862  Economy / Economics / Re: @Deloitte: "The fiat currency will be gone in 5 to 10 years". on: September 13, 2021, 08:01:33 PM
Fiat won't be gone in 5 or 10 years, there are a lot of countries that massively use cash and also there are a lot of small cities in "these" countries that use only cash and you'll never find POS terminals.
If fiat currency is gone in 5-10 years, this mean that every bank should have internet and mobile banking + it's customers should have fully adopted those technologies. At the same time consider that it's the UI/UX designers job to create user interfaces that will be friendly and easy to use, that's where the Google mentioned that they are working and doing researches for the next billion users that they are waiting for to become part of the digital world. If we add the next billion users and fiat will be gone, then the ui/ux system should adapt the demand of both, the current and the upcoming users.

Btw this process can't be done in such a short time frame, don't think only from your personal experience and from the city where you live. There are countries where people search for jobs and apartments offline, in real life instead of websites because they just don't know. There are people who don't know how to install any app on windows too and there are people who can't do more than call / take photo on their smartphone. I wouldn't be in rush in this case about the adoption time.

The promotions section has received two points from me, not zero. I am not interested in what happened in the past Smiley I have made my deposit, played there, and operating with the current facts. The chest rewards are bad because they are being credited with different coins. You cannot exchange them or withdraw if the amount is low.
I think the fact that Baryom give aways some bitcoins to top players, VIP program, XP Contests, BTSLR Challange, Drops & Wins, Hourly Lottery, Billion Bets Event, bitsler forum promos/contests are just great and doesn't deserve 2. I haven't seen so many promotions with such a high rewards on many websites.

KYC and anonymity
Bitsler is really one of the great casino that doesn't ask for KYC documents unless there is very, very bad situation. And you can stay pretty anonymous with them but maybe because of email, 4/5 in anonimity is still okay.
They require you to enter all the personal details to have access to the slot games. I would not call that approach 'pretty anonymous'.
[/quote]
Apologize, yeah, you are right in this case. I didn't really know if Bitsler was asking for personal information in order to play slots, I couldn't even imagine that. I contacted their support and the answer was that they ask it because of providers regulations. I asked them that Sportsbet.io Fortunejack and other websites don't ask for any... But.. the answer was - We can't really get over our license's rules and provider's regulation.
864  Economy / Gambling / Re: FreeBitco.in-$200 FreeBTC⭐Win Lambo🔥0.2BTC DailyJackpot🏆$32,500 Wager Contest on: September 09, 2021, 08:43:50 PM

2 tickets winning is really a mythical event, but maybe tickets are so splitted among different users' hands that it becomes common to happen winnings for two or three digits tickets holders. I say that because the site has 47 million of users, that is more than the population of some small european countries, and every user can acquire few tickets for free just by claiming the faucet reward or by referring some people to the site.
We see right now 147,160,000 tickets for the next draw, but we don't know how many people are holding those tickets. Maybe there are million of people already holding few of them. As there are many of them, it becomes common these small holders are selected as winners.

Thats what they say that they have 47 million users. We dont know how many of them are active. You cant see the games or browse the gambling area without creating an account. I have also created an account just to see the gambling details but I am not an active one.
147 million tickets for next draw means that each of 47 million user has around 3 million tickets. Is this insane or fine?
Most of them aren't active users and also keep in mind that highest percentage of people have more than one account. I estimate that only 1/3 or 1/4 is the active user from that number or probably even lower. Keep in mind that mostly people were using freebitco as a faucet back in old years and probably these people have grown and already abandoned/forgot that website.
Also, we have to keep in mind that their alexa rank is 1,429. I just saw and when Cointelegraph had alexa rank 1100, they had monthly 10+ million views. That at some point can give us an idea about freebitco's traffic.
865  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Here We Go 200 Bitcoin ATMs in El Salvador on: September 09, 2021, 07:58:24 PM
I have read that President Bukele pointed out that the Chivo wallet and ATMs will not generate payment of fees or commissions for the transactions that users carry out in the same way to the businesses that use these instruments such as the Chivo Wallet, ATM and points of sale.
The government is doing well, they are investing in their infrastructure to make it easier for residents to use bitcoin in their economy.
IMO, the ROI through remittances when using this new system will be covering the expenses.

https://www.criptonoticias.com/comunidad/adopcion/bukele-revela-como-funcionara-chivo-wallet-salvadorena-bitcoin/amp/
That's great, that's really great because bitcoin ATMs had so huge fees that it didn't even worth to ever withdraw from them. The most of the ATMs that I know had at least 20% fee of transaction. If you give away 1/5 if your money to 3rd party service for money withdraw, then you'll go bankrupt soon.

Well, how will these take profit then if they won't be taking any commissions? Are they like a state owned so they can be subsidized by taxes? Or there's some sort of transaction fees in there?
Maybe it's their strategy to offer service without fees for a while to increase adoption and make service comfortable for everyone for a while. It's typical business model, I remember how I was getting food with 50% discount and with free delivery for 2 months when the Bolt Food started operating.
I think they'll set fees in a year.

This statement is absolitely true, news, whether good or bad, acts like a promotion for cryptocurrencies but there is one thing that people forget. Not only positive news in a row gives you a great advantage to sell higher in future but you can do exactly the same even on bad news. Let's have a look at both cases:
1. Imagine, there are positive and positives news frequently and the cryptocurrency that you bought at past is rising and rising. But then somehow happens the second case - 2. One terrible news is posted. What do you do at the moment? Sell right away or wait for weeks/months/years and sell then? This is the situation where you forget one thing - you can profit even in bad cases. Just sell right away when you hear terrible news that can destroy the bitcoin's price and immediately open the short position in futures trading.
It's as easy as ABC.

The logic behind patience in gambling is that if you end up gambling all of your money all at once then there is a good chance that you will end up losing it all very quickly as well. What you need to do however is simply just focus on gambling a small amount for a very long time, that way instead of losing it all at once, you will lose it a lot less quicker, having a bit of wins at the same time.

For example, if I gamble on a slot today and put 1000 dollar in there, then I have a chance to lose it all in the first bet ever, whereas if I put 1$ in there, that would be 1000 bets minimum, and we all know you will have some wins along the way so there will be at least 2000 bets and maybe even as much as 5k-10k bets with that logic as well, and you could earn while you are gambling and get lucky and have like some 800x situation going as well. It gives you a better shot at it.
See, $1000 is equal of $1 for some people, that's the difference. There are some people who spend nothing at all for fun because they just can't afford, there are some people who spend $100-200 a month for fun and there are some people who spend thousands a month for personal fun. There is a same difference in gambling, there are people who leave million in one night in casinos and there are people who badly cry when they lose $5 in casinos.

But you are right, if an average person wants to have fun, then a one-time $1000 bet is a VA bank, it's far from fun when the result is either win or lose.
I think everyone has to acknowledge that the money they have dedicated for gambling mustn't be more than they are willing to lose and try their best to do low bets and just get the fun from gambling. If they are lucky, their low bets will still give them some profit and the positive thing is that they won't go bankrupt in a seconds.
868  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Signature campaigns and some discussion about seo on: September 09, 2021, 12:29:43 PM
Here is a snap of Domain details of Bitcointalk.org


As per snap, Bitcointalk.org domain has very Higher Domain authority, Pageranks, Total Backlinks, Quality Backlinks, Alexa, and many more factors with higher grades. All these numbers are useful for SEO.

Getting do-follow links from the forum will definitely increase the SERP of the linked domain.

Nowadays there are many tactics used to get better SERP, but due to time to time updates by Search engines, it is very tough for individuals to meets all required requirements.

As I am with forum since 2015, I have used website title with URL in my profile which is boosting my SERP on major SE's.

yes, these are the details for the links found in the posts or in the forum profile.
but it is interesting that no one did the analysis of links in signature. Especially not when the signature campaign is ended and participants remove the signature with links. I guess it's treated like dead links, isn't it?
I have already done very small test. It's nothing significant but still better then nothing. Well, I posted my website in my signature and in two days I got 2 point in Ahrefs check. Some pages were almost instantly indexed. As I understood, there are some threads in bitcointalk that have it's own high PR because those threads have backlinks from other websites. One such thread was coming from one bitcoin mixer where I had posted on first page. But the problem to my mind is that if the website is brand new and has no links, then doing signature campaign on bitcointalk will bring you massive dofollow links and it looks spammy for google. You need a good ratio of do follow and no follow backlinks.
869  Economy / Economics / Re: Have you notice how corporations took over the internet ? on: September 09, 2021, 11:57:46 AM
Everything is nice and beautiful when only small number of people know and have access on. Internet was nice when it wasn't that widespread, I remember the days when I was playing CS and we had a call in Skype at the same time. I remember the times when the internet comunities were really the great. There was less spam and more real, educated people.
Btw things are developing and it has it's pros and cons. For example, wars rapidly develop nations, just see how many amazing and useful meds were created during the ww1-2.
The difference at the moment compared to past is that everything turned into a commercial thing, there is a huge competition in everything and these tech giants like Google, Microsoft, Apple and others are the governors of the digital world. The freedom is lessening.
870  Economy / Economics / Re: Ukraine is the "island of crypto freedom" in Europe, what to expect ? on: September 08, 2021, 03:50:56 PM
Ukraine only? What about Georgia? This country is great option in this case also because cryptocurrencies aren't taxed here in a regular ways (people who mine don't have to pay tax, also, people who receive cryptocurrencies and withdraw it, don't have to pay any tax when income isn't from own business).
Also, they created free industrial zone exclusively for BitFury (until that, there was no free industrial zone). Electricity is cheap and it gets especially cheap when you get them in free industrial zone.
Also (again), the government cooperated with Bitfury to help on developing and adopting of blockchain technologies (one successful project is land title registry).
871  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Dice 101 on: September 08, 2021, 02:59:47 PM
Cmon guys, what gambling instructor? What do you mean? Dice is a very, very simple and easiest game, you don't need an instructor here, it's not a chess/poker.
Also to OP, there is none strategy that will help you to wager as much as possible and minimize the risk. Even if you choose 98% win rate, that 2% loss chance shines very often. The strategies that work well and I have seen was on bustabit like games where the gamblers were betting with low amount of coins but were aiming for super high profits. This is the best thing if you have high capital and think about long-term.

If we were a scam, why would we refund anything at all when an account is already closed?
Overall, this proposal attracted my attention. If you were a scam... Hm... If you aren't a scam, then why do you have negative feedback from a lot of DT members on this forums? And these negative feedbacks come with proofs, valid proofs. If you weren't scam, then why do you always have to say that proposal "we aren't scammers" over and over again? Why people have truth issues with you? Seems there is problem in you and it's pretty clear. We don't know what's your aim, usually you can't make an angel from evil (but the opposite can happen).
873  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Is the security of exchanges and wallets sufficient? on: September 08, 2021, 08:53:31 AM
It's true that 'not your key, not your coin', and that there are several wallets and services available to cover yourself.

There may be a point at which any cryptocurrency (whether Bitcoin or another) is held on exchanges/wallets run by small/new companies.

The small players have limited resources. How do they ensure they are sufficiently protected? Why don't there be hacks every other day?
Depends on the person. There are some people who lost access on their coins multiple times despite the fact that they had control on their keys and for these type of people, exchanges are really better options.

Overall, refund in case of hacks, depends on the exchange. I guess as  serious exchanges as Binance and Coinbase are, will refund you in case something happens and as I have heard, Binance was also refunding money to those who were liquidated because of Binance's error (those who set stop loss order and it wasn't activated). I remember cointelegraph was writing something like that.
874  Economy / Gambling / Re: FreeBitco.in-$200 FreeBTC⭐Win Lambo🔥0.2BTC DailyJackpot🏆$32,500 Wager Contest on: September 08, 2021, 08:31:53 AM
Bitcoin successfully pierced the key level of $51,000 on Sunday.

Further upside depends on BTC solidifying the level as support in coming sessions.

Will September be a month of massive gains for Bitcoin? Will the psychological resistance of $52,000 and $51,000 push BTC further downwards?

Predict Bitcoin Price movement for the month of September and win BTC! Betting expires on 23rd September.

Notable Odds: 4.90 on $50,001 - $52,500, 5.74 on $52,501 - $55,000, 11.32 on $55,001 - $57,500.
Hopefully, September will be a month of massive gains for bitcoin as the price now stays at $51k so there is a chance for bitcoin to increase. The next target is to break $52k, which is almost getting closer to that price but unfortunately, the price makes a little correction and going down for a while. If the price can break the barrier of $52k, it could still increase and reach $55k-$60 will be possible before the end of this year.

Its easy to give analysis on bitcoin price prediction but since no one is sure what will happen, its difficult to bet on it. We may place a bet that bitcoin will reach 60,000$ by month end but who knows if it dumps to 45,000$ again. This market is very unpredictable and hence you won't be able to bet right most of the times.
Omg, you were so true two days ago when you were saying that it would may dump to 45 000 USD again. It sounds hilarious but the next day we really got that price and even today the price stands nearby to 45K.
It's really exciting how the odds can change each day and overall, how the situation can change in a minutes. In 15 minutes, it fell from 49,8K to 47,5K (4.70%) and in the next 15 minutes, it fell from 48K to 43K (10.53%).

I hope that FUN token will perform well. In last three days, it felt by 26%. Hope it will regain soon and continue bullish and the negative effect of bitcoin will lessen.

Not everyone likes to spend time in jail. Some people would say, give me millions and spend me in jail for ten years but some people just simply can spend a week in jail, it would make them insane and it also depends where the person has to be in.
Maybe all he needed was to become popular for a second and that's all. Otherwise, if he is a white hat, we would just reveal the bug. And if he is good at anonimity, he would keep the gains (millions) in his pocket. Seems he was able to hack but unable to hide his identity.
876  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Setting up a gambling business on: September 07, 2021, 08:20:05 PM
Am beginning to pick interest in gambling but I don't have any computer code knowledge but will love to operate a gambling site and will like to get some advice from the members of this forum, I have the capital to run the business until it starts making profits.
I don't have finances and don't have experience in football management but still want to own as amazing clubs as FC Barcelona, Real Madrid, PSG, etc.

Okay, well. First of all, have realistic dreams. To fund a casino, you don't need to know coding but you need to have capital and good connections for that. As you mentioned, you have capital. Then, you could hire HRs, developers, lawyers, register business in offshores, etc.

If you want to get all in one business, then seems the shady company (1xbet, 1xbit) offers betb2b platform where you get the whole ready things.

Check out my honest Bitsler review published today. This casino has received a 3.6 out of 5 rating from me.
I want to thank you for really putting a lot of effort to provide very detailed review, thanks again!

Withdrawal
At past, you had three options of withdraw:
1. Low - 0.0002 btc
2. Medium - 0.0004 btc
3. High - 0.0006 btc

On high priority, the withdraw and confirmation was almost instant. Seems, now they left only two option and I agree with you, today these fees are very high. I would love if they offer us lowered withdraw fees and more advanced withdraw options where users will be able to set custom satoshi/bytes fee.

Promotions
Their promotions are really amazing, I can't really understand why you think it deserves 0 out of 5. They have a lot of promotions, chest rewards where you can get good reward if you are lucky. Also, I can say that at past Baryom was paying himself 1 bitcoin and sometimes more to top players, yeah, he was giving them 1 bitcoin for free as an appreciation for being a loyal customer.

KYC and anonymity
Bitsler is really one of the great casino that doesn't ask for KYC documents unless there is very, very bad situation. And you can stay pretty anonymous with them but maybe because of email, 4/5 in anonimity is still okay.

Still, I think Bitsler really deserves 5/5.
878  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Uk most deprived areas have the Highest number of gambling outlets. on: September 07, 2021, 06:53:28 PM
According to the source :
https://www.theguardian.com/society/2021/aug/23/uks-most-deprived-areas-have-highest-number-of-gambling-outlets-report

The most deprived areas of UK are actually having more number of gambling outlets, which is a matter of concern for sure.

Apparently according to the source people are targeting the most deprived and economically weak areas which is sad. The companies are trying to scam people away and this is not working well for the people around since they might get addicted for sure.

How should they go about controlling these things? Should the government try and make laws to ban such behavior and such state? I think people should have a minimum wage for sure when it comes to gambling, what do you think ?
I remember recently there was a thread around that subject.
They build most gambling outlets in poor areas because in poor areas, higher percentage of people are uneducated / unemployed and this directly indicates that they are more likely to gamble and it's true in reality.
In some countries, basically you can't take a loan if you are unemployeed and if you are employeed, the monthly payment shouldn't be more than 20-30% of your monthly salary.
If the same thing will be implemented on gambling - Accounts locked for unemployeed and employeed will be able to spend max 10-20% of salary, it will show some positive sign but after all, in the era of information technologies and a lot of possibilities, these kind of regulations won't have any significant effect.
879  Economy / Economics / Re: Recent advertisement for Visa - what a joke on: September 07, 2021, 02:10:23 PM
Why is it a joke? I don't understand why VISA deserved so much hate there.
It's just a marketing video and company tries to bring the positive sides of the visa and make it look unique, positive, bright for people. The message of this video is that VISA connect people with each-other all over the world. It helps businesses to sell from place A to place B online.

What did they say wrong? Visa really helps you to pay with it's card in supermarkets, in online marketplaces, to send money to your friend. If you say that they track our transactions and use that for marketing purposes, then you are right and I guess everyone knows that but people still use it because some of them don't care about privacy and just enjoy the benefits they get from it.
880  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If bitcoin go high the poor will not participate on: September 06, 2021, 08:48:55 PM
I am thinking that if the bitcoin continue to go up to $100,000 and above.  it will be expensive for the poor people to invest. It will be for only rich people. It will be better for bitcoin will not go so much high so that it will be affordable to everybody to invest and have profit.

I will like to read and learn for everyone here.
Why will it be for only rich people in near future? Does it matters how much bitcoin can you buy? As long as 1 satoshi doesn't worth thousands of USD, then bitcoin is affordable for everyone. It's not necessary to buy exactly 1 Bitcoin or higher in number but you can start buying from 1 satoshi that is 0.00000001 BTC, worths 0.00052 USD.

Also, just want to note that bitcoin is very volatile and iy's possible everyday to make more than 2-3% profit of capital, this profit especially doubles, triples and even grows when you use leverage.
Just don't forget, you can bet on price drop too Smiley
