This is quite obvious, of course, it will still be BITCOIN, the mother of all cryptocurrencies. As of now, I am believing in SLP/AXS, because of the game Axie Infinity. This is a great game that you can earn cryptocurrency while playing. There are also a lot of blockchain games nowadays that we can choose from. You can check the playtoearn.net/blockchaingames. It is never too late to start because there is a lot to choose from.

It needs to take years before building a reputation and break it in a second, not just only applied in gambling but it applies to most in our lives. Even here in the campaign, we need to build their trust for a long time but we can break it in just a second.

If a gambling site wants to stay the trust of its clients (gamblers), then they need to help it out once their gambler is having a problem with their site or any transaction involved in their site.

There is a lot of online casinos nowadays, the most important thing you must know is if that the casino must be trusted and have good security so that your earning will not just fly away because there are a lot of scammers out there and sometimes they are good at pretending and make you believe that you will win in their online casinos, so be careful. Also, about the security instances, there are those casinos that needed your information for you to withdraw a high amount if ever you win a huge. Be careful and understand what you put in it and make sure that they are not asking for your private key.

If you know a technique about buying and selling a coin on how to gain profit then use it. I have a cousin that is also good at predicting but not all are accurate, he is just giving some possibilities and a lot of potential coins he invested in. Most of his coins have now a value, he also joins some airdrops even though there is no assurance in it, because it is just a free registration but he is also making sure if it is a scam or not, so be careful joining those.

The technique on joining in airdrops is to join 1 airdrop in a day, let say you join in a year, so you already join in 365 airdrops, if 10% of it has made value then that is just a bonus for you

Quote
In a bid to raise cash for the financial year amid the struggles caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, Treasury Cabinet Secretary Ukur Yattani has reintroduced the tax, which was removed by President Uhuru Kenyatta in July last year.
I understand that people can become emotional everytime they see tax hikes or new taxes to be implemented but can we have the numbers before and after the tax  was removed?

The proposal would tax the gamblers and not the casino or bookie. These companies thinks it would affected indirectly since one of the aim of the law is to discourage players but does that really stop them from gambling?
I guess this is only their way to lessen the gamblers online, so, the proposal would tax gamblers and not the casinos. They think that it will affect gamblers and maybe it can also be effective in others. For me, it will lessen the gamblers playing because of it, even I will think if it is still worth to play gambling with a high taxes.
886  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Fully vaccinated individuals now spared of masks in the casinos in Vegas on: June 26, 2021, 04:53:25 PM
The people who are vaccinated should not think that covid-19 cannot harm them. They can still get infected from covid-19 but there are chances that they will recover because they have antibodies in this body. The mask should be wear by both vaccinated and those who are not vaccinated. Its for our own safety.
It is unlikely that those that are vaccinated are going to keep wearing the mask after all many are taking the vaccine precisely because they want to return to their normal lives and be over with this nightmare, and taking into account that many countries are allowing those that are vaccinated to stop wearing the masks then this tendency is going to continue, and yes while they can still get sick with this virus the vaccine is there to lessen the intensity of the disease so people do not suffer grave symptoms.

We can't return to the normal lives until either the covid-19 is completely eliminated from the world or all of the world population is vaccinated. Both of these conditions seems impossible for now.
Therefore whether you are vaccinated or not, you should keep on wearing the masks all the time when you are outside and in public.
I don't want to get vaccinated because some people are dying because of vaccine, NOT ALL but SOME of those who already get vaccinated are dying, some others are getting sick and becoming a covid positive after the vaccine. We can't deny that the vaccine has a side effects in some people and I don't want that I am the one who affects that side effect once vaccinated so better to just stay at home, sit back and relax, play gambling online. 😄 better to stay away tho casinos as of now than to suffer yourself in those vaccines out there.
887  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Prayer and gambling. on: June 24, 2021, 01:49:49 PM
Exactly, you win not because God answered your prayer but because you're lucky. We should not connect the outcome of the game to what we prayed for, certainly its a coincidence if ever we win or its really meant to happen. Stop relying to what we dont see if we gamble, our knowledge, skills snd luck are the key to maximize our chance to win and hit the jackpot.
It's not luck that made you win, it's mathematics and probability that made you win in gambling, we just consider it lucky because we can't fathom the numbers and it's too small to consider although you are right that it's not God that made you win.
Both answer is right. People will just see that is because of luck so they consider that it is the luck that help them win the games. Besides that, many things that help them but they do not realize so people will hope that their luck will come to them when they gamble. But prayer before gambling will not be a problem and some people will still doing that even if the result is lose.
Prayer is not the answer of winning. Even in every game what you play in life, but prayer is everything but we cannot use it in gambling. You can still do it but we cannot use that as our security to win. If people doesn't want to lose more than what they can afford then simply play with the amount that they can afford to lose and don't expect that your prayer will help you in your every games. Being lucky is also a good time for us to win although kittygalore is right that the mathematics and probability can also be the one who made us win, maybe you should have them both, luck and probability to make us win.
888  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Economic Costs of Gambling on: June 23, 2021, 02:47:57 PM
Hi,

in this thread I would like to address a very important topic: Economic Costs of gambling.

From economic theory we know the concept of externalities:

Quote
In economics, an externality is a cost or benefit that is imposed on a third party who did not agree to incur that cost or benefit. For the purpose of these statements, overall cost and benefit to society is defined as the sum of the imputed monetary value of benefits and costs to all parties involved.
Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Externality



1. Gambling in fact has many negative externalities. If someone gets addicted, the likelihood is much higher to be depressed. Depression is factor, which leads to high costs for the society.

2. Gambling addiction leads to economic costs because of crime actions. Other market actors have to increase their security standards, which means higher costs.

3. Many gambling addicts go as a consequence to jail. Jail means EXTREMELY high costs to society.

What are your thoughts on this topic?
This can possibly happen but gambling is not a place for addicts people, it can lead them "just like what you have said", 1) depression 2) crime, and 3) go to jail. We, at our own seek, should avoid already those possibilities for us to not get depressed. All gamblers should also be responsible with their responsibilities. I hope you already know what I meant.
889  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Betting Experiment #2: Chasing the Draw on: June 22, 2021, 02:30:21 PM
It is interesting, maybe some bettors who also uses this kind of experiment will share their testimonies so we can also compile if this is effective in winning to gambling. I've played with no rules and just play what I think is right, no formulation or what and the result is surely lost. LOL. I lose maybe 2 times last week online. Maybe I should also try my luck next time and maybe try some formulation or experiment that is slightly the same as what have you done. Maybe it is also better to share and edit your post of the result of your game using your experiment so we can share this with others.
890  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Manny Pacquiao vs Errol Spence Jr - August 21 on: June 22, 2021, 08:40:07 AM
I am just wishing that Pacquiao will have the same rigid training before the fight. Because it is a matter of preparation on how he will perform inside the ring.
He's always on the go and never stops in training. Whenever he's going to have his match, he's ready for it and won't settle for easy training. If it's about the preparation, he's always prepared and doesn't settle for the low standards that he knows whenever there's an important match up long before the fight day.

It has been like a couple of years from his last fight. So those 2 years, will be a big factor when it comes to his readiness. But for sure, he always wants to give a toe-to-toe fight, which is more worth to watch than these exhibition fights.
Even he doesn't have a fight for two long years, he never stopped in maintaining his physique and it's already part of his life and routine to have training but it's totally different if there's a match. Most that he can be into it and he's not underestimating his opponent for real but only in words.
I am sure that his rest for 2 years long has a purpose because he said he wants to recover. I am not sure if where he wants to get recover on something, but for sure there's a purpose, hopefully, he doesn't just say that for the confidence of the people who's supporting him and waited for him for so long. This is such a big fight and for sure he knows it.
891  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Auto Deduct System on: June 22, 2021, 04:13:40 AM
What do you think of an AutoDeduct System of a Gambling Platform? Says you just connect your wallet like for example on a Dice Game, then it will just roll itself everytime it sees some funds on your wallet whatever coins it was until you are left with Zero ( Funds withdrawn or Funds gets Zero?)

I just have think of this as LOTTO ( site : lotto.finance) is implementing this, and one way to get out of that is to either wrapped the tokens or bridge it on another chain, do you think it's reasonable not to have a stop button to exclude your address once you don't want it anymore?
I don't think that it is fine without the permission of the owner of the wallet. It is our right if we want to auto deduct our fund and plays it or we want to play it manually. It is now implementing, and others are fine with it, maybe they only have the amount that they can afford to lose with that wallet so even if it gets zero then it's fine, but if it gets profit then that's only a bonus for them.
892  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online gambling becomes popular on: June 21, 2021, 01:00:20 PM
Not just only online gambling is popular right now, even online selling and other kinds of stuff online are trending now because of pandemic and I think this is also the right time for cryptocurrency to make the name loud this time because cryptocurrency is an online use that people can afford to use especially to those who don't want to go outside their house, and want to make money online. As you have noticed before, bitcoin value pump during the pandemic and that is because people now are more in their house than outside their house. For sure a lot of people now are accepting cryptocurrency in their lives now than before.
893  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Lopez vs Kambosos - June 19 on: June 21, 2021, 12:47:09 PM
We have some breaking news. Teofimo Lopez has tested positive for Covid-19 and this fight has been postponed, again. This has been a real disaster for Triller who paid a lot more money than this fight was worth and then had to change the date because of the Floyd fight and now because of this.


BREAKING: Source: Teofimo Lopez tests positive for Covid-19, Kambosos fight and card is off, moving to Aug. 14.#boxing #LopezKambosos


Damn, after so many postponements, here we are again hehe.

Moving the fight to August 14 might not be a good idea as the fight between Manny and Errol Spence is scheduled on August 21 so I think people might not buy the PPV as they rather watch the Pacman return.


Don't you think that there are some things fishy about those postponements? Sorry if you think I have a green mind but who's with me? LOL. This is really a disaster for those who already make a bet. Don't you think that people will make another bet while some of their money is floating? You are right @bisdak4, I guess people would rather go in pacmans return.
894  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is buying three bitcoin worth it? on: June 21, 2021, 12:35:29 PM
I’ve been reading up on bitcoin and saw that Tim Draper estimates the price will hit 250k in 2022. I honestly could never afford a ton of bitcoin even now at 37k but I could afford three. It would be a lot of my savings, not all, but a majority. Is it worth it to spend almost 111 thousand dollars buying three bitcoin? Will it make me back a substantial amount more money? Please help!10.0.0.0.1 192.168.1.254

If you think that the price will drop 250k in 2022 then that is not worth buying. If this is the time you will buy bitcoin then don't buy it. I think it is better to earn it in some ways now than to buy, but if you are a short time holder then maybe you can still earn with it, just always look at the price and then if you think you already gain profit then encash it then try to not encash all of it. Try to maintain what is your investment and just withdraw what you have earned.
895  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: YOUR FAVORITE GAMBLING? on: June 20, 2021, 08:47:31 AM
I really don't have a favorite gambling game but what I do most time is to play games especially those one I'm good at. I believe in achievement rather than playing so many games without having a good skill in it. I like taking steps one after the other just like playing dices couple of times.
No matter what is your favourite gambling game, you need to avoid the achievement that you say because that can make you play more often than the other gambler. The achievement needs time, which will not make us stop from playing gambling and if you still do that in the long term, I am afraid that you can become addicted to gambling. Once you become addicted, there are not easy to stop gambling because your mind will only want to play gambling.
It is a lot of fun playing gambling especially when we are winning most of the time. I heard that my sister is playing online gambling here in our country and she already won some, but she is not using cryptocurrency, but you can still use your crypto and convert it into fiat. She is playing "online sabong" and I think it is really fun 😀 when I saw it and try some. I lose, but it is just a small amount that I can afford to lose, maybe next time I can also win like her, I think it is just not my lucky day that day.
896  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Holding 5 years a just a imagination on: June 18, 2021, 11:43:42 AM
Some coins are going to be useless after 5years or more, but some coins has a potential that can make us all rich. I've heard some airdrop hunters got rich because of joining airdrop every single day.
Yes, but there are also many Airdrop hunters who don't get anything even though they often join Airdrops, so when you see that there are some people who are lucky for something, then you also have to research the people who have lost because of that.
Some got lucky receiving coins from airdrop which they no longer expect that it gives them money, it was just surprising that this year during the bullish season most of these shitcoins are pumping for no reason.
We have this experience last 2017, 2021, and might happen as well in the next Bullrun. But as I've said, we can assure that what we hold now (shitcoins) will likely pump. So better not to think them either but to invest those potential coins for a bigger chance.
That's right, I use to earn in airdrop before and I think that year (2017) is a lucky year for me for cryptocurrency. I use to earn in airdrops 2 times, and I for sure there are still potential shitcoins that can have a value for no reason. I have a lot of shitcoins in my etherwallet and I still want to join airdrops because no one knows that maybe one of those coins can have a potential someday. And there is nothing wrong for trying.
897  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Holding 5 years a just a imagination on: June 18, 2021, 10:19:12 AM


we keep the coins at least 5 years , but its too long imagination.  you can proof it. 2018 early NEM coin was top 6 Marketcap now 56. so keeping its useless. we have to updated everytime and get the action the correct time and exit.


Now i think bear market is going on , so holding for 4,5 years just a imagination. specially i have to say that TOP 5 coins , we must keep  most probebly they will surpass the All time high again.

what all your perspectives?

 
Some coins are going to be useless after 5years or more, but some coins has a potential that can make us all rich. I've heard some airdrop hunters got rich because of joining airdrop every single day.
898  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does implementing a tax on a gambling platform really help a country? on: June 18, 2021, 09:28:05 AM
Implementing a tax on gambling will help a lot of people in every country. But it also depends on the government if they will never be corrupt then this will be a big help especially provide financial needs on Non-governmental organizations and provide financial needs on every aspect of the project that the government wants to establish in building a great country.
899  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Fully vaccinated individuals now spared of masks in the casinos in Vegas on: June 18, 2021, 09:17:32 AM
Face masks and face shields are now implemented because this is our new normal now. We must follow their guidelines, rules, and protocols in our everyday lives. Even if we are not so sure about this for us to be safe, we still need use to it for us to be safe as we could. A lot of us still want to go to casinos because most of us use to it, so now that the casinos/other casinos are now operating, we will never blame them if they are still wanting to go to casinos despite pandemic.
900  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Prayer and gambling. on: June 18, 2021, 08:17:41 AM
Praying has nothing to do with our bets. We pray for our wants, but that does it mean we can already get what we want when we pray especially if it is about gambling. For me, we have the same God. It just depends on your beliefs but we have one God. I already experience praying before betting, like 'please make me win this time but not all the time it is granted because we are the ones who make our fate.
