^ Because for me, when it comes to placing bets, it is important to have a level-headed mindset and conduct thorough research on the teams involved. Whether we lean towards a winning or losing team, understanding how each team operates it. Because it is important to consider all possibilities, as the outcome of a game is never guaranteed, regardless of public sentiment. Analyzing and exploring the capabilities of players is a valuable strategy. However, consistently betting on the losing team can be inherently risky unless we have extensively tested the strategy and achieved successful results multiple times. Always keep in mind that in the world of sports betting, being knowledgeable enough and making wise decisions is key to increasing our chances of success.

^Because I think gambling can be emotionally stimulating and provide a temporary sense of excitement or escape from reality. This emotional high can create a psychological attachment to the activity, making it difficult to break the cycle even when losses occur. Because even on my side I believe the gambler's fallacy is the belief that previous losses increase the likelihood of future wins. People may think that if they have been losing for a while, they are "due" for a win, even though each gambling event is independent of the previous outcomes. So in this case, if you can't control yourself, the addiction will enter, compulsive gamblers may experience a loss of control, prioritize gambling over other responsibilities, and continue despite negative consequences, including financial losses which is pretty bad.

^We are the same I also voted no because I did not experience this but I am thinking right now that it has a good benefit to us to count our losses sometimes when we have free time. Probably it will help you understand the financial impact of your gambling activities and provides a realistic assessment of your overall performance. By quantifying your losses, you can gain a clearer picture of your gambling habits and whether you are with your financial goals. This could be by understanding the extent of your losses, you may be motivated to adjust your habit, set limits, or seek assistance if necessary when you think you are in an addiction zone.

^ That is why we are in trading, don't focus only on the profit because trading is not all about profit, it is also to learn knowledge while you are trading. Because by investing in your knowledge, developing effective trading strategies, and staying disciplined, you can increase your chances of success in the trading world. It is very important for trading as a skill that requires continuous learning and adaptation, rather than relying solely on luck or chance as in gambling. So, therefore, trading without knowledge is gambling.

^ Definitely right both of you.
Instead of panicking, it is good to maintain stay calm and be rational. By doing the right thing during a price correction, such as assessing the market and accumulating more, reevaluating your strategy, or even considering additional investments, you can have yourself for potential gains in the future. Understanding the market will bring you more successful investors instead of panicking, so don't let yourself panic. Because from the start, your friend should have been aware of this before deciding to invest, especially if they were not prepared for the possible volatility.

^That is a crazy number of followers, you posted this on June 6 and now, I tried to check the Tiktok account of Barstool Sport on the top it's 27.3 million but now it's 29.3 million, how come that fast it has grown to 2 million in just 6 days.
As I see, influencers did not focus only on gambling and probably they actually gamble but for video content only for their vlogs.
However, that is a great list that you had. I only have a TikTok account than Instagram, let me see who are those on your list and if they are really interesting to follow.

^ Not quitting but I think it is good to take a break, take a vacation for a week, that sounds interesting.
But unfortunately, I did not experience this, on my own, it is possible for someone to quit gambling after making a life-changing amount of money, but it can be challenging. Gambling addiction is a common issue, and winning a large sum does not necessarily guarantee the ability to quit. Many individuals who have experienced success in gambling often find it difficult to resist the urge to gamble again, leading to potential losses. The reason I did not experience this is because I gamble for fun not for making money.

^ Definitely right and additionally, it could be your BTC trap on the gambling casino wallet when they will force to close by the government.
In situations like these, it is important to stay updated on the specific regulations and laws that apply in your country. If online gambling with cryptocurrencies becomes restricted or prohibited, it may limit your options for using BTC specifically. You may need to explore alternative methods or platforms for your gambling activities. Because everything is risky when you mix the centralized and decentralized platforms, unless you are using a decentralized gambling casino.

^ It depends on your taste, probably.
As you have said 1% to 3% is a low risk, this will probably be suitable for me since I don't like a high risk even if it has a high return.
Though these figures are not set in stone and should be considered as general guidelines each of us has a desired percentage in taking risks.
As for myself, I do not bet randomly or without any strategy. I consider various factors such as odds, game dynamics, and my own assessment of the situation before determining my bet size. I aim to make a good decisions rather than relying on chance alone.

^Definitely right and I agree.
People should understand and recognize that the boxing industry operates as a business. This means that sanctioning bodies and promoters often seize the opportunity to exploit situations, particularly when there is a highly anticipated fight that promises significant financial gain. While this may appear unfair to some, it is an inherent aspect of the business side of boxing. The financial success of these events translates to financial gains for those involved. Understanding this dynamic is very important to comprehending the decisions and actions taken by various stakeholders in the sport.

^I think the presence of remorse can be seen as your initial step towards self-awareness and potential change.
However, it is important for us to take further action and implement strategies to prevent gambling from becoming a harmful and addictive behavior. The support and guidance were available within communities like Bitcointalk or any platform that has a discussion can be valuable resources in fostering discussions, sharing experiences, and providing assistance to those in need.

^From the start of reading the OP thread, I am thinking about this, why it needs to download the app rather than use a website? The doubt was always there when downloading an app that we don't know if trusted or not.
I love to play because I was addicted to it before, if OP will come back and actively monitor and answer questions on this thread would be a good sign to make an account there, and don't hesitate to download.

^All I know is that web2 is centralized and web3 is decentralized, which is that thought they have big differences.
By popularity and gaining the trust of the community is a way we can trust web2, plus another factor by having an active business here in our forum will bring them more trust than others. The reason could be people still love to use Web 2 casinos is the accessibility and user experience. Web2 casinos often have user-friendly interfaces and intuitive navigation, making them more accessible and convenient for casual users while Web3 casinos, on the other hand, may require additional technical knowledge or the use of specialized wallets and tools, which can be a barrier for some users, that was I see here.

^I don't know if this is really happening or just a rumor, I have never seen anyone's information sold in the black market, and if there is I don't see the buyer will benefit from it which is most KYC now required face-to-face recognition.
However, just keep in mind that there is no system that is entirely immune to hacking, major technology companies like Google invest heavily in security measures to protect their infrastructure and user data. Google Cloud has numerous security measures in place to safeguard its services and databases, including encryption, access controls, monitoring systems, and regular security audits which I think is worth it to trust.

^Definitely right and I completely agree with you.
Let them enjoy their childhood and let financial matters lesson will come when they are ready.
Play can indeed be a powerful lesson for everyone, regardless of age. While it is important to expose children to various educational opportunities, it is equally vital to respect their individual interests and passions. BTC has a wild thought and continues evolving concepts, that may not appeal to every child, and that is perfectly okay. Each person has their own unique path and destiny in life, and it is quite not good to nurture their natural curiosity and talents. By allowing children to explore their own passions, we empower them to pursue fulfilling future interests and strengths and let them enjoy themselves, and don't force to teach them any financial matters.

^I don't see a risk at all if you have a plan for holding it in the long term, not the short term.
BTC can be highly volatile, and its value can fluctuate significantly over short periods. If you have limited resources and cannot afford to lose the money you invest, you probably want to reconsider the DCA way of buying BTC, it is a strategy where you invest a fixed amount of money at regular intervals, regardless of the asset's price. It can be a useful idea when investing in BTC or any other volatile asset, especially if you have limited resources. I will consider BTC a good investment than the altcoins.

^I smell not good in here, the weather changed when I was reading this at the end.
So tell me, what are the advantages if we know the trading exchange that is used by the whales? All I know is that an exchange that has high liquidity and is very popular will commonly use by the whale. You are giving advice but you are trying now to sell the information you had that I don't think is important in trading. Remember that whales are different from a pump and dump group which I think you need to clarify first.

^You must be careful with all your decisions and never get alone, I remember your story of one of my neighbors before.
He died when he got suicidal successfully alone and that was his 3rd attempt. At that time no one was left at home and he was depressed about his love life and his family as well, seems like his dad and mom are always busy at work. We should always put in mind that suicide is never a solution to problems and that there are always other options and sources of support available and sharing your struggles with trusted friends, family members, or professionals can help alleviate the burden.

^Of all you have stated above was true except on this.
Trading is not all about making money or profit, sometimes you need to sacrifice your money in exchange for learning.
It should be better if you are new to trading to start with a small amount of money that you are willing to lose. This allows you to gain experience and learn from your mistakes without risking significant financial loss, and the last one is to implement stop-loss orders. This is a predetermined level at which you would sell your cryptocurrency to limit potential losses. Setting up stop-loss orders can help protect your investment by automatically selling if the price drops below a certain point.

^ I understand your doubt that you made this conclusion.
For a healthy discussion, interact only if you believe the story whether it is true or not, let us assume.
However, that is a fascinating story!
It is amazing to see how even in remote areas, the influence of technology like BTC can reach people. It Is true that children often absorb their parents' interests and knowledge, and it Is interesting to think about how this boy's exposure to BTC from a young age might shape his perspective on technology and finance. This proves that BTC has spread awareness everywhere else not only in rural areas.
