Last week, I found an airdrop project in Telegram called Marco Protocol, the airdrop looked decent at the first stage, I earned 200 MAPC tokens and that was instant! But you only can withdraw from your MAP wallet when Airdrop program will end, that's good, I am okay with it. Their airdrop tweet got 8K retweet and 9K likes, so, you can understand how hype it had!
But yesterday, they announced they are going to sell Bitcoin at a 50% discount to celebrate the halving. Can you imagine? 1 Bitcoin price is 8600 USD, people can buy by 4300$! I believe This is absolutely scam but many newbies already have fallen for that! As they saw MAPC has huge support in twitter, and they listed on CMC too.

Aside from monetary incentives in crypto, I rarely come across discussions pertaining to why the average enthusiast in crypto is involved with crypto. While the answer may be pretty straightforward, there are some outliers.

Crypto means much more than just monetary incentives, it's essentially a technical revolution that has involved the masses, something you and I can be apart of. Ultimately, that's probably one of my greatest interests for blockchain and crypto. Another big intrigue for me is the evolution of blockchain tech in itself. I've been around for quite sometime and have witnessed the evolution of cryptos, businesses, behaviors and attitudes.

These 2 factors, along with several others, are the reasons I continue to be involved on a community and business level with crypto. It's become a hobby, passion and business for me.

I'm sure that those who are into crypto since last year knew that downloading new mobile wallet from play store can be dangerous, well this is for newbies who just entered crypto space this year, most top popular mobile wallets have fakes built by scammers too, before you download any wallet find its website and download through the link instead

Definitely it is safe for invest, Because it's a buzz word nowadays in online business all over the world but some of traders are genuine, one of them Altcoin is, and also in the mother currency no de-faulty into the maximum. So that we have to trust and need benefit as well with safe invest.

I think this is unfortunate news to hear. I heard that YouTube is banning contents that have connection with cryptocurrency and now having a exampe of a person that get banned because of upoading a video
Could be because of the giveaways scams that happened several months and still happening on popular Youtube channels and they are very strict now and monitoring these Crypto channels anyway they do have a terms of service if there is really violation you be disable but if you don't have one and just a miscommunications it will be reinstated.

Nice post, it would be really a great help for all the members in this forum especially for those beginners out there because as we all know hackers know that beginners are the easiest victim they can have because there are naive about crypto world.

 There are so many hacking and scamming happen online because of those bad people who always want to make money by an easy thing which is stealing it from others. They are so professional when doing it because they have learned it for so many years. So even those professionals can also be hacked especially if they face professional hackers.

Most giveaway threads are no longer allowed in the Alternate cryptocurrencies sections. From now on, posting or replying to such threads could result in being banned. Existing threads will be locked.
Whenever you want to add a site or promotion link with altcoins, it will come to you as a barrier.

how it is possible. If anyone is interested can u track for me where the coins ended

I do not recommend you guys to play casino gambling as of this current situation on which COVID-19 is still spreading around the world, but if the virus passed away you may use this tips if you are going to play in casino gambling.

1. Limit your budget - If you are already in the casino gambling, it will be hard for you to control yourself from betting, so the best thing that you must do is to limit your budget before going to casino gambling.
2. Be comfortable on the place - you don't need to get panic while playing, being panic because if thinking that authorities may enter the casino and will arrest you. That is impossible because some casino buildings are legal and have legal paper. So do not panic because it will affect you while playing.
3. Know what games you should play - that is really important, you should play only on those game on which you know that you can win the game, actually, you should choose the game that requires skills and techniques to win.

Casino gambling more entertaining compared to online gambling because we can really feel the ambiance of the building and we can assure ourselves that we are playing on a legitimate games.

After reading replies from some threads on this gambling discussion board, I see that many people have already delivered suggestions related to various problems of gamblers. Now, it depends on us to follow or ignore the suggestions. Or we can take a look at the suggestions that are suitable for our problems. Here are below:

1. You shouldn't spend much money because it will harm the family. (Limit your funds)

I have read this article: Youth gambling problems: a public health perspective I consider it important for gamblers, Gambling addiction greatly contributes to drug and alcohol abuse and theft. Joining a casino makes you lose a lot of money and smoke a lot of cigarettes and wine, This, of course, will pose a major threat to your health!!!

Can crypto really give solutions to gambling addicts?
-Eliminate drug and alcohol addiction.
-Get rid of bad habits like theft.
-Reducing the risk ratio.....

😉Did joining gambling make you addicted to drugs and drink?!!

It's hard to take a break from gambling if it's become a habit, what's your Longest Break You Have On Not Gambling, in my case my longest days of break from gambling is 30 days when I take a vacation from a place when there are no casinos, and no internet connection.

As we all know , Coronavirus has impacted each and every industry in the whole world and sports isn't an exception .

If you take a look at this  , https://www.nytimes.com/article/sports-canceled-coronavirus.html or https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5232295.0 you will get to know how many tournaments across different sports have been affected .

But the question is , is this the right time for gambling addicts to come out of addiction? The assumption I am making here is  that the gambling addicts are addicts on sports betting and not casino game addiction or poker .

Why this question is because although I wanna bet on sports ( which I have been doing every week since 8 years ) now I cannot .

This question pop out on my mind after I watch a video of Poker tournament on a physical casino, I guess playing physically really have some difference, we can consider the pressure from the crowd and of course, your opponent himself. There are so many factors to consider while playing online you can relax and think carefully. That Video I watch, the opponent is being bluffed by going all-in with 0 to 100 odds in favor of his opponent but his opponent fold because of the pressure. I am not playing on physical casinos, I want to know what is your experiences about this guys, not only poker but including other games?

For people who does not have enough income to live a comfortable life, we try to find ways to end the struggle, we take big risk to gain big rewards so if we will be successful, we don't need to work anymore and just enjoy the rest of our life doing the things that we can't do due to lack of money.

are you one of the people who dream like this?

While watching a streamer of their gambling bets they showed a site where they had lines for something to do with it.
I was appalled when I saw one of these sportsbetting sites were having odds on the covid19 virus.
I didnt see the details of the bet but it couldnt have been good.
They should lose their license if they are putting lines up for this as it not a joke or something to bet on.

Casinos and other non-essential businesses were temporarily closed due to the virus spreading the word. We often think about gambling businesses having no income, and the decrease of the stock market. But we're forgetting about their employees who get no job and salary in the current situation.

Casino workers in Las Vegas showed their disappointment and anger towards their employers who failed to help and provide them what they need. Famous Las Vegas Strip of glitzy hotels and casino is closed due to lockdown, and thousands of their employees were left with no work and income. However, some casinos were able to support their workers and offered them a two-week salary, others gave four, while some gave nothing.


Las Vegas has more than 40 million visitors every year and it is known for casinos. According to the American Gaming Association, if all casinos in the US will continue to be closed until mid-May, including nearby restaurants and bars, $43.5 billion in economic activity will lose.


The treasurer-secretary of the giant Las Vegas-based Culinary Union, Geoconda Arguello-Kline called giant operating casinos to do their responsibility in the community.

---

Although it's awful that some successful casino owners and management forget to protect and help their employees who helped them to become successful, some casino owners were able to send help and give their employees the salary they need. Perhaps they don't care about their employees' financial struggle because they have a lot of money, and they can survive the whole lockdown with that money.

It's their responsibility to give them a salary even if the business is closed. They should be prepared in times like this, and for sure they have an emergency fund to provide their employees. It's only a simple sacrifice for the employees who have been working for them every day.
