Why not try them out? If it asks for KYC though then do so at your own risk. Not saying that it works, but some GPT sites do work and pay you when you do their tasks. There's swagbucks as a good example ( as far as my experience goes ) though they don't deal with cryptocurrencies as rewards though. And here's the thing with the 5-15 satoshis per 20minutes. They are legit giving you free money, whether it be the smallest amount you can get. You don't really have anything to complain about imo. If you want, look for better faucets then since there are a lot of better faucets imo and are guaranteed legit.

You can also try asking Reddit questions about whoever has tried using the site. I haven't really tried a cryptocurrency gpt site myself so sorry about that.
5042  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: CRYPTOCURRENCY IN NORTH KOREA on: April 25, 2020, 08:59:36 AM
North Korea is a place which I don't understand why still exists , the ruler should himself be hanged and the people have to start living.
The country is very unfortunate , if someone even talks about something that the government does not approve of , they are killed , mercilessly.
Cryptocurrencies ? People are not even allowed to wear makeup. The internet is something only the rich can afford , I do not think people will be able to use cryptocurrencies there considering what comes with it .
I hope in the near future we see good advancements there , peaceful where people can actually do whatever they want and not live like cattles.
Well, that's the system of how they grew tbh. Not like we could do anything there, since the government is basically nipping the possible source of problems right from the buds itself. Even if it was a small issue, as long as they could determine it goes against their rules, then they'd do it.

The country itself doesn't allow their people in accessing the global internet tbh, giving them no chance of actually trying to bypass the government systems that have been implemented. Probably only a select few even own some form of crypto, and they'd probably be hiding it itself somehow one way or another from literally everyone else. I don't even think that they have that much knowledge with regards to the development of cryptocurrency right now .
5043  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bloomberg report Bull run on: April 25, 2020, 08:26:35 AM
This is probably a view when taking into account that a sharp drop was what happened in March, not a gradual drop. This probably lead to the idea of Bitcoin slowly gaining attraction to the masses throughout this period, especially since it's at its lowest taking into account this year. Additionally, when compared to the stock market and gold, Bitcoin growth could be seen as one of the most captivating one, and one that also leads to quite exponential growth at times.

Still, it's just an idea of Bitcoin starting to mature. Starting is the keyword, and it might actually take decades before it actually matures fully. There would be various competitors along the way I'm sure since there are a lot of people that recognize the value of Bitcoin and they know that if they could exceed its reputation, their project would become an instant hit.
5044  Other / Off-topic / Re: What is your thought during ECQ on: April 24, 2020, 01:40:36 PM
Where did such bs even come from lmao. The vaccine isn't equal to a chip being implanted into your body. I get what your saying, but the chip being a vaccine is absolute BS. Yes, the idea of implanting chips and having it as some sort of techy thingy that literally help us do everything through the internet, as well as being some sort of tracking device. It wouldn't come to fruition though. All because it infringes on the privacy of a human, which is a very important right for one.

If you want news about the vaccine, stop looking at this type of bs up. Just look up Corona Virus Vaccine testing. A lot has been started and some are still just starting after a few days. No updates on one being good enough to be released to the public though.
5045  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Has this period killed your desire or exited it on: April 24, 2020, 11:41:08 AM
I just rewatch old seasons right now when I miss it tbh. It's pretty fun in its own way especially the old ones, kind of remind me of the amazement I felt in the past. Plus, E-sports are still up and going so that's one saving grace. I watch both sports and e-sports competition and I enjoy them both so yea. I'm more worried with the players though like they have close to zero motivation since competitions are postponed and the spirit of competitiveness is pretty much gone temporarily cause of that. Sports is probably the one thing that innovation could not remove from the culture of people tbh, it could probably only add on to that, like the current e-sports scene. 

As for my desire, nope. I mean, just like what I said, I still watch them. I can wait tbh and i'm more than willing to. Compared to them playing with the current situation, not playing at all is pretty fine to me.
5046  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Blockchain Technology stop Election Malpractice? on: April 24, 2020, 08:20:22 AM
Senseless tbh. The fundamental problem in election malpractice comes from the corrupt ways that most candidates do. Do remember that negotiation talks of candidates to be voted stem from them taking advantage of the problems most people have. They even bribe them at times (directly or indirectly). Plus, if you were to use a unique id for each user, then there'd basically be no privacy. The government could freely identify anyone registering since a unique id requires KYC. Even if we don't use KYC, users could then vote multiple times since there's no way to differentiate between each person. The current state of election is fine tbh, just that those on control aren't the ones that are fine.
5047  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Analyst: "Covid-19 Could Spur More States to Legalize Online Casino" on: April 24, 2020, 02:59:04 AM
Legalizing online casinos both have merits and demerits and honestly, just like what others have mostly said, it could disrupt the economy of a country since their money basically goes to a foreign country, which is honestly not favorable in terms of the development of their own countries. Still, there is a chance for a select few to actually become legalized, somehow like a central power. One that could basically prevent the said problem, though I don't really know much about it to preach it.

Additionally, I doubt offline gambling would disappear. It's a pretty big part of a country and I doubt they'd just goo up and disappear because of the sudden spur of online gamblers. Sides, it is what you have said already, the spur was caused by Covid-19. People literally have nothing to do, so why not gamble right? Then what if a vaccine was made? People would turn back to their jobs and a majority of those new online gamblers would probably leave. I'd guess only a minority would actually retain their gambling tendencies.
5048  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Crash game more risky ? on: April 23, 2020, 11:07:36 AM
Gambling games are riskier depending on the attitude you take on when playing. Doesn't really matter what game it is, if your attitude of playing is on the wrong side since the beginning, you can largely expect that you'd go home with a loss. This is on the premise that even if you win big early, as long as you keep playing you'd still lose the same amount cause of your greed. Crash games are pretty much the same as any other gambling game out there. It just gives out a different form of how luck can play you or with you. Still, imo, it's one of the easier games that could provide you with a small amount of profit if you keep playing it safely. It isn't guaranteed, but your chances are higher imo.
5049  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Many cryptocurrencies — how important is that for you in casinos? on: April 23, 2020, 09:04:42 AM
BTC only gambler here. I do use other cryptos every now and then but only when I have them at me. I have some extras whenever some leftovers are thereafter trading and so, I keep them and wait till I can play with them for at least 2-3 games of my choice. Having many Cryptochoices isn't really an important feature a casino should have, though it would be nice to have it. It's okay, but not needed much since most crypto gamblers probably have hold of BTC instead of other cryptos. There are a few who use other cryptos, hence the it's "okay to be implemented" part, but imo, majority use BTC
5050  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: This guy gambles and wins a total amount of £400,000 and quits while ahead. on: April 21, 2020, 12:38:28 PM
The jinx be true ngl. Though that may just apply to all of us, jinxed or not. Props to the guy though. Not a lot of guys are actually able to resist the temptation of stopping gambling after winning such a huge amount. The best chances of that happening are if someone actually has played for a long time, lost a lot ( more than what they won ) and finally achieving a big break, decided to not push himself. Most of those who gamble and win big earlier are most likely to be tempted to continue instead of stopping after all. You can commonly see such things as a scam though, in most cases where they just tempt the gambler to play by letting him win early on and juicing him out later.
5051  Economy / Speculation / Re: Currently Bitcoin has a very strong resistance? on: April 21, 2020, 08:22:40 AM
Welp price currently dropped through below $6.8k just recently. It was around a $400 drop from the highest price it gained in the past week I think? Currently fighting against the resistance of the $6.8 - 6.9 and I'm expecting it to go through quite well. Hopefully price actually breaks the current resistance and return to it's initial fight with the $7.2k. Though it might actually take a few days before a successful break through, and if it fails, i'd expect it to continue dropping till around the $6.5k range. And that's me being optimistic already I think, the worst that could probably happen would be us going back to below 6.
5052  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What can we do to minimise the risk in trading on: April 20, 2020, 02:36:36 PM
Does not trade count? Kidding aside, the premise of minimizing risk stems from how much you're willing to learn and study. Even knowing not to greed isn't enough since even if you greed, as long as you know the ins and outs and can confidently tell apart when a coin is going up or down, having a bit of greed is fine. Just don't let it overwhelm you since as well all know, it could lead to you basically being bankrupted. As long as you research about the market volume, current price, total supply, movements of the coin in 24h etc, etc, profit is bound to see you, maybe small but it's profit nonetheless. It may not happen at the start, but well, any trader is prepared enough to actually lose money.
5053  Economy / Economics / Re: Stimulus checks perfect storm for massive crypto bull run? on: April 20, 2020, 12:16:28 PM
Stop trying to boost the stimulus check as a reason for the increases in BTC price. It isn't reasonable tbh. Yes, there are a lot of talks about idiots rallying outside their houses saying the Covid-19 news is a lie, but really, a lot more people are sensible than them and would probably spend the stimulus checks on things they'd actually require to survive ( not saying that those who traded where those people in the rallies). Look it up, various news sites are announcing what people are using their stimulus checks on. @extasies source is one and it's honestly not that hard to find.
5054  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Price to hit $400k a prediction by an analyst *face palm* on: April 20, 2020, 09:27:55 AM
Well, it isn't impossible. Though adopting an attitude of believing one guy after getting one prediction right might be the wrong one instead. There are talks of the recession coming in after the latest events/damages of the virus impact were finished. If traders/financers adopted to use BTC, believed it to be a safe asset then really, the amount that BTC would blow up would be more than what we can imagine. It may even exceed the said price of $400k. Not to mention that most of the current supply out there hasn't been moving that much, leading to the situation where the current supply that is being circulated in exchanges is actually much less than the released supply after a decade of its release.
5055  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Share] Biggest wins in online Casinos on: April 20, 2020, 09:09:19 AM
Most people's mentality is stuck that hitting a jackpot in gambling can change their lives. The chances of winning a jackpot are really slim. To add, not all those who have won a jackpot had changed their life completely. There are people who had won a jackpot and had lost their fortune in just a short span of time.

The more people stick to this mentality the more they depend their fate on gambling, the higher the chance they get addicted to gambling. I know a lot of people who are gambling addicts who had won a huge amount of money and are still stuck on the same spot financially. Winning a jackpot might lead to a bigger problem, because most people are greedy and will continue to push their luck in gambling.
Isn't that the reason most people view gambling as bad/wrong? When initially, it was just a game that involves money. Sadly, a lot of people try to profit off of not on the game, but rather the people playing the game, making them go under debts and the like by basically tricking them to thinking they could win big bucks.

You could actually try and see if some gambling casinos record the winners in their gambling games. I found one with Cloudbet here and their pretty interesting games as well as situations.
5056  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I just think privacy is more important with financials. on: April 20, 2020, 06:52:19 AM

Privacy is important. But it is more important to stop illegal usage of cryptocurrency. We have number of incidents lately where cryptos have been involved in various illegal things like Dark Web Silkroad, NZ terrorist attack, money laundering, billions dollar exit scams like MtGox, Plustoken, ransomware etc. They have all taken the benefit of the privacy offered by the cryptocurrency. I am sure the community members don't approve of these incidents. If these were happened within the fiat system, it would have been more easier to brought them under justice! The privacy is probably helping the miscreants more than the common mass.

You can't really help but admit that for the overall good, identifying criminals is a lot better than indulging the concept of privacy. But well, there are various conceptions regarding it honestly, and you can't help but say that both are actually valid commitments. The idea of privacy being ignored probably stems from the fact that other humans see the information instead. If it were, let's say, automated systems, then fear would probably stop stemming out of the idea, though that's basically an impossible idea atm imo. You can't also say that wanting privacy is wrong, after all, a lot of people bs about the news of someone's daily life once they see something wrong with it, even though the context may actually be completely different than what was said.
5057  Economy / Economics / Re: US potential Recession and its effect on Cryptocurrency on: April 19, 2020, 01:02:26 PM
It'd probably be considered a safe asset at the least, all because compared to how the market crashed when the virus attacked, this time, it's an economic market crash. It is fully within bounds of what Bitcoin could act with, as long as well, people treat it as one. It is an asset that is reliant on what people believe it to be after all. If it was believed to be something similar to gold which is a safe asset, then you could expect it to be used in the coming recession. If it was treated as the opposite, then it'd probably lose a lot of traders. As for the other cryptos, eh, their not really a problem cause of the centralized system they have which in a sense, defeats the purpose of a cryptocurrency.
5058  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Tone Vays channel deleted from youtube on: April 19, 2020, 12:39:15 PM
It's just unfortunate that the large centralized companies don't specifically mention what rules were violated. That is not really transparency.

Well, I guess he could try his best to convince youtube, but I don't honestly expect a centralized company to listen to unfairly treated users. I would just try the safe alternatives or maybe the court?
Most crypto channels are banned for spreading false information/scamming people with their TA's that came up from who knows where and what. It contains some truth though, since some channels just scam peoples BTC by asking them for one and then providing them info about the movements of the market. Who knows where they got their TA's. You could say Tone Vays channel was just swept by the wave accidentally.  Since he informed YT about his legitimacy, there's no reason why he would stay banned. His channel is already back up tbh, Scroll up someone posted a link about him going live saying he's back.
5059  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What is the difference between cryptocurrencies and stockmarket? on: April 19, 2020, 11:26:04 AM
It's probably easier to see if something in the stock market would grow compared to a cryptocurrency. Stocks grow because of the company backing them increasing in value, hence any improvement made by the company could easily see growth. This just requires research and possibly some insider information, but that's another problem. Crypto, on the other hand, is more on the speculation side (mainly BTC). Its value is highly volatile because of the fact that it is only a speculative market. There's also it's decentralized notion and usage of blockchain which makes it different from how stocks are. There's also the fact that stocks would most likely not scam you, unlike crypto which had so many scams in the past decade.
5060  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If we are to start from beginning. on: April 19, 2020, 06:44:34 AM

I would like the supply of bitcoin to be higher then the finite 21million. I believe, this BS is very limited for the whole world and will be highly scarce.
Not really needed tbh. It's not like it's price is 1 is to 1. It can be divided to many parts and so. Do remember that 21 million is just a number. It can be freely divided so you can take it as actually 21 billion if divided by 1000.

I'd probably want those at the top to go down (or middle) and those at the bottom to meet them at the middle. Though I really know it's an impossibility since it's kind of like how 100% equality is impossible, I'd still like to see a world where the words those at the top (rich) and those at the bottom (poor) aren't used that much. Like how People only have minimal differences between their wealth, and the economy is growing at a peaceful rate together with the community.
