You do have to play reserves time to time and bench players (and sometimes youth as well) anyway, most of the time teams do it for cup games, in my country until the teams are in quarter finals or face a good team they usually make the youth team play so they can gain some experience, so the strategy to put young people or bench during domestic games are not really that bad of an idea, it creates a good vibe with the team that would mean if you show up you will get playing time, and those young kids can be the future of Dimano.

You can lose some games but in the end I think when they get the jitters out they will still be at high table in domestic league so they should keep focusing on champions league, after all how further could they realistically go? When they get eliminated they will go back focusing on the league.

Looking at how libra may not even happen, it looks like china crypto currency can get canceled as well, it was definitely just a counter measure against Libra that part is known but if Libra doesn't happen do you really think China will continue with their own crypto? They definitely could, its still on the table but I feel like the only reason they will do it will be gone and they will have no other reason to do it. Its a risk they will not be willing to take and I honestly think its just a method of prevention for them.

However, if they continue with it than we will see the first big nation with its own crypto (Venezuela had one I think) and see how well it does and according to results of that we may see other countries doing the same as well or china will close and there will be none.

That won't go for too long if they keep printing too much money tho. Like yeah sure dollar is a global reserve thing right now but at the end of the day there is no way dollar could continue to lose value by printing more dollars and then still hope that nations would hold a currency that is constantly losing money on their reserves.

If a country realizes that the dollars they worked hard to save on the reserves worth nothing now, they will start focusing more on Euro and even Yuan if they can just to have a better future on their reserves, if they ever need dollars for something they would change exchange their euro for dollars for that job and then be done with it but not hold it. Hence, dollar needs to hold its value as long as possible .

You must think about the REVERSE PROCESS of what you are planning up. I mean, first you must set up a business and then you may announce your services here to have good amount of customers. New users like you are prohibited here to engage in any services which are involving this forum member's money. Many low ranked people had tried to be an escrow here but most of them were nuked out by mods for the reason of NOT having enough trade history.

Moreover, mixing cannot be a services but a business. Your capital is too low for such a business. I remember cryptomixer once unveiled their reserve bitcoins which were around 2000+ BTC compared to your ~5 BTC (I assume you are estimating your networth at BTC rates $10k).

Trying to play with people's money cannot be tolerated in this community. You must deserve a neg. trust. Also, I want to warn people who are visting this topic :
Potential scam. Please stay away.

There is still a good deed coming out of this. We don't know what would happen to altcoins if there wasn't that increase, so we all know that there was an increase and that is good enough to me. Maybe it would have gone even lower if it wasn't for that increase? Who knows, the real test will happen when bitcoin price will go up again (it is under $10k again so I assume it would go above again) and than if altcoins go even lower that would create a challenge, however if they can hold the pressure and keep the prices around the same than I think this was a win all around.

Let's hope that bitcoin doesn't screw things up again by going up but I want it to go up as well, just don't affect altcoins while doing it, get fresh fiat for it to happen and we all will be fine.

Looks like the price is under $10k last I checked, that means it is a great time to make another 5% to 10% profit once again, remember anytime bitcoin went under $10k and didn't went any further below it went up back above $10k once again which means price of bitcoin will definitely go up soon. That is why I have put all of my savings to bitcoin yesterday, it looked like a great idea and I am not sure if I will be happy at the end of this or sad but I know that I made my decision and will sell when it makes 5% profit (could make more but I don't want to risk too much).

Normally, I diversify my investments into many things but at the same time this was such a good price that I couldn't miss it so all my money is in bitcoin right now and waiting for it to go up.

I feel like I am a pleb myself, I didn't get into bitcoin because of money or anything else, I have lived almost all my life in online world and I have made a ton of money in every game I played so I assumed it would be easy to make bitcoins as well and I was kinda right (made a ton of bitcoins 5-6 years ago and now making a decent living today as well) and I wanted a currency I can use globally online without using my credit card.

It gave me the freedom to do whatever I want with my money without worrying about laws which is not all true but I still live my life like it is.

Hence, right now I am not really wise about trading and all that but I am not getting manipulated by whales neither, I am somewhere in between where I can do some silly thing that others may call me idiot for but I do it because I want to, not because others manipulate me to do.

The scary part of these financial crisis is that people think bitcoin goes up in price but sadly the dollar goes down in value and that causes us to have less purchasing power with the money we make. Say you make 100k a year (not rich in USA but not poor neither) and then one day something like 2008 happens right?

Well, you keep on making 100k while everything else gets more expensive, next year they give you a small raise and you start to make 105k or 110k at best whereas the things you can buy with it are already closing to double the price. That is why I am afraid that bitcoin is not going up in price, it never did, maybe the first few years it might have but these late 2 years have been all dollar losing value, which is good for bitcoin holders but bad for the world.

I have always said that I never trusted bakkts affect on people, it is not something big and its not getting any attention, we are not talking about JPMorgan or anything that size, bakkt is a small timer compared to those places who have bigger assets outside of USA let alone in it.

Hence, the reality is that bakkt will start, maybe get some people involved but in the end it will be nothing too impactful on bitcoin itself and just slowly diminish its affect on bitcoin. That is just my thought tho, maybe I am super wrong, maybe bakkt will change the sphere of bitcoin and the price will be 50k, I just don't see it. If you ask me the halving has a ton more impact on bitcoin than bakkt could ever hope for, with halving we will at least have less mined coins every day.

I am so not sure at all. I have invested into a coin that was at around 4k satoshis and heard that it will go up, I bought it and it went as high as over 8k satoshis at one point, I sold just a few coins and made 0.5 profit! I didn't even invested that much but with extras I got that much (was more like 0.4... just rounded), after that I saw it going down and felt like I should buy more so I can make more money next time it goes up.

It kept going down and down even more and more which resulted with me losing more and more of my money. Now if I sell all my coins together it doesn't make 0.5, of course I can't even get that if I want to, there is no volume at all and I would have to destroy the coins prices if I sell and even with that I would probably get only 0.2 or so at max.

It is a very risky but also rewarding way of doing promotions, if you get big enough then you will have a chance to actually get your name out there all the time and even if you are known too much it doesn't matter, even if you are the biggest crypto casino ever, if people keep seeing you all the time there will be a time when they have a problem with their current casino and they know you and seen you everywhere so they will say "screw this I am going to wolf.bet" but in order to do that you have to do this for too long, if you do it long enough eventually you will see customers pouring in but it costs you until then.

So, you have to have money and a big budget at that to actually pull off a good signature campaign, if you quit after few weeks then you will just lose money without gaining much.

The real trick is, what is the "personal information" is regarding? For example, is storing the emails and passwords attached to a username considered a personal information? Does it have to be KYC? If not then does bustabit requires KYC by the law so they have to ask for it, if they have to ask for it then does that mean they have to comply with GDPR?

This goes round and round between each other, I think since they are not asking for KYC as far as I know, they don't have to comply with other laws as well, as long as they are legit and not stealing money (which we all know they don't) there is no need to comply with any law regarding certain one area for now, maybe ban USA gamblers because it is illegal for them but all rest (including EU) seems fine so far.

Game-protect has many red flags in his profile, he could be very risky to do business with according to bitcointalk users. In any case sportsbet.io has been doing so well lately, the great marketing and amazing public awareness, I am gonna be honest here and say that I used to play somewhere else but in the past few weeks sportsbet.io won my betting.

I was playing somewhere a lot older and have been there for years so I saw no reason to change my book for any reason but now that I have seen so many marketing efforts (starting with watford) I have realized maybe I should give this place a chance and ever since I said that and started gambling here I saw no reason to go back to where I used to play, even the odds are better but promotions are certainly much much better.

Facebook could definitely fix this if they want to, its not something impossible for them, all they have to do is pay the right people, fix the parts that looks not allowed and then they can release it. However, does it really worth it? I mean should facebook really give it a try if there is so much struggle with it? Will they make that much money from this that justifies actually going against all of this odds and fighting for it?

If they are going to make billions of dollars easily then yes this worths it, even if its just 1 billion a year for the first few years then it totally worths it but I am not entirely sure the transaction costs will be that high and the volume will be that high, if they believe in their user numbers then maybe they can try.

Let's tackle it one by one.
First of all if I am making profits (or just happen to buy bitcoin at 1 dollar and now have thousands of it, doesn't matter, same logic) and want to put it on my bank account I just divide it into days, I don't put all my money into bank account all in one day, just put it in there everyday small by small and that will eventually become big.

What my country does is that they check the transactions not the accounts itself, they don't ask people "why do you have so much money in your account", no they ask "where does this big sum comes from" which means as long as its small amounts you can get bigger with time.

No, I do not let my bank know about it, they don't need to know and even if they do they have nothing to do about it. Yet again, I wouldn't let them know, useless.

Facebook literally made their money by selling data, they never actually sold the "information" but they sold the data, for example they were selling stuff like "people who like computer games" to companies who want to advertise their games, they never actually give information regarding you directly, nobody went ahead and did stuff like "give me info on person x" or something, no they just happen to advertise to what you like.

This literally has absolutely nothing to do with their currency unless they start to sell data on what people spend their money on, if that happens then they could literally make so much money that you wouldn't believe it, think about the power of having data points on what people spend their money on, facebook could be even larger than what it is today.

It will depend on the next demographic that joins as well, which part of the world comes in and joins the crypto world changes so many things about bitcoin, maybe next time wall street will jump in, maybe there will be something huge in farmers of the world, maybe oil, maybe gaming.

We really don't know who will come into crypto world and change the sphere of it, right now we are still young so if one sector focuses on crypto too much than we can literally share all of crypto that way. I mean that we cannot be sure who are all going to be part of this all-new-community of human race hence its future may remain as a mystery for decades at least. Only after identifying the type of adopters, the future if cryptocurencies could be predicted at some levels.

Let's assume computer games turn into crypto and everyone is selling in crypto and every game has crypto money in it as well, people buy and sell their "game" currency in form of crypto that could turn into fiat, I promise you suddenly all of crypto will becomes gaming community. So, who comes in next will decide the fate... sort of.

There has been a lot of big exchanges that did this as well. As long as you pay the exchanges the amount required then you do not have anything to worry about.

Just to give an example a close friend of mine has a coin of his own and he literally talked with each company by flying to those places, not just talk them on discord or telegram or something, he literally flew to their headquarters and had meetings and talked what could be done, even after he being at that level he realized it is just empty volume that doesn't make sense, binance literally requested 50 bitcoins so he could be listed on dex, nothing else, they didn't even checked the coin, just give 50 btc and you are listed. So, ask yourself if exchanges do not care anything but their profits, would IEO really make anyone else any profits?

There are many reasons people look for high risks and struck gold, not all of them include just sitting at home relaxing all day, that would make most of us bored out of our minds. Don't get me wrong I have job that many people would envy but I still want something else.

I do not really want financial freedom so I can retire early, that is a good idea and I wouldn't mind it compared to what I am doing right now but that is not the goal for me at all. I am looking for financial freedom so I can do whatever I want, which is work once again but at least work something that I enjoy doing, I have planned all my future if I had enough money but right now since I can't even afford getting sick for a hospital bill, obviously I can't do what I enjoy instead of doing something that gets me paid.

Have you ever heard about "calculated risk"? It is like, first you must decide your profit/target levels and from that you must work on your capital along with leverage multiplier. Without proper plan, anything may get collapsed. Trading with high leverage must need a proper plan and disciplined trading, else disaster will be the only result.

The first times you are using a website is always the hardest, unless it is done by a great UX designer, there is always hard time figuring out where is what. After awhile you get used to where things are and it becomes something quite easy and you get used to it. You just have to give it some time and that is how you get a lot more fun out of playing anywhere.

It is not about just here, it is about everywhere, you can pick up the biggest casino in crypto world (stake is my number one in wagered but maybe I am wrong) and if you never been there before then you will have hard time figuring it out, so it is not just one website deal. However with some better UX design this could definitely get better as well, it still won't be super easy for newcomers but it could be easier than this.
