Anyone watching Riyadh Master 2023 MENA Closed Qualifier? You can watch the game in the link below.

It is now the third map between Nigma Galaxy and Team Secret ME. This is a do-or-die series so I am expecting a fierce third map on this one. The winner of this series will face Quest Esports on the grand final and will have a chance to qualify for Riyadh Masters 2023.

It's already over for Nigma. Sven can't close the gap to Medusa while no hero on Nigma can comes close which makes Medusa unkillable on game 3. Yuma is having a rough time entering the clash even wih BKB and Satanic since there's a blackhole and Medusa heavy hit from his full item. 

I think Nigma has a better chance if they didn't make this on a very late game since they both farming hard until they get items while Secret hero is favorable on late game with their controls and Medusa lock items.

Whose watching now the last game for the Group Stage 2 of Dream League S20 with EG and GG battling for a possible thriple tie breaker with Talon if EG manage to defeat GG on this match. GG already get 1 game but I think EG can manage to get a game on this match since they are capable to fight GG with their current performance. On the side note. GG is already getting their tempo so maybe they can close this game on 3rd position and manage to have a good run until finals Against LGD/Betboom.

What the F happened on EG vs Gaimin match on game 2? I bet on EG +1.5 on this game and I stop watching on game 2 early game because all lanes of Gaimin is winning while Pakaz is having a hard time on his line because he was always pressured by rotation on the bottom. I just watch the game to check the result and I’m suprised that match is over with EG bag their 1st win. This is a very emotional win for me because I already lost hope for that bet yet Pakaz once again amaze me as expected on this SA boys.

EG got this, If they manage to reverse that kind of match against Gaimin. I think they can beat Gaimin now that they already knew a working strategy to stop Gaimin aggression.

EG failed to win that series because of their dumb experiment of Dark Seer on midlane. I get the point that they manage to win on game 2 using offlane Dark Seer on point Vacuum but placing this very passive Hero on midlaner is useless especially if it’s up against aggresive hero that can be online with just few items.

GG is beaten by BB on second place and I believe they can be kicked out by Talon on the lower bracket match because Talon is on streak and so good on Low Bracket run while GG is once again struggling to get their phase.

Hello guys,I learnt that pi network is a crytocurrency that is beneficial in the community ecosystem that you can mine with,I want to know their clarified differences and if the pi network and bBTC does same functions.


PI network is a 100% scam coins that promises a useless token for wasting energy on mining while Bitcoin is 100% profitable token that rewards miners from solving blocks and processing transactions in the Blockchain. Pi Network doesn’t have mainnet even if it’s running for a long time on testnet because devs is just giving their miners a false hope in exchange of free promotion that they can get from their miners that doesn’t that they are mining useless token.

Pi and BTC doesn’t have same function.

What many people are asking is what are the main challenges faced in protecting the security and privacy of users in the crypto market? How can the crypto industry overcome these challenges?

Learning the basics will make your crypto assest safe and private. Stop posting your wallet address online and avoid downloading on unsecured website that will make you exposed for malware.

Most of the incident on crypto is due to the negligence and gullibility of newbie users on basic protection and identifying what scam or not. Crypto is very easy to secured if you are a private person. I'm not a savy techy person but I never experienced a hack incident on my crypto assets.

906  Economy / Gambling / Re: FLIP.casino - ONLINE CRYPTO GAMBLING | $2.00 SIGN UP BONUS on: June 22, 2023, 10:25:40 AM
Hello due to members violating our policy and making multiple accounts, we have lowered the sign up bonus to $2.00

And by the way, and believe you are not new to casino and gambling, when launching your own casino which such a bonus in place, were you thinking potential users will be honest and not try to abuse the bonus?..
And again, even with the $2 which according to you, is the new bonus, what guarantee or assurance do you have that this will still not be abused?

Since 1$ is their minimum bet amount, it will be very hard to abuse such bonus because it’s an all-in bet compared when it’s 5$ that gives them 5 chance to bet same amount. But I agree that 1$ is almost useless because you will never have a chance to explore more the games because of the limited bet. I think it’s better if they will just apply a little bit increase on wagering requirements so that they can increase their bonus amount without thinking much for the potential abuse.
907  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin high transaction fees is a disadvantage to small business owners on: June 22, 2023, 09:47:52 AM
My problem with these high transaction fees, is that customers naturally wants to minimize expenses, so if they choose to make payments with bitcoin, then they will want to exchange it at the exact rate of USD. So the seller bears the cost of the high fees alone, which may lead to selling at a loss. Although I'm guessing that the high fees might not affect big business owners, who receive payments in bitcoin, because they sell with higher profits, and when they minus the cost of the high transaction fees, it still won't affect their overall profits.

I feel that this is a big edge that fiat currencies have over bitcoin, because you don't have to pay extra to buy goods or services, even when you make fiat payments through banks, they only charge a token as transfer fees. So this high fees is a disadvantage to small business owners like me who has the intention of receiving payments in bitcoin.

Even with SMES that selling low value item usually not advisable to use Bitcoin as mode of payment because of fee and the transaction speed. Lightning network is the solution but it’s not popular to many people which means only few accept this even on exchange.

I think the only time it’s good to accept Bitcoin as small business owner is if you will consider this Bitcoin payment as your long term investment and use your pocket money instead to replenish your business balance that goes to Bitcoin.

I created my token and launched it on launchpad, but I don't have money for advertising am I doomed to failure?
I'm trying everything Twiiter, Tiktok, Kwaii and telegran. I'm even calling people in private and that way I got 20 dollars so far...
Do you have any tips or is it better to just give up and let it go?

Thanks in advance for the help
#PilpiCoinToTheMoon lol  Cry

Yes, Most likely your token will failed because the competition on shitcoins is very tough. Advertisement is everything on shitcoin industry. You should hire influencers and active shillers if you want to gather investors around your token since no one will trust you if you don’t have anything while influencers can sell shit tokens with their follower since their opinion serves as financial advice.

Just let it go if you don’t have enough funds to continue the promotion. It’s a waste of time. Tons of shit tokens being mint every seconds that same as you, day are dreaming for their token to pump.

I am thinking that if this is possible then this could be one of the ways to get the best out of gambling and investment, I can't help but think that most gambling companies in the U.S are almost successful, only little to none run of out business in few years, gambling is a lucrative business, so I need answers if this is possible. Thanks

You are missing the point of gambling. We are gambling to get source of entertainment from gambling games and not having profit alone. Gamblers can always just purchased other stocks if they want investment and not to gamble. Investing on gambling company will never satisfy someone gambling needs.

But as an alternative to investment on gambling company stock market. Some casino like Blackjack.fun let user invest with their bankroll in exchange for a passive income like dividend on stocks. I think this is bettee alternative here in crypto.
910  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A Thought On Gambling Strategies on: June 19, 2023, 03:17:25 PM
There is still an iota of strategy in gambling even though it doesn't guarantee 100% win. Gambling is more likely 30% strategy and 70% luck in which most of the luck has a minute percentage of strategy. Just that the house always wins but on rare occasion it is the reverse and why it is always like that is because of desperation and emotional involvements. Sometimes a gambler makes a massive win and feels it should continue that way then end up losing everything.
Nothing to strategize in gambling unlike trading where a trader is expected to have a working trading strategy, however in gambling analysis of pre matches especially soccer is well encouraged, however that doesn't guaranteed an outright win because it is a game of luck and an upset is bound to happen that is why there isn't consistent winning in gambling, personally If I luckily win massively in gambling I ultimately quit to avoid losing back my funds I am still trying my luck having known or read stories of how some gamblers who won huge amount of money due to greediness lost their fortunes in their bid to win more money in gambling.

Nope, You are treating sports bet as luck based game only like slots, dice and other gambling games that winning probability is decided randomly. Sport betting can be analyze and predicted the outcome with a good understanding on the sports that you are betting. This is almost same with trading in terms with analysis because you will just need to analyze data from previous matches and comparison of players stats to come up with a better strategy for your pick.

There’s no guarantee profit even on trading just like gambling. Everything that involves risking money to earn needs luck in able to succeed.
911  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are there play and pay later casinos? on: June 19, 2023, 01:48:44 PM

On that note, about difficulty in converting or withdrawing it into cash, maybe for some who are really addicted to gambling will bite, but for those who are not okay with that kind of setup, they might not use it. I agree that since it's a gambling industry, the way those casinos will let their clients barrow might be difficult, or might be different from the usual loan that being offered by banks or any financial aids.

If there's potential money making outcome, we might see it, but if there's none, maybe we won't see any.

Casino will never offer this kind of feature since it will be a problem for them once the player file a complaint for a casino letting them lend money to gamble on their own premise.

This topic is already too old while gamblers can always use credit card to loan and convert to cash. It’s same with play now pay later since it’s in a form of debt. I never heard casino offering loan but there’s a lot of lender inside the casino that offers quick loan in exchange for a collateral such as car and jewelry.

@coinbox1 what about answering the concern of the 2 user above. They are spamming the forum about their negative experience on your casino. I knew that they are some kind of problematic cases but you should address them properly instead of ignoring it since you reply on other post and skip theirs.

The concern of @Rohang is just minimal compared to the accusation of these 2 members that teaming up already.

Is the Bitcoin discussion thread the right place to talk about Ordinals?

Sorry if not and maybe someone should tell me where this fits best on the forum and I will move it in no time, I want to get few numbers of Ordi and I found out that it's not going to be that easy.

I am looking into wallets that support BRC-20, do you know of any that's open source? The few wallets I came across are all web wallets.

Is there anyway to add BRC-20 in popular Bitcoin wallets like Electrum or Trust Wallet?



This topic is perfect for Beginners & Helps if you want to find help with your question. I'm not personally involved in BRC-20 trading but Ordinals Wallet and Sparrow Wallet are the 2 wallets that are being used by my friends that buy shit staff on Bitcoin ordinals. Do your own research and you can refer to this article https://www.makeuseof.com/best-bitcoin-ordinal-compatible-wallets/ for more wallet choices.
914  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Just got scammed by Trustdice.win stay away on: June 18, 2023, 02:53:19 PM
You are just paranoid about the casino based on your statement. There’s no way that they will watch you betting pattern just defeat while they have a lot of customers that betting more. Why they will need to cheat if the house edge will surely make them win in the long run.

X5 wagering requirements is really high but that’s their ToS and you are obligated to read that before you register before you accuse a service as scam.
915  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I think topics/discussion on gambling addictions is too much on: June 18, 2023, 02:45:41 PM
The topics and discussion about gambling addiction is becoming too much and too often to the point that most newbie may likely get scared away from gambling which will not be ok for the casino revenue generation so at this point I am force to ear my view of this topic of gambling addictions, becoming too much in this board.

Or what do you think?

I noticed the same that more topics about gambling addictions are created and also that more people are writing in the topics. The most messages I read in the threads are not about people actually being affected by gambling, but rather people giving advice on how to avoid the addictions. I don't really see a problem of these topics here, because it might help some people to fight their addiction or avoid it too get it to such a severe point. Also these are not really negative posts that people should avoid gambling all together. The most common advice here is to gamble responsible and only use money that we can afford to lose. These are good tips and reading them multiple times is not a bad thing for beginners, even though most people gamble here have been members for a long time.

Based on my understanding on OP point here. He is not against the repetitive gambling addiction topic but it’s effect to the casino that most of us here are promoting on our signature space. Some signature campaign participants that endorsing casino is suggesting not to gamble while the business they are promoting will gonna be affected when customers is reduced.

But in general, this gambler addicted is only few and will not gonna hurt casino industry. Casino also have this kind of advice under their terms for a gambler to play responsibly.
916  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Betcoin.ag is trying to scam me off my 7,7k USD balance on: June 17, 2023, 05:05:22 PM
Move this on scam accusation board https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0. Gambling board is already flooded by scam accusation already.

Please upload the screenshot as proof. You can use talkimg.com to upload image and send the links here. This is what I hate on some casi o protocol. They will still asked KYC then disable the account afterwards. There’s no use of KYC anymore if user account will just be suspended afterwards. It’s like a KYC theft because it doesn’t change anything on the user case.

I check their license and it’s not really updated but it’s same result with some popular casino here like Stake and Duelbits which means there’s something weong on Curacao license checker because these two casino will surely take care of their license. We will wait for the proof to establish your case.
917  Economy / Gambling / Re: BC.Game-🔴🔴🔴BET RED IN CRASH!🔴🔴🔴 Find More Unique Games! on: June 17, 2023, 03:28:39 PM

I am looking forward to successful restoration of my account so I am able to bet in the casino/sports and able to deposit and withdraw again. I hope this will not take longer than 24-48 hours at most!

Expect the worst. Casino KYC is much longer to process compared to exchange KYC for an unknown reason. The fastest KYC verification that I experienced is a week and the longest waiting time is 2 weeks. 24-48hrs waiting is for exchange KYC and not gambling.


They should now restore full access to my account soon, but will they? We will find out and I will update this thread and elsewhere in other forums if they let me withdraw like they should.

It depends on their findings on your account. Typically, They will ask KYC then follow up with investigation since your account got KYC. Your account will be full restored if you didn’t do wrong. You just need a lot of patience on this waiting time.

Hi vbet

Why are Nigerians not allowed on your site? We have the biggest gambling community and you decided to let us out? Tried to sign up and I can't find Nigeria. Why?

This is same issue with Philippines users. This is really odd to see country like us not allowed on the casino despite our country allowed online gambling.

Vbet has an exclusive live game provider called creedroomz because of its unique games and jackpot feature. I’m interested to know too when they will allow country that supposed to be not ban online gambling.
919  Economy / Economics / Re: Lucky you do not sell to blackrock on: June 17, 2023, 02:14:58 PM
A few day ago blackrock happy was buy cheap many btc in the market. Now, you are regret to sold it to big company which will be resold back to you with high price in the next years.

Blackrock is not buying Bitcoin on exchange. They are buying OTC which doesn’t give impact on the price or else we are already on the 100K mark price if institutional investors is buying on the exchange. They are buying on a market price or discounted price in bulk order OTC. So they technically don’t purchased our Bitcoin but they acquire exchange reserves Bitcoin for a market price.

The part when they will sold back to our liquidity correct unless they will find another institutional investors that willing to purchase their holdings.
920  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How the casino takes money from you with a deposit bonus on: June 17, 2023, 12:31:04 PM
The best bonus is not to take the bonus if it has a big wager, because it will be -EV (-Expected value). Any casino game is -EV, if you play by the rules of the casino. I will give an example of why you should not take deposit bonuses with a high wager. The casino gives a 100% bonus on the first deposit and wager x40 (D+B) = 200 x40 = 8k, we make a deposit of $100 and they give us another $100 = $200 (wager 200*40=8k). The casino has an average RTP of 96% (percent is different everywhere, depends on slots or house games and so on). For every $100 wagered we get back $96 according to the mathematical expectation (100-96=4), $960 for 1k wager (1000-960=40), $7680 for 8k wager (8000-7680=320). And after the full wagering, we will lose $320 (D+B and also we need more $120), which gives a very large -EV. Who thinks about this and the casinos began to raise the wager.

Even without this EV calculation on the bonuses, It’s very obvious that most of the casino has negative EV because they are a business which means their service is not a charity that gives free money. Most of the casino bonuses has a high wagering requirements so I doubt you can find a bonuses with positive EV like what you theoretically calculated on this. Even if there is,Casino will just hold your account if you win since you are taking advantage to their offer using safe bets.

Bonuses is not intended for free money. It’s an extra reward for your game. You will be busted if you will focus claiming it instead of playing.
