Not sure why he decided to bring up this old debate from a while back, but its cool we can talk about this stuff again without his censorship.
Yeah, seemed to be quite clear that his self-moderated rules were only in place to get applied completely arbitrarily: This thread is self moderated as it is for opinions on this topic only and I'd like to keep it that way. I don't want to censor people though, so I posts that are not providing an opinion or providing relevant value to the conversation will be removed and quoted in the second post.
(Obviously, I've not provided relevant value ) Funny how he ends up being the "relevance referee" in open discussions! Maybe he needs a dictionary to define the term "censorship." But, thats not exactly shocking coming from him. Well, happy to have a healthy discussion about the issue here, without posts getting deleted arbitrarily. There are so many opportunties where we can join a signature campaign from a service, where we can get behind... Or at least, where we don't fundamentally oppose what's advertised in our signature. And just to show how his arguments tend to distort reality: ~ Gambling is not good for health and mixers have a high rate of eventually becoming a scam, both of these are factual. No Dr. Phil! These are not universally accepted facts; they are your opinions. And, as we know, opinions can often be misguided. Gambling, by itself, does not pose a health risk. Im not sure where you got that idea from. In fact, it is a source of entertainment for millions of people around the world, and the WHO still has not declared a gambling pandemic.

Why do you think BenCodie needs to accept your philosophy in his life and can't have his own and vice versa.
BenCodie can accept whatever he wants. I just wanted to point out some context in the original topic and (no surprise), my reply is now deleted there. I've not violated any of his rules but if he doesn't want me there bringing the necessary context that readers will get the entire picture, it's up to him. My reply is archived: https://loyce.club/archive/posts/6305/63059641.htmlHere, anyone can write anything, no self-moderation, just forum rules will apply accordingly. I wasnt even planning to comment in there because I already know from his previous threads that he does not really care what people think unless they agree with his wacky views. Not sure why he decided to bring up this old debate from a while back, but its cool we can talk about this stuff again without his censorship. Only people scared of the truth or healthy debate try to shut down different views! Over the years, we have witnessed what type of people wanted to silence opposing viewpoints.

I cannot say I have ever used bitcoin for anything weird . Truth is, I try not to spend crypto on even normal stuff if I can avoid it. I will use regular money instead. Really the only times I break down and use crypto is if its gonna be better for me money-wise or it makes the payment easier or more convenient for some reason.

~ I'm confused, which is why I'm here. What's your opinion, fellow traders?"
Who really knows where BTC is headed next? The crypto world is famously hard to predict. This latest BTC jump is exciting to watch, but you just know there is gonna be some pullback before too long. Trading in these conditions takes serious skill. Some folks will scoop up coins on sale when prices dip, others will hang back till the coast looks clearer. Being flexible is key now - dont go all in. Being ready to change course quick when the markets get choppy and keep some some cash on the side just in case.

- At the footer of the homepage, I saw the "X" icon, I didn't know what is was doing there until I clicked it and discovered it is a close icon. It will be fine that you use the word "CLOSE" in red colour as the icon doesn't sooth there. It looks like a social media handle icon.
This "X" is a new Twitter logo, and here on the Tumbler site, it does not have the function of closing the page. I just checked it myself on a mobile device and clicking on the X takes me to the [banned mixer] Twitter account. Maybe it confused you because a new page opens automatically when you click, that is, the Twitter application. Just close it and you will be returned to the [banned mixer] site. Yeah. I saw that part of his review too and was confused. When I went to the Tumber site, it looked fine to me, so thought maybe there was some bug before that Tumber has fixed in the meantime. Also dont really get the complaint about the BitcoinTalk link. I feel like the Bitcoin logo makes perfect sense there. No reason to change it to something more confusing when the logo is so familiar already. Using BTT abbreviation instead could definitely throw some people off.

The SEC has been approving some ETFs that hold BTC and ETH futures. But up until now, they have put the brakes on any ETFs wanting to directly buy-in to Bitcoin itself. Their concern seems to be the alleged shady side of crypto market. Although some analysts think it is just a matter of time before the SEC gives in and people from Bloomberg Intelligence have said it looks inevitable that the SEC will end up approving a Bitcoin spot ETF. They figure it will probably happen in a batch, but nobody knows for sure when that day will come.

[banned mixer] Mixer Review Program #2 Bitcointalk username: Stalker22
Bitcoin mixers, or tumblers as some call them, have turned into a must-have tool for peeps who wanna keep their business on the down-low when they are doing transactions with Bitcoin. In this review, I am gonna explore [banned mixer], one of the newer Bitcoin mixer services out there nowadays. I didnt participate in the first review campaign, so this will be my first time giving them a go. Now Im no expert, but I know my way around Bitcoin mixers, and I used them quite a few in the past. From what I can tell [banned mixer] seems like a decent way to mix your Bitcoins if you're worried about prying eyes. Their setup looks slick and they got all the standard mixing options youd expect. I gave their randomize feature a test run with a few tiny payments and it did a nice job shuffling my coins around before sending them back to my wallet. There is still room for improvement, though. Security and anonymity: [banned mixer] is a pretty new Bitcoin mixing service. According to whois data, the domain was registered over five years ago, with the registration expiring in 2026. However, profiles on bitcointalk.org and X (formerly Twitter) platforms were created only in September 2023. The Wayback Machine internet archive does not have previous archived versions of the website. The site uses a free Let's Encrypt SSL certificate and relies on JavaScript for site functionality, but I did not notice calls to third-party sites, which is a good thing. They also provide a .onion mirror link for the TOR network, which is almost a mandatory requirement for anyone who values their online privacy and anonymity. Reliability: Although it is a relatively new mixer service, and they still dont have a history or reputation that we can take into account, all reviews and user comments so far have been mostly positive. And the service does not have any apparent red flags that we should watch out for. They have active customer support on the site and their representative on the bitcointalk seems knowledgeable and willing to help. For now, it is a good way to start a new business, and the reputation will come with time. User Experience:Alright, so let me talk about using this Bitcoin mixer/tumbler. Sometimes, it can be a bit confusing to use these type of services for the first time, especially if you are new to the whole crypto mixing game. However, the good news is that this is not the case with [banned mixer]. First off, The user interface on [banned mixer] is clean, intuitive, and user-friendly. They offer the flexibility of selecting from eight different languages, which can be very helpful if English is not your strong point. [banned mixer] also includes an FAQ section, which addresses the most common questions users might have. The actual mixing process on [banned mixer] is a breeze, involving just five simple steps: 1. Completing the captcha security code. 2. Filling in the necessary order details, which includes an optional Tumbler code, specifying receiving addresses, and selecting the service fee and delay. 3. Agreeing with the terms of service. 4. Creating the order and executing the deposit. 5. Completing the mixing process. User support: [banned mixer] offers on-site support through a contact form, allowing users to address any issues or inquiries they may have. Furthermore, you can reach out to their team via BitcoinTalk and Twitter platforms. Integration with different browsers: The service is compatible with different web browsers. When evaluating the service, I used four different web browsers (including mobile and TOR browser) and did not encounter any compatibility issues. Mixing process:Mix 1Browser: Tor Browser 13.0.1 (based on Mozilla Firefox 115.4.0) Order ID: UP5VHAK8-6117ET Receiving address(es): 1 Security level: Basic Service fee: 0.44% Delay: 16 min Mix 2Browser: Google Chrome Version 107 (portable version on an old Win7 laptop) Receiving address(es): 2 Security level: Standard Service fee: 1.8% Delay: 0min / 10 min Mix 3Browser: Google Chrome Version 118 (mobile Android 13 version) Receiving address(es): 1 Security level: Premium Service fee: 3.6% Delay: 0min Price and fees:Flexible Fees - Tumbler. io lets users pick different fees to get more anonymity. The fee structure starts at a minimum of 0.4% for the Basic Level, goes up to 3.6% for the Premium Level, and caps at a maximum fee of 5%. Additionally, a fixed fee of 0.0002 BTC is added to the dynamic portion for each receiving address. The variable part is pretty good compared to other mixers - one of the best deals out there. But that 20,000 satoshi fixed fee per address seems a bit high to me. If you are mixing smaller amounts, it could take a huge bite out of your deposit. Overall experienceAll my mixing processes went smoothly and without errors, no matter what device or web browser I used. The site is very responsive so it displays well on different screen sizes. I like that the system detects the transaction immediately after the coins are sent and the mixing starts immediately after the first confirmation. The only thing I noticed was that for all outgoing transactions, the transaction fee was significantly higher than what the network required at that moment. I suggest you address this issue and find more efficient methods to estimate fees, which would ultimately help you save on the transaction fees you pay. Positive Points:- User-Friendly Experience. The website is intuitive and straightforward.
- The website performs impressively well, even when accessed through Tor.
- The GUI is sleek and well-designed, making navigation a breeze.
- Multilingual Support. This is a big plus for those who prefer to interact in their native language.
- The feature to "delete immediately" for completed orders is a welcome addition.
- The dynamic fee structure is highly competitive compared to other mixers.
- The minimum deposit requirement is quite reasonable, allowing users with various budgets to take advantage of the service.
Negative Points:- Not a big fan of the fixed BTC fee for each withdrawal address. This may not be ideal for users making multiple smaller transactions.
- There is no easyway to retrieve an old order if you accidentally close the page.
- The website needs clearer explanations about "Tumbler code." How it works and what information the system stores.

$35k rejection round one. ~ Here's something to celebrate when it happens!

Hey there, Dextro1! Welcome to the BitcoinTalk forum and the world of crypto. It is awesome to see you here. To start, like some others said, reading Satoshi's original Bitcoin whitepaper is a must to get the core ideas. The sticky threads here also have some great basics, and browsing the Beginners & Help section has lots of guides and talks that will help. Dont be shy to ask anything - people here love to geek out and explain things, and can learn a ton. Have fun on the journey down the rabbit hole!

What the hell is going on?!

Alright, so, after a closer reading, this doesn't necessarily guarantee that the ETF will launch this month. However, I have a hunch that it might happen next month or, at the very least, by the end of the year. Preparations are underway, apparently.

Okay, like I have noticed that, as long as I ignored a profile, I will not be able to view their posts but the profile can successfully view my post, and the other thing is that, it is a bit hard to know whether you are been ignored by someone if the person didn't announce it publicly or telling the reasons why he/she decided to ignore the profile.
Yes you are right. It is impossible to tell if someone is ignoring you, even if they announce it publicly (as they might be lying). Its a feature that depends on individual discretion and cannot be verified.

What token are you talking about, does the casino have their own native cryptocurrency token?
As the other users have already explained above, the token is a play-money which can be exchanged for the available crypto on Bitvest. I forget about the rate of this token but I think it is like 1 token = 1 satoshi.
Nope, 25k tokens are equivalent to 417 satoshi at this moment. Maximum 1 million tokens can be exchanged in a single transaction which gives additional 500% in crypto. However, the exchange rate was different in the past. If not from this comment, i am not aware of any token development by the bedvist team and also how far the token has gone and what are the bonuses incentives on those tokens, although it's clear that many of those who use casino inbuild tokens are given special percentages and bonuses for using them. So I am sure, those who will be going in for these tokens are doing so to secure a better standing than others and that is fair enough to understand as long as the token will keep on performing its functions as a liquidity token within the casino and also trade on an exchange. That token that he was talking about is not a token in reality, it's just a play money and nothing else. However, i wonder if Bitvest might think of introducing its own token just like some other gambling sites have their own tokens. Having a gambling site native tokens may trend in the upcoming bull market when we will see some huge gains by the existing gambling sites token and other online sites such as bitvest might think to come up with their own token. Having a token gives another edge to the sites as people invest in those good gambling sites token and the sites can generate good income by selling their tokens and developing some interesting use cases for those tokens on their sites. Yeah, I am pretty sure Lightlord would have no problem pulling something like that off nowadays. All he needs to do is create a real crypto token using ERC20/BEP20 or one of the other popular token standards people use a lot these days and then hook it up to the internal tokens on that Bitvest casino thing to enable withdrawals. Although, who knows if he would actually bother doing all that when they already got that Eloncoin meme coin going on.

left me wondering if Bitvest has its own token and i didn't know of it, please confirm if the token you mean is some random altcoins that could be won through their faucet, or if the casino indeed have their native token. "Tokens" are basically play money on Bitvest. You can get some for free from the faucet and trade it in for bitcoin if you accumulate enough. I used to mess around on there ages ago so not totally clear if its still the same setup. But that was the gist - play money you could exchange for real crypto once you crossed some minimum. And by the way, i understand that 777 coin was also another casino that was owned by LL, any plans to bring this one back as well, and was there a 777 crypto coin?, what happened to it ?
I think LL said somewhere: only Bitvest for now.

This kept me wondering if Bitcoin is actually for every one or it is a scheme for selected individuals..
It is not for everyone, only for smart people! Seriously, some folks get scared off if you tell them to invest in it, even if you lay out the risks honestly and cant make people take chances with their money if they dont want to. But heres the thing - you dont gotta be no financial expert or tech genius to get into Bitcoin. Just dont be flat broke, neither. Make sure you got enough cash on hand to cover all your basic needs for a while before you put your money into it. Ideally, dont invest money youll need back in the next few months. Preferably years. Its a long game. So, if you got some savings and understand theres some risk, it could pay off big time in the long run.

To be honest, I do not like being wrong about stuff. Especially when it is something technical or exact, like with Bitcoin or other complex or technical topics. I have certainly been in situations when I thought I understood something, only to find out I was wrong or didnt really get it when I tried discussing it or starting a thread.
But its all part of learning though. When I realize I messed up or someone corrects me, I try to see it as a chance to improve. I appreciate peoples input and try to acknowledge mistakes and correct them. But usually I avoid getting into talks about stuff I have no clue about. Its different from just sharing opinions on general things - if you give bad info to someone's technical question, it can really screw them over.

TBH Rather than wasting money on stainless steel I would prefer each penny to be invested in the Bitcoin, You kind of greedy with the stoshi's.
What are we really talking about here? You can literally find stainless steel everywhere around you in your everyday life. So, I doubt that buying a small piece of steel plate for jotting down your seed phrase will break the bank. Besides, if you cannot invest in a backup solution that costs just a few bucks, it raises questions about whether you have anything truly valuable to secure on your cold wallet.

Is investing in Bitcoin easy or complicated?
I would love your opinion on this. Do you find investing in Bitcoin easy or complicated? Why? Is it possible to achieve success by investing in Bitcoin? The main thing is how one can earn if he invests in Bitcoin and if he stays for a long time.
It seems that you have already answered that question yourself in your previous topic: ~ But there is still time to invest if you want to make a determined investment as now the price of Bitcoin is very low.
