I get similar messages sometimes on telegram and other social media, it's not always a scam, it can be a targeted advertisement, based on your searches and activity. But this one might be a scam, I would've banned someone after receiving such an offer. If everything was the way this person says, why would he need you in the first place? If he knows the outcome, why wouldn't he just make large bets and keep all the profit for himself? Also, all this fixed matches thing is already fishy. Once again, why would he risk the exposure of that, considering that it's illegal? Why all that...if only there wasn't a catch somewhere?
My advice - ban.

That's something interesting. I see that there really are no boundaries to what people can think of and make money on Cheesy
And the idea with ETH block hash to verify that live stream isn't previously recorded and rigged is just brilliant. I admire how, despite what many uneducated people say, crypto actually provides society with methods to make different events more transparent and less corrupted.

I think it's fine as long as the betting website pays you off when the outcome is known. Plus, the delay and anticipation make it even more intriguing, imo. I don't think that casinos should pass on big events like this due to an open ending, it's a great chance to draw a big audience and make advertisements.

That's very impressive, nicely done! I think that this increase in sports betting during Q3 might have resulted from numerous sports events cancellation at the end of Q1 and the first half of Q2, during the lockdown, but as the system began to recover - a lot of long-awaited games happened one after another, causing a rise in betting activity. However, the same thing probably happend in other countries as well, so no doubt that proper regulation from the government played an important role here.
730  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why make New Crypto Exchanges on: November 29, 2020, 04:44:17 PM
Lately i see many new crypto exchanges / shitcoin exchanges.
I find that creating new exchanges these days isnt profitable anymore, why would someone switch from a long known exchange like binance/coinbase/etc. to some brand new exchange? Even with a marketing campaign, theres not much you can innovate. All exchanges that promise "no KYC fiat trading" is either a scam or will be shut down due to AML policies.
Exchanges which allow anyone to list their own coin ( exists ) are very vulnerable to Dip and Ditch schemes.

Overall i find working on a new Crypto Exchange a waste of time, money and effort unless you have some truly insane idea.

Am i wrong? Correct me if im wrong, willing to hear all your opinions.
I think it's unsurprising that new exchanges emerge, as the demand for cryptocurrencies keeps growing and the new exchanges are trying to make some profit out of it. It's like if you've asked why different companies develop smartphones when there are already iPhones. I personally use different exchanges depending on my interests. Some exchanges offer lower fees than others, so it's more reasonable to use them if you're exchanging some big money. Some exchanges add new altcoins, the ones you can't find on others. Also if you're an active trader, you'd be interested in swiftly working exchanges, so that the price won't drop while your request is being processed, and there are many other examples.
731  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: In my school, Bitcoin is now becoming a subject on: November 29, 2020, 02:23:29 PM
I don't know if we're the same but in this school year (2020-2021) Bitcoin is now being introduced to our school, although it may not be introduced to other courses, since I am currently taking Bachelor of Science in Information Technology (BSIT) hence, we are to take Bitcoin and the history of BTC. It's actually great that schools are putting Bitcoin to their curriculum, with that, I got to share my experience with Bitcoin, I got the chance to share my knowledge about the history of Bitcoin and how much I benefited from this.

I also decided to post it here because I think this is a big leap towards the future, from people doubting about Bitcoin and now, people are heavily relying on it, being informed, buying bitcoins, learning the ways on how to exactly earn bitcoins.
It sure is a great step towards the new future, bitcoin is part of history now and it shouldn't be denied. Though I think it might've been introduced to you due to the specificity of your course. When I was getting my BSc degree and making presentations about cryptocurrencies I could sense a lot of distrust in my professors, even though it was during courses like the economy, investment business, one would think that these people should know better. Hopefully, it will change soon. 
732  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Poker Probability on: November 29, 2020, 02:34:51 AM
I love to play poker too and usually when I get 4 of a kind cards depending on the number or straight flush then I will go all in. This is what I am always winning at poker and I feel lucky if I had this cards. However it may also sometimes difficult to obtain and get coward sometimes when someone will call huge bet . Poker is an easy game to play but the problem is that you can get emotional in the process of betting either you need to let go of your decisions to call or not every roundswl with bets that can go higher and higher each round and that is one pressure you could get when playing poker.
You just have to play it cool, don't go all-in immediately after getting good cards. I usually try to wait for someone to make a raise (if 6-7 people are playing at the table - most likely someone will do it) and then I call, and then I make my own raise, but gradually, not far different from the opponent's raise, and try to look cautious as if my cards aren't that good.
I also found that in online poker people tend to go all-in and make larger bets more often, so I think it's easier to win with good cards online. Plus no one can see your happy face, I personally have problems with hiding that one Cheesy
733  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: VR online casino games take gambling to the new level 🚀 on: November 29, 2020, 02:05:57 AM
No doubt that VR is progressive technology, but I personally wouldn't want to gamble in VR mode. Speaking from personal experience, I think that VR is best for doing things you can never do in real life, like playing shooting games, fighting zombies, or flying, or boxing, etc. However, the whole visual thing can be distracting, so if we're talking, say, about playing poker - you might find yourself in an hour wishing to take off that helmet and get some rest, you won't be able to focus fully on the game.

It sure isn't a scheme and looks like a fair strategy. But still, you can't outplay the probability laws, it looks like you're assuming that 1.5 odds gives you a high win chance, but it's not, it's actually (1/1.5)*100=66.6%, which is closer to 50%. And seeing as your strategy requires five wins in a row - you're risking to lose all your money in this run. So I guess you can get lucky and get some good wins, but this can't be a constant winning strategy.

I do like the 20% saving part - will save you from further losses, I think gamblers should use this one more often  Smiley.
735  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin price 17000$ today on: November 28, 2020, 04:39:46 PM
I would've believed btc can remain around 18-20k if the increase in price wasn't too sudden and rapid. I believe that whales are standing behind the increase this time. Did you know, that FGI was extremely high for the last month? Also, there was an increase in large volume transactions, which proves this theory. And now we can see the price dropping, probably because investors' fear is increasing now. We're lucky that btc didn't drop as it did after its previous all-time high back in 2017 (for now). So I think we can expect the correction down to 15k, which is still a good price imo, and hope for stabilization.
736  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are you scared? on: November 28, 2020, 01:24:27 AM
I do notice that some people naturally don’t allow bitcoin in any of their daily transactions or there daily activities even when it faster and easier they still not accept or permit it to there life, they still don’t prefer using it, I have noticed this a lot, Some classes of human,Sometimes when they are to receive money from another country like international transfer sometimes it takes 2 3 days to arrive,They will advise them to use bitcoin and they still don’t accept it even it faster and easier. How can we erase the negative thoughts of people over bitcoin? Nobody has any negative thoughts over dollars or there various currencies, We need to think about it.
I'd love to use crypto to make everyday purchases, but, sadly, this isn't possible in my country (unfortunately, for now, cryptocurrencies are only used for illegal business here). As for transactions - if we're talking about transactions within the country, then it actually is more convenient to use bank transfer - it happens instantly (no need to wait for confirmations) and for a small amount of money usually turns out to be even cheaper. The international transfer is another story though, however, I find it difficult to convince someone to use crypto, common people really are afraid, especially the elder ones, they all think it's a financial pyramid and, I'm afraid, nothing can change their mind  Cry
737  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Poker Site Buys $100 Million of Bitcoin Every Month to Pay Players in BTC on: November 28, 2020, 12:11:50 AM
Despite a fact that the news is hard to believe, but somehow it could still bring a positive impact to bitcoins global adoption for more people will get intrigued about what is bitcoin and its value in the gambling world. Even those people who don't use bitcoins yet, but because of the enticing prize that WPN reported then these gamblers will be attracted and begin to adopt bitcoin.
Well, I believe that it is only an advertisement that aims to attract more players especially those from the bitcoin community. They intend to announce this publicly which they can do [hitting two birds with one stone]. First, -- people would know that aside from the fact gamblers who have bitcoins and will play on their poker sites may grow their bitcoin asset if they win in WPN. Second, -- they wanted everyone to know that they are gallant when it comes to prizes and they often make their players a winner. If WPN accepts bitcoin deposit as payment then it will be added on top of the $100 million worth of bitcoin because perhaps they would rather use the bitcoins that they gathered as payment first, before buying outside that will make it more than a $100 million of BTC prize every month.
You're probably right about the advertisement, however, it doesn't mean that this news isn't true. First of all, I think they wouldn't mind acquiring btc themselves, considering its rapid growth, as it might attract new customers. Second of all, it says in the article that
Quote
people are asking for bitcoin
and where there's a demand for something on the market - there will always be a competition, so if WPN doesn't comply with the wishes of customers - there's a possibility that many of them will switch to another network, which allows deposits and withdrawals in bitcoin.

739  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Towards another gambling site. on: November 27, 2020, 01:21:18 AM
For me, there's always been one way to determine whether the game is pure luck, or requires strategic thinking: simply ask yourself a question (or if haven't played that game yet - ask someone who has): am I getting better at this with time? I used to think that poker is mainly luck, but then I watched people who used to play poorly becoming proficient in it, I've also noticed I got better at it with practice. Conclusion: it's not just luck. There was a time when I played roulette quite often and I was never making any progress in it, sometimes I won, sometimes I lost. Conclusion: it's pure luck and one shouldn't expect to make much profit out of it.
740  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Did anyone try to "gamble" with ponzi scheme crypto scam services? on: November 27, 2020, 12:21:25 AM
I personally wouldn't risk playing with the frauds, they'll outplay you in this. Also, with the Ponzi Scheme, you never know at which level of the pyramid you are, what if your funds will be used to sustain the situated higher up investors, but there won't be enough for you?

And even if you get your money and then belt off, think: who will you benefit from? The poor naive people, who had fallen for the scam, wouldn't that bother you?

And this
withdraw it as fast as possible
might not work, as the organizers of such schemes usually take full control of your investments, otherwise, they can't maintain the system and lure new people.
