2101  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Google partners with Coinbase to accept crypto payments for cloud service on: October 14, 2022, 06:57:45 PM
As the title says, Google plans to start accepting crypto payments for their cloud service early next year via partnership with Coinbase. No matter  what people think about Coinbase and centralized exchanges in general this is a good news and a step in the right direction regarding crypto adoption.


Google (GOOGL) will start accepting crypto payments for cloud services early next year, according to a press release.

Announced Tuesday at Google’s Cloud Next conference, the tech giant said it will receive crypto payment via an integration with crypto exchange Coinbase (COIN).

Crypto payments will initially be rolled out to a handful of customers involved in the Web3 industry. Google will also user Coinbase's custody service, Coinbase Prime.

This is really good news. Adoption is finally speeding up little by little. Thats exactly what I like to see. An entire country adopting Bitcoin is one thing but the fact that Google is adopting Bitcoin... Thats like a part of every country in the world in the metaphysical sense. So a lot of people will start turning to Bitcoin as a currency. I do wonder how long it will take now for Bitcoin to become the global money. A few more years? Perhaps a decade?

Decentralization is too amazing not to be considered an integral part of the future of human technology. The more Bitcoin adopters we have, the more people start learning and understanding this.

You newbies should refrain from panicking over every dip. I understand Bitcoin volatility is something new to you guys but do not flip-flop your trades until you made gigantic losses from either missing the pumps or grinding down your funds with trading fees. Its never worth it to panic. Be strong.

Posting topics like this one might give you the false impression that we somehow know what the price will be better than most people, or perhaps you want to crowd-source the most probable price prediction. But at this does is make you more worried and make others more worried as well.

Whales use this against you to buy your coins at unfairly cheap prices.
2103  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Social Betting Platform - Bet Your Beans - Betting Application Feedback on: October 14, 2022, 04:17:17 PM
Hey Everyone

I'm here representing the team at Bet Your Beans, founded by Matt Campbell and myself. We are developing a social betting platform that centers around p2p betting, gamification aspects such as leaderboards and profile customization, crypto movement bets and sports content. We aim to create a platform that merges online betting with social media in order to provide a fun community betting experience. Withdrawals will be instant, there is no house edge as the user creates their own betlines/odds, the betmaker owns the smart contract so the funds always remain in the possession of the bettors.

My question for you all is what are the most frustrating aspects of the online crypto betting applications you use? For me I can't stand a messy layout or massive delays on payouts. If there is anything that bothers you about your current online betting experience please let us know so we can create the most accessible betting experience available.

Regards,
Sam

Welcome to our humble little forum, Sam. I hope your gambling platform does very well and gains the trust of our community by active engagement and good moral conduct. As far as my thoughts on your gambling platform go:

The slogan "bet your beans" seems like an extremely dangerous betting experience (for a man). Are you sure thats the marketing approach you want to take with advertising gambling? I might be wrong, I would love to know the reason behind the slogan.

As to the things I cannot stand in betting apps: Delays, bugs, and bad user experience design.
2104  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is it good that the Bitcoin community acts like a cult? (Podcast) on: October 14, 2022, 12:48:19 AM
Cults usually involve something dark and secretive. Like giving your cult members poisoned koolaid. Thats a cult. This what we have? Its not a cult. Its a club. Anyone is free to join, anyone is free to leave and obviously some of us will be more fanatical or less fanatical about Bitcoin than others. As long as you enjoy Bitcoin and talking about Bitcoin then this is the right place for you. Thats really all it is.

I just realize that sounded like something a cult recruiter would say. 

Anyway, we're not a cult.

Yet.

awesome concept but terrible audio. The tiny lag I can tolerate but the sound keeps clipping like its glitching in and out. And its being stretched out like its being played at half speed.

Now if there is a online mortal kombat 2 we can play as multiplayer on some site, that would be the bees knees. Man. I would kick everyone's butt with Subzero.
2107  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Sites in the Country doest allowed on: October 13, 2022, 06:29:14 PM

What strategy do gambling developers to expand their market to countries which do not allow any type of gambling?
Do they continue with allowing users to use VPN, or do they have "some trick"?

I ask the question because curious many gambling sites operated in "that country" look to exist and are very developed with a big profit of billion of dollars.

I don't know exactly, I had a bad thing on my mind, they are bribing government officials and Police in order to keep operating, This is my assumption only, maybe you are here and can tell the truth.


Gambling developers will have enough work with or without providing their development services to shady gambling businesses that operate in grey zones or illegal zones. As far as the question of VPNs go, I think that gambling casinos do not actually care about who uses a VPN and who does not as long as there is nobody winning absurd sums of money or acting suspiciously. In which case they can ask for a KYC and if you do not do it then they can freeze both your account and your funds.

How far people go to make money in illegal environments is really left up to the individual person. But I think everyone is well aware of the risks.
2108  Economy / Gambling / Re: Regulations & Gambling projects on: October 13, 2022, 06:05:28 PM
When regulation takes a hit on crypto prob in few years from now what will happen to gambling projects like Roobet and others? I've discovered one gambling project claiming to be regulated but there is nothing to prove that, anyway, can regulation affects gambling projects in future that's all I seek.

I do not expect regulation to have any kind of effect to the extent that you are imagining. If anything the governments of the world will try to squeeze the centralized end-points of service providers which deal with cryptocurrency rather than trying to regulate a decentralized entity as it has been trying to, for a long time. And it has not succeeded even a bit. As far as gambling goes, I expect something of decentral and unregulatable nature to develop sometime in the next years in the gambling world. So regulations from the goverment will be as meaningless as they are now. If not even more.
2109  Economy / Gambling / Re: Do you visit the casino while travelling? on: October 13, 2022, 12:15:49 PM
I did like to travel to Las Vegas in the United States (obviously) to visit a few good casinos but nowadays the gambling experiences have been completely rebuilt. I do not like the modern offline gambling experience. You want to play slots? You have to go buy a piece of paper that says you have "funded" your account with a certain amount of money but you are not allowed to directly use coins anymore. Its basically playing online slots but in a different physical place. So what is the point anymore? Some slot machines used to use levers, then it was buttons now those buttons have turned into flatscreen. What an exciting experience. Pressing a large screen. Like you can't do that on your phone.

Lets remember back on the court hearing of faketoshi : even the judge could not stop himself from trolling fake-toshi.

Most of them do not make sense. Who cares about Silkroad or the murder-for-hire wanna-be gangster Ross Ulbricht? I also refuse to have a holiday with faketoshi's name in it. What the shit.

2113  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Does everyone want bitcoin to be stable in price? on: October 12, 2022, 06:34:28 PM
I was reading some of the replies in of @mr_jk's thread when he asked what will happen if bitcoin's price became stable?

The replies were unexpected hehehe. Much of them argued why or how can bitcoin be stable? This makes me ask the question do much of the holders of bitcoin want the price to be stable or do they really want it be volatile? I ask this because stability makes bitcoin become a good store of value and medium of exchange. Volatility makes it good for trading and speculation.

Stability is boring. Stability is living life in a perpetual state of Zugzwang of the highest order. To live a life without risk and chance of gain means there is so little to strive for, as it all evens out anyway.

I think the fact that Bitcoin has a volatile price is a good thing. It reflects how much profit potential there exists thanks to whales selling and buying all while Bitcoin slowly but surely rises in its core value. A smart man would take advantage of the whales and let them provide the cheap coin.

Buying the dips kills the whale Smiley  
2114  Economy / Gambling / Re: To what extent do you chase anonymity while gambling? on: October 12, 2022, 05:49:19 PM
Hey guys.
Choosing crypto in casinos has always also to do with more anonimous gambling.
Anyway I'm curious how important is anonimity to you when you pay & play?


That depends on many things such as on the overall environment and situation, mainly.

If I want to keep my funds safe, from a legal standpoint, then I would not trust a third party like an online gambling casino without a strict KYC and regulatory entity controlling their every move and looking behind their shoulder. Otherwise any casino could just claim whatever they like and take your money for whatever reason. And then you would have the trouble of convincing anyone that indeed the money belongs to you. So obviously anonymity is not worth it, in such a decentralized place.

But if you said there was a decentralized gambling casino that does not run on trust but on blockchain verification, then obviously I would want to keep my anonymity.

His last posts were two months ago. Time to let the thread die.

I think most of the time we are not posting exclusively for the OP to read it. We are showing to other people that "poker courses for sale" is nonsense, and for those who still need something like that we are giving answers about how to play poker for free. Isn't it amazing that someone interested in buying poker courses can read this thread and get more useful info than form any courses in the world? Smiley


Even though we do that, (which I find useful and very great as a fantastic reading resource for the community as a whole) it still remains to be said that even with our precautionary posts on this thread, there will still exist people who believe guys like OP who claim to know some secret, magic BS way of making money out of air. Its a bit sad, really. Especially for the complete newbies who have no idea what they are in for and might come to hate this forum just because they got duped by some guy like OP. It would be, in my thinking, a better forum if we actively started deleting and banning such posts.

2117  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Elon Musk is one of the keys to be 100k$ per Bitcoin? on: October 11, 2022, 04:42:49 PM
Hes a market manipulator who pumps shitcoins like doge. What more do you want to know?

Elon Musk has proven time and time again that his sole reason for existing is to stroke his astronomically-giant ego. But now he has received a hit to his reputation as not only did he ask for payment for his Ukrainian Starlink services, he is also meddling in politics with tweets that only a crackhead would think a good idea to publish on Twitter. Especially he should know the weight of his words, but he does not behave intelligently. He behaves like a cocky celebrity who lets real scientists, engineers and developers do the real work and come up with the ideas. He himself is a businessman with an ego. Nothing more and nothing less.

He is Edison without the know-how.
2118  Economy / Gambling / Re: STAKE SCAMMED $100K AND NOT REPLYING EMAILS FOR 6 MONTHS on: October 11, 2022, 04:33:23 PM


I don't really know whom to believe at this point but i must say you have a very slim chance to be trusted from the above trust rating given to you by some reputable users.
Secondly to back your claim you need to provide some tangible and a cogent evidence to back the proof you were scammed $100k without a feedback till date.

when casino owners are DT on forum there is little you can do when they scam you. They scam you plus leave bad feedback .. do they have any proof of match fixing? if yes please show me

NotATether    2022-03-15    Reference    Fake KYC and match fixing

And this is not only the sole rating. 3 other well respected members of this forum seem to all agree.

But if you can provide counterproof, we are always looking for the truth. Although it seems the truth is simple and plain here. You went against the terms of service and put the casino in a very bad legal situation. So now they are obviously not allowed to give you access to your funds due to the fact that you might be living in a country they are not allowed to offer services in.

My thoughts: Worst case scenario you will fight for your money back in court. But as you did not provide KYC I am thinking the reason for that is because you live in a country with strict gambling laws and otherwise would not have been allowed to create a stake account. So you kind of screwed yourself.

Next time read the Terms of Service before you go around whining about getting caught breaking rules. Roll Eyes
