61  Economy / Service Discussion / Philippine traders need help! We want an exchange with p2p feature like Binance. on: January 03, 2024, 01:26:25 PM
As some of you may know, the SEC has issued a memorandum regarding the ban of Binance in the Philippines. This will take effect after the 3-month period, which probably started on Nov. 28, 2023, as the date of their advisory. While we have local exchanges in the country, their strict policies make many traders uncomfortable using them. If Binance becomes inaccessible, it could impact our ability to enjoy trading.

In relation to this, I am requesting existing exchanges in the crypto space that have not registered in the Philippines for a license to consider adding a P2P feature that we could use. GCASH, a popular payment wallet in our country, could be integrated, providing significant assistance to us.



here's the advisory;

Quote
“The removal of access in the Philippines is expected to take effect within three months after the issuance of the advisory, in order to give Filipino investors who have holdings in Binance to close their positions and take out their investments,” the SEC said.

Siguro dagdag research kung ano yung mga pwedeng gamiting alternatibo na nasubukan na rin ng mga kasama natin dito, sigurado naman ako
na pag tuluyan ng sinar yung access natin sa binance may bago at mga lumang CEX na irereview at matutulungan tayo nun.


Ang solution lang talaga diyan ay humanap ng exchange na merong p2p gaya ng Binance. Yung exchange na hindi nag ooperate sa Philippines at hindi masyadong sikat, for sure hindi pa ma ti trigger ang SEC kasi hindi naman sikat na exchange ang nag offer.

Tulungan nalang tayo, explore explore at share kung meron tayung makikita. Maganda kasi ang p2p kasi direct sa GCASH.. Pero matanong ko lang, wala bang instance na na block or na freeze ang gcash funds ninyo dahil related sa p2p crypto transaction?



Gumawa ako ng thread kabayan, baka mapansin ng mga exchanges at ma grant ang request ko.

Philippine traders need help! We want an exchange with p2p feature like Binance.

Ime Udoka was fouled, go to the free throw  Grin, missed both, LA called a time out and then Kobe says, no OT for a game winner shot.
Damn, I really miss Kobe. He may have been a good coach in today's era if he is still with us. I mean, his work ethic is at a high level and he grinds like there's no tomorrow for him.


I see him as the 2nd GOAT, next to MJ due to his work ethic and he doesn't flop a lot unlike Lebron which sometimes called LeFlop (Sorry LA fans) Smiley

Life is short, that tells what happen so we have to enjoy our life. The death of Kobe wasn't expected but his legacy will forever remain. And if we talk about the LA Lakers, one player that will come out in our mind and that is only Kobe, he is the best in LA Lakers especially for those who were able to witness the 90's era up.

In the top of the table match between OKC and Celtics, i'm taking the extra points with OKC. It's too good knowing three of their five losses at home have been within by four points or less. Even though OKC doesn't have the best record in covering at home as the underdog (2-2), I still think they'll have a good chance at covering when the Celtics aren't as great on the road(5-8).




Great catch, you were on the hottest team in the NBA now. After they defeated the Nuggets, it's not impossible to beat the Celtics at hom, and it happened.  OKC won by 4 points, but it was really the 3rd quarter run that gave them a very comfortable lead. As usual SGA took the lead and everyone played great basketball, OKC now is quite an underrated team, we might see them more often as underdog against a playoffs team.

Is it more profitable to run a casino with sports betting on their platform?
seeing that a lot of casinos have included sports betting on their gambling sites, I'd say yes. I mean, putting sports betting on their gambling site would expand their target audience which could result in more traffic on their gambling site, more gamblers, and then more profit( i just simplified what could happen if an online casino added sports betting on their platform).

Probably the cost of running a sportsbook isn't that expensive compared to the past, and that's the reason why an old dice site/s or casinos are already adding sports betting on their website. We all know that sports betting industry is the largest in the gambling industry, but only few were popular in the past therefore starting one might be too risky for the operator.

------------

You guys gave a very informative answer. Now, I think I could explore more gambling sites since I can be sure they have sportsbook as well. I can shop among the many on which gambling site offers the most competitive betting odds.
66  Economy / Gambling discussion / Why are casinos adding sportsbook on their platform? on: January 02, 2024, 01:52:29 PM
I just noticed recently, after exploring some of the gambling sites that advertise their company in the forum, that they have already added a sportsbook to their platform. There are even gambling sites with names like "dice," which, if we presume right away, we might think they only cater to dice games and other casino games.

However, when you actually visit the site, you'll be surprised to find they have a sportsbook too.

And I think that's is the thing, D'Lo did good during the IST tournament as far as I know, he did contribute to the offense as a guard/shooting guard with the Lakers. And so if they just keep on winning, those trade won't happen as they wanted their core to be intact.
Good but not really good, he wasn't shooting well, he was just 6-15 and scored 13 points. Although in other factor which is the assist, he had 7 it's not so impressive coming from a player with good contract.

What's impressive in that game was Reaves   who scored 28 points, he was actually 2nd to Davis who is the top scorer that scored 41 points.

But the problem is as we have seen, after winning why the Lakers play goes down?

Should trading their players is the real answer? Or is this another bad decision on their part again and they seems to really can't find the right players to blend with Lebron and Davis.

They made a good decision when they traded Westbrook, maybe this team they will still make a good one.
68  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Mayweather vs Pacquiao II on: January 02, 2024, 11:59:53 AM
Does Floyd really get that much money or does he lie? I mean, $300 million is a huge amount per fight, it's a one fight after all that finishes in minutes and I don't really understand what kind of income he should generate to receive $300 million per fight? Movies don't generate that much amount of money and as far as I know and can tell, Football is the most popular sport by views.

He didn't lie, in his fight with Pacman, he really get a huge amount of money, it's $240 million according to record, but there might be some income that wasn't tallied or reported yet so he is expected to get $300 million.

Quote
The boxers have to be pleased as well, with Pacquiao clearing $125 million for the fight and Mayweather raking in a whopping $240 million. It's the primary reason why it's hard to believe the two won't face off in a rematch, especially since they can market the second fight as the true measuring stick between the two fighters, assuming Pacquiao is back to full strength.

https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2492016-mayweather-vs-pacquiao-reportedly-generated-600-million-in-revenue

That's why this rematch is likely to happen as for sure they'll make at least $100 million individually or combined.

Please share it with us here, and please don't make your new years resolution like you will not gamble again,

Yes sir. And there's no reason to stop because gambling is fun, at least on my part because I'm still enjoying it despite the fact that I lose some money. You know, they say you win some and lose some in gambling, but in reality most of us here and long term losers, however, there's this miracle that despite of that we are still coming back, the reason is we are still enjoying it.

So for me, my New Year's resolution is continue enjoying gambling, because the moment I stopped, that means I'm going out of my safety net already.

I was thinking of starting something like a Powerball it basically follows all the same rules with the exception that the tickets are digital and instead of paying with dollars you would pay with BTC it will be fully legal backed by the BTC community would anyone participate in this is just a questioneer I want to hear peoples opinions

There has been the same idea that existed last 2019 but not already active now. So I guess you can run your own to as there's no such kind of gambling platform active now in bitcointalk

You might want to take a peek on the thread I was referring.

Looks like all the sig participants of Wild.io trying to defend the casino reputation here. It is slightly reasonable. But some of you are clueless about the whole situation and defending the casino, which doesn't make any sense. The user has already submitted a complaint at Casino Guru one week ago and provided some evidences there also. Wild.io team hasn't replied to that complaint yet (check it). Moreover, the representative of the casino is inactive here for since last 11 days.
If not with your post we wouldn't be aware that he had already submitted his complaint at casino.guru. I think @miastej2023 has to confirm if he and miastej18 (https://casino.guru/) is the same person, otherwise, there's no valid accusation here.

Also, what he posted were just copy pasted reply from wild.io (allegedly), he could have make it more valid, like a screenshot of the conversation, or his account balance before it was blocked.

This was also mentioned
Quote
for deposit i used trx balance which are on my trust wallet balance

Maybe he can post the transaction proof so we can verify.

I think it isn't necessary to create a scam accusation thread in Bitcointalk forum now as the complaint of the users is already active on a mediator servic (CasinoGuru). Has any of you reached the casino team by telling them to look into the issue of that user?

The best person to reach them is Hhampuz, our campaign manager if their account here is not active.

According to https://casino.guru/wild-io-casino-player-s-winnings-have-been-confiscated-4

But soon i think we will see BAD INDEX FOR WILD.IO

I think WILD.IO SAFETY INDEX:SCAM are good

They'll only decrease their rating if you prove something, but with your post, there has been no evidence and you have admitted it. (I'm a bit confuse with "from casino", you should be the one to bring up evidence).

So you can't bring down a site that is operating legitly.

but they stolen 13500 usd

no any evidence are presented from casino site, just stolen money
and i want to inform all possible people to do not play here
73  Economy / Gambling / Re: ✨ Shuffle.com | The next generation of crypto casinos | Sports, Casino + token on: January 01, 2024, 03:13:41 AM
I agree with, although I may say that it's a good way to promote accepting LN but not everyone are fully aware of it though. Still, I think majority will prefer using altcoins than LN ( but we never know).

I just checked my Shuffle account to see the deposit option, I see they have 11 altcoins available, so you can choose one among the many to deposit. They have USDT((I'm assuming TRC20), and other altcoins that doesn't require a high fee using their network.
I also don't like the Lightning Network because I have never used it at all in addition to the fact that the lightning network is still not popular with many people and it may be true what is said above, honestly now altcoins are an alternative where they can choose more simply in small and cheap transactions.

I have also deposited Bitcoin into shuffle with a fee of $8 which is heavy for me but because it was free BTC that I got so I decided to deposit there.

But the best choice is TRON including USDT TRC20 with a fee of $1 from exchange withdrawal to Shuffle.

For me that's really the coin that is very suitable for gambling, not only it's transaction fee is cheap and fast to confirm, you can also make sure that you won't be affected by crypto price volatility. That way, you'll be able to focus on winning alone and will not have to worry if the value of your currency will drop over time. Liquidity wise, it's easy to trade this coin as most of the major exchanges have a decent volume on USDT TR20 if traded with other coin.
74  Economy / Gambling / Re: ✨ Shuffle.com | The next generation of crypto casinos | Sports, Casino + token on: December 31, 2023, 02:04:39 PM
ndumm and Shuffle admins, a mere suggestion. Because of the current network congestion happening in the Bitcoin network caused by Ordinals/BRC-20, may I suggest that the casino consider accepting Bitcoin deposits/withdrawals through the Lightning Network? I believe it could also be an opportunity to promote Lightning as an alternative and widen your network of users as well.

Perhaps giving free-spins/bonuses for every deposit through Lightning might encourage Bitcoiners to open a new path/method to use Bitcoin?

Just use Altcoins that has cheap fee and fast transaction confirmation like Tron, BSC and many more instead of using LN since you will still need to convert your Bitcoin to LN in able to deposit on it. Besides LN is still not popular among gamblers as an alternative to cut transaction fee compared on using altcoins.

I believe having a built-in exchange is more helpful to have a temporary solution over transaction fee since gambler can send directly Bitcoin to Casino and then just convert it to altcoin on the casino exchange to save fee for withdrawal.

I agree with, although I may say that it's a good way to promote accepting LN but not everyone are fully aware of it though. Still, I think majority will prefer using altcoins than LN ( but we never know).

I just checked my Shuffle account to see the deposit option, I see they have 11 altcoins available, so you can choose one among the many to deposit. They have USDT((I'm assuming TRC20), and other altcoins that doesn't require a high fee using their network.

Though watching Casimero from his previous fight he's no longer the same Champ that fans really loves to see inside the ring, but for sure if things happen to his direction and give that opportunity to face Inoue, I'm pretty sure that he will still give that confrontation and possible to shake Inoue, like what you just said, Casimero is also a heavy puncher and not afraid in any face to face exchanges of punches he loves that way of fighting too.


Inoue's camp probably thinking that Casimero is not worthy as an opponent because he was impressive on his previous fights, but during the time when Casimero was doing great, they didn't even bother to talk about fighting him, so they can't blame the fans of Casimero to think that they are just dodging Casimero.

And some people thought that Inoue is greater than Pacman, they are wrong.

Inoue is 30 years old, let's try to make a research on the fighterst that Pacman beat when he is at his 30's.
Checked his fights 2008 and below. (https://boxrec.com/en/proboxer/6129)

Finally! Pistons got the win after the worst losing streak in history and Raptors is the victim. Smiley
I had Cunningham 28+ points bet but Markkanen blew my parlay. He shot 0/7 behind the 3-pt line and could score only 12. Whatever, Pistons won tonight and that's the only important news.
I believe this was one of the surprises at the end of 2023 lol
Even so, it was a very competitive and fierce game... the statistics were similar between the Pistons and Raptors.
Cunningham once again played an important role in the Piston's victory.
I'd say they were lucky to survive a 2 point victory only. Cunningham played well here, he was the best scorer but everyone was playing great basketball with 5 players more from this team scored a double digit. They are due for a win though, they just fell short against the Celtics, but it's a nice way to end the losing streak on their home court.

Detroit's next game will be against the Rockets, can the Pistons win this game?

Nope, I think they'll start losing again. Rockets need a win and I think they'll play harder this time beating the Pistons with a huge margin.
I hope they'll not break their losing streak this season with another one ( if there are more than 28 games remaining).

You  said about casino guru, we can see, that at this moment they already have on 5.9, not 8.1 like before.
I check the casino guru review website but it seems there's a problem loading with my browser, tried both google chrome and brave, still the same.
All I see is the word "Safety Index:High", which means you are safe playing here, didn't see the rating though.

At this moment a lot of complains with wild.io. This casino block users who win usning bonus system. So everyone need to know, wild.io scam casino
This is a mere accusation to destroy the reputation of the gambling site if you can't support it with evidence.
When you say lot, it should be more than one, provide proof on this please.

wild.io scam casino real review
This is your personal review, right? As I mentioned, provide proof.

Regarding on ways to access Binance after the ban, I think you might want to check this reddit post.
I know this is risky but will this work if I still want to use Binance in the PH after "the Ban"?

Puro positive ang discussion diyan, at medyo optimistic na rin ako na hindi totally mawawala ang access natin sa Binance dahil maraming paraan.

Sorry coins.ph, parang mga tao gusto talaga ang Binance, simple lang kasi unlike our local exchange/s.
79  Local / Pamilihan / Re: Banning ng Binance App sa Pinas on: December 30, 2023, 01:34:50 PM
     -   Meron akong napanuod kanina sa youtube hindi ko lang matandaan kung anung name ng channel, na kung saan isang lawyer nagsasalita sa video na sinasabi nya na hindi kayang magawa ng Sec na maipablock ang website ng Binance dito sa ating bansa unless meron ourt order na nagsasabi na iblock na ang binance website nila dito sa ating bansa.

So nung napanuod ko yun, ibig sabihin posible na maextend pa nga yang 90 days na sinasabi sa mga news kamakailan lang tungkol dito sa Binance na ating pinag-uusapan dito.

Mas mabuti lagay mo ang link kung saan galing ang video kabayan para mapanood din natin.

Actually, ang SEC ay government agency naman yan, at base naman sa nabasa natin, hindi naman sila ang mag block kung hindi humingi sila ng tulong sa NTC which is also a government agency, so ang mangyayari nito ay inter agency communication lang.

Ito kasi ang scenario, hindi pwedeng i pag laban ng Binance ang karapatan nila kasi wala nga naman silang permit, illegal ang operation nila dito sa bansa natin. Regarding naman sa pag access ng website, kung mag order ang NTC to our main telcos na i block ang access ang Binance.com, mangyayari talaga yan, actually napaka dali lang gawin yan.

As to court order, madali lang lumabas yan kasi hindi naman nag object ang Binance.
80  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When betting on sports, which one to choose -110 or +110? on: December 28, 2023, 04:44:53 PM
My favorite betting odds are between 1.90 to 2.05 although sometimes I extended it to 1.85. So yeah, I prefer the -110 which is like the 50/50 without the house edge. But I don't see much difference between -110 or 1.91 and +110 or 2.10.
50/50 on the game, maybe, but in terms of payout, it's never 50/50 when you bet on -110, because you need to risk $110 usd to win $100. That's a big disadvantage on our part, perhaps we can call that 10% or additional $10 of our bet to win $100 as a house edge and if we aren't exceptional, we would easily lose games.

I don't know the reason behind while most of the videos I see online are using -110 per bet most of the time, probably this gives a higher percentage of winning, but 53% win rate for long term is not gonna be easy in actual practice.
