1  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Donald Trump's stance on Bitcoin is changing, the Trump pump is beginning on: Today at 03:13:14 PM
I like Trump's statement that supports Bitcoin for bitcoiners in the US in his campaign he is very supportive of our community, but from what has been said so far at that time and from the real evidence he supports is still very questionable.

Not long before the Arkham uploaded a wallet that allegedly belonged to Trump on twitter, but I didn't see Bitcoin ownership in the wallet, there were only a few of his memecoins and WETH and ETH, of course for me personally it was just a sweetener when campaigning to get public support who liked bitcoin, He should have at least a little bitcoin as a form of real support.

Source
I don't get why they think that wallet would belong to Donald. Because of Trump Cards activity?

This is from the site that sold the cards:



Those guys (obviously guys) just issued the cards with stolen and modified images, and got go-ahead from trump, with some kind of monetary deal. And i am sincerely wondering when trump is suing them because of a bad deal he made again.

And sure, every wallet that is suspected by being donald's wallet will be probably flooded with incoming memetokens to "trump" for hodl, as creators of them want name for themselves and people are watching what that wallet is holding. You know, like they flooded Vitalik's wallets

The fact that there are many others including Cohen who are not in jail cells, but did things even worse than Trump, shows that this whole thing was a set-up. But it is backfiring.
Lol Cheesy, keep on coping. You mean Cohen, one of those best people dump was talking about? Who served his sentence, because he did what dump asked him to do? Because he cooperated unlike dump? Because he taped him? You are really following different feeds.

And of course some people will support the Trump, as some people support only ideas, that are strongly against scientific method or consensus, like you for example.

I've been wondering why reality is such a hard pill to swallow for you, that every unlikely alternative is better? Would reality make you seem too insignificant or something? Would it help of you to think of it as setting you free and have fulfilling life instead? You just have to accept it, you know, like you accepted what ever religion you have? This way you would have actual overwhelming evidence to support your views.

Here's a simple image to remind you:


I am not trying to hijack this thread to speak about reality, but i think i need to remind you the concept of it, because what's happening now is part of it, and you need to accept that.

Best of luck to President Trump.
I automatically misread that luck as a cuck as in: "Best of cuck: President Trump".
Must be because i am used to it coming from "i dO mY OwN rEseArCH, without any actual science involved" -type of crowd, that are using it as a slur a lot.
3  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: how long do we think memecoins narrative is going to last ? on: Today at 10:05:59 AM
Memecoin trend just started, a number of memeocins fans interesting rapidly that you can't imagine. Cause you can see the price about pepe, wif or many more memeocin what change a people future and that's why people keep trying the luck with memecoins and it won't stop soon. Rather you'll see the fever of memeocins will increase with time cause everyone want to quick money Which is possible with memecoins only.

Meme token has become a new way for people to be the next millionaire. Imagine by investing around 1k USD and your token gets multiplied like 1x times and you will be able to get 1 millions USD. Imagine if such a thing will happen to you. No doubt that if people are massively investing in the meme token at this moment.

The weirdest thing is that if there are still people who cannot accept that fact if meme token has been even worthy compared to the utility token at this moment. Meme token will be last forever as long as there are still crypto exists in the market.

Even some meme tokens have more than 5 billions marketcap. Imagine such valuation owned by a token that called as useless token. If we are not even following the trend and how can we become the rich person?

People have been performing very well. It's always growing up even higher. Im still expecting a huge increase to happen with meme token soon.

I see them as useless as most of the other tokens and coins. But narrative why people buy them differs from coins that trying to solve something. Because meme's aren't really trying to be anything else then they are, they are not offering solutions, but sort of change to rebel against normal markets, like old bitcoiners, when suits were laughing at it. Even though bitcoin has real fundamentals, i see the rebelliious part similar.

Meme tokens customer base seems to be people who are rebels, or just bored of old market narratives and more interested about "casino markets". Because while most of them die and new ones come and die after that, the ones that keep on surviving are like this weird essence of everything that's wrong with markets. They are absurd examples of something that shouldn't work and keep on working. They are mocking the tokens and coins that were marketed as "real" utility tokens. Real utility world changing "decentralized" tokens that didn't have point in the first place. Never will have a purpose, and are slowly dying. So why wouldn't i invest in some lowcap or use mature meme tokens as a currency, just for the meme value and laughs.

There has been several projects that have tried RWA's, but nothing has been really successful so far because of regulatory limits with trading securities. And you do understand that we literally already have such investing opportunities, by investing companies with stocks? They aren't just decentralized, and making them decentralized often falls to ever changing regulatory demands, and lack of the platform that operates in a way FATF would be happy about it.

You can't just create a erc-20 or other token and say they are company shares or rwa's... Well you can but you couldn't even trade them via any legit cex. And sharing company profits to pseudonymous accounts would break AML laws and get you to jail eventually, if amounts were big enough.

Tokens and cryptocurrency Are not money they are only money If you exchange them into money.
Your crypto is your private business.
What you mean i cant ?
Yes i can it's Simple i'll just make meme coin named real estate developent or other purposes maybe meme coin for collecting funds to buy forest and cutting trees maybe opening some hotel maybe this maybe that.
Then later who got most tokens off course get bigger rewards of business.
People give away money just for fun let the meme coin creators try to make some business at least wich can make profit and then we all rich money makes money
Yeah, i wasn't talking about crypto being money. That doesn't even make any sense. I don't think you really read what i said.

Sure, you can create a meme token that has only speculative value, it's permissionless after all, and if you market it correctly or airdrop it you might not have any problems with it. .

But it's hardly "your own business" anymore. Especially if crypto you sold is tied to real world company incentives. Why would you think that any CEX would list that if your project clearly break AML laws and aren't even passing the Howey Test?

These kind of projects you are describing worked with low level in 2015-2016 in NXT ecosystem for example, but only because money inflow was low and no one was paying attention enough to force any regulations. Have you paid any attention why teams and exchanges get sued from left and right these days? Or are you purposely ignoring that?

It has been reported that the case involving Donald Trump won't be resolved until after Election Day. Despite this, I still see hope among people who want to support him in the upcoming election, and I want to understand why. The country hasn't improved since he left, and it continues to be run by capitalists. Everything happening makes the country look like the third world country

Sentencing is in July 11. So this case will be resolved even before s before republicans picking Trump as 2024 presidental nominee. But dumb is facing three other criminal cases as well that could take time to get resolved. If this would be any other person then ex president, he would be in holding cell already and after that rest of his life in prison. But for ex president, i would guess it's going to be just home detention with an ankle bracelet. But could be rest of his life. I am also interested to see if this sentencing includes any financial penalties.

7  Economy / Economics / Re: Luxury items stock will be good way to go on: May 30, 2024, 11:46:03 PM
I think Luxury items brands cucci Ferrari or some yacht companies Luxury resorts and hotels.
and even in recression those things always on high demand and when we look at geopolitical situation all over the world by all those issues at the end more and more wealth will go to hands who will consume luxury goods.
It's like bank robbery lol...let them rob bank and i'll get some % asweell without doing anything because the money end destination will be luxury brands:)
More poverty might mean that a lot money for few and it's good for luxury brands life is short off course they want taste touch and feel all the finest things in the world.

You do realize that liquidity would be scarce if you try to get rid of them quickly. And you would sometimes need to list them for ages to get premium price. Consumer base for those is smaller then other things and if you wanted cash quickly you would most likely need to sell them with huge loss, as people wouldn't necessarily be interested of them at that time without huge discount. And rich people aren't some sort of monolith with their taste. They collect different kinds of luxuries, and your popular luxury now might be niche market in the future.

So why wouldn't you just buy stocks or commodities instead, from an exchange with huge liquidity. Why is it important to own something physical luxury? Just the cost for maintaining and protecting them would set you back so much, that it doesn't seem you thought this though at all.

8  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your biggest winning odd for single match? on: May 29, 2024, 11:53:54 PM
Let's share our biggest winning odd.

Last month I won a bet with 7.5 odd.
I bet on Tennis against Rafael Nadal.  Grin Grin Grin
20x odd. I was starting on betting and it was a boxing match on a casino i haven't used for a long time anymore. It was a match that looked like it could be boring to watch live. And if i had bet on either of the fighters odds would have been really low, so i decided to make things more interesting. I have to say i was really surprised i won. I think it was only $5 bet though. I can't remeber who the fighters were, only that they were men. It was a long time ago.

But it was pure luck, and combination bets have served me better.

Unfortunately I don't fall for scams easily. They know who I am. I was certainly not a good user, they even have some reasons for not liking me. But staff members have near relations with certainly users (HR) and share really private info from users to each other, This is very clear, all players know this.
We have no way to verify whether your claim is true or not. Either the representative or the campaign manager of Shuffle can confirm it here. Users KYC data are very sensitive documents. None of the casinos share those informations to a normal user. According to terms and AML policy, Shuffle team might share those informations to a 3rd party service to verify the legitimacy of the documents. BTW, why are you addressing yourself as a bad user of Shuffle casino?

@Little Mouse, is there anything wrong on Shuffle? Perhaps, there is an imposter inside the Shuffle team member who is trying to bring down it's reputation.

The team of this Casino was extremely unprofessional, for example Brettshuffle was extremely unprofessional by telling at my personal telegram lots of bad messages and making fun of me Unfortunately, they can't deny what I'm saying or they would be liars.
I am assuming you have more screenshots from these bad messages and insults to back your story. At least that i would have done.. screenshotted everything.

I have to say that sounds strange, but keeping in mind the impersonating incident i'll take anything what might be a fud attack with a huge grain of salt now. And maybe start over your story, because when you say things like "they even have some reasons for not liking me", it sounds like you are leaving something important out, not enough to dox you of course but it would help to have a full story and not just fragments that we need to put together.

Your kyc might have leaked from other places as well, and if you are using same nick, it's not that hard to dox you and use it to freak you out. However i would like to know how shuffle responds, before jumping to conclusions, as we have only your word and two censored pics with it.

Just a daily reminder for those poker freeroll lovers. lol Another poker freeroll tournament is about to begin and registration is now open.
Register here now:(last 10 mins left to register from now)
Code:
https://skcom-play.poker-server.com?tournamentId=6026

I'm surprised the tournament freeroll tournament haven't reached max player of any round. It's only 3K max players can register but it always like 2.5K only registered the tournament. Maybe if they also post this in there X.com account they can reached max player every round. In short they just need it to advertise.

Last time i tried to get in almost late, it was full 3k for the first time i've seen, but i've only played 3 times, and once got to somewhere around 150th with a dollar prize Smiley. Tactics to get there aren't really suddle. People are putting all in with crappy hands because they aren't losing anything by trying. So in the end there seems to be few lucky ones. Tactics don't really matter much, at least on that level.

Also i tried with mobile last time and i think they fixed the folded cards trasparency issue that i and other people complained about, or it just shows up differently with mobile.
11  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: It's impossible to copy Bitcoin, and the price will always rise because on: May 28, 2024, 08:39:28 PM
-cut-
if this logic is invalid, please correct me if i'm wrong thx
Ok, i'll correct then.

1. Bitcoin code is open source and have been copied several times and duplicates and variations have been made, sometimes by only changing the name, and i have lost count on the number of forks that derived from it.
2. Your circular argument doesn't really make sense. You are just basically describing popularity.
3. Buying bitcoin forks or altcoins doesn't affect bitcoin network security in any way.
4. Yeah, everyone wants bitcoin network to be secure, bit like i already said. Buying "competition" doesn't affect it.
5. I don't grasp what you are trying to say with point c. Network being less secure wouldn't rise the price, in fact it would have an opposite effect. People are buying it because it's secure. Which is one of the reasons there will be plenty of miners to keep it secure. And as long as that stays decentralized enough, it will stay secure.

12  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will altcoins ever cheap again? on: May 28, 2024, 07:22:08 AM
Now crypto market is growing super faster along with Bitcoin. Altcoins are become so expensive. People who keep waiting to buy altcoins with cheap price during Bitcoin halving, are disappointed cause market is still on up trend. Sometimes little dump is happening but market recovery also done so fastly. So what do you think? Will altcoins ever cheap again? Or you are buying overprice altcoins?
If you didn't buy them cheap, you won't buy them when they are "expensive" either. Because the expensive price you are referring today can be cheap next week when you realize it's not going down and that was near bottom compared to where is it that day. You will only lose it you are going to chase the bottom, because you won't ever invest into it while waiting for next bottom.

Reason i know that is i've seen this so many times, people think they are expensive now, and later there will be people who say that if they only knew about such coin they would surely bought them at that level, but they wouldn't. Because cheap and expensive are relative terms and mean nothing without context.

That's psychology of hindsight, you would have thought bitcoin was expensive in 2014 as well because it hadn't drop to the level it started from.

I'm merely saying that changing your playing habits might do you more bad than good. If you're a reasonable Craps player, then it's probably better to stay with that with volume, than playing different games that collects higher fees just because there's an airdrop.

I say that with the presumption that the airdrop is calculated from the fees you pay to the casino.

Sure, but if i don't change my gambling habits because of profits but because of maximizing airdrop, i think it makes sense. And my post was an airdrop specific. And if volume is what counts, i am not sure why i should stay with my original volume which would be a lot lower and would guarantee i would get smaller airdrop. If you have enough money, i guess you could trust on high rtp eventually giving your money back, but if you are going with small budget, you can pretty much guarantee that you will create surprisingly large volume with just $20
14  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is not place to make money is place to lose it? on: May 27, 2024, 03:28:10 PM

Is this true gambling is not place to make money is place to lose it?


Some casinos want you to believe that their casino is a good place to make money or double your money, but the fact is gambling is never a cash cow, and you have little chance of making money from gambling.

Casinos are not a place to lose money just like that, it's an entertainment platform and you have to pay for something that will give you a sort of entertainment because entertainment is not free, casinos spend money to set up their platform for gamblers to enjoy their time there.

Exactly, sometimes there are some advertisements for casinos on billboards in my country where those casinos will boldly state, "Win $100, 000, multiply your earnings, and enjoy real entertainment." In my imagination, (i would say) all these false promises are just to attract more gamblers or novices, making them think they can easily multiply their money and win $100,000.

Gambling is good entertainment for those who love it, but it's never a good way to make money, not because it's illegal but because there is no guarantee to earn from it for every dollar you stake. Someone can stake $20 and even lose it; some big gamblers are losing thousands to millions of dollars every day at the casino.
That kind of advertising is illegal in my country. I am assuming it's illegal in most first world countries in a same way you can't advertise a token sale like that without SEC ruling it as a security.
But i really sometimes wonder why people think casinos would be profitable organizations if most people win more money then they would lose?

In fact that applies to every game in every casino. The fact some people really think that there would be a tactic that they just haven't found, or that they are just gambling wrong and losing because of that puzzles me. Do these people totally ignore the concept of luck? Or do they consider other winners lucky and they themselves, not only unlucky but gambling wrong? It shouldn't be a news that casinos are build so that they are mathematically guaranteed ultimately to make profit.

Some casino do allow the use of VPN but not all and like you said they are major disciplinary actions taken if they find out that the account is tied up with the use of VPN that's for casino that are not VPN friendly because it's simple as breaking the casino so they will either confiscate your funds or cease your winnings and return the deposit that's if you were able to pull out a win from the casino through this particular VPN played game.
There are several reasons why people would VPN, and in most cases that's technically allowed and not illegal. But when casinos that say they allow VPN, they don't mean they allow VPN to escape regulations and mislead casino about the bout one's country of residence.

And because people are misusing VPN to hide country they are living on to be able to play, many casinos just rather blanket ban all VPNs.

Saying VPN's are allowed is similar to saying, "driving licence cards are allowed as proof of identity", And people would see that as an opportunity to use other people's driver licence as their own, because they were "allowed" as proof of identity.

Nobody making a bet is a proof that bettors in Gambling ate low IQ.
Insulting people for not blindly trusting newbie anon is only red flag anyone would need. I've seen only scammers using this type of tactic, and funny enough, oddly defensive insulting before anyone has even said anything is either a sign of not a very bright scammer, or a sign of insecurity. In both cases, i will just roll my eyes for replies like this

You see this kind of negging tactics in dating sites done by sociopathic incels, so i guess it would work for someone who desperately needs respect from anon in the internet.

And stop spamming this thread several times per day. You can fit several answers to one message. Pumping this thread by yourself many times per day, like you did in May 23-24. That's against forum rules.
17  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Double your money and quite on: May 27, 2024, 02:45:25 PM
What do you think of this method?
Is there anyone among you who does it?
Give us one of your winning strategies, of course if that is possible.
What makes sense in this scenario is having a budget and exit plan. But 100% in profits are just an arbitrary number and wouldn't fit on everyone, it makes as much sense as make as much sense as leaving when losing $100, which will be happening more often then winning that $200 i am guessing. So if there's a change to make more than that $100, why wouldn't you?

For example, let's say you are winning $120 in one bet, are you going to leave because you won over $100 and or take out that $100 because you need to secure that and see how far that extra $20 takes you? Because in my book it would make more sense to pick the latter one. '

Thing with gambling is that sometimes there are possibility for huge wins, and at least i wouldn't leave those ignored, because i want to settle for less. If i had that 100 secured, i would definitely go for a moonshot with that $20.

What happen with this game? and which region are suitable for this game.
Can't access stake.com from my region so I use vpn. But sometimes I can access this game in Singapore location but sometimes this game doesn't open. sometimes it runs smoothly from japan location and sometimes it doesn't, sometimes it can be played in Germany location and sometimes the game doesn't show for Germany location. What's the problem I don't understand sometimes it works in the same location and sometimes it doesn't work

Do you know which region is best for this live game?
If you can't access that from a region you are from, you really shouldn't try to get around that. Getting caught for trying to hide where you are living in usually will lead to frozen account as there's a reason for that restriction in the first place, and gambling service providers are legally obligated to kick you if they find out. And they don't even need to pay your money back as you were cheating in the first place.

But about your question, i could imagine that some third party game providers (like live games and slots) could block ip's themselves, and known vpn ips might be flagged and blocked by such service providers. It's just a theory, but i can't see why they wouldn't. I am not sure if they need to or if they can trust casinos doing that.

19  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Something feels off about Kaspa on: May 27, 2024, 09:42:33 AM
I'm back from a long break from altcoins and crypto in general.  During which I was occasionally checking up on BTC news, but didn't really follow anything else.  Recently got back into it after some curiosity.  There is one altcoin that pretty much came out of nowhere that's making a lot of noise. Instantly I'm super skeptical about it after only reading into it very lightly.  Seeing how Bitmain and so many other ASIC makers would suddenly have an ASIC for it (so much quicker than I've seen for any other altcoin).  The coin itself has no utility, it's not any any major exchange, and isn't really that ground breaking, and looks way too 'polished' from a marketing perspective.  I doubt that an ASIC maker would take such a risk on it.  Then, I see the exorbitant price gouging on these ASICS that probably cost no more than a few hundred dollars to make.
Can you elaborate few points? Maybe you lost me here. I start by saying that i am not advocating Kaspa in any way, i know too little of them to do so.

But you are saying it doesn't have an utility? To me it sounds like another L1 solution that tries to solve age old problems and be improvement of the likes of bitcoin. Coins work as an incentive to keep the chain secure, so i am not sure what other utility they would need to have. And when a PoW coin has $3.2 billion marketcap, obviously ASIC makers want to cash out on that.

I don't see anything wrong with trying to make something better or different than bitcoin. It's not an attack to bitcoin, but just normal development. Bitmain would obviously be interested to push this because it's Proof of Work. And i am not sure why it would be strange that they tried to use PoW coin with a 3.2 Billion marketcap on their advantage.

Quote
- The entity drives/sponsors the development of a new altcoin/blockchain, gathers some open source community support.  Ultimately, the majority development is fully driven by those employed by the entity.  Many 'community' members are actually employees.

This used to be a common thing with "community" driven projects, and it's natural that project attracts professionals who want to participate. And what would be more motivated worker then a person who have fallen love with the coin, who is also total believer and fanatic.

Maybe i am missing out something obvious you tried to point out here, but people with certain type of rigs are usually lobbying projects that benefit them. I am guessing that lot of FUD against Eth2.0 PoS was organized by people who used to mine eth.

But risking some SHFL to receive a higher reward multiplier will probably give you positive expectation against the SHFL risked, no?

Plus for "how to play" to get more playing volume, I believe just play the games that you play regularly. Changing your gambling routine would add to actual financial, if you ask me.
I don't follow you. But wouldn't that depend how you play regularly? I am regularly playing with slots and there are very low changes that i would make same amount of volume using $5 on playing with slots versus playing $5 on dice with 1.0102 multiplier. My money would run out faster with slots if i didn't get large wins. When with dice i would lose a bet 2 times out of 100 (in theory), so even if i wouldn't win with dice, changes are that i would lose slower.

And bear in mind this is just for mining the tokens, and grinding up levels. Not a long term solution, and basically not a lot to do with gambling. I'll get back to playing slots and betting with sports later.
