Well, technically, That board is for Bitcoin wallets specifically.  And it looks like the original poster is more into altcoins.  But I agree with you - I don't think we really need a whole separate board just for that altcoin wallets.  Its not exactly important when we're talking about Bitcoin ecosystem.

We all want to know the perfect moment to cash out for maximum profits.  The frustrating truth is there's no magic number or crystal ball to predict what the markets gonna do next.  At the end of the day, it comes down to you and what you're comfortable with and   

first, take a good look at your goals.  How much of a profit are you really hoping for here? Have you decided on a target number that you'd be happy with - say doubling your investment? If so, then maybe take those gains and run when you hit your goal.  But if you have bigger dreams then strap in for a longer ride and see how high this thing can go.  Patience pays off sometimes in crypto world. 

That said, it never hurts to lock in some profits while still leaving yourself room for more potential growth.  Many savvy investors use a strategy like this to balance taking profits and chasing further gains.  Do what feels right for your situation.  Just be honest with yourself about what you want and dont get too greedy waiting for the perfect exit.  The reality is there's no perfect time - you've just gotta pull the trigger when the time feels right for you.

OP, Can you post the transaction here? If the coins are on that BSC network, they aren't real Bitcoins and  you'll probably need to use some kinda exchange or bridge to change them back to real Bitcoin. 

Those smart chain coins are different even though they call it Bitcoin too.  Its confusing, I know! But if you dig into the transaction details we can hopefully figure out what's going on and how to get your real Bitcoins.

It depends on your attitude towards gambling and some people feel differently about gambling.  Yes, if you lose a bunch, it can stress you out big time.  But some people can have fun with it and not go overboard.  They see it as entertainment or a way to chill on a break from work.  Really it's about finding the right balance so it doesn't mess up your work.  What's good for someone might not work for the next person and  you gotta think about your own deal and do whats right for you.

Scammers try to pull this trick all the time.  They know folks get drawn in by new, unverified websites making big promises.  Crypto's the hot spot now because of everyone trying to strike it rich quick.  But yeah, you gotta watch out for deals that seem too good to be true and  that's usually a big red flag something shady is going on.

The whole centralized vs decentralized exchange thing is less about one being better than the other, and more about figuring out what works for you based on your priorities and how much risk you're cool with taking on.  You talked about some of the nice parts of centralized exchanges, but left out one of the biggest downsides in my opinion.  Since centralized exchanges hold all the coins, you gotta trust them fully with your crypto which opens up a can of worms when it comes to who's really got control.  In crypto world, it's all not your keys, not your coins, so going through a centralized exchange means youre handing over the keys and just hoping they keep your funds secure.  On the other hand with decentralized exchanges you keep the keys and control over your assets.  That's a big factor to think about when deciding between centralized vs decentralized and  at the end of the day, it depends on your personal risk tolerance and what you value most.

CEXs are secure and reliable until they're not. You gave a good example with the FTX exchange, which rapidly became one of the largest crypto exchanges in the US. And we all know what happened in the end. As for the rumors, are you suggesting that there are no current rumors about Binance?

I've never heard of this before, Can you provide more information? Where did you hear of these "flash Bitcoins" that disappear in 90 days?

There are various altcoins or tokens that can be loosely referred to as fake Bitcoins. For example, BSV is often considered a fake Bitcoin. However, it's an altcoin with its separate network and market price, unrelated to the actual Bitcoin network. Also, there are so-called "Wrapped Bitcoins," like WBTC, which also aren't real Bitcoins but tokens on other networks that represent the value of real Bitcoins. In most cases, you can exchange them for real Bitcoins. Still, I've never heard of fake Bitcoins that vanish in 90 days.

I gotta say gambling at work is probably not the best idea.  Your boss is paying you to work, not bet on games online and  that being said, everyone deserves a little break now and then.  If you've been grinding I don't see an issue with quickly checking a score or placing a small wager when youve got some downtime. 

The key is making sure it doesn't get in the way of your actual job.  You can't be so focused on sports betting that you're slacking on your tasks.  I think it depends a lot on your line of work too.  Some jobs are more flexible than others when it comes to stuff like this.  You definitely gotta make sure its allowed where you work first, don't wanna get in trouble with the boss over some bets! 

I get why people keep betting even when they lose.  Each new bet feels exciting and hopeful, like maybe this one will be the big win.  It's kinda like chasing a high.  For other folks, it's just entertainment, even if they're not winning and  theres also the social part - some enjoy betting with friends and chatting about it.

I totally agree! Keeping records in gambling is a personal choice. I'm more of a go-with-the-flow person myself.  For me it's all about having a good time, not worrying about taking notes or whatever and  if you get curious and want to try tracking stuff just as an experiment, cool.  But at the end of the day, gambling is our hobby and I just wanna enjoy it without making it into a chore with a bunch of record-keeping.

This is an interesting problem you've brought up here. I think how much someone values privacy when gambling really depends on the person.  

If I somehow won a good chunk of change, like ,000 or more, and the casino demanded a thorough KYC and to give them all my information, I probably wouldn't think twice about it and would hand over what they asked for right away.  But if it was some casino I wasn't familiar with and wasnt sure I could trust I'd be more hesitant and probably wouldn't risk betting really big money there in the first place.  

You said the total bet was under $100 which isn't a lot but still wouldnt make me feel comfortable either.  I'd probably start by placing bets of just a couple bucks to test out the site first and  for me, step one would be doing some research on the casino's reputation and if I could find any reviews or feedback from other gamblers.  If everything looked legit and trustworthy, then I might feel better about going through their verification process.

You make a good point - dealing with bots is definitely an ongoing struggle for online platforms like casinos.  Those sneaky bots seem to always be getting smarter and adapting to try to game the system.  And like you said, new ones pop up all the time! It's a huge pain for casinos and really any website these days when hacking the system is kinda becoming a hobby for some people. 

But it's not only the bots causing headaches and  the online world keeps expanding every day, with more and more people getting internet access, particularly in developing countries where broadband is still catching on.  Even just a few bucks of bonus money can seem like a great prize to them compared to their standard of living.

In that case, you need to edit your first reply so that you don't pass your wrong knowledge on to someone else.


Absolutely not. It's virtually impossible for anyone to guess the presence of a repeated word in a seed phrase. Therefore, a seed phrase with one or two repeating words is just as robust as a seed phrase with entirely unique words. Actually, I believe the opposite is true. Preventing duplicate words would, in fact, restrict the entropy of the seed phrase, making it weaker.

No, I don't think so. There's nothing to stop the same word occurring more than once. But having the same word three times or more in a 24-word seed phrase is highly unlikely.

I don't think that is correct. Do you have a source?


That doesn't prove it's impossible, just improbable.

I'm not sure, but I think TheQuin once mentioned that no one has opted for a Lambo as a prize yet, but instead chose to receive an equivalent amount in BTC. This choice makes sense as it's much more practical.

Speaking of TheQuin,  it's kinda strange that he has been away from the forums for so long. I hope everything's alright with him.

@Kingqa980, if you're still waiting for a response to your messages, you might want to try PMing wetsuit. Even though he's not active on the forum, he should get an email notification.

That's right! It's not that you gotta hide what you're into from who you're with.  More like, be open and take responsibility for those things youre into and  whoever you end up marrying, that's a person you'll share your whole life with.  So you gotta have real talks about your hobbies and stuff how they'll maybe affect your relationship.

I know waiting sucks but these things sometimes take a few days to shake out.  Hopefully youll get a response from them soon and get this all cleared up.  Just try to be patient a little longer.  I'm sure they'll come through for you. If you don't hear back soon though, maybe try hitting up their support again. 

As for that TheQuin guy (Freebitco's representative on forum), yeah I haven't seen him post on the forums in a while.  If he pops back up you could try reaching out to him too to help get this sorted out.

How do you know that you've won? Typically, you should receive an email from them explaining how to claim the prize.
Congratulations on the win if it's indeed true!

Oh boy, that's quite the loaded question! If the person I end up marrying ever asks me to give up gambling completely, they better have some truly amazing ideas lined up to fill that void.
A strong marriage is built on compromise, am I right?

If not it might just be easier to go find a new spouse! 

LOL! I see... Maybe it's just a joke on Rollbit's part after all. No one is stupid enough to use the Cointelegraph name if they wanted to profit from inside information. Besides, the exit price is too perfect, no one could have predicted it so well.

But again, anything is possible.
