i agree. if someone just keeps compounding the $1 here, $2 there that they spend on lottery tickets, in a few years they would have saved a nice amount of money they could use for something.
and even if you get lucky and win the lottery, depending on your country tax laws, you will need to pay a huge tax on your winnings, lol. the only ones who win either way are the ones running it, aka the government.
Very true and after all this, there are certain cases like the one mentioned in my previous posts where the organizers or the ones giving the lottery tickets sometime take away the winning money while giving only the left over to the winner. So just see how the chances are next to impossible to win a grand lottery. Only if you are really really lucky and the gods are happy with you may be you can get one. It's better to use that money on other things instead.

This tweet was also popular on reels. I got this a couple of times while scrolling my insta. We also pay taxes on everything. Our income, our expenses, our luxuries and even our necessaries. Taxes are unavoidable in our country. Even a regular coffee from startbucks will have 18% GST. I wonder, where does this money go at the end? Yes, some metropolitan cities show promising development but few rural parts are so behind that there is not even proper electricity and water connections for some people. The taxes are just so messed up. For cryptos, 30% tax and 1% TDS was a really big step and most of us accepted that only thinking that this will atleast accept cryptos as a legal tender in our country. But did that really happen? For a certain extend, yes but still cryptos are highly unregulated. Our government should really consider reducing these taxes. I really hope we can send a link to this thread maybe to our finance minister, lol  . Crypto is still not considered as a legal tender in India because it has not been officially approved as a legal tender. It has only been approved to trade for short term and long term gains. A legal tender means people can accept crypto as a payment method which is still illegal in India. The only legal tender officially used in India is Indian Rupee (INR).

--hacked-- n safely transfer ur holdings to new address/s,, move out of the country or don't,, & u don't have to pay anything because u were a victim of an online theft/hack  tell me this isn't possible?  snip This seems a little weird. Alright, I get that if the funds are lost you don't have to pay tax for it but then how would you get it to your bank account ? The only way I see it a working method is if havala is involved and you get cash in return for your coins. But if you are hold a large amount of coins, wouldn't it be difficult to get that much amount of cash. The issue would still persist and you won't be able to get the money in your bank account when needed.

Legalizing prostitution has its own problems, it is such an easy business to get into, almost every woman will lose their chastity and I dont think everyone would like that.
Also today so much of influencers are showing their stuff on social media, I doubt they dont run escort services in the background. They probably do and hence legalizing or not legalizing, it is already running.
If you observe carefully, many girls these are choosing to show their assets on apps like "only fans". Although they do it for money but don't you think it's a shameful thing to do. It's almost similar to prostitution or lets say half prostitution. As you have said already, whether it be legal or not but it is already running in the background.

Seems like Amul has really took off in the whey protein market. The product is always out of stock on their website which shows huge demand for their whey protein. After all they have been providing it for such cheap prices. What do you guys think ? Would it be a big competition to the already established brands ? Source: https://shop.amul.com/en/product/amul-whey-protein-32-g-or-pack-of-60-sachetsMaybe result of protein revolution  They should have been in this category from the start, it's not like they had no access of raw material -pun intended- Desis need to get into this train aggressively and good to see many local brands are chipping in, few days back even heard about some protein atta by some company. You are right, Amul should have been in this category since a long time. The funny thing is, the liquid that is extracted as whey when making paneer is the main thing for making whey powder and they have been throwing it away for so many years. If they would have started long back they would have seen tremendous growth because no other brand offers whey protein for such cheap price.

I’m genuinely interested in how players find good crypto casinos nowadays. I believe the google search results are pretty bad these days—for example, if you simply search “best crypto casino,” you’ll find that CoinCasino comes up as the top choice, which is a bit questionable. ( i strongly disagree, i think its some of the worst casinos )
So, is Bitcointalk still the best source, or are there other reliable places to find a good casino?
Ofcourse it is. Bitcointalk by far has been the best source to get to know about the newest casinos as well as the reputable ones. New casinos announce their site on this forum in the gambling section and some of them even launch a signature campaign which is an effective way for everyone this forum to know about them. Reputed casinos are automatically known on this forum since their services are usually praised by the forum members. So yeah, bitcointalk is the best way to know about a gambling site.

I agree, maybe once every 6 months in my opinion, but otherwise it’s just a waste of money and time. In my country, there was a situation where they didn’t pay the man who won the lottery. Instead, they gave him a smaller amount and a new car, which was nowhere near the sum of money he was supposed to receive.
Oh well, I am pretty sure that the organizers or someone in the middle or the man who he brought the lottery from would have taken his share. He would have claimed the lottery for himself and would have paid a little to the man who actually won the lottery. Such incidents have happened in the past too and people are just afraid to confront this to the higher authorities.

Thinking logically, who shuts down a profitable service just like that, without any problems? Hardly anyone in their right mind would do that. To sum up, both of these options are very likely.
If someone helps me regain access to my FBC account, I will share its balance, which is about 350–400 million $FUN.
PS. No offense, but you’d have to be a total idiot to keep your life savings in crypto, especially on services like these...
Yes, that could be it. I personally think they made bad investments in dplay and clubriches and may be those casinos were not doing well. So freebitco.in might have decided to just shutdown with what they have left over on the site and let the site run on auto pilot so that they can keep taking whats incoming. Now that there's no juice left over, they are just trying squeeze us out. Anyone who was wise enough exited from these sites long back.

we are so so behind and by the time we realize the bitcoin will most definitely hit a milion for sure and most of us will be left out again because most of us don't know about it
and it got me thinking is our financial system deliberately trying to keep us poor by not letting us freely invest in bitcoin and by putting 30% tax and 1% tds on it?
thoughts..?
I have been following him since a few years but I would say that he is at the end a finfluencer. While some of his videos are good to watch and insightful, we should not rely on any advice by any finfluencer. We should do our own research, get the facts right and analyze the situation and take action accordingly. I believe we are still early into bitcoin and while the whole world would have heard of bitcoin by now, a lot of them are still hesitant. This is mostly because it hasn't got regulatory approvals from many countries yet but some have already started. So I would say this is the golden time to get into bitcoin while we still have the chance before it already crosses $1 million. Our financial system is surely in the favor of the rich people and the lower class which is why it's middle class who always gets crushed. But if we plan our taxes well, strategies and invest then we would still be able to generate a decent amount of wealth through our investments. I believe the only way to recover the amount lost in taxes is through thoughtful investments.

Fun part is I saw them and raised my voice I said sale ladki baaz usko pani de raha hai aur humko tevar dikha raha hai . Then he allowed me as well.
Lol, that was epic  It takes guts to confront in such situations especially when you say "saale ladkibaaz"  I support the legalization of prostitution or whatever we have to name it because most of the crimes related to women is due to not having easy access to their physical body needs.
You think so ? I believe, even if prostitution becomes legal, there will be people who will still rape others. There will be people who will misuse their power towards those who are under them. Cities like Mumbai and Pune have brothels but still have rape cases on regular basis.

That is true. On the other hand, we can also opt for a hardware wallet which will secure our coins better than keeping it on an iphone. Even that will cost us less than $100 if we opt for Trezor Safe 3 or model one.
Unless you buy a used one or some repackaged shit from hackerville. Why would anybody do that ? If someone were to buy a hardware wallet I am sure they will be buying a new one. Getting a used once is pretty much useless. It's better to just throw it away in the trash. When you buy a hardware wallet there are a few things you need to be aware. Hardware wallets are still prone to user error and even more than desktop wallets because they're more complicated. Hardware wallets have to come from a legit source. Always check packaging and test the wallet first with a small amount. If you own $100k in bitcoin, first deposit $1k and hold it there for a while. See what happens and if you're able to safely retrieve it and use it for payments. Test the waters before you go swimming  I've held sizable number of bitcoin on normal PC version of Electrum for close to 10 years. People will tell you that windows in vulnerable, that PC is hackable, that there are viruses and trojans... Just keep your computer clean and offline and it really doesn't matter if it's windows or Linux, or whatever. The most important part is keeping it simple and isolated. Use what you're comfortable with. Yes, completely agree with that. Even I have been holding to my coins on my computer until few years back I shifted it to a new wallet and kept it offline. I just hold a hot wallet with very few coins for regular transactions.

Every other exchange coin have not gained much traction as much as BNB. I guess you would have BNB or is it any other exchange coin ?
Unfortunately not in BNB. I have received significant amount of WRX tokens from their initial airdrop which was based on trading volume. And after the pump by binance up to 20k satoshi for a WRX, it started falling down and I started slowly accumulating. I have bought around 10k satoshi and 8k satoshi and then 2k satoshi but right now it is trading around 45 satoshi (approximately for 0.05 USDT). I am not a big follower of altcoins for investments but due to airdrop I got WRX and started tracking it. When it was available for 50% discount from its ATH, I got tempted and decided to risk (at those times, Wazirx was advertised during IPL matches as India's No:1 crypto exchange). I know, even I had some WRX tokens that I received from the airdrop back when it was launched. I sold all my WRX tokens and got a decent amount of money from it but never bought it because I knew it is not worth to invest in it. Since you mentioned you bought it since 10k and downwards, do you mean to say you are in a loss currently ? I just hope you sold your tokens before the WazirX hack because they are not allowing to trade on the site currently.

And specially for the poor one, I mean as I have said, they have a lot of priorities. The best way is to step aside some small amount to bet on lottery. If I'm on that situation, I won't gamble on casinos but will buy tickets for the rest of my life and maybe I will get lucky one day and overturn my life with that one big win.
That is obviously your own choice but I wouldn't do that if I were in your shoes. I mean I don't like betting on lottery much, may be once in 2 or 3 months. It's fine occasionally but otherwise I wouldn't bet on it on regular basis as you say.

The cost of creating/buying an airgapped device is less than $100, which is much cheaper than purchasing an iPhone or any other locked-source device for absolute security. The memory-protection update is more likely to be associated with physical attacks, so I don't think it will significantly impact online attacks. The best solution is to learn how to properly manage airgapped devices while generating sufficiently random seeds.
That is true. On the other hand, we can also opt for a hardware wallet which will secure our coins better than keeping it on an iphone. Even that will cost us less than $100 if we opt for Trezor Safe 3 or model one.

Scammers are hosting sites on site.google.com and from there, they promote the website to Google ads directly sponsored. When you search for the website on google, the sponsored ads comes before the real website. Here is one example, I searched for Uniswap on Google and I was shown this below. snip You can see the fake website at the top shown sponsored. It direct you to this website: https://sites.google.com/view/apdfaz/uniswap Real website: https://app.uniswap.orgDon't rely on google for real links, it can be misleading sometimes. That's a good catch mate. I have known that Google doesn't scan for phishing sites and just allows it on their search engine but didn't know about the hosting on site.google.com This is new for me and it's shocking that its not showing the whole URL but only site.google.com I tried searching Uniswap from my browser but I didn't get that sponsored ad. May be they have removed it now from the search results. It's a good awareness that you are spreading and people should know about this.

Bitcoin alone is more than enough for any investor.
In my opinion, you do not need to diversify within crypto investments but you must diversify your entire portfolio with gold, stocks and real estate investments along with bitcoin.
Before ETH, Litecoin was being considered as a best altcoin to invest with. It means ETH will lose its attraction, when some other better coin hits the market. So, no altcoin would be good for long term plans.
Coloured coins, sidechains, dApps, Defi, memecoins, NFT, Masternode, POS and etc, these are the few of gimmicks used by altcoin devs to lure investors and you can find yourself what are the coins are still surviving out of these concepts based.
I have invested in exchange coins for safer bet but you know the current state of wazirx exchange.
You may risk with altcoins for short term benefits but definitely NOT for diversification reasons.
In today's date, only BNB is an exchange coin which is performing well in the altcoins market. Every other exchange coin have not gained much traction as much as BNB. I guess you would have BNB or is it any other exchange coin ?

The error disappeared from the screen very fast so I couldn't made a screenshot. And as I said, when you stake in the Crash game, there would be a sudden message appears on the screen with inscription "Validation Error" and once it appears, you stake is cut automatic. And I see that is not normal and it looks like a deliberate act from the casino because if my stake has a validation error, then my funds should not be deducted. And the funny thing is that the error is not from my end.
Okay we get that the error displayed was just for few seconds but you can surely provide us the screenshot of that bet from the bet history. What does the bet history say in this case ? Does it show as bet lost or does it show validation error or something. Did you try to contact the customer care in this case and if yes then what did they respond ? AFAIK there’s no record on said bet since it doesn’t went through as there’s validation error on the said bet. I think his concern is the missing bets from this error while it’s hard to report this to support as he has no proof for the said bet unless he will submit screenshot indicating the error. Obviously the balance was reduced from his gambling account and that means that he should have lost the bet. So I am guessing that there should be a transaction in the bet history which indicates this loss which can be used as an evidence for showcase. If there is no transaction of this in the bet history then only the customer care can help by checking the server logs. @youngrebel screen record your game so that you can catch the error and snip a screenshot of the error and send it to the support to report it.
Yeah, that will be the only way out but he will have to be fortunate enough for the validation error issue to replicate when he's recording. This means that he will have to keep on betting until he is able to get that issue again.

When I first discovered Bitcoin, every move in price felt like a life-changing event. A $500 drop made me panic, a $1,000 pump made me think I was set for life. Over time, though, the way I look at it has changed.
These days, I see Bitcoin less as a quick way to make money and more as a long-term habit. I don’t check the charts constantly anymor, it just sits there like a piece of my financial routine, the same way people contribute to a pension or keep a savings account.
What’s interesting is how the excitement has shifted. For me, it’s no longer about chasing the next all-time high, but watching how Bitcoin slowly becomes part of everyday conversations, companies, and even policies. It feels less like an experiment now, and more like something permanent.
I’m curious if others here have gone through the same cycle, from price obsession to simply viewing Bitcoin as part of the background of life.
I know that feeling as I have been there too and over time you just get used to feeling that bitcoin will surge in price sooner or later. So even if there's a minor fall in price, your belief in bitcoin will not let you stress over it. To keep yourself updated, you can just look for the price may be once or twice in a week. Other than that, there's no real need to keep monitoring the price every few hours.
