Even though I don't like the idea of gambling in generic video games, I understand that casino games are boring. Games like blackjack, poker, dice, etc., are outdated in my opinion.

Actually, if online casinos could create such quality video games, we don't need to gamble on generic video games (like DOTA2). What a pity.

Bluffing is not really good strategy if you do not know how to read your opponent. Failed bluff = big lose + embarrassed Smiley
Amen to this Grin
I tried several times and no luck. I think bluffing can be used in scenarios when you have pretty good cards (but not the best), so that opponent read you as "genuine." When you have shitty cards and then you bluff, you will surely lose.

tapi disisi lain lain banyak dampak negatif yang timbul karna pemborosan energi
Sebenarnya kata "pemborosan energi" itu kurang tepat karena penggunaan energi itu bersifat relatif dalam hal kegunaan dan tidak gratis. Ketika penggunaan energi digunakan untuk sesuatu yang bermanfaat, sifatnya produktif, membayar 100% tanpa subsidi, maka sah-sah saja untuk menggunakan energi berapapun jumlahnya sesuai kapasitas penyedia energi.

Dalam kasus penggunaan energi untuk menambang, listrik digunakan untuk mengamankan jaringan bitcoin dan menghasilkan blok baru, jadi unsur bermanfaat dan produktif bisa terpenuhi.

Pemborosan energi lebih tepat mengarah pada kegiatan yang tidak ada gunanya seperti penggunaan lampu hias di natal dan tahun baru, yang notabene ketika seluruh dunia ikut serta, WH-nya sungguh terlalu besar. https://bitcoinist.com/bitcoin-mining-energy-consumption-us-christmas-lights/

Meskipun demikian, ada yang berpendapat kalau lampu-lampu tersebut sah-sah saja demi hiburan sekali setahun. Semua bersifat relatif.

I understand those who are skeptical about profit sharing. Yeah, it sounds too scammy.

However, with the correct smart contract implementations, we don't have to trust the 3rd party to secure the bankroll and distribute the profits. I imagine the world of decentralized casinos that run on top of smart contracts, without having to rely on human's integrity at all.

Maybe it's only a gambler's wet dream.

This is only more the reason for more regulations to attempt to stop this sort of behavior, and I think the companies that are attempting to skirt these rules should be held liable for the problems that they're going to cause down the line because they won't ensure that their site (to the best of their knowledge) isn't being used by those under 18. Companies know exactly what they're doing and they're reaping the rewards of letting underage people gamble, though they should soon face the legal consequences.

This argument also applies to porn sites.
All online casinos can do is to put a disclaimer/warning sign since they cannot hire a bouncer to keep out underage people to enter.

What is your idea to solve this problem? KYC?
5546  Economy / Economics / Re: Cryptocurrency companies still can’t open bank accounts on: March 07, 2019, 03:55:25 AM
I don't know why a crypto company need to open a bank account,they can transac crypto currencies for their purpose.
Well, they still need to pay taxes in fiat, and you should know that at the moment not many businesses and shops accept cryptocurrencies.

However, I'm still optimistic that crypto businesses will be able to do AML/KYC properly and become legal in the near future.

Memang listnya masih banyak yang kacau dan terduplikasi (IOTA muncul 3x, Bitcoin Cash 2x), well tapi kalau melihat sejarah shitpost mas Jasmin, ane kira post ini sudah jauh lebih baik.

Oiya penggunaan istilah Initial Fork Offering (IFO) itu kurang tepat, seharusnya "Chain Fork" saja karena tidak ada unsur "penawaran" di sini. Pengguna hanya cukup mengklaim koin airdrop saja dengan gratis. Misalnya ada unsur penawaran/penjualan, nanti juga masuknya ke Initial Coin Offering (ICO).

Selain itu konsep Internet of Things (IOT) tidak hanya tentang kecepatan dan biaya transaksi saja.

So, I used to be an gambling addict.
Have you returned to the old habit, mate?

I was lucky that my friends and family helped me a lot to overcome from the gambling addiction and I did not gamble for long time.
I think you should control the craving mate. What you did was a "cold turkey" and won't be long to get that craving again.

Gamble with a girlfriend might help since she could stop you if you reach your limit.
5549  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Need opinion about Decentralized Gambling and Profit Sharing on: March 07, 2019, 02:48:43 AM
So "waiting" is the consensus?
By the way, some site has smart contracts open for review, but I guess the majority of gambler will not bother to review it, just like the "provably fair" feature.

2019/2020 ini akan jadi tahun yang menarik karena 7nm ASIC diperkirakan sudah mulai masuk di pasaran dengan Bitmain Antminer S17 dan T17 yang katanya 28.6% lebih efisien. Samsung + Square Mining juga sudah mulai ikut berbisnis di sektor ini. Prospek bitcoin sangat cerah apabila dilihat dari R&D dan investasi yang digelontorkan raksasa-raksasa tersebut.

Memang kemungkinan harga akan naik*

Hi, guys.
I notice that many gambling dApps were popping up in EOS and TRON. https://dappradar.com/rankings
And some of them offer house profit sharing.

Since I'm new in this gambling section, what do you think about it? Is it going to be "the next big thing?" or just temporary hype?
5552  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: People who gamble are degenerates, change my mind. on: March 06, 2019, 01:22:52 PM
being addicted does not mean that you will permanently atatched to something  . you will not be brain dead forever because addicted people do also recover if they want and if they are really willing to change thier life for a better  .
I had a similar view at first, but from my personal experience, once you (really) addicted to something, your brain will never be the same. Just like this quote:

Quote
Like asthma or diabetes, Fong said, there’s no permanent cure for compulsive gambling. “It is a chronic, long-term illness,” he said. “But it can be controlled very, very well so that you are not worrying about it every day.”
http://newsroom.ucla.edu/stories/gambling-addicts-suffer-from-brain-190668

Nevertheless, just like any other games, gambling is fine as long as you do it responsibly.
5553  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: People who gamble are degenerates, change my mind. on: March 06, 2019, 06:41:06 AM
In my opinion, gambling is not that different from playing games like PUBG, DOTA2, etc., it triggers "joy hormone" and give you a sense of accomplishment. Since young people often cannot control that urge to play (driven from hormone), they would easily be addicted, and in the end, their brain got permanently damaged.

At the end of the day, this is just about self-control.

(Prune Node Tidak Mengunduh Semua Block Dan Transaksi)
Sebetulnya ini sudah pernah didiskusikan beberapa kali gan, didiskusikan juga di thread yang ane tampilkan pada komeng ane sebelumnya.

Pruned node juga mengunduh semua block dan memverifikasi semua transaksi, bedanya, pruned node tidak menyimpan semua block sehingga tidak bisa melayani node yang baru muncul --karena node baru akan mengunduh semua block--

Quote
The difference between pruning and not pruning is whether the node can serve historical blocks to new nodes coming online. Everything else is the same; they can be miners, they will still receive all blocks and transactions, etc.

when a block is validated, the UTXOs are copied to a UTXO database and the UTXOs that were spent are removed from that database. Pruning still keeps that database and all of the UTXOs, so validation is still works.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5061961.msg47520120#msg47520120

Mudahnya, full node (fully validating node) itu termasuk pruned node dan "unpruned" node.
CMIIW 10xxx node tsb tidak membedakan antara pruned dan unpruned.

emang web dll adalah milik pemerintahan tapi ada baiknya jika nama yg tercantum juga ttd dan adanya stempel akan lebih kuat lagi secara hukum... karena saya pernah merima sebuah sk dan tidak ada satu tanda tangan dari kepala dan dikatakan tidak sah,...
Kalau ane lihat, dokumen di atas bukan SK asli, tetapi hanya salinan.
Kalau salinan setahu ane memang tidak perlu ttd (si pembuat SK) lagi, mirip seperti legalisir, yang dibutuhkan adalah ttd dan cap orang yang memverifikasi.

Ya kita hanya bisa mengasumsikan (percaya dengan si verifikator) kalau dokumen tersebut memang "sesuai dengan aslinya."

5557  Economy / Economics / Re: Does cryptocurrency have more black swan events than other assets? on: March 02, 2019, 07:38:43 AM
My criticism about this article is about the analysis method. It is strange when the author compares the markets (i.e., S&P, Shenzen, Shanghai) with the individual cryptocurrencies (i.e., BTC, XRP, XMR, etc.). I'm pretty sure the result is not accurate.

When comparing the risk, I think he should use market-market or individual crypto-individual stock.

2. Pakai MetaMask (diulangi 99x);
3. Pakai Keystore kalau kepepet.

IMO this is an easy concept, similar to the internet. Humans Users don't have to know about TCP/IP & HTTP to use the internet.

I'm pretty sure that wallets will get more and more user-friendly so that users don't even know they are using blockchain/cryptocurrency.

Well... when you see Ripple ranks above BTC, you shouldn't take this research seriously.
