This is the difference efialtis brings to the "casino review" website world that others can't provide. There is estimated 1 trillion websites with the same premise, they just "review" a casino like it is not a big deal and they just do hardcore SEO to get clicks, end of story for them.

However efialtis is not like that, normally you see other casino review websites become more scammy over time as well, they just get paid by casinos and promote the shitties places as 5 stars and highly recommend it on fron page, whereas efialtis literally gets FREE MONEY for you to gamble and see how the casino feels like, that is not something you can find anywhere else. If you do not like it? You get to gamble with free doge and never comeback, if you do end up liking it, just continue to gamble in that case. I feel like btcgosu will make bigger impact very soon in all of crypto casino world.

Can someone balance me real quick, how do people get losses even though we know that Bitcoin is destined for growth?
is it because people are looking to buy and sell quickly which may result in a loss if market falls?
Because in my view i feel like buying and holding on to your bitcoin until its value has increased(which is an assured) will always set you for profits.

please correct me if im wrong...
What you have explained here is what's called HODL which is being down for long term, it can be for months or a year, and not everyone does that. For some people is a different case, they prefer to trade daily and be making profits daily, so this will sometimes, for some of them, result to a loss because their experience and skills are lacking.

The Hodl you have mentioned doesn't require much work, though you need serious planning , if you buy in at the wrong time you're going to be losing as well, but I believe those who lost when the price was at its peak some years back will be able to recover their money if they can wait now.

Yes Bitcoin has been doing better than every other coin and more investments are going into it , anyone that's trading should trade with BTC/USD unless you're a really good expert and you know what you're doing and you have better plans on how to trade the alts, that aside BTC is the right cryptocurrency to be trading now with just USD. And then if you're a long term investor or trader, it's a good choice to continue with the Hodl if you want to see better profit.

When people were saying it was last year, I never believed it, I kept saying that it's going to be this year or next, and even if it's going to be this year it would be anywhere around December, and we are yet to reach there, the price is speeding up, in less than 24 hours of reaching $15,000 is close to $15,500.
1164  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: ETH still going higher as our anticipatiion on: November 05, 2020, 09:19:14 PM
Ethereums biggest year to date increase happened during this defi things picked up some pace. At first of january on new years it was 130 dollars but around valentine's day it already doubled its profit and reached to 260 dollars, it didn't take long to reach there like it has been stable a bit for the recent while. However after that the next big increase came at around July which is the month where all the defi, dex and many other stuff like that got super exciting and everyone got involved.

This whole summer has been the summer of decentralized projects which almost all of them used ethereum and this is why there was a lot of eth buying and price increasing which made it close to 400 dollars during that period. Obviously it went down since but we are not once again above 400 as expected.

Question about the exchange part of Sportsbet.

If I exchange €100 into mbtc and head into to the casino. I play through the full amount and end up with 20 mbtc. Can I withdraw 20 mbtc or do I have to exchange it back into EUR?

Tried to search but cant seem to find the answer... Anyone know the rules?
You cannot change deposited EUR or fiat currencies into BTC like ralle14 also explained. Because you can only exchange BTC into the fiat currencies and actually if you deposit 1 BTC and convert it into say 15k USD then you win 15k more in USD then you can easily convert back to approximate 2 BTC and withdraw, the vice versa is not true and possible.

The reason why they don't allow that I believe is because if they allow Skill deposits to be changed into BTC then people will use sportsbet.io as an exchange for Skrill/Neteller to BTC and that is not the purpose of sportsbet.io because it would create a mess actually with sportsbet.io being used as an exchange for fiat to BTC.

That greedy expectations part is like a normal for most investors lol, when you invest you will usually be hoping that the market goes up and you make profit. That’s why you will see a lot of people coming to ask for analysis that will show them when bull run will repeat itself again.

But you see the part of taking loans to invest in cryptocurrencies? That’s the worst idea anyone can ever have. Even saw someone that was advising his friend who is a crypto trader to take a loan from bank so that he invest huge money in crypto and trade and get huge profit. That’s a very bad idea.
1167  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: One of the top 10 btc wallets hacked? on: November 05, 2020, 04:23:07 PM
So which wallet was that? Because you said one of the top ten wallets were hacked, it thought you were going to mention which wallet it is. By the way, I feel sorry for whoever it is that owns the wallet that was hacked.

This shows that no matter which wallet you’re using, you don’t just feel relaxed because you’re using a wallet that claims to be most secured, you still have to play your own part by maintaining some privacy and making sure that you’re not leaving traces online that will be of any help to hackers and scammers.

Wouldn't expect this from Hong Kong because usually they are one of the most elite tech places in the world while not having that much influence from China like they used to, they are still basically controlled by CCP and China is in love with crypto with all their digital yuans and many more stuff that they are dealing with.

I am not really sure if China wants to have all the crypto to themselves but while considering Hong Kong had riots against China and lost, China still likes crypto so Hong Kong should too right?

Maybe it is something else and Hong Kong will just readjust to something totally different and have their own trading places where it would be local and that would be much better for them and would ban using other nations places to stop making them profit.
1169  Economy / Economics / Re: China is looking to get rid of the US dollar on: November 04, 2020, 06:32:40 PM
I would totally understand why they may want to do something like this, after all USA dollar is becoming more and more worthless every day, I would love to not have dollars as well, I already do not have any dollars but I mean I wouldn't want to have dollars if I had it as much as China has.

Plus having dollars is some sort of threat over USA, when China has trillions of dollars worth of bonds, treasury, stocks, cash, debt and other stuff basically all around own a big portion of USA's deficit, that just means China could suddenly sell them all to some other country for pennies on the dollar and crash American economy.

Or that was what they imagined would happen, however when they saw America printing 4+ trillion just in few months during pandemic, they realized having dollars would worth nothing.

You know a website is a great website when they do not want to create a challenge where they force people to get a result and post it on their forums and beg for the return of a small giveaway shared between thousands of people. I am not going to name any names but there are places in crypto casino world that makes you wager 100 times over and then maybe hit it (sometimes even can't hit it with that) make you lose money, then they force you to go to their forum, start a new account, post under that topic, and ask for a 100 dollar chest shared between 200 people.

This place is not like that, they are new and growing bigger and they made it "closest to 777" so that if you ever get close, you don't even have to hit it, just get close and that is enough for you.
1171  Economy / Gambling / Re: MintDice – Bitcoin Casino With Online Slots, Bitcoin Crash & Bitcoin Investment on: November 04, 2020, 08:20:09 AM
i guess, it is time also for them to add other alts like doge or xrp as a start.
with bitcoin fees getting higher, some gamblers will be hesitant to play using btc and look for other sites that accept other alts.
Yeah I agree, more coins will be a great addition, that is the thing about suggesting something to mintdice right now, we can't really prioritize anything over update so there is nothing we can say that could happen at anytime soon (unless they were working on it as a part of the update) which is why I am just waiting and I will give my feedback after the update.

They probably realized the fee situation long time ago as well, I don't know what their situation is like user numbers and if they are getting more profits and users or not, those are data that only owner can know but I feel like they are 100% aware that if they could finish the product finally, they could do a huge promotion and have like 10x more gambling right away, so I am sure they are doing their best as well.
1172  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Stablecoins with highest interest rates? on: November 04, 2020, 07:27:48 AM
If they are offering that much, how sure are you that they are making more than in a month to be able to pay you that amount? Huh It is still your choice, even Ponzi's don’t scam people immediately, they first wait till they have gotten so many people and then – boom! Shocked you fall into their trap.

Although the earlier investors might not be affected because they have quit a long time. But anyway, like I have said, you can still give it a short, maybe they are legit and something different, I hope so, but those offers? They don’t look like what legit platforms would give.
1173  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Fast food restaurants accepting crypto as payment method? on: November 04, 2020, 06:54:11 AM
I have not seen any restaurant in my country accepting crypto payments still honestly I wouldn’t like to pay in a restaurant and then start waiting for the confirmation of my transaction, worse if the restaurant would say more than three confirmations and the network is congested, I will pay high fees in regular and also wait for a long time.

It’s just like recently when I made a payment and I used the regular fees which normally takes less than thirty minutes, but due to the network being congested I had to wait for three hours, it was very annoying. That apart it would still be cool if restaurants are accepting cryptocurrencies as payment, the thing is if we can deal with it.
1174  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The crypto compliance lie: Sacrificing privacy does not make us safer on: November 02, 2020, 09:29:35 PM
The government has always wanted to be in charge of everything. At first they despised cryptocurrencies and wanted to stop them, but later they realized that they won’t be able to stop it, as the rule says – if you can’t beat them, you join them, they are now trying penetrate into the cryptocurrency environment, soon they will try to place some kind of asunder that will frustrate people that are making use of crypto.

And it’s not just about that, when the government takes over in this space, that means you will have to be paying any fees they decide plus other things that they will try to introduce to ruin everything. So with this new law they are trying to setup, so if you buy crypto from centralized exchange you won’t be able to move it to your private wallet? Jokers.

update:
Thanks to the feedback i received on bitcointalk, i did convince the own to do a manual translation using a completely different plugin... As for now, most of the site is translated by me or the owner (neither of us is a native speaker tough, if you find spelling errors, don't hesitate to give a shout-out).

I'm still figuring out some of the other feedback i got... The site uses wordpress+woocommerce, and some of the features are a bit "harder" to do (for example, showing a quantity selection outside of the cart).

It's a work in progress  Grin
Looks like the translation is not finished and added to the website as, because when I clicked English from the language menu, it gave a 500 Internal Server Error. So, I managed to translate it using google translation.
The website looks like a simple blog instead of an e-commerce shop. You might consider using shopify. Shopify gives better themes and features than woocommerce.

and is shipping available for worldwide?
1176  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The biggest #Bitcoin transaction in history was sent literally just now! on: October 31, 2020, 07:03:24 PM
Wow and that’s something to talk about right there, a fee of $3,54?

I couldn’t really believe that until I clicked the block explorer link and checked it for myself, the transaction took place on the 26th of this October and that’s five days ago!

The amount is worth $1.2 billion from what I have seen on the blockchain.com and the fees worth $3.78 that’s some unbelievable shiii we have right there! This would be completely impossible to do if they chose to use PayPal, because nobody would agree to pay up to 2.9% for an amount as huge as that.
1177  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Thoughts on DeFi on Bitcoin Network? on: October 31, 2020, 06:29:47 PM
You mean building DeFi directly on Bitcoin? I believe that’s being done. Before now I have seen an article on Coindesk that was also focused on this, funny enough it was this month that I saw the article.

Based on what the author was saying, building a Bitcoin DeFi on Ethereum just as some people here have said will automatically make the project a second class, because it’s already being backed by Ethereum and not Bitcoin, the network fees and everything that has to do with the DeFi would be eth. With that said, he added that a better option, instead of Ethereum which is fatal flaw, would be Bitcoin layer 2 which is providing better tools to create DeFi on Bitcoin native environment.
1178  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is bitcoin cross $15k in end of 2020 on: October 31, 2020, 10:15:49 AM
I doubt that we are ever going to have anything like that 2017 increase but 2020 has been great for crypto. Not because our real lives outside is doing any better because pandemic is still going on and unfortunately governments did the lockdown thing and it worked yet stopped for some reason, so now everyone is out there because "economy must continue" and getting sick again, we are having huge spikes of death numbers once again.

So, I believe outside world will not get better. However this caused a ton of digital and technological improvements in crypto world, higher adoption, paypal, defi, and many other things that made tons of profit in the crypto world and that is why I think 2020 has been incredible so far. From 3.6k bottom of the year to 13.8k of the peak, it is incredible how amazing we have gone up in a bad financial year for almost everything else.

^ I have worked in technical support before and many people think that when you call them or write to them you are going to get an answer right there in the chat and I cannot emphasize enough that it is not like that.

It is not like that here, it is not like that ANYWHERE in the online world, it doesn't even need to be casinos, crypto or anything if you are talking with an online support on any website in the world, know that they are not there to help you in technical stuff, they are there so that you do not just send an email and wait, that's all they do.

Sure there are simple stuff where people have a small handbook where they can make you do some tiny stuff or ask you questions about some stuff to help you better, but the number one reason support is there to take all the data from you and pass it to coders just so they could check and see and fix if anything is wrong.
1180  Economy / Gambling / Re: 🚀 Sportsbet.io - Official betting partner of ARSENAL FC 🚀 on: October 31, 2020, 06:18:46 AM
^ Why wager against Bayern Munich? I mean I do not care about the results neither, because when you have a team like Bayern that team should probably win almost any game at all, I wouldn't wager against Bayern even in champions league neither and I am not saying that just because of last year, they are always great.

In fact I rarely ever go beyond 4 odds in sportsbetting, sure in dice you can try 10+ times and get a 11x very commonly and that would be understandable, but to gamble in a sports game with 11x means you could gamble 100 times and still lose since that is the team that should be destroyed to begin with. I guess there is always a first for anything and buway just tried to find that angle for the game, I can't come up with any other reason tbf and it is his slip so I am not going to argue against his decision.
