I took a break from gambling for about a couple of months ago, today i decided to return back and stake a bet in a fiat casino and after staking my bets, i saw that a feature of an auto-cashout has been made available where one can set a cashout limit. For instance, when you stake a bet and the potential winning is $1000, you can set the auto-cashout at $200 such that when the bet approaches a cash-out of that amount, it automatically cashout by itself without you needing to do it manually.

I am really excited by this feature because i could recall a time when i wanted to cashout a bet but i was having a poor network which lasted for several hours and it made me not to cashout the bet and in the end the bet lost. If a feature like this auto-cashout was available then i wouldn't have lost the whole winning since it will just cashout by itself.

However, just like the manual cash-out option, the auto-cashout feature can also cause many people not to win the actual amount but it's still a good development for those who do have double thoughts either to cashout a bet or not. Will this feature be helpful to achieve winnings or another way to distract us from winning the total returns of a bet?

I saw that a suggestion of this feature was made some time ago by @bSpend: Suggesting a feature for casinos
Does anyone know if any crypto casino has made this feature available?

Edit:

This is a bet i just stake not quite long, you can see the auto-cashout feature from the screenshot.

I was admiring the cash-out option initially since bettors can still have the privilege of winning part of their supposed winning amount but recently, i have regretted why the cash-out feature was introduced because about 3 times i could have won huge bets but i ended up cashing out and in the end all the events i selected played according to how i predicted them. Has the cash-out option caused more harm than good to us? the reason why am asking this question is because we know how difficult it is to win a bet and most of us wish to win huge bets but due to the idea that if we allow all the events to run through the bet might end up losing, it now made us to often decide to cash out a bet half way due to the fear of ending up losing everything.

Gambling have been in existence for a very long time in the life of humans and we cannot dispute the fact that gambling has made some persons and it has also wrecked a lot of people and it is believed that the rate of losses to gambling is greater than the winning rate and while some people gamble for fun while others takes gambling as a hobby and some others become so addicted such that they have lived most of their lives playing gambling and even though they lose most of time but yet they still continue with the urge to gamble more hoping to get lucky and win someday.

Now coming to the forum here majority of our discussions here is also centered on gambling and I don't know if it is as a result of the fact that a lot of the campaigns we are advertising their signatures are casino companies that makes us discuss so much about gambling. However, even in reality most people discuss gambling and I begin to wonder if gambling have become a subject matter all over the globe.

Now my question is this, how did gambling came into existence in the first place like who invented gambling?

On March 14, 2024, Bitcoin reached a new ATH of $73k and surpassed the previous ATH of $69k in 2021, a lot of investors were happy that the price reached a new ATH even before the halving event that happened in 20 April 2024 so some long and short term hodlers took profits from their investment when the new ATH was created. Now, some investors who didn't take out profits when the ATH was created are waiting anxiously to see another new ATH this year before the bull run begins so that they can utilize the opportunity.

Is it really necessary to be anxious for a new ATH to be created or just keep hodling and discard whether a new ATH happens or not? And is it also a good practice to be taking out profits from your Bitcoin investment each time a new ATH is achieved?

As we all know that today is a remarkable day popularly known as April fool's day which occurs every 1st of April. Literally, people plays a lot of pranks today of which some people may choose to go too extreme to prank people so my advice is that as we go about saying fallacies and pranking people on things that ain't real, we should know the kind of pranks we play, no go carry person go early grave unto say you dey do April fool. Abeg make we tread caution.

In life, most of the time success can easily be achieved when you've got some money because it will enable you to make diverse investments that would increase your income generating network but however, it's not every skill that necessarily requires so much money before you can become productive.

It's obvious we are in a digitized era where almost everything is being done on the internet and digitization have made it easier for mankind to perform different operations at ease with one another. It is important for us to understand the need for basic skills acquisition that can upgrade our portfolio without it being that everything is made available on a platter of Gold.

Over the years, we all have seen how social media have stood as an income generating platform for so many people that didn't even know the potentials the possess within themselves just like a lot of people have been making money through content creation, selling of courses online, affiliate marketing and so on.

The Internet have made it easier for anyone who is creative enough to make it online without having to spend too much money learning a particular skill as most time what you need is just a smartphone or computer and data subscription. There are so many channels online that one can engage in other to have a vast knowledge about a skill they want to acquire just like the YouTube channel.

YouTube have made it easier for people to learn and acquire different skills without Spending much money as you can literally just open your app and search for something you wish to know about and just watch the video maybe repeatedly, before you will realize you are already getting familiarized with what you want to know. A lot of people have acquired so many skills that fetches them a whole lot of money just by being at home and learning a lot of things on the Internet.

It is important to note that the most limited resource in life is time, we should make judicious use of our time wisely as most people are just concerned about the contents they get online without wanting to know how this contents are being gotten and possibly get involved in other to become productive as well. If you must have a successful life then you must be creative and also learn how to do things differently from how everyone else does as that is what will stand you out and bring out more value in you. Be more creative and invest in your time wisely!

So I brought this topic to let us know that in gambling, if you just play it as though you don't take it seriously whether you win or lose then you might surprisingly win an amount that will amaze you one day and it would look as if you're smart or you know how to predict the outcome of events and in most cases, when a gambler wins they doesn't really care much about their previous losses regardless of the amount they won.

So I just felt like making some predictions in sports betting today and the events was about 8 matches, and it all played according to how I predicted them to go and I won the bet though I spent less than $1 just #1000 in my local currency to place the bet and i won close to $23 which is about #32000 in my local currency as well. Congratulations to me as i didn't expect this winning.

The continuous blackout in the country have made businesses both online and offline become difficult for people because a lot of business now requires steady light before success can be achieved and we all are aware of the high cost of petroleum products now and even sometimes, the sellers do hoard this products thereby making it difficult for people to get access to it and it causes scarcity. Now, I begin to think that since we are heading towards a digitized system now, it would be very important that we have light to power our online accessing systems always in other to get updated to the internet all the time and considering our hot weather here in Nigeria, I think the use of solar systems would be preferable though it's very costly but at least there are some solar systems that are still affordable and inasmuch as it can power our laptops, phones, gadgets and any other devices we can use to gain access to the Internet at least it would be a welcome development because even if one decides to use generators, there are times when your generator would just fail you unannounced then it would become a big disappointment in a case where you have something very important to do on the internet.

I want us to know that sometimes the things you see as little things and not too serious may not really be same with others as everyone needs to be careful more especially in this forum as everyone's activities in this forum is visible to others and any little mistakes can cause a lot of damages and it would be very sad that one's carelessness can affect the other person.

If you know you ain't on your right state of mind, please don't come to the forum to make any post because this place isn't social media where you feel you can do something and get away with it. I want us to understand that no matter how hard it is, never joke or compromise your reputation as it is what makes others to trust you and see you as someone with reputable characters. Make you no carry your "reggae go spoil another person blues" come dey call am mistake.

Ignorance is never an excuse in the sight of the law so, "I made a mistake" can cause even a lifetime damage to you or someone else that you have gotten into trouble with. Make we dey careful here abeg we no dey Facebook or Instagram for here.

"A word is enough for the wise" one love my Naija people as we move regardless of our dwindling economic challenges.

It got to my knowledge that a user here, agbamoni who mistakingly used my wallet address to apply for a loan. It is noted that I have already taken a loan with my USDT address of which I have paid part of the loan and I intend to clear the rest within the duration of the loan and i have no intention of taken another loan till the recent loan have been fully repaid as anyone who intend to use my USDT address to borrow any loan did it out of impersonation as i don't have any connection with such user. From my observation I found out that the user after using my address to request for the loan, edited his application and inserted his own address of which he had used to borrow a loan previously.

My intention of creating this thread is to vindicate myself as I'm still new into this forum and I value my reputation and integrity and wouldn't want anything that would dent it in the future hence my reason for "crying out loud".

It is so unfortunate how some gamblers become so addicted to the extent of selling off most of their properties just to play gamble even when they're aware of the risk that is associated with selling ones properties as you may not be able to replace that same property again even in your entire life.

I remembered some years back when an addicted gambling friend of mine sold his father's car and used the money to play gamble, and he ran out of the house to an unknown destination for over 3 years such that the parents where even looking for him to come back home regardless of the crime he committed because he was his parents only male child, so this friend of mine was invincible and without communication for 3 years and afterwards he returned home looking so unkept and his parents saw him and started crying that regardless of what he did that he wouldn't have ran out of their sight and he apologized for his actions and started living a different life. Just imagine the conditions he went through just because of taking a reckless decision that may have even taken his life because no one knows his activities as he left home and moreover he had already spent all the money gotten from the car he sold on gambling, so how he managed to survive without money and help from his friends and relatives for good 3 years is a risk no body would wish to take in life.

No matter how deep you are in gambling never you sell a property because you will surely regret it when it doesn't work the way you expected.

Have you ever sold a property to play gamble and afterwards finds it difficult to replace that same property again?

Gambling though is a risky game that the chances of winning and losing is in equilibrium but however in other for one to have a possibility of winning, it requires a steady income.

 Having a steady and regular income is very important as a gambler because it would enable you to scrap out money you should use for gambling, feeding, taking care of yourself and family and other miscellaneous.

A gambler who has a steady and regular income can have the possibility of winning because his gambling habit can not affect his personal obligations as a man even if he's an addict because being addicted to gambling doesn't actually implies that one will eventually stake all his money on bets but rather someone who plays gambling frequently. By having a steady income, he can take care of other life responsibilities without being affected by his gambling activities and moreover, someone who have a stable income can be aiming to win higher amount in his bets and might be lucky of winning one day and use the money to establish an investment.

Your thoughts on this

Online dating apps have been on the increase this days as people more especially men and women tends to meet one another through this dating apps but it is important to note the dangers that are involved in meeting someone for the very first time in your life as most people now use through this medium to commit various crimes to humanity.

We should also be careful of how we relate sensitive information to people we meet online, don't try to impress anyone by telling them what you are into or the kind of job you do until you've met them and possibly spent some time with them before you can relate some personal information about yourself. Don't try to impress people you meet online just because you want them to like you and bring their interest to you because by so doing, you might be endangering your life, your business or your money.

And moreover, we should be cautious and careful of people we meet online when you peradventure meet them facially as you need to observe them very well and always be careful about your drinks or your food while they're around you.

Announce your rank up, merit or any achievements that makes you feel great!

I go jam dis thread for Reputation board naim i say make i carry am come our local board because na there wey we go recognize our achievements for the forum pass so i say make i bring am come here because e get so many of us wey don achieve better tins since we join d forum and e go good say we talk am out so dat oda people go folo you happy too and e get one talk wey e be say "a closed mouth is a closed destiny" so as you dey talk out wetin you don achieve since you find your way for the forum, na so e go also open way for more greater achievement to dey come your way.

For me, I been don create thread before about my achievement after spending 10 days total login time on bitcointalk but since that time till now i don also achieve more things like last week naim i take rank up as a full member of dis our great forum, many of us wey start to build account from scratch know de feeling wen you rank up as full member becos na dat time e dey be like say de forum don recognize you as one of dem.

Anyhow wey e b make we talk tins wey we don achieve since wey we join de forum no matter how little wey the achievement be becos na from small something dey take dey big and any little tin wey person achieve for him life make him dey grateful and thankful and hope say in go achieve greater results for future. At dis juncture, I rest my case.

Some of us here were not actually doing very well before we joined this forum and people know that we don't have a job and a source of income but when we were introduced to this forum, we took time to build our accounts and were fortunate to join signature campaigns and we started earning income from it and things begins change differently in our lives as we were able to buy clothes, food, shelter and even extend hands to some of our loved ones and people begin to wonder what kind of job you're doing that you have suddenly changed to the extent of even rendering assistance to other people.

So my question is this, can we proudly tell people that we're Bitcoiners? And even if we do how can they be convinced that we're doing genuine work online since the society sees most people earning from online as fraudsters (Yahoo boys).

Marriage is a good thing as couples are meant to come together and plan how their marriage will work out for the both of them and it is advisable to empower ones spouse more especially the wife on what she will do in other to also ease the too many responsibilities imposed by nature on men.

Now there are some men that like their wives to just sit at home, take care of the kids and home while they go out to work in other to take good care of their family. And some of them place their wives on monthly salary such that at the end of the month they just send their salaries to them. Then there are also men that prefers giving their wives money to start up a business of her own in other to assist herself and the family as well. Now some men due to the fact that they established a business for their wives doesn't really care about the wife's needs as they will assume that her business can provide her whatever she needs.

Now my question is between having a house wife that will take care of your home and receives monthly allowance and establishing a business of her own for her which is more preferable and why?

This afternoon, I went to a bar to cool off my brain due to the hot weather then I was sitted peacefully sipping my glass of beer when I lady walked in and the waitress greeted the lady who happened to be her aunty so the Aunty started advising her to be calm and not follow wayward girls that doesn't add value to her life and the Aunty advised her not to date yahoo boys (internet scammers and fraudsters) then the girls mother who happened to be the beer parlour owner intruded in their conversation and said that there a genuine yahoo boys out there so if her daughter sees such a guy that she's gonna date him so the Aunty of the girl now told her sister being the mother of the girl that yahoo is yahoo that there's nothing like genuine yahoo boys.

Now, most of some wrong decisions some people take in life is being influenced by their parents and i now begin to wonder if in this situation of the conversation between this girl, her aunty and her mother is it also the government that told her to date yahoo boys? Like the numerous problems we are facing in this country can it really be channeled to our government because the reason why I'm asking is because had it been our government gave a conducive environment for it's citizens to be employed and have something meaningful they're doing with their lives they wouldn't be involved in frauds and other social crimes in other to make money and no parents can advise their children to marry or date fraudsters and criminals.

 So who is really the cause of the problems of the society???

Happy new year everyone.
I took time to go through the local boards in this Bitcointalk forum and I found out that almost all the local board apart from India and Nigeria are the countries that speaks English in their local board as all other countries speaks their own languages rather than English language so I now begin to wonder that is it really necessary for us to be speaking correct English in our local board while we can just be speaking pigin language since we don't have a unified language as a country.
So should we continue mixing English language with pigin language base on the fact that we don't have a common language that everyone can speak and understand or we should just make pigin language official in our local board?

Though for me I prefer make we use pigin as official language so that e go help those of our people here wey no too know how to speak correct English and when e be say if other people dey speak correct English Dem no go understand wetin Dem dey talk so that e go dey easy to carry everybody along for d local board. Although e get people wey dey use pigin dey write always for our local board but when other people dey take correct English dey discuss you go see say dose people wey dey use pigin write no go understand wetin Dem dey discuss.

This one na just to alert dose of us wey dey Mixers campaigns say the countdown to the ban na just one day left as in be say oga at the top we be theymos don say make we no dey promote mixers or write anything concerning mixers make we try to obey the instructions because me I believe say na for the good of the forum wey make him take that kind decision so anything wey so make this forum to dey under target by the government make we remove our hand because normally government dey find where faults go dey so that e go come be like say na In make Dem take the action and imagine if Dem come succeed shutdown de forum you and I know wetin in mean be that so abeg people wey dey wear avatar and signature of mixers make una try remove am tomorrow to avoid story dat touch because me I no go dey happy say one of us for here receive negative trust or tag because of carelessness so anyhow wey e be make we dey watch each others back and be our brothers keepers if you go to some local board like the Indonesia board you go see too many legendary wey gallant for dia so na base on their cooperation and understanding among themselves na in make e dey so, so make we try to dey assist ourselves to grow because na in be d only way we go achieve a new Nigeria.

I found out that some of us in this forum always give references of including our country in some of the post in the general board and I see it as unnecessary for us to be revealing the identity of our country in some post or threads here. It is important for us to note that even the developer(s) of Bitcoin Satoshi Nakamoto is anonymous, as his/their identity is not known thereby it is assumed that anything concerning Bitcoin or Bitcoin related activities shouldn't be made too expository due to some unforseen circumstances.

We should be very careful on how we go about publicizing ourselves in this forum. I urge us all to limit from exposing ourselves or our country in this forum, everything should be done on code in other to sustain our reputation and the reputation of our dear country. My humble opinion though, if anyone has any contrary view or support please the response session is Open.
