901  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: benefits of having mature accounts at 3 casinos (personal experience) on: August 06, 2023, 07:55:53 AM
Thanks for share your experience.
Ok each site offers its benefits, but I have a couple of questions:
- is it really an advantage to play to get this result (i.e. reach a vip rank?)
- why not maximize these benefits on a single gaming account (and therefore get these advantages on a single platform)?


We already know this answer to this one, since gambling is all about luck it makes no sense to keep trying your luck on one casino when you can do same with two casinos, either with higher VIP rank or not you will still lose and the game of luck is still running either ways so..

I have tried using more than one online casinos before just to see how it plays out and the experience is not much of a difference but it's still better, I took this route because I gamble for two weeks straight on a single casino and I got nothing, I kept losing over and over again, but when I try another it's not the same.

This is why I think it's better to use more than one online casino to try your luck, it sometimes make sense. 
902  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A person who won 600k$ in lottery on: August 04, 2023, 08:05:41 AM
That's cool amount of money, but 600k is not something you can have and decide to start buying things that wont be appreciating in value in time, if I have 600k right now or I won it through gambling it will be use to speed up my retirement, I will use 80% of this money to buy Bitcoin and wait for new highs to sell them, I will be in millions of dollars if that happen, I am presently living the life I want to live and the only thing I have in mind is to keep growing nonstop.

If you make such money from gambling I don't expect you to go back to gambling, trying to make more money, you will only end up where you started before making the 600k, learn to always walk away when luck favours you.
903  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Irresponsible behavior at the Las Vegas Casino on: August 03, 2023, 10:02:57 AM
This look like a drug case, maybe the victim was drugged by his friends? And that's a bunch of bad friends that he should stay away from, if I am the wife I will make sure he never get closer to such friends anymore because they intentionally shamed him, while he was running naked or about to run naked where are the friends?

And for those that are surprised that this happened in a casino well if this fella went to a church he would have done the same, this has nothing to do with where is his, casino has nothing to do with this, it can happen anywhere.

But I still don't understand why he decide to get drunk or drugged at a casino, aren't gamblers need to stay focused? A serious gambler will never drink with friends in a casino, unless casinos now have bars?
904  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Possible measures to stop online gambling addiction. on: August 03, 2023, 09:07:48 AM
Let's stop fooling ourselves the truth is once you like gambling there's no way you can stop there are times where you will give it a break but you will always come back because gambling is more than just making money out of it I still have some games in my head that I feel like playing but I can't afford to gamble right now so the best way to tackle this issue of addiction is to always have little money that you can afford to use for gambling and discipline yourself enough that whenever that money never comes then you won't be gambling anytime soon until you make the extra income from gambling only have a budget in mind and you won't have any problem with gambling.
905  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Have you, or would you ever use a Bitcoin ATM? on: August 03, 2023, 08:16:02 AM
Bitcoin ATM will be cool but not necessary because I have my hot wallet for daily transactions, also Where I am from I won't dare go near an ATM because there are always some people waiting to see the set of people that will use such machine, they could think I am well made of money that's why I can use it, I will probably wait till Bitcoin ATM is not even scare anymore and many people are using it, why I describe it this way is because of the illiteracy of my people, which have made them do stupid things that you can only see in the hands of the Barbarians.

Why use Bitcoin ATM anyway? I don't see any reason why, normal address transactions and barcode scanning for payment are enough, for me.
906  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: My new favorite betting method. on: August 03, 2023, 07:17:07 AM
I am glad this strategy is working for you but do not feel like you are smarter than any casino because your game can change later on, this strategy brings profit for you more than loss but it can still change to more losses than profit, I have learned the hardest way, when it comes to gambling on any casino with such any strategy it doesn't always work well, at first it will work for a long period of time or short period of time but it won't always be the same there will be a time that it will change totally so always treat the gambling as a gamble it is not something you can rely on because you have a gambling strategy, anything can change at any time.

In short you're just telling to people: inflation in fiat will make your fiat worthless, invest in precious metal or Bitcoin.

Well almost everyone already aware and know that, but they're just feel more comfortable to hold fiat in banks rather than precious metal or Bitcoin. This because they think precious metal and Bitcoin has a volatility that would make their investment value decrease. They're just scared, but we can't do anything since it's their choice. At least I'm the one who holds most of my money in Bitcoin rather than fiat and precious metal.
You are right and it takes someone who thinks out of the picture to understand that holding Fiat on the long term is trash, things grow higher in price, and the Fiat you held on to loses value way faster, I can never feel comfortable holding any Fiat because I understand that things won't always be the same way they are before, Bitcoin is the only thing that worth having my money bet on and I am not bothered because of volatility, if you understand how crypto market works you won't be bothered because of volatility.
908  Economy / Digital goods / Re: For Sale: Thriving Crypto Online Casino - A Hidden Gem on: August 02, 2023, 09:11:29 AM
Try harder

Casino is one of the most biggest business in the world, it takes no time to make insane amount of money if people are using the platform to gamble, I am not buying the idea that you are selling and moving into something else, where many people are casinos owners and they are using the money they make from the casino to fund something else.

Also since it's a highly reputable casino it won't be hard to find buyers off this forum, why bring it on here? I doubt anyone will have interest, I also believe its hard to pass casino ownership to new buyer.

Lastly, this is coming from a new account, is that why you don't want to disclose the name? Maybe people will do research if truly the casino is for sale or not? If you really want to sell it's not something you should hide.

There is no proof that you are the real owner, it's going to be hard to trust you.
909  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: is it possible to invest in bitcoin to build a country whose economy is down? on: August 02, 2023, 08:35:13 AM
It's possible, a country can invest heavily into Bitcoin and that will bring a better future for the country, this is why I pity some poor countries that still went on to ban Bitcoin in the country, they are so blind to see what opportunity is waiting for them right now and there is nothing we can do about it.

Also if the country is in the hands of corrupted souls there won't be any improvement even if they Invest all they have in Bitcoin, by the time the in investment is ripped enough they already have bad intent for the money, so if a country with bad leaders adopts Bitcoin it won't make any difference.

910  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Playing Slot Games On Demo/Free mode Vs Live/Paid Mode on: August 02, 2023, 07:35:56 AM
Free slots games is like opening a demo account on a forex trading app, when you as a newbie try it out you will easily think it's not hard to make money, because the free mode will give bringing you the results you most desires, but the real game with your money at stake will bring a different result, so I think it's better to say free slots games are like advertising tool for casino companies, there is no other explanations than this, don't go on thinking that demo/free mode slots will be same with real slots gambling, you will lose all your money.

Demo or free slots, they are different from the actual game, there is no other way to make more gains in gambling, you just have to protect yourself and your money, use only what you can afford to lose to gamble, so that your future days will be easy.
911  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Nigeria continuous banning of crypto on: August 01, 2023, 01:01:11 PM
That's a bad Government Nigeria citizens is facing today, and things in the country is not working as supposed to be, which Nigeria is really facing economy challenge's, no much Job or work for a fresh graduate in Nigeria youths citizens and level of poverty in the country is increasing everyday by day. Which Bitcoin is created to reduced level of poverty in the world, which government agency are not aware, because of lack of knowledge. As long the internet exists crypto we continue to explore.
I trust the government that is already corrupt, they will try to make money out of anything, is it not Nigeria you talking about? They just don't know how, probably lack of knowledge wouldn't let them, I remember there was a ban on crypto but people are still buying and selling crypto with fiat, they don't even know that peer-to-peer transaction is possible.

Many people in the country are making money from crypto investment and trading, some turned into millionaires and the government agencies mistook them as fraudsters, until they challenged them and ask how they get their money and it's revealed to them that they make money from trading and investment, they are now getting to know that it's possible to make life changing money from crypto but they still haven't find a way to rob or steal from traders and investors yet.

It's better to keep doing your things silently, The more people from the country embrace Bitcoin, the more people will have hope, and maybe escape from their once destitution life, the government won't do shit to help.
912  Economy / Economics / Re: What roles does the poor play in the Economy? on: August 01, 2023, 12:11:46 PM
Poor people are great at making the rich even richer. That’s the purpose of their existence. They work in low paying jobs and they buy the shit they don’t need because they know they will never get rich saving money so they spend every penny they get. In most cases they don’t even have enough money left to spend after paying the rent and bills…
Mind trick playing games on them, poor isn't generally a bad thing, I said this because some found peace been poor, come to think of it, there is a much larger problems awaiting the rich people, most poor people are more happier than rich people, what they have is real apart from expensive things the rich can do with ease.

Poor man's mind is for how long is it going to take, this is why it's hard to advice a poor man to start investing, I've been there for some poor people, I saw what they are going through and I couldn't keep my eye off them, I tried to help, not with money but ways they can turn things around for themselves but they picture the journey as been too stressful.

Some poor people believe that the journey of turning things around for themselves is evil, because they will do things they don't want to do, sadly people with this set of mind still lives around me, there ain't no fixing for them, they are good the way they are.

Moreover, there are many businesses that are progressing today because of poor people, and some businessmen have said that in a country where there is a struggle is not good for companies that build costly items, you need to build affordable things for such people to use or consume. You are serving the poor people, a business man I know said this too. 

I think he is right, before coming up with a business idea, first look at your surroundings, don't build what people won't be able to afford.

Poor people have a bigger role they play in rich people's lives.
913  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gender in Gambling [differences between Women and Men in Gambling] on: August 01, 2023, 11:15:09 AM
Let's be real in discussing the actual matter here, someone like me cannot allow my sister to be a gambler, i have so many reasons to use as evidence in avoiding her for doing such because in my own place where i live, it's not common seing women into gambling and the men that does it were seen as jobless fellows, if women should engage in gambling then maybe through their personal phone and not going to the public casinos for gambling, it's not about the culture here, but being mannered and courtesy.
Let me give you this simple example,  take it as if your sister bought an American lottery ticket that gives her relocation and works overseas and the chance to relocate with dependence,  if you find yourself in that situation will you still blame or kick against your sister from gambling or not.

I think it is better that regardless of what the reality is,  there shouldn't be discrimination in terms of gender in anything that involves risk or luck like gambling.
Wiwo you've made a very good example and I believe that in that situation 80% of guys if not 100 especially those living in an uncivilized society would see that as an opportunity to relocate to a better place and would even forget that they were  even against their sister when she wanted buying the lottery. One thing I noticed from your suggestion is that people would always be in support of something when it beneficial to them. But kick against it when they think it's of no gain to them.

 Regardless of different peoples culture or traditions that doesn't permit women to involve in certain things they feel is in proper or ill mannered due to their gender. I believe in gender equality and I also think that every has a right to their choice and shouldn't be discriminated even if it involves risk taking or not, well all thanks to technology that has made it possible for women to gamble online at the comfort of their home without being abused or discriminated
All I know is, a gambling addict is a gambling addict, either male or female, you will probably have problem if you have a wife or a husband who is into gambling, because how will you tell if they are responsible with gambling in their lives?

Most men that are into gambling hide this from their wives because if things go wrong financially they will think it's because you are cursed due to your gambling activities, maybe that's where all your money is going? This is why most men keep it as secret.

I know someone who gambles a lot in secret and everything leaked out after he got married, this happened when the man lost his job, she was not complaining about gambling when the man was getting his salary per month, until no more money was coming in, it's true that most men are into gambling than women but pray that you don't have an addict as a wife or husband.
914  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling experience using loan money on: August 01, 2023, 10:10:00 AM
I am strongly against any loan activities, either using loan to invest or do stupid things I don't care because loan or borrowing money is like a road to downfall for me, I have done it in the past and it never worked well, when I ask questions from my family I learned that it's a bad thing even in the family, I am saying this because it's weird.

I am one of the few that have this going on in their lives, if I take loan for anything, it won't end well, it's either I end up in debt and find it hard to pay up or everything I use the money for will collapse, at first I thought it's spiritual attack, but why things work better for me when I use my own hard earned money? This is why I believed what my parent told me, because it has happened to them and they never tell a soul until I told them about what I was going through.

Now how can someone in their right sense go out and get a loan for gambling? There is no way anyone can tell me that they know what's gonna happen with gambling, only dic*head gamblers who don't know how risky gambling is will do such stupid thing, it's not even as if they don't know how risky it is, they stupidly believe that they will always win, the thoughts in the mind sometimes can ruin people.
915  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Does cryptocurrency actually solve any problems? on: July 31, 2023, 10:59:59 AM
Not cryptocurrency in general, some of them add more to my problem than they solving it, for example Defi projects, I just lost some money because of hack that took place hours ago on Curve Network and it affected may projects under Curve, some utilities are not helping in this space at all, instead they are adding more problem than they solve, Bitcoin seem to be the better place to be, I always hate banks and Bitcoin just came like a striking storm to get the problem fixed and it did.

It's like I have been dying of a decentralization way of getting away from the government and their rules over someone like me, Bitcoin has given me hope that I can survive without the government in control of my life, Bitcoin is doing more than just giving me more money, I am now a 90% Bitcoin man and a 10% Bank user.

Most crypto projects want to be like Bitcoin and as time goes on they will start distancing themselves from the path, because they want to catch some FOMO and HYPE in the space, they can be decentralized today and turn centralized tomorrow,  do not be shocked, there is nothing like Bitcoin
916  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I'll always tell people about bitcoin on: July 31, 2023, 09:09:19 AM
I am always somewhere in between telling people about Bitcoin and not telling anyone because I have learn a lot, while I was finding my way up I have meet some people that only knows how to discourage me, even after telling them the opportunity that comes with Bitcoin investment, so I learn to keep my mouth shut.

Now I make sure that you are into online hustles that can bring you money before I can tell you about Bitcoin investment, I am not going to tell you about Bitcoin if you are a store owner or a trader, their mindset is always on something else, such people are harder to confuse about anything so its like a stress to me.

In my opinion, it is not important to confuse people into investing in Bitcoin, since people will eventually start rushing into Bitcoin themselves, and most people look for short-term gains anyway, so bitcoin investment does not appeal to everyone.
917  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What could make you get into a fight with your fellow gambler? on: July 31, 2023, 08:54:14 AM
Nothing can make me get into fight with other gamblers, because I don't take money from anyone to gamble and I also don't visit any local casinos for gambling, I believe if these two things are not your ways you won't have any fight with anyone.

You'll run into problems once you start using a friend's casino platform and something bad happen along the line, or giving them money so they can gamble with it. I see few people doing this, thinking someone else is more fortunate than them, which is totally absurd.

I find gambling even more satisfying because it's available online, no one will know that I am also a gambler, and your secret stays safe if you don't go out and borrow money from people, because if you don't pay up in time they will come after you and everyone living next to you will know what you have been involved with.
Gambling at local casinos and with friends or getting into trouble with other gamblers is common because of arguments and insulting cheers, that's why I prefer gambling at online casinos and also online betting, I prefer to play by myself than with friends, it seems the same as you, why should people know that we are gamblers.

It doesn't have to be our friends to know that we are gamblers, just enjoy gambling online then when I lose I just close my account and go to sleep, don't get ridicule from other gambler friends who can make a fuss, that's the importance of playing gambling alone on online platforms compared to local casinos and land, it will not make us really comfortable playing gambling there. believe me Grin
You are right boss, this is the best path as a gambler, no one should ever know, not even my spouse or friends, when I lose money it's on me and how far that could hurt me is also on me, the only way to shrink the hurting feeling after losing is to always use small money to gamble, you will feel less panic and be able to concentrate on the fun part of gambling, it's simple because you are not risking too much anyway. It's nice to see someone who thinks like me, I always feel like I am a weirdo.
918  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Top 5 Things to Consider When Choosing an Online Casino on: July 31, 2023, 08:06:51 AM
I have to be honest I don't care about license but I don't play with how long a online casino have been working, I like long time working casino because I can easily find reviews about the casino online to see what people have learned using the casino, in other word, reputation is very important so that's why I don't care about the license.

I am not saying it's not important to look into a casino license information but this is my own style of picking a online casino, if a online casino is not well known on this forum I am not sending my Bitcoin on such a platform, this is why newbies must ask questions about any online casinos that their friends want them to join, some might have bad reputation already and some might be scam too.

If all you rely on is this forum for gambling and crypto information you will never be lead astray, ask and wait for answers, you will be guided to the right sources and best information.
919  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can you use Bitcoin to pay everything online? on: July 30, 2023, 05:15:59 PM
There is nothing to rush about, the numbers of online stores that are now accepting crypto payment are growing in numbers, almost all big VPN companies now accepts Bitcoin, even the new VPN companies like WhoerNet is now accepting crypto payment, most people living in the UK are using electroneum platform to make payment, it works for those that are living outside the UK, you can use crypto to pay for some Bills and also subscribe to Netflix or buy recharge cards and data, it's only a matter of time, very soon we will have more people in Bitcoin than the past years and this will trigger crypto as means of payment for many businesses.
920  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: When it's all set and done, do not forget those in need. on: July 30, 2023, 02:04:17 PM
Bitcoin is far from what you are describing, and that's why I believe you are talking about Ponzi scheme, if this is how you view Bitcoin you are wrong.

Someone needs to show how the world works to OP, there was a man in my street, I met him years ago in that street and few guys there are telling me how rich he was, I asked what happened and they said he helped so many people that he ended up broke, and the cruel part is none of those he helped try to help him back.

He got a bad sickness and he eventually lost his life, see OP, you can't keep helping people, you will end up broke and they won't help you in return, apart from money, haven't you learn that you can't satisfy people? You did this they tell you is wrong and some will say it's right, you did other thing people will curse you and some will pray for you.

If I have to help I will pick few numbers of people, probably friends or in the family and that's it.

The world is more cure that you think, even you helping others can put you in greater risk than when you don't do anything for anyone, it's better to stay hidden when you have money, than to come out and start helping people, more trouble will come visiting.
