921  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Regulations in online Gambling sites on: August 17, 2020, 04:57:02 AM
Not only that players could also assure their safety since the casino is been well regulated by the government, we already know how many times scam casinos come and wreck people here so if regulation will implemented we might gonna see a big changes on gambling industry and legit business will come to the scene.
Well, that is ideal actually but if we put government as a third party and to meddle with gamblinh activities then it is expected to see high fees and possible setting of minimum bet for the casino to earn or add the expenses to be paid to the third party (government). This expenses may include taxes and other fees for protection like insurance and permits or licenses. This will make the gambling casino a worst place to gamble.

However, if we remain gambling casino unregulated then it is up to the consumer to join an establish gambling casino to make sure the security of the funds and because most good casino are using cryptocurrency this will ensure that no one can access your fund except yourself. This can be determine as the same level of security or could be much secured than having the government protection in gambling.

The good thing should let the consumer to chose whether to bet in an crypto casino or casino that is being regulated by the government. Well try to see which casino will get higher numbers of gamblers. For all I know gambling is unregulated eveb before but the system works perfectly.

923  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If someone mistakenly sent you 1 ETH, what would you do? on: August 15, 2020, 12:00:34 PM
If ever that there is someone mistakenly sent 1 ETH to me, I would gladly hold it and wait for the right time to have another bull run and then I would sell it  in a higher price so it would more profitable and I will always look to that person as a blessing in disguise to me.
It will be consider as stealing not returning it? I know thay money is one of the reason we need now to survive. Not because of its physical appearance but also to what could it do or buy. If it happens that someone mistakenly sent you an eth worth some dollars the best thing to do is sent it back to the original owner to which public address is visible on blockchain. Who knows that the money you sent back will be used for medical expenses especially now that we are in pandemic and we could deny the fact that most of us need money for emergency purposes or whatsoever for survival.
924  Economy / Economics / COVID19 VACCINE AND ECONOMIC GROWTH? on: August 15, 2020, 11:34:03 AM
It is known worldwide that russia had been into the last phase of the trials of Covid19 Vaccine. It already coordinated with other countries to participate in the last phase of trial and that is the mass vaccination of the said Vaccine for covid19. Some countries like Philippines is wiling to cooperate and even buy the Vaccine.

As I have read some articles about creating a Vaccine would take the usual time frame needed before it will be created and declare as safe could take up to several years like 5-25 years. In this case the Vaccine was being made rush and it could harm people especially in the plan for mass vaccnation. I can't imagine the devastating effect of the vaccine if found out later the bad side effects on human body. Like the Dengvaxia issue wherein most people get injected without dengue history will complicate dengue illness. The dengue will become severe when one injected with dengcaxia for those who had not been into dengue sickness before. The sad thing is that the vaccine effect will take up to 5 years. So, five years of being stress not to get dengue and a life threating vaccine being injected to the body is something awful.

Now, Covid19 vaccine could also be the same as with dengvaxia. I am not questioning the scientist or the russia tech and people doing their research on creating the vaccine. yes they are good but this is not about how they do the reasearch but the effect itself that is not still known and again vaccine making will take years before it can be declared as safe vaccine for the people.

Now, if the trial of this vaccine will come to your place and ask you to get injected by the vaccine for free would you do it? or not?

If it could be proven effective what do you think about the economy of all country which will going to lead now in the economic growth?

925  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Swapzilla Exchange give free 0.1 BTC scam or legit on: August 15, 2020, 11:20:34 AM
Scam no one will give good money and that exchange for me is not good also. It only being made for scamming users by probably paying first a small fee as a service to get the 0.1 BTC. If we consider that amount in dollars that is equivalent to 1,170 USD. Great amount to give for everyone? I bet there will be desperate users that could fall this simple and old school scam or trap.

I guess we should help all the users here to get aware of all things that are being offer especially great or good offers. It is just a bait for you to gey scam. Most likelt they target newbies and they also use newbie account posting somewhere including this section where known to be mostly the first stop of all newbie users.
926  Other / Meta / Re: Battling against scammers?? on: August 15, 2020, 09:41:19 AM
I do not think it's possible for forum to play a role in moderating scams other than developing the DT system. At maximum, forum can only ban an account if someone scam. Imagine, you have been trapped and from your side, you are not a scammer but in others eyes, it seems like you are the scammer. Then you will be banned without any reason eventually. There were such a trap happened couple of days ago although later on, the guy who complain has been detected as an alt of the scammer.
I would rather depend on my ability to verify scam than depending on others. No matter who is moderating the scam.
It is all about the forum management to battle against the scammer instead it is us the users who will do it voluntarily without pay. We can help identify the scammer here especially in their modus that are still not known to others and may let others fall for it if we will not be careful. I guess it will come up to that time that a thread something like that enabling task force to report all the possible scammers for all the users to decide if it is a scammer or not.

However, knowing too the scam and reputation board has a lot of it to see and learn. I guess I will be needing to visit often also into that section so as to learn more about scam activities here and outside the forum. I am glad that I was able to join a  good forum with users helping each other. I think that a user with average knowledge about cryptocurrency is to help report thread that could be scam.

I hope to see other guys also will join here and help to comment in regards how to battle agains the scammer. They can still get so many victims even if they are doing the traditional scamming activity or the old school scamming.

I am already satisfied with my current rank but at the same time I wanted to learn or assess that even an average poster could get a merit and get acknowledge by the legend or high rank user. I was just recently been active in this section and this is why I am trying my best to do good.

928  Other / Meta / Re: Free Advertising, YES or NO on: August 15, 2020, 08:53:21 AM
Yes it is counted and consider as free advertisement since one is not being paid yet. The bounty manager already knows about it but they keep it that way because it is the promotion for the project which bounty manager wanted to keep it up for longer and higher pay for that project.The better promotion it gets, the better pay and longer promotion it could get.

My few cents here in advertising for free does not really affect me as a user. Later on of the application the signature will be remove if not accepted. And if ever I gets accepted then it will not a free advertisement anymore because I will get paid.

There is nothing to worry about it as long as you advertise related cryptocurrency to which most of the users here wanted an improvement with it. I will be happy that I was able to help a project to advertise. Whatever improvement or success being done to that project it means also an improvement to cryptocurrency to which most of us here wanted a development in the world of cryptocurrency to get into the next level compared to what it achieved now.

So free advertisement will be okay for me at least I was helping that project and the users tha are promoting will get higher chances of getting payment. The success of other here is also our success. So let us help one another. But, still receiving few cents of reward still best than doing a free ads.
929  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: The Transition on: August 15, 2020, 08:24:46 AM
Keep it up! for all things will follow. Learning here is not easy. I too get confused about cryptocurrency if only I have no friends helping me out here then probably I left in this forum. I can't get too long with the technical discussion which is only the basic of cryptocurrency but I was having a hard time on it already. I have been posting here a lot and joining too bounty campaign but sad to say did not earn from it instead all of the promise rewards are scam or if there could be a project that pays then it so bad that it will only be like few cents that could not compensate the time and resources through out in the promotion of the campaign.

I was inspire by your posts. The transition you have experience was relatively the same as what I have been experience. Lucky that I was able to join a signature campaign that pays btc. This is now my only chance to change the way I should behave in the forum. I earn a little and that is the good thing keeping me away from those scammers around that are rampant. They are very careless since they do not care about their activities which is very obvious and lesser user now fall for even a simple trap like give me 1 BTC and I will give you 2 BTC. The important thing is that there are many users here willing to guide and always giving input in regards to the forum and the users that are new around.

Extending help is one good thing to do that includes inspiring other users. This posts is one good example of a quality post and not all could do it here. I was amaze how the posts was being prepared and how long the post was been made. As an average poster like me would be having hard time to do it. Anyway, Congratulations on your transition and hoping that it will also inspire other users here like it did to me. Good luck on your journey here in the forum.
930  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: {Facts} Benefits of promoting (joining) a quality paid signature campaign. on: August 15, 2020, 07:03:10 AM
Cryptopreneurboss is one of the prove that joining a signature campaign is the key to give you more knowledge about cryptocurrency and also in this forum. I was lucky that i was able to join a signature campaign which being run by Boss. I consider it lucky because there are lots of user applying for the opportunity but the slots are limited.

Earning here in the forum is not a priority instead it is learning about how it works and how could it be integrated into something. The forum users here are diligent to share their ideas about scamming, hacking and fraud activities that we could learn from it and keeping away from being a victim on their activity.

So, works like this should be acknowldege and the only thing that I could help here is to read a lot, behave in the forum well and educate oneself about cryptocurrency. This is why I need to check this section often to get new info being shared by legends here.

Bump for this thread.
931  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Comparative table on fees among some coins. Pick up one for your need. on: August 15, 2020, 04:12:16 AM
BTC and ETH had higher transaction fee. Is there any reason behind this high transaction fee of both crypto? Well, I think it would be better also to be that way so that whales could minimize their day trading activities if it happen.

Dash, BSV and XRP are have.lowet transactions fee. However, as I observe in coinmarketcap.com xrp had only little increase in its market capitalization probably due to day trading? I will check these crypto for possible pump and dump scheme.

Other crypto in the table are also having low transaction fee. I guess the transaction fee differs on the service of the miners while miningnthe crypto. Besides others are too hesitant to make transactions fast by paying setting higher gas to speed up the transaction.

Pick for August 14, 2020 (SATURDAY)
Game will start on 05:30 AM EST, Korean Baseball League
Match: Lotte Giants - Kiwoom Heroes
WIN!!! - PICK: TAKE the LOTTE GIANTS ML for 4 UNITS (1.99 ODDS).


The Heroes are the second-best team in the KBO and are inching closer to the Dinos. They are just using a spot starter tonight and I do not see that going well for them on the road against Lotte. Yang Hyun has not started a game this season for Kiwoom despite appearing in 33 games. Park Se-woong is going for the home team and he will give you some innings (around 6) and allow just a couple of runs. He has won three straight decisions and has not lost a game since July 5th. Lotte has a winning record against Kiwoom this season and they will enter have won 7 of their last 10 games (1 push).

Best of luck and Grind On everyone.
Nice way expounding the preferred team to bet. I agree with your bet especially to the part where Lotte has been winning 7x straight this season.

However, Kiwoom heroes in other publish sites had the lower odds agains lotte giants. According to https://www.sofascore.com/amp/kiwoom-heroes-lotte-giants/WoAbsipAb the odds of lotte giants is 2.05 odds higher than Kiwwom Heroes with a 46 chance to win in these odds while Kiwoom heroes were lower odds of 1.74 not likely that low with 57% chance to win with these odds.

Well see it later when the play will going to start. This is a good match to watch. I am fan of Lotte giants but my bet will goes to Kiwoom Heroes.
933  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Getting scared is useful! on: August 14, 2020, 09:57:55 PM
I think my greatest fear in cryptocurrency is holding coins that might get into trouble if market will crash. For now, I need money and just saving it in crypto to get chances to earn or if not just to get to use of it in doing transaction since I have the app that uses crypto to pay bills or literally serves as an e wallet. Anyway, for now I was able to see that my savings increases and I made a line where I need to sell it right away if the coin market price drop to the line or in the line of price I wanted to sell. Just to be more safe just in case another market crash will going to happen.
934  Other / Meta / Re: Battling against scammers?? on: August 14, 2020, 09:48:46 PM
This probably isn't a very popular decision, but at least scammers are largely advertising their scams publicly which can be sort of moderated by the community. Therefore, they tend to take a more relaxed way of going about it. If the forum disallowed it completely, and removed them (which would be a can of worms in itself, but I won't go into that) it would likely operate on a more stealthy way, and the exposure, and therefore the awareness could be far less. Make that as you will, but I don't think there's a perfect solution of moderating scams. Its not a case of that we want, and encourage scams on the forums, no one wants that. Its just that its so difficult to effectively "control".
But still we need to educate users here but the proble is that even information been shared here for free but most users are not interested to learn as a result getting scam from fraud people and will only just complain or express here.

How ironic after getting scam they blame the forum for letting this scam activity happen. A few seconds of scanning sections one can find out scam threads. sacmming is very ranpant.

But, I know what to do. Reporting it can do good to the forum. Is there any distinguishing way that the thread has been reported already? I am not pretty sure because  I am still learning here in the forum and cryptocurrency butnas long as it will be reported then i guess it is good to go.
935  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How to DYOR in investing on: August 14, 2020, 09:38:30 PM
That will do but with the team that only aims to scam even though how good is the project it will jusy turn out to be scam later part of promotion or after putting in an exchange. Most of the projects nowadays are dead or will fail unlike in the pas few years to which have higher chances in getting high success rate and reward paying projects that are now listed in the coinmarketcap. There are still good project but it so hard to find them because of the numbers of the projects being created. This is one of the reason that most projdct fails because of the numbers of project and most likely common projects like same purpose of exisiting projects.
936  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What is merit and why do some people have up to thousands? on: August 14, 2020, 01:19:23 PM
Well merit is requirement for you to rank up. And in my opinion getting merit is not easy as it could be. It takes a hardship before you can acquire it like average posters like me. Anyway, I am okay with my current rank and does not wanted to rank up to higher ranks. I can get to use of it and happy that I am earning cents with the campaign I join.

Still if given a chance to rank up then yes sure why not. I can't just get enough merits like those quality posters did here in the forum. You can observe how they do it and follow on how and what they did.
937  Other / Meta / Battling against scammers?? on: August 14, 2020, 01:08:20 PM
Good day!

Recently I visited this section just reading some threads and replies. Still the same users here doing their job extending help to all even it means a hardwork in preparing post all for free. No pays and gains being ask but purely a hardwork that was been aiming to promote the forum. The intention is really good and it encourages actually to other users might be following or doing it the same.

Past posts also in other section the B&H had been sharing info on scammers and hackers activity. Hacking is one difficult problem to solve because they too are careful being caught. Not only that hackers work is very innovative like those copying an interface of a certain program installed in your device needed for an upgrade but it is only to download and install malware programs.

So we as users should be aware and keep always eyes open against them. Is anyone here trying to organize a taskforce to battle against scammers? I do believe it can help theymos a lot by just sharing info regarding on scammer and hackers activity in a thread. I hope so someone will make a thread for it.

All comments bad or good are accepted. Thank You!
938  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Importance of Bitcoin during the Pandemic on: August 14, 2020, 01:49:42 AM
but Bitcoin should have a function to be one of the payment options available in all countries. because during the pandemic, many people do not make direct physical contact and prefer to make digital payments, maybe that is the best option for bitcoin in the future
Yes bitcoin in future will surely gets acknowledge even up to now the present had already been acknoedge by the government and other countries are giving already other exchanges and apps the license to operate that includes the advise from its consumers the possible risk it can get.

For now most banks do well in this pandemic. Most of the transactions now are being done online to which trust now doing business online is high already. Because of this bitcoin may find a way to evolve and bring digital currency into the next level.
939  Other / Meta / Re: Bitcointalk.org YouTube channel? on: August 14, 2020, 01:35:05 AM
The forum could spend somehow a little bit of money for the said project. I think it could only take little expenses for just the compilation from.the users contribution on the said project. It can't that much since the forum has some money for it to happen. Aside from that I think it would be also good to make an event here in the forum as to get more good vibes in the forum. As what satoshi did when he was able to give his parts of his btc as rewards.

Anyway, hope to see positive outcome of this idea from theymos.
940  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Mike Tyson vs Roy Jones Junior [PPV on Nov. 28] on: August 14, 2020, 12:43:46 AM
Looks like that this fight will be postpone to a later date this year.

Seems like the marketing strategy of both fighters did not work as the interest of boxing fans to watch this fight is low.

https://www.boxingscene.com/mike-tyson-roy-jones-exhibition-bout-reportedly-postponed--150806

Probably and as said

 ". According to the Ring TV report, the reason for the postponement was due to the belief that a later date could help generate more revenue for the event which has caught massive mainstream attention, even if in circus-like fashion."

When they do talk about circus-like action is on including a youtube star and a Former NBA star on undercards. Such postponement would really be enough to possibly to spark out peoples interest?
Yeah I agree that this is their marketing strategy for the fight to postponed. The decision will be based on the statistical report of how much they could earn in the fight. Seems like they were a little bit doubtful for the possible income of the result. Well hoping for them the best. The fans can't to see how Mike Tyson comes back as boxer after retiring in the pass few years.

Seems like the marketing strategy of both fighters did not work as the interest of boxing fans to watch this fight is low.

Just read the article about that. Aside from that, the world is facing the pandemic so people might not want to spend on a PPV for now.

Maybe the best time would be next year. If only this fight were executed last year, it might generate a big revenue even for a charity or exhibition match.

Time now to change the thread title.
NBA had already started and other sports activities already did like football games. When we talk about physical contact, NBA and football games has a lot of contact. All of it will depend on the organizer on their decision to make. But, most of the decision to consider of course is how they can earn in the match when there will be no crowd in the arena to watch that could buy tickets for them to get at least some financial consideration. Pay per view is the only key for them to earn in this match. Whatever things will going to happen hoping that this match will going to push through.
