Maybe VPN usage is fine if you are in region which is not been restricted by their management.
There are some casinos that allow VPN usage if the purpose of this process is not to bypass location restriction. In other words, absolutely every casino prohibits you from using VPN is you are trying to bypass location restriction but you have to always read casinos ToS because some casinos completely restrict you from using VPN, doesn't matter even if it's not used for bypassing restriction and is purely intended for protecting privacy.


Some tolerate VPN usage but somehow encounter those casino change their terms and use this as  reason to block their withdrawal request. That's why if there's no important thing to do much better avoid using VPN since we know that the usage of that tool still questionable if this is really allowed in long run. Since its better to be safe than try to believe that there will be no changes to happen.

We can safely play on reputable casino like duelbits by using our real IP so there's no really any issue to get worried and use this tool since we think we can avoid it by using his. Reading TOS is always important since this could able to save those people who's still confuse on everything they want to know about the casino they choose to spend their time on.

I agree with you, sir. At the very least, before any one goes into Bitcoin , you should  have an emergency saving, and yes a steady, reliable source of income, so you don't end up using your holdings prematurely to sort out emergency situations.
While there can be a lot of upsides to Bitcoin, remember that the downsides can be sudden and sharp. Also note that Bitcoin  may have a higher chance of going to zero than many other assets. In light of this, it would be wise to limit your allocations to an amount you can afford to lose.

If you're looking to diversify your portfolio or are saving for a particular goal (particularly a short-term goal), Bitcoin may not be an appropriate vehicle due to its unpredictability.
In essence, what I'm saying is that firstly, before going into Bitcoin, you should atleast have a reliable source of income that can fund your investment, so you don't have to touch your holdings to handle emergent issues, and then, Bitcoin best fits long term investment, as in the long run the profits pile, but in a short frame, losses can be counted due to its volatility. I think I made sense .


 In as much as you are right in few of your expression, I dis agree with you mate, with your Short sighted way of spreading negative messages about Bitcoin by sounding so crazy in your narrative of what you think Bitcoin is, Bitcoin is one of the best if not the best when it comes to the world digital assets class and has proven beyond every reasonable dout about it's potentials from history since it's inception or invention , Bitcoin is not as risky as some people claims or proclaim but he I don't give a fuck about what you think Bitcoin is, because Bitcoin has made a significant outstanding performance, which gives you total control over your money, enabling borderless transactions, offering protection against inflation, preserving privacy, and as well creating an investment opportunity, Bitcoin is a save haven,  Bitcoin  is a store of value and wealth . You don't have to be dump and refused /failing to see the beauty of the potentials Bitcoin holds.
Throwing shade on Bitcoin wasnt the whole idea of the post.
What I'm saying is that Bitcoin works better for long term investors.
And it'll be sad if you didn't get that part, mate.  Also I implied the volatility of cryptocurrency in general when I said Bitcoin can fall, and all of that. Not necessarily that it's a bad investment choice. And making the said implication, is all with regards to  short term investors.

You don't generaliz the use and meaning of the term cryptocurrency in terms of Bitcoin and other coins, it will be best specifications should be made such that when you are referring to Bitcoin just be specific and say Bitcoin because Bitcoin doesn't have the same principle of operation with other coins rather there performance solely depends on Bitcoin, or perhaps it is a Bitcoin thread where long term Bitcoin investment is the priority the reason why it dominates the thread. However, volatility is a factor of Bitcoin functionality which is inevitable for a new growing asset class like  Bitcoin, but it is mainly a major problem for short term traders whose aim are just to maximize profits within the shortest time frame, whereas Bitcoin long term investment sees it as an advantage of accumulating Bitcoin without considering volatility especially when an using my stable process of dca strategy which could be weekly or monthly, for those worried about volatility the dca strategy is highly recommended as the advantages are too numerous the reason why it dominates the thread, volatility shouldn't affect our mentality because Smart investors takes advantage of it by buying more Bitcoin at a price lower than it's previous high.

This is the problem of those people doesn't know yet what they are referring on and they try to dive on something that they are still confused what to call it that's why usually they got caught up with wrong information towards what they are reading anywhere. Maybe he should consider to check back his current situation if he's really prepared for long term investment since he might be messed up everything if he's just been hyped with discussion but doesn't have any good plans towards their long term plans. If they are not ready for investing on bitcoin since they are afraid on its volatility and possible sudden fall then maybe they should not invest yet but rather they need to fill their heads with a lot of knowledge so that they are sure on every decisions they made and prepared for any consequences that might possible occur in future. We need to be smart on this since if we can easily get affected on some events then maybe we will fail for that.
543  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why do some people hide to gamble on: April 12, 2024, 09:12:46 AM
I was walking down my street this evening I saw some group of guys in a hidden corner of an uncompleted building playing WHOT games ordinarily I felt they are just spending usual time as friends and that they are playing the WHOT game to keep themselves busy while discussing.

But when I got closer to them I discovered that there was a dirty container close to them and inside the container is money they bet for the game they are playing , and if not careful observed you will never believe that they are playing bet games .

My curiosity led me closer to them I was interacting with one of them and at same time observing what they are doing , one thing I observed was that they stake with huge amount and they don’t give you change even when your money requires change instead you will use it and bet for another round.

So at this point I decided to bring it here to know or see different views from different intellects here on why do some people hide just to gamble or if it is the best way to gamble ?.

I know the reason why people hide their gambling activities since its either their environment where they currently belong doesn't accept this activity and take this as heavy sin or they don't want to influence other people to gamble to since they just want to face to consequences of all the actions done so people choose to hide their activity and don't tell this to anyone.

But if everything is open in their side and no people will criticize them towards the decision then also the activity they choose for sure gambler will not hide their activity since nobody like to sneak just to gamble since its stressful for hiding our activities since we don't want to be seen by those people who is not open minded on gambling activities and its consequences.

Sometimes I wonder who would have such an information at the tips of their fingers making clean cool cash without any stress be wanting to expose it to the public when they have not really benefited from it massively.

This has got me thinking as well because such information can likely be misleading and not accurate because sometimes they might even be using your funds to do something else under trial and error method to see the outcome of what they are doing but honestly, people who are not really fast in observations and are not fully into this stuff are the ones who fall prey for them.

These are supposed to be picks, not fixed matches.  Tongue

Anyway, I also think these services are often enough a waste of time. If you are serious into sports betting you can do all the scouting yourself, no need to pay for that.
Also, I have seen several times, the proof of wins just being photoshopped or even edited. Unless there is a real proof don't expect anybody here to even spend a $ on it.
Good luck though.
I doubt if there would be anyone in here who would vouch for this service yet as I see it to be a new development by the OP to test his or her ability.

If I can do the scouting myself, I really would not waste my time in doing all these because I can not trust the source to be genuine as I have not had anything with them before. If OP likes let them go and do Photoshop, the truth would always find it's way out.

If there's a reputable member could vouch him then maybe we can say that his service offered is legit. But if a random newbies came here then vouch for the service he offered then provably no change of emotion or the way how people will look at it since a lot of us will still find it suspicious. If people could just have time to scout then this is the action they need to do since this service will be total useless since by doing some research then see the teams we can determine on who among them have a big chance to defeat their opponent then take the win. Also base on the post on this thread it seems no people really trust what he try to offer so maybe its better next time for him and if he's confident to much that his picks are working then he should make his self rich first before trying to lure people to try his offers.
545  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What could be a comprehensive guide for a newbie here? on: April 11, 2024, 12:11:26 PM
As a newbie that wants to learn everything about Bitcoin, Cryptocurrency in general and BitcoinTalk to the point of becoming a pro here, what are their possible guides that can provide basic knowledge and also how to grow one's knowledge in Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency in general. I'll be very pleased to read about them so I can improve my knowledge in about Bitcoin. I'll reading the posts under this topic to learn as much as I can.

Even old time member is not pro here. But if you are consistent for taking up some participation on each discussions tackled by people for sure you can learn a lot of information which is helpful for you to learn.

But try to consider those suggestions provided by people here since from the links they post here for sure there's something to learn there. Its up to you on how eager you are to learn this since if you are just interested because you think its easy to earn then maybe you might just quit especially if you find out how hard to keep learning everyday and there's a risk that you can lose your money from wrong decisions you made so exert some efforts to learn because for sure in future its really rewarding.
546  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Health Benefits of Gambling on: April 11, 2024, 09:57:06 AM
Couple of points I want to highlight for newbies in gambling that makes gamblers not to get the health benefits of gambling is that, if you are doing the wrong approach, that's risking way more than what you can bear to lose, chasing losses, being addicted, you won't feel the health benefits side of gambling because you would likely be in depression due to loses, but if you apply the right strategy, being disciplined and following the rules of, it can relieve stress, helps stops overthinking because of the joy that comes when you must have won a bet, the joy, the happiness especially during when you are watching a game that is going in your favor.

I honestly don't think gambling has some health benefits. We may enjoy our time while gambling "responsibly", but that's temporary, though it is good for our emotional well-being, but that doesn't mean it is generally healthy. In fact, gambling is physically and mentally draining though. We can only think of it as if it's healthy both emotionally and mentally, but it really is not. Almost most of the time when we lose it will not make you literally mad and frustrated. Mood swings are definitely inevitable when a person is gambling. We might see someone bursting in laughter and huge smiley faces at some point when they are winning, but when everything went the other way, that joy and laughter will turn into a frowny face instantly.

There's no health benefits for people who are been defeated by their greed since their hunger to gain whatever it takes will give them stress and more troubles to come especially if the result will come as they became addicted to the game since for sure their life will be destroyed with that.

But if they are chill and know the consequences of the actions they done then their main intention is to enjoy with limited resources they deposit since they can afford to lose then there's still a health benefits they can get since it can trigger some excitement to us and enjoying the moment each game we play can relieve stress especially if we win can really be a beneficial to us. But majority choose the stressful way that's why there's a lot of people has been compromised by their wrong decisions made on gambling sites.
547  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy the DIP, and HODL! on: April 11, 2024, 08:57:32 AM
Buying of Bitcoin now it is the best time that you can buy a Bitcoin and the invest it for long time because when we entered halving I think that the price of bitcoin will skyrocket in value, so let us know that Bitcoin does not have a particular time you can purchase it and the key for long time it is when you have the opportunity to invest in Bitcoin is when you will purchase it and the serve it for long-term investment or short-term investment depending the level of your capitals and how you want this duration of your investment to last so buying a bitcoin does not have a time Factor you can decide to buy anytime you feel like

If we consider the future of Bitcoin we will not even allowed any current price of Bitcoin now to determine the goal of our accumulation that's why I still wonder why most people always expect the Bitcoin price to fall to a particular level before they could start accumulating because to me I see every price level of Bitcoin as an opportunity to keep investing because I'm not looking at the present condition but instead I'm being propelled by what the future holds for it because let's take for instance in the next 10 to 13 years the price of Bitcoin rise to $500k or above would you still consider the current price level now before buying?, so actually this is how I see the potential of Bitcoin that's why I'm not always concern about the current price.

You should understand that every one have their own investment strategy and plan because we have investors that ventures into Bitcoin for different purposes of which some are just interested in making little profits while some are interested in making a lot of profits and those that needs little profits are the short term investors and they are mostly the ones that waits for a perfect dip before accumulating whereas the investors with higher profit goals are the long term hodlers that can be patient enough and consistent in buying at any given price so far as they are into long term hodling. Your assumption about the price of Bitcoin in 10-13 years is good but the question is how many people are willing to allow their investments reach that level? Very few right? Looking at the invention of Bitcoin till now how many accumulated till this time? Isn't it few ones as well, so just like what I said about every investor having different motives about their investments but bitcoiners needs to understand the need for long term hodling.
I don't know why you are saying that people can invest in short-term, when we are talking about how to invest in a way so that you don't end up regretting your actions and wasting your time. Most people that think Bitcoin is a scam are people who invested in short-term because of their short sightedness and they run at loss, because they thought that bitcoin is is get rich quick scheme. The reason why one must invest in a long period of time in bitcoin is because of the risk level due to its high volatile nature. The long term investment limits the risk, and become future back up.


Don't misquote me, I am trying to say that every one have a strategy of making investments so you can't stop someone who chooses to make investments for a short interval of time also it is for a long term investor despite the fact that we are adviced to invest on a long term. Do you know that majority of people investing in Bitcoin does that for a short term because they can't afford to be patient and wait for their investments to grow over the years and sometimes you can't really blame this people because most of them don't have a solid income generating source where they can use and sustain their livelihoods till their investments is matured enough.


Well don't feel bad on the opinion of some people since they are just guiding you towards the right approach on how you can deal with your bitcoin investment.

Consider to read this https://cointelegraph.com/learn/day-trading-vs-long-term-cryptocurrency-hodling-benefits-and-drawbacks

Short term trading posses huge risk since its like you are trading your all capital in exchange with small profit but when you lose a huge part will be gone that's why experience investor avoid this since this know how risky this type of strategy and they go with more better option which is holding since they just need to plan their accumulation phase and then they wait for many years before they decide to sell and gain big profits with their holdings. Although its not easy since there are mental challenges that we are facing but if we practice ourselves to be more patience for sure we will ignore the thoughts about doing those risky trading decisions.
548  Economy / Gambling / Re: [SOLVED] Betnomi | Project status & Refund Plan! on: April 10, 2024, 12:45:40 PM
They are confirmed scammers, that's a fact.
Sending out some small refunds (also to me) is nothing compared to the bigger amounts they still owe.
Their silence and absence from this forum says pretty much everything.

The story about how and why they went offline was ridiculous in the first place and latest now everybody should know this was just another lie, just like this "refund plan" which in their eyes is "solved" now.  Roll Eyes

Dirty people doing dirty things. Hopefully their next scam project will fail. We as a community should do our best to expose these scammers as soon as the new project is running
Agreed. Their pathetic team member had the nerve to fire back at people who questioned them about their issues within this thread which was downright bizarre and abnormal in my opinion.

Some naive fools actually thought that Betnomi successfully made a comeback after marking the thread as solved. They need to improve their brainpower.

Now that its proven that all of this are stage then for sure they totally lose the trust of people since they cannot do any of this action for another time again since people will criticize them towards the past actions they made for fooling people on their fake comeback.

Also can't call people fool for just that since maybe some of these people are just hoping for their funds to be recover and also some want to see some issues to be fix so that no people will get affected for past controversy made by betnomi.

Now its all clear that there's no chance for this casino to give a good service so for sure all people will totally avoid them especially if they create new casino and try to lure those people again.
549  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: how do you think meme coinis? on: April 10, 2024, 10:23:37 AM
I often see meme coins on various platforms, do they really have potential? I’m not sure about their advantages, can you guys help me explain them?

You see it spreading its because they are riding with the hype and to many scammers create a token to take advantage of peoples want to earn.

So if you don't want to be a victim of those meme coin scams much better if you ignore or erase the thoughts of investing on any of those since there's nothing you can get there and getting scam is more likely to happen rather than gaining some profit with those tokens.

If you still convince that meme coin is good due to some several people earning with this tokens then even if some people earn there's still a lot more people losing their money because they didn't know how to anticipate on when those scam devs will pull their exit scam so think about it.

This means that if you want to use a VPN, whether free or paid, you need to confirm with the casino service first to confirm that you are using a VPN to pave the way because your IP is not limited to access the casino service you are going to.

And it would also be nice not to use a VPN at all, if we can access it without the need to use a VPN, there is no risk whatsoever and we can be much more free to access or visit the casino.

AFAIK, usage of VPN is allowed so asking the support will not give the clear answer which depends on what IP that you have used to access and its on our own that is why it's better not to use VPN at all or pay the premium and get dedicated proxy address for privacy purpose to avoid exposing your internet activity to your internet provider and nothing else.

Maybe VPN usage is fine if you are in region which is not been restricted by their management.

But if you are in those restricted list countries then better not to use it just to bypass the restriction since still you might really encounter some issues since I maybe guess that this is not allowed to do. If they are still skeptical regarding on this and to avoid getting any further confusion towards certain implementation or usage maybe they should contact the support if they have time.

But if they don't have or they are shy to ask then maybe best to avoid using this app or tool so that they can stay away on any possible issues that might trigger for using VPN.
551  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do we really need to blame fraudsters on: April 10, 2024, 07:42:39 AM
The Big Question

Who Is Really At Fault?


The Big Answer is BOTH

there will be no Victim if there are no fraudster , but there will never be a fraudster if there is no victim.

remember that victim is the reason why there are existing fraudster.

so lets not blame one but instead help the victim find a way to not become one.

But the fatal sin goes with fraudster since they are just taking advantage the weakness of people. We always see this frequently and people don't learn from multiple experiences since they are been so greedy to earn without doing less. This is the biggest mistake they commit and if they don't stop to find easy way to earn money then provably we maybe can't see those frauds doing repeated crimes since they know that they can still earn with dumb decision made by greedy people.

If investors would know the basic things on investment and be realistic the way how they approach this offer they see online for sure they would not be a victim of scamming.

Simple critical thinking is needed so that we can leave those scams crying for not getting any victim.

I believe some members are already knowledgeable about such but also I still believe that some aren't. The forum is a big place and any big platform that discusses crypto-currency is always a target for scammers.

  The forum has done so much to frustrate those fraudsters and I think it should be commended although this scammers are dogged with their actions. They do send messages to your DM with all sort of crazy format.

I have gotten some recently and I would be posting although I have edited the link so it won't be clickable.

I can only get true and comprehensive knowledge from the members of this forum

I'd be glad to talk to you

I haven't checked the authenticity of this message but it already spells scam. I won't even want to find out if I am wrong or right on that.

Be careful about such newbies, they come with all these enticing stories all to draw you in and then telling you how it's not a scam. In your best interest it best not to find out so don't even click the link. I would find better ways to protect my DM from such in the future.


Maybe he's just getting some personal inputs from other experience people by trying to interview those people seems interesting to him so that he can create a good article towards what he mentioned. If he just want to have you to be part of his content then its fine as long as there's no link that you need to sign nor you have been asked for some amount.

Maybe try to ask some sample of the articles he created to verify his legitimacy. But if you are not totally interested then ignore and its good you rise this topic so people will be aware if he send a DM to another person in this forum. But I have doubts about sharing the profit when the article became famous since maybe he will not follow that agreement. Also still we need to be careful receiving such DM's since a lot of deceiving message we can read from a lot of people trying to pull their crazy illegal schemes.
553  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Investing in casinos: Still a thing? on: April 08, 2024, 03:01:35 PM
I've been wanting to increase the number of my long-term crypto investments for a while now and I've already got like a good amount of BTC that I can comfortably invest without pulling out and I've checked Bitvest just out of curiosity and I've seen that you can invest in their website, I think I've seen it with Bustabit and Bustadice too back then, are they still doing that or is there like a lot of new casinos that are offering this kind of thing, I can't recall how it works when you invest in them so I'm going to ask (although I feel like stupid forgetting how it works), how does it work? And are there any other trusted casinos that are offering this investment? Is it a bad investment?

If you want to store your BTC on deposit and earn interest from it, you don't necessarily have to do it in a casino. Many exchanges offer a higher interest rate on Bitcoin deposits. I think you should consider depositing on an exchange. Exchanges like Binance, HTX, and OKX offer interest on deposit. If their APY is higher than in the casino, I believe it would be much more profitable for you to deposit on the exchange.

That's quite safer, however, investing in a casino offers bigger interest that depositing your bitcoins and let it earn interest. The same scenario when you are putting your money in the bank, the interest is very low, but if you gain a certain percertage on your investment in a casino, your investment will gain profit on a daily basis as long as the casino is profitable, it's like a compounding interest that you'll gaining.

So let's use Binance as an example, the APR is 4.5%, would it satisfy you? personally I would not even be satisfied on that percentage on a monthly basis because my capital is not big enough.

https://www.binance.com/en/square/post/849843

There's quiet huge risk for this especially we don't know how we can see them reputable especially for binance since recently they face a lot of issue due to some restrictions happened to them on some parts of the world and we might got an issue if our country will next to ban binance. So If I am the investor I will just let my bitcoins left stored on my wallet rather than putting it on exchange or casino since from there I can assure the safety than trying to risk on those platforms.

We all know that they are reputable but since I believe on not your keys not your coin so I guess letting our balance stake on other platform is risky action to do since we don't know how long we can't experience an issue with them since for sure there are chance that FTX schemes might happen again and to bad for us if our funds is there and same like situation will occur. To assure safety much better to leave our balance beyond our control and never gamble on an option thag give us low return but risk is so high.

Maybe he did a search in casinoguru with "luckybird" only and unfortunately that's the only one available in casinoguru. A bit unfortunate to have similar domain name for you with other casino which has bad reputation in a review site like casinoguru. I hope Slow death notice his mistake and apologize because he did a mistake to bring the review of other casino in your ANN thread. I tried to look deeper in the link posted by Slow death, it refers to luckybirdcasino dot com while your site is luckybird dot io.

This is why its better for casino owners to check first if the name they planned to used is already been taken by some casino and check the reputation so that  people will not point out that they are the scam casino.

This could really affect their reputation since if the person will just do a little research and find out that there's bad feedback towards the casino they are searching on then they didn't verify if this is the real casino or just have the same name.

Word of mouth is powerful and for sure if they meet someone who plans to play in this casino for sure they warn those people and get disappointed for what information they know.
555  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy the DIP, and HODL! on: April 08, 2024, 10:05:54 AM
My take on this Is buy when there is a drop in price, hold enough of it , whether Bitcoin or shitcoins, when it comes to crypto space we can't accurately predict the future,  some years ago specifically the early days of BTC one will tell you that holding enough of Bitcoin was risky, but that can't be said of it today, as it has gained more values, the same goes to other shut coins buy when there Is a drop in price, hold as many as you can , and maybe later in future you don't know what will happen,

When Investing in shitcoins you just just invest like a life savings in shitcoins, because you can't predict the future of that shitcoins, but a life savings can be invested in BTC given that the future of Bitcoin is already bright, for newbies DCA strategy can maybe be suggested to them, holding coins for a long term really pays on a long run.

Most things you are just saying Is off mate. FYI we don't have to wait For any drop in price before thinking of accumulating, this bitcoin we taking about, well I guess the reason you have such mentality is due to the fact that you have been In to shitcoins for so long which is bad ( and your post says it all). There's reason why DCA strategy is there for us to make use of. It gives us the chances to purchase bitcoin at any price interval. And I won't advice to use such strategy in shitcoins so that you won't endup getting self reckt so badly , because the risk in shitcoins are just so much , so please try to reduce such urge in investing in and focus mainly on your bitcoin accummulation to be in more safer side . I hope in that part that I bold when you mentioned coins , hope you talking about bitcoin so that you won't endup misleading newbies in investing in some shitty shitcoins.
You seem too committed to the DCA method that you tend to have forgotten that there is another method of buying called buying the dips. There is nothing wrong with setting aside some funds to buy when price dips and when waiting,  using the DCA method to continue buying without stop and waiting for the dips to buy lump sum. This is a kind of combined method which is very effective. I think most experienced investors apply this method and I recommend the method for anyone who want to fully take advantage of different market conditions. 

But its crucial for some people to do that since some of the investors doesn't have good patience for wait since usually they are preceded by their doubts and turns out miss the dip they are waiting for then get afraid about next movement and totally didn't take a good position for the time they seek for better position.

That's why DCA is perfect strategy for people especially for busy individual since they just plan their accumulation and can able to set their orders at whatever price they like then didn't worried about possible market movement since what they aim is for long term.

But if you have plenty of time then maybe its good to experiment what strategy might work for you since at the end of the day what's important is we fully achieve our goal is to hold and we can't be bothered by anything then we continue to accumulate.

While we are so comfortable about the potentials of the decentralized digital currencies such as the Alt and the Bit coins and its centralized exchanges in the blockchains, let's also understand that the Fiats has an advantage over it that you'd have somewhere to go to and someone to hold responsible in some cases that your fund in the bank is tempered by a theft or otherwise than that of Crypto that it's transactions is operated anonymously
Everything is life is not so balanced are when you're dealing with the sweetest parts of it, we fails to consider the bitter side of it.
Most of us as at times thought about how Crypto could dominate over financial exchange for payments without considering this certain advantage of the Fiats and also considering that most persons still lives a primitive live to cope with the digitalities of advancements.

Basically,no one is going to argue about that fact,and we're not going to replace fait in anyway because,it is the country's currency.That is no matter what happens,fait remains fait and it's still runner by the government.Most times,people consider fait's usage more comfortable and confidently over crypto.

Generally,I think fait can be in the space as or with bitcoin,but let's use the currencies for the purpose of their creation and reduce the comparison that exists between them.Mostly,you'll hear and see questions like,What are the factors that make cryptocurrencies more interesting than FIAT currencies? Here are some of the reasons:Definitely,there are reasons that makes crypto interesting over fait,and it shouldn't be overemphasized.

Fiat will really remain on what is current status and crypto will just be an option since for sure that government will give their favor on their own currency since this is their countries pride and for sure they would never let any foreign currency would dominate and replace what they are been long time using. That's why I will agree to people saying that fiat will remain since as long as government is close minded on what they see from cryptocurrency and they always look bad for it, for sure fiat will retain all the disadvantages and this is still the most used coin on our country and bitcoin will just be an investment for other people.

But for profitability we can rely on bitcoin since there's a lot more opportunity it could potentially offer to us an d its up for us to know which of those opportunity around are we going to grab.

I don't know if some persons are just plain stupid or ignorant. How can one has such an amount of money and keep it in a wallet that's connected to the Internet? How much does it cost to get an open source hardware device?

If he must connect his wallet to any third party website, why not get a burner wallet for this with little or no funds, so that if it gets compromised the loss would be minimal. Damn, this is sad.
You don't have to be aggressive this time around because ignorant is like a disease that peg in someone sucking their blood with being ready to eradicate it. This person might not understand how the crypto market works and they think they can just connect their wallets to random sites because of the promise that is going to make them get extra tokens. Sometimes it is gree that are causing this problem and one has to be wise about this kind of scenario because it's still happening these days. I have seen many people complain that their wallets are compromised and they where able to fall victims because they never thought of thinking before they took such a decision.

Being aggressive on dealing on crypto platforms are not really advisable to do since we need to have critical thinking or be skeptical on the project we see randomly online. And it doesn't really mean that they have good exposures in the community we can look forward with them and call them legit. That's why a proper background checking on the project also to those people working behind can give us a hint if they are legitimate or not.

Also people should not tempted easily on airdrop offers since usually hacking will start there. They need to be skeptical always and better have a dummy wallet on whatever unknown situation for them so that they can avoid to get a problem with those scam platform which the main intention is to drain the wallet of every user who connect their wallet on their site. There's a sad stories about this and people if they could just read those statement of people maybe they can lessen the chance for them to experience the same unfortunate thing happen to those compromised users.

Update:
asked my friend to KYC it's clear the account is not mine. He said KYC is taking an insane amount of time and asking for docs on docs but he's sending everything.

Lets see if they change their minds after he completes it successfully  Shocked

If you can provide a reasonable explanation on why you tip each other, you might have a chance. Your KYC process is not the standard procedure since it’s a requirements for an investigation for a possible violation of ToS.

It’s a good sign the Shuffle entertain your request to reconsider your issue by providing KYC. Please keep us updated on the progress. I’m curious on how they will handle your issue because this multiple case never resulted on players favor. Wish you a good luck.

Since the amount involved is " $850" as per scam accusation made by him, I think that's worth submitting a KYC documents. Besides, if you trust the casino to take care of your documents, there should be no problem here, otherwise if you say no you'll lose that  $850 that's already a lot of money.

Sometimes this things do trigger, but regardless, the casino can still ask a gambler to submit some documents for KYC purposes as that is part of the guideline they have being a regulated casino, so it's up to you (@odapoda ) and your friend if you'll comply or not.

However, since it's your friend is taking care of it now, the community would love to know the result of your effort.

The amount is huge that's why they are force to provide their Kyc so that they can possibly get that. Also since all requirements has been submitted as been said by affected person then I guess its up for their management to validate if there's some good news for them or they would just encounter the same issue and their case will be a serving lesson for other people not do use multiple account since there are a person who already experience a bad situation since they had been found out violating the TOS of multi a count usage on their casino. But regardless of reputation also I guess they could trust Shuffle on their documents submitted since somehow they manage to earn good reputation in this forum so for sure they would secure their identity since this could be highlighted and people will trust them more if there's no data leaking will happen on their casino.

Hopefully both parties will get a settlement and the affected person can get his $850 since somehow that is huge amount so provably everyone will be happy if they get their money and prove their innocence regarding this case.

Hi guys and ladies,

Sorry I can't share the Facebook post this thread stems from, as I lost the post, hours ago before deciding to bring it up as a discussion on this forum.

Like 6 to 7 hours ago, I was over there on Facebook scrolling my life-time away  Grin, I came to this post where the user was advising readers on how bad gambling is, being a gambler myself, I decided to open the post in fall to read and know what the dude is all about, and from all the story, it seems the dude went all in on a gambling sprey which didn't turn out the way he had anticipated, according to him, he had lost all his life savings (over $60,000) to gambling and it all started with a bet of $10.

And right now, the dude is all out to castigate and discourage as many that are willing to give him a listening ear; from gambling, all for what? Because gambling didn't turn out well for him, he lost his entire life savings, and he now believed that that is exactly how every other persons out there gambling will lose too.

What do you make of this, I honestly do not know but deep inside of me, I feel it's absolutely wrong to advice people against doing something, just because you did the same thing and it did not favor you..

Do you guys think it's OK to advice other gamblers to quit gambling simply because of your own bad experience, does your bad experience mean that every other gambler out there will also have the same bad experience?
I will like some really useful discussions around this topic.

Maybe its good to share his story since for sure he can pick up some good readers to learn from his experiences. But for giving an advice about not to follow his foot steps for sure there are other people will not learn for what he experience since those people will just ignore then said that that incident will not happen to them since for them they are in control and didn't take to much. So maybe he just waste his time if he give such advice to people who doesn't want to listen on other peoples advice. So maybe he just let his story posted and let people read and discuss about that since for sure there are several guys that can be touched by stories then try to do some counter action not to experience what they see  posted by random individual.

[edited out]
......I don't know if you were trying to say that if we must indulge in shitcoins that it should be at most 5-10% of our portfolio and this was only suggested for those that can't bear to stay away from shitcoins and at times people can't control themselves and would also want to invest more and more until they may find themselves investing more to shitcoins than even Bitcoin.

Exactly!!! Investing into shitcoins - and/or trying to trade for the purpose of generating capital in order to invest (or accumulate) bitcoin is such a slippery slope that we can question the extent to which those kinds of folks are delusional in terms of their supposed abilities to actually make progress in stacking sats rather than ongoingly putting their capital at risk which sooner or later is likely to bite them in the ass, especially if they attribute skill to luck and don't really know how to employ sound practices to ensure that they are sufficiently/adequately hedging their bets, which is not easy to accomplish even for folks who spend a lot of time developing various kinds of trading skills/practices.

Your right about this, people often seek the easy way out and don't realize that they are just fooling themselves, how can anyone think that trading with his capital would be a good means to generate profits to invest in bitcoin, when it would rather be more better that they just starting buying bitcoin which is a more safer option. Trading it self is just like placing a bet or a gamble, the outcomes are never predictable and in the process of trying to get profit you could also lose everything and if you had bought Bitcoin with that money it would have already started working for you.

There are so many flaws to this plan of trading to get profits to invest in bitcoin;

  • You could be stuck in a win and lose cycle and have never even realised any profits for bitcoin or you would be busy trying to recover from you lose and never invest in bitcoin.
  • There are possibilities that you would start using your bitcoin investment(if you are able to invest any )as a back up funds to replace loses in trading with the delution that you would get it back and eventually becomes a habit.
  • You would miss out on countless opportunities to buy bitcoin maybe cause you are losing in trading.
  • You would never be able to maximise the power of DCA cause there are possibilities that you have already used the money for bitcoin purchase to trade again.

In general trading is a risky solution in its own and its not a good idea to mix it up with investing in bitcoin or as a source of income, and it takes years or some people never even reach the level of professional traders to be able to have a good risk management to hedging thier capital, and a newbie should never indulge in trading with his money no matter how sugar coated they make it sound as tho its so profitable, and more over you might not be ready or have a good financial mentality to have a good balance with these practices, buy bitcoin and hold newbies, leave trading out of your accumulation plan.


They are just making theirselves playing on fire where they are not really so sure if they can able to earn a profit there.  And instead of earning some extra cash from those shitcoins they could potentially lose all especially if they think to take revenge and use their bitcoin holdings to invest back for thinking that they can earn back all of their losses. They might go on chasing profits or capital if that case happen and this is really bad for those investors if they came into that point. So much really better for them if they want smooth flow is to invest directly on bitcoin and never try to get hype with those shitcoin investment since they are just creating a messed for their selves.

Although there are lucky person who earn huge from those shitcoins but not all can earn the same fate with them. Usually there's a lot of people lose all their money because they got FOMO and caught up with the dump.

People should consider your invest so that they would have stress free investment and just find alternative works(freelance jobs) which can help them earn bitcoin then from that they can have extra funds to buy bitcoin again.

Trading is really risky so they should not think about mixed it up especially if they are thinking to grab those shitcoins since this is just a waste of time for bitcoin investors.
