Warriors have proven that they are the real deal.

The Bulls are a good but they are definitely still building in my opinion. Despite their record in the East, they will not be able to make the ECF with the current standard of play.

They need a third star alongside Lavine and Derozan who can take more 3 pointers. Vucevic being out doesn't help.
82  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The reason why Crash Games usually crash at lower values on: November 13, 2021, 10:23:44 AM
Very nice explanation, OP. People accuse of things being rigged far more often than reality.

I was just wondering if you could do something similar explaining the effects of bonuses that are associated with crash games (e.g. when you are the last person to cash out successfully you get a % of the pot?).

What are the implications for EV of that?
83  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Investors desire on meme coins are insane on: November 13, 2021, 12:36:35 AM
This is probably what many don't want to hear right now but I'm just trying to share what I've achieved so far since the last three months, I'm made more money from meme coins than every other bigger coins I have in my portfolio, not even BTC and ETH where able to give me that much insane profits in a short term, since I've been here on this forum I've never seen my portfolio surging high like this, meme coins are dangerous but their rewards are insane

Not a financial advice, what have your own experience been like with meme coins?

I think that the bull market with meme tokens is driven by a combination of greed and ignorance.

It's almost guaranteed that this will end badly for those who are trading these tokens, even on leverage. The risk appetite of people involved in this space is crazy - they either retire tomorrow or never.

Don't get caught up with this, folks. You can get much better risk adjusted returns by buying into blue chip coins.

Two issues that I want to clear up:

Quote
The only complaint I ever had was my RTP was simply much lower than I felt was right. So, about a month ago I had been on a four-month losing streak (around a million dollars in slots given back) and I had some questions for my host.

Do you understand how probability works?

So long as the games are provably fair you shouldn't have reason to suspect that a decade-long operation will try to rip you off, just because you had a bad losing streak.

Quote
At this point I could not chat, tip, transfer money, etc. The only thing I could do was withdraw money. I reached out to Eddie where just like the first time he was lessthann helpful. I came to the website and was told at the very beginning my privacy would always be respected. If I wanted a website to go through levels of verification I would have gone to other places. If this is what is expected, then I should have just been told that and I would have not signed up. I was specifically told my privacy would always be respected. I still have no clue what created these issues, but my thought is it all started when I asked for a new host. Is my host this insecure? Likely. Also, I didn’t mention but around the time of my asking for a new host I had also banned myself from slot play. Did this play a part? Likely as well. Either way I will not be back this website, and this will not be the last of my story.

I mean, you did sign up agreeing to their ToS which indicates that they can ask for KYC whenever they want?
85  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Gaming on blockchain is the future on: November 13, 2021, 12:11:56 AM
Blockchain gaming is the future, even in bear market I believe that games like axie infinity and others will continue to do well because many people are making a living off blockchain games as we speak, the adoption rate will never stop

Not really. It's way too overhyped at this stage and games like Axie probably won't see a lot of adoption after its rewards drop in value after the bear market comes about.

What makes you think that the adoption rate will never drop?

You have to realize that most cryptos ultimately fizzle out even though at the time it seems like a failsafe investment. That's just the reality of the industry.
86  Economy / Gambling / Re: Blackjack.fun | 0.28% House edge | Live tables | Baccarat |Slots| InstantWithraw on: November 12, 2021, 11:57:31 PM
Hey guys, coming back in to share more of my experiences as a new user/campaigner for Blackjack.fun. I think it's great to see a new product launch like this and we all got some stake in this so let's continue to make it better!

1. I played the daily wager contest and won yesterday, very happy for that, I think this is a really good feature to have.
2. I really really think we have to have auto betting as a feature for all table games. It's fine to click manually but autofeature is how you really can get casinos to grow fast as some people like me looooove betting millions of rolls every day. This means people can even automate betting while they work, or do other things.
3. Need to find a way to lower the minimums. Currently I noticed the games I tried have smallest min as 100 satoshi, which is 6.5 cents right now. This needs to be lowered to at least 10 satoshi (but I would argue 1 satoshi like most other good crypto casinos).

Loving the look of the site so far and thanks also sujon for the freespins award!

I agree with the minimum wager.

I don't think that it's much of an issue for them to instate this. Sites like PD have been allowing 1 satoshi wagers even when BTC was just $100-$200 apiece.

My suggestion to add on top of yours would be to add a few more proprietary games, especially Blackjack, and not rely as much on external providers.
87  Economy / Services / Re: [open] Restart of 1xBit signature campaign - new signatures and more spots! on: November 10, 2021, 07:33:38 PM
Hello guys,

it seems like some payments weren't sent on time, but now everything should be fixed. Check your wallets in a few minutes!

I still haven't received payment for the last week of the previous campaign (opposite to sovie). I was on the spreadsheet for Week 21.

Quote
Who will receive the payment?
Everyone who was in the spreadsheet on the previous week(21). New participants weren't accepted for a few weeks, so if you didn't leave the campaign yourself before the week 21 - you will get the payment.

89  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Comparison of Bitcoin and Ethereum on: October 15, 2021, 09:53:41 AM
Because Ethereum has better technology and smart contracts, I think the price may catch up with BTC in the future, what is your opinion Grin

No.

Bitcoin's intrinsic value comes from its scarcity and store of value properties.

Ethereum is designed to be used in DeFi, smart contracts, NFTs, etc.

You can't say that they are even in direct competition with one another. This is why the flippening narrative is never gonna pan out.
90  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Any hope for BitcoinCash? on: October 15, 2021, 09:22:56 AM
Do you think there is any hope for BitcoinCash?  Is it still one of the major alts that will pump?  Will it reach previous all time highs?

I don't think that there is any potential.

In terms of previous all time highs, no. Do you really think that an irrelevant coin like BCH will be able to go back to 0.2 BTC which is now >$10k and give it a valuation that will be close to ADA and even ETH?

The BCH gang has lost a lot of steam in the recent bull run in general. Not a good bet because its whole identity is based off of being a bitcoin alternative, and bitcoin is working just fine right now.
91  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Let's pay attention to BNB? on: October 15, 2021, 03:51:06 AM
While BNB was at $331 dollars on September 29, the upward trend of the last week is remarkable. I think that after BTC's correction, BNB will correct itself. BNB, which has risen to the level of $ 440, does not seem to be a surprise to reach the level of $ 500 by the end of the year.

I don't actually think that $500 is out of the ballpark at all.

The fact of the matter is that BNB is pretty important with its smart chain functionalities. And the important thing is that it actually does have a lot of utility in DeFi as well as on Binance's proprietary exchange, which is very rare for tokens.

I am bullish for sure. Heck, even $1k is possible if this macro bull run continues.
92  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: I'm sure altcoins will pump if we hold long on: October 15, 2021, 02:18:14 AM
Each holder will definitely have their own interests, but the true holder will definitely be stronger to plant crypto in a long time. So if we want to cuan, have to save coins for a long time. If you agree or disagree, please give me good feedback. thanks

This is a dangerous fallacy.

You're assuming that over the long run, cryptos will only go up. This is far from the truth.

I agree that holding good quality altcoins is going to give you much more profits than if you traded them short term. But this does NOT mean that you will be able to make money holding every single altcoin - look at Peercoin, LBRY credits, etc. who were all deemed to be good projects in the past and are now worthless.
93  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2021-10-10] Iran's power company warns of cuts due to illegal crypto mining on: October 15, 2021, 01:43:17 AM
This is just a band-aid solution.

But it does make sense for the government to blame the bitcoin miners because they do need scapegoats one way or another.

If they were serious about fixing the issue they would make the electricity grid more efficient so that everyone can get better coverage, instead of blaming bitcoin miners for what they have done.
94  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Book/Website Suggestions ? on: October 14, 2021, 08:01:50 PM
You can use this site to get some basic practice with card counting: https://www.blackjackapprenticeship.com/blackjack-training-drills/

But there is a reason why card counters nowadays spend more time trying to market their course or training program instead of actually card counting at casinos.

Physical casinos numbers are dwindling and increasingly you won't find good tables to play at for long periods of time for Blackjack. Online casinos don't have good deck penetration whatsoever. So you're not going to see returns on your time investment even if you have a big bankroll as an advantage player.
95  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2021-10-09] New York and Texas are winning the war to attract bitcoin miners on: October 14, 2021, 09:00:20 AM
This is exactly what will occur in the future, just on a grander scale.

While now governments are trying to ban and restrict access to bitcoin mining and exchanges, in the future they will be in a race to attract the best crypto companies, talents, and mining companies.

They get a lot of benefits including increased tax revenues and greater utilization of their electricity grid. Win win.
96  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin failed at $58,000 and dropped by more than $3K in a day. on: October 14, 2021, 08:37:35 AM
I saw Bitcoin drops 3k$ in a day and expert says that it is all because binance restricts access of Chinese users. more negative news in relation to China will drop the Bitcoin price down, but I think bitcoin will soon recover just like before, what was your opinion about this 3k$ dropped of btc price?.

And now we're retesting the $60k barrier.

I don't think that negative news out of China has any bearing on price anymore.

But I agree that price movements have been very volatile as of late - perhaps this is a signal that the bull run is near its end as people are a bit more cautious in their bullish sentiments.
97  Economy / Economics / Re: What do people think about CBDC? on: October 14, 2021, 06:54:39 AM
I think that they are the complete wrong use of blockchain technology.

What CBDCs mean is essentially more control for the government over your day to day spending activities.

They'll be able to track your spending on an immutable ledger, decide to freeze your money at any moment with a click of a button, and debase the currency supply in a heartbeat.
98  Economy / Gambling / Re: ✅ OddsBase.net - Historical bookmakers odds base on: October 14, 2021, 05:31:41 AM
Honestly I don't see anything wrong with this.

If they have data that they sourced from multiple sources, they can definitely afford to offer it for these prices.

Especially if there is a lot of demand, they can essentially resell the same set of data multiple times and that's how they sustain their business model. But honestly it's hard to mine any odds database for trends - a lot of the obvious +EV bets are already gone.
99  Economy / Gambling / Re: BitRoul.com the only Roulette with no Zero and a solid Provably Fair on: October 14, 2021, 05:08:06 AM
I would like to ask if having a multi account is possible in your website? I have an account before but I forgot the password and wanted to create a new account and I was just afraid that you will close my account for having multiple accounts on your website, or is it possible to close permanently my other account and have a new account?

   Hello John Nautica , Yes you can have as many accounts as you wants . Having an account does not necessitate to declare an email .

   I think certain players have more than 10 accounts .

   www.BitRoul.com

But each person would only be rewarded for one win for any giveaways?

How are you planning on deciding when it is appropriate for someone to only have one account? Is it arbitrary or explicitly listed for certain scenarios?

Perhaps have lower prizes in the future if you envision trouble with people using multiple accounts to claim it. Just my two cents.

Sorry for the delay in our return, but we got some GREAT news!!!  FINALLY we will be launching some markets on BitcoinTalks!!!  Shocked

Stay tuned!  Cool


Are there going to be bets offered on bitcointalk based events?

But yeah, welcome back.

I think that you're much better off staying consistent on the marketing front on bitcointalk instead of going on and off. You'll probably see better results and engagement overall, as your platform clearly has a lot of potential.
