I think your companies list is a little outdated. I believe both Steam, and Wikipedia suspended Bitcoin payments years ago. There's probably others on that list that have pulled support for it. The thing is, we aren't quite at the stage where it makes sense for all companies to adopt it. Since, the volatility creates an additional problem for many businesses, and then it's the cost of implementing a system to accept Bitcoin as well as hire staff that have the knowledge to help with any Bitcoin related issues.
It's not a bad thing that we aren't quite there yet. We probably won't be there for a while. As long as we have volatility, we'll have the news having a melt down, and companies pulling support or just not adopting it in the first place.
Sure some of them might be outdated but it does suggest bitcoin isn't just something that non liked ever OR not gonna like again in the future! Though not all in the list but the weightage of acceptance is still higher as compared to other types of assets. The whole point is bitcoin literally gone far in very short period of time and such bearish trends will come and go. We have experienced this all the time and this is a message for the people who are always scared about the market downfall and think it's dead end. Specifically media! I certainly don’t think bitcoin is coming to any ends. Sure there is a shit ton of turmoil going on right now in both bitcoin and the cryptocurrency landscape, but we are still in the “early innings” when it comes to cryptocurrency adoption. We’ve got a long ways to go before ANYTHING is decided. One thing I’m sure of, while one of few, is that bitcoin is anything but dead.
Yes it is going to play biggest innings yet. If you look at the old analysis then "Bitcoin is Dead" has been used more than 400 times until now. Like it was literally proclaimed by people and various media and that is the thing we do not want from us. Now I know that we are on the forum where most of us "Trust in the Bitcoin", however, for those who think Bitcoin is dead then do read following article and also checkout the analysis about how many times it was dead and yet we are using it. Lol.zSource: Bitcoin is Dead (Again)Summary
FTX is dead. Crypto is not. Don't confuse the two. Reports of Bitcoin's death have been greatly exaggerated.
Search interest in "Bitcoin is Dead" has spiked following the collapse of FTX. History tells us we're close to a bottom.
On-chain metrics look phenomenal. Non-zero addresses are approaching 44 million and exchange supply is at a two year low. More to follow here: Bitcoin is Dead (Again) |

Ok so I am not really into trading but if this is right technical analysis then I just hope it is to be true. At least it will break the panic situations for the people around us and we can get back to the normal life. Lolz. For me bitcoin price do not matter as long as we can have it circulated for its current value.
Moreover, I am happy with the bearish market as we can keep buying more and more for time being. Anyways, halving is also coming next year and we can’t deny the fact that it’s gonna have severe affect as well.

Do you think that launchpad platforms and projects will return soon? We are already in a bear market and very soon new projects will start using launchpads again, I am looking into seedify at the moment but I want to ask the audience, do you think this is a good idea or it's over for IDO, IGO and other?
Not worth it even if they come back again. I am already seeing that there are zero to no interest among the community to invest into the projects in their initial investment strategies. Those were literally the old golden days when you used to put some money into the project by looking at their roadmaps and believing that they will run and return on investment. The problem is, they started scamming trend soon after they realize they can make handsome amount of money right after they launch. Plus they got the security of anonymous blockchain layer and thus nobody ever knew to whom we are sending the money what coins exactly we are getting back. This is definitely worst way to go with it now and it's better to keep calm and invest into projects which have had hard time in their start ups but now growing with realistic approach. |

That depends on how you buy it and how you save it. One should not be buying the bitcoin itself if they don't understand the safe keeping of bitcoin in the wallets. Whether it is hardware wallet or software wallet, I think the concept behind it remains the same - safety of coins, your own keys, your own coins! If so, then even altcoins can follow the same path. Considering the fact that they are now part of the system anyways, we can not do anything about them. To adopt them as well one can always store them on wallet with private keys. If not then there are plenty of coins to work with. Moving furthermore if there are none options then there is always bitcoin for our help.  |

Lately, there seems lot of fearful reactions from the people about Bitcoin and how it could come to an end considering the current bear market. Literally media is taking it too seriously and showing the bitcoin as villain of the movie that too without any facts. If to date, any media really wants to understand in which direction the bitcoin is moving then they should really travel the world and understand how bitcoin is getting "percolated" in the world's tiniest systems and flourishing everywhere. "My sole point of creating this thread is to send out positive vibe amongst the forum members, not to worry about the market situation because the picture is far bigger than what we think."Starting with, Who accepts bitcoin? we can actually see the bitcoin's real use case and how it is already on the market just like other assets/currencies.

Cities & Countries with interest (but not limited to . . ) So I came across one article from investopedia, where they have mentioned how bitcoin is getting from door to door, from city to city and we are able to see its physical presence whether via ATM's or Merchants accepting the same.  - San Francisco - There are 437 bitcoin ATMs in the Bay Area, including 65 in the city of San Francisco itself
- Vancouver - the world's first bitcoin ATM began operations at Waves Coffee House on October 29, 2013, in downtown Vancouver. 50+ merchants and 221 bitcoin friendly locations.
- Amsterdam - Amsterdam is home to mining hardware maker Bitfury and the European headquarters of payment service provider BitPay. More than half dozen Bitcoin ATM, 40+ merchants
- Ljubljana, Slovenia - Ljubljana has eleven bitcoin ATMs in the city and surrounding areas, and roughly 200 merchants who say they accept bitcoin
- Tel Aviv - Nineteen merchants accepting bitcoin and seven bitcoin ATMs
- Portsmouth, New Hampshire - Dubbed "bitcoin village" by local residents, the downtown area is home to about a dozen crypto-friendly businesses, including the Seacoast Repertory Theatre and the Free State Bitcoin Shoppe. It has 21+ Bitcoin ATM's
- Miami, Florida - 651 bitcoin ATMs and tellers. The city's government is seeking to attract blockchain businesses to their city, and Mayor Francis Suarez has proposed investing city funds in bitcoin and even launching a municipal cryptocurrency.
- El Zonte, El Salvador - "Bitcoin Beach," with more than thousands Bitcoin ATM. Government directly involved with bitcoin adoption itself.
- New York - New York is also a major hub for crypto startups and media companies, such as CoinDesk, Decrypt, and CoinTelegraph, as well as home to Consensus, one of the largest annual events in the crypto industry.
- London - 50 bitcoin ATMs, and about the same number of merchants
I am not just making a list here by grabbing it from here and there but these are actual results of bitcoin in use. If people still gonna argue about bitcoin's prices, its trust based on some failed exchange or few bad set backs then I think they have not understood the bitcoin really well. Bitcoin can still be used on mega level with no price in consideration. The price will automatically follow Bitcoin once the use keep growing all the time. The price manipulation that we are seeing in the market is due to it's use just as trading instrument where millionaire and billionaires are taking it too personally and trading the volume in shorting the market.
We are still at good terms if see the data above. Moreover, if we see the most recent data then actual figures are really different, and could actually let us know exact bitcoin adoption. Community, go ahead and make some positive noise on this thread. Post your local region stories and show them we are strong and we are getting stronger day by day in bitcoin adoption.

"Congratulations! you have won the ninth prize of 0.00040615 BTC in the weekly lottery draw at FreeBitco.in!"
Nice email to get!
Dang! Congratulation mate. Its been couple of years now and I am still awaiting for such email. All I am getting is that free spin email everyday just because I am active user. Come on, I really need to push myself towards the luck factor and get my best suit while clicking the buy lottery tickets next time. Anyways, how much tickets you had to win that place? Did you made profit or you ended up wagering more than this amount. I think if you have won it then you must be playing along a lot on freebitcoin. You have good opportunity to get nice free interest on this amount considering it's above minimum requirement. It's been long time though no one has published their $200 winnings from Free Roll!! |

For the moment, Roobet is one of the only sites that you need to fill in some personal information when your register. But in the end, a lot of casinos require KYC when you want to withdraw some money (even small amounts). I have needed to complete a full KYC to withdraw 0.01 BTC.
This is a very sensitive topic. Some gamblers have no issues providing their KYC to Roobet like you since they trust them because of their proven reliability over time, but some gamblers aren't willing to provide any form of KYC regardless of whether they like the site or not. What I truly find weird here is the requirement for you to complete full KYC for just 0.01 BTC. This doesn't really make a lot of sense. Did they suspect you regarding something? Can you clarify? Could be case of using VPN due to restricted country or something. Moreover, doing KYC these days is easier than going into physical casino and exposing our faces straight to the public and get recorded on CCTV. If they asking it then it could be for internal verification about Geo location and stuff. Anyways they will have to do KYC verifications once they reach above the restricted limit of withdrawal and gambling. There are really only few casino’s now a days on whom we can trust and submit the KYC documents. I think Roobet is one of them and definitely within top 5. |

I think bc game is always skeptical about their website and how they approach towards their users. I don’t know how but BC games has one of the highest investment in marketing and promoting their website. I could at least see one to two ads here and there all the time. Specially they are highly active in the paid to sites and keep getting users registered from those sites.
I am not sure how fair or true this information is but an official must attend to this so that fellow members can understand the reality and gravity of the matter.
Obviously clarity is prime thing when you play on online casino websites.

Amazing, so we are standing on the same opinion that community is actually getting benefited with the project like SweatCoin. Because I am also receiving good amount of money everyday just by walking. After buying their premium membership it double or tripled actually. I mean this is literally free-free app to use and yet you get something out of it all the time. It’s similar next free lunch box thing after freebitcoin Website. :-D I never encountered any other project like this from the perspective of altcoin project. This is real Gem for the athletes and daily runner 🏃♀️ for sure.  |

You know there is one saying, “the greatest lesson is learnt by one time life experience”. This is what happening right now in the market. Everyone who used to be confident about their assets in the hands of middle entity like exchangers, financial firms and escrows would understand how wrong they were in the first place.
This is also disproving the concept of middle entity getting involved into bitcoin transactions.
I mean what was dreamt as decentralised and peer to peer system actually got turned into centralised system due to increased use of Exchangers.
Isn’t that is common sense that everyone lost in the greed ?

I don’t really follow alts but considering the Sweatcoins project and there on going buzz I kinda started liking this project a lot. I am seeing good use case of their app which is based upon Sports activity. I also know that there are many such apps available out there and very first utility came into effect from NIKE brand way before crypto boom. They had those marathons, donations, the more you sweat the more you get back from their brand in terms of goodies, vouchers etc. Similar strategies is now built by Sweatcoins. I am trying out the app since 1 and half month. I am not sure but it seems really good. I don’t even have to do anything except run, walk, do my daily activities and I am getting paid just like that. It’s amazing to see the progress. There is also their own shop where you can change the Sweatcoins and buy the real stuff. You can shop the coupons, discounts on well known brands. Every week they have promotions for real amazon vouchers, airbnb and more!   I am also amused that they have good number of user base whose actively participating in every months challenge all the time. That is definitely good sign in the long run. In addition to this they have the coin listed on various exchanges with nice volume. I think that makes it one of the worthy project out of thousands of unwanted ones. Do you see potential in such projects? |

Yup, dice is the life saver. However if you play on casino like Roobet then you will find different such games which can give you lot of money back to save yourself getting out of the casino due to no cash.  Like I am always trying my luck on mines, towers, crash, dices and making my way up to the good returns. Towers is the deadliest game for me and it could give you huge bucks in short clicks! In my opinion the best technique is to play the game which you love the most and is always friendly when you play. It should be giver and not the taker one. Obviously it's algorithm, so be cautious and have more fun. |

@uneng Happened with me many times and I think it’s not big deal. Sometimes we are running multiple applications, multiple browser windows with websites which constantly protected with recaptcha system. It may happen that error is result of slow network or multiple streams running at the same time. Poor connection can also result into Error mark on Recaptcha. All you have to do is refresh the page and redo the process. I tried hard refresh (ctrl + F5) as well as clicking on the link again.
Matter of fact I tried on a different device as well. As in my mobile as well as my laptop.
Its weird since the issue is only for me. Tried different captchas on different sites and all are working fine except for the WoF.
Strange indeed... have you tried it on mobile data as well? Try to run java script again from the programs folder. Troubleshoot the browser for JAVA script running. However it’s unlikely that one page will respond and another won’t. |

I don’t know who will win, but I just feel like if the CEO of the biggest crypto exchange fudds about competitors, we all gonna loose.
Oh great so now we are fighting for the exchangers stand point? What is wrong with people on this earth. I find it so funny that big millionaires like the CEO's of such companies are being cry baby about the FTX exchanger and taking the advantage of the same to showcase their dominance? For me it does not matter who is going to win, the end point is both of them are centralized crypto exchanges and that was the whole point here! They made it go wrong and users registered on them with the funds are loosing their money in the process. I don't understand how market is even reacting to this shit. I think many many people still do not understand the pros and cons of centralized and decentralization of their funds. Unfair market. |

The bet is to keep buying as much as we could starting from this moment until we finish to the ATH. We have seen miraculous growth in the bitcoin so I am super excited for the next year pump. Halving do cause worsen down curve in the trading chart but it never fails to regain itself with bull market. Though anyone might predict bad future for the bitcoin (news media specially), they are just stating based on what they are seeing right now in the market. However, technically bitcoin is highly low in supply, with halving rewards are also halved and thus it gives more difficulty to mine them, reducing the sudden drop in "supply speed". This is definitely whole new realm of craziness. Bitcoin's gonna make me rich and I believe in it. |

1 BTC = 1 BTC. That's all you need to know. Less drama, live longer.
Love it. That actually ends the whole melodrama here and we can continue on focusing to HODL as long as we could. I am not claiming I am perfect hodler but I know one thing for sure, HODLING is really really important and it can give back fruitful results in the future. I only keep selling a portion of it all the time as and when required but I make sure that I contribute the similar amount back to my HODLINGS. I wish I could keep buying more all the time. Right now I am literally shaking to collect funds somehow from different jobs and put into bitcoin considering the prices it has. :-D I wish I would have been miner or manager whose getting paid in bitcoins. Seriously good times to buy more! |

That’s where Apple like companies are making strategies behind their Cool offices. Now I am thinking that it could be best time to enter the market since it’s cheapest one, costs are reduced and people have lot of investment laying around which they could use through well known apps like Apple Pay. They will definitely benefit from this move. And hey, no one really cares whether the market is bearish and bill unless and until it’s all of the crypto usage.
Like I literally got no chills after seeing the market crash. I am just hodling the way I did it last year and before that year. It’s all same for me.
If markets bearish, let’s stand and not sell off anything; what do we have to loose ? May be time?
What would you do after the market is recovered and you have nothing to trade for higher prices? That’s how big players might be thinking and that’s why they get success quickly.
Plan it!

Right now we are not moving in the right direction due to variety of things that happening around the world. Before even going to the FED and changing the balance sheet, the way we print Money, the way we live lifestyle and stuff I guess Russia and Ukrainian needs to stop the war right away.
I am not and I don’t want to bring up the war but let us be mature and agree that it is the Center point of whole inaction’s that’s are happening right now.
Unwanted sanctions came in, now everyone is being enemies of each other and specifically the fuel rich countries on one side while the dominant country on the other.
The clashes are making life difficult to the level of common man now.

You are good with your promotion strategies man. The 100% welcome bonus is good as long as you will keep it notified that we have to double the amount of deposit by wagering it. Start betting and double your deposit I think being new casino here on the forum try to reduce the wagering requirement may be to 50% of the deposit amount or something similar in the line? Could kick start more registration and visits to at least try out the luck of gambler.
The design seems pretty well to me. The DARK theme is definitely love for me, considering the purple and white elements all over shines like Casino Night. Hope you release more promotions along the way except the standard welcome bonus! Moreover, I do not think its a problem if owner has bought the oldest domain ever. I am surprised who was talking coins back in 1999??? |
