The idea that they would be getting their own players to play and win and take out money while still paying the bet holders some shares is a bit difficult but could be easily checked. I do not have the coding experience to check the codes but right now everything is decentralized and the source is open so anyone can check.

Please go ahead and check if there is anything weird in the code that the owners could abuse and if anyone finds anything please share it with us, that way we can end this discussion. I doubt that is possible because who would have a backdoor that you can steal money from people and put it online for everyone to see, that would be idiotic. Plus they have 30% of all bet tokens which is making thousands of dollars everyday so I doubt they even need money to begin with.

The newer places should get a place in the list as well. When it comes to newer places I would suggest checking out eosbet and windice as well. I personally like windice because they are providing what we used to remember from primedice team which is a trustworthy legit casino operation where there is nothing shady going on and they are always there to help you with any problem. Eosbet on the other hand is cool because the more you wager the more you become a part of the casino which is also a cool new feature.

Even this topic is 2 years old, I am not seeing no one is proving a list up to 10 casinos and its "full review". I still believe a full review must be a thing of professional's hence we cannot expect that from forum members in just open discussions. Moreover, I believe OP must have got what we was actually looked for, so it would be good to lock this topic at any time soon.

If you are proper affiliate that is making a decent amount of money or a business person trying to break into casino world and all that then you may pay this money and get into it very early and make a lot of money. However, if you are like me who tries to make about 100 bucks per month from affiliate then going to these things wouldn't make you that much money since all of the options you will face there will be about spending even more money to bring in more money.

I know ways to make a lot of money if I spend 10 thousand dollars more on my work, or 100k more on my work, however what I do not know is how I can make more money without spending much and you will not learn those tricks in these conferences. These places are for rich people to spend their money to get more money not for poor people like me who barely can afford these conferences to begin with.

The main reason is we don't really know how the dex exchanges can be fully secure, I mean we know they claim it to be but we are not educated on the subject.

I mean I can create and exchange tomorrow and claim that my exchange is the best at both security and fast or I can say cheapest and whatever but without a proof nobody will believe me which is why I honestly think that dex exchanges have a superiority in something over non-dex exchanges but people are not educated about it enough, if they provide some proof and they do marketing on the basis of that truth then they could get a lot more famous.

Marketing is something dex places never do, for example casinos that are totally dex never talk about their dex part neither, they talk about how it is possible to make money as the gambler but not the dex part. Basically the simple answer is the lack of marketing in those exchanges.

Ethereum doesn't really hold the "keys" but just opens the door for you on the first one, after that you open the doors yourself, it is just that first unlocking that they do.

I think the risks involved in this are far below the opportunities it creates, they are really trying to help the whole crypto community to build a whole new thing with their erc20 and all other methods so it could be done by everyone, making things easier so that not only the big players can have a piece of the pie but everyone could have it.

It used to be named something else, raiblocks which I think was the time they reached thirty seven dollars or something with that name.

Ever since they were named nano they never really seen an increase, I have purchased a lot of nano at seven dollars because I believed it had dropped a lot already and wouldn't drop anymore but I was very wrong and went as low as under 1 dollar at one point.

I do not know when it will go back or will it ever go back to those prices but I know that I will sell all of mine at eight dollars to take out my profit.

Transparency is becoming a thing thanks to rivalry between politicians too.

I mean I am sure there are things that are still secret and hidden away by people but recently we get to see that many people stole money from public or got bribes and what not and they are told by the opponents of that person, so in revenge they tell that persons secrets and it goes on like that.

Weird part of this cycle is that nobody really cares and the life goes on, they don't even stop stealing, they continue to steal from people or get bribes and that is the sad part. Blockchain is still a great candidate and it should be available and also published on government pages so that we can clearly see who got money from where but if I know any better they will not stop it.

Considering the economy world has right now and the unemployment at sky high numbers in many parts of the world and people who graduate from college (more than ever in history of earth) can't find jobs at their educated areas and start working in irrelevant jobs or even stay unemployed the fact that freelance getting more and more common is great for people who live in third world countries and can survive on 15 dollars per day vs people who are in first world countries where just the rent is over a thousand dollars who will be screwed even bigger with this.

They need to find jobs and get paid to live there and survive whereas I can do the same job 10 times cheaper so company hires me freelance and that dude is having hard time finding a job. I am telling you even though it helps me a lot, its still sad for others.

While the whole world is turning their money into digital form it would be counter productive to actually make a new "coin" and print it out and try to make it accepted worldwide because that would result with a whole lot of centralized issues as well. Why would we want to go back in time instead of forward since we already have a futuristic currency and you want it to go back 5 steps and become a coin instead.

Hell even in today's world we use paper money more than change probably and we use cards (debit/credit) more than we use cash too so if you think about it even without crypto ever existing we are still digital because of banks and you want us to let that go and go back to printing coins. Nobody would accept something as foolish as this and it wouldn't even take off from the idea stage.

The risks are staying behind and not catching up with the norms of the day. For example a bank that is not even looking into blockchain technology will be left behind and the innovations will  make sure they lose profits.

China for example is not looking into blockchain at all and they are making sure they do everything in their power to stop the crypto revolution but it won't happen at all, that is why the Chinese banks will be left behind whereas other banks in Europe and USA will be getting stronger and faster while profiting even more which will result with dollar and euro gaining power over Chinese yuan. So, the risk here is not for banks that take advantage of the situation and building a better economy but for banks that stay behind and not deal with the cards they were dealt.

Stake had one thing that was above everyone else in their ruling which was trust, they are trusted by everyone in the gambling community and they are strong candidates for the best casino out there not because of their games or not because of house edge, certainly not promotions, all because they have been around for a long time (including primedice its 6 years) and never scammed anyone before.

However, right now we are seeing newer places that gets some attention too, I personally like crypto-games and windice obviously because they are doing a transparent running of casino and they have a great support that helps everyone but at the same time there are others too like eosbet doing some dapp deals with decentralized ownership of the casino with their tokens as well. Stake is still the leader right now but I am sure they will get more rivals soon.

When I heard that I would be capable of starting my own casino I was hoping for something that was more than just starting my own room for it. I remember back in the day moneypot allowed people to start their own dice websites using moneypot as their bankroll and they even provided some basic coding for a simple dice website with certain house edges and bankroll management coded into it except it didn't had any design at all, so I assumed this would be about the same, your own totally separate website that you can run your own except you would use the bankroll from a third party, this is not like that.

We are moving forward in time but the technology is going backwards, now moneypot doesn't have that and neither this place, it is still something at least but could be improved by a whole lot.

I always wonder something close, not 25% at this current stage but when the first bitcoin started and the first million bitcoins were mined, what if I got like 100 thousand bitcoins all at once instead of putting that in the market and making people get some of it like it was normally done.

People got bitcoins they mined it, they traded it, they basically used it but instead of that I would have owned and just put it on my wallet. What would have happened? Would I basically kill the market all by myself since there was less bitcoins on the market and it would be harder to acquire which would send people away from it or would it be more valuable and got higher in price quicker since there was even more limited amounts of it?

Plus, would I do something with it or just hold it forever? What would I do if I had 10% of all bitcoins? I can't just sell it right away since that would ruin the market. It is always a tricky thing to control a big portion of a finite resource.

I think we should not expect more from bitcoin but expect more from the community behind it. What I always wanted to make people focus that during 2018 there was a lot of talks about how bitcoin was on a bear run and price went from 20k to 3k and everyone was sad but at the same time there was a lot of companies investing millions of dollars into crypto related business which means the community and business' behind bitcoin got bigger and bigger. They believed the true form of making money from bitcoin wasn't investing into bitcoin but investing into the infrastructure of bitcoins community.

Nowadays we do not see those investments because rich people prefer to put their money directly bitcoin and profit, that will not result with anything good in the long run.

Gamblers for sure, I have met with bunch of day traders in my life and they are usually people who trade according to strict rules which is why I will always love them but will never become one of them. They trade with military precision and they never get out of their system no matter what happens which is not something people who do not have that discipline and I am one of those people who do not have that.

However, they are always trading and profiting on regular days, they never profit on wild days big things happen, even while going up they profit less than others because they are focused on the small movements and when something big happens they always miss, they either win small constantly or lose a lot once for whole their life which I think is rolling a dice and hoping this would be a regular day and not a wild day in bitcoin.

I think best we can hope right now is the fact that bitcoin has been doing well for the past 2 months so the spike has already happened and another big jump could happen but nothing like the previous one.

When people see that price went from around 4 thousand dollars to 8 thousand dollars and you tell them another increase will happen they do not think it will go 9 thousand dollars, they think if it went from 4 to 8 then why not go from 8 to 16 as well. That is why I honestly think that bitcoin already had its huge spike and whatever will happen from now on will be just small movements, it won't be as big ever again for a long time, of course it can reach 16 too but that won't happen in a week with quick gains after quick gains, it will probably take long months to reach there.

I think whenever you have a feeling of "this may end up bad" you should always leave and never stay where you are. The question itself is moronic because if you feel like tether may end up bankrupt or whatever and then bitfinex going with it then why are you still there? I mean if this is a potential then just take your money out and use some other exchange?

Not like bitfinex has something superior to any exchange that you must stay, they are not providing anything that is better than all other exchanges, you can switch from bitfinex to binance and you would still be using a great exchange with much better trust.

So, if you think like this and tether is now hated by many people and they are literally losing support every single day, simply just withdraw your cash and leave.

It is literally like this and nobody made it as clear as OP. Right now we are on a such a threadline that we are either going to have a rally and hype will be back and then we can even break the 10k barrier even go higher, like nobody really knows how high it can get, it may literally rally and go above 20k+ and break previous all time high and nobody would be shocked (of course it may take some time).

Moreover, at the same time this might the top we see for a while and we may go down because everyone will be tired of the rally and the people who bought and helped us get here might be tired and call it quits and sell which would result with us going further down. So we really have no idea what will happen in an hour let alone a week, we may be 6k tomorrow morning or 9k and both of them have equal chances.

Inflation in the sense that the products will be more expensive and inflation in the sense that you have 100 dollars but deal with 1000+ dollar trades are totally different.

If you mean the inflation that trade with leverage like bank of England then that is alright since they are losing money that doesn't exists and the moment they get caught they are forced to remove that option and follow the new laws regarding those stuff and when they "win" money they don't have its just that they bet 1000 gold they don't have against someone who does have 1000 and if they win they don't have to pay anything could very well may have zero since they will just get paid but if they lose than they pay the fiat equal of it anyway. So, long story short the real trouble for humanity is the products getting more expensive not traders using leverage.

I think we are not capable of trading the market as traders or noobs or anyone really because of the unexpected movements of it not because we are bad at calculating it.

Think about it there are stocks all over the world that does exactly what people expect it to do, there are a ton of banking stocks that basically became so boring that they are going up 2 pace and going down one pace and basically do that until they do x3 or x4 then have big breakdown and then redo everything again, this has been going on for over 20+ years now.

Bitcoin is not like that one day we wake up and a bull bought 500 million dollars worth of bitcoin with tether, another day we wake up mtgox trustee sells 34k bitcoins, recently just couple days ago another 25k was sold. If these insanely unexpected sudden stuff didn't happen we would totally time it perfectly but we can't really know these unexpected stuff and when they will happen.
