Stocks and real properties are two (2) different investment mechanisms that offers different approaches in order to be effective. It does not mean that if a person losses money frequently on the other, it concludes that investing on such is considered "bs" like what you just mentioned.

Again, while stocks or cryptocurrencies are intangible, it does not make them any less of each other. They have as much impact as any other investment, if not, better if the person knows how to deal with them and use it to their advantage. Having to hasty generalize that they are absolute trash is very fallacious, only depending it on your experience while not checking others.

I am actually guilty of this practice- I mostly store my coins inside an exchange rather than getting my person hardware wallet. The reason on why I do this practice is due to the convenience of placing it on our local exchange in the country (which is heavily regulated and requires the submission KYC documents to completely use it) where I have the freedom to convert BTC to our local currency.

Not to mention, we can also use the same local exchange in paying our monthly bills of electricity, etc. Though this may be the case, I think it is imperative that everyone should keep their BTCs in a hardware wallet due to the recent events of scams and hacks.

Remember that casinos are designed in order for them to profit. As this is considered as a business, releasing games that are mostly skilled-based (pvps, etc.) compared to the traditional luck-based games (poker, slots, etc.) would hurt the profit of the establishment. If a person can win purely based on skill, then it somehow eliminates the element of luck on which a casino is founded on gambling.

In conclusion, there would be no "gambling" per se and as it can completely change the whole business model of the casino. I think that is the reason on why gambling companies are hesitant to release such games to date.

Thank you very much for this information- but yea, I do agree that they held this tournament in a very weird date. In between Christmas and New Year where most people are busy, I hope it gains traction on the viewers as most would be very occupied at this time.

Speed chess and normal chess are two different worlds apart. In speed chess, not only do you have to recognize pattern in the openings but you must also based your move mostly on instincts as time is of the essence in this game format. In normal chess, it is more of tactics and technique where you should be playing 90-99% of the top moves in order to garner that advantage over your opponent.

I think that gambling can be more stressful than day trading.

Remember that in gambling, luck is the majority factor that can either make or break your day. A person with no skill at all can still win tons of money in gambling if he has the luck for the day. But a person who does not have any prior experience nor skill in trading is most likely to fail and to experience losses.

Though both have the element of luck present, you can at least lessen the chances of you losing if you have the knowledge and experience in trading.

I think I would prefer to invest it to BTC due to its value and volatility in the long-term strategy.

The problem with most altcoins is that its price is somehow slower to progress and develop, unlike in BTC where at least everyday, a news comes up and effects significant change. Like what most people have experienced, a single news that affects BTC could either make or break your investment overnight. So it really depends on the person on the risks that they have the shoulder.

Personally, I am willing to take that risk given that I have been reading/learning about BTC for the last five (5) years. If there is one thing that I have learned, it is always to trust the process!

Interesting, but I have some questions for you OP- are you working in a company or are you personally hired by your boss? Generally, wages are to be paid using the respective legal tender of a country and anything different from that may be considered void. Were you able to secure this kind of payment system with your boss?

I do hope that countries would definitely adopt cryptocurrency to their financials and adapt to its usage. With this kind of example, employers may give employees the freedom on how to choose their wages to be paid- either by fiat or by crypto.

I do not think that digital dollar would become a threat to BTC since they have different uses and purposes.

Digital dollar is the same as fiat- the only difference is the platform on where you can use it. In contrast, BTC is something that can be used as alternative payment if you want to secure your transactions in the blockchain. Again, like what I similarly comment on posts like these, both fiat/digital dollar and bitcoin can co-exist with each other. They can both be used as they can fulfill each other's roles effectively.

Not to mention, there are tons of sportsbook websites out there that are far more reputable and trustworthy. Though I am not completely dismissing OP's question of that website, but there are tons available that are well-received by this community.

Like what you mentioned, you are correct for doing the research in this forum first before putting any money. Again, prevention is better than cure and it is very wise for you to ask for feedback in the community before delving completely on it.

Generally, I think KYC was an issue for most players due to the sensitivity of information that they have to release. While this cannot be entirely avoided, I hope that there is a middle ground on how to address this.


Definitely some new and interactive games. Given that there are lots of online gambling websites nowadays, you have to create your own identity and games in order to retain your customers.


I think it has something to do with the overall aesthetics of the website. Given that there are poker games in every gambling company, you have to create your own identity and make the game somehow interactive to introduce change.


Mostly on all social-media platforms. To be honest, this forum is my main repository of cryptocurrency news and I definitely trust the reviews/feedbacks that others give and their respective insights on a given issue.

It depends on several factors but my go-to casino depends on their strict regulation. If you are curious in knowing what such factors are, then you should consider if an online gambling platform has KYC, free bonuses, sign-up freebies, and/or a consistent customer support service.

Basically, my go-to game is always blackjack due to the simplicity of it. Compared to other games, blackjack has that level of luck + skill combined where you based your decisions depending on a set of cards. Unlike slots in which you primarily result to absolute luck, in blackjack, there is still that element of skill + decision making whether to hit the cards or keep.

Every presentation has to be associated with preparedness. No matter how knowledgeable you are on a certain topic, if you do not have any presentation available, then it is actually a recipe for disaster. I would definitely recommend creating a flowchart/framework on how you would be able to explain the fundamentals of BTC. Divide the sections and explain them as if you are explaining something to a 5-year old for them to easily understand.

Another recommendation is to show visual aids during your presentation. This will not only help them picture what you are discussing but this will also make the presentation more interesting.

I do think that they are in the best situation right now as they can take advantage of their platform- which is being exclusively online. They have the upper hand when it comes to this kind of situation since they can take advantage easily of their users in gambling on their own convenience.

Remember that COVID taught us that an online set-up is more productive and manageable. With their current existence primarily online, the convenience of gambling online has skyrocketed ever since. That is why, I doubt they are coping and struggling with the current situation.

First of all, congratulations on your business OP! You are actually living the dream that most have aspired- accepting cryptocurrency as an alternative payment in their respective businesses. I remember a thread was posted here asking if there are any small-scale businesses accepting cryptocurrency as a medium of payment and you are the living proof that you are practicing this system.

Just a quick question though, how do you accept cryptocurrency on your business? Did you create an external wallet in order to keep all the funds sent? Another thing, did you encounter any issues with the payment given that you receive them after the confirmation of blocks?

I think some online casinos are designed an house edge in order to maintain their profits to their side. Maybe it is not in the form of algorithms but tit definitely has the device of having the edge on their side. Though this is the first time that I have heard about restricting their locations via changing their percentages of winning to their advantage in the event that the player is registered in a country that prohibits gambling.

Though this may be the case, I doubt that online gambling companies have such system stored and implemented. At the end of the day, if the person who gambles won but it was subsequently discovered that his act of gambling is prohibited, then the law enforcements of his/her country would do the rest of the arrests.

I do think that we are experiencing the era of side-hustles given that the technology worldwide is also developing in a rapid pace. Bearing this in mind, this creates an opportunity for the younger generation to explore this venture and see if they can actually profit from these side-hustles.

To be honest, this is the perfect time for everyone to experience the profitable side of cryptocurrencies. Its reputation across the globe is steadily increasing and more and more companies are starting to adopt it on their financials.

This is very interesting- I hope they do implement this kind of activity in some gambling websites to provide more action. I guess this e-sports somehow fill this role where a competitive scene can be seen and experienced.


Oh interesting so duelbits actually implemented this kind of gameplay on their website. How did it garner traction among its users? I guess the difficulty lies on the number of people that are interested in playing the game.

I definitely agree with your statement.

The feeling that a person has the power to spend due to credits is just potentially dangerous. They can definitely spend their month's savings in a day of gambling depending on the circumstances. Such kind of action is significantly detrimental not only to the lives of these gamblers but also to the credit company in realizing their payments. I hope that Australia becomes more proactive when it comes to solutions in dealing with gambling addiction.

I think the advantage of small-scale businesses is its regulation with the laws. Given that they are only "small-scale," the some government institutions somehow waives the right for them to comply with the existing licenses as a form of support and help. A good example is here in the Philippines, street vendors are not required to file taxes as a form of privilege to the needy.

I hope the government somehow adopts the same concept with cryptocurrency when it comes to regulation. The fact that there is that potential of cryptocurrency becoming an alternative currency for their services/products, the hope still remains that it will soon be accepted as a whole.
