121  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How do cryptocurrency increase the standard of living on: February 26, 2024, 04:29:43 PM
Knowing fully well that there is so many uneducated people around the world, how can cryptocurrency increase the standard of living
Crypto gives us opportunity to earn on our own phase.
But that doesn't really mean that investing in crypto would really changes everyone's life.
We shouldn't forget that this is investment and there would always be a risk.
As you've said there are so many uneducated people around if they couldn't educated their self on crypto then they would just waste their time and money.

It is not enough to have diploma or degree to survive or be wealthy, what's the use of your degree or diploma if you couldn't even land a job on your chosen profession?
There are other's who are working on different field because of the lack of job opportunity or in order to earn more or survive, sometimes you even need to manage your funds even if you are earning good amount from your job.
Cause no matter how much you earn if you don't know how to manage your money or you are spending more than you are earning then you would always be short or needs to borrow in order to survive.
123  Economy / Economics / Re: Why we should prioritize investment over saving on: February 25, 2024, 03:25:36 AM
Saving our hard earned money have never been a bad idea, but their are certain things we need to consider before thinking of saving, such as inflation.
Inflation is truly the real enemy to every money that is being saved up, because when the time is right like a year time, when it should be used for it purpose, the value wouldn't be as how it actually was when you started saving it, but on the other hand, if we have been investing that money into Bitcoin, land or gold bit by bit, over the course of a year, the value of that your investment would have added additional value compared to our savings that will be eaten up by inflation.
So too me we should think of investing more of our money than saving it, so that  inflation wouldn't eat it up.
There is a huge difference between investment and saving as you said, saving would only make the value of our money be smaller or the things that we could buy with it would be less in the future due to inflation.
The problem in investment is not everyone is cut out for it, they would just focus on the profit not considering the risk.
One of the biggest example that we could give is those who invested in crypto without proper knowledge, and those who would cry every time that the price drop down.
When investing your money you should always consider the risk not just the profit, most of the investor of crypto focus on the successful stories not knowing the road that they take to be successful isn't easy as we think.
124  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A lot of gambling sites are scams ! on: February 25, 2024, 12:47:32 AM
Online betting has become the main concern for the majority of young people, as players flock to casinos forcefully to obtain the largest possible amount of money. There are those who invest thousands and millions of dollars, but there is a serious problem as the majority of sites provide facilities to ensure players’ participation and entice them with large sums of money. Then they steal every cent directly. There are sites that do not target young players, as their victims are those with large amounts of money. Other sites initially deal transparently and seek to gain the trust of the players until they obtain a large audience. Then they begin their hellish plans. So , the majority of gambling sites are unsafe and it's hard to trust them .

How can I choose the best betting site that provides me with a safe betting experience?
Does this site provide a high level of safety for its players?
I need help from those with experience in this field
This is also the reason why I stick to the gambling or betting sites that I've known for long.
It is hard to trust your money to some new sites, and for me if I wanted to try out new sites I would search for some feed backs and read some threads on this forum to evaluate it.
There are times that the site would also have giveaways or bonus just to register and try their site, and it would end up requesting deposit to claim the money.
125  Other / Off-topic / Re: Having a regular/steady income is important as a gambler. on: February 24, 2024, 11:24:44 PM
If you do not earn, where will you even see the money to gamble? If your weekly income is not enough, that means it is foolishness that will make such a person to gamble. But if you are able to earn enough and safe and able to use like 1 to 5% of your weekly income to gamble without affecting you and your family financially, that is wise.

Gambling though is a risky game that the chances of winning and losing is in equilibrium but however in other for one to have a possibility of winning, it requires a steady income.
Having a steady income does not guarantee that you will have possibility of winning while gambling.
Yes I agree with this if your income isn't enough to provide what is necessary for you and your family then gambling even a small amount is really foolish.
Regular gambling with your spare money for fun would be okay, but if you want to earn or your aiming to have profit then I think it is really bit foolish to consider it, cause even if you do win on some of those games does it really cover for all the times that you lost?
If you are aiming for profit then it is better to learn other things than risking it all on luck.
126  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is the highest amount of money you've ever bet in a single game? on: February 24, 2024, 10:13:59 PM
Hi guys, I don't know if something like this have been discussed here in the past, a thread a I previously commented on made me curious about this, so I decided to ask here.

It's a pretty forward and simple question, which is...
1. What is the highest amount of money you've bet on a single game in the past?
The highest that I've had recently was around $199 I know for some it isn't much.
2. Did you win or lose that game?
I did lose that round it was on a crash game and the round ended at x0
3. Was it an amount you were actually ready to comfortably lose?
I would be lying if I say yes, but honestly it started with a $30 and I would go all in each time that I would bet, to the point that it got to $199 and it was my last round I was actually going to cash it out, I just decided to play one last game since the previous rounds ended with small multiplier I thought that it would be safe to bet and cash out with small multiplier too but the round ended with x0.
127  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Invest in Bitcoin, for long time Holding on: February 24, 2024, 09:09:25 PM
There are many types of Bitcoin investors, some invest for long-term holdings, while others invest for short-term holdings. But one thing is true, those who invest in Bitcoin for short term are never able to achieve anything big. On the contrary, they face more losses.

every Bitcoin investment should be long-term. Because we have seen that even at the end of 2023 the price of bitcoin was 42k and as the year 2024 falls, the price of bitcoin has crossed 50k and currently the price of bitcoin is 52k. So now consider that those who invested in Bitcoin in 2023, when the price of Bitcoin was hovering between 26k and 27k, have already received double returns. So those who have been patiently holding Bitcoin since then have already reaped double the return on their investment.

Now another big opportunity is going to come in front of us. When the price of Bitcoin will increase much more than that. So I would say, those who haven't invested in Bitcoin yet, make a final decision to invest in Bitcoin for lone time Holding now and hold until the next ATH. You invest in Bitcoin and keep your Bitcoin holdings safe, because the next bull market is going to have the power to change your life. So just Hold bitcoin for long time.
It comes down to their trading skill some are good at day trading or short term trades, so we couldn't really say that they could never achieve anything big.
What if they are making use of the Bitcoin price movement on short term trades to gain more Bitcoin rather than just holding their Bitcoin?
We should never look down on those short term investor, they could always reinvest their winnings to gain more.
128  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin and its impact on my life: A journey to a better tomorrow. on: February 24, 2024, 08:14:54 PM
Believe it or not crypto is helping a lot of people to make their life or future better.
There are so many people who are using crypto as another source of income, while other's are using it to hold their savings and earn more than they could get if they just let it sleep on their bank account.
Crypto has given us a chance to earn more than what we could and made it easier for every to start their investment journey.
129  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you pay attention on other people bet and it amount, and does it affect you? on: February 23, 2024, 09:26:51 PM
Yesterday, when I was playing Crash, I have caught myself thinking that I watch on how much people bet, how much they won and lose. First I have felt envy, when I saw one guy bet 200-300 bucks all the time for half and hour and cashed out with 2+ multiplier. Among bets in range of 1 sat to a dollar, he was really standing out. Then I have noticed a guy who was betting a dollar and did not cash out until rocket passes 10x. I was also amazed how a guy bet 1k, and lost it when the rocket banged at 1.00x, then he immediately made another 1k bet and the rocket banged at 1.03x. Then I saw him winning +5k bucks.

That is how the idea of this topic appeared. I watch others gamble, I watch how the bet, I start to think about betting more than usually. Do you have such feeling also? Do you have a feeling that if others make large bets, that you also must bet large, otherwise you would feel like uncomfortable, or feel like a poor among rich, or something of that kind.
I also watch gamblers play crash game and sometimes it is also my go signal to bet when a high amount is being bet on that round.
I like to play along with those gambler at least if I lose I know that there are other gamblers who had it worst (LOL)  Grin , even though the amount that they are gambling might only be small for them.
But there are times that I would just watch and see how they play it.
130  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How will you feel if it happens to you just like this? on: February 23, 2024, 06:39:31 PM
Predicting outcome when there is no risk everyone could do it, but not anyone could take the risk to bet and see the outcome of their prediction.
We could predict every match that we would see in gambling sites/casino or betting sites, the chance that we would get it right would always be 50/50 even if we know nothing about the game, and we could guess some correctly but we need to know that it is really useless to do it since we wouldn't get anything from it.
We are only giving ourselves something to regret when we already know that we wouldn't take risk on that match that could change our life.
We would feel bad about it if our prediction would be correct, and we would feel great if our prediction is wrong since we didn't lose any money on that certain game.
131  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Pay off DEBT by do Gambling? think again before you loss more on: February 23, 2024, 04:24:28 PM
I have a hanging out friend who is having trouble paying his house installments, he wanted to borrow money from me but I didn't give it to him because I didn't have the amount he was borrowing at that time, I advised him to borrow from another friend but their answer was still the same, finally, he was a little desperate and with the little money he had he put the money into the online slot application, unfortunately, instead of succeeding in doubling his money, he lost all his money because he lost in the online slot application

The valuable message that can be taken from my friend above is never take risks to gamble to pay off your debts, the pressure is very big, the chance is very small that you can pay off your debts, often you end up losing even more and losing your money. look for loans, sell your valuables or look for part-time work to pay off your debts, is a good way rather than playing the small money you have in gambling
If a person couldn't even pay their bills or necessities, then why would they even risk losing their money on gambling?
In gambling or investment only risk what you could afford to lose and they couldn't even afford to pay what they need so why would they even have to risk what they have?
I only agree on instead of risking the little money that they have in gambling they should focus on earning more than they are currently earning since it is clear that it isn't enough, even if they do take loan they would still be indebt so it is useless, the only solution would be to earn more.
132  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can Anyone +18 Play Gamble? on: February 23, 2024, 12:17:28 AM
Does gambling needs experience or anyone +18, even the inexperienced one can also play? Though playing gamble has a limited age grade or age bracket and the accepted is from  +18 years and there are some casinos hall at the door post, it is written clearly that it is only people of +18 can play. But what about the inexperienced ones, are they allowed to play gamble as well? Or they are also restricted to have the fun? In my observation, there are two elements to participate in gambling. One, you must above 18 years in my country and secondly you must have an experience to play, so I want to know if inexperienced people can also play gamble.
How could you gain experience if you aren't allowed to gamble?
If it is about the age restriction then many people have bypass it before, they would gamble even if they are underage in ways that they could.
Gambling isn't just casino there are other ways to gamble, even in schools before others would gamble when they have free time if they want.
This is funny it is like when people applies to a job and they just become legal age to work, and the work place are looking for a minimum years of work experience to be employed how could they have that experience?
133  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Couple won the jackpot but split soon after! on: February 21, 2024, 11:18:10 PM
For me it should be split in half as it mention that both of them couldn't won it if wasn't for each other.
One of them made the suggestion to gamble while the other was the sponsor for the ticket.
If neither of them agreed on it then they wouldn't even won that jackpot.
134  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Must you lose before you gain in Bitcoin investment? on: February 20, 2024, 06:30:34 PM
Questions like this has popped out in several occasions and arguments concerning Bitcoin investment. My friends will say you must lose before you gain or rather have more experience investing in Bitcoin. If its how it work, Bitcoin isn't for a low income earner as well as not gonna make you rich when you can't invest something tangible to it. On the other hand people are been made big and wealthy in same program. What does it in tell, cos am quite sure people had already known what's going to happen in the market in the nearest future to give them the strong mindset to invest porously. My biggest fear is losing my hard earn to something as volatile, vulnerable and uncertain as btc. What's the possibility you invest without losing. Is it guaranteed in this kinda market?
This is why you should only invest what you could afford to lose.
You should remember that there would always be a risk in investment, there is no 100% sure win.
There are people who did gain on their first Bitcoin investment and losing is part of the journey, you should just use that experience to grow.
135  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can bitcoin be stolen? on: February 20, 2024, 04:25:35 PM
Yes if they could access our wallet then they could steal what's inside it.
There has been so many case about crypto currency hacking, even trading sites got hack from the past and lost some of their customers crypto.
136  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Wins: Your Money Was Returned to You. on: February 19, 2024, 11:31:54 PM
There have been saying that before you win a game in gambling, you would have lost enough funds and that means you didn't win any new or extra money to yourself but the casino return part of your money which you have lost before to you. And some will still say that what about those who have not playing gamble before and they won in their first day in gambling. Well those people newly converts to the gambling system will still dash the casino company that win again because the first time win is always to lure them to the system and making them to perpetual adoration to gamble. And I don't think someone in the gambling industry has as a win win gambling history. Or you wins are bigger than the loss. And all the experiences I have in gambling I have not seen that and also those of my friends who are gamblers have not to me that they only win and there is no loss record in their gambling history. And all the ones I have seen and known, the loses are more than the wins. And when I carefully look at the argument I also accept the assertion that what you win was part of your loss. Is that true? Make your input.
If that is how you would view it then you couldn't really say that you win or lose from your previous gambling activity since you would surely continue on playing.
You could only say you won or lose until you finally decide to stop or quit for good and calculate the outcome of all your gambling activity, but I guess it would really be hard to do since it is hard to keep track of all your gambling activities from the very start you gamble.
We declare our loss or win at the end of the day since we already take the result of that day as final for it, so that the next game would be a different record for us no matter what the result would be it wouldn't affect the previous one that we had.
137  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you stick to some Casinos or do you try out new ones? on: February 19, 2024, 08:30:56 PM
I was discussing with a friend yesterday about the choice of Casinos and the great incentives that comes with trying out these new legitimate platforms. He told me bluntly that he doesn't try out new platforms because  it will make him gamble more and will waste his time trying to understand their UI, terms and conditions and their support system. He stressed that he has already developed fondness with a few sites that treats him fine and he even has their support hot lines in case of any issues.
I challenged him that there were exciting offers in these new casinos that he's missing out on but he stressed that he was not interested in their offers, he has already built his gambling life around these few casinos and until they disappoint him, he's sold out to them.

what do you think?. Do you believe he is right with the rigid approach to gambling?,  also should I continue convincing him  to try out something new and enjoy these great offers?.
What's the point of convincing your friend to try other casinos?
What's in it for you, if he already have some casino that he is comfortable playing with then there is nothing wrong with it.
Your friend gave you a valid reason why he doesn't want to try out other casino, you should just accept it and move on.
I could see why your friend doesn't want to try out new gambling sites or casino, specially if he have limited time and enjoy gambling it would really be a waste of time to learn all of what he mention above.
Rather than reading and understanding all of those, he just wants to sit and enjoy or start the game ASAP.
138  Economy / Gambling / Re: Betting without losing your money/no need for deposit on: February 11, 2024, 09:51:03 PM
While not original, good idea in combining faucets and gambling. It worked for Freebito.in after all. It's a little bit of a waste of time for the player but a good combination for the operator.

One problem that I have with your thread OP is that you've put no effort into the design or providing information. Advertise your platform! Splash some colors, tell us why it's a good solution, list all the platform features etc. This is essential if you want to increase the results that you can get by posting in this forum.

Good luck Smiley
Well as they mention it is enjoying gambling without risking your own money or needs to deposit, so basically it would be like a trial for their game on site and with faucets you shouldn't really expect much.
They are just letting their user enjoy their game for free by using their faucet and honestly they have many games to enjoy.
P.S just tried their website a couple of mins and played for free.

139  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How many hours is the best time for a gambler to last while gambling? on: February 04, 2024, 11:16:02 PM
For me as long as the gambler could control their emotion and still be aware of their limits then it doesn't matter how long they play.
They should know what to prioritize, if they don't have anything to do or they are on their day off why not let them enjoy their time the only thing that they need is to control how much they would spend on that day.
For me it isn't about the time that they spent specially if they have nothing to do, it is the amount of money that they are gambling that we should be wary of.
Some gamblers could spend less time on gambling but risking a high amount of money, while others who just wants to enjoy are spending much time while knowing their limits.
140  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you a generous gamblers on: February 04, 2024, 03:13:17 AM
I would also consider myself a generous gambler, since I would also treat my friends or family when I win in gambling.
Most of the time it wouldn't really bother me much if I win or loss since what I am using to gamble is my spare money, so it doesn't really matter much to me and if I win I would celebrate it with them.
But if I loss then that's it no hard feelings or whatever, I think I am not the only gambler who is like this, we enjoy the game and if we win we would celebrate it with someone close to us.
