Most online casinos out there(especially fiat casinos) operate games that do not adhere to the 'provably fair' standard. They simply use a random number generator to create the result. I'm not familiar with the fairness system of brick and mortar casino's, but aren't they under constant supervision or being audited? So just to be clear our games are indeed fair and just as fair as any other casino, but at this moment they do not adhere to the 'provably fair' standard. So what you're saying is: "Trust, don't verify". That's not how crypto in general works. The vast majority of casinos and casino games are not provably fair. To take your signature casino Stake for example, they only have 14 provably fair games and they are one of the leading provably fair casinos. 95% of the games that stake operate are not provably fair. Fair point (pun intended).
Food for thought: Games in a casino are NOT fair. They should be honest, though. That makes sense (but I never realized it until read it). After all, the house has an edge.

I made a purchase from that person for a Binance account for the value of $70 That's dumb, you can just create an account for free on your own. If you don't want to do Binance's KYC, you shouldn't use them. Using someone else's KYC-account is just waiting to get scammed.

Electric car maker Tesla (TSLA) sold $936 million worth of bitcoin, or 75% of its holdings, in the second quarter, the company reported Wednesday in its earnings report. - The company ended the second quarter with just $218 million in bitcoin, down from $1.26 billion in the previous three quarters.
It's confusing to talk in dollars. I'd like to see the total overview: how many Bitcoins did they buy for what price, and how many did they sell for what price? It sounds like Musk follows the "buy high, sell low" strategy

They are protesting against a group of non-elected people who are in charge of the monetary system. This, in my opinion, is the main problem. Central banks have far too much power, they seem to decide on their own what they're going to do, and nobody holds them accountable for the problems they create.

What could be the state of Bitcoin in the future? Satoshi said something like: it's going to be either really big or really small. my elder brother said that after 2025 Bitcoin will not exist anymore Your brother is wrong. Show him this post in 2026. He also said that after 2025 Bitcoin will not be mined There's no reason for all the miners on the planet to stop mining, without anyone else taking their (profitable) place.

Though I hope to get only one person who reads my posts to avoid using FortuneJack, and any of the organisations advertised here, and not fall in the same trap as I did. The reader of this topic will just see that ForjuneJack paid you close to €100k, just as their Terms state. That won't stop them from playing, but I hope it will make more people actually read through the Terms.

In 2008, 1 euro was worth $1.57 at the peak. That's a 36% drop. Could this have anything to do with expanding the euro zone? The first enlargements after the euro entered circulation were to states which joined the EU in 2004; namely Slovenia in 2007, followed by Cyprus and Malta in 2008, Slovakia in 2009, Estonia in 2011, Latvia in 2014, and Lithuania in 2015.

But it's against the $, and if we have a printing contest the US would win by one hell of a margin. So, why isn't the opposite happening? The Fed has raised interest several times already.
