822  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Most gamblers do not believe they can consistently make money, that's why... on: December 03, 2023, 04:25:51 PM
As you've read the thread title, I'll continue the explanation here, as it cannot accommodate additional text. I've come across numerous topics and posts where gamblers express disbelief in the idea of consistently making profit through gambling. It makes me question whether these individuals are truly involved in gambling or if they're posting without the real experiences and knowledge.
The problem with today's world is that many of us just want to see the success side of things and never want to know the failures that lead to the actual success!
If anything,people need to be told that behind every success story, there is failure that was the foundation and lead to a change of mindset that cracked the code to become successful.

And when it comes to gambling the problem that's there is emotions which lead to greed otherwise when all these obstacles are overcome, one can build a successful story.

Btw, not everyone that is making it in gambling is winning genuinely...some use prohibited strategies such as arbitrage which makes them consistent winners  Tongue

Personally, I firmly believe that there are people who have achieved real success in gambling. What perplexes me is why many discourage gambling as a means of making money.
Unfortunately it's a small number of people that have found success in gambling which is why many users wouldn't want anybody to go all in and take it iPad a career, this should be strictly for fun and games and monetary incentive as a byproduct.

In the world of investments, you don't need to be a user of a product or service for you to be called an investor as
supporting such could be because the product is viable for it to be sold on the market, though the best investments come from those that one can relate to by being a user and in this example be a gambler and have first hand experience of how the product works.

But what percentage of bitcoin investors are gamblers ? I think less than 40% give or take as the people that invest are low risk takers and gambling already is known to be high risk!

825  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The most important thing in a betting site on: December 02, 2023, 04:50:37 PM
Hey,

I wonder what other gamblers consider to be the most important aspect of a betting site.
Being more of sports gambling person, a fast and responsive platform is a must as I have seen some that take forever to accept and process a bet when it comes to live bets which is a deal breaker for me. Though reputation of the platform in the gambling world can easily be something to consider.

In my case, it's the speed of approving and processing withdrawals. Knowing that all withdrawals go smoothly, without delays or issues, makes me trust the betting site...
Not a bad feature indeed, but in this year and age taking forever to process payouts is unacceptable and doing so  could lead to chasing away current and potential customers towards your competitors !!!

The ban on mixers finally proved that the forum is centralized
Let's not mistake Bitcoin (BTC) for the forum(BCT) Tongue FYI BCT being centralized has been a known fact!

Btw BCT being centralized doesn't have a reason to have KYC as this is a platform to share ideas and talk about everything crypto, but should we have it...perhaps certain sections of the forum might have it where financial transactions, currency exchange etc happen but it could have a negative impact on the forum as many users
 could leave which is a reason I see it not coming here!
828  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin can save the USA and dollar on: December 02, 2023, 09:00:25 AM
Unfortunately it's not as easy as it sounds especially  for the fact that the USA don't have full control of Bitcoin , factor in volatility etc makes this an impossible task.. and if they print more dollars to buy bitcoin it kind of weakens the currency as forex is leaving the country...

To top it off a balance of trade needs to exist to strengthen the dollar and other factors have to compliment it such as employment rate has to go up, a good political atmosphere etcetera...

At this point the US needs good allies on its front as currently BRICS is also really squeezing them from accessing cheaper gas and needed commodities.

Rumors about Erik Ten Hag's replacement are getting louder and this time it is reported that Manchester United has a new option as his replacement and he is the current Juventus coach, Massimiliano Allegri.
To be honest, Erik Ten Hag's style of management isn't helping the team especially that the club has spent millions on players that it's failed to utilise and at the moment performance is in shambles, which suggests a waste of resources and pressure from fans will be building up to have the man sacked !!!

Btw an Italian coach at United, I don't know about this one...am doubting this move can materialize.

In fact, this change of Manchester United coach could happen if Erik Ten Hag fails to target Manchester United to be at the top of the standings
Are we really going to be dreaming about this top finish with the results we have been seeing  Roll Eyes & already these guys have underperformed in the champions league throwing away 2 important wins against Galatasaray which means they will be eliminated because we know United at the moment are an average team & no team is afraid of them when they face them...and who's to blame, the manager!!

But thinking about it, to build a team takes years and even if you buy the best players you will need team chemistry to be built and this takes time, perhaps Erik needs more time to get his act right.

Just thinking outside the box...

Considering the forum has a name to it for the person managing it in general, what would happen if this was transferred to a non US citizen to manage

the domain and all which would make it technically outside the jurisdiction of the US government, would this rescind this decision of mixers being banned?

$100 which is due will pay $110 next Sunday


15th December 2023: $115 (month extension from due day pay $135)
2023-12-20: $310 will need 50-day extension on this from due day and pay $370

it's a bitter pill 💊 to swallow and if the existence of the forum depends on this decision I guess we have been left with no choice but to take it .


That's sad.

But it seems a massive FUD is around us. Sinbad claims they are not seized. This is what they posted in their telegram.

Quote
Hello
I will post the official announcement about the latest news soon
The service is not seized and will be restored after maintenance is finished

I have a reason to believe this story. No law enforcement has time to design announcement while maintaining the company colors. For example, this is the banner Sinbad used for their November Bitcoin price prediction contest;
Good eye...
However history shows that whenever there is a seizure communication with the world/forum usually is halted almost immediately but with Sindad it was different..

TBH, It would be great to hear what is really going on from the horse's mouth considering they are still active and they wanted to give an update on this which might change the course of what's happening...

4) If blenders become illegal in the United States, mixers ads in signatures will be banned.

This way, you will avoid any illegal liability on the forum and people will seriously start to stop advertising mixing services.
Nice work around on this  Cool

The forum being a multinational platform, should everyone go with what works with the US or servers/domain are likely US registered hence this decision?
834  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Treat exchanges the way you treat your casino accounts. on: December 01, 2023, 10:23:07 AM
It should be common knowledge by now that we're not supposed to leave our coins in an exchange, sadly it's not.

Some people feel we should ditch centralized exchanges altogether. I buy into that idea even though I've not fully stopped using them.

I don't quarrel with using centralized exchanges, my quarrel is with leaving your coins in them.
This topic has been brought up one too many times and your argument is valid so is the rest of the crypto users that keep coins on an exchange!

The primary reason for not keeping coins on an exchange is merely control based on the famous slogan around the forum, "not your keys, not your coins" and it's a good way to avoid losing coins should an exchange be hacked, windup or hit you with some terms and conditions to confiscate your coins etcetera...but some users will argue to say keeping coins on an exchange has its perks like avoiding paying transaction fees for back and forth transactions to the exchange, it's convenient for those in peer2peer business as the business can run 24/7 and I think for those that want to hodl coins for a long time are the best users to keep coins away from the exchange to protect their investments.

Those of us who gamble might get this better.
When dealing with your online casino accounts, you usually just fund them with the amount you want to use in gambling. It's usually funded from your bet accounts or wallet. You don't leave your winnings in that account. You withdraw them to your bank account or crypto wallet.

The same logic should be applied to your exchange account. Fund it with just the amount you want to trade or exchange.
You are right, but for me, the reason for not leaving coins on a gambling account is based on risk management as greed can easily kick in when bankroll increases, so after making some profits I withdraw and leave what I need to use.

836  Economy / Games and rounds / Re: 🔥🔥🔥 BC.GAME - CASINO AND SPORTSBOOK | $1,000 GIVEAWAY LIVE! 🔥🔥🔥 on: December 01, 2023, 06:22:07 AM
I would suggest to let participants to post authentication in the thread (or any proof that they're the one who filled up the form), as anyone can fill up the form and use anyone's username (profile) to claim the $10.

BC.GAME says rewards will be sent via PM, meaning anybody registering using another person's username will lose out on the rewards...

And like you pointed out, threat of abuse exists as this is open to all as new accounts can be created just to try and claim rewards several times.

Users will receive a $10 claimable bonus code with no wager requirements in their Bitcointalk PMs once we've reached 100 eligible responses.
837  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Risking 1% in Gambling on: December 01, 2023, 06:12:05 AM
This 1% risk strategy is something I do when it comes to trading forex with a profit target of 5X which is 1:5, but the thing with gambling is that the risk factor is much lower as compared to trading and it doesn't make it any easy risking a percent of your capital as this would mean looking for high odds which increases your chances of losing using this approach!

Why not risk more say 10% and try to get a lower ROI by targetting lower odds, I know the idea is to protect our capital but imagine using a capital of $100, 1% is a big ask to grow an account though on a big account of $1k or $10k a percent risk can be considered good risk management.
838  Economy / Reputation / Re: Royse777 will not pay anyone for the last week /Sinbad campaign/ on: November 30, 2023, 08:17:48 PM
Hope this isn't some collateral damage aimed at hurting Royse777 reputation with what Haas happened with Sin, but with the communication given this isn't only done to protect Sig participants especially that this has been a long running campaign meaning identities could easily be uncovered from these KYC compliant exchanges as it's expected that some of these coins ended up there..and already exchanges such as Binance have an interest in any transactions that have interacted with that Sig escrow address.

Check screenshot shared by Binance affected user    




Tbh I think this is a bold decision taken by CM to seek best recourse as coins received could affect users legally in the real world, and to minimise the damage best to get legal advice from a cybersecurity lawyer or something before payments go out ...

Remember seeing something similar to this but on a different browser....
But this is quite good and very detailed walkthrough, but unfortunately I haven't used Mozilla Firefox in a long time on mobile but for this will certainly give it a shot for the sake of having  access to the Bpip plugin on all my devices Cool

Btw, for the fun of it will try to see if it's possible to run them on the more popular browser chrome Smiley
840  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What happen if Bitcoin shutdown? on: November 30, 2023, 04:43:18 PM
I am just wondering, what will happen if Bitcoin shutdown?
It's good to ask questions but fortunately for us Bitcoin operates as a decentralized system which means it has no centralised system of pulling the plug.

Will the market crash?
Imo crashes always happen in crypto and this is because BTC is vulnerable to speculation and news.

How about the effect of this to altcoins?
Altcoins usually follow bitcoins foot steps, so if BTC goes do expect them to go down and vice versa.

Can government shutdown Bitcoin?
It doesn't have the resources to pull this off.

I have a lot of question about this matter, because who knows, right? Also, how about hackers shutdown Bitcoin? What are your thought here? Let's discuss this.
Like I said earlier, bitcoin is going nowhere mate!! Just don't over think about the ifs because you need a positive mind to play the long game.
