5301  Other / Off-topic / Re: What do you think about youtube/twitch marketing? Is it ethical? on: September 18, 2021, 01:06:38 PM
I still look at this marketing like a dirt trick to attract people with bankroll more than they are afford to lose.

Most of the times I have seen youtubers who were using high quality equipment, tech support, etc and had different casino themes on their video but were acting like an actors and were swearing that they were playing with their own money.

So, what do you guys think, is this kind of marketing ethical?

It's unethical but it works and gambling sites and Youtube and Twitch continue to do this and it will continue to be effective as long as they are getting new players to register and invest and do what Youtube and Twitch marketing are doing when it comes to gambling you have to do research not only how to play games and how they market their features and games and you will discover it's part of their marketing hype.
Their marketing strategy really helps them attract attention from people who watch Youtube and even if they paid Youtubers with some cash, the casino still makes a profit from the new gamblers. Maybe that strategy will work temporarily until they can find a new way to attract more people to come to their site and spend their time playing gambling. But related to unethical, that will be no problem because we do not know if the other sites are also doing the same thing as them.

Gambling at a young age can lead them to have an addiction when they grow and once they are addicted to gambling, it will be hard to solve since they know to gamble since they are young. Your idea to call an old friend and catch up or go outside is better than playing gambling together in your room because you will see that you have many things that both of you can do other than just playing gambling. If you can learn about trading, that will be better since you can make a profit and have the investment when you graduate in the future. It is better to prepare for your future than to get addicted when you graduate.

Welcome to the forum.

I like the design of the site. It is clean, free from ads and has a fast loading.

I only hope you can manage your site and still add more sites in the future or do other reviews from other gambling sites. You need to promote your site through your social media so hopefully, you can get more followers and, of course, more members who will read your reviews and play gambling from the links on your site.

For students, they can keep themselves busy by focusing on learning, if they are tired of studying and need a little entertainment, don't play gambling.
Moreover, not being over 18 years old is not a good thing to play gambling, there is still a lot of entertainment that can be obtained other than
playing gambling. I would suggest that students seek entertainment that is healthy for the body and mind, so they can focus more on studying.
Why not try playing football with friends, it's an entertaining and healthy activity.
At their ages, they should have to study and focus on their school. But well, in this pandemic, it seems, they have more free time to do other things so that can bring some of them into gambling games and they did not realize how the addiction works. They can not go out free without following the health protocols and that is why many of them are still at their home and spend their time using their gadget or computer. Parental guidance is a must in this matter. However, they can not always supervise their kids all day long because their parents have their jobs. Hopefully, he can realize how he must solve the addiction to gambling.

In some countries, school activities have not run normally, due to the high rate of the spread of COVID-19. And as you said, eventually children spend
a lot of time at home by accessing the internet a lot. That is what ultimately causes many children to access gambling sites, and the role of parents is
indeed important in supervising their children accessing the internet. Do not let children access gambling sites, because once successful trying once can
lead to addiction. Fortunately I do a lot of work at home, so I can supervise my children not to access gambling sites. But for parents who have to work
to the office, can hand over the supervision of children to our closest family or even turn off the internet network when parents go to work to the office.
I guess that is why the young generations have much time at their home and maybe they are bored and confused about what they should do while at home. Yes, what you said is right because I see many of them access the internet and do many things, including playing gambling.

Luckily for parents who do their work at home to supervise their children, including you so you can supervise your children directly and know what they did. Hopefully, other children in the other countries can take care of themselves so they will not have a problem accessing the internet.
5305  Economy / Economics / Re: How Bitcoin differs from gold on: September 18, 2021, 09:07:19 AM
Very soon gold will be less valued than Bitcoin cause the price of Bitcoin had already surpass gold which is a natural resources, being mined from the Earth crust. Bitcoin is a digital asset and it's value always depend on many factors moving it price to be versatile. Although Gold is also versatile, maybe some persons can choose Gold because it physical treasure.
If the material of gold is not much anymore, the price of gold can soar to the high price and people will use gold as a rare thing and keep it in a secret place. Bitcoin could be the same as gold as the number of bitcoin will be less but the value will be increase so high.

The difference between bitcoin and gold is because of the forms and we know that bitcoin does not have physical forms while gold has physical forms.
5306  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The greedy must be poor on: September 18, 2021, 08:03:40 AM
Most of the traders expect more profit with less effort so they are greedy without checking anything. After investing in less reliable tokens you lose everything and become poor that's why you need to check your tokens before investing if the price goes down you have to keep it without selling it when the price is high you have to sell there is a great opportunity to buy less. It is important to analyze new tokens before investing.
But unfortunately, they can not expect to make more profit if the market is not moving as predicted. We faced many times the market can change the directions after reaching some point and the price turns to the lower price without we realize. If you can not handle your greediness, you will not make a profit instead only lose your money but if you can stay calm in the downtrend, you can see your investment will grow in the future. Only traders who can have patience and not rush can profit because they will see the time to buy or sell the coin and analyze it before they do something.
5307  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will Dogecoin survive without Elon Musk? on: September 18, 2021, 07:02:34 AM
Yes, Dogecoin can survive with or without Elon Musk. We know Dogecoin's journey from before Elon entered the crypto a long time ago, so if Elon left Dogecoin, Dogecoin could still be on the market. Although the price can drop after Elon leaves, Dogecoin can survive and attract other investors to invest in Dogecoin. The Dogecoin price is now too high, so maybe many investors were already leaving Dogecoin for a while and moving to the other project that can give them profit, but they will come back to invest in Dogecoin.
5308  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: is crypto trading different from forex trading. on: September 18, 2021, 05:55:30 AM
Yes, it is the same globally but crypto will be more volatile than forex trading so you will get hard to trade in crypto if you do not learn to analyze. But basically, forex and crypto trading using analysis to know when entering and leaving the market and make a profit and if you can not do that, you will not have a chance to make a profit. But in crypto trading, when you are in the losing position, you can back to make a profit in the future if you do not sell right now because the crypto market can bounce anytime. Using $85 will be okay to trade in Binance but you should know how to choose the coin because Binance has many coins.
5309  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Zimbabwe minister urges citizens to embrace Bitcoin on: September 18, 2021, 04:51:32 AM

There is a great opportunity for this country to develop in the future, if bitcoin starts to be discussed and becomes the attention of the government in its future progress, but there are many weaknesses that will be faced if only bitcoin is given access to make legal investments, considering the price of bitcoin is difficult to reach by the people. ordinary, but at least this country is preparing a good step in the future for its people.
That will depend on how the government will react because not all of the people in the government will agree with the idea and maybe there will be a deniable from them. But if that way can benefit their people, the government should appreciate and try to allow their people to use bitcoin and start making money from it. Maybe it will help their people financially and if that happens, their country can solve the poverty problem. Maybe many things need to be set up before their country allows crypto to be used by their people.

Basically a country has to think about the development of ever-increasing flows, with the support of existing tools or resources, standard rules must be issued to ensure the survival of bitcoin or cryptocurrency in general, otherwise this will not have a major impact on all its citizens, many things are can benefit from approval of permits to manage bitcoin or other coins, as long as the rules are made not burdensome, both the cryptocurrency itself and the country that is starting to open up space for crypto.
The government will think about that and maybe they already do that without their people knowing because they need to research before they regulate crypto in their country. It is normal if they do that because they can not fully control crypto and all they can do is just regulate the provider that will use crypto for the payment system. Somehow, if the government approves crypto, that can boost their people's finances so their people will have another option to make money and if that succeeds, their country can grow in the future.
5310  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Timing is important on: September 18, 2021, 03:51:37 AM
Yes, timing is important but unfortunately, we can not always get in the right time to trading because we often miss the right time to buy the coin and not just about to buy bitcoin, but for the altcoin. I consider that if we have skills to analyze, we can at least enter to the "almost" right time.

But with more practice, I am sure that we can see when the right time comes to us to do something related to the current situation.

Well said. Given the movement of the market, the right time will be difficult to determine without analyzing the graphs and trends. And even so, it still possible to miss out on the right time. Nevertheless, whenever there is a good opportunity on sight, one must take it already because next times are not guaranteed. Indeed, more practice and patience are needed to make it on the right time.
When someone practice analyzing the market day by day, he will learn when he should enter and leave the market because he will get the pattern and know what he should do. Practice will give him more experience to know how to identify if the market is at a good time to buy or sell. Although he can miss a very good moment to buy or sell, at least he can make a profit and who knows, his profit will be bigger than the other traders.

5312  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Best time to play online slots on: September 17, 2021, 05:07:20 PM
Can you include, best time to play slots game when you have free money and you want to just have fun playing?
Aha, it is a good idea to add that on the vote so we can choose it because some of us will play gambling, whatever the gambling games names when we have free money and only want to have fun in gambling games. But maybe "Whenever I get a chance" can also mean that if we have money as chance can be determined as money Grin

A slots game was an interesting gambling game based on luck to make us curious how to win the game with our luck. Still, that needs more control not to use more money because the chance to lose the money will be there.
5313  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I think I have a gambling problem on: September 17, 2021, 04:06:00 PM
Looking at your post history you don't write like a 14 year old.  Grin Or maybe you are just really good at your language or you think like a mature man.
Gambling is suppose to be for fun but base on your input it looks like you are going overboard that you also have thoughts about it even at school.
As a parent and also base on experience, that is not looking good anymore. It's out of hand, you cannot control the urgency to gamble per day. It's an addiction.
You might want to consider looking for help or be busy with other things to forget about it. How about friends?

Ill take that as a compliment!

I have been looking into ways to stop me from gambling. On my home network, my dad runs a DNS server, sometime this week, im going to ask him to block a set of gambling sites on the DNS, so that its impossible for me to visit said websites. This is the best solution I can think of. Thanks for the advice guys! Cheesy
That is good if you can ask your dad to block the gambling websites so you will feel difficult to visit the sites. But I think you need more than that to solve your addiction to gambling because, in the other chance, your addiction can telling you to play gambling using a VPN or open the block by asking for help from your dad. Hopefully, you can slowly reduce your time in gambling and use your time for the other positive things.

5315  Other / Off-topic / Re: What do you think about youtube/twitch marketing? Is it ethical? on: September 17, 2021, 02:24:32 PM
We can say that is not ethical but for them, that is okay because they use their own way that is not usually like the other gambling site. So next time, if you watch those videos, you can skip the video and search for the other videos that can help you get what you want.

I think every gambling site will have its own way to promote its sites and that is one of the ways that they can use. Although that looks not right to us but we can not do anything except skip the videos.
5316  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I think I have a gambling problem on: September 17, 2021, 01:30:24 PM
From the @OP story, I guess he is now in addiction to gambling problems as he is thinking about gambling even in school. We suggest he stop his habit as soon as possible before he deposits more money and gamble. In his situation, he needs to tell his closest family or friends and ask for help to get out of gambling before it is too late.
I think telling family members and closest friends about it is the best, especially telling family members like mum and dad will help if they are understanding kind of person, these are the people that can help. Also if having wife, there is nothing bad to let her know if in a gambling addiction time, she will try her possible best.
Gathering all of them and telling the truth can help him release the stress, although when all of his family members know about his addiction, they can become angry with him. But that is still worth doing because his family finally will accept the situation and together can search for the way to solve the problem.

Uninstall every app on your mobile phone and VPN, close your browser's tab, do something else, and make busy for it so you do not think about gambling. Go out with your friends, have fun, so when you are at home, you will feel tired and your mind will be tired to think about gambling. Make many positive things out there and leave your room. You need to try hard to stop gambling.
If the person is using credit card to fund his account, he should just destroy the credit card, it can inconvenient the person but it can help, I have done this before and it helped. If I want to withdraw, I transfer the money to my mother's account to use, no credit card for me to fund my gambling account. But about crypto gambling sites, it can be difficult because of the ease to transfer coins to  gambling accounts, but maybe your method can then work.
I agree with you. Destroying his credit/debit card will also help him to prevent using his money to gamble. Related to the crypto in the gambling casino, he can give his wallet to his parents or other family members and ask them to limit his funds to gambling so he will always play gambling with limitations.

From the @OP story, I guess he is now in addiction to gambling problems as he is thinking about gambling even in school. We suggest he stop his habit as soon as possible before he deposits more money and gamble. In his situation, he needs to tell his closest family or friends and ask for help to get out of gambling before it is too late.

This would certainly be a great solution if you can so easily force yourself to give up thoughts of gambling before it turns into obsessions.  We do not know what the state of OP is, who, by the way, as he writes, is only 14 years old.  This is of course a dangerous age, but the good news is that he himself realizes that he can become a victim of his passion.  This is already a good sign that he will cope.  And more about blocking an account, even a cryptocurrency wallet - this is also a good way, but a responsible adult parent must be connected here - father, mother, older brother ... of this boy.
At a young age, his gambling addiction will surely put him in danger because his addiction can possess him to play gambling without stopping. No matter if that will be hard, with help from his parents and other family members, I am sure he will solve his problem and can lives better without gambling. His life journey is still long and it is better he uses it for school and searches for other things that can be his passion so his mind will not think about gambling.
5317  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Pancake Bunny is dying on: September 17, 2021, 12:46:24 PM
If the project is dying, maybe that project can not continue to compete with the other projects and it is only waiting for people to abandon and leave the project. But if the dev and the team can still work hard to make sure the project will still be alive, the price can slowly increase and maybe it will make another ATH in the future. It is hard to know if that project can continue to exist in the crypto market or not because that will depend on how traders or investors still support the project. Maybe you can leave the project for a while to search for the other projects.
Not any progress on continue to make Bunny coin pump to higher price again because the most danger why coin price dump suddenly developer sell their own coin. Many not trusted developer when their coin on higher price then sell supply almost 50%, before investing in some coin exactly with coin have higher price before like Bunny check how many percent coin lock and how many percent coin supply on developer hand, if you got more than 50% on developer better looking other coin for investing where have little supply on developer and much allocation lock .
Maybe if the developer sells their supply to almost 50%, they do not have confidence with what they did before so they sell it fast at a high price before the price is dump hard. If that happens, we need to be careful because they can leave the project anytime without any further information why they will do that. It is a bit not fair if they do that while their investors trust them and their project but they disappoint their investors. But that is what happens to the crypto and I think that happens in real life too, so invest what you can afford to lose so you do not have to disappoint too deep.
I think not hope nay more with price dump most drastically right now, from $300 become $3 its not enough reason why developer want to stay on their project. I believe they have sell all supply coin maybe 50% or more and earn much profit and start to build new project again. Better if you find the same developer with other project later with Bunny coin never invest anymore because they only take care with developer profit only without see how much loss faced by investor. Very hard to make Bunny coin back to higher price although 100$ above because this coin have left by many investors.
That is right and fortunately, we have so many altcoins, tokens and other new projects that we can use to invest in each of them. We do not have to back to their project for a while just to see if the dev is still serious with their project. While we wait for their update, we can search for the other project and make a profit again. When the price can reach so high to $100 or more but in the next downtrend, the price jumps down to the lowest price of $1, that does not make sense.

I do not often watch crypto chart patterns, but if I do that, I want to know where the pattern will go so I can make many strategies for anything that can happen later. Watching the pattern is part of the analysis and I think most traders do that to see where the price will go. But they will have their own analysis because we watch the pattern and have a different perception of what will happen to bitcoin or altcoin in the next hours. Watching the pattern is like predicting the situation on the market but there are other things that you should do to know or predict the price moves.
5320  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: How do you cope with the stress of trading? on: September 17, 2021, 08:28:50 AM
Take a break. Sometimes if you’re having a tough time a break is the best thing for you.

Trading wise. if you’re feeling stress or going through a rough patch reduce your size. Trading big every time does gets stressful.
We can not deny that trading can make us stress for some time, especially if we are losing some money. Only taking a break can reduce the stress so we can analyze better than before when we back to the market. If you think that sleep can help you to reduce stress, just try to sleep and forget everything for a while. Besides sleep, you can do other things that you think can reduce your stress so hopefully, you can refresh your mind.
