1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Bounties (Altcoins) / Re: 🚧[OPEN] CAT3 Poker App | Review Campaign Contest - $10 to $20 in USDT reward! on: June 14, 2025, 06:45:21 PM

To be honest, I installed and used their app a while ago,I first visited their website and then saw that there was a download link for their apps. The interesting thing is that their apps have different versions. Their apps are available for both Android and iPhone. However, you have to download it manually since their apps are not available on Playstore and Applestore. Since I don't have an iOS device, I downloaded and installed the app for their Android version.

Then I registered by filling in all the information required for registration. And they sent me an activation link in my email. Without which your account will not be activated. You have to activate your account by clicking on that link. Then you just have to log in with your username and password in a simple way.

Now let's come to the bonus, their bonus system is that they will give you a 100% deposit bonus.  Remember, on your first deposit, they will give you the amount of chips you deposit.

To make a deposit, you have to install a wallet app. That is Phantom Wallet. Here you have to create an account. You have to buy Solana in that account.
Then you have to go to the cat3 poker app and go to the deposit section and give your Phantom Wallet's Solana wallet address there.


This is how I come to their game section.
I tried to play poker by going to their game section, but I couldn't play because I didn't have chips in my account. However, I entered their table. If you want, you can deposit and play. They currently only have poker games available.


Finally, if you want to withdraw your winnings, you can go to their withdrawal option and select your winning chips and withdraw them. However, since I couldn't win, I couldn't withdraw them.
2  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Has this concept changed? " Invest how much you can afford to lose" on: June 03, 2025, 11:36:10 AM
Saylor’s statement definitely flips the usual advice on its head and I think it reflects his deep conviction in Bitcoin. But at the same time not everyone has the same risk tolerance or financial cushion what works for him may not work for most people. I think the original advice still has value especially for beginners who are just getting into crypto but yeah hearing someone like Saylor go all in does make people see. Bitcoin in a more serious long term way so maybe it’s not about replacing the old advice but understanding where you stand before choosing which mindset fits you

Honestly it hits hard I’ve read some of Taleb’s ideas and he makes a good point we love to look for reasons behind success but often ignore how much luck plays into it. Especially in things like betting where randomness is a huge factor I think many people overestimate their skill when they’re just on a lucky streak and they only realize it, when the luck runs out it doesn’t mean skill doesn’t matter at all but being aware of randomness can keep us humble and help us make better decisions in the long run

4  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why don't the rich people get addicted easily? on: June 03, 2025, 11:26:38 AM
This is an open question, maybe I could be wrong in the eye of some of you but am asking this question because a  large number of addicted gamblers are not even up to a middle class standard but they are addicted. Can someone tell me why it's like that or is it totally a different case in your society, maybe an opposite of what I asking is happening in your own society. Poor people gets more addicted, following the middle class before it gets to the rich. Since it's like that, I think it's just the poor people that are gambling the most in the world, if am not correct, I stand to be corrected.
Actually, I’ve noticed the same pattern in many places a lot of people who struggle financially turn to gambling as a quick escape or hope for a big win that could change their situation, It’s more about desperation than greed in most cases middle class people gamble too but maybe with more control the rich might gamble for fun but not with the same emotional weight. So yeah I think poverty and hopelessness play a big role in gambling addiction, it’s not just about money it’s about trying to feel in control or lucky even for a moment

5  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to deal with Emotional Swings in trading on: June 03, 2025, 11:17:47 AM
One very thing that I have come to realize is that emotional swings are inevitable in trading. You can be feeling so confident and on top of the world after securing a huge profit, then suddenly the feeling of frustration and anxiousness sets in after a loss or setback. It's sometimes a rollercoaster.
What has always been helping me whenever this happens is to step away from the screen of my phone or laptop( as the case may be). I also try to stick to a plan, once I have set my entry and exit I try very much not to second guess cos the market is moving. Journaling my trade also helps me to notice patterns in my emotional response.
It's really not an easy one, but learning to stay calm and focused has really helped make better decisions. How do you manage you emotional ups and downs that comes with trading, love to hear your responses.
Trading really messes with your emotions if you let it I used to chase losses or overtrade, after a win just because I felt invincible but that never ends. Well now I try to take breaks after big wins or losses and remind myself that it's a long game having a plan, like you said helps a lot and journaling is something.

England vs West Indies 3rd ODI

Today will be the third match of the ODI series between West Indies and England. England won the first two matches, as the series was 3 matches, England won the series with 1 match to spare. England won the 1st match by a huge margin, but the second match was competitive. If West Indies could have scored 320+ runs in the second match then maybe the result of the match could have been different. However, based on the performance, I will keep the England team ahead in today's match. I think England will win this match, today I will bet on England.
England has looked strong so far especially with their top order firing and their bowling, doing just enough to hold off the West Indies but I wouldn’t completely count West Indies out they’ve shown glimpses of fight. And if their batting clicks early they can definitely challenge but still I agree England has the momentum and looks more balanced I’d probably back them too for today’s game

Not long ago crypto was seen as this fringe tech thing and now it’s part of presidential campaigns and national policy plans. When you see countries like Poland and South Korea seriously considering crypto friendly reforms, it really shows how mainstream the idea has become leaders. now realize that supporting crypto can be a strategic move both economically and politically maybe mass adoption isn’t that far off after all

9  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If losing $20 per day in gambling makes us happy... on: May 24, 2025, 10:13:11 AM
For my perspective, I don't see you completely waste money if you're spending $20 a day and genuinely enjoying yourself. On movies, drinks or gaming people spend more than that. I consider it to be simply another kind of paid entertainment as long as it stays within your boundaries and does not negatively influence your life. Staying in control and understanding when to stop are the secrets.
10  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will you retire after $BTC reaches this amount? on: May 24, 2025, 10:08:47 AM
This question is for those people holding $BTC and other huge crypto assets. if $BTC later reaches $1 million, will you retire from your work or still continue to work?
Asking this question because of what i saw in a friend portfolio and he claimed if it later reaches certain amount he will finally retire. 
For me, if BTC reach $1 million and I have a decent amount, I would most likely slow down or change course instead of retiring entirely. I still want to remain active, maybe start a passion project or do something more significant. Although full retirement sounds great I feel as though I would still desire some sort of schedule or goal.

12  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling ads become part of daily life on: May 22, 2025, 10:45:47 PM
Almost every sports including football's dominated by gambling ads. Casino ads are affecting ppl. Kids see it every where it isn't healthy. Billboard ads tv ads & online ads are every where. How's gambling affected you & ppl you know ?

I've got mixed feelings about renting my sig for gambling. I've done it because I wanted managers to consider me for other sig campaigns which aren't casinos when they're available. I'd prefer giving it to mixer sig campaigns but they're banned. I'm not sure how long I'll rent my sig like this.
I’ve seen friends lose a lot pursuing wins that never arrived and that screws with your mentality more than people understand. As for the sig thing I get it sometimes you just need to keep engaged in campaigns until something better comes along. It’s a challenging situation to be in yet you’re not alone in feeling conflicted.
13  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is This A Good Idea? New Bitcoin Pricing Model - Pricing In Sats on: May 21, 2025, 07:10:11 PM
Yeah pricing in sats could make bitcoin feel more approachable psychologically especially for novices who see one whole bitcoin's price and experience sticker shock. It's like cutting a dollar into pennies suddenly things become more manageable. But you're right about the institutional side. A billion dollars would be 94,339,622,641 sats which looks ludicrous on a trading screen. Maybe exchanges could give both views sats for normal investors and BTC for whales
14  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Has Bitcoin Become All Right-Wing? on: May 21, 2025, 07:03:33 PM
Yeah Bitcoin's political branding is getting crazy. It started as this libertarian equal opportunity rebel tech, but now it's becoming co-opted by right wing grifters executing NFT frauds. The tech itself is still neutral though you've got anarchists using it to oppose governments and campaigners using it to dodge sanctions. The strongest voices just happen to be conservative lawmakers right now because they're pushing heavily into the anti establishment aspect. But remember when occupy wall street people were all over crypto too? The pendulum might swing back once more left leaning persons figure out how to exploit it for their causes.
15  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Countries that gamble the most on: May 21, 2025, 06:43:24 PM
The rating makes logical but Italy being in the top five is shocking.  I always thought of it more for history and food than gaming.  Given pokies are so common in Australia, I find it not surprising either. Although I would prefer travel for the experience than gambling, if I had to choose anywhere Macau over Vegas.
16  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Traditional Sports vs Esports on: May 17, 2025, 04:01:59 AM
I haven’t tried eSports betting on it yet but I can see the temptation, especially with how fast the scene is growing. The format is quite similar to traditional sports but like you said the hazards are different.  Cheating and match fixing feel more probable in that space since it’s all tech driven.  I still incline toward conventional sports since there’s more data and I’m just more familiar with the players and organizations.  But who knows, maybe I’ll attempt esports betting sometime simply for the experience.
17  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Elon Musk broke promise to restore Bitcoin payments for Tesla on: May 17, 2025, 03:52:32 AM
One moment Tesla’s accepting Bitcoin and the next everything crashes because Musk suddenly altered his mind. If the environment was such a significant worry he should’ve figured it out before making the statement in the first place. Now that Bitcoin mining is supposedly over 50 percent renewable, there’s really no clear reason not to bring it back, Tesla’s not doing great right now, and accepting Bitcoin again might actually help but Musk seems more focused on his own side projects and politics than fixing what’s going wrong with the company.
18  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I’m rich… because gambling is my entertainment. on: May 17, 2025, 03:46:02 AM
So I'm proud to say, I’m living the rich life, one bet at a time...
As long as it's done in moderation there is clearly an enjoyable side, Similar to attending a theme park or a concert, it's like paying for an excitement or rush. But realizing your limit is, in my opinion the important differentiator. Gambling can become hazardous if it becomes a habit rather than a pastime, regardless of how wealthy you are, Enjoy the ride if you're only there for the enjoyment and you're not breaking the bank.
19  Economy / Economics / Re: Paying off the national debt with rich people's money on: May 17, 2025, 03:39:19 AM
If only the wealthiest individuals contributed, it would appear that the debt would be paid off quickly. It's more complicated than that though in my opinion. Paying off the national debt is not as easy as paying off a bill. Economic policy borrowing and government spending are all related to it. Even a sizable payment from Elon Musk wouldn't address the system that keeps accruing debt. Furthermore many affluent individuals do not consider it their duty because they support limited government and lower taxes.
In my opinion they could do more though particularly given how many ordinary people are having difficulties.
20  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Do we all agree that bullrun has just begun? on: May 17, 2025, 03:26:43 AM
Bull is now back. Bears are all getting rekted.

It is time to hodl our tokens and enjoying the real party?

Even if the interest rate is not down yet, the market feels relieved and start injecting the capital now.

Seems like Alt season is finally here.

People are far more hopeful and the momentum is clearly changing, Strong now might really pay off, particularly if this energy keeps on. There are clearly alt season vibes in the air many little caps exploding. Still keeping an eye on macro issues like interest rates though. simply to keep anchored.
