Is there a rep for this site on the forum? I've sent multiple emails over the last few weeks requesting to work with the site as an affiliate, and I've received no response. Have they stopped accepting affiliates?

Yes I trust bitcoin casino's these days, of course I do not trust them all but the most because they have proven themselves these days.


What casinos do you trust? Preferably, name a few with good deposit bonuses.  Wink

Yeah, don't use coinbase if you plan on using any bitcoin for gambling. It's against their ToS and they may freeze your account.

Definitely don't go directly from Coinbase/Circle to any gambling site. That's just asking to have your account closed.

If you're going to be doing any gambling, I recommend using an intermediate wallet. For example, buy from Circle/Coinbase and then send to Electrum/Blockchain wallet/whatever, then send to the gambling site.

When you cash out from a gambling site, be sure to use an intermediate wallet before cashing out through Circle or Coinbase. For example, gambling site>Blockchain wallet>Circle/Coinbase.

I've used this method dozens of times without any issues whatsoever.

Thanks for your post, Maged. I'm curious how KYC/AML regulations come into play for Bitcoin traders on LocalBitcoins/Paxful. Are there any existing threads that provide more information about what a trader has to go through to legally buy and sell Bitcoins on LocalBitcoin/Paxful?

I'm contemplating getting involved in buying and selling Bitcoins to earn profit, and I'd like to get an idea of how many hoops the high-volume sellers I see on LocalBitcoins have to go through. I've done a few trades where I sell bitcoins for cash, and it doesn't seem like the buyers collect much information or have an extensive process for verification.


Edit: Also, is there an easy way to see the latest post in threads that I've posted in? On other forums, you can alter the settings to subscribe you to a thread when you post, then you can easily be directly to the new posts, so you can easily keep up with the thread.

This is one of the largest forums I've been a part of, and I'm noticing myself getting lost in trying to keep up with conversations.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me out!  Smiley

Go with Electrum or Multibit. I wouldn't recommend blockchain.info because there's at least 2 threads on this forum where people have reported what appears to be blockchain.info generating an address that is not associated with their wallet's xpub

I agree with your recommendation about Electrum. It's what I use, and I like the fact that you don't have to download the entire blockchain, which saves a lot of hard drive space.

Gambling is risky game of money from which most people lose and just a few wins. Gambling too is addictive and fun especially when you're winning and that's why most people can't get away from gambling once they get in it.
In gambling you only win from the start then you lose whenever you win a certain amount.

1. You can lose from the very start. Happened to me many times.

2. No one wins from gambling in the long run(proved many times)

3. Everything can be considered as a sickness: eating, watching TV series, playing games, etc.

What I'm saying is gambling is an ordinary thing: we are gambling with death every minute.

I agree with you regarding 1,2,3 points, but I didn't understand your last sentence. How is that we are gambling with death every minute, do you mean we can die any moment, cause if thats what you mean, then I agree with that too. Gambling yes can be from an ordinary activity up to sickness depending how addicted to it you are.
That's a very detailed list of yours, I agree with what you are posting, in short gambling is only a waste of time for those who play for sole profit because we cannot win in gambling in the long run and might ruin our life due to addiction.

What type of gambling are you referring to? It's absolutely possible to win money gambling on poker and sports betting.

it depends on the person when you are talking about the games which are based on skills . for example sports betting or poker if the person don't know anything about them and are just betting on luck or tips they get they can't win money over time.

I agree with you, and it does take a lot of work and mental toughness to become a winning poker player or sports better.


2. No one wins from gambling in the long run(proved many times)

This is absolutely not true if you're referring to sports betting and poker.

In sports betting you can win everyday there if you know the team that you are betting you have to have also the knowledge for it.
But in the long run for sure, no one wins. Sometime win, but most of the time you will just lose.

I get what you're saying, but it's impossible to win everyday, even if you're the best sports better in the world. You'll always have winning and losing days. Unless you're doing arbitrage betting, I guess. Then you may always have winning days.

Do you agree that a skilled poker player or sports better is capable of consistently winning, or do you think that anyone who gambles will have negative winnings over the long run?

I think we all here trust the major casinos, the one I trust more is directbet.eu as I play sports betting there usually and they pay you instantly after the event finishes, different from other casinos and sportsbook where you have to wait until the house confirms that the game is won. But overall pretty much all major betting houses are trusted in here.


That's another trustworthy site that I forgot to mention. I don't really play there often though because their odds are bad for sports and they don't offer as many bets as other sites.

Maybe there is sickness for some, but for some others who follow a good tipster is just a hobby, and they don't play in gambling their monthly salary or big, just what they can afford to lose, this way is only a hobby, but if gambling become an obsession then you should seek help for yourself. In case you want to follow a tipster, follow me with my Premium Tips thread in this section, since 2 months I am profitable so far.

Following a tipster isn't a good idea. There's almost no one who gives out picks who are profitable over the long run. If you're a winning sports better, it's detrimental to share your bets with others in 99.99% of cases.

I trust and play on a few bitcoin casino/gambling sites, such as SealsWithClubs, BetCoin and Nitrogen Sports.

How does one Put down Gambling for good?

If you're talking about online gambling, you can request a ban on whatever site you gamble on. I believe most, if not all, gambling sites will IP ban you if you contact them and explain that you have a gambling problem.
