Anyway, whoever is behind all this should be punished and I hope the victims get the justice they deserve. I do not condone cheating in gambling but is killing really the way? Let us pray for the victims.
They don't have to be ended that way. If the gambling lord really wants to punish them, they should have been put into jail if proven they've cheated not to take their lives away. They've got families, kids/daughters, wives and relatives that awaits them but sadly, they're no longer coming home. It's a big issue that's being talked in our country right now together with the massive online casinos that they're trying to push for a nationwide ban. Let's see how the government will tackle this because Ang isn't just someone that they can take down, he's got connections and mostly, money.

Do you guys think that he's showing a genuine interest in Bitcoin now? Or is this going to be like Tesla (not) accepting Bitcoin?
Whether it's for the stunt because he's against Trump. That simple tweet means a lot already to the Bitcoin community. But it will not be surprising if he steers it because people will look for proof that his companies should accept it and put money where his mouth is.

I guess we can give him credit for not selling Tesla's bitcoin holdings over the years
Tesla dumped most of its Bitcoin holdings a little more than a year after the initial purchase:

Yeah, I remember this. It was a huge sell off that have been together with the issue that he's said Bitcoin should be mined using green energy.
3  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Deposit threshold can minimize gambling addiction from poor sector?! on: July 06, 2025, 11:03:06 PM
I am in favor of this rule. Because it's no longer a secret that our country has been infested by local and international casinos where even our government is having an headache on the growing number of gambling addicts. These gambling addicts are really spending their money for gambling that should be for the food to their tables. And they're even borrowing money after losing a lot of money and maybe a bi-week to a month of salary, they don't mind losing it because they can always ask for a loan. But the problem is they're only losing and we all know how casinos are built for. So, on top of a loan, they get another loan. And they don't even know where to get their next meal, what a mess. Another issue is about the cockpit gamblers that have been killed and buried in the Taal Lake due to cheating as they're targeted of the probable owner of the gambling platform they've used.

Legit websites ang number 1 na reason why maraming addicted na ngayon. mga illegal gambling sites, hindi naman yan nakikita sa gcash app, mga license like bingo plus, or kahit sportsplus na ginagamit ko rin, lahat naka link yan sa gcash app... ang matic na yan sa mga gamblers, basta cash in sa gcash, pang sugal na talaga yan.. tingin ko, doon talaga nag start ma addict ang mga tao nong nasa app na makikita ang mga casinos. tingnan din dapat nila yan....
Tama, kung wala ang mga legit casinos na yan wala din namang magiging adik. Kaya maging legit o ilegal dapat itake down nila. Masyado ng seryoso yung problema ng karamihan sa mga kababayan natin dahil naa-adik sa sugal.

Pause pa nga daw, haha.

Tignan mo isang ad nila na nagpapaalala na mag-pause daw muna kapag "pusta de peligro".
Mga ipokrito anu, sa kanila pa talaga galing ang ad na yan. How funny na ganyan sasabihin sayo ng isang casino, at least mag lagay sila ng probably fair na mga games, kase kahit yung live game ay regulated pa rin nila an result.
Ang tindi nila, tingin ko alam nilang nasa hot seat sila dahil sa pagko-call out sa kanila. Pero imbes na palipasin lang, sinasakyan pa nila yun dahil nga exposure pa rin para sa kanila.

Exactly. Especially if you are a beginner in gambling, then you don’t have to increase the risk by not trusting those popular and highly reputable casinos just because you find something new that attracts your attention and interest on it. Remember, everything that you’ve seen that is too good to be true will always lead to a scam. Stay cautious all the time, and just keep trusting those highly trusted ones compared to those new apps that arise in the market.
Many new gamblers don't analyze that when they gamble. What they think is such a good offer but for us, they're too good to be true and that's why we are already cutting off the attention from it and mostly ignore them when we're already aware that they're not as good as what we think of. The social media is full of BS and everyone is free to market their casinos there with the use of AI and use their idols pictures and edit and mix it easily there. Making it look that they're brand ambassadors or owners of those scam/fake casinos and to make people fall from it.

naisip ko tuloy kung ang paghihigpit ba na ito ay magdudulot na mawala na ng tuluyan ang mga gaming websites? baka kasi sa sobrang higpit ay kahit ang mga legit sites ay mahirapan rin. ano sa tingin nyo? pabor ka ba kung sakali na maghigpit sa mga pilipinong gumagamit ng gaming sites online?
Sa totoo lang dapat pati na rin ang mga "legit" o "registered" websites. Tignan mo isang ad nila na nagpapaalala na mag-pause daw muna kapag "pusta de peligro".

Our country is being strict with online casinos and that's why if it's about our locality, we'd be sure that there will be no more casinos that will offer us no-kyc. The thing is, there will be more laws and our online casinos and even us, the citizens will be subject to scrutiny due to the rising number of addicted gamblers. The lives have changed a lot of many people if it's only the stats in our locality is what being discussed. But knowing that this is a global trend, there is for sure more countries that will be serious about this. They'd be more open to having more online casinos asking for verification for tax purposes and also for money laundering issues to get on track quickly the users that are doing sketchy things using their platforms.

But of course, it still depends on the country. In the Philippines, for example, there are still a lot of vloggers promoting unlicensed casinos and somehow they’re still getting away with it.. at least for now.

Totally agree, even whamos hospitalized but still promoting gambling since they are being paid badly. I hope the new law will take effect.
That guy was trending. He's hospitalized, got treated and operated and yet, the link is under the comment section.  Grin
It's only a matter of time that this new law will come and even senator Zubiri started to make a draft about disallowing all kinds of online gamble in the country. As long as there's a need to bet for, he wants to make sure that no countrymen is going to be addicted to it. It's not too late for his draft to become a law because I think that we really need that to make it happen and hopefully there will be more support to that draft and expedite it to become a law.

Sino dito nakapag  withdraw ng PHP palabas ng Coins.ph? Ngayon lang ako ulit naka palabas ng PHP sa coins ph eh, pero nung nag try ako mag transfer ng PHP 49,000 papunta sa ibang bank using Instapay, hindi instant yung transaction ko kahit Instapay, may nakalagay na for review daw pero after few minutes natanggap ko naman yung pera agad sa bank account ko.

Ako kabayan most likely around mga 10-20k lang transfer ko malaki I do not recommend na mag transact ka ng malakihan dito sa coins kasi may feature na silang verification.
Agree ako, kaya hindi na din ako umulit ng ganyang kalaki na halaga ng withdrawal kay coins dahil kung hindi madelay, baka masubject pa for another KYC.

Pag nag tatransfer naman ako medyo may delay sila even its an instapay i do recommend to use QR din para mas mabilis minsan trauma samen yan nag transact ako ng almost 50k tapos ang tagal pa dumating nakaka frustrate after nun di nako umulit.
Mukhang pare parehas tayo ng experience diyan dahil hindi talaga advisable mag transact ng malakihan kay coins. So far sa experience ko with smaller amounts, wala namang bad experience pero limited nalang talaga ang ginagawa kong transactions at hindi ko na masyadong pinapalaki dahil sa mga ganitong pangyayari.

They look funny at the beginning but these humanoid robots will continue to learn the skill on how to play soccer since they're made of AI. Their brain chips will continue to learn how to play the game rightly and how they can improve themselves. This is scary to be honest, I'm not thinking about the sport itself but what if this is going to be the next big army of China or any country that thinks of this. An army of robots that can kill other human soldiers while them, at the expense only of money but their victims will cost their lives. Oh well, I am thinking exaggeratedly but who knows?

Sa mga nasa listahan na ito, hindi maikakaila na Crowd favorite ang pambato ng Ginebra. Pero kung susuriin natin maigi.
Natatangi na si Abarrientos lamang ang hindi Starting 5 sa mga nasa listahan. Sino nga ba ang may pinaka malakas ang impact sa kanilang team?
Madami ding haters si RJ pero kahit ganun, sa loob mismo ng court. Kitang kita naman natin kung paano siya maglaro. Kung ako papipiliin, gusto ko sana si Balti pero kung sa stats wise naman, kita naman natin sino yung may mga magagandang ambag pero hindi lang naman sa stats magiging basehan sa ROY kung hindi pati na rin sa impact ng rookie sa bawat naging games nila.

Hindi ako magtaka kung close match to between Barefield at ni Baltazar.
Sa akin, tatlo sila sama mo na si RJ pero baka wala pa sa iniisip natin yung manalo ng ROY.
13  Local / Pilipinas / Re: Mga taong Pwedeng magRepresent ng Crypto o Blockchain Party-list on: June 30, 2025, 10:36:51 PM
Okay ako diyan kay Greco at Atty. Harold. Parehas magaling sila para sa akin at may paninindigan. Kaso si Atty. ay vice mayor yan ng Reina Mercedes, Isabela. Ang maganda sa kaniya ay vocal siya at may alam siya sa blockchain at ibig sabihin yan may alam din siya sa crypto. Para sa ibang nominee o representative, tingin ko itong dalawang ito ay okay din;

  • Luis Buenaventura
  • Prof. Florin Hilbay

Kahit hindi partylist, kumbaga parang representative ng crypto community sa Pinas, ok na.

Siguro kung usaping blockchain technology yes sang-ayon din ako dyan kay Florin Hilbay, though alam kung dilawan yan pero kung sa ganitong usapin ay go din ako kay  Florin, ngayon itong si Buenaventura hindi ko kilala yan, hindi ako pamilyar sa kanya.
Madaming hindi siya gusto dahil sa presidential/national election noong 2022. Ok lang yan dahil liberal party siya pero parang hindi na siya active ngayon dun at isa na siyang professor na focus sa pagtuturo. Si Luis, isa yang influencer at naghohold din yan ng Bitcoins at ibang mga alts. Madami siyang insightful na shineshare sa profile niya at kung ako lang, mapagkakatiwalaan ito siya. Kaya ngayon siya ang head ng Gcrypto, hinire siya ni Gcash dahil din sa knowledge at influence niya.

Ang tanung nalang kasi dyan ay sino kaya ang pwedeng manghikayat kay Greco? though sang-ayon din ako sa sinasabi ng iba na kahit wala ng party-list basta maiapply lang ang blokchain technology sa election ay magandang bagay na yan at for sure na mabilis lang matatapos ang ang counting ganun kabilis at yung transparency din.
Tingin ko, wala namang dapat hikayatin. Kumbaga maging representative o boses lang ng community okay na, na walang sinasalihang partido pulitika. Parang samahan lang ng mga crypto enthusiasts ganun.

Alam nio sa totoo lang sa ginawa na yan ng Sec ruling ay nacheckmate nila 100% yung mga youtube influencers na madalas lang manghype at magclickbait na kumita sila sa ganitong crypto, pumaldo sila sa airdrops, na sa reality ay hindi naman talaga at scam pa yung pinopromote pa nila yung crypto na ginagawa nila sa content.
Tama. Madami dami silang mga ganyang influencers na nacheckmate ng SEC dahil nga sa ganitong guidelines na ginawa nila. Dati parang free lang ang market at social media world dahil walang relative guidelines and laws para sa mga consumers upang maging proteksyon sa mga mapagsamantalang influencers.

Madami na nga akong napapanuod ngayon na mga crypto influencer na nagpapaalam na sa kanilang mga subscribers na magbabago nara sila ng niche o content dahil sa ruling na ito at karamihan sa kanila malamang magshift sa online gambling kaya malamang huwga tayong magtaka ilang buwan mula ngayon mas dadami mga mapanlinlang na influencers na yumaman o kumita sila ng malaki dahil sa sugal kahit hindi naman talaga.
No choice sila kasi kung maging active pa sila, pasok pa rin sila sa bagong batas na ito. Kahit nga daw yung mga lumang contents nila, kapag hindi nabura ay puwede na silang mapatawan ng parusa ayon sa isang abogado na nauunawaan itong batas na ito. Kaya madaming nag lie low, pero meron pa ring nagpapatuloy at may konting style para hindi maparusahan.
16  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can winning $50 make you incredibly happy? on: June 28, 2025, 08:32:05 PM
$50 in our country is an estimate minimum wage for a week in the country side. And that's surely going to give happiness to those folks that have jobs that earns them at least this amount for a week. But it's not advisable for them to gamble with such amounts because rates in the country side are very low. It doesn't makes sense for them to gamble at that and for those folks like me living in the center, this is just like a few days of meals but it's still gonna give me a lighten up for the expenses that I am paying weekly and monthly. So, that's the worth of it on me and like others, I'm happy if I win.
Yes, this is why it would be that situational because not all people are living on the same side of the world on which $50 could be that big or could be that a dust amount. It all matters about on where you do live and thats why its not shocking that people will be having that different sentiment on a certain amount on which it will be basing up on the value of it. What matter most on here is that whether you do win up bigger or smaller than that then you do know on when to cash out or make out some withdrawal at the time or moment that you do made out some win and not just that losing it back again into the casino on which this is the usual case for most people. There are those times or moments that you do become greedy on which you would be able to forget on doing up the right thing at the time that you do gamble or able to hit up such situation. What matter most on here is that you do enjoy and be happy into your gambling session rather than on becoming stressful.
It's a global comparison why those people living in first world and developed countries won't be happy with this amount. And it's a question to them when they see people being happy with small amounts. That's because the cost of living is different from both worlds and the salaries are totally far far away from each other. And losing this $50 is also fine to them but on the other side for those gamblers that earns lesser money than them, this is something big. But if the economic situation of that person is totally happy on this amount, we understand them. However, if they are also earning less, they shouldn't gamble in the first place and try to look for more ways to earn more so that this looks as a pastime to them and not something they aspire to earn with the bets they make.

Alam nila yung balita pero may style sila na parang loophole ng batas na ginawa ng SEC kaya pinag aaralan din nila yan at tinetest. Wala talagang problema kung aware din sa batas pero sa side kasi nila, may mga kabuhayan sila na related dito at natamaan kaya makakaisip din sila ng paraan kung pano makaiwas sa penalty ng batas na yan.

Ganun na nga kabayan, iniikot lang din nila kasi alam nila na meron loophole alam naman natin yan lahat na kung marunong ka sa batas dito sa bansa natin, kahit huli ka na pero hindi ka pa kulong hahaha, ganun lang din nasaisip ng mga yan, pinagkaakkitaan nila at kung talagang malakihan susugal din talaga sila sa kapalaran nila, hangga't makakaiwas sa penalty iiwas at iiwas yan gamit un mga paraan na alam nila na hindi sila basta basta maiipit.
Ganyan na ganyan ang ginagawa nila. May ginagawa sila para makaiwas sa penalty dahil nga kailangan maging licensed kay SEC/BSP para magkaroon ng go o ok pass sa batas.

Madami na nag shift ng tema ng content nila. Dati sobrang dali lang magbigay ng opinyon tungkol sa isang project, ngayon mahirap at malabo na tayo makakita ng mga influencers na magbibigay opinyon sa mga panibagong projects na gusto nila ireview. Lagi lang din nila lalagyan ng disclaimer yan na hindi financial advice.

Pinaka safe kasing paraan un pag may dislaimer kasi kahit na alam na alam mo na nanghihkayat pero hindi mo pwedeng kasuhan, dahil nga dun sa disclaimer na kasama hahaha, utakan lang talaga para dun sa mga nakakaunawa..
Kaya nga, mas madali kasing maglagay lang ng warning para hindi din mabato ng SEC sa guidelines nila. Mautak sila sa mautak pero kapag may mag push at magmonitor dito na individual tapos ipasa sa SEC, dale sila niyan. Active pa rin naman sila at tinitignan ko nalang yung knowledge na shineshare nila sa mga kababayan natin pero di maiwasan yung sales pitch pa rin.

Yung titovlogs at miranda. May mga ads pang nalabas sa akin noong nakaraan pero baka nakaset yun kung hanggang kailan yung ads nila. Pero nitong mga few days ago, wala naman na akong nakikita. Parang ang ginagawa nila, kay titovlogs may mga pinopost silang results at feedback na tingin ko, nag avail ng courses nila. Tapos kay miranda naman, nasa Dubai siya at tingin ko doon itutuloy yung business kaya hindi na sakop ng SEC ng Pinas. Tapos plug plug lang ng mga websites nila pero walang discreet words na inaattract nila mga audience nila tungkol sa products nila which mostly ay trading courses.

Syempre hindi rin huli sa mga balita un mga taong to' alam nilang dadalihin sila ng SEC kaya pasimple rin un ginagawa nila, alam naman nilang hindi sila makakalusot kasi batas na yan at pag natyempuhan sila tyak bayad malala sila, kaya sa mga paraang alam nila na hindi direktahan na makakaapekto sa ginagawa nila yung mga pwede pa rin gawin para makahikayat at magtuloy lang ung negosyong pinagkakakitaan nila, pag alam mo din kasi yung batas makakagawa ka rin ng paraan utakan lang ba ika nga hahahaha..

Pwede parin naman silang gumawa ng content tungkol sa cryptocurrency as long as purely education lang talaga, at wala silang pinopromote na coin. Though medyo delikado narin dahil konting bitaw lang na sasabihin nila ay pwede na agad mailaban sa kanila ng Sec.

Kaya sa nakikita ko maging yung mga nagbibigay ng review sa isang coins o platform ay malamang iiwasan na muna nilang gawin yan, mataas ang posibilidad din na baka magshift o magbago narin sila ng thema ng content na gagawin nila din hindi malayong mangyari itong mga naiisip ko sa kanila.

Meron naman akong isang pinafollow na nagbebenta pa rin ng course despite na lumabas na itong guidelines galing kay SEC. Pero titignan ko kung hanggang kailan niya gagawin yun at kung merong magrereport sa kaniya or nakapag apply na ba siya ng license niya.
Rare ako mag follow ng crypto related pages/channel. Pwede mo bang ishare name nila?

If i were them ay mag stop sila kaagad sa mga gingawa nila na agaisnt sa SEC new rules kase mukang seryoso SEC about diyan, multa yan malala oag na report or na silip ng SEC.
