The recently announced mixer ban on the forum is point of huge debate already. Are you trying to imply that privacy coins and mixer ban are linked? I would say so, although theymos here clearly mentioned Monero is not going to be affected.

The similar type of privacy-anonymity centric problem that mixers and privacy coins have curve-balled at governments is the root cause of such steps taken by centralized exchanges.

We are just customers here, just wait for another exchange to come up that supports XMR, DASH, ZEN for a few months and then move on to the next one.

You do need luck to make money. But thats gambling and it is not something I suggest everyone to do.

You should consider how you want to invest the money. I would suggest traditional fiat investments and crypto. Remember that you need to use your existing money to start this, you cant make money from thin air, bitcoin is not something like that.

Buy bitcoin at low and sell at high is what the basic long term strategy is. Bounties and airdrops will waste your time, rather be active on this forum and improve your rank and join signature campaigns in future side by side with buying bitcoin if you can afford it.

"Unhealthy" is when one forum members calls out other forum members about things that they dont like.

If you think the post is irrelevant, report it. Let moderators take action and move on from that. If you are still getting bugged by that user, put them on your Ignore list, report the manager about it and leave.

I do not appreciate people calling each other out like this, this is a place where people should be able to hang out like a coffee-shop adda, forget about campaigns and all. If you guys still have to mudsling, we got all sorts of social media for that, toxicity is nothing new, adding to it in unhealthy, trying to remove it makes it wholesome.

Dear Eva,
please know that there are users who will run around making bad comments without evidence and attempt to smear a project's image, this is a public forum after all. It does not mean that their words have any value or that people who have a proper insight are going to accept their views. This is not the first time I am seeing such and previous casinos who have faced such trolls have survived by ignoring them instead of trying to fight them.

Moderators are not going to get involved in this, its not their job. Please read what I have wrote below.

That user is not in the DefaultTrust (DT) network, which is the select few users of this forum that people unnaimouusly consider as Trustworthy, their ratings make a difference on any other account on the forum. Hence the feedback (it is still there) is visible in the "Untrusted Feedback" button on the trust page. Otherwise if they were on DT, their rating would be visible on "Trusted Feedback" - dont worry, such users who make baseless trust feedbacks are never included in DT list.

What you can do in case you feel harassed in future, is that make a thread in "Reputation" section of this forum, which is the place to discuss Reputation disagreements or squabbles, explaining your situation and why you feel the feedback in not justified. DefaultTrust (DT) members regularly visit this section and take proper action if needed.

BTW you guys already have 4 Positive trust ratings from DT members, which is enough to give you all a good reputation.

If you still have problems understanding how to proceed since English is not your first language, PM me like you did before, I will gladly help you out even though I am not in DT.

Just keep in mind that your team is not alone in this forum. ❤️ Please come back to revive your thread here. 

Sports does takes skills but that luck factor can wipe you out any time. It is the essence of gambling, you cannot guarantee your win even after honing your skills over years. The poker players are often quoted about this but they often have side businesses running which earn cumulatively more than poker itself. Hence whatever bankroll you end up keeping you will have to limit yourself or else you will bust it all.

There is no hard and fast rule regarding this but 10% is what I usually recommend.

It's not fun losing money but the gamblers are bound by their habits and addiction such that they use the humor to tide over the bad feeling of losing money. It's always desirable to win on every game but in casino that is not possible and is why the casino wins more than the players.

The games may derive the fun aspect but it quickly closes off once the losses come into view.

However some people find gambling an escape from boredom. That is the correct way to reduce boredom but it's also one of the reasons why they find losing money as fun.

Would not suggest these apps to anybody. I know this becomes like an alternative to sports betting and so on and since the government does not allow gambling openly, these predatory apps are trying to catch the demanding people.

Still, a lot of scams can happen and in general a risk these apps are. Tell them to avoid these, that is the maximum you can do from your side.

Being unsure about market movements is common but with a long term position it becomes clear. Like I can buy at 10k USD and I know that in the next year or so it will cross 20k USD. But things may not be so clear if you are going for the short term.

So analysis dont always work out, after all TA is a pseudo-science is is only an indicator to predict the outcome, the opposite is correct in 50% cases too. But buying low and selling high is not that difficult to comprehend. You would not be buying at 50k USD considering the correct price but you would want to buy at 40k or 50k USD.

Thanks to Jackclub team for organizing the BTC price prediction contests, I myself have won the second prize in the 3rd one which was run from Dec 19th to Dec 23rd.

However my observation was that the number of participants were low in this one compared to the previous ones that have been run in this forum. Possible the prize money was smaller and hence the issue. Still I believe we should participate in these regardless of the prize because its a free money game and we are only testing our own skills in prediction here.

Thanks again to the owners, have been fan of rollin.io when I first came to this forum. Hope the $1,000 giveaway brings in much more traffic to the site.

Professional poker players also have a lot of other sources of income. Many of them are doing stuff like:
-writing a book on gambling or poker
-doing affiliate marketing on their website for a casino
-giving out premium picks on membership channels
-building their own casino and running that

We should not narrow down their sources of income as poker or sports betting as said. There is the this "cushion" of income to back them up and all these are the non-gambling modes of earning.

The skills in trading are indeed simple, but applying them is what is difficult.

Often you are watching the market and panic strikes and pulls away the logic from your brain. When the market is dropping it is not the time to sell and join the FUD gang but the time to buy at the lower price.

It is never a get-rich-quick scheme and even day trading carries a lot of risk but is not comparable. Although I mostly speak for long term trading, it will never make one rich overnight. It takes time to be resistant to emotions here.

Its the competitiveness of any game that enhances its addictive capability.

Currently sites run these leader-boards, races and so on to promote this competition. So the more time your spend on gambling the more exposed you are to gambling itself and the addictive nature of these sites.

Self-discipline works a lot in reducing this, but the best method is to stop gambling completely. It might sound too difficult but it needs to be put in for those who seem to losing control to their habits.

I saw your thread on the FUN token experiment, but I think I will pass on buying a truckload of FUN token just to boost my interest earnings after a year. I am currently invested in the base interest rate and will continue to keep that in hiberation without touching any of the coins, maybe doing some freerolls from time to time hoping to replicate that 10000 number roll.

In my opinion instead of running after the 200$ roll, just keep 1BTC in your account and it will earn enough interest after a month to cover that 200$.

It is the new buzzword, so anything that happens now is not an indicator of what this will do in the next 10years. It is possible that with AI many things might change but we should not forget that AI is only getting buzzed now, it was existing and running on different apps and services for a long time.

In crypto scammers are mostly using AI to forge images and writings that seem legitimate and appear nice looking in front of a gullible victim. It is sad that people always use advances in Science to their own greed but it is what we have to be careful about.

My opinion is to let the dust settle about this gold rush. Things will gain clarity further ahead.

And yet you can afford to use a smart device and have internet connectivity to post on this forum?

You can answer this yourself if you read the charts of bitcoin back in 2009 to modern day 2023 and see how much the price has risen in the last 14 years. If the early adopters would have chickened out back then they would not be so well revered as of today.

Dont forget that you dont need to buy a entire 1BTC to invest. It is divisible upto 8decimal places and fractional buying is what people most commonly do.

A budget in gambling is like an ideal thing - it does not exist when it comes to problem gamblers. Pro poker players might be doing that but your amateur slots lover does not take budget into account, they just burn their money as and when they can. The more they see the reels roll the more they will feed notes into the slit.

Breaks in gambling are common among all - but that is only to tide over the times when they are broke and out of money to play anything. Once the get money in hands they are off to gambling again.

Hence to be responsible, you need discipline and a change of habits.

Well, firstly you have not posted in the proper format for scam accusation.

Secondly, you forget that one roll does not influence the next roll. Each one is unique and if the method to verify the rolls shows that it is verified then the rolls are not rigged and the provably fair system is working.

It does not "depend" upon the statistics, it is less likely to keep rolling <50 after so many rolls but it is possible.

The method to raise your interest from 4.08% is by investing in the FUN tokens? I am currently running my coins on the base interest of 4.08% and any boosted amount is always welcome. I thought the FUN token investment was a separate scheme altogether, meaning that two investment schemes were running on the site side by side - correct my if I was mistaken.

It might sound paranoid but these things are helping propel scams and induce more mental health problems in the society - something that we will witness in the upcoming years. You cannot trust anything on the internet anymore and be skeptical about everything that is too good to be true.

It is a method to grab those who have a pestering mindset of why they are not able to make money in a sideways market. Remember when the bitcoin market was being stagnant and we have this boom of margin and leverage trading? Its similar because the lack of up or down movement means a lack of exchanges getting paid trading fees so they introduce margin and leverage and start promoting it on media.

The hype around netflix has been with these type of series for the last 3-4years. I am old skool and steer clear of these things.

I watched The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes - its a prequel to The Hunger Games series. It was nice considering I have seen the movies but never read the books, yet. But not something I would watch twice. Would give it 6/10 from my side.
