I am doing the same thing. I received an ARB airdrop this year. I need stables to farm the airdrops. So what I did was use ARB as collateral and borrow the USDC from the lending/borrowing service.  After the airdrop, I paid all the stables and take my ARB back.

This is nice idea to maintain your holdings while participating on campaigns that will give you profit. I’m not familiar on how crypto loans work but the only problem on this strategy is when the airdrop that you join takes too long that cause your collateral assets already liquidated after the coins value dip below the liquidation price.

Nevertheless, I’m intrigued on this strategy as I’m participating on airdrop that requires trading volume on some DEX to receive token. This will help to maintain holdings while gaining airdrops using stables.
742  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Dreaming That I'm Playing In A Casino, Do You Have One, on: August 19, 2023, 01:56:33 PM
I haven't experience dreaming about me playing in a casino but I'd like to experience it someday because it sounds fun.

Maybe you are not gambling much or you didn’t consider gambling as high priority when it comes to getting some entertainment. I never dream about gambling too because this is not my top choice as source of fun and entertainment. I always dream about the games I play since I’m always looking forward on continuing my last save.

The only dream related to gambling that I experience is when I wom a huge amount but there is no detailed vision on how I win. It's really fun dreaming something that you look forward.

Sometimes I wish that I’m just dreaming whenever I win huge amount and lose it all in the because of my greediness.  Cheesy

Good day my fellow Bitcointalk members, i have been longing to ask this question, so I decided to come to you guys to learn from your wisdom rather than having a random online search which seem confusing most times.
Please I want to know the factor behind the rise and fall of Bitcoin price?
Some say its influenced by supply and demand but I need more conviction.

Thanks in advance guys.

News play an important role for the rise and fall of Bitcoin. Bitcoin is very volatile since most of its traders and investors are very sensitive on a little bit of news. This is a double edge sword since Bitcoin price dump hard for a big issue in crypto such as FTX and Luna saga even though Bitcoin is not directly connected to it. While this kind of sensitivity is good too whenever there’s a hype in the market such as the ET application of Blackrock which is not yet effective yet people keeps buying due to the news.

Supply and demand is still one of the reason of rise and fall especially if there’s already an established trend in the market. S&D is a constant factor that affects the price changes on any asset.

Smart contract is open source. Connect your wallet to see what you are interacting with.

I visit the website and there's no way to be verify your smart contract. You are suggesting a very risky proposal because we still don't guarantee the safety of your website while connecting our wallet to see smart contracts will posed risk to our wallet when your code contains malicious command.

I suggest to make the code publicly even without connecting our wallets so that we can still check before we connect.

does bitcointalk previously allow to post without any account? or what is this type of username ("anonymous, guest") with reply?

Click to get redirected to that post!



This topic is already discussed here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5459167.0. Theymos allowed anonymous posting before but through special request only.

I’m not sure on other case of deleted accounts but this anonymous feature really exist on the forum before and probably you can still request it if you really need it.

What if no one deposited money to complete the game? Does this mean that my bet place will stuck forever until someone will finally place bet? What is the house commission of your game because I’m sure that you will take fee for holding both bets.

Lastly, Your game is not open source since there's no way to verify your smart contract for verification of your service fairness. Your website title DoubleMoney sound like a scam doubler.
747  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Wagering requirements for withdraw on: August 17, 2023, 04:29:21 PM
That's the truth that we'll just check it if a problem through the process has been encountered.

It sounds bad but it is undeniable fact, this is what happened in most cases.
Only few gamblers who read some parts of the terms and conditions, but I believe there is no one who is willing to read the whole wall of text in the terms and conditions page.
I myself have to admit that I do not read the whole T&C but I do try to search the things that I think is the most important thing for me.
Wagering requirement for deposit is one of the things that I usually try to find first beside the other important things such as country restriction, minimum deposit/withdrawal and kyc policy. 

Most of the time casino don't require high wagering requirements on deposits and x1 is the standard for most casinos. On this case, Casino offers a promotion that doesn't have wagering requirements on bonus profit. They just move the wagering requirements from bonus to deposit to attract players to deposit since their focus is to claim the bonus rewards that doesn't wagering. With this information in mind, many fail to read the ToS since this commonly ignored since its very long and time consuming to read just like what you said.

I think we should be wary on all the casino that offering bonus that is too good to be true because they might modify their ToS to use against us just like this case.

by this logic any VPN would put you in the same basket as other users
even a premium one could give you the same IP as a cheater

It depends on what VPN services you are using because premium like NordVPN account gives you a dedicated IP assign to you that is not shared with other user. Purchasing a premium VPN that share IP among premium subscribers is useless and waste money because it’s not a complete privacy since you share with others.

I believe most of the premium VIP offers dedicated IP since I use multiple VPN before with this same feature.

Mixin Safe Review


I use iPad to install Mixin messenger and Android phone to install the Mornin Key. I capture less screenshot on the process because most the procedure is just very simple and can be explained via text. I only put screenshot on details that I want to emphasize.


Mornin Key

I download this app on playstore using the download link and guide provided on the mixin safe website when I'm on the process of creating safe. Setting up mornin key account is just like the typical crypto wallet which you will have seed phrase for your account recovery. The ability to store multiple keys at the same time is the best use case for this app because you can save multiple keys on a singe place just like a vault. You can switch account easily and all of them supports easy account switch for each keys.

I use Mornin Key twice during the creation of Safe since it's the required app to become owner and to approve withdrawal transaction which both work smoothly without any error or delayed encounter after I scan the QR code.


Mixin Messenger

I encounter a display error on Mixin Messenger on iOS version. The flag for Philippines is not correct. I double check it on android version of Mixin Safe and the flag is correct on android. You can refer on the image below. That is not a Philippines flag.



Moving forward, I create my account using my personal number while I didn't receive the code at first try. I manage to get the code on the second attempt right after the countdown reset.

I add my friend here in the forum as contact to test the messenger feature. I send text and image without a problem although sending image here consume a little bit of time to upload compared to popular messaging up since I upload same image to test the speed for comparison. One thing I really like and I use the most on this app is the convenience to transfer account to different device such as phone or desktop. It only requires QR scan in able to transfer account on other device.


 
I head over to the wallet to test it out. Take note that I'm using both iOS and Android to see the difference. I just notice that the feature to see connected dapps is not available on iOS while it's just the same account on my android. I'm not sure what's the reason behind this but I will leave this question here.



After I inspect both messenger and wallet feature of this app. I use this to be a member on my safe that I created, It only need one scan and everything is reflected on my mixin safe. I approve the withdrawal transaction using this app on my safe without any problem encountered.


Mixin Safe
After I download and setup my account on both mornin key and mixin messenger. I login on mixin safe website using my mixin messenger account by scanning the QR code. My Mixin messenger automatically create an account on mixin safe right after scanning the QR code on the login page.

My first impression on the mixin safe website is it's very neat that makes it very easy to use. The display is not flashy because it only use plain white background but it's ok for me because this makes easy to browse all the feature because everything is display properly without any flashy display as distraction.

The safe needs to be upgrade first before you finish to create your safe. I just hope that this payment option should be display on the first step since the mixin safe website has no other purpose than safe which means user automatically needs to pay before they can use the website feature. This will save time for user in case they want to pay in advance and setup safe later on since Bitcoin transaction sometimes confirm very slow while you can't use the safe while your plan is not upgraded yet. I wait for my transaction to be confirmed first which consume more than an hour just to activate my safe.

The premium plan price is very fair since it offers free withdrawals and the free withdrawal increase on every higher plan.



I made deposit on my safe and safely withdraw it without any error encounter. My safe balance is updated quickly after my deposit receive confirmation. I can withdraw immediately too even my deposit only has 1 confirmation. My withdrawal is confirmed quickly since they are using high transaction fee which is cool for a free withdrawal feature.




Suggestion

Since this is multiple member approval safe and every member need to access the mixin safe website to approve the transaction, I suggest to have a chat feature inside the mixin safe itself so that every party only need to focus on the mixin safe website on communication if they need something to discuss further instead of picking up phone again to open mixin messenger apps to discuss.


Conclusion

Mornin Key, Mixin Messenger and Mixin safe are sync to each other since the QR code scanning works smoothly. I don't encounter any problem or delay on the whole process because the apps and the safe website is very easy to understand.
750  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: When Trading becomes Unfavourable on: August 14, 2023, 04:49:46 PM
There are few factors that leads to unfavourable trading, these factors includes Greed, and chasing a trend,

Trading can be considered as a PVP match since you are competing with other user to have a good buy and sell price in order to win in trading. Many forgets that you will on,y earn on trading if someone losses since the orderbook is came from other traders too that setup buy and sell order aside from the liquidity provided by the exchange that automatically adjust based on the setup price of traders in the orderbook.

It’s unfavorable on trading if you don’t know how to trade well and can’t outsmart other trader to have a better trade.
751  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Does it make sense to have mobile wallet + desktop wallet from same brand? on: August 14, 2023, 03:46:49 PM
You can sync all your balance even with different brand because they are non custodial wallet.  Bluewallet and Electrum wallet is your best combo if you are an iOS since electrum is not available in there.

The only problem I encounter on iOS is the inaccurate transaction fee and very slow to update to recent transactions especially if you have multiple transactions made on different device with same private key.

Is it going to be issue to insert my private keys on two different devices?

No, as long as both device is secured.
752  Economy / Speculation / Re: BUY Signal on Bitcoin 1WEEK Timeframe on: August 14, 2023, 03:41:27 PM
Can you highlight on your screenshot what’s the same pattern for the buy signal before the 85% pump and the current price? Because all I can see on your chart was Bitcoin price is on a long dumping price trend before that 85% occur while the currency price is sitting on after the few correction of the 85% pump trend.

753  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Legality of Online Gambling in Different Countries on: August 14, 2023, 02:31:31 PM

A gambler should be aware of the laws regarding gambling in their country so they do not get in trouble. Wanting to gamble ignorantly without any idea of the status of gambling laws in your country is not a smart move because ignorance of the law is not an excuse in court of law.


even though online gambling is prohibited in some countries, especially in Muslim-majority countries, there are still many people who gamble and don't really think about the fines or penalties they might receive if they are caught.

especially since online gambling platforms are getting easier to access and use, people seem to be able to play online gambling without worrying that the authorities will catch them, because they can use VPNs and use crypto for deposits, all of this can be done from their smartphones without being able to tracked by authorities.

They are brave because they can safely play online since you can play anonymously using crypto currency while the casino usually return the balance of the said players when they are caught playing from restricted country. Government will not gonna waste their time catching this small fish playing online casino that why many players insist on breaking their law since there’s no one being caught afaik.

Online casino makes gambling possible for those country that ban the use of it due to their religious conflict. It’s very hard to fight this if you are part of the government since it’s very accessible in the internet.
754  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Altcoins profits or bank profits, which best? on: August 14, 2023, 01:38:41 PM
Bank investors have more certainty because there capital is completely safe but they give 8-10% annual profits to the investors of per year. But it is comparatively less in terms of profits.

On the other hand you will get constant profits from crypto as if you are experienced in trading then daily profits is possible. Otherwise you can get profits by investing. However crypto investment puts your capital at greater risk (main point).

Bank profits is useless because they have a limited amount that only be insured and the rest of the balnce goes beyond that insured amount is at greater risk compared on altcoin investments which you have the full control of your money.

Cryptocurrency is surely risky if you will do day trade or risky trade from leverage trading but there’s a DeFi that gives you a better APY compared to bank without exposing on a high volatility risk. I believe only few banks offr 8-10% interest per annum because most of them can give 5% max. A bank offering 8-10% annual profit surely just do it for a limited time. Go for it if they can offer 10% top.
755  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How possible can this be and if possible how can it be effectively detected? on: August 14, 2023, 01:06:05 PM
I was going through some recent history and transactions in a platform and then it crossed my mind that some complaints were being made about unreflected payment and transaction id were being sent to show proof and then these person's later got credited.
But I ask, is it possible to fake a transaction ID and still be undetected?
Can a fake txn ID  be detected in any way effectively?

It’s possible to fake TXID but there’s no way a fake TXID can go to the blockchain because every transaction that confirmed in the blockchain can’t be cancelled or refunded. There’s a risk of double spend using RBF but you will notice it immediately since everything is recorded on the blockchain.

The only time you can become a victim on this kind of scheme is when you didn’t verify transactions on blockchain because the transaction should be available in the blockchain if there’s already a TXID unless you are using a custodial service.

Research
A research is very important to anyone that wants to learn, what is keeping alot of us stagnant of growths in the forum is because of lack of research and lack of understanding, and I find out that lacks of research is what makes some of us to discuss out of point, a research is part of knowledge and also  a discovery, but many newbies including me don't research for what to post, before I don't research bur now I notice that to make a research is very important to everybody that is in bitcointalk.

Improvement on the content and thought of your post through research is the top priority to improve your post quality. There’s a software that can improve the quality of your writings including spelling and grammar while the content itself is only the user can improve it.

You can have a quality post even with minor spelling and grammar error while your content is helpful and understandable since not all user here use English language as primary language. Research and application of your knowledge is the best tool to improve someone post quality.
757  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Anonymity is no longer a benefit of gambling with cryptocurrency. on: August 13, 2023, 05:13:05 PM
Duelbits may have a reputable standing now, but what guarantees their fortitude in the future? The threat of data breaches, hacking attempts, and internal compromises is very real! The economics of it all just dont add up. In their greed to maximize profits, casinos may well be playing Russian roulette with their very survival. How do we know our data is safe? We dont. So why risk it?
How come you single out Duelbits here while casino that collects data including Stake which you are promoting is prone to data breach. Also casino usually use a 3rd party service to conduct KYC as requirements by the law.

There’s always a threat of data breach on all service eve with the government site. At the end of the day, it’s all about trust on the service or else stay away if you are afraid of potential leak of your credentials.
758  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling experience using loan money on: August 13, 2023, 02:43:35 PM
Gambling using a loan money is a big NO. The thing about using loan money for gambling is when you lose, you lose twice. It just doubles your regret, doubles the guilt, and doubles the money you lost. In the worst case, you will be possibly get into debt and that is something that we want to avoid.
If you take a loan to gamble and you lose, you will regret the bet you lost and the loan you took to place the bet. You will start thinking about how you are going to get the money to pay back the loan you took to place the bet, which might end up even affecting your health condition. Some people might end up going for another loan just to pay back the loan they took to gamble, and when the due date for the fresh loan they took is close, they will end up taking another loan again from another place, and they are already in debt. They might not be financially stable any longer. That’s why it’s dangerous to take a loan to gamble.

It depends your financial capacity on the effect of loan to your gambling experience. Some gamblers ask for short loan because they still waiting for their salary. In this case, they won't experience the scenario that you described because they have money to pay for it. They will just pay for additional cost on interest but nothing big changes than regular gambling using own money.

You will only be on disastrous state if you ask for loan without a way to pay it back aside from returning the money that you loan for repayment.
759  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do wager affect outcomes in any provably fair games on: August 13, 2023, 02:27:44 PM
if you are playing on a reputable site, provable fairness won't be a question. but if you are playing on a second-rate casino, that's when you will start doubting their provability. it is understandable about such feeling of getting duped. so yeah, if your instincts is saying something is wrong with your game, better stop and get out. don't wait to let your suspicions be reality. if you have the hunch, maybe, there's really truth behind such hunch. however, the amount you wager doesn't affect whether you will win or lose, so long provability is in play.

Casino usually doesn’t rigged anymore all their games even the second-rate casino since players has high probability of losing than winning due to the design of gambling games. One thing should be wary on a second rate casino is their ability to freeze or close someones account when they are already withdrawing funds with profit.

This is the current norm now on how shady casino cheat with their players and not through their games since most of them just add games from 3rd party unlike before that ever game is coded from scratch.
760  Economy / Gambling / Re: Duelbits.com | Casino & Sportsbook | VIP | Instant withdrawals!|ARGENTINA & AVFC on: August 12, 2023, 06:27:13 PM
I understand it, if it's not allowed to gamble there without VPN then it means they shouldn't, but most of us do not have a right to gamble anywhere, we are banned from nearly every single casino due to our country, and that is an important thing to remember people use this option.

This is wrong not because it’s illegal but because other alternatives for user that residing on restricted country to gamble without this kind of risk. There’s still decentralized casino that offers no KYC and no restrictions or whatsoever that will limit players to play due to location.

The problem is most gambler seeking for licensed casino as safety preference instead of risking playing on decentralized casino. It’s always come down to the pros and cons but there’s always a way to avoid the dilemma of playing in casino while you are restricted.
