I have noticed that there are multiple casinos in the crypto space owned by the same person or company. I am curious about the reasons behind creating additional casinos when there is already a running and profitable one.
How does this practice contribute to their business? It seems illogical as it might increase operating expenses without an obvious benefit.
Gamblers, any thoughts on this?
In my view, they can build one more company/brand with a little more expense which they can be sold for a big amount to someone else that is how the shark investors think. But there is no reason if they are not really have any idea to sell the business in future or have different games from one another. |

Now to my question: Fees have been going wild lately and I've already seen some campaigns switch to payments over other networks while still remaining in the Bitcoin Service board (and advertising paying in BTC). Am I to assume this is alright? I've been paying roughly $200/week per campaign in fees for the last few weeks and would much rather pay less as long as nothing would change as to where I can post campaigns and contests.
It shouldn't exist in the service board if they switched to any payment option other than Bitcoin whether it's a temporary switch or permanent. But to bypass this, they can ask for an optional payment network in case the user is willing to accept in USDT instead of BTC and can switch back to BTC whenever they want. |

The bank I am using is not having anything that says I can't deposit funds from casino or the source of funds can't be related to gambling but since we are talking about crypto gambling, you are not going to deposit the winnings to bank accounts, to cashout the place you deposit is exchanges where it becomes tricky so read the ToS completely to avoid your account getting banned.
For the safe option, you can pick p2p platforms that don't have restrictions and also your bank can't flag your funds coming from crypto and gambling.

The government can shutdown any platform that isn't regulated by them and also its not a wise option to trust them with your money even after knowing that the government is going after the creator because all I can see is a perfect exist scam and the owner will runaway. I don't know whether it will be true but that's how I see it.

The link you posted didn't work. Try Talkimg to post images on bitcointalk.
If my assumption is right, the transaction you are trying to bump the fee has having unconfirmed parent which means technically you are doing CPFP by bumping it, but your wallet doesn't have any balance to cover the fee that is why you are getting this error. |

There is no danger in enabling the RBF and since full RBF can be availed, TX that hasn't been broadcasted as RBF can bump fees too but its kind of a pain in the ass, so switch to better wallets that have RBF.
The're risk in enabling RBF but it's minimal hence it should be made know to all that sometimes it can be risky if not confirmed yet. I am not sure, what do you mean by minimal risk? By implementing a feature that is already available on the recommended wallets but shitty wallets are too lazy to roll over the updates and just keep the users without developing anything. RBF is something that we can use to increase the fees by rebroadcasting with different signature and it also can be termed as double spend if the outputs altered from the pervious transaction. |

As for being faster, if you use ViaBTC free accelerator, your tx would be included in the next block that they mine, so paying the fee for high priority would be faster, because that should get you in the next block, but with ViaBTC you have to wait until they mine a block, except they mine the next block immediately after your acceleration request.
Since the congestion, not every transaction that is submitted for free acceleration is not included in the next block mined by the Viabtc pool which means you may have to wait several hours so it only helps those who are not in a hurry and making tx with less number of inputs and outputs. |

Have seen this many times before and the most famous one is 1xbit scam that have been letting their players deposit , play and lose but once that player won and need to withdraw? automatically banned that players and will accused of cheating  I think that every casino has such tricks in their ToS. I`ve got return of the bet when i won with the odd about 14. It was "operator mistake". But x2 bet in that match wasn`t "a mistake". I can`t say that when casino ask KYC - it is scam, but often the casino use to maximize their profit. If a casino voids such bets then they are going to lose their customer base unless it clearly a mistake from the operator related to odds. And it won't take too long for them to get caught if they are involved in tricky cheatings to avoid paying the won bets. Casino is just a business too and there is nothing wrong with maximizing their profits as long as they are doing in the right way. |

Why is RBF not by default for all Transactions on the Blockchain?
Some crappy wallets don't avail all the features that is existing and some of them are even used by many like trust wallets. So the reason is their development team too lethargic and that pictures how their security and bug-fixing will be. There is no danger in enabling the RBF and since full RBF can be availed, TX that hasn't been broadcasted as RBF can bump fees too but its kind of a pain in the ass, so switch to better wallets that have RBF. |

Not really. The most addictive games are the ones that can be played faster, so online games are more addictive than face-to-face games (online roulette over physical roulette, online poker over face-to-face poker, etc.).
In the 90's people went broke betting on horse races because they didn't have internet on their cell phones. Today they can bet 24/7/365 on a lot of varieties very quickly.
In my opinion what takes the cake would be slots.
In that case, it varies from individual to individual and what kind of game they are into. Games like slots and dice can be addictive but it is also possible to get bored after a while cause its just the repetition of the same thing over and over again which means I am coming to my point, gambling is addictive and there is no scale to one weigh over the other. |

I don't know if this has been discussed before or not.
Reading about gambling addiction I don't think it's a new topic, but fitting to be in here, I just want to ask: between casino gambling, in-house gambling, and one-on-one gambling with physical players available on the table, which among these is more likely to turn someone into a gambling addict if the person doesn't have self-control in all his gambling activities?
I don't find one over the other because I see people addicted to casino games as well as poker where they bet against other player,s not against the house, and sports betting is no exception to it, and the classic example is horse race betting which is in practice for very long and I remember rich guys in the 90's went broke because they were obsessed with horse race betting. |

As a matter of fact, we don't need to disclose our wins and loss to anyone else and if someone do there is no reason that it has to be accurate so if they say something just by words then just take it with ease and no need to try that by yourselves but most of the person get tempted by those results to jump into gambling in the first place and influencers use this as an advertising strategy too.

when i check the transaction in bitcoincore it says that it is in the memepool but when i put the TXID into memepool.space it says that its waiting for the transaction to enter the memepool

Your transaction has been dropped by the nodes, which means the balance should be available for you to spend now again so your qt might be having issues with sync. Try 'listunspent' command and see whether the UTXOs appear as spendable. If using Bitcoincore is not convenient then import the address into Electrum using privatekeys and spend it from there. To get your private keys use 'dumpprivkey' followed by the respective address. |

you can also do is to cancel the transaction.
There is no such thing when it comes to Bitcoin. You can bump the fee, which is known as Replace by Fee (RBF), or double spend it back to your own address which is what featured as cancel in electrum but here is the thing OP can't even bump the fee in his wallet. |
|
|

He will not be able to do that if the transaction is not supporting replace-by-fee. Unless he tries to look for node that is supporting full RBF. I have not done this before and I do not know how it works because all my transaction are supporting replace-by-fee.
I haven't done it myself personally but if OP has the private keys then he can import it to electrum and can reboradcast the transaction with a new signature if he is able to succeed at finding a node that enabled full RBF feature. Here is how it should be done explained by @hosseinimr93 For making the replacement transaction, you can also use electrum.
- Create a new wallet using your private key.
- Let your wallet get synced and then disconnect your computer from the internet.
- Go to "console" tab and use this command to remove the transaction you want to be replaced from your wallet: wallet.adb.remove_transaction("TXID")
- Close electrum and open it again.
- Make the replacement transaction and export the raw transaction.
Now you have the singed raw transaction and you can broadcast it.
The problem now is that for broadcasting the replacement transaction, you need a node that has enabled full RBF. So, you should try different transaction broadcasting tools until you find a one allowing you to do so and doesn't reject your transaction.

Betting on the favorites is the conservative strategy but the downside is lower rewards and if one game goes against then possibly you could lose the progress from a streak of games so mixing up may be the better approach.
Myself not a regular sports bettor so I do not have any particular strategy for someone who wants to find some serious strategies to consider but for a casual bettor then it may work always trust your instincts so you won't regret it even if the results are against as per your expectations.

Hi guys. Someone will explain to me why gamblers have such a strange logic: if a gambler has received a huge multiplier, then he will not withdraw this money. And he will continue to play, saying, "if I'm so lucky, I'll be lucky again now."
But according to the laws of mathematics, the chance of such luck becomes much less, doesn't it?
I know the law of gravity but what is the law of mathematics regarding luck? Did you mean probability? Strange but it make sense, let say you bet $1 and hit 100x so the reward will be $100 and you decided to continue because you felt the luck factor so I won't be surprised if you did repeat $1 bet 10 times or 20 times even after the continuous bust, it doesn't make any sense if they lose 99 times and believe that remaining 1 will give another 100x. |

Make sure UTXOs have spendable funds in it. To get list of all available spendable UTXOs use 'listunspent' in the command console. To create Raw transaction, Use 'createrawtransaction ' command and make sure scriptPubKey provided are correct for each UTXO. ./bitcoin-cli -rpcwallet=MY_WALLET createrawtransaction "[{\"txid\":\"tx_id_1\",\"vout\": 0, \"scriptPubKey\":\"Script_1\"}, {\"txid\":\"tx_id_2\",\"vout\": 1, \"scriptPubKey\":\"Script_2\"}, {\"txid\":\"tx_id_3\",\"vout\": 1, \"scriptPubKey\":\"Script_3\"}]" "{\"recipient_address\": amount, \"change_address\": change}"
To Sign Raw transaction, use 'signrawtransactionwithwallet' ./bitcoin-cli -rpcwallet=MY_WALLET signrawtransactionwithwallet "hex_of_raw_transaction"
After Signing, verify the signed transaction by 'decoderawtransaction' command. ./bitcoin-cli -rpcwallet=MY_WALLET decoderawtransaction "signed_hex_transaction"
Now Broadcast your transaction ./bitcoin-cli -rpcwallet=MY_WALLET sendrawtransaction "signed_hex_transaction"
To get your private key in bitcoin core, use 'dumpprivkey' followed by the respective address |

With gambling, you chose on who to bet when to bet , once you do you you wait for the outcome at a fixed time!
With trading you chose your pair coins, you have to wait for the price to reach what you think it's an entry point and then set limits , watch the damn numbers even for days, even if you cash out in profit there can always be a regret you haven't kept the position opened.
So prove me wrong (if you think I am), what am I missing?
It's all about our perspective, About sports betting my perspective contradicts completely with yours because if I bet on something it adds a bit more extra pressure in the back of my mind which can ruin the experience of watching the game, we just expect all the time the result should be in the favor of our side even if the bet amount is negligible because that's the common psychology of human we don't really like to lose. Trading, we get to choose to be feel relaxed if we don't rush things and long-term trading is no stress once we fix how much our target price to be and open the trade and wait until it hits it which could be days or weeks but we know what is going to be the outcome of it.  |

I have never seen a case when casino called player for a refund because slot had bugs. What happens if you think that slot has bugs and that's why you lose?
Well, it's not possible to prove that the game has some bug that is why you lost it means you will never be able to make such allegations but there are incidents where the casino balance drained to zero with no history of bets and switched to max bet amount even though the user doesn't click it particularly and such kind of allegations we can see even on bitcointalk but the legitimacy is questionable so it always goes in the favour of casino unless the user has concrete evidence to back his allegations. |
