Welcome to bitcointalk forum Spinarium.
You have very familiar website design that is similar to other available gambling services, so are you working with other casinos or you just using the same template like they are?


Yes, this is also what caught my attention, the design and that mascot? Looks very familiar indeed, for sure gamblers here knows what platform it is,  Smiley

In any case, as the saying goes, the more the merrier, so for us gamblers hearing a new website, then it's a sure win to all of us. So let's see how this new casinos will go here, and it's only two things, either stay here and before a reputable casinos or shutdown like what we here recently of another casino.
762  Economy / Speculation / Re: Patterns to the halving Changed | New investors fate? on: March 05, 2024, 09:20:05 PM
My question is: what's the fate of late investors?

What are we to expect in this market after now?
Our target is not the all-time-high only but also six digits. If bitcoin can go six digit, that is still profit if compared to the price now. I am expecting bitcoin to get to at least $100000, but I guess all-time-high would be around $170000 or more. If bitcoin get to such high price, that means profit is still the fate of late investors, although they can not make money like those that have invested when bitcoin was below $20000.

Exactly, at least six digits should be the bare minimum before we should sell or take profits. And I don't think this is the first time that we have seen this pattern? maybe I'm wrong. But what can we do? if the pattern change like getting a new all time high before the halving then it's good to us.

Anyhow, the price is now on a decline, still high but -5% in the last 24 hours. This could be the indication that others have said or predicted, that the price will go down massively for one leg down before the halving and then go up again post-halving for the bull run that we are expecting.
763  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Forecasting the areas that will receive cash flow in 2024 on: March 05, 2024, 10:35:24 AM
Is memecoin still relevant? If it is then as we see currently solana tokens dominate the sector, but i guess it is more of a traders hype than big money hype. And i agree it will be mostly bitcoin L2 and modular blockchain. Then maybe later it will be bitcoin meme token 🤣 i sure there will be one

A high amount of money will go into AI based coins and tokens as well. Not just have it in the name, not just something that would be "AI is in our roadmap", I mean something that people already built and want money for it. So, if you can use it and get good results then they could do it.


Not sure as i feel AI hype is already gone.

That's why it's called memecoins as it will be relevant, the question is are people going to invest it or not? For me, yes, there will be investors willing to pour their money on it because it's either they know what they are doing and they know that they can make a lot of money in short period of time, or newbies falling for the trick. As for what could be the next hype, yeah AI based could be the biggest thing in this bull run, AI or VR or anything that will change our life experience as this technology could be applied in every facets of our lives.

Of course, as Bitcoin Spot ETF has been approved, many are gambling that it will be the version of ETH that will be approved next. And so if that happens consider another huge bull run for ETH and other altcoins might follow it and the effect will trickle in the market.
764  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2024 NBA Season on: March 05, 2024, 02:51:10 AM
There really are times that teams and players don't perform as what we're expected. I still remember those years when GSW after being the champs, they've became slumps during the next years.
Apparently the Warriors dynasty isn't forever...
I'm amazed by GSW performance in the game against the Celtics yesterday, and also by the Warriors decline year after year, a few seasons ago they were the most feared team in the NBA and Today, the Warriors are a team that is fighting to get a seed in the playoffs in the league...

Since he is making history at that age, he will probably stretch more of his records so that the next generations will gonna be having a hard time breaking them and as we can see, he seems not getting old due to the continued maintenance of his body well since he is taking it seriously by paying huge amount of money just to get the proper exercise and diet to play effectively on the court even at that age. If he can just win one more championship in his last years in the NBA, the GOAT debate will probably close there but at this rate, he is struggling to get that one and the other players on different teams are improving as well which makes his road to another championship dark.
Yes, this's incredible, I even believe that LeBron James is a game changer in the NBA, in December this year he will turn 40 years old and he's still playing at the level of an AllStar player.
I have no doubt that he will be able to play another 2, 3 or even 4 seasons and after that, he will retire. I don't know, but I still believe he can return to Cleveland and retire there.

That's debatable though if Warriors dynasty is over, but then again, 2 seasons ago, lots of their critics like Perks says that they are done, but they proved them wrong by winning the NBA championship again. Those are the days that Jordan Poole become the 2nd or 3rd best option for them and Wiggins mindset is winning. He even made the All Star that time.

But today's team are different, and obviously the are getting older, Poole is no longer with them, Klay is inconsistent, Wiggins missing in action. And Draymond started to show some mental issues. But let's see, it hard to totally to write off a organization that has the championship DNA.
765  Economy / Gambling / Re: Share trusted VPN Friendly crypto casinos on: March 05, 2024, 02:21:30 AM
Hey everyone,

I'm thinking about starting a website that talks about crypto casinos, and I need your help to pick the best ones. I want to focus on casinos that are safe and reliable, so my site doesn't end up recommending bad ones. I plan to write honest reviews and also share what other people say online, kind of like how old blogs used to do where it mattered what people thought about a site instead of taking dirty money from scam projects.

Can you suggest some crypto casinos that are okay with using VPNs?

It's a plus if they're cool with KYC stuff or even better if they are NO KYC.

Also, if you've ever taken money out from these places, please tell me how long it took. It's annoying when sites say INSTANT WITHDRAWAL, but then the casino's support says it might take up to 12 hours.

You have to think this way, if they will allow their customers to used VPN, then it will defeat the purpose of regulations or what their license will allow them to do. In short it's for the compliance that they are not allowing VPN, simply as that.

As for which casinos "allow" this? I think there could be 3rd tier platforms, but you can't be assured that you will get your instant withdrawal if you win big as they can used the excuse of your account has been found to be using VPN.
766  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Latest News On Golf Sports Betting. on: March 05, 2024, 01:59:37 AM
I have a love and hate relationship with Golf, so I must admit that I'm lost already with new names in the PGA. I started following way back, when Tiger Woods is the big thing and the next wave of golfers. But after that, for unknown reasons, I shy away from it and move to other sports like basketball and boxing.

Anyhow, yeah it could be boring as hell if there are no players to hype it for this years US Open.

But I still believed that it is still one of the most watch sports by Americans.

767  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which player are you? on: March 04, 2024, 08:47:07 PM
Do you prefer games where you know right away whether you've won (or lost) casino style, or do you prefer other games like sports betting? Do you have any other favorite games?

I used to play slots before, but now I just focused more on sports betting, I don't know but I have a string of bad luck playing slot machine and so I just decided to quit and bet on NBA. A have a few wins here and there, but at least I have broken the curse on slots.

And according to pool, it's where most gamblers play here in our community. No surprise though, we have a lot of threads on games and others give tips, shows their analysis and their expertise and then you can either tail them or you as a fan has a different bet, and it's obvious that you have higher chance of winning as compare to luck base games.
768  Economy / Gambling / Re: An open letter to Eddie from Stake with lots of shares on Reddit on: March 03, 2024, 11:45:01 PM
You should have posted the content of the letter in addition to the link. It's already deleted by the OP but I'm guessing based on the replies there that it's about the non-stop advertisement of streamers on Kick causing addiction even among the younger generations. I don't really know what to say since it's a streaming platform that they also own. It will probably take more letters like that before Stake reconsiders.

And I don't think that Stake might consider this. I mean they are in the business of making money, and just like any business, they will aggressively promote it. How many of us when we are little used to take a job to give flyers in the street because we are hired by someone to let others known about their business? This is pre-internet and social media.

But now that we are in this age wherein everyone can be put online including ads and promotions, I think this company will take advantage of it. Same with that streaming platform, again they are being paid by Stake or whatever casino it is to promote it to their platform and so obviously they will have to take that money.
769  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2024 NBA Season on: March 03, 2024, 11:19:27 PM
The Celtics are absolutely blowing GSW away. 82 points for Celtics in 1st half while the Warriors just managed 38. 82-38 half time score. Is there any chance for Warriors to make a comeback?  Would be an epic comeback, one for the ages, if it does happen. Highly unlikely though. Curry has only 4 points in the first half.

This is a tough lost for the Warriors, they have been in a comeback as of late and trying to position themselves in 6th-8th spot and trying to avoid the play-in. And as I check the score, Curry didn't even manage to score in double digits. I think this is the second time this season that he failed to do that.

And it's really hard to see which team can defeat the Celtics at this point. There seems to be no loophole in their game, Tatum and Brown, the best 1-2 player, and then Drew and KP playing like they need to proved something from their previous teams that trade them.
770  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: March 02, 2024, 08:05:12 AM
^^ Two fighters have been mentioned, earlier it was Charlo, but when Charlo get out of PBC, it's not Berlanga and Munguia. And I think it both of those fights, this May and September, Canelo will emerge victorious. Those two fighters are still very young and no experience or tools to beat Canelo at this point although we can say that Canelo is slowing down and cherry picking his opponents now.

Benavidez is moving up in weight at 175 lbs and will not wait for Canelo this year.

As for Dave Apolinario of the Philippines, he almost suffered a lost there when he was knock down. His lucky that his opponent doesn't have that much power to really knock him out for good or he has recuperating power from a knock down.
771  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2024 NBA Season on: March 02, 2024, 07:12:32 AM
Warriors again winning on the road and the typical way they win, in the 3rd quarter. It was very close match in the first half.

But as the start of the 3rd quarter, every one was contributing. Moody taking the advantage of his starting five to show his talent as Andrew Wiggins is not in the game again for personal reason. Bad to hear that Barnes hand is injured, you can see that he goes directly to the dugout of the team and never come back after that. So the Warriors still has the momentum in their last 10 games.
772  Economy / Speculation / Re: Dont sell because you feel like selling, give it another thought. on: March 01, 2024, 09:01:18 AM
Yes, I will say it again and again! Don't sell because you want to sell, or maybe others are selling, and if you feel you have made some profit, then you must sell. My dear, give it a second thought. If you don't have a genuine reason for selling, like a deep need for money, or if you want to sell to buy luxurious things when you know that the price of bitcoin has more potential than what it has shown,.

My rule of thumb is, sell if necessary, not just to make profits, but sell when you really need to. Maybe there something important that you need money and regardless of what the market is going to, you have to do it because of emergency.

I am not against anyone selling since; a lot of people who had hodl made lots of profit during this period. What I am trying to say is, if you have no significant need for the money, there is no point in selling it. If your income is enough for you and other expenses, you can continue to buy more bitcoin so that your portfolio will be massive. It should be about how much bitcoin you have, not how many dollars of bitcoin you are holding.

That's what I'm trying to say, two years ago, there was a emergency in our family. I don't have a choice back then, as I was slowly accumulating that time. But you have to make the judgement and decision, and so I did and I don't regret it by this time. I just continue to accumulate at my own phase even if we are in the bull run already, I keep on pushing and accumulating sats.
773  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Btc and people knowledge on: March 01, 2024, 08:48:36 AM
People say that they don't know what is the btc and there is no clear story for them to trust btc.
But the same people don't know what is the money and how it's created and they are collateral or some type of security body by themselfes.
For the first time I know what's bitcoin I did not believe what's bitcoin until I began to understand that bitcoin is not a scam and it can be trusted, sometimes we have to invest in bitcoin and remove our eye on it, specially when we are on long-term investment, because it's obvious that cryptocurrency is all about understanding, many people have to millionaires and billionaire through bitcoin immediately they remove fear in cryptocurrency in question, we have to know such, you can make money through bitcoin when you research of bitcoin and it's investment.
It's true that many people have to overcome their initial skepticism and fear to really understand the value of bitcoin and see its potential as an investment. And for those who do take the time to learn about it and invest, there is the potential to make a lot of money. But with that potential comes risk, and not everyone will be successful. And this is the exact reason why it's advised for people who are interested in Bitcoin to first learn about it and equip themselves with the required knowledge about Bitcoin to avoid making rational and ignorant mistakes that'll cost you your funds, mistakes that would've been easily avoided if only you took time to study about Bitcoin and the best investment technique to employ.

I don't know if you will not be successful in bitcoin investment. I mean if you do your homework, like a simply buy and hold, then most likely you will make a lot of profits. Of course, it will take a lot of time, because the best strategy is to buy during the bear market and then continue it and wait till the block halving, as it it the catalyst for a bull run and time when we are in the bull run and about to reach all time high.

So it's not that easy, it will take years to do it (investing on bear market, 2022-2023), and this year and the next year is the bull run. So that is a lot of time for the majority and perhaps for them they don't have the patience to stay that long and make a lot of sacrifices.
774  Other / Off-topic / Re: Keeping your gambling habit a secret. on: March 01, 2024, 05:11:13 AM
So gamblers should be more care with whatever they see online most ads are just created to over hype the casino. And after watching them one could feel he has seen an easy gambling casino to lots of win. The earlier you take gambling as a fun activity the better for you not to become addicted or disappointed with whatever you see around. It difficult to keep your gambling activity secret especially if you like using a casino gambling hall to place your bets.
We should always do things that will help us to stay safe while gambling to make money. The aim could be for money making but we should always observe when we are doing the wrong thing. Gambling can be very addictive and with some bad habit if we don't think we and do something that would help us to relinquish from such habit. We can easily get bad habit but it is very hard for us to get good habit because it can be pain for us trying to the right thing so we don't end up a miscreant. We have the responsibility to keep our gambling lifestyle from the public of it going to affect our image in a wrong way.

Gambling is wrong in the beginning, and even if we hide it, sooner or later we will make that one mistakes and we will exposed our secrets to anyone. So it could be very bad for you, or they will accept you as who you are, no question about it.

But there are personalities that needed to protect themselves from the public eye. For sure we all know who this people are. For ordinary gamblers, maybe we will be frown upon in work if our co-workers find out that we are into gambling. But perhaps there are also others who's into it. Personally, when I was working, there is no secret, on the other hand, me and my mates will gamble after office hours, specially Friday night or during pay-day.
775  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Jason Moloney vs Reymart Gaballo WBO Bantamweight Title (May 12) on: March 01, 2024, 04:18:32 AM
..it's like a stigma that Australia has been biased but I do not think that is the case anymore.

We should not focus on Australia itself but on the judges assigned to the fight. The selected judges in a big fight always came from different countries. It's not the country but the politics behind the fight that has the power to influence the judge's decision.

I'm sure that even if this fight between Gaballo and Moloney is held in the latter's home country, the possible manipulation is because of the politics and not on the country, Australia. I don't even see it as an advantage for Moloney that it will be held in his country. He is far from his prime and even in his prime, he didn't face fierce boxers in the bantamweight.

Moloney's advantage is experienced being a veteran in bantamweight. But that advantage won't be effective if his body won't able to keep to a much younger and quicker Reymart Gaballo who is much hungry to taste a big title and is currently a rising star.

But there could be influence on the judges itself from Australia or some entity within the country to make a bias judgement. I'm sure you have seen the Manny Pacquaio vs Jeff Horn fight and almost everyone here thinks that Manny won and that the judges favor Jeff Horn because the fight is made in Australia. So we should take notice of it specially if the fight lasted that 12 rounds and we really don't know who wins.

That's why it is advisable for Gaballo to really dominate this fight early on and not give Moloney the confidence to go full 12 rounds as it's very dangerous that Gaballo is going to lose on the scorecard of the judges.

Warriors are hot, they just beat the Knicks at MSG, Steph the high man with 31 points including 8 shots from the three point arc. It seems that it's a different Warrior now at the second half of the season. They are now complete with CP3 back in the game, although it was Wiggins who are out in this game.

Still in the 10th position in the Western Conference, but anything goes here. Lakers are also trying to break in the top 8 of the standings.

So it will be good competition down the stretch for the playoff and play-in in this conference.

This criminals are not going to stop and will always find a way to insert their malware to even a unsuspecting PyPi package. And even if it is open source, we shouldn't trust anything but we have to verify.

And just imagine if they can insert it to a more popular PyPi package, it could be disastrous as many will fall for it and losing their crypto to this online criminals.
778  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The Future of Gambling on: February 29, 2024, 09:23:10 AM
This brings us to the future of gambling and where it looks to be headed. With this new VR technnology from Apple and Meta and other competitors getting in the game it is only a matter of time until everyone offers the "Apple VR experience in retail and online" Or the Meta, take your pick. I just can't wait to see more of that evolution, and I already know its here I just don't know who does it because i'm not the gambler my grandfather was albeit I do like a good gamble here or there  Wink

It will be very interesting when we gamble with online access from anywhere but can play on a virtual horse racing track or at an online betting table with other players virtually with the help of technological advances in the future. everyone with technological advances today is talking about VR and its growth in the casino industry will of course be eagerly awaited and very interesting.

What do you mean? you yourself becoming a jockey? I'm not really sure about it as they will really go against the basic rule of horse racing. Sorry, but I'm not into it. But for games like baccarat or black jack, yeah why not, but for sure there will be gamblers who still go to play with human interaction.

But I do agree that there are pros and cons in every technology, and we really don't know how to react until we are there. Again, perhaps one bad effect is social isolation, or maybe it will give individual motion sickness. So it should be practice with care just like any thing. But in gambling, we've seen addicted gamblers like playing almost 12-24 hours, so if you are playing using VR it will definitely have a negative health effect.
779  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2024 NBA Season on: February 29, 2024, 08:39:01 AM
What a comeback by the Lakers to beat their rival in Clippers.

Yep! the battle of LA never seize to amaze me. I thought the game was done when the Clipps lead 21 pts in the 4th. Lucky, I didn't left closed the live streaming because I still had a little hope for a comeback as LeBron was hitting 3s early in the 4th and are heating up, that actually gave me a thought of a comeback if he'd lead his team and take over offensively, which eventually he did. Not only that, he was also guarding Kawhi effectively.
Impressive and a much needed win for the Lakers as they have like 5-6 games against top teams in the West and a couple in the East in their next 10 games. They must need to win 80-90% of these games, otherwise it would be harder for them to come back and try to sneak in the 8 seed.
The Kings sits on the 8th seed currently which is way ahead of the Lakers who needs to win at least 5-6 consecutively, considering the Kings may lose some of the games they have ahead.

The Lakers outscoring the Clippers by 23 points in the fourth quarter to complete a massive comeback was a sight to see. The battle of Los Angeles indeed did not disappoint. LeBron had a great night with 34 point but I think the difference in the game was that Paul George did not play with an injury. Otherwise this game might have gone the other way.

I think the Clippers have proved that they can win without Paul George though, so I wouldn't say that his absence is not the factor here. They even built a 21 point advantage and Lakers looking to lose this one already. But the Lakers specially Lebron doesn't want to lose this game, one of his best game so far. And he shows his basketball IQ here, and he goes where he wants, force a switch with Theis and then take advantage of the big guy to either shot or pass the ball to Rui.

And most likely it's the pride itself, of Lebron, taking matters in own hand, enjoying the one on one with Kawhi. It was a great play by the Clippers in the last 9 seconds, perfect execution it's that Kawhi missed his favorite mid jumper, probably has to do with Lebron's defense on him.
780  Economy / Speculation / Re: Are we in a crypto bubble? Is a possible correction coming soon? on: February 29, 2024, 05:46:20 AM
Isn't it Bitcoin market is always on a bubble specially if we are fast approaching the Halving?

So yeah, there has been speculation already that after the bubble has been burst, we might see a huge dip, 35%-40%. So that is a big dump if that happens in the market right now. Maybe others have taking profits already with it touches $62k, or perhaps still holding as what we preach.

Very difficult to say, but if a correction had to happen before the halving, it could be just around the corner. So no new ATH before the halving as others might have been looking for this cycle.
