It is always smart to diversify your money. As much as I love Bitcoin, I also invest in other things, but I still prefer the majority of my investments to be in Bitcoin. Everything else is kind of a side-investment, really. Basically I do somewhat put all my eggs in one basket. I am still willing to bet most on Bitcoin knowing that some risks, intrinsic within traditional investments, can be avoided with Bitcoin.

Real Estate is obviously a meaningful investment, but as with any investment, it could fluctuate greatly in value and ultimately cost you too much money to maintain. So any investment always has risk at the core and there is always the risk of losing everything at any time.



 

As long as its digital, it is hackable. There is no way around it. This is also mainly the reason why I prefer not to give any entity my KYC, if I can avoid it. Once that data gets stolen, you will be sweating bullets, wondering if somebody in the world is using your ID for neferious purposes- like taking a loan out in your name or commiting crimes in your name...

I doubt that this will make anyone stop playing on their platform. Especially because Stake has such a large following.

But that being said, at the very least, people should not store their money in centralized places. Like casinos or exchanges.

Its the law. Or rather it is simply the exchanges following government regulations so that in a legal case, they are not the ones held responsible. Because they could lose a lot of money and the owners might end up in prison if they were at fault for say, terrorist money laundering schemes. Which I imagine is one of the worst case scenarios but it is a life- and business ruining event. Obviously the exchange owners do not want that. They would rather keep doing business.

But the real reason why CEXes follow the regulations is because they are all centralized and the government knows who to hold responsible. I doubt the owners care about forcing people to do KYC or stopping certain countries from trading on their platforms.

I would argue that WO has become a very efficient breaking-news aggregator.


People were tired of farming-bots so they asked Satoshi Nakamoto to shut them all down. Forum clean now. Thats all I got.

^I have no idea what this guy just said because I have him on ignore. I do not even need to view his post to know that it is definitely going to piss me off. I was so happy when I found out about all the dropped farming bots. I had hoped individuals like him would be gone too. I guess this one is not an AI bot, but rather a really dumb, edgy kid pretending to be an edgy adult on the internet.

You might find it hard to discover a "lucky technique", as it seems to be an impossible concept. But I do use gambling techniques for money-loss risk reduction. Although the techniques all require a huge amount of self discipline, something that many people seem to lack and therefore keep losing all their gambling funds.

People need to understand that rather than hoping for a master strategy, casinos should be treated with the same respect as other addictive things. If you keep that in mind then you will discover that you make a lot less losses than before.

I would chalk it up to a mere coincidence and I would not let that affect my future gambling behaviors. Especially since I know that this could very well be an emotional trigger which makes my betting behavior become more risky. But in the end, it is like chasing a dream. Remember when you have a dream so good that you hope to dream it again some day? Sure you might dream it again someday but nobody can predict that. The question is; Should I really be gambling on whether a coincidence comes true again? Obviously the answer is no.

I can tell you right now that nobody trustworthy is going to lend your friend any money, especially after that red flag in which he stated that he wishes to use the lent money for gambling. Your friend is exhibiting extreme signs of gambling addiction and if he were truly your pal then you would try to convince him not to take out a loan. Especially from people who are actively seeking desperate people like him in order to offer him illegal/shady loans. Those same kind of people who would break a mans arms and legs and throw him into a river with concrete shoes. Loans for gambling always end badly.

This all seems very strange. I have seen so-called muslims attempting to justify haram actions, like drinking alcohol, through loopholes and with poetic wording. And it is obvious that they are not really holding themselves to their religion but are making excuses. But those kinds of "muslims" are rather rare. The promotion of a Halal Casino seems like a next step to that. Why anyone would waste time trying to market something to a specific audience which, in the majority, is not interested in that thing in the first place? Not only a counter productive failed marketing attempt but also an obvious attempt of trying to justify something that they should not be doing.

Yeah, actually you are 100% correct. I got too dramatic and ignored reality. This is the issue with spiritual discussion... Peer-pressure drama. I blame the gays.

Edit: I was wrong only about the time travel part, not about the nature of entropy. Just wanted to point that out.

Even the smallest action has significance in this endless multiverse of ours. Travel back in time and you could profoundly change the future with tiny decisions. If you were to travel back in time millions of years ago and step on a bug, it could change the entire future of humanity. And the further back into the past you go, the bigger the future-changing impact becomes... So even a single insignificant ant will have significantly formed the future, billions of years from now, through his tiny actions.

I would even go as far as to wager that each atom is something without which the universe could not exist if they were not where and what they were supposed to be. Everything in existence is working together towards the common goal of "keeping the game running".  

It's a ritualized panic about death. Thats what it is, really. Panicked people do and say the craziest shit. I would be more terrified of the idea of there being a place in which I have to continue spending the rest of eternity, conscious. But then again, we know almost nothing about life and or even the universe. That lack of knowledge is our source of the discomfort about death, essentially.  

Your title is completely unrelated to a way to stop gambling addiction. If anything its a way to increase gambling addiction, since the website you are obviously trying to advertise has all the same things as gambling games do. And this might be counterproductive to people who have problems with gambling games. It could even mean relapsing someone who has not given in to his/her gambling addiction for years. All because he/she played a game which was eerily similar to the games he/she tried to avoid in the past.

I think advertising in such a way is a shameful practice. And I seriously doubt that you are in no way affiliated with the platform that you are trying to advertise. Your marketing team needs to rethink its strategy.

Community feedback is one of the first criteria for choosing a casino which is fair, secure, not a scam as well as qualitatively fun. But the only way you are going to find out if a certain casino is right for you or not, is not going to be found out by sifting through feedback, but rather trying out the free test version of the games. I would recommend you read the terms and conditions carefully and if everything seems in order, then thats the point where you even start considering to play with real money on that gambling online casino platform.

I think that it could be possible that OP does not have much experience with the middle class (or lower), judging from his way of writing. There do exist a small percentage of people who have never had to go through the experience of not being in the top class, and to them, they cannot imagine life any other way.

But I think we might perhaps be misunderstanding OP's meaning. Perhaps he means that with the passage of time, and the progress of technology, we now have access to things that were considered luxuries before and that each time we, humanity, progresses with technology, our lives become easier and we can now afford things that people in the past could not afford?

In such a case I would agree. No more dark-ages dentistry or using blood leeches as "medicine".  We won't have to revisit those days.

Through Paypal? Oh cmon what? Lol.

Why would anyone think that making Bitcoin more centralised is the solution to the mind-set problem of "there is nobody to take the responsibility if things go wrong". Paypal is not needed, but on the good side, Paypal is in a way, making Bitcoin more adopted. So I guess all in all, its somewhat of a good thing rather than a bad thing.

But I just do not see Paypal in Bitcoin's future. At some point even Paypal will have to recognize the fact that it is a completely unnecessary third party in the payment solution. But for now everyone wins, I guess.

The immature and aggressive gamblers are I think, somewhere on the top of the list of disliked gamblers in existence. And I think everyone here would probably agree with me on that, more or less. I personally hate gamblers who, when they lose, go all hulk-mode and start throwing a childish fit and try to explain their rage as if they were personally the ones who got tricked.

Some people need to grow up first, psychologically, before they even consider doing adult things like gambling. For people who cannot deal with their emotions, its like a time-bomb. Everyone knows themselves best.

I believe that Bitcoin can handle the negative aspect of deflation, as deflation is only bad for the fiat system and anything that resembles it. Bitcoin on the other hand seems to be perfectly suited to turn deflation into a positive thing. While I completely agree that deflation can be worse than inflation if it is brought in through negative factors (lack of demand or a decrease in efficiency throughout the markets, this does not seem to pose a problem for Bitcoin as Bitcoin is being constantly updated, both technologically as well as economically. This insures an proportional increase in efficiency. And as you said, L2 layer is merely another addition to Bitcoin which proves an increase in efficiency is progressing.

What about the lack of demand? Well in a scenario of Bitcoin being a global legal tender, Bitcoin is government recognized money itself. Bitcoin is not a product or a service. So what lack of demand of money do you see? A decrease in demand? Sure. But Bitcoin that decrease is compensated by the incentive of profitable mining after the mining difficulty adjusts to the dropped hash rate.

Bitcoin is the new bank.

There is no point in trying to argue which banking or Bitcoin is better when Bitcoin is obviously the next-gen bank? Is that not its called "be your own bank?". For some people, it seems time to take that literally. . Not much point in saying that here for any older Bitcoiners. Really thats just the message for newbie Bitcoiners.

One of my favorite aspects of Bitcoin is how its deflationary. There can never be more than 21 million Bitcoin in supply. But it is always possible for there to be less (forever lost wallets, for example).

The value of each Satoshi would only go upwards, if the world adopted Bitcoin as legal tender. Which it will. I cannot wait for that day.

The japanese culture, as well as boxxing culture is based on honor. I very much doubt that the judges would vote in favor of the japanese fighter just because he is japanese, if that is indeed what you are implying (I might be misunderstanding you?). So if they were to make such a vote, it would be very clear to the rest of the boxxing community and it would bring great dishonor upon them. Dishonor is something that the Japanese avoid at all costs. So I am feeling quite safe with the judges decisions.

Either way the fight will definitely be very interesting and hard-fought. And the score will probably reflect that.
