681  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Geopolitical Tension and its effects on Gambling on: April 18, 2024, 10:21:55 PM
From the last two days, we have experienced some major Geopolitical Tension as Iran invaded Israel and there is a fear whole world including the United States of America, Russia, China and other Middle Eastern/ Asian countries may be directly involved in this war if the situation does not norm quickly.

We have seen some big dumps in the world stock market and crypto market and the world's business may get affected by this situation. I would like to know what impact will it have on gambling ?

Do people gamble less when they see such tensions around the globe?

Will the gambling sites/bookies will have an impact on this situation?
A war like this are often overexaggerated, just like it happened with Russia and Ukraine, there is no world war anywhere, at least not so soon. The Russian-Ukraine war still continues and the world has moved past that when it comes to how things are compared to how they were in the wake of the war. As it is in the Israel-Palenstine war, cryptocurrencies initially sold off due to the war, but what later happened? It moved back upwards afterwards. The sudden shock in the market is what is causing that, which couples with the risk-on nature of the crypto market among others. However, it will have little or no impact on gambling, this will be so, because gambling will continue as usual in most quarters and the last time I checked, Iran, Palestine and Israel are not the big names in the gambling industry. So, they can't pull the ground in any way in this area.

Also, with the inception of crypto and online gambling, nothing serious can ever happen if a full war breaks out. The war may though push more people to stay indoors, just like the time of Covid-19. What happened? More online activities happened of course, and this will cause the gambling industry to witness more patronage. But I do not see this war escalating. Iran is just foolish but the way the whole world is treating the situation and calming the tension shows that there can't be an escalation. Israel is now mature enough not to retaliate but demanded heavy sanctions against Iran. So, everything will soon get back to normalcy in both the cryptocurrency world and the gambling industry which it never affected yet.
682  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who's winning more casinos or gamblers? on: April 18, 2024, 10:01:03 PM
It's obvious that casinos makes more money than players if they are actually operating.
The primary one is to keep the client playing, provide him with a tool to kill time and feels some excitement. That's the psychological aspect that makes gamblers go back, even though deep inside they know they're losing money.

Casino always win long term as long as they are operating and there are players who are willing to take risk as oppose to what why are holding or offering. Imaging the commission costs or transaction fees, that alone makes them profitable or go breakeven to continue operating. The drinks and food inside that too. Casino as a whole not only the machines or games. Thinking about online, it's the advertisements and having VIP players. With the game itself, over a large sample size, the casino always wins because of the game of probabilities.
Above all, casinos remain the winner here, and I mean in all ramifications because a whole lot of things are in their favour. They can wire any game in their favour as long as it is a casino game, and they may charge you fees for games played, for deposition and withdrawal, and they can charge commission where applicable as well. They can even determine the fees at which they use to credit your cryptos, so it is a win-win for them. But I believe you take it far in your own explanation about the food, drinks and other extras, and with the way I see it with the main OP, he did not necessarily talk about the brick-and-mortar style of casinos that you are trying to refer to, that's extreme.

I believe it is basically about online crypto casinos which will also surely have all the opportunities over their customers in my view. At first, it might be difficult for casinos, but later when they are getting more popular, they will have enough money from the losers to pay the little winner and not continue to pay the winners from their own pockets. Over time too, this will stabilize where at least 75% of the winnings go to the pocket of the house, while the winners keep the remaining. This could even be adjusted more in the favour of the house with some casinos, so I do not see any chance of the gambler winning them in the long run. Though the good and lucky gamblers will win often, it doesn't matter, the house is still the boss. If not, the casino business will not be as lucrative as it is now.
683  Economy / Gambling / Re: What are your expectations for Casino coins in this coming bull run? on: April 18, 2024, 09:38:20 PM
Quote
1. RLB - from Rollbit
2. FUN - from freebitco
3. BFG - from Betfury
Rollbit sound more solid to me while choosing it for investment although I have came across those 2&3 platform but most times I do classify token by how famous or popular their site are, If the site is being so advertised then there is every chances that we can investment in their native currency and expect little profits since they can only be spent within their gambling site.
For some while I have never focused on gambling token to invest, even though one must invest in gambling token it should be the one they can use outside their gambling platform or that represent a real usecase.
It looks like any other token. Between these three tokens RLB looks more serious but if you look wider - you can see lots of other interesting tokens.
The same time i`ve invested few times in different kinds of tokens and won prize just 2 or 3 times. But it was enough to get profit summary. So the best way is to split investments in several projects and it mustn`t be only various casinos.

RLB have gain more a lot of movement compare to other token mentioned in this thread. Even in bearish market situation RLB manage to get the hype and have a good run before that's why there's a lot of people are still confident that there's something more to come with RLB especially that we know the company handling it is doing good and yet a successful casino. For what good performance they show during the market is bad for sure this token can also perform and get a good pumps especially if the bull run for bitcoin will start and provably RLB also the other altcoins will come together then get a good price increase.
Rollbit doesn't hesitate with their marketing.  And they keep various types of paid marketing active all the time due to which they get a lot of response from investors and gamblers for their casino platform as well as their tokens. And because of this, even during the bad situation of the market, RLB was able to create hype in the token market. and it might do a bit better during Rull Run. So if one is able to take the risk that he will not regret if he loses then of course he can invest in any coin be it casino token or any other platform.
Yes, the reason there is hype about RLB is because their casino platform is so popular. and it is also true that their potential marketing strategy has managed to position both their casino and token in a good market position. BFG platform was one of the most hyped platforms on this forum but they couldn't sustain their hype because they didn't continue their marketing here.  And they don't seem to care much about their tokens so even though there is some trading volume, the token price is not improving.
The most important thing about casinos token is that it is a reflection of the shares-like performance of the casino, it can be rightly said that it is a reflection of the progress of the companies as well. If big casinos like Stake decided to create its token today, even without hyping and marketing it much, it would hype and market itself naturally, that makes the difference and is more reason why RLB and not BFG tokens is performing better. BFG token is not even a token to think about, it is a shittoken in my opinion. Even with the space it (RLB) uses in gaping the next rival is more than #300 by the number on the crypto market rating, which can only indicate that it is doing really well as far as their token is concerned.

This is beyond the marketing in my opinion as coins and tokens will get to a point and start marketing themselves based on the news, headlines, recent breakthroughs and company success among others. All these matters to naturally call supporters and investors that will continue to invest their money in such projects. And over time, in the next 1 year, I am certain that the price, value and market capitalization of the likes of RLB would have increased significantly, and maybe the position would have moved from the current #224 to #above #150 on the crypto rating platforms.
684  Economy / Gambling / Re: Share trusted VPN Friendly crypto casinos on: April 18, 2024, 04:11:01 PM
If we talk about the practice of a player who plays in violation of these prohibitions and uses a VPN, then, I think, in 95% of cases (and maybe 100%!),
if the player wins some kind of big win, he still will not be able to get it  .  And the casino will introduce a restriction, and a bank transfer cannot be done normally.  Well, if th e payment is a cryptocurrenncy, then there is a KYC requirement, and either the client himself will refuse to do it, or the casino will point out obvious violations of the rules and this prohibition. 
So playing through a VPN turns out to be extremely dangerous for the player.

Yep, there are definitely risks in using a VPN to access gambling on various sites, and users should be aware of this. Even if a user clarifies this issue with the casino support and gets a positive answer about the use of VPN, it doesn't guarantee that the casino won't change its mind or change the ToS at any point in the future.
The subject of using the VPN with casinos has been so controversial in my opinion as some casinos would say they accept it while others would say they do not accept it. Nevertheless, my conclusion on this remains that if you can do without the use of a VPN, please do, this is better than putting oneself in any controversial circumstances where the casinos will now be using it as an excuse. At times, it is not about the terms and conditions of the casinos, they might even be silent about the use of VPN, but when the issues arise, you will see them talking about double or multiple accounts by a single user, which is where gamblers hands are always tied. This is especially bad because the casino will only be alleging this but will not be able to prove it openly. However, the fairest ones may just send you further proof, but certainly cannot give you their system to verify, so you have no say here. So it is all about the casino in this regard.

Many are already victims of this since there are no independent investigators to work it through for both parties and I am certain that in most of the cases, the casinos would be lying, those guys might just be the victims of that because if they can use that as an excuse to lock people's account and confiscate their money to themselves. This is when the VPN was never the issue, how much more when the person uses the VPN? It could be worse. I wonder why they do not even do an independent investigation internally to be sure if the same person is actually behind the screens. After all, if casinos are sincere, the gambling styles of the players can never be the same.
685  Economy / Gambling / Re: Slot Educational on: April 18, 2024, 03:50:33 PM

This is definitely unpleasant, especially this very psychological state that occurs after losing a lot of money.  And especially if, in a state of excitement and euphoria, you lost more than you could afford.  This state, in my opinion, is quite close to depression and, of course, it should be avoided if possible. 
But to avoid such a situation, you just need to use some of your own methods to be able to suddenly stop the game.  I think that experienced players have such methods in their arsenal.  Well, for example, at such a moment your friend, who, for example, is watching your game, will call you on your mobile phone.  And even such a call to your phone can become a trigger for you to slow down your game.  Well, this is a primitive example and it involves the help of outsiders.  In this case, your friend.  But I think these methods are quite effective.  It's just a distraction and switching your thoughts.  And some people themselves are capable of doing this even in the process of a very gambling and emotional game. 
But this is moost likely an experienced gambler.
Once you are on such condition or matter then you would really be that having that hard to control within yourself on which your brain is really that aware on what you are doing but since its been mixed up with emotions then this is where things or decisions will really be altered and ended up on not really showing up some care on the things that you would really be needing up to. As for these slot educational
parades then its really that something which is really that something relevant on which it would really be bringing out that awareness into those people who do really be able to sees it.

It is somehow that not all people would really be that be making out those realizations on which there are ones who would really be that curious about it. In result? they would really be that
engagement on which it could really be that potentially be ending up on being an addiction on the time that they cant really be able to control themselves specially on dealing
and spending money on it.
All these mechanisms of player self-control, in my opinion, are of course developed as the player gains gaming experience.  This does not happen quickly and is sometimes associated with many unpleasant losses during the game.  But this ultimately can be called the player’s learning process, and any experienced player has gone through this stage of developing their gaming skills. 
This is why I say you should not put your money in what you do not understand. Maybe such a person should be on the lookout at first to gain the right knowledge on how those people doing it are actually going about, and when money is to be committed to it, it should be a small amount of money that is gradually increased over more experience. This is how beginners will not be wasting money unnecessarily, and I hope the person is fortunate enough to be wagering that little amount of money via the casinos that can provide that affordability. Also, in games like Slots, I do not think there is one big speciality to be learned, and I must say that it often comes to the gamblers naturally on how to play it and also at the time to make a change of pattern by instincts.

Again, no matter how the gambler thinks he knows how to play the Slots games, it is all about luck and nothing more. You might believe that you need more learning since a better pattern or good skills made someone hit it big in Slot games, but I say it is not. It could merely be a positive circumstance at that time.
686  Economy / Gambling / Re: What do you want to see in casino reviews? on: April 18, 2024, 03:34:30 PM
Casino reviews are very important for their user. New users find a lot of information about the game and website. The review contains a full map of any Casino platform, website performance deposit withdrawal, and bat gaming slot Spain. Everyone should read carefully casino review. It helps the new user to make the right decision about the casino site. payment method is very important for any casino. Easy payment and withdrawal system like a lot of customers. A lot of casino owners make fake reviews. You should check and try to save your money from scammers. A review is important for online casinos.
Yes, a user can learn a lot about a casino site from a review site. So a review site should write about the important aspects of a casino site in detail. these can be about Kyc, about vpn, about support services, bonus relations and many other facilities. Now in the online world there are many review sites in which other sites give ratings in exchange of money.  So before trusting a website one should have a good idea about the review site to see if it is reportable or not
Your concluding part is good in this kind of arrangement and will never trust a reviewing site that was all written by the owner of the website. No matter how good or pretending they can be, I can't trust them because that site was actually created for such a purpose, it is all about making money, so what do you expect? In some cases, the website could compare the casinos together in the form of rating them, but they trickily say better/best of their well-paid masters and carefully reduce the value of the better ones by their rating. This makes it awkward unless the review site is such that is being reviewed by external users where the truth can averagely be known.

Also, the sentiment of the reviewers matters too, since you can't check review sites on the reviews written about 10 different casinos and they are always the same. That means something must be wrong somewhere, which I know could be because of the money paid or just a sentiment about the casinos by the writers of the reviews. This is also the reason why everything we read as reviews should be averaged, and before this can be done, we must read reviews from many sources and not trust a single source to avoid being the victim of the two factors that could influence reviews.
687  Economy / Gambling / Re: Why they need a license if bitcon is not money? on: April 18, 2024, 12:10:22 PM
even those licensed casino , all we need is trust because we are entrusting our details to them.

Definitely, but not every license casino can be trusted.

yeah , that is correct because those casinos even licensed are sometimes scamming players this is why I said entrusting each site is important but better to dig deep about which site are we engaging and depositing our money.
keep safer and look for much decent and responsible site than those scammers.

Well, I agree that licence is no guarantee that casino could be trusted. However, it's some kind of guarantee that is paft of system or regulator that has certain mechanisms to monitor its business and even protect players so that you know that you can report irregularities, scam or similar. So I always feel more secure and protected with licensed casino and at least I don't have the feeling that  I'm part of something illegal.
In thiswe are different mate because I am more on trusting those site either licensed or not? but those who
has vouches here in forum, I mean there re lots of recommendation and  has an active representative in bitcoin talk
in which at least we have assurances that out issues will be adressed in rightful manner.
I didn't get you correctly due to the poor English, or perhaps you forgot to read and make corrections. Notwithstanding, did you mean you support the licenced ones or what? If yes, you've made the right bargain, but it is not an automatic endorsement of sincerity or serving you right. You might do yourself a better favour to actually verify them well if you can go through the stress, though it is not necessary. Some do this because many of these so-called licenced casinos are not actually licensed, it is a pure lie, and since they are using the pretended licenced numbers of weak regulators, that will continue to go unabated since those regulators will not even search for sanctions or to issue public warning.

Also, I love the remark that you eventually made here in relation to Bitcoin talk. Though, they can't entirely be trusted, but some of the casinos that are not licenced but advertised and vouched for here delivered so well since there were little or no complaints at least from Bitcointalk members. But like I said, it is not all of them and there are a few of them that people were unable to get their money from. So, serious care is needed here to avoid issues as well.
688  Economy / Gambling / Re: My betting strategies on: April 18, 2024, 11:56:04 AM

I don't even believe in any strategy when gambling, I don't think there is a strategy that can make our chances of winning bigger or a strategy that can minimize losses when gambling. For financial management strategies, maybe I believe in that and actually it is a different thing. I mean that when we can manage our finances well, it is less likely that we will become addicted or spend a lot of money on gambling, because we apply the right allocation of our income every month.
Meanwhile, in what game can I apply it? Maybe in sports betting we have to have more knowledge to make us win, but in some other games what should we do, for example in luck-based games like slots. There is no strategy in the game because it all depends on luck. No one can guarantee whether we can win and no one can guarantee that we will lose, but what is clear is that the chance of losing is greater than winning.
Most times, gambling  is game of luck although  some. Require you to think through your winning team if we are even talking  about  sports there's  still a higher percentage  of luck , although most times prediction  are always right  which can accept  that sport is more flexible  than game based ...
Out of all these, people  might still find a way of believing  a strategy gaming which is mostly interm of fund management  well I wouldn't  call most of this a strategy rather  I will take them as a normal procedure  which you ought to have follow right from the beginning  of gambling  journey
I wouldn't like to downplay the role of good strategies in some aspects of gambling. Good, if you are referring to the casino games, then you could be valid since we are actually playing against some kinds of algorithms, so we need much luck to win. That is why I always say that in casino games, one may start gambling today and win the Jackpot, while the person who has been gambling for a long period of time may not be able to win at all. But when it comes to sports betting, my friend, it is practical and speculateable. Maybe we should say that it is not all speculations that are right but that doesn't call for us to downgrade the importance of having the right experience and skills above luck in this regard.

This is where the proper budgets and management come in as well because if you believe you are the best speculator in sports betting, you will have the time that you will lose also. For this, one has to plan on the right management during the losing time. Aside from this, I am certain that more expertise and plans are needed than luck in bettings that relate to sports as the overall result will still be to your advantage, unlike other aspects of gambling.
689  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: advice for a beginner on: April 18, 2024, 08:23:14 AM
Hello, I'm a new trader. I started a month ago. I deposited $100, and now I've lost $40. Any advice for me? I watched some YouTube videos and found a technical analysis video which helped a lot. I started not losing as much. Sometimes I even earn. But even though, I feel so lost. Like every day, I see some random coins get boosted. Some people earn from how they know that coin will go up. I'm sorry for my bad English; it's not my first language.
Actually the newbies think that trading is very easy but actually trading is not that easy. Trading is very easy for those who are professional traders, they can profit by trading. As you are a new trader you should learn about trading more. Those who are professional traders were also new traders in the beginning and slowly they became professional traders. You learn to analyze the market, try to buy the right coins. Don't rush to trade, be patient and learn more. Hope you too can become a professional trader one day.
You have some nice advice, every beginner should calm down, trading is not what they will achieve in just a moment, it takes time and the length of time it takes depends on the beginner. This is because they are more serious about trading than each other, many of them may be ranting or playing too-know, what shows what they really are in trading will always be their trading performances. Unfortunately, the performance of beginners is always the same, some may try in the beginning but will still fail.

It was so annoying with some beginners when I was also learning how to trade. In fact, no one is lousier than the new traders if they know a simple trick about the market, you will see them making their mouth about it but they will always lose their money back. As a calm and collected person, I like to do my thing without intimidating, but these guys were so intimidating about a little success. In the end, they will lose them back. Today, none of them is trading again, but the calm and collected one, which is me is still trading.

So, it is not about being lousy or rushing for success, but training and perseverance until your joy is full. Even the so-called professional and expert traders are still losing and facing enough challenges of their own about trading, so why rush and make it look as if you know it all already as a beginner?
690  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin pump|before halving on: April 18, 2024, 08:00:51 AM
I'm glad to be reading your post that was dated 11th of March today, to have seen who won between you and JP Morgan. Like I always say, those renowned analysts are not perfect, be it in the banking industry or any great institution. They at times say whatever comes to their head and when they are right people will start idolizing them. But now, you got it correctly ($72k) as Bitcoin reached the peak of about $73,850 before it hovered so long around the level but wasn't able to breach it. But JP Morgan failed ($42K) as Bitcoin was not even dreaming of dipping that low. These guys may be getting it right with their fiats guessing but I think they should leave cryptocurrency for its lovers and experts.

At the moment, the asset has succumbed to some selling and I expect it to sell further over time since it is now in an extreme bearish phase nearing the bottom of 2024. I will be bullish again on this asset if it shows serious rebounds and a bullish reversal of the current bearish correction.
691  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin halving countdown on: April 18, 2024, 07:45:41 AM
-snip-
I want to know what we are excited about,and to know if we're slacking over this opportunity.
I presume alot of investors are purchasing more coins too in regards to this.
Well, in my understanding, halving has been hyped so well in the past to the point that it has created the needed demand for Bitcoin as intended. For this, we can't take it lightly this time too as it has helped the market to attract FOMO and investors over time. This may not particularly happen immediately, nevertheless, it happened in the past all the same. It could take months for the bull run to start, but it could be faster than that at times, especially when the market is already at the bottom levels and still maintains a much bearish view when the halving happens. But if the halving meets a bullish sentiment, it might want to wait for a while before moving higher.

As for this year's halving, I am still strongly in doubt, but thankfully Bitcoin itself is nearing $59,000 as I write this post, so it could be an encouragement in this halving period since it will meet a bearish outlook which it might turn bullish. Insightfully, the ETF has changed the narrative since last year where for the first time the asset hit again its former ATH before halving. This is where my calculation about Bitcoin in relation to halving got scattered, but I hope that soon I can be able to take the pieces together again.

However, all focus is now on halving, and I would like to advise you to analyse your trading chart accurately in line with it and never be a blind follower of what you see or hear about Bitcoin.
692  Economy / Speculation / Re: are you expecting Bitcoin to hit $400,000 after the bull run. on: April 17, 2024, 07:46:40 PM
I'm seeing Bitcoin rising to $400,000 before the first quarter of 2025, the bull run this time it will be different from the last one. Bitcoin is $70,000 now the halving have not started, I'm looking at the market that this is the right to buy and hold after the bull run then you sell and make your triple profit.
In your dreams, bro, the $400,000 is way too high. Don't tell me you are one of the dreamers of the last cycle that their dreams never come to fruition. This is for obvious reasons as they were not calling unreasonable prices. Do you want Bitcoin to do a magic? Because I do not possibly know the amount of money that investors could garner in such a small time space that will pump it with about $5T to warrant reaching that level. Even with the way the coin has been behaving since around February, don't you think it is stressed for now? This is for the lack of more sustainable liquidity and more reason it has not been able to hit the expected $75,000. Well, the much-anticipated halving is near now, let's see what will come out of it.

Notwithstanding, let me conclude you are just making the joke of the century, however, if Bitcoin hits $120,000 in this bull run, we should all be grateful for it.

694  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: WIF was a good memecoin, any other about to go up? on: April 17, 2024, 07:02:06 PM
I never took WIF seriously at first, and I must say that I regret it. The BOME which I took seriously eventually disappointed me as it made it known that its important rising had been done on the first day of its listing where it rose sharply by almost 20 times in less than 24 hours.

It seems I'm the same as you. At first I thought WIF was not a good project. As far as I remember they didn't have a big promotion. I knew about WIF when it was listed on several markets but I was really doubtful about the project. Finally after the price went up then I heard about BOME and many said it was a promising project. I bought it straight away on the first day and it turned out it was my mistake. It seems I should be more careful when investing in meme coin projects.
I wouldn't even dare to think WIF is not a good project because I know that no project listed on the Solana ecosystem will be bad, at least for now. And with the way people are appreciating and supporting the meme coins listed on this blockchain, I would never have doubted that. Also, Solana still has low meme coins listed on it compared to others, so it still has room to accommodate many more.

In my case, I think what happened could be termed negligence, I just lacked the seriousness. I placed all my attention on BOME due to how it performed on the first day of listing. Not knowing that the meme coin had done what it had to do on the very first day of listing, but only added a few more in the weeks after. But WIF performed much better, it conveniently moved x3 of its closing price of the first day it was listed on Binance within a few weeks. It would have been a very good success in that short time.

Well, it is never too late as it has moved back to around $2.5. The coin may still move towards 50 in the next 1.3 years.
695  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Price action strategies on TRADING on: April 17, 2024, 04:35:09 PM
Thank you for this, at least, if it doesn't help me, I am sure it will help a lot of people.

When I started trading, I was busy chasing indicators, robots and other trading software in the bid to unlock the secret of trading, not knowing that "what I was looking for is in my pocket." I discovered this many years later, and I have never regretted being a price action trader today. Price action is simple and could act as a pattern to know the trend of the market and also acts as support and resistance. I use this very well in both trading analyses and risk management to set my stop loss decisively. It has been so useful to the extent that a day will not go by without me using the price action, to show how important it is to my trading.

I can frankly say that price action can do everything traders need to spot the trend, place the stop loss and take profits. The patterns are simple and undeniable, though many people often underrate it since it is simple, not knowing that simple systems are the most powerful in some circumstances.

And for the record, I use Price Action, Support and Resistance and a Trend indicator to spot all of my trades in any market possible, and I must say that the results have been so lovely.
696  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The claim of OMNI airdrop is today! what do you think? on: April 17, 2024, 04:18:14 PM
If you were one of those NFT holders or testnet users, you're lucky to be receiving some airdrops. Now the question is: are you going to keep them or sell them?
I think it could be a scenario where people sell early and regret it later.
I was reading about OMNI a while ago but I never took it seriously. Anyway, thank you for this short information that goes deep to an extent. But why list it at this time, didn't they have a speculator? Some projects are good and perhaps also hyped well, but it becomes a problem when they are listed at the wrong time. The crypto currency is still on a bearish correction quest and we do not know how long this will last. They should have waited for after halving, having carefully studied the market mood before making these announcements of the airdrop and listing on major exchanges.

The hype and heat are much as the top exchanges like Binance, Bybit, and Kucoin among others have listed it today, but the coin has been on the bearish trend. This is why I do not really go for the hype but follow the market trend, the project itself and the market position, which includes people's projections toward the project. The purpose of the projects also matters, which I believe will later help OMNI.

As for me, I will wait, there is no need to in buying a project that is listed in the middle of a bearish crypto market's general sentiment.

Stealing for the sake of gambling is the height of it and I have never seen or heard of that story before. Not with the uncontrollable ones I know, they always have their limits, and when there are no friends and families willing to give them money anymore and they do not have anywhere to borrow from, I believe they often accept that situation as their last and do not resort to stealing. In my thought, I believe the person who went to the extent of stealing to gamble is a criminal on his own, I will never take the excuse that it is the addiction per se that led him into it but the lack of contention and for his desperation for "money."

You'll be shocked at what gambling addiction could make some individuals do, I've heard a case of a guy who tried to steal another gamblers wallet in a bet shop and when he was caught his excuse was that he used his tuition fee to gamble and lost everything so stealing was the only option he could think of to try again and see if he could recover his lost funds, funny right? That's how foolish some individuals could be when they become addicted.
 
 Well you might be right though because someone that's not a thief won't think of that as the first step to take in recovering their funds and maybe the guy who tried to steal that wallet was trying to use his gambling addiction as an excuse to get pardoned but unfortunately for him a crime is a crime and you'll get punished for it no matter the excuse. The best thing to do would've been walking out of that premises and go seek other better alternatives to recover his tuition fees.
I like your concluding part, it at least levelled the whole discussion. I know that there are thieves and people who do unspeakable things for the money, and if such people are gambling, I believe that they can naturally think towards that angle since they are bad people. This is the school of thought I picked my reply from and the only reasonable angle I can think of people that bad people will always be bad and can go to any length to achieve their badness.

If such people are now gamblers, some people would say they acted because of the addiction/desperation of gambling, but no, they acted in such a manner simply because they are bad and shameless and nothing more. This is all about needing money, what you use the money to do does not matter, what matters is how you get the money, is it good or bad? That's what defines you. If the source of money is bad, then you naturally want it in a bad way, that's why you went for that choice and not the gambling that makes such a person do that. You can imagine the example you narrated, that guy was desperate already, and that's why he resorted to stealing someone's wallet.

That's so senseless because no one forces him to gamble all his school fees, the greed of needing more money, or the frustration of not having enough pushed him to that. Something must have pushed every thief also. This may not even be an addiction case but a mere case of a victim of gambling who later became desperate. No matter why, anyone who goes to the length of stealing to gamble should be rehabilitated immediately. If not, such is near his true physical madness because such is already insane.

Ive been hearing about situations where someone buys a coin for a certain rate and not quite long after,  the said coin drops in value, or  someone sells his coin for a certain rate and then it appreciates just after.
What's your take on this? Given the period we're in is it buy time or sell time?
What you just explained is the market dynamics, you can't expect what it would do in the very next minute at times. This is why it is good to be well-informed about it before trying to risk your money on it. The market can rise or fall at any time depending on the prevailing sentiment caused by many factors (fundamental and technical), which can't obviously exclude manipulation as well depending on the asset we are talking about, the relevance matters.

Above all, try to learn to be a good speculator, this is what will help you in the journey of trading and investments. The more you know how to read your chart very well and act rightly, the better for you. This is even as you should be ready with the right money and risk management no matter how good you are at reading your charts. Anything surprising can always happen in the market, so be advised!
699  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Memecoin hype getting higher on: April 17, 2024, 08:50:48 AM
It's true that people always have interested in memecoin. I heard many strange memecoin names. i avoided those and was launching at corner. But it seems revolution happened in memeocin industry in the start of 2023. In that yeat, a lots of memecoin had come in crypto market and made people millionaire. Pepe, Bonk, Meme and so on. and in 2024 WIF and BOME again have created hype and made people millionaire again. Now memecoins are in demand due to the possibility of higher returns. And it makes people crazy. What's your opinion about this?
I am confident to say that the hugest return that I've realised in my crypto activities was through the meme coins, and practically, I have the same belief in meme coins because the cryptocurrency industry itself is a virtual industry that is being made valuable due to people's money. For this, how are meme coins different from other coins linked with some projects? The reality of what we see now speaks volumes, and it was mainly the dominance of the likes of Dogecoin, Shib, Pepe, Floki and others initially, but when these meme coins were unable to live up to expectations after the last bull run coupled with the magnitude at which they dropped, it created fear in the minds of people, so they relaxed in them.

This is even as many meme coins created later did not perform up to expectations. This was a huge discouragement for people, but thanks to the upgrade and higher scalability in the Solala ecosystem, this did not only help Solana but also the projects listed in it. No wonder the likes of BONK, BOME, WIF and others performed so well. Solana actually made this happen, so I expect nothing less, and now, many projects are being listed on the Solana ecosystem and I advise everyone to be on the lookout for it as it is where bias has shifted lately.

Due to this, meme coin or not, it has a high likelihood of performing well with the Solana ecosystem.

Once, Litecoin was a very famous coin and it was called "Digital Silver".
But nowadays, very few people talk about Litecoin anymore.

Is Litecoin dead in your opinion?
Litecoin was one of the few coins I had my eyes on when I newly discovered cryptocurrency and I used it in place of Bitcoin for many years to make payments and receive money. And the fact that it was so convenient to do that, I believe that it was a voice to reckon with, especially by the status of the second cryptocurrency ever created. But this coin refuses to live up to expectations, and I think it's because of the too-much similarity to Bitcoin. Everything you see as improvements in Bitcoin will quickly be replicated in Litecoin. The scalability is another issue, we can't compare it with the likes of Ethereum, BNB chain ecosystem, and Solana among others.

Well, if it can break away from copying Bitcoin and improve its scalability, anything can still happen in the future.
