I don't know how much I trust this study. If you are only collecting data from a small sample size you can make a study say whatever you want. Discrimination by casinos against LGBT people doesn't seem like it's a widespread issue. Casinos don't care about your sexual orientation as long as they can take your money.
Online casinos offer many benefits such as privacy and convenience. They singled out LGBT people but this is probably the preferred option for the general population as well.

Alot of alts have never recovered to their previous ATH even with bullruns. One instance is the Biswap; that thing tanked 90% compared to it's early 2022 pricing.
On the bright side, FUN tokens makes up with them free spins and slightly higher interest rates. Ain't complaining.
I dumped Biswap immediately following the Binance listing pump. Binance was the sole reason it went from $0.30 to almost $2 in a short amount of time. I knew it couldn't sustain it's price with high inflation and nothing to really justify that massive pump. There is some similarities between FUN and BSW. Those high yields come with the downside of greatly increasing the circulating supply and creating downward pressure on the price.

Not that simple. In most of the opinion polls, Biden is trailing his opponent from the GOP (irrespective of whether it is Trump or DeSantis) by a healthy margin. How can he have better odds, given this? The most recent opinion poll from Economist/YouGov puts the 2024 POTUS Elections at a tie between Trump and Biden (42% vs 42%). Still, given the electoral college system, Trump should have the advantage (he won in 2016, despite securing less votes when compared to Hillary). Online casinos are assuming that despite leading in opinion polls, the GOP candidate will not win (as a result of infighting?).
I came across this on oddschecker.com. Despite having twice as many bets as Joe Biden the odds are still against Trump. There is not any details as to how they compiled this data but i can assume that there are some whales that are moving the odds toward Biden. Maybe Trump voters aren't confident in their candidate and are only making small bets for him. Once there is more clarity regarding Trump's legal problems we could see the odds begin to narrow.

According to the Internet Archive these new terms have been implemented less than a month ago. I feared this day would eventually come. Recently they seem to have an increased focus on the licensed KYC casinos that under their ownership. Their XFUN wallet also has KYC features which I found odd since it's purpose is to support their decentralized gaming token. Any time they've promoted anything having to do with their FUN token they've emphasized the decentralized aspect but that doesn't really align with the measures they've been taking. Op's screenshot shows T&C popup available on signup procsess, can someone provide a link to T&C in logging in state? I'm an old user and my bad I never found the T&C page as far as I searched on some of the freebitco pages. -snip- Perhaps, they have registered a licence under Curacao (I'm not sure about this yet).
Freebitco also restricts curacao users, I think there is no way a company registered in country X will restrict users from the same base. cmiiw Setting up a BV, privately held company, is a requirement for acquiring a Curacao license so they are either already licensed or in the process of getting licensed. Once you are a licensee you are not allowed to accept citizens from Curacao.

^^ Most likely two scenarios,
a. fans who bought the ticket for the Donaire vs Santiago will be refunded full. b. or they are going to be given the chance to watch it on the reschedule fight.
So everything is building right now, the fans of both in social media are hyping the fight and have their own predictions on how the fight is going to end. I still haven't decided yet. But I might bet as the fight gets closer to the date.
Spence vs. Crawford is practically sold out so option B is out of the question. Donaire vs. Santiago was only a supporting bout, the main event still happened so technically fans got the event they paid for and aren't eligible for a refund either. The only option would have been to resell or transfer your tickets through the Ticketmaster app.

There is also a news that Teo Lopez is back and is looking for a 140 lbs clash with Devin Haney. We all know that Teo said that he has officially retired after beating Josh Taylor. Now, WBO has order a fight between Arnold Barboza and Jose Ramirez. But Lopez was given 24 hours to respond and block that fight and so he did. But he wanted Haney in his return as Devin says that he will move up in weight. So lots of interesting development here. Not to boast but I expected this to happen, not to Devin Haney as a target specifically but I already thought that Teo Lopez might surprise us again as he now feel the urge to be somebody as he is now a champion at 140 lbs. because there is no sense at all in retirement at such an early age after winning a championship. Shakur is trying to enforce his mandatory with the WBC against Haney at lightweight. There is some real animosity between Teo and Haney so that is also an interesting option. Lomachenko is the most deserving of an opportunity due to how close their fight was. It appears that Haney isn't interested in any of these options and will instead fight Regis Prograis. Eddie Hearn must have made a massive offer since that is probably the least interesting option for Haney. Regis Prograis looked awful in his last fight and couldn't even sell tickets in his hometown. On a positive note, if Haney vacates his lightweight titles then we will probably see Shakur vs. Lomachenko which is one of the best matchups that can possibly be made.

Trump being the underdog makes it an attractive option to place money on him. If people were okay with him being a racist, lying, cheating, scamming, sexual abuser I doubt that stealing classified documents is going to affect him in a negative way. Biden is no saint himself. He has a ton of baggage when it comes to corruption, race issues, and sexual abuse and is clearly showing signs of dementia. Cornell West is also a credible enough third party candidate that he could win over enough support from Democrat leaning voters, African Americans in particular, that it could prevent Biden from being re-elected.

If I'm not mistaken, it was agreed that Marlon Tapales will indeed face the winner of Inoue vs Fulton fight for unification. Marlon Tapales set for undisputed clash vs winner of Fulton-InoueSo it will be great if he will be there to see the fight and probably will go up in the ring after the fight and challenge the winner for the undisputed 122 lbs. Akhmadaliev will have to wait though, maybe he will go on another title eliminator fight before getting a crack again on whoever has the belt. There doesn't seem to be any kind of formal agreement that guarantees him that opportunity, the WBA is just making it easier for them to negotiate that fight. A fight with Fulton would be easier to make since MP Promotions has a partnership with TGB, PBC's de facto promoter. I couldn't imagine Naoya turning down the opportunity to become undisputed and for Tapales it means a career high payday so I hope it won't be too complicated to negotiate that fight and we will have a single champion by the end of this year.

Who would've thought an unregulated lending platform, offering unrealistically high yields, trying to print it's own money, and was started by a pathological liar would turn out to be a scam? Celsius isn't all that different from other projects that began during the ICO boom. If the rules were applied fairly then many other ICO scammers deserve to be locked up alongside Mashinsky.

Mainly it's due to speculation. If an ETF gets approved it could mean there will be greater interest from institutions that want to invest in Bitcoin. A stamp of approval from the SEC would make it harder for regulators, and Bitcoin detractors in general, to make an argument that Bitcoin is bad and we need to pass laws in order to "protect investors".
The halving is also near. Fewer coins mined combined with greater desire from investors is the classic supply & demand scenario.

There will always be some situations where even with KYC you will have people who will disobey the rules and find a way to gamble even if they are underage. Casinos don't want minors gambling on their site because it can get them in trouble with their license provider. If you are caught they will certainly ban you. There is only so much an online casino can do to prevent this from happening while still respecting people's privacy.

Using the blockchain as cloud storage is not really scalable. NFT protocols don't actually store images directly and instead what you are paying for is proof that you own something that is outside of the blockchain. There's been some instances where people's NFTs disappeared from their wallet because Metamask couldn't connect to a third party API. As long as you are relying on centralized databases then their is no guarantee that your NFT will last forever.

Bonus whoring used to be an effective method of earning money from online casinos. How it would work was that you would claim a bonus amount, $50 for example, and if the wagering requirements were 20x with a 1% house edge you could bet $1000 dollars only risking the minimum amount and in the end you would expect to lose $10 leaving you with $40 profit. You would then repeat the process at a different casino. Eventually, casinos figured out that people were doing this and made the gambling requirements stricter so that if would be much more difficult to make a profit.

USDT is available on over a dozen blockchains. The cheapest of these and most widely accepted is probably the Tron version. From the options listed on buysellvouchers.com TRC-20 Tether is the cheapest option. My understanding is that the gift cards sold on this site are not coming from authorized resellers which means there is a possibility of getting scammed. You could end up with a gift card that was bought with a stolen credit card and then your account might get suspended by the merchant when you try to use it. There are better options for buying gift cards like Bitrefill and Coincards which accept Lightning Network payments so you can pay with BTC with very minimal fees.

I just read that Ngannou's fight purse against Tyson Fury is around $8 Million which is similar to what UFC offered him to defend his title against Jon Jones. Huge leap from his last fight which reported to be around $600K so kudos for a getting a great deal even after all the fallout.
$600k is embarrassingly low amount for a heavyweight champion fighting for the most recognizable brand in combat sports. I knew the UFC underpaid its top fighters but that is just shocking to hear that his purse was so low. Even fighters who have never headlined a pay-per-view card, like Shakur Stevenson, can earn millions in boxing. No wonder so many MMA guys seem desperate to fight against boxers even when we know they don't have much of a chance to defeat top pound for pound stars.

As a morally upright person that does not like to cheat people, but gambles and has lost a lot of money to gambling in a casino where you have sometimes been cheated even without your knowledge or betting on sports, will you take an opportunity you get and go against your moral standards to cheat a casino or sportsbetting place, just so you can win big at least even once.
Will you try a trick to win on casino game machines if you were told and it is a 100% working trick to cash out? Will you bet on fixed games if you get the tip early?
I would not try to cheat at a casino where I regularly gambled at. The risk is too high of getting caught and banned which would mean I could no longer collect any future benefits and bonuses. For a small amount of money it would not be worth taking a chance but if there was an exploit like the one that was used to win thousands of Bitcoins from Primedice then it would be crazy to not consider it. Only for that kind of once in a lifetime type of opportunity would it be worth taking a chance.

No, it is not advisable. You don't need some secret wisdom to read charts and identify trends. Anyone can do this if they take some time to learn. Free groups are fine if you just want to learn and hear others opinions. If they start trying to shill you something and asking for money that is a red flag. There is a lot of snake oil salesman in these types of groups, especially the paid ones.

The only advantage I can see for a web3 casino would be the NO KYC aspect. Gamblers who value their privacy might want to consider this option. I have never used a web3 casino but if you are betting on-chain directly I can potentially see issues with it being to slow and expensive. Even layer 2 blockchains can have high fees and face congestion which don't make it ideal for really small transactions. If a popular casino like Stake moved their entire userbase to an on-chain casino, that blockchain would slow to a crawl and fees would skyrocket. I wouldn't want to make a $5 bet and end up having to wait hours for a confirmation and pay $10 in gas fees.

Donald Trump had several casinos that went bankrupt but I don't think it was because of players winning too much. A player winning might only be one of several factors that can lead to a casino having financial problems. Casinos have salaries they have to pay employees and they need to give away nice bonuses to attract new customers. Your expenses might become unsustainable if you are not bringing enough revenue to cover those costs. Casinos are legally allowed to ban players if they win too much so it is nearly impossible to go bankrupt solely for this reason.
