2241  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is the best way of contacting steamers who do live stream their gamble? on: September 12, 2022, 01:14:21 PM
Hi guys! I need some good streamers who do live stream their gamble. So what is the best way of contacting them? If you know about it, or you have a good list of streamers please share. Or if you are a streamer you can contact me, and we can make a suitable deal for streaming. Thank you.

It sounds like you did absolutely no research at all and your entire marketing campaign is based on a blind approach of hoping to find the right people by pure chance. This is not a good approach, when it comes to a marketing strategy.

If you want to do things right you need to research what kind of streamers you need, who their viewers are, how much they charge, and what the usual costs for streamers are. Otherwise you are throwing money away at someone who might charge you too much for advertising to a crowd who are not interested in whatever you have to offer.

Have you identified who you want your audience to be? Not all the gambling streamers have the same audience. Gambling =/= Gambling. Narrow into a laser-like focus.

Contacting streamers is easy. The ones who want to make money will gladly give you a way to contact them.
2242  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Fiat Banks Conspiracy Against Customers. Bitcoin is the Best Option on: September 12, 2022, 12:45:27 PM
This is exactly the way that people find out that they need to abandon banks and adopt Bitcoin instead. Banks are a dying breed, just like VCRs or floppy disks. There is absolutely no more need for banks with cryptocurrency. Bitcoin can give people everything that Banks can give them. Except it does not charge hidden/any holding fees and nobody can freeze/take over your money with Bitcoin. This is true independence. True freedom.

How long until everyone in the world understands this?

Personally, I will never put more money in the bank than I plan to spend on the same day. And even then it feels disgusting to have to use these "middlemen" because not every shop has adopted cryptocurrency yet.

The day will come. Have patience and spread the word.

I don't think banks will ever die simply because they have governments' full support. They will simply create their own digital currencies to "compete" with Bitcoin. People will stay with Fiat even if they won't have full control over their money. If only Bitcoin had widespread merchant acceptance and price stability, things would've been different. The vast majority of businesses and merchants accept Fiat on top of Bitcoin, so there's that. At least, people have an escape route from the current monetary system controlled by central banks and governments worldwide. As long as decentralization prevails, it'll be possible to enjoy true financial freedom. Just my thoughts Grin

Once governments themselves become decentralized, or at least something similar to it, we will never have to worry about banks or other institutions having an unfair and unjustified advantage over us in the form of arbitrary government-dictated regulation. If the people will want to have banks, they will have banks. If they do not want banks, they will not have banks. There will be no more "you need to have banks, whether you want or not". Bitcoin is the very first form of the new democracy, a true democracy. I believe this will definitely evolve into other areas other than finance in the future. Especially politics.

This is the first time I've heard of BC.Game and it is advertised as one of the top 3 gambling platforms in your site. Apparently they already have a thread here in the forum though not as active as other gambling platforms out there. I'm quite interested on how your ranking system works. Are you independently reviewing these sites without payment from these platforms themselves? I know paid reviews are a thing right now, though there are still some review sites that are not giving in to these offers and are still giving their honest reviews. I just want to know how you came up with the rankings.
^Definitely right!
Upon ranking them, it should have come from a review of the community the same as other affiliate websites do.
Independently reviewing sometimes reviewers think it is biased and possible you have been paid by the company to make them always on top of those various gambling selections. However, I wonder why my favorite gambling casino in poker was not there on the list, instead, they are all unpopular to me which I don't think if I will trust them.

You should not trust any review or reviewer website. They are never independent but rather paid off and their reviews are just paid advertisements made to look like real reviews. To me its all mostly fake and bullshit. OP should mention if his website has any serious people backing it or if they have any partners who are known in the online gambling community and are willing to endorse his advertisements.

The first thing I like to look at is not the website build itself but the team behind it. If they have a license they should not be hiding the faces of the most people responsible for the project.

At the very least they should at least prove to be legitimate. That is not really asking for too much, is it?
2244  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Regulations on proof of work might be coming on: September 10, 2022, 03:30:35 PM
The problem is temporary. Unless mining becomes a greener thing, it will be stomped on by regulators, however unsuccessfully. But making mining greener will make it more expensive. Which may raise the Bitcoin price so that might be a good thing. And for the planet as well.

But the overall problem is not the energy needed for mining but rather how that energy is created. Until the government decides to throw away all the dirty energy production methods and go for the more expensive (for now) green energies, this problem will persist. Just progressing more slowly. So the long term solution they should be looking for is clean energy production.

The FUD might make people who think this might have a negative impact on the price of Bitcoin panic sell for a short while though.
2245  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Are candlestick patterns overrated? on: September 09, 2022, 05:10:47 PM
Candlestick patterns are not some subjective study of the ups and downs of the market but rather reflect real numbers and actual market sentiment. So why you or anyone would consider them overrated is a bit of a mystery to me. But that being said, you cannot view candlestick patterns without looking at the bigger picture of whats happening to the volume, the rsi, and of course most importantly the news related to the investment which the candlesticks are reflecting. Looking at candlesticks alone may be not ideal or even a mistake that you could lose all your money on but its definitely a good visual metric on whats currently happening. If I see a hgue dump then I know there will be some bad news behind it.
2246  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The Rise of Mobile Gambling Is Leaving People Ruined and Unable to Quit on: September 09, 2022, 04:05:08 PM
Mobile gambling is really too convenient. I agree on that part. The easy accessibility is a problem because it really paves the road to a quick addiction. Its not really the same thing as physical gambling or even gambling on your desktop computer / laptop because its a completely different experience, so there is no point in comparing the different kinds of gambling.

This is obviously a new type of gambling addiction and probably needs a lot of new kinds of regulation laws to keep kids and endangered individuals like already known gambling addicts away from it.

Since its still in its early stages as any new tech, we will see a "wild west" and during that period a lot of people are going to suffer damage from it. Maybe the best thing to do right now is find a way to minimize the fallout?

I would maybe say that special licenses should be required and should only be given to online gambling businesses that have already proven to be responsible.
2247  Economy / Economics / Re: US congress set to consider legislation to BAN proof of work on: September 09, 2022, 02:46:53 PM
Bitcoin is always up for the challenge. Especially when that challenge includes governments trying (and failing) to regulate Bitcoin. The problem is that if they go against centralized giant miners, that may have an impact, probably short term, on the price of Bitcoin. Long term, we will find ways to outsource the mining to different countries. In fact I would say this ban of proof of work would only truly hurt Bitcoin if they banned proof-of-work mining in countries which actually offer good incentives for mining in the first place. Cheap electricity, cheap storage place, lax regulation laws and so on. But nonetheless the title of this thread is misleading. I would not say the US congress set to consider legislation for banning proof of work but rather that they are weighing their options. And I do not think they would consider redundant measures viable. Miners will find other ways and places to mine.

All the US would do is deprive itself of taxes from mining operations.



2248  Economy / Gambling / Re: What is a game you would like to see in an online crypto casino? on: September 09, 2022, 02:12:17 PM
~ But if you play this game in real life, you can influence the outcome, depending on your skills. If you played such game in an online casino, it would be a 100% luck based game, like dice or plinko games, or similar. I'm not saying that this game, or color game, shouldn't be implemented, though. Surely, such games will find their audience among luck based games lovers.

Yes, you're right, but I think the developers could devise a way to use the force with which the hoop is propelled and that helps to place or not on the stick, it's something like the Angry Birds game, where there was a kind of strength meter and this can lead to more accuracy in the shot, I had one of those games in real life and inside it was water, but many factors influenced it, because if you moved, everything moved and helped to score or take out the hoops, it could also be considered that level of difficulty for an online casino, where instead of one moving it, the casino makes it move and thus it is more difficult to hit the hoop.

To be honest, I'm not sure about the possibility of adding such a thing to the game. Are there online games where your physical force is a factor? I think there are no such games online because they can be easily exploited by malicious attackers.

What do you mean by physical force as a factor in online gambling games? Do you mean buying a special tool which measures your force and submitting your results online? That sounds like an interesting concept. But you would still have to invest in the mentioned tool if you wanted to compete, as that is not something you could do simply using your computer. And even then people would find ways to cheat and I doubt there would be good ways to control that nobody cheats.

You would not even need the tool to cheat, you would just write some code that emulates the tool and just let the code work automatically for you while you win everytime. Does not seem like a good idea to me. Interesting, just not viable very much.

I think we need games where such things as cheating are made impossible by the main control being on the server side.
2249  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is your plan with Bitcoin? on: September 08, 2022, 03:35:11 PM
My plan is to never sell and continue to be part of Bitcoin worldwide adoption as the global money. I do plan to use some of the Bitcoin to buy popcorn which I will eat while watching fiat become worthless and banks burn into ashes.

Why anyone would have a plan that includes cashing out back into fiat is a huge mystery to me. That just tells me that those people do not understand Bitcoin and will lose out big time. And they will have deserved it.

My main plan is to help Bitcoin adoption move along by helping market Bitcoin as much as I can. Hopefully you guys join in on this plan as well, instead of worrying about how much worthless fiat you can pump out of Bitcoin in the short term.
2250  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin and the failure of El Salvador on: September 08, 2022, 02:59:08 PM
El Salvador's problem is not with Bitcoin or their adoption of Bitcoin as legal tender. Thats just the symptoms of their real problem, which is crappy PR for Bitcoin. They at first were able to generate a lot of hype and a lot of excitement. And then? Then nothing. They completely failed when it came to marketing Bitcoin to their own people as well as to the world. They just hoped the hype would continue on its own and somehow Bitcoin would gain value and the people in El Salvador who held Bitcoin would be so grateful for their profits they would spread the adoption of Bitcoin even more. The president of El Salvador counted on that and did not take into account the fact that his people are mostly poor and would rather cash out without hodling so they could pay for stuff they really needed.

But this Pr problem is very fixable. Lets see what El Salvador has to show us.
2251  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 4 Bitcoin Traders Arrested Due To Illegal Trading on: September 08, 2022, 12:52:45 PM
The news comes from Bangladesh that 4 people were arrested by RAB-5 (Rapid Action Battalion) for the purpose of illegal bitcoin trading. The news I read is in Bengali, and if I translate the news, then according to the news sources, those 4 people who are placed in Narshingdi are arrested not only for using bitcoin, though bitcoin is illegal in Bangladesh, but they are also being arrested because they are doing some kind of money laundering. According to the news, they first use some illegal and banned dating websites, then from other countries' people take dollars, then they convert those dollars into cash through the p2p method. Finally, they convert that cash into bitcoin again through the p2p method. So Bitocin is illegal, which means they did not pay taxes because of the p2p method, and RAB suspects they are involved in money laundering. So that's the overall news.
 
Now my closing statement on this matter is that no doubt this arrest is a good job because these guys are scamming people and laundering money, but in this case, the news portal highlights bitcoin that it is illegally traded. What I do think is good. Because they choose illegal paths like dating websites and money laundering, but you can't use balmebitcoin for this. That's my opinion. What do you think about this news? Please share it with us. Thank you.
 
News source.


Had they been more careful with their opsec then they never would have gotten found out. Lazy, sloppy security is what got them caught, in the end. So I am guessing they are complete amateurs and by their clothes they are obviously not rich. Whatever money they were trading was probably small amounts. Nonetheless they got caught because their oppressive anticoiner government wanted to make an example out of someone in order to spook the rest of the population away from Bitcoin (and cryptocurrency in general).

Its too bad. But it just goes to show why we need Bitcoin. Its regular people who get made an example of, its regular people who lose their money and its regular people who have to suffer financial slavery.

Bitcoin is financial freedom. Thats why I hope this story will create more coiners in Bangladesh.


2252  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Jake Paul v Anderson Silva [rumours] on: September 07, 2022, 08:14:48 PM
Jake Paul is and always will be a pretty boy fake boxxer who only cares about his influencer image. Thats why he keeps on trying to fight old boxxers and boxxers who he sees as disadvantaged. However when it comes to Anderson Silva I believe that Jake Paul has bitten off more than he can chew and will definitely embarrass himself in the ring. Not that I am not looking forward to that fight and hopefully we can see a nice K.O. too.

I have never had respect for pretenders. Especially when it comes to noble sports like boxxing. And Jake Paul is the biggest pretender there is. He does not care about the sport he just cares about gaining followers.

Obviously he is in the same boat of character as his brother, Logan Paul, who filmed himself disrespecting suicide corpses in the Japanese suicide forest. That just goes to show where his family comes from.
2253  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [NEWS] Gambler Charged with Murder after Letting Kids Die on: September 07, 2022, 04:26:52 PM
A careless mother’s casino time resulted in her children’s death. The neglectful parent had left her kids in a hot car to place a few punts at a local casino without considering the consequences.
This is the saddest news I read today. I knew this case isn't possible when in online gambling but this is possible for other unfortunate circumstances too especially at home or somewhere else when you're doing your online gambling activity.

This should be a lesson to take to all parents out there that family is priority first before anything else especially children.

I wonder if there are parents who have experienced something like this or someone knew that has the same case, not with the one with a dead case though but something accident happened because of neglect parenting.



So are we looking for something to blame instead of the mother? If she did drugs, it would have been the fault of drugs. If she drank alcohol then it would have been alcohols fault. But in this one certain case its the fault of her casino gambling time? Sorry no, that does not check out. The truth is she was a horrible mother. She would have been a horrible mother if she went to the DMV and left her kids in a hot car or if she went to the mall and left her kids in the car. The reason does not matter. She did what she did and she should have known better. Gambling did not rot her brains and common sense away, did it?

I really hope she goes to jail for the rest of her miserable life and never has/cares for children ever again.

Bitcoin seems to die during every dump Roll Eyes

I don't mind the FUD anymore, to be honest. All this unnecessary panic only does one thing: Transfer the coins of weak hands to the strong hands. And not only that but at a cheap price too! So I say thank you very much for all the low-priced Bitcoins!

At some point everyone goes from panicking about what is happening to Bitcoin during dumps to understanding the fact that if you do not buy the dip, you will regret it later. And thats the way it always goes, if history has taught us anything.

Thats why I try to buy every dip.
2256  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Jake Paul VS Anderson Silva October 29th on: September 06, 2022, 08:51:56 PM
Just saw this news. I am so sick and tired of this kid and his brother fighting these old dudes who aren’t even boxers. I mean Anderson Silva is 47 years old. I guess if I could fight someone who played a different sport, is much older and past their prime yet still make millions of dollars I’d do it to. I just want to see these dudes actually fight a legitimate boxer their own age.

Regardless I’ll be tuning in hoping for a Silva KO.

I completely agree! Jake Paul is not even a real boxxer in my eyes. He is just an influencer with too much time on his hands. He cannot face real opponents so he chooses aged boxxers because then he might even stand the tiniest of chances. That being said I really really hope that Jake Paul gets his lights knocked out hard. I want to see Anderson Silva embarrass Paul like he deserves. And that actually very well might happen. Even though Anderson Silva is 47 years old, he is by no means a pushover. In fact, I think Jake Paul severly miscalculated his chances at winning. Anderson da Silva is a a former UFC Middleweight Champion and holds the record for the longest title reign in UFC history.

And for good reason too!
2257  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Crypto Casino Stake.com sued for $400 million on: September 06, 2022, 06:34:37 PM
I really doubt that there is any need to panic. Although for the time being, getting your funds out of stake.com would probably be a very smart bet. There are other good online gambling casinos to play on during this whole fiasco.

Although that being said, I think anyone can sue anyone for anything and demand any kind of sum. That does not make it a fact that stake.com has already lost. In fact, this could and probably might turn out to be complete hot air. Or as some people would say, a "nothing burger".

400 Million in damages in nothing to scoff at. Depending on the outcome of the lawsuit and the current financial stake of stake.com, things might go downhill really fast. Anyway, personally I will keep away and wait to see what happens.
2258  Economy / Gambling / Re: Casino Game on: September 05, 2022, 07:53:14 PM

Honestly i feel the same way because I'm fan of sports gambling and at the same time is slots, when i try to play prediction gambling that's the time that the opponent makes a gameplay and manage to win the game unlike the highest potential of winning the game, and base on the slot games theres no prediction right there so more easier to play the hardest prediction is an algorithm game or an actual game

Well you cannot predict the outcome of a slots.  Even if you break the algorithm of it, you will find that the result is random.  Though I am thinking if there is anyone who happen to break a slots algorithm and be able to sync with it resulting in a win for the overall gambling session, I bet there is no one had done that.

You cannot predict it to 100% accuracy sure. I would agree with you on that. But if you know the algorithm then you also can make prediction models based on mathematical probabilities and while you might not be right every single time, you could be right over half of the times. And as long as you have the edge in being right, even if its only 60% then with time and patience, you will obviously be the one making a profit.

Deriving the formulas for the algorithm might be where you get stuck. A lot of algorithms are made to be very complicated and rightly so. You would need teams of PhDs to even come close to a way of somewhat accurately predicting the outcomes.

I doubt your losses would justify your wins at that point. Unless you are some sort of super genius.

But you would still need to know the exact algorithm in the first place. 

So yes, I agree with you. No point in trying to predict the outcome of slots.

If they are smart they won't. Because they will know its not possible.

But I would love to see them try and fail. That would only give everyone who isn't sure about adopting crypto yet the affirmation they need that nobody will be able to take their money away from them. Especially not any government.
