4381  Economy / Gambling / Re: Without money, does it still qualify as gambling? on: June 11, 2023, 01:50:38 PM
Gambling without money can be seen as not gambling because finance is the major thing that triggers people to go into gambling for the sake of making profits from it. If you decide to bet without money involving in it, the two parties may not take it that seriously because they believe that money is nit involved in the bet so everyone that make the bet will not take it too seriously because funds is not involved.
Exactly because I believe  winning and losing are what makes gambling interesting and fun as well and i wouldn't  consider superpick as gambling but rather as raffle draw because I see no reason why one should be  giving out no risk money to people and still call it gambling because the gambling i know, has to do with people risking money in forms of bets with hopes of making more money if there is a win and been asked to pick numbers and randomly  select winners,
Wbats the bases of your selections and how are winners selected  and I will also want to know if there are criteria to be selected a winner aside just picking  the number?

5x wagering requirements is insane, but they did mentioned in their terms of service, so you can't blame them even it looks unfair to you. This is the reason why all users need to read the bonus rules, if you've read the 5x wagering requirements you can ask them to lower it, if not you can just choose other casino which the rules is more friendly.

Welcome to scam casino. A lot of us have gone through that experience where users wouldn't really deposit anything if they just knew that the deposited amount is bound to lose. 
This is the Trustdice representative account Coinbox1, you can leave them negative feedback if you think they're scam.
One thing people don't understand  is that no body consciously makes rules that will be against them and people also fail  to understand  that these casinos  are also in business and as such, are there to make profits and there isn't any much need calling them scam simply because you can't meet up with their criteria and I'm sure there are people who are also earning from these casino and still wager even .ore than what the requirements  state.
I also understand  that the terms and requirements really looks scary and in as much as they are trying fight money laundering through their platforms, you don't expect things to be easy.
4383  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Referral bonuses are waste of time on: June 11, 2023, 06:07:35 AM
Regarding referral bonuses, I had experience with this site BC.GAME . I had shared the link via social media only one time and totally forgot about it . Six month's ago when I checked I saw that my total referral commission rewards shown as $30,900 . Without any difficulty I had withdrawn all the money. Neither their was wager restriction nor any question. You may say this site has changed my life.
In 6 months you received a $30,900 referral bonus. Again that dollar is successfully withdrawn from your wallet. It seems like a miracle not only to me but to many people. I can't believe what you are saying. The reason is that no one has ever been able to earn such a large number of dollars by referral. People would believe if you could provide some evidence here. If you have any proof or screenshot you can present it then everyone will understand and believe the thing.
That might be a life-changing amount for a lot of people but for some, it isn't really that much, but, I would say that such things happen sometimes to people who share their referral links, and all of a sudden some gambling whale signs up under them, and this is what happens when they get a whale referral, I've heard one other guy sharing a similar story where a whale signed up using their link and they got a huge amount of money as referral commission.

Getting such referrals and commissions is totally based on someone's luck just like gambling, you won't be able to win anything in gambling if you are not lucky and you also won't get such referrals if you are unlucky, so he is probably too lucky for this that happened to him.

That's the kind of profit you should get if you share a referral link , now when someone shares your referral link it's very lucky to have someone give you , sign up and have a success like that, I don't really know from Bc.GAME , but there is a lot of talk about that site , I have seen in publicity that many are playing there, also the casino reviewers put this casino , but I have not participated there, I imagined that they had this referral system because it is a lot Publicity , if this is the case, it shows that things can happen in marketing , the benefits of a referral bonus are extensive when you get people to register and play.
Well I personally believe him because I believe there are people out there who make massive money out of referrals but even at same time bhanu31 it wouldn't  be a bad idea if you show proves to your earnings atleast to show sincerity.
There are people who those big whales get to use their referral link to gamble and you can imagine how much money those persons will ne making and let's say we get drake to use our referral link, have you thought of how much you could make in referral?
I don't know of the terms of referral  for the mentioned casino but I think most referral  bonuses has some terms and conditions  and might also need you to wager.
Just thinking
4384  Economy / Gambling / Re: Top 5 Advantages of Bitcoin Casinos vs. Traditional Casinos on: June 10, 2023, 10:29:13 PM
You did great with your writings
But I think this is more like talking down on traditional casinos and if these things were to be humans then I would have suspected bitcoin casinos  to have paid someone to talk  down regular and traditional casinos.
Everything  in life has both their advantages  and as well as their disadvantages  and bitcoin  casinos isn't exempted as well and if you are truly making comparisons, then you would have listed the advantages  and disadvantages  of both parties and let the users decide to know what they choose.

Whatever the case be, I'm using bitcoin  casinos and I don't intend going back to fiat because of the withdrawal  time which bitcoin  has helped to comb.
4385  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is not a steady income haven on: June 10, 2023, 10:20:41 PM
Gambling places are not for steady income, if you want steady income with gambling, online or offline, you have to be a owner, build your own casino and watch yourself growing up into a filthy rich billionaire.

Online casinos are places where it's certain that you will lose your money, it's a place where you need to be mentality sane to at least have a good ride and experience as you progress, it's not always about making money with gambling, it's always about not ending up running insane because of gambling.
Yes here only casino owner can earn money very fast and become millionaire or billionaire. But it is never possible for a gambler to become rich with constant income from casino or gambling. A gambler is not always going to make profits but he has to face losses. But there are hundreds of examples of casino executives running casinos and becoming billionaires, but very few examples of a gambler becoming rich overnight.
You're right but I disagree with the fact that it's only casino owners can become millionaire and billionaires and it wouldn't be possible for the regular gambler and I had to pause to reason this because I've seen and read and also heard of stories of people's lives change overnight as a result of their gambling winnings and just as there huge number of people making losses, so there are also a great number of personals making profits as well and I'm sure you guys might  have also heard about one or two persons who won jackpots or major winnings and starts living a better life even without being a casino owner.
4386  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: He Committed Suicide After Losing School fees, And That Of Friend To Betting.. on: June 10, 2023, 09:52:47 PM
Amen to your prayers but I don't think it will be easy for addicted gambler to admit they're addicted not until everything  is lost to gambling  and their lives shattered then will they  understand that they were addicted.
I do feel sorry for the poor boy but I don't think this story is just about the gamblers but also about ones family and I guess that one of the major reasons why this boy committed this suicide  was the thought of his family reaction  when they finally find out that he lost his fees and even that of a friend to gambling and I'm sure that it might even make his parents loss trust in the boy and he couldn't bear all this thoughts and gave up and this should serve a lesson to parents here toward how to talk to their children with love and so correct them in love as well .
4387  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How Confident Are You In The Reliability of the KYC system on: June 10, 2023, 09:45:52 PM
Well I haven't allowed this very one to bother me so much because I gamble mostly on reputable platforms except there are bonuses from new casinos that i will love to check out and we play on this platforms because we trust them and If you trust a particular thing. Then you shouldn't be scared to use them and with all this been said, I think I feel comfortable sharing my kyc with my casino of choice.

I've at some point had similar  opinion with about casinos showing  us the bases and terms on which ones identity is been access and  verified  because I've read cases of casinos asking for kyc  after an attempt to withdraw money and the player's ID was rejected and money seized and I find this awkward.
4388  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you stop gambling (sports betting, casino e.t.c)? on: June 10, 2023, 09:23:37 PM
Wow I think it's  just to break your phone and shot yourself  away from internet and smart phones or electronics.
Just kidding 😂 .
But the truth is that an addicted gambler will never accept that they're addicted and it .amen it hard for them to get help and most times, the victim might pick offense if they're been reported to security personnels and might not feel happy about such even the local community  might not happy with you.
The moment you notice that someone is persistently  making bets and making huge losses, I think it is the responsibility  of everyone around the person to cautions the gambler and that's one of the ways to help call someone to other.
4389  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: how to get over it on: June 10, 2023, 09:14:42 PM
I’ve turned $1,000 into $100,000
I’ve turned $6,000 into $80,000
I’ve turned $11,000 into $550,000
and recently I’ve turned $4,000 into $90,000

With nothing to show for it…I’m a sharp sports bettor, but I always end up going all in. I can never be satisfied until it’s too late. I always need to go all in.

I’ve been reading comments from my last post (turning $4,000 into $90,000 and losing the entire $90,000), and I can’t help but feel like shit.

How do I get over the countless failures? I’ve been chasing the $1,000,000 dream for years.
By now, if you had been using wisdom to your betting victories, you would have reached the $1 million target price you had been pursuing for years. Calculate how much money you could have gained if you learned to relax and quit being greedy by putting all of your winnings in at once (which you do lose).

It will be advisable for you to have a maximum quantity of gains you would go in for on any given day in your gambling winnings, which always end in losses. Once you've done that, your day's worth of betting is over.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who felt op was greedy  because I see no reason why one should go all in a bet with such amount of money and except from the fact that casinos get excited from our  losses, I think there should be some form of staking  limit and not sitting  and watch a player gamble away 90k in a single bet.

Op you really need to work on your emotions and learn how not chase losses because I understand  that as humans, there are some uncontrollable situations  in our lives but the ability  to control  those times makes us masters in such times.
I'm sorry you had to lose such amount of money while trying to achieve your goal bjt you have  to be less greedy.
4390  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you ever felt remorse after gambling? on: June 09, 2023, 09:53:05 PM
I saw this online and thought maybe i should bring on to bitcointalk for discussion.

If a person gamble and at the end of the game he starts to feel remorse is that a good thing or should the person be on alert?
Its not a good thing but I think its a normal  thing  especially  if the money used for betting was sacrificed and was intended for something else, and now you've lost money and now also indebted or be seen as a debtor.
There are times when the regrets come and its mostly after a huge loss and that is why it  is always preached to use the amount of money we can afford to lose.
Greed is one major factors that gives room to regrets because at the end of the day, we loss everything from.greed and end up with regrets
4391  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: European Sex Championship 😳, Will you Bet? on: June 09, 2023, 09:46:01 PM
Yes I will bet but I don't see the possibilities  of this games being listed anytime soon and I was even shocked when I came across this news because I initially never imagined Sweden will do such but unfortunately I was wrong this time and Sweden already made sex registered  and I watched the preview  and I couldn't stop laughing because it was just unimaginable.
There is nothing a gambler wouldn't want to bet on and betting on this type of sports might be in dominance  on its first registration but I guess along the line it will fade off, so I think more gamblers will net on this games if it gets listed.

How do I get over the countless failures? I’ve been chasing the $1,000,000 dream for years.

I was reading your thread with some much keen interest with hopes on how to get cheats and short cuts to how to msme twice out deposit  amount but it turned out that op was actually the one seeking help  on how to get over his losses.

I'm sorry you  lost this huge amount of money and you're just acting as if nothing is wrong which shows that you're already a strong  man and I will  advice that you hang out more with friends if you want to to get out of this mess and also why will.a normal human being gamble away such amount of money and expect me to feel any actual pity for you.
4393  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bankroll management discussion on: June 09, 2023, 09:15:29 PM
What percentage of your bankroll are using as your bet size. I read an article online before that 1% to 3% is the ideal for low risk gambling while 4% to 5% for aggressive gambling. I use the aggressive type bankroll management on most of my game because I’m always bored playing with minimum bets or low percentage of my bankroll because I knew that house edge will kill me long term.

Are using a fixed percentage on your bets or you are just betting random amount? Also do you deposit your total bankroll and just withdraw if you are on target profit or stop loss or you are just depositing exact amount of money for your gambling without extra.
I fall in the categories you've  mentioned above and shamefully I think  I'm a victim of all the examples you listed above.
I wouldn't dare to gamble even 15% of my bank roll, for what purposes will I be tempted to gamble with such huge amount of money and that's because I try as much as possible  to only gamble with money  i can afford to loss.
There are times and periods  that my gambling  will be very random and I just go ahead to gamble recklessly  and most times I also smile to the bank as well.

I wouldn't  advice anyone to use all of their bank roll just for gambling in an industry  you know that nothing is guaranty.
4394  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you guilty of promising not to gamble for specific days but back next day on: June 09, 2023, 08:44:36 PM
I did it many times back when my addiction is very high, I promise not to gamble after I lose a big amount I even swear that I will not, but the following day I'm back even promising to be better and not lose a big amount again.

How many of us are guilty of this?
I'm a thousand time guilty of this and the very incidence that came first to my head was the one that I almost got rejected in my family and I had to swear even in the name of God  but ended up failing all of those promises as soon as I get a better reason to fall back to gambling.
Addiction is a very strong force and it's most times very difficult  to detect and at such it grows so deep before finally been discovered  and it will take so much effort to correct  what it has done and can do.

There have been days of very serious losses that all you ask for in your prayers in the fortitude to bear the loss and we make silly promises to stop gambling but end up gambling again and u wouldn't  have to blame anyone because everyone  wants to be a boss and work independently.
4395  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is There A Time That You Calculated All Your loses In One Year on: June 09, 2023, 08:08:01 PM
Is There A Time That You Calculated All Your loses In One Year One Online and Offline

This is the most depressing thing to do, you'll be surprised at the amount,  I did this 4 years ago on offline number betting and Lottery I kept all the tickets I sometimes win 3rd and 4th prizes but every time I won consolation I increase my tickets I consider this a sign that I will hit the jackpot soon but unfortunately it never happens.

When I count all my losses on numbers and the lottery it's enough to buy a small parcel of a lot and build a bungalow type and we're just renting a room back then.

Again I did it 3 years ago when I become active in online casinos and the amount is also depressing I could have bought a tricycle that I can use for a living.

So I stopped counting my losses and just minimize my betting I just tried to be happy on the thought that I have good times betting and I enjoy the thrill.
I'm glad you were able to stop counting your losses and also minimize  your bets but at some point, I think counting  ones losses also helps us stay in check and cut down our excesses rather than over betting with hopes of a bigger win someday.

I will have to stand on  the opinion that people you do well to check their gambling records so as to keep themselves in check and avoid them from over betting.
At the end of the day one should be .among profits and not losses and when the losses gets higher than it should be a must to check back your records and figure what the problem is.
4396  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Waiting patiently for the next bull run... on: June 05, 2023, 04:08:11 PM
Memes are always here if you know where to look but it is a game of chance and should not be played by inexperienced traders or investors because it is a pump-and-dump game, pure ponzi, there are a lot of rugs happening every day and people are losing money it to, people won't see this but only the Pepe coins and forget the other rugs. I will advise you to invest in a token with real substance or have a chance of success and not all these dog and cat coins

Memecoins are getting very popular because dogecoin succeeded due to the involvement of Elon musk and other memecoins are just benefiting from the affect effect of dogecoin pumping. If dogecoin was to collapse, every other memecoin will rapidly crash to zero. We should be careful when investing.
Without dogecoin pumping, other memecoins don't pump so we should always observe what's going on with dogecoin before we invest in other memecoins. Memecoins don't have any utilities and are pumping based on the hype surrounding the memecoins due to celebrity involvements.
The next bull run will be filled with many memecoins giving investors profits also it'll be filled with many memecoins that are scams and they'll scam many investors because they'll think all memecoins will do well like the other top memecoins. Most of them will rug pull on investors therefore we have to be careful.
4397  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to draw the attention of the market if you're a good project?? on: June 05, 2023, 03:50:33 PM
To capture the market's attention for a good project, it's crucial to establish a strong online presence that includes an engaging community and active social media participation. Building relationships within the community by addressing their concerns, providing regular updates, and being accessible is key. Collaborating with strategic partners can enhance your credibility and expand your reach. You can also try doing Bounty campaigns it can also help in grabbing the attention of potentials investors.

I don't think bounty campaign still has the impact they had in previous years like when bounty was the hottest thing in the market during the 2017 bull market. Now we have more productive ways of getting customers attention and that's through airdrop and other promotions on crypto news platforms.
Marketing is very essential in the cryptocurency market because we have many projects and if you don't promote yours, investors won't have the opportunity to know what your project can offer and invest in it thereby rising the market value and getting the attention of other investors to invest.
Building a strong relationship with your investors and partners is also a good way to draw attention to your project. Partnership gives the investors more reason to trust your project since they see the efforts you're putting into making the project a very strong and well known with the partnerships.

People seem to have become millionaires in previous bull cycles with modest investments in BTC & ETH.  If I invested in 1 BTC, is it enough to make me a millionaire by the next bull run, or are there an elite number of alt coins that could help me safely achieve what BTC & ETH once did?

You can't become a millionaire if you're measuring your wealth in dollars because Bitcoin can't get to $1 million in this bull market. If you also invest that amount in Ethereum, it can't make you a millionaire as well. The only way you can become a millionaire in this bull market is by investing in altcoins.
We have good altcoins that you can invest in and we have those you can invest just for the purpose of riding the hype like memecoins. $Pepe is the recent and trending memecoin and I feel it'll become very popular in the next bull market. You can buy it and make millions of profit but be careful.
Don't invest more than you can comfortably afford losing if the coins fails to reach the peak we're expecting due to other memecoins like Dogecoin and Shiba Inu reached those prices during their peak. Pepecoin might go in the same direction or have a different reaction from the community not believing it.

I just checked the dex are gaining more volume and popularity now a days like uniswap and sushi swap and don't forget The PCS and i just found an upcoming dex named OscarSwap they have a really amazing features and offering passive income for the users i think early adoption of OscarSwap would be great approach as it is on Arbitrium and have a less fees with the high speed transaction further the team is transparent, doxxed , KYced and the contract is audited from certik but now a days it's hard to believe in new projects so what you guys think should i have to take part in early stages of the OscarSwap or not as i am really scared of losing my hard earned money.

Does Oscarswap have their own governance token yet like uniswap and the rest of the decentralized exchange have. If they do then i won't be interested in using the exchange instead I'll keep using the well known ones that I won't be scared of my coins been stolen through cloning of the website.
If they don't have yet then I would risk using their exchange but with a different wallet that doesn't hold my coins. I'll try them because they might carryout an airdrop in the future to reward the first users that made use of their exchange when they weren't popular, those that believed in them.
Airdrops are been ran by new decentralized application and they use this airdrops to gain some publicity which has worked perfectly for those project that did it in the past like Uniswap and I think Oscarswap will do the same. Publicity are good for new projects as it brings new audience to the project.

Welcome to the forum and it seems one needs to install your poker from the Google play store and it also caught my attention that you never mentioned about kyc which has being one of the major challenges in the gambling industry late since after the government  made restrictions to gambling and it will be nice if you make your kyc  terms open and friendly as well and since you accept bitcoin, I think you might have some nice try and I want to welcome to the forum.

You might also want to consider some form of marketing  in firm of signature  campaigns  or bounty campaigns  and just incase you do, do well to check @Hhampuz as his one of the best managers you can think of in the forum.
