I don't want to say how my area responds and makes friends with people who are involved in the world of gambling.

I have read about research that has been carried out by several experts in life in the community, the understanding that I have read is that researchers say that 99% of society is predominantly Muslim, The act of gambling is a form of disgrace, which is generally viewed by the majority of Muslims.

So, whatever the factors are in the opinion that someone who is friends with those who gamble can be seen as morally bad, it can be said that this also applies in the area where I live.

Currently we can see that there are thousands of Altcoins operating in the crypto market, but quite a few of them lead to Altcoin scams, many of those who trade or invest are trapped in Altcoins.

I compare Altcoins now with Altcoins in the 2017 era, now they are very different because there are too many so many investors are hesitant to trade Altcoins and I look at the ATH four years ago, Altcoins barely moved in the market.

So, in my opinion, if you want to trade or invest, just do it in Bitcoin or some popular type of crypto, maybe that's better, rather than having to wait for the uncertain movement of Altcoins.

In my opinion, whatever type of gambling or betting you want to implement or develop, especially the main thing you want to do with Bitcoin, in my opinion it is legal and it is a good idea in my understanding.

In essence, whatever type of payment method with Bitcoin you want to make, tickets and so on, especially in electric soccer betting, if it can benefit the players and act honestly and responsibly, I think that's normal and can be accepted by the community here.

My understanding is to do whatever you like in any feature on your gambling site with Bitcoin, it's not a problem for that.

OP, you have to understand, this is a forum, which means a place where someone discusses discussions and understanding about Bitcoin, trading, investing, mining, and so on, generally discussing Bitcoin, not about making money.

If you want to make money, especially in Bitcoin, you have to look for someone who understands the use of Bitcoin in the real world, he can teach and show you in real detail how to make money from Bitcoin, There are things and factors that you need to complete with certain conditions before you really get to know Bitcoin for real.

Here I can only show you the theory, to put it into practice for real, you have to search as I said above, and get to know some of the things you need to know, trading. You have to get to know those who can teach you in terms of trading, Likewise with investment, mining and so on, you can't be guided by writings/posts, you have to actually have real people.

My understanding is that both options are risky, both are not easy to do, even though we have a lot of money, but what you say is certainly true, but most of us don't care about it, that's a sequence that often happens to every gambler.

No matter how great the responsibility we have within ourselves or in applying it to gambling, the risk still cannot be separated from the user. For me, gamble as usual and based on your abilities and maintain self-control when carrying out gambling activities, You don't need to be responsible and serious, think of gambling as an outlet for your boredom in daily activities and don't gamble using the money you need, gamble with side money so that you don't take responsibility too seriously when the risk of loss comes your way.     

Honestly, I have bet on sports betting, generally sports betting is often done by experts in terms of predictions, sports betting is one of the easiest factors to guess, but there are two things called predictions: the possibility of being right and the possibility of being wrong.

To be honest, personally, I don't trust the predictions of experts, especially if they ask me to place a bet on a certain type of game, in gambling I believe in luck more.
The reason:
If they are experts in predictions, of course they will do it themselves, but wait for a percentage from other users, it's simple, if he believes in the predictions, of course he is gambling for himself, why do they have to tell other people, the point is that they themselves are not sure, so they have to look for users who must be sacrificed in their predictions.

As far as I know, there are no experts in predictions in the gambling arena, it is purely based on guesses or hallucinations in the minds of experts in guessing.

News between Casimero vs. Inoue, has become a hot topic of conversation among loyal supporters of both parties, supporters each claim that each of their boxing idols is the best, Here, in other news, there are many comments that we can see on Casimero's Facebook page, he posted a challenging video, it looks serious and a little too arrogant of Casimero towards Inoue.

I hope boxing between Casimero vs. Inoue could become a reality in the coming year, there is an interesting point that I see in this.
For example:

This is a statement from Casemiro's supporters, but there has been no interesting reply to Inoue's loyal supporters, it will be interesting to see the replies from Inoue's supporters.

For me, of course I don't want to underestimate the punches, speed and strength that Inoue has, I hope this opportunity really happens between Casimero vs. Inoue, regarding losing and winning, maybe we should wait for the continuation.

We all know there are interesting things when ATH happens to Bitcoin, maybe we can see that currently various speculations have been predicted by many experts, of course this can happen or not, speculation does not guarantee that something will happen.

But even though there is various speculation, of course we can see from the experience that has occurred with Bitcoin from time to time, it has been proven that developments and changes in terms of prices have increased, maybe I will do the same thing, I will maintain as much as I can waiting for the new ATH against Bitcoin to occur.

Even though currently the price of Bitcoin is not showing seriousness, I still stick to my principles for Bitcoin in the future, hoping that there will be changes from what happened several years ago.

Yes, that's the best advice for all of us here, gamble as much as you can and by considering all the risks that can happen unexpectedly, I think those who have their principles are the ones who succeed in gambling, they always bet on commitment, without being guidedon other people's principles.

Gambling does have risks, as long as we have principles, of course we will avoid all risks that might occur, For this reason, it is very important that we have to control our level of ability in gambling, don't force ourselves if we are not able to do it, it makes us depressed and so on.

If I pay attention and consider it, investing in the crypto market in 2024, if I consider it, is the right action, for several reasons.
1. In that year, Bitcoin experienced a change that many people mentioned, namely ATH, this situation saw a big change in the type of crypto on the market, so it is very likely that investment is a good idea at this time.
2. Remembering and looking at the current crypto market, Bitcoin and several types of crypto have not yet had a significant impact on change.
3. And other reasons that most likely there are opportunities in investment.

From several things and reasons that I mentioned above, considering that there are only two days left to enter 2024, it might be a good investment idea.

Maybe if you ask these five things, for me the answer depends on the situation when the game is over, when you are gambling, the feeling is there, but it all depends on the situation.
For example:
After gambling and winning, of course the thing you feel is satisfaction and enjoying the whole game, that's all if you win or lose in gambling. The other three points come in, that's what you feel in the gambling arena.

This question cannot be answered honestly, because situations are different, sometimes you win today and you lose tomorrow. Personally, of course I have to choose all of them, for the reason that these five factors are felt by every gambler.

We can't force someone to choose the type of crypto they want to invest in, it's all their right and their choice is the best for themselves in the future, everyone has their own principles and goals in the future, it's all a choice.

But in the few years of experience I have been involved in the crypto market, with investment choices I have become fed up with types of crypto that are not popular in the market and in people's opinion, some of which are dead and have problems, that is a risk for each of us in investment choices, for this reason, currently I only dare to invest in two types of crypto, if we talk about investing in Bitcoin and Ethereum, maybe it is better for me than others, that's just my experience, the point is: everyone has different choices and views.

At first we here also asked the same thing, as time went by we continued to learn and learn. to increase our knowledge here, especially about Bitcoin and other things related to Bitcoin/Crypto/blockchain and the like.

For this reason, I am personally happy that there are still newcomers who want to know a lot about Bitcoin. For this reason, Bitcoin has now become a topic of conversation and is featured on the main page of every internet media, Google, magazines and so on, it is easy for you to learn and understand.

So maybe you can start first LEARN BITCOIN BASICS: A SIMPLE EXPLANATION OF HOW BITCOINS WORK AND HOW TO USE THEM, and further A quick introduction to Bitcoin, what is needed next Everything You Need To Know About Bitcoin, For this reason, several members here have shown many things that you want to know, the information above is just additional information for you to understand further, hopefully it is useful.

If you ask those who are addicted to drugs, why do you consume drugs, they will clearly answer for pleasure, in fact they know that drugs can damage and harm themselves in real and financial terms, well the same thing also happens to those who are addicted to gambling.

Everyone knows that gambling can harm them financially, but behind it all, many people think that in gambling there is pleasure, whether it is: happy, satisfied, a hobby and so on, on this basis many people involved in gambling think that gambling is fun for them.

For me, if there are people who say that gambling is for fun, even though they lose, that is normal and reasonable, because human characters, traits, hobbies and thoughts vary, just as we see someone who likes to race wildly, in fact they know they are doing it illegally without security and protection, the consequences are fatal if they collide with other drivers, they also answer that it is for fun.

Don't look at money, losses as pleasure, look at it from the other side, as I said above.

As far as I know, a license is not to be used for fraud and cheating in the gambling industry. A gambling license is to have official permission from a government authority, where the online casino operating looks legal, that's a licensing point of view.

This is different from acts of fraud or cheating, generally the casinos that operate here have a license in general, but we still see negative things, whether for users or the casino itself, conclusion: the license does not guarantee you a loss, the license is only to act as a site that is officially recognized by all elements, especially users, who want to bet at a particular casino.

For me, greed is not a factor that can cause someone not to achieve profits in crypto trading, for me the worst factor that causes someone to lose in trading is not having trading knowledge.

Crypto trading is always accompanied by knowledge, whether in terms of analysis, charts or market situations. If you don't have knowledge in analyzing the crypto market and the movement of the type of crypto being traded, of course the risk of loss is greater than the profit, In other cases, emotional nature can also harm us in carrying out trading activities. In other cases, patience can also determine positive things in trading, a person cannot succeed in trading if they are impatient, for me that is the basis that makes many of those who lose in crypto trading.

So it's like this, in the area where I live currently, young and old people are addicted to slot gambling, what we generally mention is chips, some of them play slot gambling using real money, This phenomenon has become a serious problem for the government to deal with the problem of slot addiction.

Talking about time, I saw some people playing slots from morning till night, not knowing whether they had problems when they came home or not, what was certain was that they gambled without considering the time, playing slot gambling without taking into account the time, this doesn't just happen in one place, on average I see things like that in the area where I live.

The point is: the time spent gambling, in my opinion depends on individual awareness.

My understanding is that gambling is identified with the word 'happy' or 'having fun' as the OP said, in the word fun which is always said by those involved in the world of gambling, to my understanding this is not a lie, it is fact and reality thereby.

In my understanding, pleasure is interpreted or described broadly, especially in the gambling arena.
For example:
Satisfied, at home, happy and comfortable.

This pleasure can be identified as someone feeling at home in the game or satisfied in betting, especially when they experience victory, in other words, pleasure is not only based solely on money, Many of us have money but their lives are not happy, as well as those who don't have money, but they are happy in a happy atmosphere..

Although as you said, there are a series of topics that discuss things like what you mentioned, but in my opinion not all countries are free/legal for Bitcoin spending or spending activities, If that's the case for you, considering the transaction costs incurred with the price of the goods purchased, the costs are more expensive.

For this reason, I think there is little for those who sell/buy goods using Bitcoin, except: transactions which are often carried out here are between wallet to wallet or exchange to exchange, other than that I think it is minimal for those who carry out spending or spending activities withBitcoins.

This also happens to me personally, what should be shown here about spending, even though in my area there are several activities that accept Bitcoin, but I never use it, spending paper money without risking additional costs for spending, maybe.

As far as I know, affiliate program business is mostly carried out by partners or bookies in the world of online gambling, the aim is to make a profit by entering your referral link/code when they register, This has been done by members here at one of the online casinos active here called: COINSLOTTY

In my memory, if you are one of the members who applies the Affiliate Program in gambling, you have to go through the four things below.

Based on the quote above, it is quite clear that those who register and gamble at one of the casinos using your affiliate referral code, obviously the commission goes into your balance, except: they register without using your referral code and you do not promote the casino.
