Is there any place even if it's thinly in the world of gambling that doesn't bring more bad luck that the good luck? Like I used to say, lets stop deceiving ourselves, either it's Roulette or other, your bad luck will visit you more than good luck, there is nothing anyone can say to me that will change my mind on this fact that I am spilling out right now, it's the most authentic fact about gambling, even any form of gambling.

Gambling is something I do time to time but it's the smallest place I decide to risk some money on, I don't do more than 50$ for gambling, I don't always expect and yes I do lose a lot but still I feel nothing about it because I don't gamble using 50$ per every single day and I don't have a dream of fortune with gambling, I just do it for fun.

There is no man alive that can keep all your rules OP, it's almost impossible because it's way too much, why not just set a timetable for yourself and set an amount for your gambling days, either you win or you lose you take your leave that day and wait for another gambling day to come, this is the best strategy.

The best rule for a gambling newbie is never come any close to gambling if you have no job, many people may not agree but gambling is not meant for the jobless, there is no way you can control yourself if all you have is a certain money that you saved from your pocket money and you plan to gamble with it, when this is your amount on earth, you won't want to lose the money to be honest.

And it's easier to lose all that money in gambling, can you see what I am talking about? Even if you want to invest your money into any stock or crypto you need a source of income first, there must be something to always run back to if the unexpected happens, but if you have no job and you choose to gamble first, you will go mad.

A less popular crypto exchange can fake it's liquidity, it's just a number and it can be faked easily, also this exchange is not even close to low-rated ones like Coinsbit, this Stormgain is unknown, and probably a scam too, stay away from such exchange, use coinmarketcap link that @ImThour dropped, that's the official link to CMC exchanges list and ranks, and as you can see Stormgain is nowhere to be found, it means out of millions of crypto traders and buyers, only 3-15 people know about Stormgain and that includes the team of the exchange themselves, be very careful.
944  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Cz or the Sec who would you support? on: July 15, 2023, 08:53:34 AM
With the current issue in the crypto world between Cz (Changpeng Zhao) Ceo of binance and the Sec, I support Cz with reasons that binance has done alot to earn it's communities trust,helping millions of users in the crypto ecosystem,and has more durable marketing strategy whereas the Sec is government driven and wants to control everybody.
It's unfair that the sec is suppressing a private cooperation that's helping to grow & build the crypto world, binance is helping everybody including crypto whales and newbies and a fight against binance is against the world.
What's your say on this?

It's nice that Binance is trying so much to win against the SEC and at the same time this is one of the ways to know if truly CZ is clean, I like CZ and I also like the fact that SEC is troubling CZ right now, if truly CZ is fighting for crypto space he will always remain clean, and nothing will implicate him, and so far it's looking like CZ is right on top.

I will like you to understand that Binance exchange is a business company and its also a centralized exchange, we can say that the exchange is fighting for the sake of the people in the crypto space but how will they make money if crypto goes down? So yes they will always do this for their business to keep growing.

It's all business.

Assuming this person claiming to take the Lion's share for owning the account can also claim the Lion's share when they lose the bet, wouldn't that be great? This is what happens between two people when money is involved, if these two owns and runs a company together, this same thing will happen one day and they could go to the lent of hitting each other.

Never mix your money with others money all in the name of running a business, the real person in every persons will reveal only if money is involved, it's a bad idea.

Today we all have smartphones and computers, what would cost you to subscribe for data and start gambling yourself?
946  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you ever felt remorse after gambling? on: July 13, 2023, 07:46:03 AM
Feeling remorse comes after you lose, not before you gamble Grin every gamblers always believe that they will win and they lost money only to end in depression and regrets, there are certain rules to gambling that every gamblers must take very serious.

1. Gamblers must stay away from taking loans or borrowing money for gambling purposes, it makes no sense and you are not even conform to gamble because you have no source of income.

2. Gamblers must stick to a certain amount of percentage for gambling when they feel like gambling, if you are making some money from your job, take a small part of the money to gamble, you are a man, you have a home, you have your life responsibility, gamble as a responsible man.

Even if you lost money you will feel alright still, because you don't use what you can't afford to lose, as a gambler you need to be in a safe position first and that's money management.

Strange, then I am one of a kind, I wonder why I can't even satisfy my needs when I have the money, I remember making my first million in my local currency, I was lacking a lot, I don't eat enough, I wore worn clothes and bad sandals, I don't even give a damn, because my focus was so strong that I confused myself that I had nothing, the money was sitting there and u couldn't take a penny off it, until I found a purpose for the money and today, it helped with my foundation of success.

A strong determination won't interfere with where you are going, even if you are lacking some needs at the moment, this was my story.
948  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If bitcoin according to Satoshi is digital money then why call it investment. on: July 12, 2023, 08:21:18 AM
You can only get the right definition depending on what you are using your Bitcoin for, if you by to make more profit, it's a store of value in your case, if you buy to spend on other things and items it becomes internet money or digital money, you can even call it a scam currency if you bought at the top and it goes way down (Bad Timing), that's your fault though.

As you can see, Bitcoin is anything you can it, this world still have it's freedom of speech right? Bitcoin is fit to be called a digital gold, it created value that's why the name fits, I don't know why some people are even arguing about this topic.

As a Bitcoin adopter, why are you buying? What are you using your Bitcoin for? If you know the answer then..........
949  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How was your first experience with gambling? on: July 12, 2023, 07:17:36 AM
I find it easier to get out of the gambling circle, don't talk for me, talk for yourself, I am not an addict, and even if I gamble continuously in a week it's because I have the money to throw away for that week, I know when to stop and I know when to stay away, the way I reason is to always be in control of everything I get myself involved with.

I have to take 10 rolls on Slots every two days in a week and if I win good amount even on the 2nd trial I stop for that day, it's over and it's time to go home, I know myself better, if I continue I will lose them all, I set some rules for myself and it's better experiment than what I used to do when I was new to gambling.

I started gambling using Dogecoin years ago and I was already in crypto at the time, it was easier to get Dogecoin through faucets online back then so it's almost like I lost nothing when I use the coins to gamble.
950  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are successful gamblers seen as addicts? on: July 12, 2023, 06:13:06 AM
The way smart gamblers think is different from the way normal gambling addict thinks, whether they win or lose it has no bad impact on their lives, that's what creates a professional gambler, they stay safe to avoid ruining their lives and still end up winning.

We could say that engagement in gambling every time is addiction but I have seen professional gamblers who chooses their days in a week for gambling and he said that Thursdays are is lucky days.

If it's not Thursday he is not gambling, professional gamblers are always in control, but the other part who are addicted are in lost, they let their desire decide for them, they lack discipline.

951  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why do 90% of Bettors Lose in Sports Betting in the Long-term? on: July 11, 2023, 08:22:03 AM
Sports bets are way better than every other gambling games on the casino, it's why I prefer sports bets over roulette, also it's more recommendable for someone who loves a specific sport game, they knows about the sport very well and they derive pleasure from tbs sport too, so yes this type of person is fit for the sport gambling, but I do have a problem with gambling in general, even if you win twice or more after losing like right times already (talking from my last gambling experience) you will still lose what you earned unless you stop gambling finally.

Most times, gambling and winning is like you are been lend some money to go and relax and come back when you are ready to pay up, because believe me you will pay back what you won unless you stop gambling, anyone feeling this way?
952  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Crypto another form of gambling? on: July 11, 2023, 07:54:33 AM
If crypto is another form of gambling then I will keep gambling using my investment strategy at least its better to jump into a fresh good project that is promising than to try to beat a casino that has a goal of you losing so that they can make money, there is a big difference between the two.

To me crypto is better called an investment than gambling, you can analysis very well and choose the best projects that will get you rich in few years than chasing lottery tickets with 1% chances of changing your life out of 100%  that's ridiculous and that's what gambling has to offer.

The answer is very clear to see, these two are not on the same league, even those who use 20$ investments of every meme coins they see have a better chance to win than gambling, truth is gambling is the most terrible of them all, I am a gambler by default but I do it with my head and brain not in a dreaming phase, I gamble for fun and I invest more than I gamble.
953  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Motivating gambling addicts to invest in bitcoins. on: July 11, 2023, 06:28:31 AM
Not just Bitcoin but also altcoins too, I am a gambler, I am into mostly Roulette and Slots but I have made much more money from altcoin investments between the 2022 bear market till now, and what I've made from gambling is not even close to half of what I've made from few altcoins so far, I think OP is right, if you can gamble with altcoins you will make more money than gambling but we all like having fun in different ways so I am in no way going to discourage anyone not to gamble, there is money in gambling too if you are lucky.

954  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is more important for crypto users? on: July 11, 2023, 05:54:57 AM
Can you explain me why i need to learned gambling?

Simply put, here only millions of money are managed by asset owners, so where i have no money. In fact, i have ideas about gambling, but I don't have the ability to spend money there.
Can you tell us why you need answers? Must someone tell you to gamble first before you can consider to start gambling? You don't need any advice because there is nothing to learn about gambling, it's far different from crypto trading.

My honest opinion is you don't even need to gamble, if ma y people are talking about gambling stay away from them because gambling is not for everyone, you can be one of those people that are better off gambling.

Gambling is very risky, even HYIP online are safer than gambling, because you can have a good strategy with HYIP, but with gambling there is no strategy that can make you a winner, all you have left is safe gambling, to avoid over spending, that could ruin your life.
955  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Advice when you are going a bit far in gaming and betting on: July 10, 2023, 09:18:22 AM
Once you deposit your monthly salary in the casino, it will turn out to be a habit in the long run and you will regret such habits one day after losing all and nothing left behind.
This is very interesting and it has gone unnoticed, not surprising though. The moment you deposit your whole salary on a casino then you can realize, without any doubt, that you went a bit too far!
Gambling is supposed to be a fun activity and you are supposed to spend some of your salary on such activities. Spending all your money on it isn't a good sign regardless of how sure you are about winning. I would call anyone who does such thing an addict.
A person who's spending his whole salary in gambling is likely an addict indeed. Because if you're just playing to kill time, you'll not spend a significant amount just to sustain this habit. Well, we know it's hard to earn money nowadays plus almost everything is expensive due to inflation. What i'm trying to say is, we need to prioritize the essential things before thinking of leisure time. Gambling is really entertaining and can give us excitement especially if we win. However if you know that you can't follow the set limit because of temptation, then don't ever try to gamble regardless of your reasons on why you want to play. Because even we always say to have a self-control when you're playing, we can't deny that many gamblers can't follow it, easy to be said than done as they say. Well for me it depends on what type of gambler you are because there are still gamblers who are not letting gambling to affect them negatively.
There are other things we can do to kill away time, it's not a must to go on a casino to gamble, for example, I spend time playing video games when I don't have the money to play Slots online, I just want to have fun like we all used to say but I choose to have that fun for free at times and some times I get that fun using my hard earned money, not all but very small percentage.

Getting very friendly with online casino games can be captivating so we need to be careful around online casino games, it's really not a must to gamble, but some people make this a must because they have a goal they want to achieve through gambling.
956  Economy / Economics / Re: Landed properties is the best investment on: July 10, 2023, 08:47:55 AM
Half of the rich people keep continue to swim in fame and wealth because of their occupied landed properties. If you own a land, housing estate you can be sure living great but this wealth are mostly control by political leaders and BD individuals......if you're blessed enough begins to occupy property's that can sure your next generation... In my country Nigeria if you don't have any of this properties forget yourself, you will end up making life mortgage and tenancy. Land never depreciates it keeps buying higher that's why I considered it the best investment. What do you think?

If I don't have a plan I will end up making life mortgage and tenancy? Everybody's story won't be the same, so many successful people have died and some of them don't even give a heck about lands, they still live a good life.

The best investment for some people now is food on their table, they can't even eat twice a day and you are here throwing land investment of people's faces.

It was how some people think that they are on the right path investing money on lands, and things get uglier for them then they start selling those lands just to stay alive.

If you want land you need a well structured life already, I would rather be set for life in my business before buying lands, I have seen a lot.

You can struggle to build a house, but don't forget that you won't eat the walls.

You can struggle to get lands but don't forget that those lands won't start vomiting cash for you a week later.
957  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin: A safe haven in times of economic recession? on: July 10, 2023, 07:03:33 AM
A safe haven? That's a very wrong way to put it OP.

Bitcoin is a very volatile digital asset, it's not recommendable for those who want to store value for some time, if you want to do that I think CBDC is better if it's already functioning in your country, USD stable coins are good too but I can't say that they are completely safe either.

You can store your 30,000$ in Bitcoin right now and in a week time your 30,000$ turn into 27,000$, that means you are down 3,000$, it's better to store money that you are ready to use as investment in Bitcoin only, not a safe haven that can maintain your exact amount of dollar, you can lose some or gain some, that's why it should be treated as an investment asset.

Gamblers are afraid that their personal information will become known to their relatives and everyone will know that they are losing money gambling.

Well for my view on KYC that you raised, I don't think that gamblers who dislike it are doing so because they don't wish their friends or relatives to know about their losses or profit. I think majority of it could be because the cryptocurrency system should be decentralised and everything about it encrypted. For example if playing with bitcoin as a decentralised cryptocurrency, while disclosing the identify behind it. That is the point and I think KYC goes against this principle of decentralisation which is the cardinal principle of cryptocurrency.
Everyone of us have a different perspective about KYC and we need to understand that there are some gamblers that see nothing wrong with KYC when gambling on a casino. KYC is not something we need to agitate on because even though we keep arguing about it, there are people that would always support the need for KYC on every casinos maybe for the reason of money laundry and scam attempt.
I really frown at KYC but what can we do if the casinos we are using start asking for KYC for us to gamble or use there casino.
There is something to be done about this, you have a choice, we all do, it's either you leave online casinos because they ask for KYC or you find a online casino that don't need any KYC to gamble on it's platform.

The difference between using a reputable casino and a new casino is if along the way you are been ask to pass KYC before withdrawal, a part of you will still feel safe because you are a reputable online casino, you will feel like you can't be the first person to pass KYC on the platform.

But imagine if the online casino is a less popular platform, you will start feeling somehow, thinking about what they could do with your information, you will feel unsafe.

Do not run after a less popular casino because of deposit offers or discounts, reputable online casinos will safe you from a lot of drama.
959  Economy / Gambling / Re: Is it nomal for BLACKJACK.FUN to investigate for more than 6 months?(resolved) on: July 09, 2023, 09:05:27 AM
Lucky you, the platform you used cares about it's reputation and they want their name to be heard, someone who don't trust them before will think twice now looking at this solved issue, this is what other new online casinos should learn from, customers with problems fixed will create awareness to others that still on hesitancy to use the gambling platform.

If this is one of those bad gambling platform you can kiss your money good bye, the lesson that should be learned here is to always use a reputation gambling platform all the time, the chances of getting into a problem is always present, and solving the problem could be an issue.

Now the case is solved, do lock this thread and call it a quit.

Reduce poverty? If you are not smart in this crypto space poverty won't be very far from you, I want you to know that whatever price you buy coins and tokens someone else will have to buy from you, you will have to dump on them to get your bag of money.

Bitcoin is not cheap any more so even poor people who can afford small money won't make a life-changing money from Bitcoin investment, so you saying that it's Bitcoin investment will reduce poverty is not correct, Bitcoin was easier to get years ago and now it's a digital Gold because if it's value, you can get some part of a BTC but even 10 times of what you invest can't turn your life around and get you set for life.
