We know they do that that because they are required to have auditing from third party auditors by law. It's happening frequently and constantly because one test doesn't cut it.
And i wonder what kind of proof is OP looking for. Pure data about testing or what? I am sure most people wouldn't even make sense any data analysis of an auditor. But anyone can probably ask if those auditors have time to answer questions, or about their methods.


Imagine risking a billion dollar industry by using fake audits. There's no reasonable explanation for that, especially when the biggest asset of any casino is trustworthiness and transparency.
Mathematical proof of slight house edge is the only thing they need to profit.

Israel didn't have backup, they just changed the name and the lyrics. Now, according to the rules, it's not political anymore and they can use it. That is if the band doesn't pull any stunts on the middle of the act and won't get disqualifed after all. But i doubt band would do that. There's huge money involved if they would do well.

But i highly doubt they will do well. And i am seriously wondering why they have such high odds, even though they have done well in the past, many people are protesting it, and while you can't downvote them, i am guessing points will show in jury's decision as well with lack of voters from other countries.

If there would be one country that would be a direct protest vote against israel, i would bet on that. If it was possible, i would also bet on the possibility that they are getting booed live, i would actually bet lot's of my money on that. Eurovision brands itself as apolitical, but that doesn't mean people interacting with it will.

I don't get why oil analogy would even make sense. Oil isn't really a store of value, it's a source of power. While Bitcoin is a store of value and needs power to be mined. Digital gold is better for comparison.
Also i don't see any evidence that Trump would like bitcoin or endorse bitcoin. If anything he will launch a maga crypto funding platform or something as crappy, with his own blockchain because it's need to be about him. And bitcoin isn't about him.

And about trump: Reason people hoard more bitcoin and gold when there's a change he might be president, is because there's less trust for usd and stability of US government. You know, reason why bitcoin was created in a first place, public's way to transfer wealth without working government. Fiat system might fall, and if it falls, Trump era would be my bet for that one. It's needed when government can't be trusted.

Only resposible answer anyone could give you is, yes, if you have money to pay your debt, maybe you should do that.
I might not do that though, but i am someone who is risking a lot by not doing that. Also it depends if i had still some in crypto or if i had to cash out everything to pay that debt.
Because if that's just part of your investments, it's a no brainer that you should pay it, i would too.

Also you don't mention if that's only way you can pay your credit card debts, can you sell something else to pay it, or can you save money to pay it? Because i have a feeling that ETH is going way higher later on, so i might leave some eth for that. So ask yourself would it be horrible, if it did go $20k and you didn't hold any eth at the moment? Some of us can watch from sidelines easily without holding crypto and watch it moon. But it can be devastating for some people, so i can't ever recommend selling everything. Always leave at least a small moonbag

I don't know where you even got the idea they ever would be happy for you in the first place? Especially if you get rich by winning? This is why people advice you to not ever tell anyone if you won the lottery, or what ever you won. And biggest reason for not telling is: No one needs to know. You might want to tell people, but ask yourself why you even want that.

People will envy you, that's right. One proof of that is this myth that keeps on living, that most lottery winners end up being broke and miserable in the end. There are no stats that would back this up, and while some people might mess their lives by drinking etc, not everyone obviously will do that. Those negative stories keep living though, because people love to read about them. They are kind on confirmation bias, as majority wants lottery winners to suffer, they see those stories as comforting because they aren't ever goingt to win.

But people around you can be very envious, not everyone but enough of them are a good reason not to tell around about your money. Especially when they think you didn't "earn" the money, but only were lucky. You see this envy with people's attitude towards crypto rich as well. Actually even more with those.

Some of your friends will avoid you. Some because of envy, some because they are extra careful and don't want you think that they are only with you because of money. For some reason people don't seem to do that when you have earned your money slowly with work. At least none of the rich that i know (i know few people that got rich and one of them quickly with cryptos).

And i don't know what common topics and common interests are you talking about, but i never lost them with my friends. All being rich brought to them was financial security and peace of mind because they don't need to live from hand to mouth anymore. And few other obvious perks as well.

1. I don't know what you mean by bet stores as we don't have those, almost every store is a bet store here. But i think we have around 50/50 ratio on women and men gambling. In fact in physical slot machines they are majority and i know personally couple older women who play way more then i do online.
2. I feel sorry for them as addiction is a real problem. Big part of the winnings in my country are directed to help gambling victims. Which some people in here see hypocritical, but i rather see them do that then not. Other way would be just ban gambling and i don't think it's ever going to happen in here. Those people, who want to do that wouldn't get voted in the government-
3. It doesn't feel good to lose, but it's part of the fun not to win all the time.
4. I am using winnings for either investing or living and buying something cool for my kids and my girlfriend
5. I am NOT lending anyone money for gambling, and i prefer people wouldn't lend me money for that if i would ask. That's really horrible idea, both lending and asking. Maybe my friends are smart enough so they haven't even asked.
6. I am watching my budget closely and never go over it. It's my rule nr 1 in gambling. Because i know my gambling addiction kicks in if i ever cross it. That's just how addiction works. It needs absolute rules to keep in check. For some people it could mean never gambling ever, and i totally understand why. Everyone has their own ways to not to get in trouble.
7. I have thought about this. I might quit for a while and have a vacation. At least i wouldn't be gambling anything that takes a lot of my time. As time is money and that's what i am buying with my money.

Why? Because there's a higher growth potential with smaller marketcaps and smaller marketcaps tend to be more volatile, so higher gains can be achieved in shorter time frame. And it's not like all altcoins are the same.

It's like asking "Why are you buying these other stocks? Why aren't you buying only microsoft stocks when it has the highest marketcap?" Maybe people see better future or short time future with other coins.

Some of the young people are only in this for meme value, buying meme coins because why not? Bitcoin was the outsider fringe money against the suits for a long time. Now when suits are buying it, it's the meme tokens that are money against the suit. Obviously suits don't want it or buy it, because they think it's dumb and that's the point. They also thought bitcoin was stupid and a scam at some point. Some still do.

And don't pretend bitcoin doesn't have any risk. Richer you got with it, higher risk you took. And early in bitcoin, risk was insanely high. Why people didn't buy microsoft or apple then? Why they risked it and bought btc?

I totally agree it's worrying that people are giving away of their consumer rights, by accepting many of these ToS:es. But i can't find any reason why any casino would agreeing on doing anything like this.

Because building that kind of list of reasons would need to be bullet proof, and wording would have to be very careful, so that it leaves to space for interpretation. And if someone found a loophole from that list of reasons (that would be probably long as bible), are we saying that casino couldn't freeze the account and that user could just lawfully keep abusing the casino until they accept the new rules?

Even laws gets fixed all the time because people keep finding new loopholes, so it would definitely happen with a list that promises to cover every specific reason for freezing an account.
So as that list would keep constantly changing to fix and prevent exploits, we would need to keep researching it every day what's been updated and accept that.

I am not trying to be difficult here, i am just thnking this from the point of a casino lawyer. Maybe i am overthinking this but i am sure there must be some other way to deal with this.

That special military "operation" was just a matter of time. That's why we (Finland) joined. They have also violated our airspace with freaking fighter jets when ever they had to show a power move. Because they knew we wouldn't respond too harshly as we wouldn't like to rock the boat. They have used paid agitators and russian troll factory on our finnish forums and but they are pretty easy to spot, as finnish is one of the hardest language to master, and non-Finn pretending to be native Finns make make errors constantly by using translators and pushing Kremilin's propaganda. It sticks out.

Before we joined, Russia stated that it would mean serious militaristic and political consequences against Finland. But before it our airspace was constantly violated by Russian Jets as a power move as they knew we wouldn't want to rock the boat by responding too harshly. And here's Dmitry Medvedev mentioning finland and threating with nuclear missiles because of nato.

We follow closely to Russian media and are aware of their blatant lies and how they have been now building an image of Finland as an enemy. They have even changed their school textbooks to rewrite Russian history that fits to that. They have also lately been removing Finnish soldier's graves in and memorial plaques Russia.

And needles to say we don't have any diplomatic relations with them as Russia has declared Finland as unfriendly country.

So is anyone going to vote those non-favourites? I just reclaimed my JUN airdrop, so i am cashing that and wagering it for Finland.
Finland had 67x multiplier in bc.game (biggest one i've seen), so i wanted to try there. But since i didn't recall if i had registered yet, i tried to search all my emails from "bd.game", and nothing came up.

So i made an account there, and while i looked around before depositing, i spinned that flashy wheel with those free JB tokens as a bet. There came a popup screen saying that i wasn't eligible for the prize as someone has already registered an account from my ip or my computer. Now i am afraid to use that site anymore, because it will probably look like double accounting on purpose.

Stake had just 66x multiplier, so that's gonna do fine. But i would like to see odds for other crypto casinos for comparison and i didn't find eurovision from others you listed, even with google. Maybe you can give direct links?

Seems like such a stupid idea it could be a winner, except with your attitude you aren't going anywhere. If you just want attention for free and without risk, this isn't happening.

If you need a permission from random people before you do what you genuinely think could be fun, you are missing the point. People win in this space because they take risks. This isn't a tv and there are no test audiences to pander.

Don't be afraid to flop, because that's most likely what's going to happen anyway. It doesn't matter what people say in here. It will probably flop no matter how many of them are in board, or how many say that they are not. Only way to guarantee to lose is not to try.

Imagine wanting to do stand-up comedy, but refusing to go on the stage before everyone is cheering. This is what your post looks like to me. Just do it, don't ask permission or acceptance. The whole point of this token creation is that you don't need to.

Hydranet is interesting, i have to admit, and with $10M marketcap it seems cheap as hell.

But competition for uniswap? Let's be realistic. You can't even start to compare fees when Hydranet has fraction of the volume of rune or uniswap, that seems like you are misleading newbs purposely.

And please tell me this is actually open source but i can't just find the code, because downloading closed source software for something this is just stupid.

And while $10M marketcap means there are lots of space to grow, it needs more then smoke and mirrors to rise and compete with big boys. And with all those cross-chain bridge attacks and stolen money last year, this or any other cross-chain tech doesn't seem like sure bet to me. It's going to be an important development sector, but i rather keep using CEXes and traditional DEXes for the time being.

it's refreshing when people are investing into most dangerous/volatile markets out there and are only after 5x. But i reckon you can make 5x with multiple altcoins between top 10-50 coins in coinmarketcap. Even thought many of them have already done almost that from last year.

But as i've seen some DOT talking points recently, and people seem like they want desperately push it up, and while i don't like the fact it pumps as well, it most likely will. We are still quite early and 5x is definitely a possibility. And my hats of to you for not being more greedy than that. I was planning to do 10000x with shitcoins myself. At least one of us will meet their exit target.

I guess comparing something to sol potential keeps things in perspective, but i see it as a bad idea. People get delusional when they wait for that kind of mooning to happen just with one coin.

Wouldn't that depend on what are you specialist of? Because i know one guy who has specialized himself so far on his studies, and has so many published papers on it, that he is pretty much irreplaceable, as no one in his field knows as much experience of the subject. And basically he can determine his own salary now (to some point of course).

Luckily he picked something that isn't going away, as for example i have specific and deep knowledge and experience about something that don't exist anymore. I won't go to details in case of doxxing, but i had to re-educate myself and start from the scratch.

Jack of all trades might help you to some extent in your life, as it's handy to know how to do things and not hire professionals for every job, but when you know little bit about lots of things, you aren't really irreplaceable in any field. In hindsight, i would rather combine 2-3 things and get deep understanding in them. Being able to understand problems in one field and developing skills to fix them in another is a golden combination. Like neurobiology, electronics and coding or Biology, chemistry, and mathematics. Or chemistry and psychology.

It really depends what you aim to do and some of these combinations are obviously better then others. And some of those might offer unforeseen or even unethical but lucrative opportunities, like weapon design, or some specific research work.

I think i know what you mean, but i don't agree with this. Especially when wording of this advice is so vague.

Why couldn't i keep playing? Why i am going to lose that when i have a change to win, which is the whole point of casinos. I know that one should be able to exit while they are still in profit, but what's the "little" in this scenario? When i win 2€ from a slot machine, i should call it quits even though my deposit is $50 and i own $52 now? This seems like a highly subjective advice that can be interpreted loosely.

Do i have to win big with one big jackpot so that it's a legit win i can withdraw? Why is several smaller wins a bad idea, when that's even more plausible then a huge one bet jackpot?

AI fomo is real. And that's quite fascinating, because with $198 month (and that's with discount) developers must be e having pretty lucrative gross margin on sales. If they have enough customers that is.  

Just think about it. Anyone tech savvy enough could rent a powerful cloud server and run a custom large language model. Base code for it is already free and ready, and configuring it just for gambling shouldn't be that hard. Owners of such service would still get to keep most of the $198 / month, as cloud services for that doesn't cost that much. And they could automate the system. so with some web development skills and by scalng it up with new users, that would pay small fraction of that $198 / month... Soon it would still be a lucrative investment.

I wonder how accurate those predictions really are, because i am not trusting those charts at the site. Anything that shows portfolios that are just going up seems like a scam to me. Or at least an attempt of misleading marketing.

Utility and fundamentals of it create demand, and capped supply keeps the price up.

What does this even mean "not enough"? You know we can just add digits when one satoshi becomes too expensive, right? In theory it's basically endlessly divisible as it's nothing like physical gold or diamonds in real world. Real world resources can be described as something we would prefer having more of. World is never going to run out of bitcoin, ever.

Welcome to the markets. Markets have nothing to do with how life "should" work, or hoe value should be created. Working and studying has a nothing to do with size of your portfolio. Consider this more like a casino, but instead of betting winners in sports, you are betting on stocks, commodities, cryptos and such. Cryptos just happen to be most volatile "investment" at the moment and people who "bet" on it rising up were lucky. That doesn't mean people keep being lucky, as everything has a top and no investment just keep on rising infinitely.

It might seem like injustice to you, but this isn't "real life", or actual work. This is speculation of value.

Difference between working and investing is that with work, you are creating something of value, so it's safer bet to get money by working. You aren't even taking a risk, you are just working, and when you aren't taking high risk, there's often not that high reward. You can rise that money by working more efficiently or by studying though. And in investing, people put that money to work for them and by doing that they are risking that income. So they might as well could lose it. It's easy to see as unfair when markets are going up and people are getting rich because of it. If it would be going down, your post would look very different.

Polkadot has risen around 172% since October 2023 while btc has risen around 127% at the same time. So what are you talking about?
Are you asking why it crashed so hard after ATH? There are ton of reasons for that, but main one would be that DOT wasn't anything special. It shouldn't have any reason to get to new ath, but since markets are dumb, it's probably going to do that as well at some point. But i personally don't want that crap to my bags. Even meme tokens bring more value to crypto.

And since biggest security issue in crypto for a while has been cross-chain bridge vulnerabilities, why would people want to invest to a coin, that's basically build around that subject?

I am assuming you haven't read shfl whitepaper yet?

If that was too long or complex, it's basically reward token for using the casino, and 15% of shuffle revenues are weekly used to buyback and burn SHFL tokens directly from open market. So it will definitely add some value to the token, as casino itself is providing buy pressure.

Token holders will get some vip perks and there will be more utility for it in the future, we don't know what all that is yet though. And You can also use it to wager in the casino, which is handy but nothing special.

As in comparison $fun token didn't have any kind of deflationary tokenomics if i recall correctly.

I have seem many of my friends, and even myself to think that because they missed ath, and while they are still up 1000+%, they count that as a loss and refuse to sell because it could go higher. Not only selling the absolute top is statistically nearly impossible, we still beat ourself not doing that. We beat ourself not doing optimal decisions no matter what. I still keep thinking some ATHs that i have missed as a loss, even when i sold, roi of them were insane and nothing you could ever do with stocks.

Talking profits is also hard because everyone around you will say you are crazy to do so. They will say this is nothing and it will be on top 10 marketcap easily or something. Obviously everything can moon, but when nothing is enough and exit targets are as delusional as "think this like investing to bitcoin at the start". We are most likely losing.

But i am glad i took profits, even now, when i sold lots of bitcoin in 2015. Because i used it for making my life, and my kids life better.
If i hadn't do that and i kept my bitcoins and eth, i would be rich for sure, but if i keep hitting myself for that, and all i see is mistakes in my life, i end up hating myself. But if i see them as lessons that i paid that much bitcoin worth, i just make sure that those lessons were worth it. Because i wouldn't like to pay for something that i already know.

And it's not like i didn't do well. Just in hindsight i just would have done better if i had known the future.
