I remember back in 2015, I used to accompany my brother into a casino where he usually bets around $100-$600 every time he gets his salary. He always brought me with him since he always told me to stop him whenever we see to it that he already won his winnings. So while I was strolling around, I got my $20 and tried betting it into blackjack. Fortunately, I won and my $20 became a $100 that night.

As someone who always gets a bad luck in gambling, I thought that getting $100 was fairly lucky. So what I did, I bought this new game at Steam for $90 but the day after that, black market happened and its price dropped from $90 to $20. I was so pissed to the point that I did not even bother touching the game after that event happened.

I will be completely honest- I never really understood on how NFTs were. I read countless of articles and watched YouTube videos explaining the basics of it but I just never fully grasped and understood its relevance.

One thing that they explained is that, it is like Mona Lisa- but you acquire something that has a digital marker which is unique and permanent. I mean, let us say you already have such piece, then what do you do with it? Unlike paintings where you can store them, a person can just screenshot from his own pc the picture or replicate it using some photoshop editing skills.

Like most have mentioned, NFTs will continue to exist as long as people pay money for it. Consider it as an extremely risky investment that may either make or break your resources.

MLM and gambling are two different activities but involve a whole lot of risk.

One might argue that a person "gambles" his money away and invests it on MLM schemes that offer higher returns compared to your usual investment plan provided by banks, etc. Gambling, on the other hand, is an activity where you risk your money through the participation of games, cards, etc. Their biggest difference is- MLM is an "investment" type of platform while gambling is an activity platform.

Both involve high amounts of risks but generally MLM schemes are typically created by shady companies in order to extract resources from you.

I think it does not have to do with the genes perse, but it has something to do on how the child is brought up with.

If the child, while growing up, was exposed severely to an environment where everyone around him suffers from gambling addiction, chances are that the child would inherit such lifestyle, thus sparking his curiosity. What matters is that, the child is exposed to an environment where learning and curiosity exists. Of course, genes may be a factor but it wholly depends on the environment and lifestyle he/she is brought up with.

Since you want to prevent KYC, I suggest selling your BTCs via p2p transactions between you and some other person. Though this mode may be risky, I highly recommend using an escrow to utilize the transaction to make it relatively safe and secured at the same time.

If abovementioned procedure fails, then I suggest creating an account in your respective local exchanges. Though KYC documents are needed, you can still create an account but you are faced with certain deposit/withdrawal limitations.

I think it is pretty normal for FUD to arise given the fact that most investors have released more than hundreds to thousands of dollars on this investment. The slightest increase/decrease on its price can mean millions of gain/loss on their end. Though FUDs are the normal occurrence of an investor, it must really understood that this opportunity must be taken advantage of.

Back in 2017, I started my journey in which the price of BTC was around $4,000. Lots of people were speculating that BTC is a 'bubble' that might pop soon. Though this may be the case, its price continued to rise which made at least everyone happy.

I do not think so but the impact could be on the amount of BTC they can wager.

Obviously, as the prices of BTC start to go down, more and more BTCs would be circulated to reach the current value they must bet. But people who bet using BTC at this time should definitely consider the investment aspect of it given that its price may reached another ATH of $60,000 within the next couple of months or even by next year. That is why, I always advise people to gamble using dollars or fiat instead of using cryptocurrencies.

Again, these kinds of post should not be taken seriously without substantiating any proof to the contrary.

Bitsler is one of those online gambling websites that have been around for years. Generally, online gambling websites should create and maintain a reputation wherein users would trust their credibility and business. That is why, having an active customer support is one of those key functions in becoming a successful online gambling company.

With your allegation, one must provide proof and evidence to establish a proper complaint. Have you talked to their customer service? Have you checked if you violated their TOS that warranted them to withhold some of your funds?

By a mile, education is indeed the best investment that a person can have. A person may be rich but education is something that is innate- one that cannot be taken away from you and one that can yield you constant reassurance and security of excelling in the future.

While that may be the case on your country, you still have to support your fellow citizens and countrymen. With this time where prices are high, constant support and help are needed. Even if you think that such people are taking advantage of their education, still, the relevance of education is so high to the point that such is considered a privilege.

I appreciate your time and effort for posting these important reminders, OP.

Generally, this forum is already big as it is considered the biggest cryptocurrency forum to date. Since this is the case, some people take advantage of this medium in order to create various scams and hacks in the forum which prompted some of our users to personally report all suspicious projects and/or links to certain boards for immediate action.

From my experience alone, I could say that you must really remain curious and vigilant in order to keep yourself safe from all the potential scams that constantly lurk here.

I actually agree with you- it does not mean that one incurs value overtime that means that they are on an equal footing with each other.

People tend to compared and conclude that BTC is the digital gold of this era. While that may be true in terms of inflation, their innate nature is different. While both may be non-renewable resources, gold has a natural intrinsic value; while the price of BTC is primarily derived from what people are willing to pay for it.

Again, fiat, gold, and cryptocurrencies may have different purposes but all of them have value.

Thank you very much for creating this thread! This is badly needed given the fact that the reputation of chess has been steadily increasing over the years.

With that being said, Nepo has been dominating the candidates again this year. He plays so dynamic and fundamental- even if his opponents are very well prepared, he seems to create ideas on the board which makes further complications.

While there may have been speculations and news regarding Carlsen's withdrawal of the WCC match, I doubt that he will hand it out easily to Nepo, if the latter would win this year again. Though I was specifically rooting for Caruana and Rapport, seeing a rematch between Carlsen and Nepo would still be a fun thing to watch!

KYC means "know-your-customer." This heavily implies that gambling websites require your personal information, whether it be your name and addresses, or more.
 
What is the danger behind this feature and why do gamblers avoid this? Well for instance, gambling companies exist on the internet. Since data is privately stored in their system, there is always that risk of leaking your personal information.

When your personal information gets leaked, everyone including their family members or friends are placed in a position of potential danger of misrepresentation. Hackers may use such personal information for their gain and advantage.

Before I answer the questions you put, I must inform you that you definitely did the right choice of RESEARCHING a certain gambling website before investing your funds into them. 1xbit is apparently famous in this forum due to the alleged scam accusations (though MOST have proven to be true). Unfortunately, the campaign is still being advertised here as negative trusted members applied for such advertising campaign signature.


Generally, almost every casino under the gambling boards are loved. If you see an active gambling board, most likely they have an active customer support service and playerbase.


In adherence to my answer above, I generally put my funds in blackjack.fun gambling website due to its overall simplicity and design. You can actively chat people there and see all the rankings of the top wagered amount.


I would say that blackjack.fun, duelbits, and fortunejack remain to be my favorite gambling websites. These gambling websites, especially FJ, have been around in the forum for years now. They also have an active campaign signature which implies that they continue to be active and profitable on both the player and the owner.

I wholeheartedly agree with you.

Unfortunately, there are newbies who primarily join this forum with an evil intent already in mind. They tend to apply for various of non-collateral loans in which they are not completely qualified for. Despite all the rules that have been posted and even warnings, these newbies still tend to violate the said rules which result to the banning of their accounts.

Again, just do not do anything that will get you into trouble. If you have a clear conscience with a willing mind to learn, then nothing will ever happen to your account.

While the rules and principles that you provided are the ideal attitude when it comes to gambling, everything is all easier said than done especially if you are the one suffering from addiction already. When a person suffers from it, they tend to forget all their morals and principles since what matters to them is that they are satisfied with their bets.

Though these principles are really useful and supportive in nature, I just hope that gamblers snap and realize that they are indeed suffering from one. Most of the time, they deny that they are suffering from addiction in the first place.

The risk and reward scenario is what captivates gamblers more into spending their resources into this activity. Unfortunately, when rich people are involved into this game, they pour at least majority of their resources into a single night which can yield them a profit/loss of around millions.

Imagine, building a career for years and years only to destroy it into an activity which involved a small amount of satisfaction. With tons of stories and millionaires suffering from gambling addiction, I just hope this becomes an eye opener to everyone about its destructive effects.

You have to keep in mind that investments are money in the sense that you can cash them out whenever you completely feel the need to do so. Let us say you have profited at least 10% from your investments and you badly need the cash for some emergency purpose, then feel free to do so.

Doubling your money from an investment is literally the dream scenario of every investor but this kind of event rarely happens. Especially that cryptocurrencies are high risk investments, you can either take that 20% profit or lose 50%, or the other way around.

When you invest in a certain mechanism, cashflow is liquid- this means that money is going well and being utilized in such technology. For example, if investment firms enter the economy of a country, they are dumping and adding their respective currencies to that country in which it is beneficial in terms of financing, etc.

Think about it this way- when you invest, your funds are earning on their own. If you store your money inside a safe box, the value will not increase (though it depends upon inflation). But when you invest, you are somehow doubling your funds on their own.

I remember back in 2017 where my friend in college introduced me this forum. At first, I was hesitant to join but when he showed me his actual funds and his bank account, I was convinced that there was something going on with this forum.

As a college student, earning money at the expense of working online is a big deal. Given that I also live in a third world country, competition is tough and any amount of money is seen as a necessity. I quickly learned the nature and foundations of cryptocurrency during the whole year of 2017 and I was able to participate into dozens of campaign signatures.

I was able to earn a hefty sum of BTC and I quickly converted them to cash to purchase some college books and materials. Though I would have profited even more if I HODL my coins, the necessity of my situation compelled me to do such thing and I regretted nothing about it.
