What most people around me encounter is selling their smartphones to gamble, and some people also pawn them. Most of the gamblers in my area are slot gamblers, only a few play soccer betting, and there are also those who play both. Not a few of them also borrow money from friends, with other small property as collateral such as motorbikes, I haven't found anyone who sells cars, that's very risky in my opinion. As for this model of gambler, it is clear that they are addicted, it is difficult for them to give up this bad habit.

Of course the risk of regret always comes last, but most of them are very prepared for any risk, and will sell any property they can cash in on. The impact of gambling is very big, making you bankrupt and losing almost everything you have. Family, career, savings and future are at stake if you continue to gamble, most addicted gamblers will also avoid people who give them advice. I think if they are at the stage of selling the property to gamble, then they will no longer listen to any advice.

Friendly bump, as I think the forum still need more reliable sources

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

By a lucky occasion Cloudflare isn't blocking me from accessing Bitcointalk today and I can finally reply.

What d5000 answered above is still relevant and can be taken as a full answer. We are still hesitant on adding Tron or Avalanche. We don't trust both project founders and specially the latter.

In other words, this really isn't a scam accusation, just a complaint without much basis.  I understand how problem gambling can wreck lives, OP.  I sincerely hope you can get your life back on track if you've suffered any of the consequences of it--and if not, I hope you never learn how bad it can get.

100 posts per week? Dude lives in the USA, how does he manage to do that? I am kinda curious sometimes when I see people from rich countries posting here a lot, are most of you retired? If not, how do you manage to post and work at the same time? I personally work in a good company where I am not occupied 100% of the time and I manage to visit this forum and post sometimes, it's kinda entertaining and I get some new information while interacting with people. I prefer it over Reddit.

About TRC-20 stablecoins, they have already written in this thread in November that they're perhaps interested, see here. They're however generally sceptical regarding Tron.
As for other Ethereum alternatives with stablecoins, in the same post they wrote about Polygon too (they were considering adding it, but sceptical due to the high fees close to Ethereum's, which may have changed), and this post probably means that they're not eager to add Avalanche, although the post is related to a bridge, not to stablecoins.

(I answer here just because I remembered these posts exch made in November. Of course their policies may have changed and I actually would also love some new alternatives.)

Even if they've refunded OP and get into a resolution off-screen, or [if we assume for a while here] OP did not tell the full story and there are more to tell, I think the taint on their reputation is already done and can't be erased. They've show that they overcomplicate things, requesting way too intrusive KYC despite their claim of supporting privacy, and --the most important-- no one can guess whether their fund will get through or get confiscated when dealing with their platform, given they have their own blocklist and taint measurement.

They're a CEX after all, of course Binance will want to stay in business, I don't think they're of interest if they keep on delaying or avoiding the regulations that's being imposed on them by the government, too bad that they do delisting of these privacy coins especially Monero but I do salute their stance about privacy and that they're never compromising, love that idea that there's still people in this world that will stand on principle and not worship money.

They lied. That should tell you everything you need to know:

This is off-topic but yeah that is definitely nuts. Its a major blow to the spirit of cryptocurrency in general. I understand they want to be in line with whoever's regulations, but still... Sad that this is what its come to. At least they are still available on Kraken and KuCoin. Bitfinex as well apparently. Down 24% now... seems like an overreaction.

Bitcointalk.org didn't exist when satoshi was active:

This is often brought up by a certain troll. In my opinion, it doesn't matter: "the forum" is more than just the URL, it's the entire post database and it's users, and that database was transferred to a new domain name after satoshi's last post. The users moved too, and some of the old users are still active today.

Yes, If I'm not wrong then the forum was first moved to Forum.Bitcoin.org and then on Bitcointalk.org, a crawl of the old forum is available on WayBack machine on Archive.org and one can see that how the forum used to look back in 2010. Most of the members moved from both websites and finally settled down on this URL.

If I'm not wrong then Satoshi was part of this same forum but he wasn't present when the forum was shifted to Bitcointalk.org. The best thing is that all of the posts of Satoshi are present on this forum and that's more than enough for us.

They are stickied at the top of Blockchair's website, for instance.

Actually I don't invest in the bankroll at all. I also would have expected investors to divest a little by now. Using the same methodology I used earlier in the thread I reckon the expected annual returns are only around 6%, which doesn't seem that attractive given the risk.

If anything, it makes more sense to say that privacy coins are used for money laundering rather than bitcoin mixers are used for it. There are many articles that talk about Monero and money laundering but you hear mostly Bitcoin because it's a mainstream currency and media will attract attention with talking more about Bitcoin.
By the way, criminals not only launder money via mixers but via banks too. JP Morgan is the best destination for money laundering but no one bans them or talks about them.
