I don't think that there's this kind of special testing. You can folllow these projects repos and github to see how they're doing with the development and their source codes are posted there so you can check and test it on your own.
But this is from the perspective of a non-blockchain tester, maybe someone will come by and tells his/her experience if there is coming from a real tester.

Okay, I got that. At least, they should know that in gambling, they must have luck which they can not always have it. If they can know that, I guess that they will be careful to gamble. But unfortunately, many gamblers chasing their luck until they spend more money, and some of them forget about luck. Let say he has luck in one strategy or method, so that will make him get winning. But in the next chance, although he uses the other strategies if the luck leaves him, the result will lose some money. And that can make him try with the other strategy.
Yes, what you have followed up is correct and I do agree that in gambling there's luck but as I've said don't think that it's the main requirement when you gamble because it is not.
The case here is that they are not chasing their luck but they are chasing their losses and wanting to retrieve it back. Because it's impossible to know when your luck will come if you are not winning at all.

There are casinos that ask for documents if they feel that something is wrong with your account and play history. This is applied for special cases and I've seen some gamblers that actually experienced this and told their experiences before because they have found trouble withdrawing their funds.
That's a different matter, the team needs KYC documents to prove ownership of the account or return the account to the original user if the report is hacked. In the gambling platform, KYC documents must not be requested unless the new gambling platform requires KYC then that is suspicion.
Yes, as I said it's for special cases. I have seen them post those problems here and disappointed that they were asked for it.
This will make others aware that if their account is being taken as a special case then they have to obey so that they'll be responded very well and clear and, they won't be mislead/misquoted.

3.      Stay away from casinos who requires KYC documents.

No, it's not a good strategy if you have limited funds I've tried that many times in the past and I always ended up in a losing side, you sometimes win but most of the time you lose, a lot of people have experimented on this strategy and depends on your control and luck you can only extend your playing time but winning I don't think so.
Chance of losing is high and winning is just a tiny piece of chance whenever you do this. And if someone keeps on trying this and keeps on doubling the amount which is known as martingale.
The time that he win then that's already the call and sign that he should stop and keep the profit that he took from that win and don't repeat the cycle.

No matter what the strategy is, if you don't have luck, you will not have a chance to win the games. Even if someone is trying to double the amount, that will not work because we don't know if we will have luck or not, and we don't know what will come out at the end of the game. And yes, if he can win, then that will be the time to quit gambling as soon as possible before it is too late to realize.
You are overrating luck. Luck is there as is but don't overrate it and tell that whichever you use, you won't win. That's simply wrong, let's assume that everyone has their own time to become lucky but don't ignore the strategies that gamblers do.
Experience is building these strategies but if you don't feel crediting it and it's not effective on your part, that's ok.

It's a tactic that they are bringing up to their advertising so that investors will buy up and the others who have been following their project. I guess this happens everywhere that they are sounding it good just for the sake of the sale and, expect that there will more of them very soon.
This is what every investor needs to understand that everything must be considered if the project is truthful, honest and genuine.
Deception still accompanies some new projects in the cryptocurrency market.  but I think that every investor should be a little smarter and if there is any statement from the team about listing on a specific exchange, then this information should always be checked.  The fact is that the administration of any rating exchange always makes an announcement about the listing of certain coins.
Investors are becoming brighter these days and starting to notice this kind of tactic that these projects are doing. They wouldn't be confident until they see it actually being listed to those beautiful exchanges.
But as long as they are not showing any evidence that they will be there, it's a good choice to ignore them until they finally did it. A simple solution yet in this kind of investing, investors think that whoever invests first becomes the wisest and luckiest.

Settle that feeling of worry, it won't help you in these times. Let the market decide and show its full potential while we are experiencing this pandemic. The first few months of the pandemic, this has affected the crypto market and we saw that bitcoin plummet, and everyone shared the same thought of it affecting all the markets. But as time goes by, you will notice how bitcoin becomes stable and increasingly a bit day by day and this can also be one of the effects that this pandemic shares.

9769  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: CORONAVIRUS IMPACT ON SPORTS GAMBLING on: April 27, 2020, 11:10:18 AM
Esport events are gaining in popularity due to the fictitious Coronavirus
Before the corona outbreak, esports is already gaining traction. And the one that made the impact to this industry is because of the huge prize pool of Dota 2.
How did it happened? because the sales from their battle pass, there's a share that will go to the prize pool and that's very effective because a lot of players supported it.
Dota2 took the history for having the highest prize pool in E-sport events but there is worth to mention tournaments too like League of Legends and Counter Strike that is also having yearly world tournament.
But unfortunately, because of the pandemic it is near impossible to see tournaments this year, there have been talks that the tournament will be home-based but before you do that there are some factors that the organizers should consider like the internet, and computer reliability.
Yes, that two other esports are worth including too. Actually, they're part of this big industry and there are other games that haven't been played by other gamers.
No, you are wrong. Tournaments are made to happen online and they're still good as the lan tournaments and when we say tournaments, it doesn't mean that it should only be conducted physically or live/lan. This is one of the good things in esports because it's very flexible in such situations.

9771  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The current level of security in PoS. on: April 26, 2020, 02:20:31 PM
I haven't heard that there's an attack with an altcoin with PoS consensus. There's this old thread that I have read related to this topic(https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4089785.0) and I think I have to quote the one post there.

Attacking a PoW network is not cheap, and one might end up spending more than he can steal.

The PoS algorithm needs better protection as it is cheaper to attack. The deposits of the validities serve as collateral, and if they go against the rules and create an invalid block, they will lose their deposit. Both are pretty much safe to be used.

But the PoS system still has the upper hand due to the collateral involved.
9772  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: May I buy Bitcoin & Ethereum now? Or I am late? on: April 26, 2020, 11:57:56 AM
Bitcoin hit $10k many times and also last year after the bear market of 2018. Bitcoin is the most beneficial for newbies but I will not stop you buying Ethereum. As for buying, you can buy now or it's your choice to wait until it gets high first and then say that it's expensive enough for you to buy.
Buy while it's under $10k.

9774  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why most gamblers can never hold onto big bag? on: April 26, 2020, 10:25:12 AM
That's a sad story. Have you asked your friend how did he ended up losing all of it within a day?
I don't know, nor I did ask. He used to share me his winnings and balance all the time. Yesterday, he lost everything, at a row. It's really sad. It was a huge amount, losing such a fund within one day is a big one. I never did such gamble at a row, never won such huge amount nor lost.
We have the same feeling and if it happens to me, I'd definitely feel bad and sad if I lost most of the winnings that I've got within the long run that I've been winning.
I don't gamble with that kind of style but your friend must be thinking of something that pushed him to let it lose easily.
9775  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Looking for best investors? on: April 26, 2020, 09:58:11 AM
The fact is every smart investors are on top exchanges as either a full time trader or part time traders, once a new IEO opportunity arise they will be there to grab the chance, that's why IEO became ease success on top exchanges, looking for the best investors? Go top Exchanges.. Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy
Is this a reminder to the existing projects or those that are having their presale? It's no doubt that most investors are on the top exchanges because of the service that it brings to them. The customer supports are very much reliable and the ease of trading is there.
Deposits and withdrawals are pretty much not a problem with those exchanges that's why they are prioritizing the top exchanges and choose it as their place to stay.
9776  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is Covid-19 a cause for BTC price drops? on: April 25, 2020, 03:06:56 PM
Bitcoin has already recovered from the dump, it was just the an instant reaction that resulted a dump, but that was only cause by the panic, and those who bought at that price are now so lucky to sell almost double of the price they accumulated.
Panic of everyone who's been in a bad situation being in the midst of lockdowns. Selling at the same time made bitcoin price tanked but nothing to worry with that because bitcoin has always been quick in recovery.

Actually, even if bitcoin will end at $7k+, we can still say that 2020 is not a bad year for bitcoin considering we have the pandemic this year.
We're on the 2nd quarter so more to come for this year and it's inappropriate to have a verdict that this year is good enough or not.
9777  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why most gamblers can never hold onto big bag? on: April 25, 2020, 02:30:10 PM
That's a sad story. Have you asked your friend how did he ended up losing all of it within a day? I guess it's another emotional scenario which he was triggered by the losses that he made and then didn't care anymore with the remaining profit that he made.
In short, he played YOLO.
9778  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Inoue vs Casimero Bantamweight Unification Fight on: April 25, 2020, 01:51:47 PM

This is expected.
No mass gathering shall be prohibited in these times so to us, fans of boxing whether you are a fan of Casimero or Inoue. This is very much understandable. I don't think that's what Arum is thinking.

What I am expecting is that this fight will be move to another schedule but what I read here is that its off for now, so there is no assurance when they will fight and even if the pandemic is over, Arum still cannot assume this will push through.
That's also what I'm thinking because they don't have a choice. The covid-19 is still pushing through for most countries and that's why rescheduling for this match is expected.
But if Arum decides to postpone this match and tells that it won't happen anymore, many fans will be disappointed.

Casimero unification bout with Inoue off, Arum plans new fight for Filipino

Quote
“Unfortunately, I would say no,” Arum said of the chances Casimero-Inoue happening the moment the COVID-19 pandemic gets contained.
Looks like what we have anticipated will not gonna happen anytime soon.. Arum seems closing the possibility that they will fight soon.
Very bad, this pandemic has killed the entertainment that we all are waiting, maybe Arum realizes that Inoue would lose in this fight?
This is expected.

It's like the people that has been telling it before that "buy the rumor, sell the news".
If you have just bought ethereum when it has reached the bottom of $80, you're already in the profit now regardless of the ETH 2.0 update. You can happily sell without even the need wait for that update.
