981  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Being Knowledgeable before Bitcoin investment is very Good on: July 10, 2023, 07:20:58 AM
You get smarter by learning, I know about crypto myself and I took the step of wanting to know more and more and it leads to my liking of Bitcoin, no one teach me a thing about Bitcoin, I spent time online doing some other things like ads and click to pay and then I finally found Bitcoin, that's it.

If you are lacking you don't need to find or hope to find someone who will teach you anything, do your own research and you will understand so many things, in this life knowledge holds the key to everything, if seeking for knowledge is your main target I doubt someone like you will ever lack.

Through the learning process there will be some challenges like you feeling like giving up, or losing even some money but that's the price we pay to obtain knowledge, it's just the way it is, nothing in this life comes for free.
982  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why do 90% of Bettors Lose in Sports Betting in the Long-term? on: July 10, 2023, 06:35:06 AM
If sports are something that takes place in an anonymous form, people that bets on them will think that they are been cheated on way or the other, I don't even want to know why 90% of bettors lose in sports betting, it happens in every games of luck out there, sports are game of luck take it or leave it, even if you are supporting the strongest team, the future remains unknown to you, this is how powerful the maker of heaven and earth is, always remember HE that knows what will happen in the next hour days and years, no human have this ability, and this makes even our lives a game like, because we don't know who will live to see tomorrow.

Gambling is not something you should be in consistency about, it's not something you should keep working on like a project, it's a game a luck and you need to treat it like a game of luck.

Meaning, you should not expect anything life-changing from it, the possibility of losing all your cash is very high and that's why you need to throw away small money and treat it as having some fun.

Gambling can never be my source of income or something that I get so serious with like most people used to.

He is one of the few politicians that I could vote for if I were a US citizen, imagine someone like him getting elected in 2024 I am very sure that it will be bullish for Bitcoin and crypto, and some useless laws on crypto will be canceled for the next few years that he will be the president, I hope the election works in favor of crypto because I still believe that the U.S as a country have a big role to play in crypto adoption.
984  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: My personal savings now I will invest in Bitcoin on: July 09, 2023, 03:15:18 PM
Invest what you can afford to lose, that's all I can advise you, personal savings is not enough honestly, I believe that you need an emergency fund aside too because if you keep investing your hard-earned money and some other emergency comes up you could be left with no choice but to sell some of your assets, someone who want to be a successful investor must be prepared for emergencies also, so that you can invest in peace and turn your dream into reality.

Believe me, many things will try to stop you once you have the determination to invest for a better future, you need to be full prepared.
985  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you blame someone for your gambling losses? on: July 09, 2023, 02:42:44 PM
You carry your cash to invest into gambling and you lose everything how possible it is for you to find someone to blame? This makes no sense, you are the problem of yourself, if you are not ready to lose a certain amount of money do not use them to gamble, if you want a good life for yourself stay away from gambling because gambling will ruin you if you plan to have a good life using gambling, plan your future off gambling and only gamble if you have spare money.

If you lose your money to gambling it's your fault and if you blame someone else it shows how the son of a loser you are, not only in gambling, you have a greater problem because where ever you fail in life you won't be able to face your problem and learn, you will always find someone to.blame and you will always be a loser.
986  Economy / Gambling / Re: Challenge One Million Dice Bets with Profit every week. on: July 09, 2023, 01:57:36 PM
You claimed you learn but you don't regret, how is that possible? From your expressions, I figure out that you are a gambling addict, you said it's in the blood, something you can't do without, so if you lose money you learn? Without regrets?

Are you that using a very chunky amount of dollars to gamble? Because I am confused, your other topic says you are willing to put gambling behind you and leave for good, isn't that some regrets? You are pained that you have lost too much to gambling, that's why you are determined to quit. As you can see, one can't happen without the other, pain comes first before learning, if it's not painful what is there to learn about? Now you will be more careful when gambling right?

Gambling has become one of the first main focus of many people and yet majority of them are still looking for that lucky day till date, the lottery ticket that's base on luck, something that may never happen till your last day on earth, I don't like the sound of it, I would rather spend my time and energy on something that requires time and energy to get a positive result out of them than something that depends completely on luck.
987  Economy / Gambling / Re: Is it nomal for BLACKJACK.FUN to investigate for more than 6 months? on: July 07, 2023, 06:19:38 AM
Are you going to learn from your mistake or you are going to keep complaining? You did something wrong that's why they have to investigate and it's not even handled by the casino team themselves.

Lock this thread and wait for that 6 months first before you continue to complain, if I ask you want you did wrong I'm sure I won't get any answer, can you be bold enough to tell us what you did wrong? Others can learn from your mistake.

When next you plan to do something unusual, make sure you read the casino ToS first, some have everything they don't want their customers to do in their ToS, this is why it's better to spend time on the ToS first.
 
988  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why are you not hodling on: July 06, 2023, 09:01:21 AM
I am able to invest in Bitcoin and some other coins because I have enough money to run my family and solve other problems, I don't even get worried when market is going the opposite direction, I just take advantage of any market conditions without any worries.

If you have problems that needs to be fixed you won't even remember to invest, I mean investment won't even come to your mind at all, holding is easy for those that are making good amount of money for themselves,  a successful holder wannabe must have other source of income, this is very important, work for the your crypto portfolio to have a better future, there is nothing bad about this.

It's not easy to become a Bitcoin and crypto holder and that's because you are making less money and you are lacking in some areas of your life, I don't see how a better future will come if we don't work hard for our crypto portfolio.
989  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I sold the altcoins and invested in Bitcoin" on: July 06, 2023, 08:04:54 AM
That's not bad but it's surely a slower process of making money, to make money in the crypto space is not about Bitcoin only, you need to spread out your money and build a solid portfolio to maximize your gain, with 5000$ investment you can make 150,000$ with ease, someone I know use 2,500$ to net 130,000$ in 2021, he split the 2,500$ in 25 different altcoins and some fine, like 10x and few like three did over 100x and more, all these coins are altcoins.

You should invest in Bitcoin but make sure you have solid altcoins in your portfolio, that's where you will make the craziest return of investment, not from Bitcoin, I always expect nothing less than 1500% gain from Bitcoin, x3, x4, x5, or x6, but different in altcoins, you will see easy x10, x20, x50, x100 in altcoins.
990  Economy / Gambling / Re: What other gambling sites offers free bitcoins like freebitco on: July 06, 2023, 07:08:35 AM
It is a waste of your time, I would rather spend time on faucets that target new crypto coins than Bitcoin because it's all about quantities of the coins you are been given per hour, Bitcoin is very costly now and that's why the amount they give per hour is very small, if Bitcoin is very cheap the amount will be high.

There was a time where Freebitco will give 0.00001000 BTC per hour and the chances of getting 10000 sats in lucky draw is very high but that lucky chances was high then because the value of Bitcoin was never even 10,000$.

If I have to find a faucet now, it will be for coins that are less costly and they have the chance of adding value to price in future, for example Litecoin and XRP, and even XEC.
991  Economy / Gambling / Re: Impossible KYC Requirements - Stake.com - Withholding $6000 USD on: July 06, 2023, 06:26:38 AM
All I have experienced about online casinos is if you have one time did something unusual using the platform it will come back to you when you least expected, I have a smartphone that runs two sim card at once and there was a time when I switch my data connection to SIM-2 which is a different internet provider and the casino noticed that I use a new location plus a new IP address, the funny thing was that they don't block me at that moment, it was after few weeks that I am ready to withdraw some money off the casino that they claimed that I need to prove that I own the account.

I was just luck that the amount on the casino is very small as I don't always gamble with large amount of money and that's the third won on the casino, I end up forgetting about the money and leave, since then I have learned to never change operating location and even up address.

This shouldn't be an issue at all but the casinos can make an issue out of those little things we believed shouldn't be a problem, it's like they always find something to use as an excuse against their customers.
992  Economy / Gambling / Re: Did BC Change the Algo??? on: July 05, 2023, 09:47:22 AM
We've discussed something like this few times before, Op there is no way to detect if an online casino rigged its games, you could try but in the end it leads to a dead end, all we have to rely on is the reputation of the online casino itself, it's why I tell friends that loves gambling to avoid sticking with a gambling casino if all they keep getting is losses non-stop, feel free to move to other casino and try your luck, I can guarantee you that you will win more on one than the other and also if you plan to be a good gambler you need to always gamble responsibly, because losses will keep knocking on your door more than winning.

To lose money is normal in a gambler's life so it's better to be safe out there, play your games wisely and expect more losses than you will win, always gamble with money you can afford to lose, rigged casino or not, losing is inevitable.
993  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: People are giving too much importance to exchanges on: July 05, 2023, 09:04:36 AM
The p2p in exchange is very good to use.
The "P2P" in usual exchanges is a gimmick. There very much exists an intermediary in CEX like Binance, and as usual, it lies about being P2P exchange. If it was actually peer-to-peer, it wouldn't require you to create an account, give KYC etc. For truly peer-to-peer exchange, look on Bisq.

Sam Bankmanfried or whatever his name is failed many but he is not CZ, or Brain Armstrong, this is the type of excuse you will be hearing from people
Lol. You can't believe how accurate this feels. I heard like, quite the exact same words from a friend of mine.  Tongue
Yes this is the exact same feeling I have with Binance exchange, it's not real peer-to-peer exchange, it's a centralized exchange that offers a centralized peer-to-peer service because they get hold of all user's KYC, but I have never lost money to scammers using Binance p2p service, they come in between and always solve the problem, I have meet like three scammers trying to rob me on the exchange but none was successful for the scammers, I have past stories with some peer to peer services before and I lost money to scammers.

994  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What happens to banned addresses? on: July 05, 2023, 08:28:30 AM
Please refer to me where do you read about banned or blacklisted address?

AFAIK there's no such banned or blacklisted address, but only burn address. Burn address is an address where no one has the private key, so it's mean no one can move the coins, not the coins can't be moved.

If there's such program or system to not allow any address to move or spend the coins, it's mean Bitcoin isn't decentralized anymore.
You are absolutely right, ban addresses or blacklisted addresses are something you don't want to get involved with, it means that there is a red alarm on the address and any funds leaving that address is illegal, so all other centralized exchanges or platforms will sit on the assets if you send to their platform, they will seize it and you ain't getting it back.

Bitcoin is decentralized like you said, but if you stole the Bitcoin and it's known by the authority that the Bitcoin is not rightfully yours your address will be painted red (ban or blacklisted) and all those places where you can sell your bitcoin will be alerted, once you send the Bitcoin to their own Bitcoin address you are caught already, maybe you already passed KYc on the exchange? Then your identity is compromised.

Just sit down and have some tea, patiently wait for your arrest.
995  Economy / Gambling / Re: won cash x drop but no prize?? on: July 05, 2023, 07:21:02 AM
Won this a few weeks ago and haven't received anything. I tried to contact support from the casino I won it at but they don't reply. My VIP host said to contact the game provider but they too didn't reply, not even on twitter.

Anyone know how these contests work? Like shouldn't they just airdrop whatever into the wallet that played the game which won the prize? I shouldn't have to do anything right?

Kind of odd how they promote these competitions so much then when someone wins something they don't even get anything and no one is willing to help them...


Next time be more opened, what type of game and which online gambling platform you use? This is very important and you will be able to get accurate answers from members on the forum, maybe you use a scam gambling platform or a gambling platform that already have a bad reputation? I don't know why people use unpopular platforms first before they ask for others opinion, you could be saved few times already if you share your plan on this forum, this is one lesson I learnt the hardest way and since that time I am very careful, even as a Full member on this forum I still ask questions that is expected from a junior member, because I don't want to be an example of sorry case when I messed things up already.

If people aren't talking about a gambling platform do not use it, if people are not promoting a gambling platform just stay away, there are over 5 different gambling platforms on this forum that are top notch when it comes to online casino, you don't need anything else.
996  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Lotteries and possibility vs. probability on: July 04, 2023, 02:47:20 PM
It is something I have already been aware of, people who play lotteries, specially those that offer huge amounts of money, are not really aware of the probability of winning but they know there is a minimal chance of it.

On the other hand, I think differently on the national lotteries because I like the idea of those funds being used to improve the living conditions in the country. Here we do not have those, all lotteries as privately held and it would take a change in the government so the people could trust more public money on the administration.

In the end, dreaming is free but playing the lottery is not.
They know that there is a minimal chance of winning and yet they proceed, well not all of they are in their liberty form of sanity, they don't really think about the aftermath, the present mind is on winning, if you are planning something out and you don't think about the disadvantages then you are blindly doing it,

Some people feels special when gambling, they believe that their small wins are limiting their chances to become the next millionaire and they go pull out high amount of money to gamble that's when they will lose everything and start to hate gambling.

Only 10 people out of millions make the best gains from gambling, this shows that a huge number of people always lose money to gambling, when the chances are too slim you need to play your game rightfully, to avoid getting burnt.

I've stored my recovery seed in a Gmail account I created years ago and someone somehow gets my password and stole all my Bitcoin, at the time I lack some knowledge about keeping recovery seed and that old Gmail had a weak password too, I also don't use or activate 2Fa authentication too, after I lost the Bitcoin I started researching on where I did things wrong and I learnt that recovery seed are not to be kept online, they are safer offline.

Not even any cloud storage are safe for your recovery seeds, there are some stories of peole losing their Bitcoin when few cloud storage platforms got hacked, for example 4shared and others.
998  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Who Buys Bitcoin When The Price is 100k$? on: July 04, 2023, 09:24:15 AM
I had a talk about Bitcoin with my brother two days ago, he said that he have interest in buying Bitcoin but the price is dropping, he asked me how lower will Bitcoin go? I told him that I don't know and he said that when it starts rising again he will buy, you see, no one wants to buy Bitcoin when it's dumping, many people still prefer to buy when the FOMO is back in the market, no wonder lots of money swim into crypto when the bulls are back and the truth is some people are still able to make money after buying at high price, but they won't make a lot compare to those that bought at lower prices, it seems that higher price and fomo gives some people the confidence to buy more than buying at lows because they fear it could go lower.
999  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Quit gamble! Easy or Hard? Let's talk. on: July 04, 2023, 08:18:05 AM
If you hate gambling that's your decision but I can't figure out why you decide to create a topic on this, are you trying to change the mind of many others? It seems you gamble with the money that you shouldn't have use and you lost it, just accept your defeat and be humble about it, you don't need to hate.

After all no one is forcing you to gamble, it's your own decision, instead of hating it's wiser to figure out what you did wrong, do you even think about the possibility? Next time use what you can afford to lose, your irresponsible way of gambling is what leads to your hate for gambling.

Gambling with what you can afford to lose won't hurt you or makes you become a useless person, have it in mind that there is a higher chance you will lose the money, so limit your amount of money to what you can afford to lose.
1000  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Gospel Preachers: Is Bitcoin the Last Currency in the World? on: July 03, 2023, 10:29:13 AM
You might not agree to my own way of thinking things through but I believe that everything I am about to say are not wrong...

We have wars because of religions, and it's the fastest way to controlling the audience, that's why the culture of every countries are better if we go deep into the differences, I will like to use my country as an example if you aren't a Muslim here you are a total alien, you are the one that the devils will reject and even the heavens won't accept, those Muslims make it look so.

The Christians are also doing the same thing, like you are unloved if you are not a Christian, and the hate between these two sparks a lot of civil wars and it affects the great grand children too, so my answer to OPs is that anything that has something to do with money through religion I don't believe in it.

Some people are claimed to be prophet of God and great seers on Youtube are calling coins like Shiba inu the ultimate and last currency for humanity and that those who buy Shiba in 2022 will become the millionaires of tomorrow, like this is so disgusting.

There are now too many fake Gospel preachers in the world today, I have read my Bible and hardly have I seen one that walk in the ways of Jesus Christ, they appear to do so but they aren't.
