I have few questions before registering:
Do they let you withdraw without problems?
What are maxbets per match?
Do they limit your maxbet if you are succesfull?


You can see the limit of the max bet in the betslip if I am not mistaken. Depending in which currency you use.
I have not read anything yet about max bet limitiations.

Storing Bitcoin in a paper wallet carries a huge risk of loss when the paper is damaged as experienced by someone told by the OP. Hardware wallets in 2012 may not have been very popular, so using paper wallets is easier to do. However, if you are not careful when you save it, it will be damaged and cannot be opened again.
He should also have a copy of the see phrase elsewhere so that if the first backup breaks there are still others. But I don't know, maybe because in 2012 the price of bitcoin was still very cheap, that person didn't pay attention to that security.

You are right. There is a greater risk of loss in pap wallet compared to hardware, my friend had an experience with these.
Maybe it’s our nature, to not over mind something that is not yet valuable for us. Like you said, BTC price is just cheap back then.
We should all learn a lesson from many experiences of forgotten keys and passwords in this forum. Save it anywhere you can.
523  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If you don't know or understand what happened today with cryto read this. on: January 29, 2021, 04:14:08 PM
Wow this is so cool to discuss and it's completely new addition to my knowledge regarding how investments works in the market and how they could have indirect or direct relation on the prices.
So its power of retails and grouped community which overcomes the companies fundings in first place. This is nothing but signalling the pump in one direction with the power of altogether pumping!!
I just hope that this trend continues and other investors go FOMO and buy more crypto at this price.  Grin

I do not think the price increase is due to a Bitcoin "Short Squeeze" ...but rather a result of a Elon Musk Tweet about Bitcoin that went out. Source : [...]

All the rich people equally contribute to the crypto market.
So lets accept that whether it's institutional investors, individual billionaire or retailers all of them are so much important and run this business.

That would be really great, if it will just happen that this trend you mentioned go continuously.
And yes, the influence of these rich and known people bring impact  one way or the other.
This is good as per its effect on the market, but I’m also thinking what would be next after this?
524  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: WHAT happened to goosebet.io on: January 29, 2021, 03:49:48 PM
Being inactive or active but unresponsive to customer complaints is a red flag already, gamblers better watch out for this website.
Yeah right.

If it's no longer accessible and they can't fix it after it's been offline for a while, they are real with their business. But if it's not been active since then, guess it is what it is to think.

Yes. If this will continue to go on, people won’t help but to doubt them fully and jump into conclusions.

Are the goosebet legitimate? Do they have ANN thread here? I think post something like this might cause panic to investors or probably possible investors if they have ANN thread or representative they should at least clear it in the forum so their reputation would not be affected.

If they have a representative here they already posted here and clarified all these issues, it's very suspicious if they do not have an announcement thread here and they are not updating their social media channel, they should be active in social media and forums as well.

That is indeed true, if they take their business seriously, they should not let these kind of issues linger for long as these can taint their reputation.

525  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Should I accept Bitcoin for payments on my online store? on: January 28, 2021, 03:46:14 PM
It all depends on the location or country where bitcoin or other crypto is legal or not, if it is legal everything will be fine and not as difficult as one might think for payment or transaction issues because over time everyone will understand.
And if it's prohibited, you can only make online payments or transactions as long as you know how to use them and what level of security they are.
like in the country where I live and like that, because it is strictly prohibited if bitcoin or other crypto is used as a means of payment and is only allowed as an asset or investment and exchange it for fiat if you want to make a purchase, and if you want to use bitcoin, you have to make online transactions and only for certain people who understand bitcoin.

Indeed, the legality of Bitcoin and cryptocurrency in general should be your first basis in setting this type of mode of payment.
In business, there are many lawful requirements that you need to abide, and legality is in question then it’s a problem.
And of course, the knowledge of the customers regarding cryptocurrency would be significant as well.
526  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: WHAT happened to goosebet.io on: January 28, 2021, 03:02:53 PM
They are a good website before but something wrong happened. Their Telegram is active and even their Bitcointalk thread before those withdrawal problems started.

Even they will process now the withdrawals, I don't think users will come to play again at this site so for them, maybe it's best to just hold those funds as the damage is already one. And if people are now silent, they will now exit for good.

They may used to be a good website but this event will be forever tainted on their reputation, especially if it won’t be resolved.
I also think that gamblers will lose confidence and faith in them, and won’t try to negotiate with them again anymore.
Being inactive or active but unresponsive to customer complaints is a red flag already, gamblers better watch out for this website.
527  Economy / Speculation / Re: Do you think that a new ATH is coming or a crash? on: January 28, 2021, 02:26:10 PM
These might only according to research of skme researchers but honestly speaking no one knows exactly what will going to happen next in bitcoin. Either it will hit another ATH or it will crush no one knows. And even the bitcoin analysts or crypto analysts couldn't predict a correct guess because of the characteristics of bitcoin of being such a volatile currency. However, i am still looking forward for a good market of bitcoin ahead.

Indeed. Nobody can and will predict what will happen next even with the past trends as everything is uncertain.
Although there is nothing wrong to be positive and be hopeful for something positive to happen this year.
I think that we should all just watch and wait for it to actually come instead of expecting too much and breaking our hearts.

I understand that many here are after getting compensated for what they have been compromised for.
But for the others, do not waste your time interacting with this site as they have a lot of issues.
Resolution to this complaints are in questioned as these are getting numerous than being minimized.
529  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Don't buy what you can't hodl. on: January 27, 2021, 05:55:28 PM
So easy to say but very hard to follow Especially for long term investors. It's never a pleasant thing to invest in a coin and then watch your investment go low. I have come to realize that in any situation of the market, patience is much needed and also your choice of coins for investment and time of investment also matters. A simple way out is to plan your funds, dont fomo, buy at more dip, take profit at intervals.
in fact, it is very difficult when things don't work out according to reality...
every trader or Hodler must feel very heavy pressure when they see the assets they invest in decline in value. be patient and continue to believe is something that must be instilled in your head. Don't do stupid things like cut losses when the value of your assets drops a little.

As they say, “patience is a virtue” and with that being emotional is not also good in this industry.
You should have a strong mind, heart and determination in order to fulfil the investment that you have started.
There are always risk in every financial decision we make, thus we should aim for the direction that profit will be gained.
530  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Alert: stay away from new type of bitcoin scam on: January 27, 2021, 05:19:08 PM
-snip- honestly scammers had lately been using all forms of tricks via social media to scam investors even YouTube is not exempted, the bottom line is to continue to create awareness about those act of fraudulent activities to the notice of the forum members.
Youtube is also a medium that is very widely used by scammers to create fake giveaways or double bitcoin and ETH assets. Some even believed and sent some BTC and ETH. But what is more than advertising on youtube is hacking into Twitter accounts of famous people with blue ticks and then posting the same thing about asset multiplication. The case on Twitter got excited and the hacker was caught.
The latest scammer fraud mode is increasingly varied and more organized, therefore be more vigilant and don't believe in all forms of a giveaway about your winnings or multiplying assets quickly.

Indeed, frauds has taken up all of their scamming trick to different platforms nowadays and with wiser techniques.
Many are using the current crisis to lure more people, knowing they are desperately in need, into jumping to their schemes.
We should all be skeptical in everything we see online, especially with “instant” schemes being promoted by unfamiliar people to us.
531  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: People die from heart attack when they hit the jackpot. on: January 26, 2021, 04:00:33 PM
Some of these people do not know that they have a heart ailment and they only know it when they have an attack, usually there are mild strokes but those who suffered the first time and died has serious ailments already, they just didn'y know it, so check your family's history if you have this kind of ailments so your family will know what to avoid and how to address it.

I agree with you. If the winner died the time it was announced or some time after acquiring the winnings, these are both a shame.
The first would probable root to a health concern that when emotion rose up, it resulted complications with the body.
And the later could be that they went on a full glam and splurge not also minding their health and sanity. Hence, health is truly wealth.

https://www.gamblinginsider.com/news/10900/thailand-government-announces-sub-committees-to-combat-illegal-gambling

 
Quote
There is a lot of gambling in Thailand. An estimated 70 percent of adults gamble regularly, and the total value added involved is huge—possibly over 200 billion baht a year. With some small exceptions, all of this gambling activity is illegal.


Now most of the activities are illegal , so the government would shut down these businesses and at the same time might force some of them to work towards legally starting a new casino , which would be in the favour of the government. Though I don't understand why the revenues is so high ? Since most small businesses won't be able to handle such restrictions.

I do believe that the government with regards to shutting down such business should also think about decreasing the tax revenues for them since most of them are small shop owners and they will continue to do so legally or illegally what matters is how better the government integrates it in the society.

What do you think ?
Should they make reforms before shutting down the whole thing ? I think this could benefit people and the government as a whole.


Regarding the legality of these gambling businesses, only the government of Thailand could decide. Especially during this pandemic.
However, stipulation with regards to the permits and tax required should be done in my opinion, to give way for both businesses and government.
Truly, with the 70% of the adults who gambles, the nation could benefit by taking on its economic benefits like as employment opportunities.
533  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Why do so many people lose their positions due to Bitcoin's decline? on: January 26, 2021, 03:43:20 PM
Foremost, this market is volatile in its nature alone, which makes it more complicated than others. And activities of coin owners add up to this.
Now regardless of the knowledge and experiences, many are influenced and are driven by their emotions whenever there’s a downward trend.
Knowing the market and its movement doesn’t give the certainty of things going the way expected, thus decisions are also shifting, resulting to losing positions for the many.
534  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: No 2FA and robbed of 0.097BTC on: January 15, 2021, 01:09:12 PM
Foremost, I want to commend you for this noble act, I don’t think that everybody would do the same if they earn that amount from a technique they’ve discovered.
I believe that you had a good reputation with the casino since this act, thus I doubt that they would such as scamming you. I agree that you may have been monitored.
It is most likely that your account or device have been compromised and hackers are on the look out. Good thing that you have learned your lesson although it’s a shame to learn this way. Thank you for sharing this with us.
535  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Are you in panic whenever there is a big drop in price? on: January 15, 2021, 12:53:36 PM
I am certain that everybody does feel anxious and gets worried somehow whenever there is a huge price drop.
I personally had an experience of making impulsive decisions, which I now regret, out of panic when I was just new here.
But today, I have learnt my lessons and saw these instances as opportunities. I am more calm and thus I can think and decide properly.

537  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which is better, ether or bitcoin? on: January 14, 2021, 03:59:51 PM
What do people think? Is it better to invest, say, 100 dollars in ether or bitcoin?

In my view, both Bitcoin and Ethereum are profitable in many ways and can make  up as a good investment.
With the said amount, I would divide it into these coins as I wouldn’t want to lay all my eggs in just one basket.
But of course in making an investment, research is a must. And it’s crucial to have a plan and time frame.
538  Economy / Gambling / Re: Telegram Betting group : Proven Winning tipster on: January 14, 2021, 02:52:12 PM
Would be better if he would post up some of his analysis on  this thread than on just posting off those  into that telegram betting group and since its free then that wouldn't be an issue.

If people do find out the probability or winning chance is somewhat in the better or positive side then he might able to get some followers that might really give him some tip
on the money that he do able to win.

Building up reputation and interest into this forum can really be done but that would really be needing some good standing first.
Yeah, that can give more info about his skills to us, and he can earn some rep on here, especially if he can give an accurate analysis, although that will not be easy to have the analysis. At least, people will know that he really has the skills to analyze the match. If he can give us many benefits, I am sure many people will follow his tip and he can help many people to make money, and he will get reputations among the other tipster.

Well said. Since he started off by the posting his telegram channel in here, it is better to continuously update it.
For that this thread would not just attract audiences but would be informative and can help raise OP’s reputation.
On top of that, communication would be established where interested enthusiasts can voice out their opinions too.

German-born programmer Stefan Thomas told the Times he forgot the password to IronKey, an secure flash drive has access to 7,002 Bitcoin - $220 million worth. IronKey gives users 10 guesses for their passwords before seizing its contents.
"I would just lay in bed and think about it," Thomas told the New York Times Nathaniel Popper. "Then I would go to the computer with some new strategy, and it wouldn't work, and I would be desperate again."

quite surprised by this news because his Bitcoin trapped in his hardware wallet is very much.  Don't underestimate your private key and password, if you haven't prepared the best place (easy to remember and reach) to store your private key and password then do it right now..


https://markets.businessinsider.com/currencies/news/programmer-locked-out-220-million-in-bitcoin-forgotten-password-2021-1-1029961378

I felt indeed awful upon reading this. What a shame if the password won’t be retrieved right? It is a shame with that amount of Bitcoin.
I guess there are just people who aren’t as cautious as the others. And usually these are people who have much in their lives.
That is why saving and securing passwords and private keys are very crucial when it comes to storing cryptocurrencies.

A big question when some people starting to sell his script auto-bet.

Why not using for your self and make your self have more money, let's do the math:
0.05 ETH become 0.09/0.1 ETH with only 1 day.
Raise the bet every day, and you will have:
Day 2 : 0.1 ETH become 0.2 ETH
Day 3 : 0.2 ETH become 0.4 ETH
Day 4 : 0.4 ETH become 0.8 ETH
Day 5 : 0.8 ETH become 1.6 ETH
And going on.

You got more than 1K thousand with only 1 week, then why selling the script Grin because the seller doesn't believe in his script or maybe he not showing up the losing part of his script.

He just showing up the profit part, and to give some +add value when selling the script. ~XD

You have a good point here. It has been a question in my mind on what the intention of people selling scripts here. To really share or take advantage?
I have also encounter a few before this one, is this becoming the new thing now? Because I honestly don't think that it will sell in this state.
Good thing that people are cautious and diligent now. I am not against this but please provide credible information and prove what you are saying.
