521  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Should mentally unstable people be allowed to gamble? on: December 26, 2023, 06:28:29 PM
Recently I was around a physical bet shop close to my area and I observed a man who was shabbily dressed walking in the gambling house. I got into the place to observe what his intentions were. He walked straight to the gaming attendant, placed his bets in a highly coordinated manner and quietly walked out of the physical gambling house. From the way he was well organized, you will never know that he was mentally unsound apart from his dirty clothes and unkept hair and beard.

When I inquired from the attendant, she said he was a regular customer and that he usually raised money for gambling through the manual jobs he does around the area. She also told me that he has never misbehaved and acted violently in the gambling house so she was comfortable with him.

My question now is are there any moral, ethical or legal obligation to bar a person from gambling after physically observing that he is mentally unstable?

I mean that was just a normal kind of guy in the casino right? For the most part a lot of people playing a lot in the casino have that kind of mindset and just want to gamble and gamble daily and doesnt really care about where they are going to get the money if they lose it that time. I mean if you are concerned about unstable people for sure they wouldn't be allowed to go outside if they have some kind of unstable mind, you just judge that guy from his appearance but maybe that's just the way he is.

Whatever it is that you are concerned about the casino can handle it, most casinos have a lot of rules so if he did something against that rule he is for sure going to be banned from that establishment or probably gonna go to jail if did get violent on some cases just because he was losing money. But probably people that weren't good at decision-making were the people this casino wanted to play so that they could easily get hooked by gambling.

Governments and several organisations work to encourage responsible gaming. This involves establishing betting restrictions, offering support to those who think they have a gambling problem, and participating in self-exclusion programmes.

I dont think the government has some kind of program like this i mean they are the ones that kinda support gambling in the first place and at the same time this casino is a business where they are also getting profit since these businesses are tax, so probably it wouldn't be a great move for them, Most of the organizations that related to gaming and gambling do that is managed by the government like here in my country are just regulating casino gaming or probably just wasting peoples money since they are a lot of issues in this government organization, recently in my country, there was an issue about spending around 3Mpesos on just a logo. This is really overpriced considering the output plus their website was kinda of trash since it was recently hacked by some hacker guy just to teach them a lesson.

Probably the best thing that they do is to regulate and remove some of the gambling platforms that are not legally operating I guess it kinda helps since they can help us avoid scam websites etc if they actually do it since most of us doesnt really feel or see the things that they do if they are really doing anything or just wasting resources.

Hi Everyone,  Smiley

I have an online gambling related question. I don't know if this is the right place to post such a question, so I'm sorry if I posted in the incorrect forum.

I'm a Gambling Affiliate and something is bothering for some time. In most of the casino affiliate programs that I registered to, I can make a little amount of money or nothing at all. Did anybody encountered a similar problem?

Thanks,
Idan

I mean I think that was just pretty normal in a lot of casinos, most casinos were offering affiliate programs where you could earn a little amount of money for sure, I believed you could earn on affiliate depending on the policy of it since most of the time they needed to at least gamble on the website or do some kind of deposit in order to be counted as a affiliate it wasn't just inviting them and registering then you could easily earn a cent something like that since that can be abused you could easily just created a lot of accounts and count that as an affiliate so most of the time, the affiliate need to gamble in order to get the commission probably a small percentage of that.

If you didn't get any kind of reward you should read the rules to see what you did wrong, I mean there might be some kind of rules that you didn't follow that is why you didn't receive the reward if you sure that all of the rules are followed then you could report it directly to the casino.

An affiliate program is a legitimate strategy and you could actually earn a good amount of money here if you have some kind of group, YouTubers earn a good amount of money in affiliate programs through their subscribers.
527  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Between Physical and Online Gambling which makes a person more addicted on: December 25, 2023, 11:26:51 PM
I have been wondering with a little doubt in me between Physical and Online Gambling which makes a person prone to being addicted cause I have this friend of mine who doesn't know how to gamble online but when it comes to physical gambling he does it without compromising any of the consequences before hands.

Now it has made every little discussion that leads to argument an avenue to gamble, always ready to stake huge amount just to prove himself right. I consider this being addiction and I am always advising him to drop this lifestyle.

Do you think Online Gambling has the worst potential of making a person addicted?

In my opinion, both online and physical gambling can make you addicted to gambling whatsoever, it doesnt really matter what kind of form it is it is still gambling so you are still prone to getting addicted to it especially if you are doing it a lot and winning. I mean I dont think that you could easily get addicted it might need to be your habit in order to get addicted sometimes we just want to gamble since its fun and entertaining we want to try our luck.

We saw gambling addicts in physical casinos and even on online gambling your friend just preferred to gamble physically that just it, both of are still can make you an addict, I've seen a lot of people get addicted on online gambling since that is just the way they want to play, probably your friend prefer playing with real people or that just the thing that entertain him, I mean if you are shy and lazy to go to the casino you might just preferred gambling online i mean that is just the same since there are already games online that is live where you could play worldwide.
528  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: It is you who can't stop betting. on: December 25, 2023, 10:46:49 PM
Happy Christmas to all gamblers. I have been reading some threads and comments that many people have been saying that they find it very difficult to stop gambling (not only gambling addicts), but on one hand, I really think that it is not hard to quit gambling even when you are winning and not winning, but it is you who can't control yourself. Bets can not force one to stake, but a gambler can force themselves to stake a bet, even when he or she does not have money to bet. Some gamblers did not learn how to gamble. They just see themselves doing it, but they can't stop it. Why because they can't control themselves, even when they are not an addicted gambler?
What do we have to say about this?

I mean for sure if you can't stop gambling or you are addicted to gambling the problem for sure if you, that it would probably take a lot more discipline, and commitment whatsoever if you really want to stop gambling if you are a gambling addict. What I mean is we all want to stop gambling if it is already passing our limits and if already affecting our lives, but if you are an addict it is a little different since if you ask if he wants to stop gambling for sure what he is going to say is he want to stop gambling but he just can't, similar to other addicts like smoking, drugs, etc.

Addiction is not just something that you could stop if you think about it and then just decide you doesnt want to gamble anymore, you still gonna end up doing it. What some do is slowly gain control over their addiction, like probably slowly decrease their playtime until they dont want to play at all, do other things that are going to distract them, no points that are triggering them to gamble something like that.

Anyway, gambling is not bad as long as you do it on your limits, etc. so gamble responsibly and moderately.
529  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What happens if all Bitcoin is lost? on: December 24, 2023, 11:59:45 PM
What would happen if all Bitcoin is mined and all Bitcoin is lost?

I mean if all of it was lost it would not have any value anymore I guess since even though we know Bitcoin is a valuable asset if all of it was lost the market is going to stop already since we can't trade it anymore no one is gonna be able to buy Bitcoin anymore if all of it was lost so probably is it just going to be a cryptocurrency that worth nothing.

But today the lost Bitcoin cannot be recovered anymore so that just means that the supply of Bitcoin has decreased and can be a good thing in my opinion since low supply could easily increase the market price of Bitcoin.

To be honest if all of the Bitcoin is mined we dont really know how it is going to affect the market or the Bitcoin it self, but in theory that is when the market price of Bitcoin could potentially skyrocket since there was more Bitcoin that is going to be created anymore meaning that the Bitcoin is potentially gonna be super rare if a lot of people is gonna start to buy one. But at the same time we it is just theory since personally i dont know how the transactions, mining, network is gonna work if all of it is gonna be mine, but probably that is where it might start as a digital currency since it is the goal of Bitcoin.
530  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Know when to ride and stop! on: December 24, 2023, 11:44:19 PM
I mean I understand your point here there were really times where you got that consecutive win and that is the time you going to win big time on gambling, some situations where you're going to get consecutive lose of course after that consecutive win so dont get greedy after that good win ride since that's might be the trick to get you hook then your gonna get consecutive lose and lose everything that you win.

But at the same time even if you lose you can still get it back if you're going to bet double of it right I mean if you have the funds to play it you could easily get it back on this kind of game, it wasn't really some rigged slots where you always lose the game, its kinda impossible to make a winning streak on that game in my opinion, and it doesnt really need to be winning streak, I mean at some point you're going to win and win it all back if you're going to bet double of your first bet.

Anyway just gamble responsibly, it doesnt really change the fact that this is a risky thing to do so if you really want to gamble consider that money lost already so that it wouldn't hurt when you lose it and you could already control your funds.
531  Economy / Gambling / Re: Slot Educational on: December 24, 2023, 11:18:41 PM
I mean I just can't see how it is going to have an impact since there was no actual move for they do actually to fight gambling, I agree with the other members saying that it might even be the opposite since they are promoting gambling the way they did it because people might get curious about it when they see it on the parade and the people on parade doesnt really explain or doing really do anything only doing is a parade.

Probably parade can be effective on other kinds of things, I mean I see some of the people even in my country doing something like biking, it is like a campaign for bikers and they have such advocacy like "no to vaping" or "no to smoking" something like that. I mean that might have some impact since they do some kind of activity like biking, but in the long term we just can't see or it is not really effective.

We can't really stop gambling in my opinion it is going to be a part of our life, it's a business so all we need is discipline to gamble responsibly, and know our limits on things kind of things because, at the end of the day, gambling is just false hope.

Merry Christmas mga kabayan!   Smiley

Kahit noon pa ay ang laking tulong na talaga sa buhay ko ang Bitcoin at cryptocurrency since noong natutunan ko ito kahit ako ay estudjante pa lang noon ay nagagawa kung kumita ng malaking pera kung saan marami talaga akong naipundar at nabili. Like Motor, computer, laptop,camera, phone etc. This 2023 dahil luma na ang aking motor na nabili ko pa sa unang malaking kita ko sa cryptocurrency ay nakabili ako ng bagong motor na matagal ko ng gusto para sa mga long rides dahil mahilig ako magtravel at kumuha ng mga pictures at videos. Isa rin sa mga achievement ko is yung bagong work ko ngayon dahil sobrang ganda ng schedule maluwag, maganda din naman ang sahod at maganda ang environment compared talaga doon sa first job ko na hindi nila inaalagaan ang mga empleyado nila.

This 2024 sana new house naman ang mabili ko para rin sa pagdating ng araw na may family na  Smiley, also more opportunities pa sa work ko at sa cryptocurrency lalo na ngayon na nakahold pa rin tayo at naghihintay sa Bitcoin.

533  Local / Pilipinas / Re: Anung estimate price ninyo pagdating ng bitcoin halving on: December 23, 2023, 11:58:52 PM
Sa tingin ko sa Bitcoin halving ay hindi pa talaga tataas at magskskyrocket ang presyo ng Bitcoin sa tingin ko maaaring 40k$ -50k $ lang magstay ang presyo neto pero siguro mga 2025 ang pinakapeak ng presyo ay around 120k$ sa tingin ko at dito ko rin talaga binabalak na magbenta ng aking Bitcoin investment para makakuha ng profit. Marami talagang mga instance like noong mga nakaraang halving kung saan sa halving ay hindi nagiging dahilan ng pagtaas ng presyo or should i say na hindi biglaan ang epekto neto kaya sa tingin ko sa mismong halving ay hindi basta basta aangat ang presyo tulad ng iniexpect ng mga traders. Maraming beses na rin siguro akong umasa sa Bitcoin halving kung saan sa tingn ko ay malaki ang magiging tulong neto sa pagangat ng presyo which is true pero hindi nga lang talaga biglaan ang epekto neto.

If base sa presyo ngayon mga 40k$ - 50k $ talaga ang babagsakan pero for sure magkakaroon pa ng isang drop lalo na sa bitcoin halving or after Bitcoin halving so probably accumulate lang ng accumulate.
534  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Finally I did it (I am happy to join). on: December 23, 2023, 11:43:07 PM
Well, congrats on your first purchase, for sure it wasn't the best price to buy since the market kinds skyrocketed from around 20k$ but in my opinion, there were no better time to buy Bitcoin, so the best strategy is just to go Dollar Cost Average, buying Bitcoin every week or every month is probably the best strategy since you could easily accumulate Bitcoin and as long as you are going to sell your Bitcoin at a higher market price your always going to make a profit in the end when you are going to sell it, there are also some option or modifications that you could do on your investment like increasing your buying lower or at the just lowering it down vice versa especially if the market price continues to drop, it is a great strategy to increase your buying power so that you could get more volume on your every purchase.

Lastly, the most important thing in investing is the mindset, personally because of cryptocurrency and Bitcoin my mindset has changed when it comes to finances and investing, all of this is just going to waste if your easily going to sell it like you just want to buy something your just gonna sell your Bitcoin i mean that I not really how investments work.

535  Economy / Gambling / Re: What do you want to see in casino reviews? on: December 23, 2023, 11:06:48 PM
Personally, I read casino reviews if I am really interested in playing on a gambling website especially here in the forum, for sure the first thing that most members here will do is to check the legitimacy of the gambling website here in the forum, as you know there are a lot of scam gambling website that is not trusted here in the forum, so if the casino is considered as scam here I would not play on it for sure.

Casino reviews are actually useful, especially if you are just a beginner there are a lot of things that you are not familiar with at the start like what is the minimum amount or if you can really withdraw your funds after you just deposit? a simple review from a trusted member for sure is going to be a great help for newbies.

Aside from normal reviews that we see most of the time, most of the time what I do is what it is on youtube since it is just easier to understand, youtube tutorials in my opinion are the best reviews.

For sure your gonna need to actually use the casino or the website for probably a week in order to consider if you really want to stay on that website, so I think reviews are gonna be ignored if the actual website experience is trash, personally if I doesnt want a single policy of a casino I wouldn't play on it ever.
536  Local / Pilipinas / Re: [Tutoryal]: Paano gamitin ang Viabtc transaction accelerator on: December 22, 2023, 11:59:16 PM
Nice tutorial, hindi naman ako madalas gumagamit talaga ng transaction accelerator lalo na noong una ay sa tingin ko ay hindi talaga ito effective at gumagana, pero kapag congested talaga ang network at naipit na ang transaction mo kailangan mo din humanap ng possible ways na maaaring makatulong para mapabilis ang iyong transactions, Useful ito sa mga nastack na ang transactions since congested ang network naten at medjo may kataasan talaga ang fees ngayon hindi katulad ng mga normal na araw na 25pesos lang ang fees naten sa network.

I mean for members naman free ang paggamit neto kaya kung may duda kayo ay walang mawawala na inyo if hindi kayo naniniwala, sa experience ko ay working naman ito pero hindi lang talaga guarantee may mga transactions ako dati na gumamit ako ng accelerator na hindi ko rin masabi kung gumagana ba talaga ang accelerator.
537  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin create an opportunity to reduce poverty? on: December 22, 2023, 11:45:43 PM
It been a big challenge in most country since the fuel subsidy and bad economy some country  are facing.A lot of people find it difficult to feed themselves and families, Now it Christmas season alot of people don’t have transport to go their various stats due to the high cost of transportation,  bad road and insecurities in some nation, some many lose intrest. As a good country the government should have free bus for less privileged to travel home for season like this.that why cryptocurrency should be taught free to individual with serious mind, with the rate of overpopulation and poverty in the country it something everyone or most people suppose to learn because the world is going digital and our currency is not appreciating compared to other currencies and the value is so low.that why am suggesting that Bitcoin and altcoin should be taught free of charge and the knowledge should be pass to the younger ones since they are the leader of tomorrow let see how it can reduce the rate of poverty or eradicate poverty entirely in every Nation. The world is suffering and Bitcoin should be introduced in every nation and should be freely

I dont see Bitcoin as something that is going to solve poverty or reduce poverty at some point, I mean Bitcoin is a digital currency it's a great tool for sure but it wasn't created to solve this kind of problem.

Probably this is up to the government how are they going to solve or this kind of problem also it is a problem around the world and we dont really have a way to completely solve it because the government is just the ones that is doing things that causes poverty.

The way I see how it is going to help reduce poverty is through knowledge and education, with this we could help reduce poverty, if we have Bitcoin knowledge and give education to others we could probably help them to have a positive mindset that we already have as an investor, I mean personally when I learn about Bitcoin my mindset was really change about money and investing, I think it is one problem of the people having the wrong mindset being control by the government being an employee forever or just not having the knowledge on financial and investing.
538  Economy / Gambling / Re: Responsible gambling on: December 22, 2023, 04:36:11 PM
I am not sure if my post here got deleted or something, but I think I forgot to click post or something so I might as well do the post again.

I'm pretty sure I've seen this title many times here in the gambling section and it would probably be better to be move on to gambling discussions.

Anyway, I understand both of your points here and I think it is necessary if you going to start gambling and trading responsibly. At the same time, I think these two gambling and forex trading were not something that you could probably do every day where you could expect a huge amount of profit or return since the way I see it is there are always winners and losers here in these kinds of platforms. You could get positive results sometimes but for sure it is not possible to always win every time on these platforms. So just dont put a high percentage of investment on gambling probably a very low percentage of your income is the best thing to do, even on forex trading there are some traders that might tell you that is it guaranteed profit which is not really true since you could always lose your money on trading, similar to gambling there will be losers and winners.
539  Local / Others (Pilipinas) / Re: May 2FA Security Feature na ang Forum! on: December 21, 2023, 10:32:45 PM
Kakakita ko lang din ng annnouncement at talagang magandang added layer ng security ito dito sa forum, matagal na rin itong dinidiscuss dito sa forum if magkakaroon ba ng ibang layer ng security and kahit dati pa sinusuggest ko na din ang 2FA authentication dahil bukod sa ibang securities ay ito ang pinakamagandang madagdag dito sa forum.

Bukod sa Bitcoin address staking pagdating masmaganda talaga na mayroong ganito para hindi basta basta macompromised ang account naten dahil lang nalaman ng hacker ang password naten, since marami talagang cases na nalalaman ng hacker ang password naten lalo na kapag sa maraming mga accounts naten ito ginagamit like kung ang password naten sa facebook or something ay pareho lang sa password naten dito sa forum, so kung ganun ang mangyayari hindi ka basta basta mahahack. Pero kahit ganun kelangan mo pa rin talaga protectahan ang pinaka main email mo dahil doon lahat nakaconnect ang iyong mga accounts kapag nacompromised ang email mo nabanggit ni theymos na hindi makakatulong ang 2FA dahil maaari mo itong idisable sa forget password features, kaya ako pagdating sa email ay iba ang passwords ko naka on din ang mga ibat ibang layer ng security like 2FA, at sinusulat ko din sa notebook ang password ko sa email para iwas hack and kahit ako hindi ko kabisado ung passwords ko, medjo hussle nga lang siya pero masmaganda na rin since before mo maopen maraming kelangang confirmation tulad sa phone kelangan mo iconfirm bago mo maopen ang email.

So suggest pa rin ion naten ang 2FA at wag kalimutan ang Bitcoin staked address dahil magagamit talaga naten yan in the future in case magkaproblema tayo.   Smiley Good job kila theymos and PowerGlove
540  Other / Meta / Re: 2FA added on: December 21, 2023, 10:06:08 PM
Well, that was actually great news, I mean it was discussed here in the forum for a long time already and many members want another layer of security here in the forum. There are obviously some cases of hacking here in the forum where the Bitcoin address staking works fine as a layer of security when it comes to recovering your account. Probably the last thing that you could do in order to recover your account in case your email is already compromised, I mean that would make sense if the 2FA doesnt provide any protection on compromised emails.

Anyway, It was working great and fast, but didn't really use it since I'm always stay login on to my desktop computer, but added layer of security is welcome since it is going to be useful in the future in protecting accounts.

Thank You  PowerGlove,theymos   Smiley
