play games during the wake to keep up with friends and relatives of the bereaved this is to sympathize with the family, these are friendly games and the tong will help the family, it's been with this tradition ever since in our country, and I believe it will keep on as long as there are families who need to cover expenses of the family's who are left.

Well that's my first time hearing about such thing in the world of gambling. I'm still doing my research about it and from the little I could gather, I really haven't heard of it in my country. If it were that popular, maybe it would be common amongst people in my country. Though it sounds like a nice Initiative to help the bereaved and provide them with little you can through gambling.

But not all countries will accept such practice. If an individual wishes to give money out to the bereaved then he should do it willingly and not through gambling.


This tradition has long been held here in our country the Philippines, there is a crackdown on illegal gambling by the police authorities here in our country, but since it is a tradition, the authorities eventually allow it provided that they only allocate one table for their gambling activity.

Quote
It is part of the Filipino tradition, specially for Roman Catholic believers that when someone dies, it is customary to hold a wake. Practitioners of some religions, such as Islam, bury their dead immediately within 24 hours. Wakes usually last several days, especially when the family is waiting for the arrival of close relatives. In the provinces, they usually last nine days, which is the length of time for the novena (prayer) to conclude, because of financial considerations.

This tradition is very popular in the provinces because our provinces are divided by seas it will take days before the arrival of the family to pay their last respect to their departed relatives, it's a past time to keep vigil and to strengthen the ties between relatives who just met during the wake, part of the proceeds will be given to the family as a form of donation.
