I am against the decision of looking for loopholes in order to gamble. it is as easy- if your country bans/prohibits a certain gambling website, then look for an alternative instead of looking for loopholes. In the event that you get caught, then you would have to suffer the consequences of losing your gambling proceeds. It is like you are always walking on fire and putting your proceeds at risks every time you gamble on a prohibited foundation and setting.

It depends upon your goal but if you are planning on HODLing for long-term, it is generally a good time to invest into cryptocurrencies.

Prices of BTCs nowadays are fluctuating even before the Russia-Ukraine war. It has been steady at around $38-40,000 for about 1-2 months now but there are times were it jumps. If you plan on HODLing for long-term, then it is a good time to invest and purchase BTCs, if possible. But, if you plan on going short-term, then you have to prepare a definite plan on when to cash-out to at least maximize your profit in the end.

Like what I experienced last month, sobrang higpit ng coins.ph dahil sa kanilang 'enhanced KYC' feature where yung account limit and verification ko was put into hold. When I inquired na ma-lift yung restriction, I had to provide extra KYC documents (i.e. ITR, tax declaration, BTCTALK forum account details, GCASH transactions, etc.) just to prove na legitimate yung sources of my funds and kung saan nanggagaling yung proceeds of my BTCs.

What bothered me is yung time para ma-approve lahat ng ito. Siguro it roughly took me ~2-3 weeks before natapos yung buong process. Pero at least, constantly kausap ko yung representatives ng coins.ph kaya madali din naman sila makausap at makahingi ng updates.

I think nakikita na natin ang epekto ng gera between Ukraine and Russia lalo na't kung titignan natin yung prices ng gas ngayon. Grabe, from P50-P80 per liter ng gasolina ngayon. This makes me appreciate and think of buying a bicycle kasi sobrang mahal na talaga ang gas to the point na mas pipillin mo na lang din mag commute kesa mag dala ng sariling kotse. Since nag mamahal din ang gasolina, expect din siguro natin na within a few days, mag mamahal na din siguro ang commuting fees sa bansa (which I do hope hindi sana mangyare).

But totoo, kapag may gera ay lahat talaga ng bansa ay apektado. Bababa ang market at baba din ang presyo ng stocks and cryptocurrencies.

James Harden is a player that can definitely improve the efficiency of a team along with his superb passing skills and court-vision. During his time with Houston, he has proven countless of times where he can always dish a tandem of 1-2 along with his center Capella. He somehow reminds me of this era where there was a PG+CENTER duo (i.e. stockton + malone, kobe + shaq, etc.).

Now that Harden has an center that is arguably the best one in the league right now, it is nothing but obvious that he will fit Philly's team chemistry and composition which will make them a contender for this year's playoffs.

Too bad if this casino has a somehow complicated reputation- I really like the cartoonish purple design of the overall gambling website. It is something that is pleasing to the eye and the animations are somehow liquid and fluid throughout my observation.

Though what I noticed is a lack of any chat boxes where I can see people socializing and communicating to each other. In that way, you would see on how lively the website is along with all the people that visit it.

If OP wants to increase further its reputation, I suggest that he may try to advertise it through the use of campaign signatures in the forum.

Personally, I think the forum looks fine- an old-school designed forum with old-school features. Though I also want some improvements on its user-interface (i.e. easier methods to apply pictures and/or GIFS; simpler codes or shortcuts, etc.) I think making this kind of feature will not hurt in any way.

This is indeed, the biggest cryptocurrency forum around the world, so you are definitely right that this forum is lagging behind implementing some new features and improvements. Let's take reddit for example- over the years there had been vast improvements in terms of its UI. But one thing that I consider essential is having an online application in the phone.

I definitely agree with your statement.

With China being the number one country for exporting not only products but also manpower, I doubt that countries would impose sanctions as they also benefit from this country. With manpower and labor relatively cheap for doing business, countries around the world rely on China in assembling their products or doing labor for the production of their goods.

China has all the power to at least trade normally with Russia as they are confident enough to understand that other countries need them also.

This will definitely affect the PR of cryptocurrencies in general. Given that BTC can be easily transacted under the blockchain, this would not only help boost the reputation of BTC but this will also support Ukraine in providing for relief and funds for the displacement of their citizens.

In this war, Russia successfully proved many things: they proved that despite their military expertise, they can be outclassed by Ukraine and NATO forces; that majority countries in the world condemned the aggression of Russia and on how people are united against them, etc.

I had the privilege of visiting a physical casino recently and it seems that most people avoid using such. Generally, most of the gamblers I have witnessed focused more on card games. Rarely do I see people gambling on slots.

The question is- why do people avoid gambling into slots? Though I do understand that the jackpot is indeed high, is the risk of losing money too high that it outweighs its winnings compared to gambling on card games?

This is one of those problems that everything that exists in the internet faces- hacking through the cyberweb.

Imagine, Mt. Gox, the largest exchange which handled 70% of all the BTC transactions, were hacked and majority of the BTCs stored were stolen by scammers. Since the nature of cryptocurrency transactions can only be traced through wallet addresses (though this can easily be remedied by using mixers), those hackers were able to run with a hefty amounts of BTC in their pocket.

Similar to gambling websites, they should at least have a contingency when faced with this problem. Some banking institutions have insurance to their current members though I doubt that gambling websites would offer this kind of privilege to its members (but it's more than welcome!).

So Magnus was able to win the entire Airthings Master Finals 2022 when he managed to beat Ian Nepomnaitchi in the final day of the match.

Surprisingly, Magnus won two (2) games both as white and black. On the first game, Ian terribly blundered/sacrificed his horse which costed him the match. On the second game, however, Magnus was able to produce winning ideas in which Ian failed to spot. A lot of people are saying that Magnus was not in shape in this tournament, but the fact that he won shows his continued dominance throughout.

It is very unfortunate that you were scammed in order to learn your lesson. But anyway, a lesson is a lesson no matter how costly it might be. Since you now have the experience of dealing with scammers who take advantage of such emotion, you now have the responsibility of at least letting others know on how such scam operates in this field.

Again, like other similar scams, any person, who is a stranger, that asks for a hefty sum of money for 'investment purposes' should always raise a red flag about their authenticity. If they keep on asking for more money without even providing any actual results or data, this should trigger and alert you that one might be actually a scam on your end.

Things like these are the perfect avenue for scammers to take advantage of an unfortunate scenario. Unfortunately, there are scammers who spread and create fake addresses on the internet posing as donations for Ukraine, but in reality, are scams.

Before people should decide to invest, proper research and responsibility must remain. Be vigilant and remain suspicious until all other sources confirm that such addresses posted are the genuine ones that are created by the government of Ukraine itself.

The game between Magnus and Nepo in Airthings Masters Finals 2022 was just a privilege to watch!

We get to see an action between the former candidates challenger Nepo and Magnus battling each other in rapid format. Though 4 games ended in a draw, there were missing chances on both players on all of those games. As you can see, Nepo clearly wants to play chess and avoid any classical variations as he is exploring different opening repertoire to his disposal.

No one. In a state of war, all countries that are involved suffer as it would deplete all the resources of such that would also create a turmoil and disrupt the world economy.

In a state of war, countries would have to invest into military infrastructure, manpower, and weapons. All of the resources that are supposed to be allotted to projects would be turned converted to military resources in order to at least save the country. The war between Russia and Ukraine would definitely suffer the global market as it would be a domino effect in a full-scale invasion.

I doubt that by prohibiting BTC, it will stop the dominance that it effects produced on the market nowadays.

With a currency that can be transacted without the need of any third-party consensus, it is obvious but to see that cryptocurrencies will soon dominate the era of conventional and traditional currencies. People would soon migrate to this kind of transaction where everything is reflected in a public ledger in which no one can even alter or change.

I really do think that BTC is the future of payments whether countries prohibit or ban it or not. Regardless of what countries see it, slowly, its legalization and utilization is felt throughout the world.

Actually totoo yung sinasabi mo since medyo gray area nga kung paano din magkakaroon ng tax dito sa cryptocurrencies. Given the fact na medyo complicated din ang sistema ng BTC, medyo nakadepende ito sa Congress kung anong aspect yung paglalagay nila ng tax dito. Pero to be honest, this could actually make or break cryptocurrencies sa ating bansa, but then again, this implies regulation and control to the government.

I just hope lang na madami pang mga tao ang malaman tungkol sa mga cryptocurrencies kasi baka nga ito ang next generation of payments in the very near future.

This question is purely subjective on the fact that it depends on one's country.

Personally here in my country, money is very liquid. Businesses are thriving and prices (inflation) is growing from time-to-time. Gasoline prices are all spiked up and prices of general goods have been steadily increasing in the past few months. Though this may be the case, the government has implemented various financial projects to at least address this issue.

OP, if you are living in a country where there are financial challenges due to various concerns/reasons, then I would understand your scenario as majority of the funds are being allotted somewhere else.

I highly agree with you. If there is an unknown person who contacted with you stating that they are an investing firm and required you to invest a minimum amount of money, then it is highly likely that such is a scam. No matter how pleasing the rates they may offer, you could never really trust anyone on the internet until you have verified all their documents supporting their project/investments.

OP, good thing you were able to avoid this kind of scam on Facebook. Normally, lots of newbies tend to be persuaded by scammers who offer significantly high rates in hopes of attracting them.
