241  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Greed or risk on: November 23, 2023, 03:14:23 PM

I was telling someone that if I'm the one to have such a slip and the game is already showing me to cash out such an amount of money, which is equal to $865 based on our local exchange rate, seeing such an amount as cash out available and leaving it will make me appear like someone who is too greedy, but the guy was telling me it's not being greedy but it's all about taking risks. The debate didn't end well, so I decided to bring this up here to see the responses from experienced gamblers.

Your decision to cash out is based on economic factor from what I can predict. It is not based on greed or risk. At that point in time you are choosing to do what is best for you. There is no right or wrong motive here. The decision we take here will be based on our economic and financial situations.

Who knows what how much $865 would go in solving a need for you. So no shame in it. And if anyone says its greed accept it cash out. Maybe use 20% out of it for your next bet.

Hello everyone,

I'm new here and trying to get an overview. However, it is not that easy, as there are a lot of crypto casinos and betting providers. I came across DEX Sports and after some research here on the forum I decided not to deposit any money there. My question now would be, at which crypto bookies can i deposit without hesitation? I am only interested in sports betting, so all bets should be settled correctly and payouts should be carried out without any problems. Also, maybe someone can comment on betting limits and bans/limits if you're a successful punter. I already know stake and am really very satisfied. Can you name bookies that act in a similarly serious and uncomplicated manner?
Common man, you gotta follow up with the conversations here. There are so many great sports books online. Some of which are being promoted here to know the best sports books here, just look at the sports book with the longest running signature campaign that you give you an idea of who the best of the best is. About the betting limits, I don't really know about that but whatever sports book catches your attention, visit their webpage and read their terms of services. The information you need would be right there and if peradventure it is not there, then you chat the customer support on the website, they will answer your questions correctly.

Bottle Flip

What is the lastest game that is paying by both children and adults in your country? As I said Bottle Flipping game the lastest in my country.

This thread should be locked imo. Nothing new to add here. Besides it doesn't look like gambling topic for discussion. What I know about this game is that it is more of a family and friends to just play during a picnic or breakout.
244  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Two Carreer skill benefit of gambling on: November 22, 2023, 08:45:55 PM
There are 2 main benefit of gambling that improves the major skills people look out for in an employee in every offices.

1. Critical thinking: there have never been any job opening that doesn't require candidates to have this skill, because every company needs it to grow. And under critical thinking include skills like problem solving, idealist etc.

2. Socialization: Mainly the corporate world will call it interpersonal relationship. It's a very crucial skill anywhere we find ourselves in the world. And gamblers who participate in board games, easily develop the skill. When in the office, they'll always socialize and make friends with co-workers.
Yes critical thinking skills and socialization skills are indeed developed over a long period of time as you gamble on specific games not just any games. These are games that you bet against another user and not against the casino itself. Table games gives you the greatest place to build up your critical thinking and analytical skills as well as socialization skills too. In games like slots you play alone and you don't require socializing or critical thinking and analysis. You click a button, it the wheels and the outcome is produced within few minutes.
245  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Conclusion after losing millions! that games are rigged. on: November 22, 2023, 08:27:07 PM
hey guys,
I was watching this video, where a popular twitch streamer who used to gamble and stream on twitch, had betted millions on slots and on online casino and losing till now.
watch and listen that video he tells why he thinks slots is rigged, the games are not random as the website shows. if you will see his more videos you will understand why is think like that.
I think he just talked about slots, but I also think games that are told provably fair by casinos are rigged in someway.

what do you think about this? are games which are played by computers are rigged? don't answer like we play for fun, we are responsible, we are bitcoiner we know to verify bets, etc.
Finally one honest twitch streamer. Obviously, he lost because he is an independent streamer without ties or sponsorship to the casino. And he was able to give his honest review about them. Assuming that he was being sponsored, he first would not have lost because the casino would want a good rep from someone with high number of followers. Anyways I wouldn't conclude that he is right for now until other people checks it out and have the same report.
246  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you ever been a gambling addict? on: November 22, 2023, 08:14:21 PM
There were times when I gamble too much. Maybe much more than I did now due to boredom or was trying to escape a difficult time. I was this close to being dependent on gambling. I knew I was already spending so much time gambling but didn't know it was that bad until it was pointed out my best friend. He saved me. If you are going through a tough time, it may be difficult to talk to someone about it especially it you are trying to be a man. However you must talk to someone to save yourself from self-destructive habits.
247  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin vs Altcoins on: November 21, 2023, 11:43:56 PM
among other numerous altcoins are among those that have recorded ATH recently even as BTC struggle to hold up the $36,500 resistance

There's more strategy and technique required to making lots of money in altcoins because your timkmg had to be right from buy to sales of the  altcoins so that you can  cash out and invest that money into Bitcoin.

249  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will Argentina Be The Next El Salvador To Accept Bitcoin As Legal Tender? on: November 21, 2023, 07:14:28 PM
If Argentina eventually makes Bitcoin a legal tender then it will send a strong message to the countries in the south-American region as well as their politicians before and during elections. Sincerely wishing that Javier Milley will not do what politicians do after they clenched the victory. If he eventually follows through on his campaign promises, Argentina may most likely be the next bitcoin destination for bitcoiners. 
250  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When does the moment come when the gambler loses control? on: November 21, 2023, 04:24:07 PM
But I believe that the greatest dependence on gambling appears at the moment of loss, when the player admits in his head the idea that he could earn so much. He is disappointed, but wants to recoup. It is at this moment that the desire comes to play again and again in order to return to the previous state.

What do you think about it?
The moment of loss is when the addiction to gambling begins to show if not controlled. At this point the gambler will easily tell a lie so that someone can loan money to them. At the back of their mind, the only to repay the loan will be after they have doubled and recover their loss.

If you ask many gamblers at what point did they struggle to stop gambling to prevent too much gambling, if they are truthful, they will tell you that it was during the moment of loss. That is where the real struggle is because they have lost and are disappointed and pained and they are looking for closure. And they think the closure they'll get is through gambling again or more.
251  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have You At Any Point In Time Blame Who Taught Or Led You To Gambling? on: November 21, 2023, 03:24:04 PM
Nobody deserves to be blame for anyone going into gambling. I know that we cannot downplay the role of peer pressure here but then we should be pressured into doing something that we are not comfortable with doing because we want to fit in. On so many occasions, I have turned down invitations to join friends to the casino because at that point in time I knew that I should be gambling. Maturity demands that we hold ourselves accountable for our actions. On the other hand we only blame when there is a loss. I don't think we praise or commend those who led us to gambling if any whenever we are having a winning streak.
252  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Streamer wins seem too good on: November 20, 2023, 09:25:22 PM
The thing is, that these streamers get big wins so often that it seems very unlikely for their streaks to be happening at random. 
Whenever I have the time to watch these streamers, I tell myself in comfort that this is more than just luck. Yes it is more than just some random luck coming in to play. What is it that if the average person plays the slot they hardly win as much as the streamer does? It smells fishy. These streamers are promoting the casinos so it is only right that they make them win to given a good PR a lost is bad for the business and they wouldn't want that. The real question is that do these streamers actually cash out their winnings or it is just for show?

Like they used to say bad news sell very fast and I'll add that it is very profitable and very exciting. Good news on the other hand is boring and less exciting. It doesn't add profit, This is why we see that CNN, BBC, Aljazeera and others will discuss housing scarcity for weeks inviting analyst from university professors all over world. The last time I heard some good economic news was like forever, we are used it and are no longer bothered.
255  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do you pay for signals? And how much ? on: November 20, 2023, 07:05:55 PM
Dlyou pay for signals? And how much ?
What's your monthly expenses for trading signals? Yearly?
I don't pay but i read alot people pay for signals so how good results If this ?
Even though I don't trade often, I am very much against paying for trading signals. Instead of paying for signals, get a successful trading mentor, this will give you access to their signals to achieve wealth. Also, instead of paying for signals, learn the basics of trading, including opening and closing trades, setting profit and stop-loss, risk management, and understanding analysis techniques.
256  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Landfill methane to mine Bitcoin on: November 20, 2023, 06:25:21 PM
Last year, there was a White House report that acknowledged the potential positive impact of crypto mining operations, especially those capturing vented methane to produce electricity. Also, it was sometime in 2021 when ExxonMobil launched a pilot project, the goal was to mine Bitcoin in North Dakota's Bakken oil fields with all their surplus coal seam gas. The way they wanted to do it was instead of sending leftover gas up a stack and flared to  atmosphere, they re-routed the hydrocarbons to a gas turbine connected to a bank of mining rigs. There was also a plan to do the same thing in other countries like Argentina, Nigeria.

I'm so pathetic and depressed because I didn't know Bitcoin quickly. What should I do? Cry
I don't think it's ever too late to invest in bitcoin. Sure, there may be some pullbacks, but if you're in it for the long term, it will always go up and pay off. What I always say to my family members is that I don't think bitcoin is going to make me wealthy or rich, I am just out here trying to preserve my money in to the future with out getting this hidden tax that is inflation.  We just have to accept it as getting poor and poor whilst working harder and harder then ever before.

What percentage of bitcoin investors are gamblers ?  Where will this figure be if we consider worldwide users ? I think it will be somewhere between 10-20% ? Also, it is possible that most of gamblers are still not bitcoin investors ? I see  less chances of the later happening.
I don't know where you got your stats from but I can tell that there are more bitcoin Holders who gamble. Gambling can be a more enjoyable thing using crypto. Everyone who gambles on this forum have Bitcoin or uses cryptocurrencies however not everyone one on the forum gambles despite having Bitcoin.
