1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Low cap altcoins best for rising price? on: Today at 07:44:03 PM
First of all, people who understand Crypto market and have knowledge about it, won't expect to cross their altcoins more than 100x something. 100x altcoins are shitcoins or could be memecoin. And that could be luck game or gambling, which is another topic. But mainly we should focus good altcoins rather than shitcoin and supply won't matter you are choosing good altcoins. You should remember that, the project is only matter. Supply doesn't impect that much except in token price
Yeah, that's right. People who understand the market would know that they can't get 100x or more in profit from a coin that has been around for some time and is trusted in the community because they aren't pump-and-dump coins and even if they grow, the growth will be organic and organic growth can't get them that far. It is only the projects that are heavily pumped using different tactics can reach that much and that doesn't happen all the time.

People who invest in meme coins and shit-coins only with the hope that they might get 100x or more in profit from them will eventually realize that they made a mistake because only a few out of thousands of such projects manage to gain substantial value and get extreme profits to their investors which isn't a risk worth taking.
2  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Are you still buying altcoins?? on: Today at 07:00:42 PM
Alt coins are never bad to invest in. But if you want to understand the difference between bitcoin and alt coins then of course I will choose bitcoin here because I prefer to buy bit more than investing in alt coins. Bitcoin market before investing and then investing. If we can invest in Bitcoin for long term by checking the market and taking time patiently then surely we will get more success with Bitcoin investment. I won't say that Bitcoin alt coins are bad. You can definitely invest in both and you will understand yourself which one gives you the most profit.
One doesn't need to make investments in both only to see which will give them more profit. Bitcoin undoubtedly is the best cryptocurrency in the market because it's the most trusted and people know they won't have any problems if they make investments in Bitcoin since it has been around for more than a decade already and whenever it loses value and drops significantly, it has always managed to regain its value over time.

Regardless of this fact, it doesn't mean altcoins aren't worthy of investments. The only downside of altcoins is that not all of them are good and worthy of investment, but this can be known if a person does some research before they make their investments. If someone thinks they can't do that, they shouldn't invest in them.

Yes, you can do that, but there are both pros and cons to that.

When you submit your KYC or complete your identity verification even before you are asked to do it, you will have the advantage of not being asked for KYC verification when you go for a withdraw after you win something because you have already done it.

However, in some casino platforms, you are not asked for KYC verification as long as there is no suspicion or anything from the management, so you might be able to make deposits and withdrawals without having to do KYC, and if you do it early, you will give your personal documents to them without them needing them or asking for them.
4  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you care about what people say about you gambling? on: Today at 11:00:35 AM
Yes I do. I even hide my gambling practices from my family and my partner. I had even promised not to gamble again the last time I lost a large amount of money rage betting. I would have hid it but it was too large to go missing. I too have a social life and is considered as a person who don't like to party or gamble. All the gambling I do are online. There are some friends and colleagues who knows I'm active in gambling as we do talk about where the better odds are provided for sports betting and who might win. There's a few friends who are introduced to online games by myself. Except for them, no other would guess the amount of time and money I lose on gambling.
I think a relationship should be based on basic understanding and trust in one another, each partner should know and understand what the other partner likes to do and they should be allowed to do that as long as it is not harming anyone or the relationship. When there are restrictions, no trust, no understanding, that is when such things start to happen where one partner starts hiding their activities from the other which is unethical but what can be done.

I agree with you that each person should have their social life and they should be allowed for it. If you are not an addicted gambler or don't spend excessive money and time on it, your partner should have no problem with it because being too controlling and bossy can bring distances in a relationship in my opinion.

You kept losing money but still keep on coming back and call it as your favourite game? LoL, I think that was crazy. I know that this was gambling where the house mostly has the advantage but there must be games that are more tailored to us or to our luck that we can be able to win more often there, than compared to other games.

Each slot games has an attractive sound and graphics because this is also another reason for the people to get hooked on them but no doubt that some slot provider has an exceptional quality and among it is the ones you are playing there which is called Hacksaw Gaming. No wonder why they are popular, along with Pragmatic Play, and the rest...
6  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: May 01, 2024, 06:08:34 PM
Real Madrid did not play too well in this match and their coach Ancelotti frankly talked about it in a press conference after the match. The key point in this match is Kim Min Jae and Vinicius Jr. The defender made mistakes that lead to a penalty for Real Madrid and Vinicius scored a second goal for Real Madrid.
They are probably more relaxed now, because although mathematically they haven't won the league yet, the distance over Barcelona with only 5 games to go is very comfortable, because they just need not to fuck up to win it. This next match day they could already be proclaimed champions.
i'm confused by the strategy that Ancelotti used when facing Bayern, he put Bellingham as a wing attacker, while when facing Sociedad some time ago, Bellingham was not played.  In fact, i prefer Madrid's performance against Sociedad rather than against Bayern.  This season's UCL seems to be going very hard for Madrid, even though Madrid are the strongest in La Liga. 

Meanwhile in La Liga, Madrid's performance is very impressive, the La Liga title is in sight.
I have feeling there is no confusion regarding Carlos Ancelotti strategy as things are going they are doing impressive job with La Liga is already into their pocket and now with this first leg result most chances we will have Champions League could be also under there control even things are still challenging but their performance and quality is impressive, and they are doing good Jude Bellingham is key player for them and coach is using him wisely with they want good end of the season without any injury or problem which have troubles for them in last season.

No doubt things are not going as they want but still they are doing good job and next season could be more attractive because now they are having better way of play which is giving them good success and their quality and consistency is also giving them good results.
7  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: May 01, 2024, 03:08:45 PM
Arteta and the whole Arsenal squad including the managements and fans were very serious about the Premier League title towards this end of the season. The lose against Aston Villa is the main cause of this debate of who should win within Arsenal and Manchester City, because with this performance and serious Arsenal have this season, going without a single trophy will be painful because they spent a lot to build the team and are in the right position to compete for the title. If Manchester City win all their remaining matches, there is no more hope for Arsenal.
But Arsenal are much better in the current position because they have been able to compete even with the fight for the Premier League trophy, we know Man City has been in great form for several seasons as well as the titles won with Pep Guardiola, therefore Arteta will not easily take it from Pep, this all needs a strong process and alliance.

Not that there is no hope it's just that it's in the hands of Man City and it's true what the comment above says, we have to wait for that result even though I don't think Man City will lose.
Something great has been achieved by Arteta with Arsenal now just waiting for the moment where they continue to improve their performance must be above Man City.
In last two seasons, things were really at the top while we are having them competitive for the title, but sadly things have never been favourable for them while they have good chance for the win but as they are playing and having experience and quality we can expect them for having another good season is waiting for them, and we can expect they could be leading contender for the title because now they are having their best strategy which was needed for the years.

Current season now all depend on Manchester City how they perform into their last 4 games because they are having good advantage due to bad performance of the Liverpool and Arsenal which lost their games on wrong time which was beneficial for the Manchester City to have another title as gift from these two clubs.

This post was made on the 8th of April and from the turn of events in the both the EPL and the UEFA champions league, the supercomputer got the predictions wrong. While we've seen how impactful Artificial Intelligence is in transforming various sectors of the economy, they also have their limitations. Prediction are guesses, AI picks random data and comes up with a result. Looking at the EPL take right now, it'll take a miracle for Liverpool to win the league, the outcome of the above mentioned leagues is a good reason why we shouldn't base our gambling predictions on AI.
Even before this, it has always been evident that Artificial Intelligence isn't reliable when it comes to making bets on sports events and a lot of other stuff, and even the developers of certain AI models give this warning when you use their products that the generated answers are not always accurate and reliable. One should double-check the information before using it somewhere else, and this applies to predictions regarding sports events as well.

No matter how advanced an AI model might become, it will always work in the same way and that way is that it will process data that has been fed to it and generate answers and results based on that, it doesn't have a brain to think and come up with something new or think out of the box.
9  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If we lose in gambling, what do we need to do? on: April 30, 2024, 08:56:41 PM
Funny enough a lot of people who win in gambling are not much compared to the number of people who lose daily, that is enough reason for one not to take gambling as a means of earning a fortune, it is not like an everyday job where you'll work an expect income whether monthly or weekly. In gambling, making profits is based on luck and skills and 1 or 2 in 10 persons have been very lucky to make huge fortune out of it. I think the best way to see gambling is as a form of entertainment, that is why it is advised that people should bet with what they could afford to lose. Also, instead of chasing loses I'll advise you quit for a while and try again later.
That's inaccurate. 1 or 2 out of 10 makes it 10 or 20 out of 100, and 100 or 200 out of 1,000. Do you think that 100 or 200 people out of 1,000 manage to make a lot of money from gambling? That is 20% of gamblers being profitable which can't be true because if that happens, casinos would go bankrupt in no time. Getting some profit and winning a huge amount are two different things, we might get lucky one day and be profitable, but that doesn't mean we are in profitable considering our overall gambling experience.

Barely 1 person out of 1,000 or maybe 10,000 manages to stay profitable in gambling and all others stay at a loss which is the reason why casinos are always profitable and this is because gambling is a business for casinos and it isn't a way for gamblers to earn money.
10  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can people still get the addictive nature through friendly games on: April 30, 2024, 06:38:23 PM
If this is indeed a friendly game then you must all be know that you are not fighting against each others instead you are just enjoying the game with bets or not.

But for me ? our friendly game requires no money but just to enjoy our day together that we have been doing for many years now at least once a month when we have time to consume.
The fact that this game creates a fight, then I don’t think it’s a friendly game anymore. No one fights for just a friendly game, and I don’t think friendly games may require some money betting to the extent that one may put hatred over another until it’ll end into misunderstanding and create a fight. Otherwise, you are not into a friendly game anymore, but a serious betting game.
Yeah, but you won't believe that there are people who would do such things in almost every friendly gathering because they have a too aggressive nature for such gatherings which are friendly and there are friendly games played and there might be light-hearted arguments but nothing serious or personal. There will always be one person in such gatherings who would drag things to an extent where everything will get tensed and all people in that gathering will start feeling intense all of a sudden.

So, it's not like the games aren't friendly, but it is just because of that one person that the games become serious and non-friendly and people will start making bets and stuff either to prove a point or to win a challenge because they have been challenged by that aggressive person in front of everyone.

Brighton suffered a humiliating defeat after losing to hosts Bournemouth with a score of 3-0 without reply. I think Brighton has been very inconsistent this season and it can be seen how they always can't get good results in every match. In fact, they continue to extend their winless streak to 8 times so far and this is clearly very bad for them in the competition in the standings.

Now Brighton has to settle for sitting in 12th position in the standings having collected 44 points from the 34 matches they have played and it is not impossible that they will finish at the bottom of the table this season considering that with the remaining 4 matches they will still face difficult teams such as Aston Villa, Newcastle, Chelsea , and Manchester United. De Zerbi must play totally with his players in the remaining matches and must not lose points again.
There is no doubt about Brighton performance in this season, but their second half of the season is having the worst performance from them with in last 15 games they are having only 3 wins which are clearly showing how terrible they are with good thing is happening they are in safe zone which is creating no problems for them.

With this all most chances they are going to lose more points and their current spot as well because they are having last four games against good teams which can give them more humiliating defeats in next round they are going to Aston Villa then visiting Newcastle United and last two games are against Chelsea and Manchester United which are having no easy time so for me most chances they lost 2 or 3 games which will bring them down in league table, and they have to regroup themselves for the next season if they want to have better things.

With both Galatasaray and Fenerbahce winning this week, the championship race remains unchanged. Both teams are still in the race. In addition, the fierce competition between the teams fighting for relegation is still going on. There may be a scenario where the 3 teams that will fall until the last week are not clear, so the matches that the teams will now play are very valuable. We have come to matches and weeks where even 1 point will be important.
With the remaining matches, we are having clearly Galatasaray as the champions and Fenerbahçe as the second spotted team because they lost their chances after having three draws in last few games which give huge advantage to Galatasaray for the winning of the title their attack was also at his best which give them good support, and they were able to do things which were looking not possible in early rounds of the season at the top we are having both sides as superior and their attack and defense are surely giving them best for the staying at this level.

At the bottom, we are having interesting fight but two teams which are at the bottom are set for the relegated because both are having no chance of recovery in just four games Pendikspor is having just 1 win from 10 games which is showing how terrible they are and deserve to go down with Istanbulspor which is already set for the relegation.
13  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The Impact of Crypto Betting on Traditional Sports Betting on: April 30, 2024, 11:46:22 AM
Just like how some people would never accept Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies because they are pro-fiat and have an extreme level of trust in traditional financial systems, there will always be some people who would only use traditional bookmakers to make their bets on any sports event, so I don't think that traditional sports betting shops or traditional bookmakers will go out of business anytime soon.

No doubt using cryptocurrency sportsbooks makes it more convenient and also more cost-efficient, they also make the process more quicker because when you make a deposit or a withdrawal in a cryptocurrency sportsbook, it wouldn't take more than a few minutes for it to get confirmed, however, in a traditional sportsbook, it wouldn't be the same case.
14  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Solana - Is it still good to buy or it's FOMO on: April 30, 2024, 09:53:04 AM
Solana wasn't alone which had Such downfall record but if you search about some others top altcoins like matic, dot, link, ada then you'll found same statistics after bull end. Besides if a altcoin has potential then there's no problem if it dumped a lot or goes dip cause somehow it'll be recovered and so was happened for solana. After that, it touched almost $200 something and still expensive. And people believe that it still has space to grow more in upcoming days
indeed other alt are going down but the fact that solana has frequent outage and right now ftx is trying to dump their bag might be a fud for the future of solana though, so be prepared may be there will be waves of correction but its definitely just speculation it can be wrong.
It's not just with SOL, the whole market follows Bitcoin if it goes up, they all go up, and if it goes down the market will go down and all coins will go down. I am in favour of investing in SOL because even if the market goes down, SOL is a very good project, it has recovered before and will recover again.
Keeping an eye on the ups and downs of the rest of the market is essential for all traders. To be a successful trader, you must always have complete knowledge of all the areas you want to invest in.

Considering the current market situation, I suggest people adopt the DCA method, this will ensure that even if the market goes down, we will have enough money left to buy more. If it goes up, our hands will not be empty.
15  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How does affilate programs work in casinos? on: April 29, 2024, 06:33:42 PM
And it's about the competition as well as there are a lot of individuals too who try to be affiliate and went the whole nine yards but was not successful in the end. In short, this is a niche market and unless you are a authority, a well known personality in the gambling world, it's very hard to earn money thru this method. I also did this before, maybe got 1-2 active gamblers, earn some, but it's not like you are going to survived from it. Not saying that we can't be successful, but you really need to work very hard, go to different gambling forums and then reintroduce yourself before gaining some gamblers to sign under you.
What I think is affiliate marketing only work for content creator i.e. someone who don't care with privacy.

While we're in this forum are pseudonymous, although people can know the credibility and trustworthy someone's account, but it's not enough to reach "whales" and "addicts" to sign under your referral and gamble a lot.

To be frank, affiliate marketing in gambling niche might be the hardest to success except you don't mind to "scam" them i.e. gambling is a way to make money, I can get rich from gambling etc.
Well, it doesn't only work for influencers and content creators, but it is easier for them because they have a large audience and they can easily get a few people using their affiliate links to either sign up or buy a product that is being advertised, even if it's about gambling or a casino, they will get some referrals if they include the link in the description of their videos or live streams. A normal person doesn't have this privilege which is why it's difficult for them.

This is the biggest reason why most people don't get success in affiliate marketing and they stop after doing it for a while because it's not easy to find leads, and then convert them into referrals or sales if you are not an influencer or a content creator and don't have a platform with a large audience that likes you.
16  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you consider yourself, the family and gambling? on: April 29, 2024, 05:35:53 PM
Setting an age for kids to start? It's more about teaching responsibility than picking a number. Quitting? It's about recognizing when it's becoming a problem. As for satisfaction, it's hit or miss, but managing expectations helps.
This particular of your I think about the gambling have to do with understanding and the teaching your offsprings gambling is something that is not encouraging and before you come imported the knowledge of gambling to a children I think that there was to be up to age is not supposed for a gambler to come up with its own biological children also be a gambler at the tender age I don't think that from my own perspective it is right and it is well emulate from my own perspective in gambling, a gambler suppose to understand the protocols not to extend to its families
Upbringing plays a great role in shaping the future of a child and what habits and likes they will have in their lives when they grow older, it means that your children will grow up doing things that you let them do when they are young. If you allow them to get involved in gambling or any other potentially harmful habit, they will grow up and do those things as adults, so parents always need to make sure that they keep their children away from such things.

If a parent gambles, they need to make sure that children aren't around when they are doing that, they should also make sure their gambling doesn't have any direct effects on them like losing and then getting angry and scolding the children or the partner in front of them which can have negative effects on them.
17  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why are more people getting excited about memecoins? on: April 29, 2024, 04:51:04 PM
I don't think it was 2023 where the meme coin boomed but I think it's in 2021. this still isn't the first. I started in 2017 and I remember a lot of meme coins pump too. Despite of it, I doubt if there's truly lots of people who became rich here.

When I say rich, I mean filthy rich because rich is also a definition for those who earn a couple of dollars. The only good thing about meme coins compared to other crypto trends is that they can never get out of style but I don't mean that same mean coins can only pump. So for those who still hold on the same meme coin, they need to change that habit but they rather go for old coins. If not, then they need to stay updated about the latest memes and trend not only in crypto.
18  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When is best for a player to draw the line? on: April 29, 2024, 07:29:22 AM
Although everyone opinion is definitely different likewise mine, it's common when people lose and still want to bet despite the result, this is nothing personally for wealthy gamblers or those gamblers who gamble for fun cause they never get emotional and angry. So long as a gambler is having fun betting often then there's no need of stopping the act except they're trying to exceed their budget, exceeding gambling budget is something a gambler should avoid and if this happens I think the gambler need to stop for a while until the budget is refill. Personally I will quit whenever I experience a lose or rather I will prefer to cashout quickly to avoid loss at the end
No one says they will stop betting when people experience defeat, but what we mean is how can they control themselves not to continue betting on the same day, for example.
There are budget limits imposed by responsible gamblers and when the money they have runs out then they can stop for the day. It could also be that when they are unlucky and always lose, they stop playing within a few hours or days. When we are able to control it, it will be much easier and different from those who are addicted.
Control is everything when it comes to gambling, if you lack control and patience, you will barely be able to gamble responsibly because you won't be able to stop whether you are winning or losing. You will think you can recover your losses when you are losing and you will think you can win more when you are winning and it's all because you are mentally weak and have no control over your emotions and your emotions are driving you to do things that you shouldn't.

Responsible gamblers can stop when their budgets are out because they have patience and control. Those of us who have it feel like it's easy, all you need to do is close the platform and do something else, but it is not the same for those who don't have it because they can't just close it and stop.
19  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: About running an online casino vs an offline casino on: April 29, 2024, 06:42:23 AM
I think it will be correct to say that offline and online casinos are two different kind of businesses. For an online casino not much is needed. Security, page design, stability of server. People go to online casinos only to gamble. For offline casino, owner must invest a lot on how to keep client inside. People go to offline casino not only to play. Someone goes there to spend time. So bar, sitting area, more stuff is needed. As well as all gaming equipment, all furnishing have its maintenance period and must be changed regularly. Offline casinos is way more complicated business.
And apart from all those things in an offline casino, the number of employees needed is enormous, every gaming table will need an operator, there is a need for waiters to serve gamblers on their tables, there is a need for sweepers to keep the place clean and tidy, there is a need of having security guards both inside and outside of the establishment, there is a need for people who would watch around to see if everything is okay, and these are just to name a few.

So, there is no doubt that a land-based or a physical casino costs way more than an online casino where all you need is a running casino platform with working games and maybe a few employees among them will be marketing experts, customer service agents, and website maintainers, etc.

It is a huge shock to me that La Havre got a tie in that game and to be fair I think PSG almost lost it as well, they got the tie at the last minutes and I feel like that was terrible display by PSG, and Mbappe got in after a while but he didn't really show any presence neither, it looks like they didn't know what to do and they were all shocked.

I believe that PSG playing like this could lose to Dortmund as well, I mean there is a reason why Dortmund finished first in the group and PSG finished second in the very same group, and if PSG keeps this up then they could lose to Dortmund as well. I know many are expecting PSG to win, but Dortmund has been great at UCL all season long and I am sensing that we could see some surprise and Dortmund could be at finals.
