I was reading this thread at random when I got to your posts, you have good points in all of your posts that I have read. It is not shocking though but suspicious to me, scammers are everywhere looking for ways to get their prey. I don't call this one a scam but any crypto lotto that is not so popular will not be my choice. There are many popular ones I know, I had better continue with them than try something I don't trust. I don't think that a serious lottery company can use only Ravencoin also. I believe they have a partnership, and anything can happen.
There is no partnership. I've just been using Ravencoin for development, because it's GPU minable, has an active community, and its transaction fees and price are low. Although I have not yet made any announcement in any forum or Discord channel of any cryptocurrency. When I started developing the website, I looked for a cryptocurrency that was in the Top 100. What alternatives did I have? - Bitcoin or Dogecoin require ASICs to mine. - Ethereum or based on the Ethereum network have high transaction fees (at least until ETH 2.0 arrives). - Others are not mineable because they are stable coins, staked or game/activity based. Your points are taken and are good as well. It shows that you know what you are doing, and I like people that can defend themselves constructively. Ravencoin is not bad though, it's only strange to me for that purpose. Still, it might not matter since it is truly among the 100 top coins, number 89 to be precise. I have checked your site many times, I will consider what you offer personally and might tell others too. Since this is a game of luck, I wish myself luck. Hope to share my good story here later. |

right now i’m in debt for $6k but i want to keep DCA. should i focus more on pay my debt down or investing?
Using the DCA approach is not the issue here, the issue is whether or not to do the right thing. As a person of conscience and integrity, if my debt payment date has lapsed, I don't deprive myself of ease by being under pressure, I would pay the debt first. Also, the best practice of investment is to only use the money you can afford to lose. Can you afford to lose the money? What if Bitcoin does not respond positively to your plans in the next 3 years, what would you do? It is reasonable to first settle your debt before thinking of any investment. |

I have always seen casinos as a form of entertainment, and I believe that if people saw that casinos are for that, there would be no cases of gambling addiction, in that sense, when a person knows very well that it is so, they only bet the money that you are willing to lose, no more and no less, because you know very well and understand that you can lose all your money if you make bad decisions and if you do not follow your own risk management.
If you earn more than enough for your financial responsibilities then it doesn't matter if you gamble for fun or profit. The possibility of earning a huge amount of money in gambling is what makes some people get addicted. We know that games on gambling websites or casinos aren't hard to learn so people who doesn't earn enough from their job sees gambling as a way to earn extra money. There is no man in the world who is contented with what he has. Normally they trying to make more money. Although we think of professional gambling as just a part of entertainment but in reality most people want to use it only to earn money. Those who do not have professional jobs are addicted to gambling. They become more addicted when it comes to gambling or casino platform. So gambler can get the advantages from gambling only when they deserve it. I like this and I respect your opinion. Yet, I will disagree with you, because I am one of the players that are only doing it for entertainment, so it is real. We might want to generalize things, but different people will always have their different reasons for doing things. I make a good amount of money from financial market trading, so I don't need money from gambling since I understand trading very well. I play casino with a little amount when I am bored instead of movies. If I need extra money, I will then invest in a viable business rather than thinking I can make it from casinos and others. |

Theirs nothing like gain in gambling, what is actually happening in the gamblling is grace to succeed, talking of greediness is happening directly in gambling, because i know that some gambling like casino and poker game their is nothing like greedy because as a gambler you have your own target of getting what you want in gambling.
Which direction are you taking it? No gain, no greed in gambling? You are taking it far and not correct as you contradict yourself as well. Try to know the difference between grace and luck, we don't have grace in gambling, we have luck, and grace does not leave you easily, luck does, it can appear and disappear at any time. That is why we possess grace, but luck is temporary. Aside from that, you might be greedy as a gambler, and being greedy does not mean the gambler does not have initial plans and targets, it is when the gambler does not care about them by being emotional while gambling. |

Is domain expiration a problem?
It is no longer, I just extended it to ten years.
Ten years for domain is more than enough, but you need to start with some marketing campaign for your website. I just checked players and most of them used Ravencoin, so that means there is no lotto drawing for Bitcoin and other coins, if that is the only way for getting rewards. People need to have some trust that you won't just shutdown website and run away when enough coins are deposited. I was reading this thread at random when I got to your posts, you have good points in all of your posts that I have read. It is not shocking though but suspicious to me, scammers are everywhere looking for ways to get their prey. I don't call this one a scam but any crypto lotto that is not so popular will not be my choice. There are many popular ones I know, I had better continue with them than try something I don't trust.

On paper, Borussia Dortmund should be able to beat Leipzig, seeing that Leipzig's performance is not good. But it depends on how Borussia Dortmund take advantage of the opportunities they have.
Leipzig is also actually not an easy club to beat, but now they are playing far from usual. However, Leipzig's opportunities in this match are quite open.
Leipzig have not started the league very well this season and in fact they are not playing as well as they did last year. That's why I think Borussia Dortmund will have a much better chance of winning in this week's match. Both teams have high potential but Dortmund seem more ready this season than their rivals and have managed to score more points so far. This will be one of the most competitive matches of the week  Yes maybe it will be an interesting match if Leipzig can perform better than before. But I doubt that Leipzig will be better than before. Because I see they haven't improved in the last few games. But I hope they can perform beyond expectations, meaning they can perform better than I thought and maybe they will win this game. Sure, I doubt that too judging by the few matches they have already had. Nothing serious happened, and the last match was even worse. Yet, I tell people to wait because this is still the beginning of the season. RB Leipzig needs more players as far as I am concerned, and the coaching issue is not really the matter but budgetary. Let's wait for what their stat will be against Dortmund on Saturday, but it can't be good. |

Previously, many people could not buy BTC for the reason that it was expensive and the amount was small. Is this already on the verge of Dropping Deadline???
I understand what you are referring to, yet you could have structured the question better next time. What I will advise you about regarding Bitcoin is that you should be the speculator of the price in the long-term dispensation to know what it would always do. And as for the bottoming of the price now, I don't think so, Bitcoin might still fall unless the weekly and monthly charts say otherwise. As for now, they are both confirming the bearish trend, so if you are looking for a lower price to eventually buy the crypto conservatively, you might wait. However, if you want to be an aggressive holder, you might buy at its current price since it is low enough. |

I was right to have suspected a retracement yesterday, but the retracement has slipped into what looks like a reversal now. This calls for a strict watch of the market today before taking a position. Bitcoin might want to start a ranging pattern, time will tell as the guidance of the 4H and daily chart are crucial at this time. On the 4H chart, the MACD is negative and the stochastic oscillator has reached the overbought regions. These might limit the power of the buyers today and send the market back to a lower price for a retest of the weekly low of 18510.77. While a further break of it will target 17625.00 (low of June). However, in case the Bulls gains more power and were able to launch a successful attack on the trendline resistance at 19772.77, then a higher level of 21825.97 would be unveiled.  Also, the daily chart has some interesting outlooks that traders should be careful with. The stochastic oscillator has had a bullish cross, this is a warning to potential sellers. And note that this would be aggravated if today's candlestick is positive. My verdict: The market might slip into a ranging pattern this week. This means that it might only have limited bullish power today before selling. But if it breaches above 19772.77, it has confirmed a buy signal.  |

I've been keeping a close eye on your thread after the failed break-out from trend-line resistance. Personally I wasn't very convinced by it as someone who prefers trend-lines to be connected by candle closes as opposed to candle wicks, or at least as many touches as possible without breaking candle bodies. In that respect, I saw this failed break-out as opposed to what you were referencing, for what that's worth. Anyway, I think we are both on the same page for how the current resistance trend-line looks: Sorry, I just saw your post today. One thing you should know is that the market is at times unpredictable and highly indecisive in movements, especially in the short-term outlook. All trading strategies have their fair share of that indecision too as they react to bad market conditions. That was what happened, breakout strategy could have false-breakout as many times as possible if the market is indecisive The reason for the last is the directionless movements seen in the past 9 days before yesterday caused by the sideways movements of the market. You can see I switched to the daily chart even before reading your post to see the broader outlook and to avoid being caught in the web of markets' indecisiveness. |

I was right to be careful yesterday, Bitcoin initially rose but topped at 20179.52 before diving down to break away from its sideways lower levels and bottoming at 18637.51 for the day. This is a bearish trend confirmed by principles, and it shows that the market might not have bottomed yet for the year as it has renewed the hope of journeying down to the low of June at 17625.00 The price action is negative on the daily chart, and so is the MACD indicator. The stochastic oscillator is also pointing lower in readiness for more bearish movements today. However, careful dealing is advised as well in case the market wants to observe a minor retracement before proceeding with the selling.  |

It is quite rare that he does not know what a casino is, since it is not necessary to have played in one to get an idea. By watching a movie in which a casino appears, for example, you get an idea. But I guess he hasn't seen one.
OP, there is no better way to get familiar with what a casino is than to gamble in one, but I don't generally recommend it because the math is against you. If at some point you want to try it, be aware of that. There are people who play casino games for entertainment but be aware that although in some cases you may leave the casino with more money, the long term tendency is inevitably to lose money.
With your explanation, I believe you understand this casino of a thing very well. I have read through this topic and know that the OP would have gained a lot of knowledge through it based on what I have read from posters. The entertainment aspect attracted me so much, there are many reasons and ways we play casinos, but what we do is one, which is gambling. I was not a player until I joined BTT because it is obvious that it is everywhere in the gambling and discussion section, and I need the experience. My playing is with little amounts and I do that mainly to replace watching movies and all that. A kind of another hobby if I must say, yet I must try not to get addicted. |

Yeah, I agree with you. Brazil is probably going to win this world cup, at least it has the best historical scores. Argentina is always a really good team. I would put Germany there instead of France though.
So, you have concluded that a South American country will win the world cup? I beg to disagree with you judging by their past experience and the present team they have. Maybe you are looking at the side of Neymar and Messi, they can't do anything, you can mark my word for it. I have always respected them for their good football, but have you ever traced their performances in recent times? Their team will fail but they might reach the quarter-final. Argentina will not reach the semi-final even if Brazil would. Mark my words. I will always bet on Germany to take this trophy. |

Cryptocurrency options in government affiliates may be just a trap for those crypto users so that the government knows who is using crypto. Governments that implement this method certainly have the goal of targeting taxes for those who deal with crypto directly.
If the government could go the extra mile for setting affiliates and traps because of crypto, then it must have been a total ban in the country. This is not in my case. Also, if that is targeted towards tax evaders, I guess it is lame because the best way I believe they can legitimately tax a risky asset like crypto is when a transaction from it is completed through the conversion of crypto to the currency of the country using the bank. Mobile banking? Commerical banks have mobile banking as well. Which mobile banking are you talking about? Those that deals with e-wallet that are not commerical banks? There is a lot of options in Nigeria. But the use of bitcoin is allowed in Nigeria, only CBN banned it, but Nigerians turned to P2P and no issue.
He might not know what we are discussing here because the issue of transacting with banks and mobile banking apps is just the same thing. |

A good profile you have here, and I like your motivation, which suggests that anyone can do it, it will encourage us to do more, especially the new members. But no matter how some better users post here, they might still not rank well compared to some lesser-quality posters. That's life, just like some better quality videos that will be unpopular compared to some fewer quality videos that would go viral. We have to admit that luck is also needed here even for someone to be noticed, not only efforts, which makes it sad. I think a dedicated page should be on the forum where anyone could request their posts to be reviewed randomly. This might increase the chance of being noticed more and being ranked up if the work is of good quality. |

Extreme caution is advised in trading Bitcoin as it repeated its indecisive movement yesterday, it bought and sold many times. This is misleading, and it might continue with these sideways and ranging movements until strong activities that could be caused by news or liquidity happens. Until then, I am neutral on the market, the daily chart explains how indecisive the market is. I will wait for further guidance today before calling for a direction tomorrow.  |

In Nigeria, as long as you do not take bitcoin and other crypto P2P trading towards business level, you are fine. In my opinion.
Bitcoin is implicitly banned in Nigeria, because the government are mute about it while only CBN is against it. The people that are still turning it to business means can find their bank account blocked, but bitcoin is not illegal to be traded amount people in Nigeria.
There are some countries like China, two to four countries in white African countries (the Northern Africans) and some other countries in the world, which totalled 14 countries as at last year that totally banned bitcoin and other Cryptocurrencies. But China makes it known that bitcoin can not be totally banned because of its decentralized design. But it would have been better if bitcoin is not banned in these countries.
Turning it into a business might not even be the major issue because many people are doing business successfully with it, but not with a huge amount. Those that are being traced and have their accounts banned had huge inflows whether business or not. A case study is a friend of a relative that used Bitcoin to receive payment from abroad instead of bank transfer. He became a victim, though the case is in court. Govt/country can ban an exchange, ban a centralize (custodial) wallet but they can't ban your non custodial wallet of course.
Don't say that, they will make accessibility frustrating for the citizens. First, they will ensure that android and iOS do not list them as their available apps in addition to the domain banning. The VPN will of course help but I am sure that many will not go through that stress but back out. I think if you want to withdraw them safely into your bank without worrying about Bitcoin being banned convert them into USD there are some sites that can do that but you need to have accounts like skrill, Neteller, Payoneer, or any digital currencies account where you can able to receive USD after you convert Crypto.
If you don't want problems with your bank account, then trade for cash or use payment methods that won't enforce your country's crypto ban - PayPal, Venmo, foreign banks.
Both of you have nailed it best! These are good points, some of the hidden ones that I had thought of as the most viable alternative solutions to P2P that are not often mentioned. Taking it through another route might be a very good one. Taking Skrill as an example, I could fund my dollar bank account directly with it using a low fee with any huge volume provided by earnings is legit. |

Got 500 lottery tickets via WoF , but didnt reflect when I check kottery stats.
It takes a couple of minutes to reflect normally.What I do is when I get a prize,I open the Freebitco.in in my phone home screen as I have added Freebitco.in as an app there and go to the lottery tab,normally it should show you the updated number of lottery tickets. I don't know if we should get to excited or not when we win a good number of lottery tickets as we are competing against a near 50 million user base here at the site so the chances are really low for us to win the first prize of the weekly lottery. It is good as you have the patience to wait, and what you have explained is a good guide to cool the nerves of some panic users. If any issue persists of this sort though, I report without a further delay, yet I let a couple of hours pass, even a full 24 hours, but I have never experienced that long delay with Freebitco.in lottery tickets. As for the 50 million users remark, you are right, it is unwise to think that anyone would get the lucky number. But it might still be you one day because it is a game of luck/chance, someone must be the winner, but just don't put your mind that's all. |
