Also, there is the fact Stake or other reputable casino which is properly registered could face some backlash from regulators by minting a token in that way. In jurisdictions like the United States it could even considered to be an unregistered security.
That being said, a casino as successful as Stake does not have any necessity to launch something like that in order to continue leading the way in this industry.
Stake should be open for a possibility. If the needs arise and the gambling trend goes to tokenized casino, and assuming the means of tokenizing casino is now legit to any jurisdiction, then it won't harm Stake to go with the trend. with their huge usebase and huge number of whale players, I never doubt that stake will be successful in launching his own token. But right now, I also do not think there is a need for Stake to launch his own token. Stake marketing strategy and promotions are very effective in keeping and inviting new players. That said, I believe it is enough to keep Stake on the top. There is no need for the launch of Stake tokens. For now Stake is well organised and doing things in the right way with the partnering at specific time interval. These acts gives much exposure to Stake. Something tokenised and the same can be a problem if things go in the wrong way. We can't predict things to be perfect all the time. Another thing the same can be used as the tool by the competing platforms to down its market. |

The risk will be high and if lucky you'll also be able to make good profit. This is how investment on new projects work, because even the much expected new projects used to fail at times. Good choice, spend what you can afford to loss. Just spend and consider it to be lost forever, such mentality is required while investing on new projects. If luck is in favour of you the investment turns to be worthy.  |

Whenever I experience big loss I make plans to quit gambling. With much difficulty it lasts for atleast one month. Soon after that once again the wavering mind gets directed into gambling. At times long break gives good winning during comeback, but missing the comeback luck and continuing to make further wins once again leads to loss. So most of the time while making comeback I used to limit myself and enjoy the winning. Every gambler would've made such decision atleast once.

Lol this pitch giving nightmares to Australian media and fans. They already started saying that this is an unfair pitch as the Australian team has 5 left-handers in their top 7 lmao.
Loving the premature comments. They should be hopeful that with such a pitch they have a more or less equal chance of winning the match.
I am telling you this pitch would be a nightmare for every batter. Knowing the Australian side I know how well they play spin. For a change, I am happy they will be experiencing a pitch suitable for the spinners. They are more accustomed to bouncy pitches whereas this pitch will test their batting skills so it will also be for Indian batters. Who wins the toss will be important on this pitch. I hope luck favors Rohit! I also have a hunch that this test match will be over before the 5th day. In cricket, it is an accepted rule that wickets should favor them, but does this seem especially extreme? On Twitter, Nagpur pitch pictures have gone viral. The pitch is clearly rigged in India's favor. There may be four spinners in India's lineup, while the rest of Australia's top order is left-handed. As a result, we cannot ignore the claims of most Australian experts regarding the difficulty of this pitch for Australian batters. However, it will be interesting to see what the ICC says later since the pitch might rate low or below average. This is common practice with every cricketing nation. When the tour is being scheduled they change the pitch in favour of their performance. The outcome isn't cent percent, so it is the players real performance that matters unlike the change of pitch being altered in favour of spinners. Anyhow tomorrow is going to be very interesting as the cricketing ethusiasts around the world will have a reminder to watch atleast the scores. |

Based on the information from Coin ATM Radar USA and Canada leads with the increased number of ATMs available for usage. El Salvador stands 6 th position which is really a big reach considering the difference in population between the countries like Canada and USA. Based on the population difference it looks like USA have got around 700 Bitcoin ATMs for every 7 million population. The same when calculated for El Salvador, for the total population of around 7 million it have got 212 ATMs. To reach the level of USA, the country needs to have more usage and acceptance that lets Bitcoin ATM Service providers install more ATMs in El Salvador. |

|
on: February 06, 2023, 09:33:26 AM

Have you guys tried tailing high rollers with their bets on sports and electronic sports? Because today I tried doing it just for an experiment and I took a bet on 5 games even without knowledge about them. I didn't put too much money into it because like I said, it's just for a trial. It didn't end up well and these are the results. 4 losses and 1 win.  I copied the bet of users who are mostly playing above $1000 per bet. Some 1 Ethereum and the other with 0.1 BTC if I remember it right. So I thought, these gamblers are not joking about their bets, they must have researched hard and knew who has the highest chance to win or the end result of the scores. Question: Has anyone been successful in doing this? I know it's not right to bet on a game without knowing about it, I am just curious if someone does this kind of strategy. The level of seriousness of bets wouldn't necessarily be determined by the amount. It is reasonable to assume that $1,000 to someone with $100,000 is equally as valued to $10 for someone with $1000. The rationale or thought would be the same for the person betting $10 as someone betting $1,000. I think that the trial that you conducted somewhat proves this theory. Agreed, every gambler bets upon their ability. In such manner, what's been said is true. For someone having $1000 in wallet and spending $10 is same as a person with $100000 in wallet spending $1000. It is all about the prediction, from the bet slip it looks like the person have tried to bet against the odds. Betting against the odds could bring good return if lucky, and this time it is not his day and so is OP's day  |

Why do I feel that this info has been copied from an older forum thread(or somewhere else)?  Do we really need to know that kind of stuff? Should we really care about "the first online casino" or "the devil's game"? There's nothing interesting about knowing that 80% of the gamblers are men. It's pretty obvious that almost all gamblers are men. Slots are the simplest gambling games, that even retards can play. It's obvious that the simplest gambling games are the most popular. Some really interesting fact I wanna know is how much the online casinos are making per year and how much taxes are they paying in the countries where gambling is allowed. Agreed, these facts aren't necessary to be known. However certain things are general, and we aren't aware of those things. Going through the OP will let you have a small understanding about the online gambling from its beginning days. Some facts I prefer to be known were something like Sweden got highest number of female gamblers than male gamblers. More than 80% of the American population have gambled in their lifetime. |

Perth Scorchers' reliable batting managed to win the match. Every batsman has tried to score runs and everyone can be said to be successful. Ashton Turner in particularly the captain of the team and he has done his due diligence. He collected 53 runs off 32 balls from his bat. It can be said that he has played the biggest role in the final match. Besides,other team members were also able to run, so the team was able to easily control the big target.
BBL 2022 is finally over and Perth Scorchers are the winners. After IPL, BBL is the biggest and finest league. Brisbane heat should have scored 190 to 200 but they just scored 175 runs and lost 7 wickets. Perth Scorchers team easily chased the target with 4 balls to spare Once it was Big Bash League and the popularity is now stolen by the IPL. India have got the biggest market for cricket and the same is being well utilised by the cricket board. Now IPL for women is started this year, which too a good move. Perth Scorchers didn't win the final in an easier way. The team struggled much and if Aston Turner hadn't performed at the right time this could've been a win for Brisbane Heat. India is one of the few populous countries in the world. The importance and development they have given to cricket is appreciable and definitely Australia lags behind in that regard. At present Australia's Big Bass has also not been successful in business due to which we see that they have decided to reduce the number of matches in the next season. Above all I would say that India has the talent to dominate the cricket world which is not easy for others. There were more criticism that a country that is on the top in population unable to be on the top list of Olympic medals. This is true Cricket have taken away the importance of other sports in India. Slowly people of India have begun to give importance to each and every game. Upon the same for each and every sports leagues were conducted. Now Indian people continue with cricket giving equal importance to other games as well. For this reason it is really hard to defeat India and take its position. |

The two West Indies openers are playing brilliantly. West Indies collected 221 runs without losing any wicket. Two batsmen scored over 100. I don't think Zimbabwean bowlers will bowl that badly. The series is sure to be a draw. West Indies may collect big, but chances of victory are slim.
The performance of the two West Indies openers impressed me. Chanderpaul remains unbeaten with 101 runs. And his strike rate is 34.7. And Brathwaite scored 116 runs unbeaten. Brathwaite's strike rate is 47.15. The two West Indies openers are batting very responsibly. Also, Zimbabwe's bowling is very weak. However, the match was delayed due to rain. Even though two days have already ended, not even an inning has ended. Chanderpaul and Braithwaite playing real test cricket. In recent days with more T20 matches played, players started to play test cricket matches same as T-20 matches. Already two days over and this match gonna end in draw. Within few days the much expected India vs Australia Border - Gavaskar Trophy to begin. Four test matches between the two will be enjoyable days for the cricket fans. |

What do you guys think about the possibility that bitcoin will crash down below 20k again before going beyond 24k?
Yes, I thought so too. But my estimate is that this condition will take place between April and September. For now, things are still running normally, even if the bull market condition is still going on. Most likely the month of September will start from the bull run market. Everyone know well about the volatility of the bitcoin market. This is no surprise that we've got chances of dropping down in value over the falling months. For now everything is in good position. The downward movement happens in connection with the upcoming halving. From the low price it'll slowly start to increase. Only then it can reach higher prices, if not bitcoin might look overpriced. |

We human must not depends on a single source of income such as office job. I think being self employed would be more profitable and keep you off from financial stress, even though you must work in an office then it's best ideal to have multiple stream of income in other not to be affected much financially. Those working in an office are highly exposed to lose their job at any given time, most times having a skillful works also help you much as well, where you could also renders your services and get paid for the particulars task or skill.
Being your own boss have multiple benefits to the extent that a self-employed individual can easily manage his time and make it flexible to accommodate a side hustle for extra income. But what we must note is that a side hustle also requires time investment and how you manage that time in building the stream matter the kind of result you get. It is far better to have one good source of income than to have multiple sources of income streams to will lead you into confusion later in the job. but being your own boss brings in so much responsibilities to you as well. You are cleaner - manager - cashier of the business at the same time Being our own boss makes the profession more interesting and it push us to go ahead and perform better and better over time. In simple, when we experience good profit or success out of reaching a level, the happiness and excitement will be different and that can't be enjoyed from the day job. The risk is high, but the feel is different and atleast for this everyone should try to be their own boss. |

Economy / Gambling / Re: What sort of Weekly & Monthly Bonuses do Bitcointalk members want?
|
on: February 05, 2023, 11:47:05 PM

Its understandable and this one reason on why some players are really that pushing themselves on hitting up those levels since they do able to see and cherish out those bonuses on which it is far
way more better than into those new users or casual gamers in the platform.Its part of the business and it would be normal that they would be giving out more perks to those who had wagered more.
Its true that there would be no point about those vip benefits if everyone would really be acquiring it equally.It would be useless and no sense at all.
The thing i do like is that they do set out some non so hard wagered requirement for each level to make it look interesting plus having those additional perks which we do
feel that it is really worth to reach a particular level.
According to what I see, many players lose more in the process of getting the VIP level that they want. They can lose thousands of dollars and this all in exchange for a tiny reload, cashback, other forms of bonuses. It's not worth it in my opinion but that's them. It was their money so they still can do what they want but for me, I will just do my own thing which is to play the normal way. There is no stress when you know that you aren't chasing anything, either it was a VIP rank or your own losses. For a question like the OP was asking, it's expected that many will request an easy-to-achieve bonus but that is something that can't be done easily by a casino because they are here for business and not to give out money. You are definitely right on what you have said on which im not really that a fan on chasing up those VIP levels and trying out to achieve something on the time i do play.It does really give out that kind of benefit but its true that it wont really be that worth considering that they do only give out small amounts of rakebacks or cashbacks which is way too far off on what you had lost or wagered.If you dont mind off about these things then it wont really be that much of an issue but if you are really that tending to chase up then its never been worth.You would really be just making yourself that desperate because you are chasing into something which it isnt really that worth at all. Just gamble and enjoying is the right thing to do. When we look for increasing our rank surely this gonna hurt. Maybe one out of 50 gets lucky and reaches the next ranks in an easier way through wagering done to reach next level. Everyone knows well, it is the small increase in the rakeback and bonuses, but the mind always tempts to increase the level. If I'm not wrong, most of the gamblers will have this urge. |

This is dependent on the location. For example, in Sweden, research has shown that more women gamble than men, and when it comes to the type of games that women love playing at online casinos, more results on the internet have said that slots are the go-to games for them. Why? because they can socialize with others around them without having to focus on the cards in their hand. Maybe gambling platforms can follow these kind of hidden tactics to keep its users at good place. Same as that I've heard that specific location have got good winning probability. This means the winning probability on platforms vary between different time zones. Have anyone encountered something like that, and even some have taken this into discussion amidst everything is transparent and can be checked. |

Economy / Economics / Re: When your passive income equals or slightly above your salary, what would you do
|
on: February 05, 2023, 11:23:53 PM

I have been in a job I detested and although I somehow managed to stay at it for up to 4 years, I didn't even for once let go of my passionate hobby and other passive streams of income I was interested in at the time.
Today, one of my passive interests pays more than my salary. My mind has been yearning for a resignation, but opinions of others and family bears the message of patience with the job I so much detest for reasons ranging from inflation to fear of the unknown.
If you were in my shoes, what would be the best advice you would give yourself and adhere to in this instance?
Find a good job first that will replace your old hated job, one that also promise a good compensation, then you can leave your old job. And never settle into a single side hustle, if you think you can do more with your time availability, go for it as long as you have your high interest on it and you have the skills to make it more productive. Having a passive income is good, but in order to sustain that, you have to keep learning and developing your skills so that you will keep the productivity in your job and that will make you progress in the long run. in many case people - choice in this case would be to quit their job, and give time to the passive income idea - but I'm not saying you should do that. But that is totally on you what is making you happy. if your passive income makes you happy then you can quit your job and work on it on the own If there is assurance that the passive income will continue to be high then it is ok to think further to leave the job and focus on it completely. We can't have such an assurance with most of the passive income. For this reason it is good to have the job and keep the passive income continue as now. If not, investing the income out of passive job on something else for further revenue seems to be fair. |

Hopefully you learn a lot of things before executing your orders since sometimes even if we think we are prepared about accumulating small portion of bitcoin from time to time still there are unfortunate things will come to test the market also our patience so hopefully you will not go on same situation with others where if they see the market is dumping they became crazy ad get panic to dump their bitcoins thinking that they can save their asses if they do so.
Much better to know yourself if you can handle such pressure since for sure once bull run came and your patience is so high together with your beliefs for sure you can earn with this.
As long as you decide to invest, there will always be inevitable and unexpected losses that will come along the way, so hopefully OP is aware of that and will not be affected easily if the market price suddenly crash because that’s how volatility works. However, investing in bitcoin in the crypto market is the perfect choice, but it does not guarantee that it will make you rich eventually. You will have to experience undesirable losses at first and that will seriously test your patience and faith in bitcoin. If you can survive from that, then you will be a successful bitcoin investor in the end. It is a must to know about the market risks before investing. With bitcoin the requirements were simple, one need to have the patience to hold. Don't urge for the bullish market. Should know how to move along with the market. When these were possible it is an easy thing to invest. Once after making the purchase OP will get to know more about it. Primary thing in which he needs to focus is keeping his purchased bitcoin in a secure wallet. |

Depends on the whales that take out their money from the market. Whales who deserve the money they wish to withdraw will have higher impact on price than whales who don't deserve theirs. Not all money of thesame amount are equal,... 7 btc ≠ 7 btc. . 7btc earned honestly is higher.
Nevertheless, we shouldn't worry too much about whales as they have been pretty much tamed now. They will only have influence on the price if they are allowed.
Market manipulation is part of the market and people are much used to it. Over time people have learnt what is happening in the market and how to overcome such situations. In specific we used to see panic moments created by the whales and made use of the chance to make money. Now things were different as people knew what is happening and they just stay calm than reacting. |
