1541  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: A long term investor here, thinking about adding RoLLBit Token on: May 18, 2023, 10:44:03 AM
Investing in a utility token of a casino is not less than a gamble in itself since gambling platforms are not guaranteed to be around forever or too long, if things go wrong with the platform, it can shut down or lose players and that causes a huge plunge in the price of their token, so it's way too risky to he a holder of a token provided by a casino.

If you buy tokens to get benefits on the platform if they provide any then that's good, but I don't think one should buy a token from a casino platform and hold it for a long term just like Bitcoin and other famous cryptocurrencies.
1542  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Where is Satoshi? on: May 18, 2023, 09:23:40 AM
Why would we need Satoshi to fix the issues and problems. I thought bitcoin was meant to be decentralized. How can it be decentralized if people starts to see Satoshi as the "leader" of the network who will solve all the problems? I doubt Satoshi is every going to show himself. Yeah, he might help the network as a one of those many developers who helps improves the network. What I don't understand is why people are so obsessed with revealing his identity. Why do some people thing it would be a good thing?
There is no problem with bitcoin but people think that bitcoin can perform better if satoshi showed himself in the public because you know, it might attract more people and satoshi can do some improvements with bitcoin. Bitcoin will still be decentralized after that.

Satoshi showing up does not affect it. For the coin to be decentralized or centralized is already written in the code before it was created and I think it can't be revised anymore but it is still possible to change its consensus mechanism and switch to pos. That should lessen its decentralization. I still don't think that majority will agree with that, as I know it needs some voting before this happens.

Messi will definitely feel worried about a situation like this. even though this is actually an advantageous situation for him, because the opportunity to get paid that much, might not come twice. So I think Messi will definitely hesitate to make his choice now.

Because if you think about it in fact, it's true, he has won many titles from the world of football and it also makes sense that Messi is currently focusing on bigger finances. Because in five years, Messi will be 40 years old, and surely Messi wants to have a large enough pension fund for his old age with his family. So the possibility of Messi joining Al-Hilal seems quite big too.

And from PSG, until now there is still no definite clarity regarding his contract with Messi. As far as I know, PSG has also sent Messi a new contract. PSG even sent the contract when the Qatar World Cup ended. But messi seems reluctant to agree to the contract, the reason is because messi does not agree to a decrease in his salary.
PSG contract for Messi is already ended because his father it already announces he will leave this club after completing this contract and now about future things are not clear because Barcelona situation is not clear due to their huge debit and mostly peoples he will also follow Cristiano Ronaldo and join Al-Hilal which is standing with their one of the most luxury offer in soccer history but still final decision have to come from Messi and company.

Right now, as things are going around UEFA most chances no club will go ahead with Messi and his salary with just Barcelona were having some interest, but their finances are not allowing them which is also problem and with this all now Messi have to decide about his future in next few weeks with most chances he will choose Al-Hilal because this offer is too good to reject for any player even he is GOAT in soccer.

Is like many if these casinos are spending more than they can chew and for this reason they can decide to lower the rate of bonus they are giving out to there loyal customers which is not a bad idea. They may be trying hard to make sure that they fix some bugs in there platform to make sure they make more money from gamblers. They can decide to operate there casino any way they likes.
I don't understand how they can earn more money from gamblers if they fix the bugs on their platform. It is obviously true that they are cutting costs because they are definitely facing some economic crisis and aren't getting enough revenue to sustain their platform the way they could but these things are temporary for casino businesses as they earn pretty good most of the times.

And they obviously also can run their casino the way they like and can always change their terms and conditions and bonuses as per their will and budget without notifying their players though I feel they should let players know of any change.

loosing out on a game is a very bothersome act, some people tend to fall into depression afterwards because the gamble more than the can afford to loose probably out of greed.

Build a cycle of friends that can be loyal to you, go out with them 1ce in a while, every loose can be restored if you play your card well, no need falling into depression.
Going on an outing with friends can actually cheer one up pretty well if they get along well and if there are all like-minded people in the group, it is a natural stress-buster and always does the work. I used to do the same when I used to be around my friends and when I didn't have a family to take care of and was always free like a bird.

The point is, do have a little break when you start feeling stressed out, if you have friends around, that's icing on the cake. Go out and have some good time so that you mind gets refreshed from what has happened.
1546  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Some needed features of an online casino. on: May 17, 2023, 07:46:30 AM
I think ive heard some casinos that has features that was called responsible gambling on which they will monitor the activity of the gambler is he is already over betting or spending too much time on gambling on which it is really good but i forgot what casino is that and also the problem with this is that for sure only few casino will implement this because the profit that they will earning is reduced unless they really care on gamblers. Though if there are really regulations about it then it could be a good use to prevent addictions.
Not a casino nor the governments or authorities really care about an individual getting addicted and losing money in gambling because they get money from it, if they start stopping people themselves only because they are wagering too much money and also losing, they will simply be refusing to take profit and that is what a business is for, to get money.

So even if a casino implements such a feature, I'm sure it won't be continued for long since the filter will stop a lot of high rollers from gambling since I know that a lot of high rollers lose a lot of money in a day in a single casino platform.

Leverkusen must be able to fix whatever problems they are facing if Leverkusen want to continue to perform well in the second leg of the Europa League this season even though Leverkusen are already one goal behind on aggregate in the first leg. But Leverkusen still has the opportunity to make an aggregate that is more profitable for him, even though Leverkusen also knows that their opponent is a team that is not weak so that whatever they are facing before the second leg takes place, Leverkusen must really be able to fix it.
Leverkusen certainly has prepared everything for this decisive match and they were also seen in the domestic league match last week by installing several second-tier players to rest some of their core players. Even though they didn't win in last week's match, it seems that Leverkusen are indeed more targeted to qualify for the European league finals and of course they are ready to make a comeback at home later.

I'm quite sure what Xabi Alonso is thinking and surely the strategy he has will be able to help Leverkusen beat Roma. I actually don't have any predictions, but maybe Leverkusen will win with a score of 2-1 and will go to extra time.
Xabi Alonso strategy working for his team from early days of his joining because they were in relegation zone now fighting hard for the final of Europa Cup and sixth place in Bundesliga which are surely more them exceptional results and as they are targeting this game most chances things will be in their favor because currently AS Roma is also having issues, and they are without any win in domestic league which is the big problem for them.

Even we can say both teams in same boat with losing their hopes for the top four in their leagues and now having just one chance for the Champions League spot in next season mean both will give their best but who is winner it's never been easy with its toughest time with anybody game.

I absolutely agree with you. Haaland is a very effective weapon for Manchester City. I think he's also a football player who boosts Kevin De Bruyne's performance. It is necessary to look at Kevin De Bruyne's statistics from last seasons and his statistics this season. I think his performance has definitely increased and I attribute this increase in performance to Haaland. I also see Manchester City as the favorites in this match. However, we must not forget that Carlo Ancelotti is a very experienced manager and will develop strategies specific to this match. Also, Real Madrid have a different motivation in this cup, even in their worst times.
Haaland had an amazing performance in any game they play, as a player who joined this team the last year I saw not expecting to see a performance like this from Haaland, I think the most important thing Ancelotti is thinking about it how to make this player stop in the second leg because even the strong defenders are unable to do that and if you leave a player like Haaland unprotected in the field the while tam will be punished in the end.
Haaland could be unstoppable at Etihad Stadium because this is his home ground, and he has already done more than expectations in this first season KDB is also having good history of playing impressive in big games these two players could be key for the win of Manchester City at home after having impressive draw at Bernabéu in first leg. Manchester City is hot favorite for this game due to their performance in all competitions because in this season things looking amazing for them after few years hard work of Pepe is giving them good reward as they are hot favorite for having double EPL title and Champions League after many years hard work.

Ancelotti is legendary in this game as coach, but now his time is ended because after draw at home now it's never been easy to beat Citizens at their home where they settled many big clubs in this season for the win of this title.

Liverpool made seven consecutive wins and that is a great achievement,the pressure will be all on Manchester United now as Liverpool does not seem to stop anytime soon.I only regret betting on over 3.5 goals and Liverpool to win plus both teams to score as my bets which I lost all of them as I never expected Leicester not being able to score a goal while lately they have always scored goals in their recent encounters,all or almost all of them and Liverpool defense is not well known for not conceding any goals despite lately finishing some games on clean sheets.Anyway I am happy for Liverpool and I hope they continue with such performances.
Yeah, Liverpool is surely doing amazing stuff but for me, they are late for the top four because now they have just 2 matches left first against Aston Villa at home which could be not easy game and then last match of this season against Southampton on road mean if they have 6 points then tally could be 71 for Manchester United have three matches first against Bournemouth which most chances they will win and then hosting Chelsea and Fulham for the last two matches mean if they lost one and win two then still they could be ended with 72 and Newcastle United having three matches first against Brighton which is surely tricky specially after Brighton win against Arsenal then against Leicester City and last one against Chelsea.

With this all situation is not good for the Liverpool because they already lost their chances and now have to stay at fifth for the next season which is surely not good but accept this and enjoy because things are out of their hands.

Simple answer, because they are loyal players who have been in Bitvest for long time so high possibility that they still trust the site.
I checked the chatroom, the activity is good enough and I do not find any complaint there means that everything is still running fine.
Lightlord is not active here anymore but it does not mean that there is no support in the website (I have not tried how fast is the current support in responding players).
agree with you, bitvest has loyal players who are not easy to move to other gambling sites because they already feel comfortable playing at bitvest, even though I haven't been playing at bitvest for a long time but I have never had the slightest problem playing there
That is because bitvest is one of those old crypto casinos that are until now operating but many of their batch mates have already died. It is not easy because so many new casinos are coming out from time to time, offering something different.

This is why I respect this casino so much for staying strong in the industry also despite of the criticisms that they get from this forum, starting from the problems with their hot wallet to the delayed payments in signature campaign and from the inactivity of the op and his partner in crime. If we don't like bitvest then it would be better to just ignore this site and avoid making negative statements about them because the team itself is also silent and does not throw the same statement.

SRH is out of the playoff. It have got two more matches, one against RCB and the other one against Mumbai Indians. In the 12 matches played SRH have won 4 matches. Even if the remaining two matches were won the points will reach 12 and the run rate is on the negative side. The fourth positioned LSG is having 13 points. At any circumstances SRH won't be able to reach 13 points. This confirm that the entry for the playoff is closed for SRH. Maybe it can start its preparation for the upcoming season.
SRH were already out of the top four race as they lost their five matches from firs seven mean they were not in good touch from the start of this season even they have few exciting T20i players but still things were not in their favour for this season which hurt their fans as well now they need to think about their future with remaining two matches are just formality as they have no positive sign for having anything good from here.

In last game against GT they have done good bowling but still Gill and Sudharsan give them massive punishment for the having target like 189 then GT bowlers Mohammad Shami and Mohit Sharma done the remaining work of destruction of SRH in this match just Klaasen were alone who stand for some time and then give up.
1552  Economy / Gambling / Re: Without money, does it still qualify as gambling? on: May 15, 2023, 08:10:32 PM
We must return this to the notion of gambling which involves betting in a game. So in general if a game is without betting then it cannot be said to be gambling in my opinion, because it goes back to the basic understanding of gambling itself. And I agree that gambling carries risks, and if there is nothing at stake then what risks will we get, because we don't bet anything and will not lose anything from that game.
However, if it is based on personal opinion, of course there will always be different opinions from one to another.
Didn't gambling start back then when money was not created yet and other things were paid when a gambler lost? Because I remembered when I was young, I was still in elementary school, when I was playing with my friends in the text card battle of marvels super heroes, when I won, I got a card instead of winning and when I accumulated a lot of cards, I sell cards to my opponents or teammates to make money for a small coin.
Yep, gambling is very old from its origin, initially, people used to bet assets or commodities or whatever they had since there were no currencies in those times, and gambling has been evolving ever since that, and today, we have got casinos available right at our fingertips in our mobile phones or laptops and we don't even need to go out to gamble anymore.

Some people who gamble just for fun among friends or cousins or relatives still use things as a wager for bets when they are making bets against each other on a certain match or something, and it is pretty fun.

They obviously lack knowledge and research abilities, and talking sense to such people is near impossible since no matter how much you chant about something, they will still do what they want at the end and all that you say and do to make them understand a point is simply a waste of your own time and efforts, so it's better to leave such people alone and let them experience it themselves.

When Bitcoin was at $500 per unit, people used to think and say the same thing that they are late and they won't make any gains anymore, the same was the case when it reached $3k and then $10k, so there will basically always be such people out there, let them be.
1554  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you stay updated on: May 15, 2023, 06:06:51 PM
Gathering information from reliable sources is crucial in developing a better understanding for any discipline in fact. It's always important to be cautious of false information or biased opinions so for example reading in forums like Bitcointalk or even discussion boards on gambling can also be helpful in gaining insights from other people's experiences and perspectives.
Bitcointallk doesn't have enough information on gambling or the sport the op was referring to. What is been discussed mainly here is soccer and the discussion aren't what can be used to win bets instead just opinions of the sport and how the matches might end.

There isn't much experience been shared here so I won't depend on the forum to bet, if you want to learn then you have to make use of the resources that are outside the forum like on youtube. YouTube videos are free so you won't be buying any course.

Also the experience been shared here can't be proven therefore we shouldn't believe everything we read. For UFC, boxing or any sport that involves fighting, get the information direct from the right sources like podcast on YouTube etc.
Well, the forum obviously doesn't have much detail about any specific sport apart from the speculations and results from previous matches that might be posted in a thread if created for that particular sport, but it is definitely the best place to find out opinions and perspectives of others regarding a specific match or even a sport, etc.

So what one should do is to gather information from multiple sources and then alter that information to take out the main points and then use those points to maybe choose a side which should be selected for a bet.
1555  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: May 15, 2023, 05:04:33 PM
I don't believe Jude Bellingham actually said that. I like his style and respect his skills, but if he were transferred to Manchester City today, it wouldn't be easy for him to get a chance in the starting eleven. So, Manchester City have better midfielders than him. I don't believe Bellingham would say anything like that. First of all, this is not a professional approach. Even if he does not prefer Manchester City today, the conditions may change tomorrow and he may have to choose Manchester City.
There is no doubt change is always on for players, but this was already settled Jude Bellingham is going to Real Madrid with his desire for this club, and they were in link because in last season we have three clubs which was hot favorite for this young kid but Liverpool and Bayern Munich stop their chase after understanding bounds between Real Madrid and Jude Bellingham so if he rejects Manchester City then surely they need to be cool instead of reacting with anger.

I agreed about his this statement because Manchester City is surely a plastic club which is having this spot just because of huge funds from oil rich owner and have nothing ability like Real Madrid which is dream of any young soccer player.

The UEFA Europa League is supposed to be Sevilla's tournament. The Spanish team had won so many Europa League trophies in the last 20 years, that I don't remember the exact number. However, the success in previous years doesn't guarantee anything for Sevilla.
Juventus is notorious for losing finals in the European tournaments. I'm sure that they are capable of eliminating Sevilla, but I'm not sure about them winning the Europa League.
Roma is also a big favorite for me. Mourinho knows how to win such tournaments. I'm not a big expert in German football, so I don't know the current level of Leverkusen. They seem like a decent team, but they lack experience in such stages of the European tournaments. 
We have more than 10 teams in UEFA those were able to win this prestigious cup in history with Sevilla were won six time, and they also have hat-trick as well with winning from 2013 to 2015 and last time they won this title in 2019 even these statics are not going to help them for winning their match against Juventus but still their performance in this event is amazing and as usual in this season they have done impressive job even badly struggling in La Liga and early round matches, but now they are having amazing time with going to host Juventus for the second leg semifinal at home.

UEFA is full of unpredictable results and shocking upsets, so we can't predict who is going to win this time but as things going mostly feeling Sevilla can go through for their seventh title.

I don't see any possibility AC Milan will win with 2 goals difference behind Inter Milan because AC Milan recently lose 0-2 against Spezia in Serie A, Spezia is currently at 18th position which is in regelation zone. Spezia haven't win in the last 8 matches except AC Milan, it show how bad AC Milan is.

However the odds for Inter Milan to win is quite high for @2.05 in the second leg, this is really a worthy bet.
With their current performance, it will indeed look very difficult for Milan, regardless of whether their current condition is not safe. Moreover, seeing them this week who also had to lose to Spezia in the domestic competition, it was indeed very difficult for Milan, especially Inter, who were in good condition.

It looks like they have to stop in the semi-finals but things like that are still very good for them if you look at it from before this is the best achievement for Milan in the Champions League in several seasons that they always do.
[/quote]
Currently, performance level and quality of the both teams are clearly favouring Inter for the qualification into final AC Milan is having terrible time with now losing against Spezia is going to be more trouble for their next game against Inter which is having five games winning streak and concede just three goals into last five games so things completely favouring Inter but as we all know miracles can also happen in soccer and Champions League is game of upsets and unpredictable results with this all Milan can go for the tough clash as well.

With still all four teams are into game and nothing is sure, can Milan create problems for the Inter into second leg match, or we are going to have one-sided affair with Inter will be into final now we have just few days left for the prominent reply.

In addy, after gambling to some extent with some reasonable number of wins, do not be greedy. Do not feel you are yet to win more because in the cause of such taught, you might get drawn in the pool of your own taught and likely resulting to you loose out woefully. To some extent after recorded wins take a break from gambling.
It's easy to say this when we are not in the actual moment but when we are there already we can't understand on why it seems hard to stop and click that withdraw button. There is always that strong force that makes us to bet one and two more times till it leads us to start another session again because our money have already declined.

We are trying our best to recover to what we have earlier but it seems impossible anymore to do. The losses will just continue till we get busted. I hate it when this happens but it just happens naturally in me lol, I think the best solution is to just don't gamble at all. Now I am diverting my self to video games.

Hell yeah I lost the others! Luckily I just put small amount to those categories lol. It was Vini, Valverde, and Gündoğan to score. Don't ask me why these names Embarrassed
May I though? Cheesy I mean I get Vini, he scores a lot, but valverde and gundogan? Lol, I mean yeah anything could happen in sports and we could have seen them score as well, but why not someone like benzema or haaland? As we all know they are pretty high scoring people with many goals. I could understand something like vini+benzema+haaland or vini+de bruyne+haaland if you thought city would win, those are high scoring names that could do it, but gundogan? valverde? Sure they score too but not a lot Cheesy.

In any case, I had a simple bet, City to win the game, that's it and I ended up with a loss as well and it was a decent chunk of money so I am sad that I lost it but that happens when you are betting, I will do it again for the second game and I hope it gets better results.
@dezoel in an important match like these Haaland would be marked heavily hence Pep would have prepped his midfielders to step up and thus one should have selected De Bryune to score because he really steps up in matches like these. Also for the return leg I would suggest to go for Benzema and De Bryune because I’m really sure that these two will score because of their experience of performing well in such big matches.
Every good player gets marked tightly in big games, Mbappe should never score on any semi finals or finals games for UCL then? Not like they are reaching there but you get my point. Or Ronaldo and Messi should have never scored? They are as big as it gets and yet they were.

This means that we are at a point where Haaland has to prove to the world that he is way too good for all these discussions and should have done better and scored. By second game is definitely Benzema and Haaland, he has to score, not saying he will, I would not know if he will or not ,nobody will, not even he knows if he will or not, but I think he should. That will allow him to be considered a good player, otherwise he would be labeled "disappears on big games" for a while longer.

I don't agree with you, a few days ago we noticed Bitcoin reaching 30k. Now maybe the price has dropped to 27k but expect the price to go up to $40k.Everyone is expecting BTC to pump massively and they have predicted that people are starting to feel it from this year. As you say for sure that the market will not pump, your prediction may not be correct.The Bitcoin market is always uncertain, but looking at some portfolios in the Bitcoin market we can expect that we will reach a bull market this year.You will understand if you analyze properly
People are mostly bullish about the long term, the short-term outcome doesn't seem too promising as we can see the market is in decline mode at the moment. $22k looks like a more reasonable target right now than $35k since it is in a downtrend and there is no strong support for it to stop it and make it go up again that soon.

Bitcoin or the market wouldn't pump only because people are predicting it will pump, it needs buying pressure and we are not getting that at the moment, maybe because everyone wants it to drop more so that they can buy cheaper.
