OP already pointed that out and mentioned sidechains and/or layer 2 solutions.
If the lightning network will be supported, it will really be good, but will the lightning network be used with bitcoin DeFi tokens for making transactions also? This will really be nice because it can also help in lightning network adoption. But the issue of scaling solution is still the talk about bitcoin. If DeFi is introduced into bitcoin, that means more people will make bitcoin transaction when their is no effective scaling solution unlike the BSC except the lightning network. If people will make use of the bitcoin lightning network effectively, it will be a good solution for the scaling process.
4882  Economy / Gambling discussion / Creteria needed for playing on in-play football matches on: July 22, 2021, 04:34:03 AM
I believe you know the type of matches I am talking about already, there are different types of in-play matches, it can be football, basket ball, table tennis, it can even be horse or doge racing. Out of all, I have preferred to bet on football and tennis, but most preferably I like football. Football in-play is nothing new to me because I have gambled it thousands of times. I have some experience about it and the reason it is leading to losses.

I still remember when I start gambling on in-play football matches, I though if a club or country is leading by 2 goals already at the 70 minutes to the end of a match that the club leading with 2 goals will win, but I later have to know that I was wrong until I lost very well after the opponent equalizing or even wining the match.

I later had to look for other tactics that I can use to win such online games, I noticed the odds are small, it can be as low as 1.02 to 1.1. I later noticed that I can win 5 or more matches and not lose, but I can use $50 to just win $10 in all the five matches. So the loss will be a big loss.  I have been looking for strategies to win in-play football matches.

Are you wining in-play football matches? What are your strategies?

Depends on the friendly team in the match, if the mediocre team plays better I don't bet and if the favorite team plays I will bet what else the two big teams play it will be more interesting.
even though it's a friendly match if the big teams play they will still play seriously because it will protect the team's good name, and friendly matches are broadcast because to entertain us for another reason because all the matches are over.
Well, if the good teams play, it does not still guarantee that the match can be won, players do not take friendly serious like league and cup matches, they are very sensitive not to even have injuring, even from seeing them playing you will noticed they did not put in much efforts unlike in tournament matches. But this can still indicate that the strong team have more possible chance to win the underdog. Only what I just like to go for on friendly matches are over 1.5 and 2.5 goals and nothing more.

What I am still concerned about is how the fee (I mean the transaction fee) of bitcoin could be while making transactions (I mean the onchain fee), when BSC is already existing which people can make use of with very low fee, including ethereum which its fee is though high but bitcoin fee will be slightly higher. Both ERC20 and BSC20 are existing already and there will really be need to have a bitcoin smart contract that can be used to make use of low fee effectively. Although, people like bitcoin because it has the highest marketcap which will make it for large number of people to make use of its tokens.

Reading your opinion here ,I see a double opinion like you are sitting on the wall , why ? The point is women have been objectified and that is getting to the public whether with casinos or movies, artists etc is there on every part of the modern day life. It is more like you don't show sexy women in your business then you don't get customers because others will run over to another client. But casinos should be different because it involves gambling business and in business, they say you don't miss business with fun.
How am I having double opinions? That means you did not get me right or you did not get the topic right, you need to differentiate between sexy women and nude women that OP is referring to in 'sexy casinos. Okay, let me break it down more for you, in normal casino, the girls employed are sexy and attractive and based on business and professional in their work (mode of dress, talk and others), can you compare it to a casino where only pants and bra will be won? They are not the same. I have already read some posts on this thread that the users said they have not see such casinos like that before.
4886  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling attracted to emotion or luck on: July 20, 2021, 09:48:27 AM
I have noticed that sometimes when I gamble, I used to win unexpectedly even when I never intended to bet. The most shocking thing is that I usually win when my mind is not that prepared to gamble probably jokingly. Anything I'm focused and well prepared I usually lose. I don't know if this is affiliated to luck or just emotions. Does this happens to others?
Gambling is associated with emotion, you can notice this if you gambling continuously, you may win the first three bets, if you continue to gamble and lose at ones, the more will then be the loses. This will result to loss at the time if the person continue to gamble, he will lose all at the moment.

The unexpected are always happening while gambling, so just picking a game can result to you to win. I remember the first time I ever gambled in my life, I did not place the bet professionally but just select the clubs that will win, I stake on the matches and I won the bet

That is the reason it is just good to have fun while gambling, using an amount you can afford to lose.
4887  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling on friendly matches on: July 19, 2021, 10:54:26 AM
Base on the article it does sound like it's still not friendly at all. It even says a friendly match is a dangerous gamble whatever the writer says I'm going to consider it not risk free.
No match is risk free, professional matches are even better than friendly matches because expected players will play in professional matches unlike friendlies. The outcome of friendlies are unpredictable, many people have commented how the underdogs have more chance of winning if compared to professional matches. It is not even a good suggestion for someone to stake straight win in a friendly match.
4888  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Your betting budget on: July 19, 2021, 09:56:10 AM
I understand you, and I don't play that way either, I prefer many small bets than one big one. But mathematically speaking, the chances of winning with one bet are much greater than by making many small ones. Roughly speaking, long-distance loss is guaranteed, and a single bet can bring victory.
When I gamble just for fun, using only just 2% of my weekly income, I bet on any game. It really surprised me when I bet on correct score that I won one day, but it was just a complete luck. I gamble for for, I bet on weak team to win strong team at times, especially when I know the strong team are not playing good. I have tried small odds too, they are better, but this can lead to someone to bet more frequently, there could be many small winings, but single loss can take all the money and result to loss, but playing it not often can let it be fun and a way to gain.

No, any problem with Ethereum (ETH native) means a problem with all ERC-20 tokens and vice versa.
the increase in Ethereum fees means that all other networks will increase in value, which is what happened to BSC.
Ethereum and ethereum tokens are altcoins, why did you not just mention the name of the  altcoins and tokens directly, no need to mention altcoins again because ethereum and ethereum tokens are altcoins. You can have your portfolio the way you want it but because this is public, it has to be different. You can begin like this as an example:

1. Bitcoin 70%
2. Ethereum 10%
3. BNB 10%
4. Ethereum tokens and BNB tokens 5%
5. NFTs 5%

No need for altcoins to be included again is what I am saying.

- Litecoin used to be a Top 5 coin. It's now in the 13th place.
- Steller is slowly dropping out of the Top 20.
- Monero and EOS have already dropped out.
- I remember that NEO was in the Top 10 a few years ago. It's sitting on #41 today.
- Iota, Dash, DigiByte, Verge have it even worse.
This does not mean, many of these coins increased more than bitcoin if you check the percentage of increase, but they are now falling more than bitcoin during bear run. Some people have Doge, Raven, Zilliqa and Digibyte in their portfolio and become rich by now. Altcoins are more risky but profitable during bull run.

I have noticed some people uses he/she/they for Satoshi Nakamoto because no one knows if Satoshi Nakamoto is a man, woman or group, using any of the three is not bad. But I have noticed using only 'he' is most perfect in a sentence or article or post or anything you want to call it. I mostly make use of 'he' but there are some posts I will not have option than to make use of he/she/they all together.
4891  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What crypto offers are good to promote them for the mainstream? on: July 19, 2021, 06:52:17 AM
What you are looking for may be bounties, you can check the board often to see many projects. Know that a project can fail, you may work for a bounty project but not paid, some project can pay you but the price of the coins that is paid can decrease and result to bounty hunters not to make any profit, to cut it short, bounties are risky. You may like to stay often on this forum, learn and post and grow, you may join good signature campaign later.
4892  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Crypto Portfolio Diversification on: July 19, 2021, 06:38:39 AM
Although diversification is generally a good idea, most of the time it doesn't do much good in the crypto niche.
I think it depends on the coins you have, the best among all is bitcoin but there are some altcoins that are still good too, but just that it is good to learn about altcoin and know the best to invest. After bear run, it is not bad to invest in altcoins because they will increase very well during bull run. Try to check the price of Doge, Raven, Zilliqa, Digibyte and some other coins, check their price in the last one year to know what I am talking about. Altcoins are very risky during bear run, but good during bull run. I am suggesting only good altcoin, there are many altcoins that are shitcoins. If someone have 70% of his portfolio on bitcoin and have 30% on altcoins, I do not see it a bad idea.
4893  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling on friendly matches on: July 19, 2021, 06:24:56 AM
Does anyone know which will be the next friendly match? Users should post them here.
That should not be a problem, there are sites for checking scores, some of them would have included all the game that will be played during the day on their site in the early morning hour, the games are also defined with titles which indicates the type of league, cup, also maybe it is international country or club friendlies, that is how I do check. The problem is that there are some friendly matches that may not be on sportbooks unlike leagues and cups, but there are also still many on sportbooks.
4894  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Crypto Portfolio Diversification on: July 18, 2021, 08:12:07 PM
For example, you can allocate your wallet with 50% bitcoins, 15% ETH, 10% ETH Tokens, 5% stablecoins, 13% altcoins and 7% NFTs.
How are ethereum and ethereum tokens special, they are all altcoins, or use individual coins in the example. Out of almost 10000 cryptocurrencies that are existing, many of them are scam while many are risky to invest on. I can not say some will not bring profit, but it is better for people to learn very well before investing on any cryptocurrency.
4895  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling on friendly matches on: July 18, 2021, 08:38:55 AM
Sincerely predicting this games is a bit difficult atimes so I spend good time selecting my teams both for the country and club teams but from my personal observation countries tend to perform better in friendlies compared to clubs.
In what way in performance? Do you mean in straight win? Or choosing total goal scored?

In straight win, I do not bet on straight win in friendlies, but likely countries can be performing better but I do not know, but there are many unknown clubs in club friendlies if you noticed, even if the clubs are unknown and uncommon, how will the match be determined when the players also are not known. But what about going for total goals? I mean the total goals scored by both teams after the match ended. I used 1.5 as the min and 2.5 to be the max.
4896  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling on friendly matches on: July 18, 2021, 07:59:35 AM
The bottom line: there are the biggest consequences in a friendly match, Although the assessment that leads to the game is more underdog, in fact this match is very difficult to predict.
Yes friendly matches is very difficult to predict, I have also noticed that, that is why I did not mention wining but just over 1.5 or over 2.5, which means both team or one of the teams scoring 2 or 3 goals will make the bettor to win the match. I have been noticing friendlies over a long time ago, most opponents score or one opponent will score more than one or two goals. Try to check this out about friendlies. If to consider the ratio of this type of goals to no goal or under 1.5 goals, the ration will be 70% matches played to be over 1.5 while 30% for under 1.5. I too do not go for straight win because I noticed the winner is not certain because the players used are not the first 11, may not even be part of the A team.
4897  Economy / Gambling discussion / Gambling on friendly matches on: July 18, 2021, 06:38:43 AM
The most common friendly matches are both the international  country and club friendlies, long time ago I have seen these type of matches as a way to bet and have fun, many of my betting result are positive most especially if I bet on a single match. The country or club that will win is not certain but I noticed staking on over 1.5 or over 2.5 is always most of the time results to a good outcome.

I am not saying this is a risk free bet, no bet is risk free, but I noticed this type of match most of the time results to many goals scored which makes better for taking over 1.5 or over 2.5 and the games are won.

Some people still like to accumulate, the accumulation can also be positive and won but the more the accumulation the more the high chances of losing. But I do not still see any wrong in accumulating 3 matches, though the chances to lose will increase because as one match lost result to the nullification of the bet, I prefer just a single game in a week.

What do you think about staking on over 1.5 and over 2.5 on international friendlies (both country and club friendlies)? Or do you prefer to go for straight win or draw?
4898  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Taxes on gambling send the right message? on: July 17, 2021, 02:09:40 PM
our brothers may treat gambling as sin but it's a big help especially in third world countries, this is one of their cash cows.
The reason why some countries (most especially the Muslim countries) deemed gambling as sin is because some people will be addicted to it and lead to depression and what can result to loss of properties. If a lane man see the reason to why gambling is seen as a sin and just have fun with gambling while using only the money he can afford to lose and not affected emotionally by the loss and happy when gains, then gambling is not a sin.

I do not see any reason why you specified about third world country, the western countries are more developed and gain from taxes than the third world countries because they are richer.
4899  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sexy casinos on: July 17, 2021, 07:29:23 AM
I have never seen something like this in real life. In the United States adult-oriented businesses are sometimes not allowed to serve alcohol if the entertainers are fully nude. I think casinos would rather be able to serve alcohol than to have full nudity.
That is a good idea, anyone under alcohol influence is ready to do and undo, this can result to some that will want to rape. Whena alcohol is not allowed in your country for this type of services, it will make the casino site to prefer alcohol because it will generate more money than to allow some workers to be naked and no alcohol. The idea or the type of casino like this will not be able to generate income and many will be turned to nude house instead of casino because most people that will go there will have another ambition that is not related to gambling at all.

No wonder that plan will prosper as long as btc continue to grow unexpectedly, then try to learn more new things around you to prevent emotional battles by the time panic would tend to happen. That's what every trader encounter in every plans they had, because several factors will hinder your goals due to unwanted market changes. We need to consider those bad times, before achieving successful results on our precious assets.
There is nothing to worry about, when there is storm, there will be calm, when there is bull run, bear run will also later result. If there is bear run now and Bitcoin price dip below certain price specified, I will buy. Only people that can panic are newbies that do not know much about how positive holders should be. Like me I am positive that the price will reach highest price again and pass over it, it is not just that I believe this, I just know that it will occur.
