921  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Is buying merit parmited on: July 03, 2023, 06:06:23 PM
After reading this thread I am quite amazed because I would have said without any hint of a doubt that merit selling is some kind of merit abuse and, therefore, clear reason to be banned. But, surprise! there is no rule that prohibits it and, applying the analogy, it is legit (but discouraged) Roll Eyes

Theymos probably don’t want to become harsh on dealing with merit abuse since it’s easy to spot them using merit graph and he believes that implication of having a red tag is enough to scare those user that will deal with it instead of making additional work for mods to ban all the suspected merit abusers.

Red tag user is almost equal to no value account because they can’t join the campaign which is the main reason why users want to earn merit on quick way to rank up and join campaign.

As I've said before, I'm not really worried about it. Especially at those high prices (plus the risk of being red-tagged), it's enough of a barrier that it should still serve its intended function of creating a significant cost/barrier for garbage-posters.
922  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: cant found 1000x !!! Should i make my own project ??? on: July 03, 2023, 05:55:04 PM
After the super pump of pepe who started the project on 2023 April 16th, many people started to make their own project. And we suddenly enter memes season, But, i found most of them is scams project, we can say 99% all of new project is scam (pump n dump, marketing wallet fraud, rugpull, etc). I just thinking after being scammed by hundred of new project, there will not project become the next pepe !!! Should i make my own project Huh

You can only make a x1000 profit if you are the owner of the project or part of the the project that has an insider news and early access to the token before it will be listed to the market. it’s very hard for a normal trader to get that kind of profit if you are just buying on the market since you will have no idea if the project is scam or legit. the majority of altcoins that pump like pepe coins has a lot of budget to fund marketing and liquidity to boost the price in early stage to create a hype.

You will need huge money if you want to launch your own token and reach a x1000 profit using your own token. It’s harder to create your own token rather than having a connection for an inside trade.

You probably didn't try your best to look for a bookmaker that is not a scam. Stake.com had been around for years. I'd be surprised if you hadn't heard of it.

What I'm not sure of is what you mean by beating a sportbook, they are pretty much rich and they limit how much you can bet if they are not able to pay you if you win. Thats sort of how it works and guarantees you may not be able to bankrupt them.



I think his scam description to crypto bookies are those casino that limit a user when they are winning frequently that makes user like him doesn’t have enough time to play more in the casino to generate more profit. Most of the case of casino scam accusation usually involves sports betting. The reason for that is because user is placing only on valued bets or on matches that is flagged as fixed match.

I think he will experience that same even on Stake or other reputable bookie since he mention that he is always successful on having a profit by playing on bookies.
924  Economy / Gambling discussion / Gambling scenario that keeps repeating on you on: July 03, 2023, 04:24:29 PM
I have this kind of gambling scenario that I’m always experiencing when I’m gambling. Whenever I use bankroll that is close to 00 like 80, 180, 290, 360 and so on always result to a lose in the end. It’s very hard for me to surpass the nearest 00’ milestone no matter how hard I try on betting slow or quick. I knew the problem is I’m rushing to achieve that goal to have a closure that makes me struggle on the game instead of focusing on being happy to play the game.

FYI, I’m always winning easily above 00 target that I’m struggling to get from the above scenario when I start my bankroll far lower from 00 balance like 30, 40,130, 330 and so on. I hope that you get I mean on my balance description.



Do you have this kind of same scenario that puts you on an infinite loop when you are gambling as in you don’t move forward at all?
925  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Betting strategy question on: July 02, 2023, 08:57:42 PM
While other thinks that with good mathematical calculations, they can create a strategy that will give them some edge and will allow
them to make some good amount of money out from the casino.

People that believe on this and play on games such as slot that is pure luck based game doesn’t make sense. There’s no way to come up with a calculations that can give someone an edge against casino that has a house edge on a luck based game. It’s either they are just using that calculation as an excuse to play more or they really just dumb to justify that there’s a way to have an edge against casino on luck based game.
                     
Casino games result se RNG. I think hackign the code is the only way to have a real advantage to the casino that is using RNG for the result. Betting strategy will just make user more organized and limit losses by making careless but strategy will never give an advantage or an edge against the casino.               
926  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you cheat in gambling? on: July 02, 2023, 08:12:44 PM
If it's to win at odds, then maybe, if you can.. sometimes in gambling, profits will be more attractive than the ideal of being a fair player. because it's not certain that other gamblers or the odds will also be fair to us. let alone in gambling, even in games as usual there will usually be cheating activities, so this is not a taboo or new thing anymore

This is a poor excuse for cheating: "maybe they are also cheating us". Thieves often try to justify their actions by saying saying something like that. It doesn't work. Judges and people overall don't take their words into account. And rightly so. If you think a casino is cheating, stop playing there and open a scam accusation, but don't try to become a scammer yourself.

It's like I killed someone because I suspect he killed one of my relatives or tried to kill me. Even if it's proved that someone killed your relatives or attempted to kill you, you still cannot kill someone. There are laws in each county. You cannot make a decision based on just suspicion. You should have some proof to claim that he is a killer and should be punished.

Now, we don't know if some casinos were cheating on us. It's not easy for players to cheat a casino if they do not have some kind of bonus. If you find a loophole where you cheat the platform, it's not ethical to use it to take advantage. In this case, you are a cheater.

As the saying goes, you cannot rectify a mistake by making another mistake.

It might be true that casino and its top officials are cheating to the players and let's say that it was proven that they are guilty about that act but still, your decision is not a valid reason to commit a mistake just because they are doing it or everybody is doing it. You yourself know what is right and what is wrong, and you should take pride about that and so that you can be a role model to someone who is looking up on you. You never know.

This is the right virtue on dealing what’swrong or not but we are all talking about casino which players are very greedy to gain profit or else they will not be gambling and just work to earn profit. In real case scenario if there’s an opportunity like this, I think most of us here including those who have virtue like you mention will be tempted to try this method since it’s 100% working to cashout as stated by OP on his description to this scenario.

It’s really bad to this but I think greedy people especially those who lose big time will not think twice to use this method because we are all human after all. No one will knew what you are doing because it’s online so the chance of people that will do this is very high.

But this is what I got from playing Popeye, where I tried to buy a $3 Bonus Feature by getting 10 Free Bonuses Grin



What provider is this slot game from? It’s new to me to see a 3$ bonus buy since most of the slot game that I play typically charge x90 to x100 of the bet amount. Seeing that you almost get a x2 profit from your small buy bonus amount is really intriguing because this slot game offer low risk game play by having a cheap buy bonus with good return.

The game graphics looks like from one touch due to the similarity of game design of wild coyote.
928  Economy / Gambling / Re: Did BC Change the Algo??? on: July 02, 2023, 06:36:20 PM
Even if you are saying the truth about BC.game. It’s very hard to prove that by using only the statistics of the result since coin flip is pure random games. I’m not a player of BC.game but this is same scenario with slot games with close source code. It’s very hard to prove if the game is rigged and the only thing we are relying is just the reputation of the casino.

Can you provide proof for the change of algo?

Many people agree with me too and are all upset.  The game was never a cake walk. It always presented a challenge but now it's just impossible and it sucks because in my mind it's programmed to think it will play like before so I kept trying like an idiot and kept losing and losing and now I've lost so damned much it's crazy.

I blame myself for that if course but these bastards need to tell people when they change a game like this it isn't right.

Ofcourse many people will agree to you since many of them are those who lose in the casino which is very common since this game is pure random. BC.game has a solid reputation here so accusing them without a solid proof will just look like that you are just whining because you are already losing on the casino after your early winning.

If you really feel BC.game is not honest with their game. Just report them to the license provider so that they can check the probably fair system of the casino. BC.game will not allow anyone to look on it except to license provider. That’s your only way to prove that their games is rigged instead of creating scam accusation against them using your intuition as proof.

The beauty of this God of Hand game by One touch is you can guarantee x100 minimum profit when you hit bonus buy. I remember that the cost for the bonus buy is insane high to the normal bonus buy of slot bonus so manually spinning is the best to hunt bonus round on this game if you want to get a decent profit from that x100 guaranteed.

On the screenshot above, Is the total profit above you bonus buy cost or just an exact x100 profit for your base bet? This game display different currency format when I’m playing.
I hoped to get at least x100 while playing but that didn't come true. I didn't buy the bonus because the few times I tried it in other slot games, I didn't get much money and I realized that it was down to luck not coming my way. So I just play autospin and wait for every round.

I guess that is the total gain from playing those slots. Meanwhile, the cost I spend from the game is probably less than $10 and maybe my total profit is around $20-$30. I don't know. I also didn't calculate how much money I used or got from my winnings.

I just played as usual without expecting much so getting a win like that was a small surprise for me Grin

I think you got the guaranteed x100 multiplier that is the main feature of this new slot games of One touch. You can guarantee sure profit if you hit the bonus round using less than spin unlike other slot bonus round that doesn’t guarantee you a minimum amount of profit. Combining this slot games to Bitcasino slot win boost will give you even more money. I remember seeing this specific slot being feature on the slot boost feature many times. This is tehe momemnt I first played this casino due to the extra boost on the profit.

I hit many times Hand of God bonus round and I never hit more than x100 so far. Also the price of the bonus buy of this slot game is very high. You can consider yourself very lucky for hitting one with less than a hundred spin.
931  Economy / Economics / Re: Bad impact when You carry out Online or Offline Loans on an ongoing basis on: July 01, 2023, 06:07:04 PM
maybe many people are taking loans online or offline for various urgent reasons, but keep in mind that the habit of making loans will only get you entangled with what is called eternal debt and the possibility of getting addicted to making loans online or offline

I knew a lot on my neighborhood that gets loan a lot for their living while while their salary is already not sufficient to repay all their existing loan. They sometimes get extra loan just to pay their existing loan that already have too much interest. This makes this people entangled to eternal debt not because they are addicted but because there's no way out of this mssive loan debts.

Some loan shark abuse this weakness of people and feed on the poor salary with their high ineterest rate loan. I think there's really no solution to this aside from government stepping up and ban all this kind of loans that charge unreasonable interest to people that is financially struggling.

Did you guys see the news for Bruce Brown JR? He just signed with the Indiana Pacers. Gonna be huge mils contract has been in the sign and this is why we usually see a player going off with their former team just after the championship.

Yeah he is cashing in on his run in the playoffs with the Nuggets can't hate on the guy for that.  It's a business from the owners side as well as the players side.  Pacers got a great player.  I think he would have been a great pickup for Miami.  Would fit right in as a do whatever it takes kind of player.

At the end of the day, Players still chased for big bucks especially if they already git the rings since they considered themselves as high value due to their contribution. I really like BBJr because of his good leadership as veteran player. I respect his decision for chasing high pay rate team that can give him more play time due to his current value right now.

Nuggets will have no problem as long as their core players Jokic, Murray and Gordon will be on the team. They are killing the whole season with just 3 main players excelling when other players is on bad game. I'm excited to see how Christian Braun will develop and get more play time due to his effectiveness on the finals. He ismthe Jordan Poole version when GSW gets championship last year except that he is discovered late.
933  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How is your Gambling Pattern Like? on: July 01, 2023, 04:56:45 PM
My betting pattern is quite simple, I will only gamble when I have more money to play with, and that also depends on whether I have enough free time to gamble at that time or not. The reason is that I often experience where I have more money but I don't have time to play, and when I have free time to gamble I don't have real money I can play with it, or in other words the money is already in the list of available money. I will use it for other needs. I'm not going to push myself too hard, because that's not a good thing. For example, I have money but I don't have time, I force myself to play, it will make my work neglected later. Or for example, another example, where I have free time and don't have money and I'm forced to play using the money I have, obviously this is the wrong thing that will make it difficult for me later.

We have to be smart to do the smallest things in gambling, this habit is the most appropriate habit for me personally, and it makes me still gamble without any problems to this day.
For me free time is always my concern when gambling due to my hectic work schedule. Money doesn't need to be huge in order to play because casino offers low minimum bet so that small bankroll player can still enjoy gambling even with small amount of money. I'm always using 10USDT bankroll if I don't have money while I'm bored during my free time. I manage to win huge amount using that small money which proves that you don't need huge bankroll just to win or simply enjoy the game.

You can use the minimum deposit and play slow using games with low minimum bet. Changing currency will help you to decrease further minimum bet since some fiat currency has low minimum bet than normal currency.
934  Economy / Economics / Re: What will you do when you have Financial Freedom? on: July 01, 2023, 04:40:29 PM
I guess no one has really thought about it so deeply,  being financially free  means you can afford anything that money can buy.  Assuming I found myself in such position, honestly I will take a break and really treat myself well because I deserve it and I can afford it now Grin
However, I will keep setting goals for me to achieve because just having money to spend day in day out without any goal can also be alot boring,  reason why someone like Elon Musk still works despite all the money he has.

Financial freedom doesn’t mean you can buy anything that you want but you are less dependent on your work or you are not imprisoned to cycle of financial loop of making salary while your salary is already allocated already to your bills and other fixed expenses that doesn’t give you any extra money for yourself.

I’m currently on financial freedom because I barely touch my salary just to each an expensive dinner because I have investment that generates extra profit while I don’t have much expenses for myself .
935  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is now a good time to buy BNB? on: June 30, 2023, 05:01:10 PM
I'm wondering if now is the good time to buy BNB or should I wait a little bit more? The crypto market is still bearish, so we should expect further pressure against an altcoin like BNB in the short term. Who knows if BNB will reach higher prices in the future? Your input will be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Smiley

I believe this is the best time to purchase BNB because not everyday they will be attack by SEC while their current case is already turn into agreement with the case. The SEC will just not drop all the charges quickly but Binance has a lot of cash to defend themselves in the court long term.

It’s always a good time to buy BNB since they already have their blockchain which BNB is the native token. There’s always a usecase for this token even without their CEX on US market.
936  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Ads for online gambling should be banned. on: June 30, 2023, 10:12:26 AM

If this should be implemented will it affect bitcointalk casinos? As we all know most established and new casinos come to bitcointalk to launch their ANN thread and carry out signature promotion campaigns which can be regarded as ads in a sense. If ads should be banned will their promotion in Bitcointalk also end?


Big NO. I didn't come to read the link, but as what I have understood about these "annoying" gambling ads, they are actually referring to the ads that pops up mostly to any social media platforms. Yes, they are really annoying and minors can actually see it, most especially if a computer is not protected by an app for child safety.
But, bitcointalk forum is a totally different community than the mainstream social media platforms. All of us here are of legal age and there no children roaming around here and the signature ads are exclusively seen only within this community - so I don't think it is somehow connected with the banning of the gambling related ads.
The main focus of this is to ban all gambling related ads in all social media platforms. Also, the article says is only for Australia.


By means of all includes the forum so Bitcointalk forum will be banned on Australia since we are promoting gambling but that doesn’t mean that Bitcointalk will not be available on other country. Country like Russia already banned Bitcointalk to be access by their citizen. I think this same local banned will happened to all Australian users here but the rest of the user that live on other country without restriction can still use the forum.

I don’t know how forum setup about country restrictions though but the Australian government will surely restrict access to the forum when this law was implemented.
937  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The Return Of Terra Luna Classic on: June 30, 2023, 02:42:27 AM
In the month of April, the programmers came up with new idea to relaunched the coin and they call themselves  “Six Samurai." The rebranded name is "Terra Classic"
Six Samurai: Anonymous Developers Seek to Revive Terra Classic Ecosystem

This is the most bullshit idea ever. This project is worst shit show that loss Billion Dollar Marketcap on a single day so why the need to revive this shit crap project while there's a lot of investors lose their money on this worst failure project?

There's a Luna fork active while the only user interested on this revive scam are those user that still clinging on the old tokens and still accumulating on lower price in hope for this revive shit. This is a scam and this 6 samurai shit developer is probably holding bunch of Lunc tokens ready to dump once the hype kicks in again.
938  Economy / Gambling / Re: Loophole in stopping Money Laundering through Wagering on: June 29, 2023, 06:27:10 PM
Technically, it is not a loophole, because there is a chance the criminals trying to launder illicit money will end up losing an important amount to the casino. People who seek to launder try to do it with large enough amounts so the time they use can be justified.

Still, besides all this, I would also assume that the staff of the casino could easily ask for proof of origins of that money, in the case they noticed something strange going on with a particular user. Like some new account depositing much and, playing with high odds and has not completely gone through KYC, for example.

Not instantly casino will ask proof of funds. I think a standard KYC that requires Identity verification is enough for whale players that will deposit huge since casino doesn’t want scared them off. Proof of source of income is only imminent if casino is already have a lead to users account that involves on money laundering.

Money launderer is not dumb enough to bet using same pattern because it can be caught easily by casino security team. Launderer usually play like a normal player since they have a huge bankroll, They can’t be beaten easily by betting on 50% win chance rate bet using small bets. Launderers bet randomly to avoid making a bet pattern. OP suggestion is definitely not a loophole and a dumb ways to launder money.

Di na ako nag tataka kung bakit. Reason? Marami tlga ang natulungan ng pagusbong ng mga game. Si axie talaga pasimuno nyan (yeah, isa ako sa natulungan). More on techie side na rin ang Pilipinas, connected tau dahil sa internet. Marami ng pinoy ang nagiging open sa crypto at di na sila basta pumipili ng game na di play2earn.

I think more on profit side kaya interested ang mga pinoy sa web3 games that time dahil nga sa Axie na sabi mo na nagsimula ng lahat ng hype sa web3 games. Katunayan lang ito sobrang bilis ntin mahumaling sa kahit anong pwedeng pagkakitaan kahit na sobrang laki ng risk at walang sustainability.

Yes madaming nagkapera sa Axie pero mas madaming nalugi lalo na yung mga narecruit lng ng mga kumita sa Axie at naginvest ng million pesos para lanag makasabay at hindi na nabawi ang puhunan. Medyo tumumal na din ang hype sa web3 games globally simula ng proven unsustainable ng Axie.

This is simply an error from the provider, I have experienced it many times. What you can do to fix it is simple, reload the game and it will be working again. Some providers also have similar error when it is like crashed in the middle of the game, we do not need to worry as most providers save our game and it can be reloaded.
I've tried many times until I finally gave up and decided to rest first. I just tried it again and still got the same error as before.

Finally, I decided to opt-in to Boost of the Week - God Hand Feature Buy and wanted to try my luck. But whatever the outcome will be, I won't experience any problems because this is a gamble that can win and can also lose.

So we should just enjoy the game. And hopefully, we can win Grin

And here is what I got from God Hand Grin
