i got this one  Grin


Haha, this is what I call amazing, some persons can really be good at guessing, and I think you must be one of such persons,
Congratulations mate, unfortunately you just bet a dollar to it, had it been you used atleast $50 to $100 on this bet, you would have won a really good amount of money.
But anyways, turning $1 to $14 is still good win, all thanks to mbappe who made this win possible for you, the two goals he scored in the 80 and 81st minutes of the match is what turned this ticket to green 😂

scoring goals in the 80th and 81st minutes were really incredible! i have no words to say but a fantastic performance of mbappe! however, it was time for messi to hold this world cup trophy. no worries, mbappe is still young to have breaking world records in this sports. topbitcoin's bet was what you call luck. for sure, he has some kind of regrets of not putting more money on this bet.  Tongue
On these kind of bets people never put big money. It is like a random pick trying our luck. Here the user is lucky to make a big win if he have placed a high bet value. Whether it is Casino or sports betting, it is fun filled when we enjoy and spend. The match turned at the last ten minutes and odds varied drastically. So, it is something lucky to enjoy the bet as well as watch the best final match.
1302  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Brazil Fan Token Down 60% After Losing to Croatia on: December 19, 2022, 11:06:39 PM
If the fan token doesn't have any benefit, the token will certainly decrease if something happens to the team or the current uncertain market conditions. Those who invest in fan tokens may support their team at certain events so they buy their fan tokens. But it's not easy to compete with projects with better plans than fan tokens, especially if it's only aimed at supporting teams from their country. I'm afraid the end goal of this fan token is just about pump and dump. Just my 2 cents.
These are mere tokens that doesn't have any value. Just the variation is experienced out of the market movements happening connected to the football matches of Brazil. Only the football fans find it good and enjoy to some extent while watching Brazil matches. The support from Brazil federation to have a fan token is really appreciable.

We're gonna experience a massive market crash and what we have come across is the beginning for the same. We can see a big list of negative FUD happening around the market. This will make some panic waves around the common investors and some could leave the market. The same will be taken advantage by the Whales who are hard believers of the market than anyone else.
1304  Economy / Economics / Re: Only one way to save people now on: December 18, 2022, 11:30:11 PM
Cryptocurrencies are a great solution to make things simple and easy, we never thought that cryptocurrencies are growing fast like they are today but unfortunately many are used greedily to the point where many people cry like what happened with FTX.
true, crypto is simple and easy but what we have to be aware of is that crypto also has a high risk. as you said, for example, the incident that happened to FTX was an event that was beyond the expectations of many people and this kind of incident is one of the risks of crypto. and don't forget LUNA  Grin
So if you're not careful crypto won't be a solution but a problem.

How is crypto simple and easy? We have had a hard time learning it before and also trying to gain profit from it. The FTX incident was also hard to predict as we couldn't see any suspicious activity. The hardest thing in crypto is earning from it. When you say easy, it is about buying and selling it (not about getting profit) since it is easy to buy and sell as long as you have money, but gaining profit on it is another term. In the cryptocurrency world, many scams are happening, so we should be cautious.
The process involved is easy, but to make profit out of it is really hard thing. With everything there is risk and cryptocurrency have high risk than any other form of investment. One who have understood better will make the moves accordingly as well as hold when required without getting into emotions. Same time fearing to scams and hackers will keep us out of taking risk. To me, the risk we take with the right learning will give good return someday.

Everyone were discussing about the best done by Mbappe and Messi. They played well throughout the match and created a situation that ended with penalty shootout. To me it is Emiliano Martínez, the goal keeper of Argentina is the true hero. He saved a penalty and increased the pressure on France. Following the same France player missed the penalty. So, his contribution need to be remembered and he has been awarded with the golden glove.
1306  Economy / Gambling / Re: Stake.com - The Leading Crypto Casino - 🦉 Drake, UFC, Everton Main Partner ⚽ 🥊 on: December 18, 2022, 11:22:04 PM
I saw Drake placed a million dollar bet on Argentina and I am not sure if stake sponsors those bets or not but the curse has been broken lol
I think you miss understanding.

He betting on "Argentina" but still lose, because the bets only counted for 90 mins (First & Second Half) game. The result of this bets is "Draw", Argentina is win he broke the cursed but still losing the bet ~LOL.

Cursed still on him, because not win money ~XD
Before the start of the match, the odds were very close between the teams as well as for draw. Argentina winning @2.70, France winning @2.85 and draw @3.15 which is really close. Soon after the goal from Messi the odds could've changed drastically till the 80th minute. As mentioned the bet is a loss for Drake as the 90 minutes is counted.
1307  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Go-to casino on: December 18, 2022, 11:17:37 PM
Hi guys, just interested what are your casino's of choice? Or just general online sites?
And what are your go-to games?
Stake.com is the common choice of many gamblers here. Whether you're new or not, it's a good place to start your gambling journey.
And for the games, they've got a lot and you can try everything you want there. If you're a fan of dice game, they have their sister company primedice as your choice.
Majority have got Stake in the list. This is based on the good service they've been providing through the years. For me it is Stake followed by Duelbits and Betcoin. My choice is based on the smooth experience without lag on low internet connectivity, quick support, and ease of withdrawal even when we're on winning streak.

Hahaha, it's just speculation.

I don't really remember for last "Christmas" event. However I have some experience stake sending 2 monthly bonus in the same month because there has some event. Like we all-know at this month they send on 1st Days.

Just speculation from me, don't hope to much.
Maybe they will announce second monthly coupon during Drake's stream today. Less than 8 days left still no Christmas raffle or million $ race announcement which been in promos last years.

Never before has Stake.com sent monthly coupons 2 times a month except monthly coupons + Post monthly and we will wait 45 days for the next monthly coupon
I hear Stake will spend $50 Million during this December including $2 Million giveaway on Drake's stream and almost $200k every day in drops
If calculated in total it has not touched 1/2 of the $ 50 Million they promised meaning there will be another big event waiting for us.
The coupon sent by Drake is equivalent to a monthly bonus coupon, so I count it as half a monthly coupon.
They still have more promotions, I except big raffle towards end of current promotions.
Most of the promotions and drops availed during this season is being enjoyed by the active gamblers whereas the weekly and monthly is the one that is being enjoyed by the gamblers who don't wager much. The big raffle towards the end is the much expected one for now, every $1000 wagered counting a ticket will give big winning opportunity to the high rollers and not the regular ones who gamble with small bets.
1309  Economy / Gambling / Re: Duelbits.com | Casino & Sportsbook | VIP | Instant withdrawals! on: December 17, 2022, 10:59:47 PM
I mostly play plinko and chase big multipliers, plinko can wager really nicely but prepare balance for long loss streaks before hitting 1000x. The average ratio per 1000x plinko ball is 1 in 32k nonce approximately.

Insane, this is probably the first time that someone told me that they wagered on plinko for tickets. I'd rather go for dice though because its way faster although that the max multiplier is capped to 9900 but its close enough to 10k in plinko. Anyway gratz on getting over 1k tickets, thats over 100k wagered so high chances on actually getting something in return from the draw
Everyone will be waiting for the Christmas draw. As said Dice is far better when we are with the plans of increasing the number of wagering tickets. Getting over 1000 tickets is really hard and increase the chance of winning in the draw. However one needs to be lucky to win, because I've come across raffle draw in which users with less than 10 tickets winning the jackpot and the users with more than 10k tickets without a prize.
1310  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why Small Scale Businesses should accept Cryptocurrencies as a medium of payment on: December 17, 2022, 10:53:31 PM
What would be your opinion about this, OP?

It's easy to say this and that but once there's a regulation it would hinder them from acquiring cryptocurrency. There are places in the world that doesn't like the existence of crypto currency especially the Bitcoin where no single entity controls it.

If the bigger business firm would have a problem accepting/using cryptocurrency/Bitcoin, then what makes you think the small scale businesses won't have a problem either?

I think the advantage of small-scale businesses is its regulation with the laws. Given that they are only "small-scale," the some government institutions somehow waives the right for them to comply with the existing licenses as a form of support and help. A good example is here in the Philippines, street vendors are not required to file taxes as a form of privilege to the needy.

I hope the government somehow adopts the same concept with cryptocurrency when it comes to regulation. The fact that there is that potential of cryptocurrency becoming an alternative currency for their services/products, the hope still remains that it will soon be accepted as a whole.
Adoption from the small scale businesses will help with the regulation of bitcoin and it's usage around. Same time this serves to be the real growth than some corporate making its entry into cryptocurrency adoption or acceptance of cryptocurrency into business.

Usage and adoption from the low bottom leads to the real growth and progress. In that way the layman's acceptance and understanding about cryptocurrency matters a lot. This is being experienced all around the world with more Street vendors accepting cryptocurrency payments amidst the regulation and legal status of the country on cryptocurrency usage.
1311  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How would the world be if Bitcoin wasn't created on: December 17, 2022, 10:49:11 PM
If the world hasn't seen the existence of bitcoin, there won't be much of difference. The world would've been the same as the past. Most of the users who have shifted towards cryptocurrency could've been making use of the traditional banking and were never making any complaint. The existence of blockchain and bitcoin serving as the alternate have made people realise how bad is the financial system. The transition have begun and to experience the impact around the world it takes more time and it is too early to be judgemental.
1312  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: We No Longer Pay People Directly on: December 17, 2022, 10:45:06 PM
What OP have come to say isn't clear. I understood that the involvement of third party have taken most of the places other than tipping. In the past people used to make direct transaction with fiat and now everything is done through a third party payment application. Only for tipping purpose fiat is used. In reality tipping too happening through scan and pay. So, what he mentioned as Corporate is taking control of everyone's fund. This will slowly change when people slowly move towards bitcoin.
1313  Other / Archival / Re: 2022 was the second worst year for Bitcoin on: December 16, 2022, 11:44:49 PM
Rather than stating it to be the worst year for bitcoin, why don't we take it as one of the best year for investing. I'm not sure, but the whales take it in the right way for investment whereas you and me fear of the market movements and wait for the bullish move to invest. In the past we've experienced the better days after the worst, so this time too we'll experience good. All that need to done, accumulate as much possible and hold what is available.
1314  Economy / Economics / Re: American EVs reduced gasoline consumption by just 0.54% in 2021 on: December 16, 2022, 11:42:38 PM
The main thing is that the process of switching to electric cars and increasing their power and efficiency has begun. After some time, when the quantity turns into quality, the states will first tighten the requirements for gasoline and diesel cars, and then completely ban their production and operation.
The fight against global climate change will take precedence over the corrupt interests of the gasoline corporations that have dictated their terms in this market for more than a century. This is a matter of human survival.
This is a slow process and the same can't be achieved in a short time period. The switching process is happening all around the world. Another important reason behind the switching is the increased price. People who are able to afford an EV have decreased. In a third world country the price of EV is something high as that of a luxury car which the common man who want a car never think about. When the price starts decreasing the usage will increase.
1315  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is the smart choice not the entire crypto industry on: December 16, 2022, 11:38:04 PM
(....)
So in conclusion: Bitcoin is the blanket cover for what cryptcucrency and digital currency stand for and only those that hold Bitcoin should be seen as the smart people, not those holding and gambling with shitcoins.
Exactly. People who are a fan of altcoins in their early days after they were introduced to cryptocurrency will realize how Bitcoin really matter in the cryptocurrency market.
That's why people saying if you will buy some altcoins, make sure you got some Bitcoin from your bag or Bitcoin is the largest percentage of your portfolio.
Also, diversifying your investments is good but make sure that you are filling your portfolio with high potential coins in the market. And as much as possible, accumulate more bitcoin than top altcoins. Because in the end, some top altcoins do not guarantee huge price increase, some even fall on the process. But bitcoin will always  skyrocket especially when there are signs for the market to become bullish again.
Bitcoin is always the best for its proven record. The competence from the altcoins keep the market of bitcoin high against the altcoins. Based on this it is good to have our funds diversified than investing completely on bitcoin. At any instance bitcoin won't leave you at loss, but the same assurance can't be expected with altcoins which is the riskier part though some of the altcoins have provided with high roi on the investment than bitcoin.
1316  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Education programs should cover Bitcoin and Blockchain technology. on: December 16, 2022, 11:34:57 PM
It's easier said than done because changing of a school curriculum requires extra resources and training of the teachers themselves to grasp this new technology, but of course we can't just sit and do nothing.. It needs to start from somewhere and this could be possible with the next crop of teachers.
Agreed, the curriculum change isn't an easy thing. While making a curriculum more things were taken into consideration. The prime thing is the understanding, based on the age group the curriculum is designed. Initially the techy itself doesn't have much awareness about bitcoin. It is time to educate the teachers and only through them it is possible to reach the students in a much better way.
1317  Economy / Speculation / Re: Stop the panic, I doubt we will see 14k or less Bitcoin on: December 15, 2022, 11:37:01 PM
We must not convince people that investing here can bring the desired profit because the nature of the market is very volatile.
It's not supposed to convince everyone on every investment, but if someone asks about a good investment in crypto. I don't think it would be wrong if we try to recommend it for him according to the experiences we have seen or felt in the past. Because it can at least be a basic knowledge for him for the scope of investment before he makes a final decision on himself by understanding some of the risks.
Agreed, rather than convincing it is good to give suggestions and let them learn the market. Our suggestion could help them understand the working process of the market than just investing with the thought of being rich overnight. The market hadn't experiencing panic as the past, because people are well aware of the market and taking proper decisions than getting into panic selling which makes the whales take advantage.
1318  Economy / Economics / Re: Saving one third what you earn monthly is not that hard, isn't it ? on: December 15, 2022, 11:33:07 PM
Unlike the living location it is possible to save one third of the earning. All that required is the mind to limit ourselves in all activities. In specific going with the unwanted needs should be stopped. We can't expect the same every month, but most of the month this can be done. Man with a proper schedule and running on the right schedule along with his budget will easily attain it.
1319  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin Destroy Crap Altcoins? on: December 15, 2022, 11:29:19 PM
Bitcoin doesn't have anything to do with the crap altcoins. It is the people, who go in queue to get scammed looking for big profit. Initially people need to understand the reality of the market and how the altcoins are making progress. There are altcoins that serve good in the market as well as serve as a competent to push the growth of the entire market. Such altcoins can be considered and are required ones in the market.
1320  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FIFA 2022 world cup on: December 13, 2022, 10:08:43 PM
Never mind, we all have to admit that Argentina is a better team than Croatia after watching this game. Maybe some pre-match hesitation is understandable as Croatia had the luck and success to reach the semi-finals, but in the end Argentina showed their quality.

I think that the Croatian team that played against the Argentine team today had something missing in them. I do not know if they played out of fear or they came with a defeatist mindset because what I watched from the Croatian team play was beyond pathetic. Obviously the Argentine side we're better and stronger . Now they are left to compete for the third-place position in the tournament they have done so well so far and I hope they leave with something.
In the first half they tried to play with pressure and always took the initiative to attack and this backfired for them.
Argentina was good at taking advantage of this condition, they defended and immediately counterattacked quickly which made the Croatian players a little troubled there and that was proven when they had to break in the penalty box.
Apart from anything congrats to Argentina now who are in the final. This could be a good farewell gift for Messi at the end of the world cup that he takes part in if he can win in the final later.
Croatia from the beginning had the attacking plan and the same didn't work as Argentina took the defending position and doesn't show agression. They did it well and the plan didn't work with Croatia. Maybe if Croatia have managed to make a goal at the first half the match would've taken another direction.
