1  Economy / Economics / Pandemic will bring more economic progress in long-term... on: December 09, 2020, 05:15:33 PM
We have seen a lot of companies changing procedures and implementing more radical ways of doing their work.
Businesses have adopted new processes and technologies—and there are signs that they may pay off in the future. The pandemic and COVID-19 era could give a rapid productivity growth after the vaccination of the global population is going to end or reach a significant percentage.

Remote working and new systems that help companies being better organized are what businesses struggled a lot to adopt in the beginning of the pandemic. Now this kind of investment is going to pay off.

My company made a huge investment in adopting systems such as remote meeting places, cloud systems that help organizing documents and a way of eliminating paperwork... I believe that this is going to increase the productivity of the employees especially if those go back to work.

Have you seen any changes in your working environment like these?
2  Economy / Scam Accusations / Ledger scammers have hit again... on: December 06, 2020, 10:11:29 PM
Ledger scammers have hit again... There were a few messages that some people received lately from Ledger saying that withdrawals needed cancelation or verification leading to a phising link.

I just received another similar message that I have to verify my account due to new KYC regulations.

This message has the same format as the old ones that scammers used.

Seems like this story is not going to end soon...

Hi guys.
The dilemma that I am going to raise is something that I think has passed everyone's mind.
Would you ever choose a job that pays a good salary or would you choose a job in the sector that you love with lower salary?
Personally, I would go for the first option...

6  Economy / Gambling discussion / Any Casino with good Investment Returns? on: March 18, 2020, 10:37:03 AM
Hello everyone!

I used to be an investor in CryptoGames casino.
Some days ago they announced that they stop getting funds from individuals as they believe that this is not beneficial for their organization.
I didn't make a lot of profits thus I wasn't happy, but I think that I can try one more time to invest in a casino.

Do you know any online casinos that accepts funds from individuals and provide decent profits in return?

8  Economy / Gambling discussion / 2 Dice Strategies that Might be Proven Helpful on: December 04, 2019, 09:41:53 AM
As a lot of people in the gambling crypto world are mostly focused in playing Dice, I would like to post 2 strategies that might be proven helpful.
Tip: I don't say that those strategies would make you rich, but it is a good way to control losses and increase your possibilities of making profits.
___________________________________________
1. The Paroli Strategy

The Paroli strategy is a progressive dice strategy designed to take advantage of winning streaks. The Paroli strategy looks like this:
1. A player will determine a base stake
2. The player will double their bet after each win
3. The player will stop raising their stake after three consecutive wins
4. After a loss, the player bets only their base stake

The Paroli strategy helps players to minimize losses and capitalize on winning streaks.
___________________________________________
2. The Break-Even Martingale Strategy

The break-even Martingale Bitcoin dice strategy is similar to the standard Martingale, but staggers the staking process, slowing the rate at which stakes are increased.
A break-even martingale dice strategy looks like this:
1. A player loses a 10m฿ bet to roll under 50
2. The player places a 10m฿ bet to roll under 50
3. If that bet loses, the player places a 10m฿ bet to roll under 50 again
4. If the second 10m฿ bet loses, the player then increases the bet to 20m฿, and continues the Martingale strategy

This process helps players hold out against a losing streak for longer.


Personally, I follow the The Break-Even Martingale Strategy if I want to gamble defensively and The Paroli Strategy in case I want to bet offensively.
Of course there are more strategies - they can be found here: https://medium.com/@trustdice/top-5-bitcoin-dice-strategy-guide-how-to-win-at-crypto-dice-710356688997


I hope it might help you increase your profits and control your losses! Cheers and happy gambling!

I hope that Turkey is going to be destroyed after this massacre which does without a reason.
Erdogan drops bombs towomen and kids - he hits the root of terrorism.....
Apart from that, he helps ISIS gain more power as the Kurds was a strong Barrier and stopped the ISIS dominance.
He just started this invasion in order to strengthen the migrant waves and push pressure to Europe.

11  Economy / Economics / Can a Stock Market Crash affect Bitcoin? on: August 15, 2019, 07:12:38 AM
I was thinking that investors would think the cryptocurrency market as an alternative to traditional investment products.
Having said that, my point was that those two markets have a reverse impact.

If the stock market goes down, then investors would start searching for alternative (more profitable) investments and turn to Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies.
The last days stock market crash seems that lead the market cap of the crypto market down.

Does the Stock Market has impact over the Bitcoin price?
12  Other / Politics & Society / Is Erdogan Dangerous for Global Peace? on: July 04, 2019, 05:03:31 PM
Turkey has already agreed to get a Russian missle system s400.
Europe and the US are against this deal because Erdogan violate's NATO rules, but he doesn't seem that he is willing to cancel the deal. On top of that, he demands from the US to provide him the F-35 airforce planes that was agreed.

I think that he is a dangerous guy that he just wants to get everything without giving something back.

Do you think that he is a dangerous guy for global peace?

15  Local / Ελληνικά (Greek) / Bitcoin Miner σε υπόγειο Δημόσιας Υπηρεσίας [vid] on: September 29, 2018, 08:38:29 AM
Λογικά κάποιοι από εσάς το έχετε δει/διαβάσει ήδη. Πήρα την ευκαιρία να το ποστάρω όμως και για τους υπόλοιπους που δεν τα μάθατε!

Ίσως τελικά είμαστε σε καλό επίπεδο για crypto - adoption σαν Ελλάδα. Πάντα όμως θα υπάρχει κάποιος πολυμήχανος Έλληνας να μας εντυπωσιάζει!

Βρέθηκαν μηχανήματα Bitcoin Mining στο υπόγειο του ΚΕΕΛΠΝΟ στην Βάρη!

Μπορείτε να διαβάσετε ολόκληρο το άρθρο εδώ και να δείτε τί είχαν "στήσει" μέσα σε δημόσια υπηρεσία.

Το είχαν σκεφτεί πολύ καλά, αφού εκτός από τα έξοδα hardware (που και αυτά μπορεί να είχαν τιμολογηθεί στο δημόσιο), δεν υπήρχε κανένα άλλο κόστος, παρά μόνο καθαρό κέρδος.

16  Economy / Scam Accusations / HURTLECOIN (HRTL) SCAM connected with Maxnetlabs.com? on: July 02, 2018, 08:51:30 PM
Hello dear community.

Another incident of SCAM project is pointed here.

I believe that going through the website of this project (https://www.hurtlecoin.com/) you can truly understand that something going wrong.

What caught my attention is that only 3 guys are members of this project and by the way there is no redirection to their Social media accounts.

http://prntscr.com/k1rk9s

This 3 guys are also appeared in the website of Maxnetlabs (Maxnetlabs.com) a blockchain services provider firm, BUT with Different roles!!!!! Also the pictures of Atif Zahid and Nauman Zahid redirects to the same Facebook profile!

Mr Omer Khan, has a role of Blockchain Developer in HURTLECOIN and Marketing Director in the other.

http://prntscr.com/k1rm38


As HURTLECOIN bounty campaign is on the first pages of the bounty section we need some clarifications on this issue.

Either HURTLECOIN or MAXNETLABS is trying to SCAM people and we need to raise awareness once again.

18  Other / Serious discussion / [Conspiracy theory] Banks in Crypto Market on: June 25, 2018, 08:01:23 AM
After the recently drops in crypto prices i have started thinking the reasons that this happens. Of course we could blame the decentralization of the system and that it's why the volatility of the market is normal.
However, as a conspiracy guy i think that this war that institutions have started against cryptos may be for their own good. My point is that governments,banks and financial institutions have begun to be strict in order to drop down the prices and eventually buy coins in lower prices.

I believe that blockchain technology would be omnipresent in all organizations. In this way, cryptos would follow this trend as well and banks know that.

20  Other / Serious discussion / ICO Auditing on: June 22, 2018, 06:34:08 AM
Recently i discovered that the rate of SCAM ICOs have increased significantly. Thus, from that moment i sqeeze my mind in order to find a way so that the community will get right of scammers and eliminate them.

Scammers do not only steal money, but also they destroy the whole idea of the decentralized system. This system is based on trust and trust is decreased as Scammers are everywhere.

Given that, i was thinking of an Auditing Control of ICOs. ICO listing is a good step because it provides some information but not efficient.

I have not developed clearly this idea in my mind but i think that something like this should happen in order to protect the crypto-community.
