6101  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Ohio offering lottery prize worth one million for those that get the COVID shot on: June 21, 2021, 06:34:13 AM
The prize is for some people who really luckiest to win the lottery and yes, their lives will change if they can win on that. But for the other people, hopefully, they can still get something from the government. Maybe that will not in the form of money, but something worth for their life. The lottery can still attract more people to volunteer themselves to get vaccinated.

4th set of winners have been annouced. Suzanne Ward received $1 million, while Sean Horning received the college sponsorship. The fourth week saw a total of 3,428,514 entries for the $1 million prize, and another 150,187 entries from those who are aged 12-17 (they are not allowed to participate in lotteries having cash prizes) for the college sponsorship draw. This was a great move from the governor (Mike DeWine). The lottery not only boosted the vaccination numbers in Ohio, but also created a hype all over the United States and many of the other states announced similar measures, encouraged by the success in Ohio.

If that lottery still continues, I think sooner or later, people will want to be vaccinated, which means more people will have a way to prevent the virus. The winner can get the money for their life and survive in this pandemic which really helps them solve their finances. The vaccine will help more people. If that succeeds, the other states might follow what they did and that program really helps their people to survive.
6102  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: what is the ideal price difference that people use to arbitrage bitcoin? on: June 20, 2021, 03:15:29 PM
I guess there is no ideal price to use arbitrage because that will depend on yourself. We have different ideal prices, but maybe you can try with 1%-5% different price to arbitrage. You need to know the estimation for the coins that arrives in the destination exchange because sometimes, the different prices will only happen in a short time, sometimes less than 5 minutes. And do not forget about the fee because you need to make a profit after you pay the trading fee. If you think you got BEP, you still lose because you need to think about the fee in the trading that you should pay.

I do not try arbitrage trading because that is too dangerous for me and I do not want to risk my money. I can not move fast as other people and many times, and I miss the time to send and sell at the right time.
6103  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What are your trading strategies ? on: June 20, 2021, 02:15:13 PM
It seems most amateur traders are swing traders buying spot- to 10x to catch an about 10% move but the most successful traders are probably doing something else.

Arbitrage ? https://www.sfox.com/blog/bitcoin-arbitrage-is-possible-but-not-the-way-youre-doing-it/

Scalping on 1 to 15m candles ?

Market maker / bot strategies ?

How do you trade ? Does someone has reliable info on the strategies of the most successful solo traders ?
I use 1 hour time frame to trade and if in one hour, there is no good movement from the coin in one hour, I will hold it and try it again in the next hours. But sometimes, if the movements are good, I can trade for 5 times in an hour and make a nice profit. I do not use bot trading to trade because I want to learn to analyze the market and I know that the market always moves every day so I need to modify the strategy based on the market movements.

I do not use bitcoin or altcoin arbitrage because I have a bad experience, so I am staying away by using that method. I prefer to stick to one exchange and search for the potential coin to trade.
6104  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: How can I get trade signal to make more profit? on: June 20, 2021, 01:13:39 PM
I am new in trading. I am using Binance & KuCoin for trading. But many of time it seems that,  I sold a token then its price was dumping. I am little bit tensed for this. I think i have to more study about every token before buying. But, I am hearing about trading signal. How and where i get profitable & legit trading signal?
Your advice help me a lot.
If you are new to trading, I suggest you use only one exchange to trade because that will confuse trading the coin. It helps you focus on trade and analyze the coin that can give you the profit.

You do not have to use the trading signal from the others. You need to learn about the analysis of the coin moves because if you use the trading signal to trade, that will not guarantee a profit.

In an attempt to increase the number of people getting vaccinated all kind of incentives are being given in the US, one of the most interesting is that those that get at least the first dose of the vaccine at Ohio will have a chance to win one million dollars, apparently there will five be prizes so a total five million dollars will be given for those that are willing to take the vaccine, and for those that are below the age of 18 there will be full scholarships being offered as well.

What do you think of this? Do you agree with what the governor of Ohio is doing or are you against it?

Source: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-57096039
i see this is a good campaign....i think ohio was the first to do this and it's really a tantalizing attraction.  Ohio people are really very lucky with this policy, it really can change their lives 180% just by joining the vaccination program. 
The prize is for some people who really luckiest to win the lottery and yes, their lives will change if they can win on that.

I really don't have a favorite gambling game but what I do most time is to play games especially those one I'm good at. I believe in achievement rather than playing so many games without having a good skill in it. I like taking steps one after the other just like playing dices couple of times.
No matter what is your favourite gambling game, you need to avoid the achievement that you say because that can make you play more often than the other gambler. The achievement needs time, which will not make us stop from playing gambling and if you still do that in the long term, I am afraid that you can become addicted to gambling. Once you become addicted, there are not easy to stop gambling because your mind will only want to play gambling.
It is a lot of fun playing gambling especially when we are winning most of the time. I heard that my sister is playing online gambling here in our country and she already won some, but she is not using cryptocurrency, but you can still use your crypto and convert it into fiat. She is playing "online sabong" and I think it is really fun 😀 when I saw it and try some. I lose, but it is just a small amount that I can afford to lose, maybe next time I can also win like her, I think it is just not my lucky day that day.
I am sure that will make exciting moment and happiness if we can win most of the time. But I doubt that we can get that as we must have the luck to help us to win. Your sister is really lucky to win some rounds. Yea, I heard about "online sabong," and I heard about a traditional gambling game that is very famous in some Asian countries. You can still play that game if you want to test your luck but always remember that luck still the important thing you will need to have.
6107  Other / Off-topic / Re: Slapping Tournament on: June 20, 2021, 10:31:33 AM
Well this kind of competition will never be called sports in my opinion, and it is pretty much dangerous for people with a petite physique but even though this kind of thing will not make it an official kind of sports it sure good enough to make a bet on it, I really think we should bet to the person with the huge muscle that you can be sure can make a huge impact and damage on his opponent,

I have seen many videos on the internet and most likely people that are competing in this kind of competition all have a body mass that could absorb the impact of the slap, if not huge muscles that could deliver great damage.
Maybe there are requirements for people who want to join in that competition or tournament because it can get them in danger. Betting on the person with the huge muscle will not always win us because I think a little guy does not seem too strong but can beat his opponent. Maybe that will be only popular in that country and their people called that game a sport.

His arms are fake. I don't know if you have an idea about how that works, but this guy is known for injecting oil, like pure oil, straight into his muscle. The body isn't able to cope with it and it stays where it is as a piece foreign to the body. It leads to inflammation but the blood isn't able to heal and remove it. It's close to suicide. A lot of people die from it and this guy exaggerated so much, I don't expect him to live very long. It's highly poisonous.
Still I wonder who gets the first slap as the first slap can end the battle right there.
Maybe that is fake, but I do not know for sure. Even if that is fake, it looks real. I only think about what will happen to that guy if he injects himself with something that looks not dangerous to him because I am sure that it will impact him in the future. That will really hurt to get the first slap because our head will be shaking strong.
6108  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How does on-line compete with the VIP experience on: June 20, 2021, 09:21:40 AM
If someone drinks alcohol many times, he can become drunk, even for someone who usually drinks. If he is at the casino and drinks that alcohol while playing, he will get drunk and lose control. And once he becomes like that, it may be not taking too long to become addicted to two things, alcohol and gambling.

Yes, the country that allows gambling will have a casino that opens 24/7 because they know that a gambler will come anytime. If that gambler is one of their VIP members, that will be good for the casino because the VIP will not just come for playing gambling and drinks because sometimes, they can discuss their business with their partner in VIP rooms.
Wouldn't casinos that offer alcohol have a private room for such cases? I've had my fair share of experiencing how drunk people can be a pain after all, so I kind of expected establishments and such that offer alcohol to actually have something that could let them easily handle such cases. And on the idea of alcohol, the drunker you are, the more likely you are to keep gambling. Kind of an easy connection to make ngl, probably why casinos would offer alcohol for their VIPs, since they are the ones that would spend the most in most cases.
I guess yes because they will separate for a regular gambler and VIP members to not disturb each other. Once I am visiting the karaoke place, which has many rooms for regular members and VIP members, I already tried both rooms. Although that is not a gambling place, they have both rooms for regular members and VIP members. The difference is so big which VIP members have more stuff inside the rooms, and I think if their VIP members, they will not get drunks like most people who drunks. So when the VIP members enjoy their drinks and meal, they will play longer than the regular members. Besides that, the VIP members will have more money to spend on gambling games, so the casino will get a lot of money from them if they lose.

Yes online gambling is risky especialy when you start losing money and keep trying to get your lost money and in the end you find your self losing more i lost a considerate amount of money this way i think the best thing to do when you're in a losing streak is to stop gambling for a while to get a fresh start after some time because the pressure make you unstable and cloud your jugment.
Whether it is online or offline gambling, it will have a risk and many people already prove that by losing their money in gambling. If you are still trying to chase your losing money without thinking to stop for a while, you will only lose more money. Once you realize how much money you already lose, you will regret it because that will be big money you already spent on gambling. Stopping gambling as soon as possible is more important than using more money to gamble.
6111  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Auto Deduct System on: June 20, 2021, 06:15:31 AM
That can be a solution for gamblers who do not want to click the roll button and only wait and see the number rolls. If a gambler does not control the money or use limit money, that will use all of the money to gamble, and it could end with an emptied wallet. But there could be a time for a gambler to win the game as we can hope the luck will give us the win. Maybe if there is a stop button to stop the game, it will be good for a gambler to spend some money or time and quit gambling. Or if there is a button to be like a stop-loss button, that will be good, so before we play, we can set the amount of money that we will use, no matter the result if the money reached the limit, stop by itself.

Although luck is needed in gambling but knowledge is the most thing that is needed to be a successful gambler and it funny how unsophisticated people can be sometime when it comes to the reality of gambling.
Have I ever prayed before placing a bet (gambling)? No, cause the luck needed in gambling don't just come, gambler personal knowledge pave way for it to come and the last time I check almost all religion is against gambling.
Knowledge will also be important for the gamblers because that will help them to play better and with luck, they will win the games.
Knowledge is the most fundamental characteristic needed in gambling not that it will also be important cause if a gsmbler don't have knowledge about games rules she have lost the game before the start of.
Yes, I agree with you. Everything will not be complicated if we have knowledge. But some people who gamble seem not to learn more about the games they like because they think that gambling will be only for fun.

Sometimes, people can not see the reality of gambling instead of still forcing them to play longer, making them lose more money.
Apparently, this are the people that lack the required knowledge and this is the reason why knowledge should the top priority of every gambler.
If that game is too complicated to play, they must learn to know how to play better and who knows that they can win the game by learning. But if that game does not require knowing more details about the game, they can skip it and enjoy their time playing the game.

But we can pray before gambling if we feel that can give us more confidence. But if it's not, we can directly play gambling and hope that our luck will come to us.
If you don’t understand the game always read the instruction and that’s a great knowledge came from since every games have their own instructions and you’ll master it once you keep playing that specific game. When it comes to prayer, we have so many belief and there’s nothing wrong with this one, just pray and play but never expect something.
If they only pray and play, that will not be a problem because that will depend on the game they played. If they do not have much knowledge about that game, they do not have to complain if they can not win.

To be honest, I don't like this tournament because it's not a sport and it's more suited as a slap contest. I don't see any strict rules in this tournament because someone who hits his opponent's ear will most likely win while his opponent is KO. I just watched the video after finding this thread, I'm sure it would never be called a sport. I would never have dared do it for $400-$500 as a prize for the winner of that contest as mentioned in one of the sources I read.
But for some people, $400-$500 is big money and they will try to join in that tournament, especially in that country which I think slowly become popular. They will try to prepare themselves and maybe they will exercise themselves hard to win that tournament. I am trying to search on Youtube, and I see that the viewers are not too many or maybe I need to dig more to find if that tournament has huge viewers or the tournament trying to reach more viewers.

Better keep this foto in your memories because that dude with his arms pumped up with oil won't make it for much longer if he doesn't get this shit removed anytime soon. I seriously ask myself how dumb someone must be to inject oil into your body...

Back on topic: does anyone know what the rules are who gets to start a 1 vs 1 fight? I mean if you are up against a real beast and he gets to start, chances are high you won't even make it to your turn to slap the other guy in the face. 

It is the basic rules for the tournament:

Quote
The rules of the competition are simple – two men stand face to face and take turns slapping one another. With bare hands and no head protection – the competitors take turns to slap one another – hard – around the face. Each man has five attempts at slapping his opponent down.

Source: https://www.ktvq.com/news/trending/russian-strongmen-compete-to-win-slap-championships

You can try to search on Google to find out the other rules of the competition.

I can not imagine what will happen if that hands landing in my face  Grin

That will hurt and maybe that will swell and I can not see anything. His arm is big, and I think he already exercises hardly to win in that tournament.

They are open 24/7 compared to some physical casinos plus online gambling sites have more promos and freebies compared to casinos that only offers free alcohol if you are a VIP, which is bad for the health and you also get the VIP treatment that you deserve in online gambling.
I prefer to get more promos and freebies than free alcohol because that can make us drunk and we will not know if we already spend too big money.
alcohol isnt bad but experts says that a few alcohol a day is good for the health and depending on the your level of vip a casino can offer a variety of alcohol .
 we dont say that its only alcohol but some alcohol are expensive and @kitty , there are offline casinos too that are open 24/7 because there are gamblers in offline casinos that are also addicted and cant get enough of gambling .
If someone drinks alcohol many times, he can become drunk, even for someone who usually drinks. If he is at the casino and drinks that alcohol while playing, he will get drunk and lose control.

We are going to show BTC death cross in few days, so it's a bearish signal for BTC market. If you show the previous BTC detath cross then you have got a beautiful idea. I am expecting BTC starting down trend,
   What do you think about it? What is your view point?
A few days ago, the downtrend already happened, especially when the price started going down below $40k towards $35k and now bitcoin price trying to defend the price not to go down for more. But if the support does not feel strong enough to hold the price to stay at the current price or rise again, the price will go down for more. Hopefully, that will not go down below the current price. So yes, it is a bearish signal for the bitcoin market, but we do not need to worry and it is better to prepare for the worst scenario and ready to buy more bitcoin.

I prefer to get more promos and freebies than free alcohol because that can make us drunk and we will not know if we already spend too big money. With a VIP badge, maybe we can get more bonuses, but that will depend on our habit of playing gambling because some people do not care about VIP or regular as they only want to play gambling. But maybe the physical casino will also give more to their VIP members as we do not know what they will do with their VIP members. But both online and offline casinos will make sure they can satisfy their members.
Offline or online then both gambling businesses would really be mindful on how they would be giving out importance into their big spenders or simply with VIP's and there might be some huge difference about implementation of perks like offering drinks and other bonuses and incentives on where we cant experience when we do play online but there are also perks on vip in online casinos which are far more great than on a physical one so its a matter of preference because not all would really be having on the same preference on where they should play.Thing here is that they do consider out on giving
importance.
Yes, each casino, offline and online, will serve their VIP members as a king and will never make them disappointed. They can give so many things that will make their VIP members come many times in the next few days because the casino knows that the VIP members will spend so much money. The offline can give drinks, food, and other things such as bonuses to their members. The online casino will provide a special room to their VIP members and that will not give to their regular members or gamblers who are not qualified with their membership. Maybe many more that the casino will provide to their VIP members, which we do not know because I am not one of them.

Just don't play gambling if you can't afford the whole process, simple as that. Both bitcoin and gambling sites doesn't need anyone as bitter as you for something so easy to be fixed without saying any foul words. Just do physical gambling games to avoid transaction fee as an alternative, that might help you to fix your problem.
That is the best way for him not to playing gambling. Suppose we can not handle ourselves in gambling, then why we should play gambling because that will make us in a hard situation. Even if he playing on physical gambling games, there will be other problems that he can get. He needs to prepare himself before playing gambling and accept anything that can happen while playing gambling. Otherwise, the same situation will happen again.

6120  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Crypto-Casinos and KYC on: June 19, 2021, 01:06:00 PM
Easy for them to do that but there's always a risk on their side, that's an identity thief or they might not be able to go after the gambling site if they will file a case once the site is scamming its clients because they are not using their real identity. I don't know if there are still gambling sites that will offer anonymous gambling in the future, because wherever they are, as long as they are regulated, the government would always require them to implement a KYC as that is the standard for every government.
That is another problem that will a gambler face in the future if they decide to use a fake identity in the gambling casino. They hope that they can play gambling without a problem and if they can found a casino that does not require KYC, maybe they will stay at that casino without moving into the other casino. I guess there will still be a casino that does not require the member to fills KYC. I will not have a problem using the casino, which requires KYC but that will be better if we give our identity if we want to withdraw big money more than 1 bitcoin.
It would really be surely a big problem whenever you do hit up some big wins and accompanied with some issues where you do need to make out some verification and if you do input false information earlier then that would surely be a big mess.

KYC is mainly hated on crypto but due to regulation these platforms wont really be having any choice but to impose those if they had been asked to do so.

So as a user then we wont have any choice too but actually there are still lots of options for us to take.
But that will not be advisable if you use fake information of your identity because that can make your account get banned by them and lose your win money. If the casino allows them not to verify their account, then maybe they can withdraw small money without trying to break the limit for verifying their account. By doing that, they can still get their winning and can withdraw the other amount in the next days until they got all of their winning money.

I am sure if the casino is bond with the government, they will force their members to do KYC to report it to the government. If that happens, there is no other way to search for the different casino or follow them or stop playing gambling.
