641  Economy / Gambling / Re: What if bitcointalk creates a casino review and ratings board for members. on: March 09, 2023, 03:25:00 PM
I think the existing casino reviews are good enough, as long as you are strong enough to read from the start they make reviews, representatives and experienced forum members are also cooperative in answering so I don't think there is a need to give a separate review in this forum because this bitcoin  not gambling forum is just entertainment just to fill spare time and boredom with unfavorable market conditions

I also believe that the reviews of feedback about casinos on this forum are already enough for us to have an idea about their credibility and legitimacy. Creating a new thread will only make confusion. Members also know where to check reliable reviews on this forum so I think that would be enough. It is also a good thing that casino developers and representatives are having continuous interactions on their threads.

Hi!

I have heard about Bitcoin back in 2017 but never got to learn regarding about it. I always thought that crypto was a fluke and that it would definitely not be a type of transaction until pandemic happens. So, as the title would suggest, is it too late to start investing in crypto? And if not, what would be the essentials to learn on working on it?

Thanks in advance!

I also invested after the bullish season last 2017 and got a good profit last bull run so I could conclude that it's never too late for everyone to invest in crypto. You only have to learn how to deal with the risks and know how the market works. Cryptocurrency investment is open for everyone but you also need to do lots of research first so you'll know what to invest in and when is the right time to buy. It's not too late because if you know how to deal with the volatility of the market, you will take it as an opportunity to earn.

To be honest, I don't just trade bitcoins, and my answer is yes, I help finance my daily life, buy vehicles, pay bills, almost everything is done from that.
and in the last 3 years I have only depended on online income.
but now market is very crucial and i dont have some capital to trade, so i will start again from the first.
the same as you, but at that time it still gave very good results not only from trading but from bounties. now the situation is very different, from trading it is very difficult to earn, it is also made difficult from bounties which currently rarely produce by surprise, so that later it can be used as trading capital.
I was the same as you when going through the Covid pandemic, a lot of funds were drained and now is the time to try to collect again, but it doesn't seem easy and it will take a long time waiting for very significant changes.
Bitcoin and other crypto opportunities have saved me during the pandemic as well especially when I have lost my permanent job during the lockdowns and I think it helped the economy a bit because of our consumption taxes. When it comes to trading, it might fail sometimes but it shouldn't end there because once we notice our mistakes, we will be able to do it the right way in our next trading sessions. Bitcoin has been offering more opportunities and if we acquire skills, we can grab most of them which will surely have a good impscy on the economy in the long run.

I'm sorry for what happened. It seems like you weren't lucky that day. I've heard stories like this before and it often happens to those who are not too focused when playing. Mistakes like this will be avoidable if we are skeptical since our money is involved. It must be a lesson for you to stay alert all the time and always check if everything is well before placing a bet. I know that you feel very disappointed right now but just learn from your mistake. I'm sure that you will get over it.
645  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling using chip in money? on: March 08, 2023, 09:40:26 PM


I’m still not experiencing it but sounds fun at the same time to share experience of winning and losing with your friend. Do you guys do it?


If you're the one playing, then you should not be the one suggesting this, they might think that you're just using their money to sustain your gambling, it should be a mutual agreement of all parties involved and there should be a gentlemen's agreement with whatever the result is, you will all respect it.
I'm not comfortable with this setup and I haven't tried it before, I don't want to gamble using other people's money
because I cannot guarantee a win and it might cause a rift between us, even if some of your friends make not aware of it.


They say gambling can ruin relationships and friendships. I've heard stories like this and they end up blaming and fooling each other in the end. When money is involved, we can't expect that friendship will be firm especially when it comes to gambling. Yes, it is a good thing that you are winning for now but you can face the consequences later on. If you want to gamble, you should use your own money and not rely on your friend's pocket.
646  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling advertisements: A big trigger to gambling addiction. on: March 08, 2023, 04:17:18 PM
Gambling ads and advertisements will always exist and even social media personalities are already advertising gambling sites but it shouldn't be a reason enough for a person who suffers from gambling addiction to get hooked into it. Casino is a business and they will do everything to promote their site so avoiding and ignoring them is the best thing that we can do. If a gambling-addicted person is highly affected by gambling advertisements, he better seeks professional help.
647  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will BNB Coin Hit $300 Mark in 2023? on: March 07, 2023, 03:30:55 PM
The potential of BNB is undeniably promising and in fact, it has reached that value the last ATH so I can confidently say that it can reach higher than that if not this year maybe in the next bull season. BNB has a strong possibility to exceed its previous history especially now that more investors put their trust in it so as much as possible, we should make the right move which is to accumulate more of it while the price is still low.
648  Economy / Gambling / Re: they are scamming us? on: March 07, 2023, 02:27:30 PM
Just gamble on trusted and reputable casino to minimize the risk of scam.

When you want to gamble make sure you're only gamble for fun and not only looking to make money, otherwise you wouldn't feel happy during gambling. You need to know if you gambling for long term, you will always lose due to house edge, so you shouldn't expect you will make money if you keep gambling until you hit the jackpot.

Casino is a business after all so they will do everything to make their business run continuously. We can expect issues like this in non reputable casinos that's why it is important to research the legitimacy and provably fairness of casinos before playing.
We can't conclude if casinos are cheating through their systems because they have complete access to them but I believe that as long as you are playing with a trusted site, you won't face cheating issues.
649  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can Gambling earn someone a living on: March 07, 2023, 01:51:23 PM
I consider making for a living is where you can always make money in long term, gambling can make money but it's just only for few times and it's impossible if you're only depends on gambling as your main source. Gambling isn't a long term money making because luck isn't always in your side and there's a chance you will get scammed from fraudulent casino. Not to mention your account might get frozen, restricted, or betting limit.

Gambling can't provide a passive income of can't be a stable source of living because of its risks. It can't provide a guarantee of winning all the time so we can't expect to gain a regular income from it. Most people earn through luck and by skills and strategies but it can't be a continuous source of funds. We can do it as a habbit or for entertainment purposes but it is still better to have a stable income aside from it.
650  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Would You Build your Own Casino(online/offline) If You Know You Can? on: March 07, 2023, 11:48:01 AM
If I have the capability to put up my own casino as a business, then I will definitely do it but I will make sure to consider all the stuff needed to establish it better. It needs good preparation so from the financial aspect to knowledge-wise, I will make sure to polish everything. Having capital isn't enough to build a good casino because it takes time and dedication to run it successfully. You will also be needing trusted people to help you establish it so you have to be prepared financially and emotionally.
651  Economy / Economics / Re: How to spend money determines whether you can avoid unnecessary problems on: March 04, 2023, 05:28:21 PM
Spending money is the easiest thing to do but doing it efficiently and wisely is very challenging. There are lots of temptations nowadays from our working environment to everything that we see online. Sales are everywhere and they are hard to resist. I think we need complete discipline to do wise budgeting and we can accomplish it by having a smart lifestyle. Allocating funds for our bills, expenses, and savings should be put on too first before buying our ones. We have to control our urge to buy our wants and avoid anything that will tempt us to spend too much.
652  Economy / Economics / Re: Money is for the important things on: March 04, 2023, 04:57:34 PM
Have you checked your attitude towards money lately? What is "your dream"?  bigger home, a bigger car, private schools, branded drink, gold?...

Money for for things that are important in life: you family, your people, health, well being, ... Do not be afraid to spend the money on your people when they really need it, but be wary of spending it on stupid things and if you think your car and your clothes are important, you may want to start thinking if you have any significant goal in life and where does it get you in the next 10 years.

As much as possible, I use my money for a long-term benefits such as investments and buying good assets. I always look forward to a comfortable living in the future so I save as long as I could. However, I still manage to provide for the needs of my family while rewarding myself sometimes so I will feel more motivated to work hard and earn. I think what is important is we'll know how to manage our finances wisely and always include our future when we are budgeting.
653  Economy / Gambling / Re: Best crypto casino for Netherlands? on: March 04, 2023, 04:31:34 PM
Weird that a country which doesn't ban drugs actually bans gambling. Coming to your query, I checked some sites that I regularly play at and observed that none of them allow gamblers from Netherlands.

Do not submit fake KYC and always clarify all your doubts with customer support in any site before deciding to invest op.
Netherlands government is actually making the gambling laws more tight that they have to prevent gamblers from playing in casinos who have no Dutch license. So imagine how hard for those gamblers who are living in Netherlands and unluckily, most of the trusted casinos are also not accepting gamblers from Netherlands. However, faking KYC is not the solution, you are just making the scenario worst especially if you eventually win big amount. Always ask the customer support first and be honest that you are from Netherlands before you decide to take the risk with gambling.

Yes, of course, these strictures force people to look for an alternative in an online casino without the need for KYC, but this is also used by scammers who create online gambling decentralized platforms that do not have a license, and if you consider that OP is interested in amounts over $ 10k, then this is associated with a huge risk of losing funds.
Well, it is just a matter of choosing the right one; reputaion and credibility of a gambling platform for sure are top things to consider when finding a platform. Not all casinos without KYC would have a tendency to steal your funds. Actually I do take those who does, as more concerned with their olayers. KYC would limit the chances of easily withdrawing funds from your account so atleast that would give a harder time for those who are hacking accounts. Another thing is limiting underaged gamblers because they are more prone to addiction not to mention their sustainability of funds. So I am not totally against it, unless the activity itself is prohibited in your country.
Top casinos these days usually ask for KYC. They might not be require it in the beginning but will surprise you upon withdrawal so it will be better to search everything well so you will have an idea right from the beginning. Yes, there are still trusted casinos that will not ask for KYC but gamblers from the Netherlands should know if they could access the site in their country. There are lots of restrictions in the said country but gamblers shouldn't fake their KYC because it could only cause trouble in the future.
654  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: gambler has 100% trust in each stake on: March 04, 2023, 03:54:12 PM
No, I wouldn't give a hundred percent to a stake. No matter how we analyze the capability of the players and do lots of background checking, anything could still happen during the game. The result is always unpredictable because the game flow will always depend on the game condition. Even professional analysts can fail when it comes to predicting the result so it will be a risk to entrust most of your funds to certain sports.
655  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you have any financial regrets ? on: March 03, 2023, 09:51:08 PM
I have a lot of financial regrets and just like yours, most of it are investment opportunities that I saw before and was doubting if I should buy or not. In the end, I didn't because if I did, I may have just been living in luxury today.
We don't really have to go that far in picking one of the biggest financial regrets in our life. BITCOIN! A very long follower and yet I was always late when I try to buy. It's not really like a regret but more of getting the courage. I should've taken a loan from the bank and bought it with Bitcoin while its price is at 3 digits. But because there's so much FUD that circling around, I was afraid to take the leap.
You are not alone in your bitcoin regrets. A lot of us have missed the opportunity of buying it while it was still very cheap. We could have been millionaires today. But lets not dwell on it anymore as it won't be helpful for us to grow in the future. Like OP, don't be bothered anymore on what you have not bought in the past. Learn and invest in bitcoin, Im sure this will lead you to a lot of bigger opportunities once you succeeded from it.
Lots had missed out that train and there are even early adopters who had just sold out their coins on a cheap price which they didnt really anticipate nor expect that this would really become that huge.

Ending up for them to have those nightmares and thinking that if they havent just sold those coins and hold for long time then they might already have been changed up their lives.

This is why it is really that hard to forget on things that we do have missed, somehow it's not really that something late because we could still
make things possible but it's not really that something simple.

I also missed and regret not buying Bitcoin when it was first introduced to me by a friend. I regret that I doubted it since I had trust issues when it comes to online investments before. There were lots of what-ifs but regretting it for a long time won't help. That already served a lot of us a lesson but it's not too late for us to invest and buy Bitcoin these days. It's still an open opportunity for everyone to invest though we aren't as lucky as early investors.
656  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Favourite MEME COINS? on: March 03, 2023, 09:28:43 PM
Same here. If there is a meme coin that I like the most, that would only be Doge, nothing more nothing less. It gives us an entertainment and it was also useful on certain occasions Eg for playing a gambling or for buying something because its fees are only cheap and it's also a bit fast than in Bitcoin and other heavier cryptos.

In the crypto world, there are always people who will try to make money so expect that a famous coin will be cloned out easily but some are lucky to be successful. One of it is shiba inu. It was a meme coin who also gain the attention of musk, vitalik and other famous personalities which help him to get established later on.
Although Elon Musk was the project's CEO, it appears that he abandoned it when it became clear that there was no liquidity for the project. Dogecoin is one of the bullish meme coins in the market. Nonetheless, restaurants and shops tend to accept it as payment more frequently. There are a ton of meme coins available, but due to the market's extreme volatility, some of them tend to have reliable endings, like Shiba Inu, which cancels many zeros upwards, and I stand to gain from this bull market. I didn't miss out on the GMT bull run on kucoin since I keep up with the market and am aware of when it happens because most of my friends made enormous money.

We all know that Elon leaves when he's not benefiting from it. I'm sure that he'll make noise again when the market recovers. It's just so easy for him to release statements to hype Doge coin. It's just a good thing that the coin is still gaining thr trust of many users despite the current market condition. I just hope that it will remain profitable and investors would know how to take advantage of this coin.
657  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: In the best interest of investors, Bounties shouldn't be paid in Tokens on: March 03, 2023, 09:08:58 PM
Simply put, just like everyone else said, they can't afford to. I mean it is not even about not trusting if their project will be big or not, even if they think that their project will be huge, they just can't afford to pay people in stablecoins for example. Most projects in the world start with very limited funds and that is why they end up paying people in tokens, which allows them to simply spend zero amounts on any of the marketing.

You could just create a token, promise people some free tokens that didn't cost you anything, and they will do your marketing, if you succeed then all of you win together, if you lose, none of you lost anything but time.

It is frustrating for bounty participants to get paid with unvalued coins that they couldn't even trade in the future. After doing all the tasks that they have asked to do, being paid with coins without any value but just volume is frustrating. It is like we are gambling our time and effort in exchange for a coin without an assured value. This has been happening for a long time already but we have no choice but to deal with it. That could be their strategy to save but I admire those projects that are exerting an effort to pay their participants with stable coins.
658  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: My $300 bet won $417,000 on: March 03, 2023, 08:53:49 PM
I'm not going to argue with that one because as always, whether we like it or not, people will always find a way to criticize you even if your motive was not to brag as I believe that OP's only intention was just to share what he had experienced recently. We couldn't blame him for that as the OP was just happy.
That's so true.

Even if somebody really wants to share it without bad intention, there will be critics that would tell about what they think of it as a critic and not to encourage others.

That's okay and sometimes I'm also like that person even if there's the good intention of just sharing of what has happened even if it's just a good experience.

This is normal even in our society or our community. There are people who will criticize you just because you are reaching good milestones. Winning stories like this should inspire us who are aiming to win the same amount of profit as well but if we see it as a wrong thing, then the problem is in us. Op deserves to be congratulated rather than to be criticized because not everyone could have the courage to share their winning stories.
659  Economy / Gambling / Re: shame on the stake on: March 03, 2023, 08:36:00 PM
What op had complained a iyt may not be a bug but a network differences that may have causeed the delay. I know op is very angry that is why he brought his anger here to write about his horrible experience with stake. Since he had been using the casino for long now and had not have issue until now then he need to understand that we as a gambler do have the same mindset like casibos too which is to make more money. If anythimg goes wrong which as as a result of stake not carrying out there duty then I would blame stake but I'm this situation then no one is to be blamed.

I certainly agree. Understandably, Op is so upset with what happened especially if he has lost his funds using his trusted casino. Losing our hard earned money is definitely disappointing. This usually happens unexpectedly but he has no choice but just to move forward and find other reputable casinos to comfortably play with or just stay on Stake and accept everything. I think Op only needs a concrete explanation from Stake so he will be able to understand things clearly.

Nasa balita nga ito kagabi na halos 50 pinoy oa nga daw ang nanghihingi ng tulong para marescure sa Myanmar. Sila raw ay tinotorture kapag hindi nareach ang kota which is also traumatic maging sa mga naiwang pamilya nila dito sa Pinas lalo na kung napangakuan naman talaga sila ng maayos na trabaho. Palala na ng palala ang human traficking sa bansa pero hindi natin masisisi ang mga kababayan natin na nahuhulog dito dahil karamihan sa kanila ay nagaasam lang din naman ng maginhawang buhay.
