It is really much more better if you do accumulate
on your own with your own wallet and earn percentage gains or profits in a years time but of course its not guaranteed for it to happen.
But it's much safer than locking up one's assets in a third party platform all in the name of staking. Bitcoin can make gains of over 10% in a week or month if one buys it at the perfect time.

For some reason, people, especially newbies, feel “safe” when they send their assets to a centralized and custodial exchange and have the assets staked for months or years without caring about consequences in case things don't go as planned.
Because we got used to that, for example banks which give interest for our money deposited but it is less than the actual inflation rate so we are actually losing money while we deposited there for long time but as a common man they don't realize it and the same kind of thing or traditional also followed here as well when people entering into this market.

You are protected by the law when you put your money in the bank and you have insurance in case something to the bank that result to lost of your money. On the other hand staking is very risky because you are entrusting your money to a company that has no legal obligation to its investors money. Celsius is the best example here, People who stake money there will the least priority in case they totally go to there bankruptcy plan.

@logfiles suggestion has a lot of sense to be honest because it’s very safe and also profitable. APY on yield farming usually provides 20% and below which is not worthy if you suffer the same scenario on Celsius investors.

calendar in the OP has been updated! thanks for reminding me, @arallmuus  Wink

looking forward to Arlington major. Heh, I just saw that RNG will have ana as stand-in, talk about strange crossovers in dota. Ame has a score to settle with ana 👀 TI18

I don’t think Ana will still on par with Ame considering how many years he went offline on competitive Dota while Ame continuously playing and dominate Chinese region on all the time Ana is on break. Ana needs a lot of practice and motivation just get back his TI form to defeat Ame. This will not gonna happened on a stand-in team but maybe next year if Ana decided to go full time again and settle on team with good team mates.

Yeah, the hourly voting contest add spice to the voting event of blackjack.fun. And also there’s already specific time that you can vote on daily winner which is a good update to avoid the late voters just to secured the vote win.

I notice too that french roulette doesn’t count anymore as wager volume, This is bad news for small time player like us that wants to farm slowly but surely.

RocketDice also doesn't count  Grin we only rely on in house game blackjack which is quite boring because it can't auto play
Oh yeah I saw you a few hours ago hit 2 bets which I think is a big bet 3mbtc and 6mbtc  Shocked I know that's not your style of play right?
I don't know what you're planning but I'm still wondering  Huh

I use the extra money I get on my leverage trading. I just try my luck on betting amount because I have limited time to gamble today. I will be on vacation with my wife soon so I can’t while she is watching me all the time. I really feel regretful right now for doing such impulsive things just to get quick profit. I will be off from all gambling activities for almost a week, I have a lot of time forget everything.  Cheesy
1984  Economy / Gambling / Re: Bitcasino.io 💜 — Blog article 🤓 5 reasons to gamble with USDT 💡 on: August 02, 2022, 10:51:59 AM
Why not just also add USDC so the list of most popular stablecoins is completed. USDC is followed by USDT in terms of marketcap and is managed by Centre and Coinbase. I personally prefer USDC among the 3 because its local exchange rate of that stablecoin is slightly higher in the country I currently lived on.

Adding stablecoin on a gambling platform is a great idea because it will be easy for anyone to calculate how much they win or lose.
Still USDT has the majority of stablecoin marketcap so I think USDT still the safest and convenient to use in gambling because it support the most blockchain networks. I think there’s no sense to add different stablecoin because they are already redundant on its purpose. They only varies on the level of confidence but it serves same purposes.

But yeah, More choices is still betterif the casino has no problem integrating it.
Maybe, but at the same time we can't really have too much, can we? I mean I would say that adding USDC or BUSD or all of them at the same time can't be a bad deal. USDT is great and all and seems to be working for them, but that doesn't justify the main reason why we are doing this in the first place.

I personally would love to see more because I have grew up with the understanding of "the more the merrier" and that means adding more stuff here would only make it great. I know that some people think that it would bother the already established situation but I would say even if USDT ones drops, the addition from other stablecoins would cover that and then some.
As a player, I agree but I really believe that there’s an implication to business side of the casino that’s why they can’t add instantly most of the tokens in there supported currency. This is what I’m considering when I give my opinion above. Yeah more tokens will be good for us but if the casino can’t get benefit for doing that, I think it’s much better to stick on the major currency only which everyone use the most.

Sorry about the other day, I had an off day.

Admin just announced you have to have to vote in the next hour or so to lock in weekly free-spins(have a look at chat)
Inside info: I'm feeling very very confident I'll win the weekly

Update: hot of the press! hourly voting now also.


Hahaha. It's OK, RealWinner. We're only having fun "whale watching" in the casino, then talking about it here in the forum. Win, lose you will always have my vote! I believe you have enough wagered to win the Weekly Wagering Competition. I believe GOD won't play anymore. Cool

It's not only the Hourly Wagering Competition. Biggest Wins candidates also now can be voted.

Maybe you are right, RW sometimes feel bored when there is no one competing to him that’s why he make us lose on the daily vote winner. He maybe vote to God himself! Hahaha..

Seriously, God wager volume today exceeds RW's typical daily wager volume. RW is not dumb to contest user that already spend huge capital just to get the daily prize which is smaller than the potential huge loss that he can get by wagering that huge amount.


So this is the reason why we didn't get 5 free spins yesterday? at first I thought the admin was late in crediting the free spins
But apparently because RW lost in the daily competition I really didn't pay attention to the final result I confidently checked the Dig Digger game Cheesy
The total reward that can be collected in 24 hours is around 100mbtc well maybe you're right, RW has already made the calculations and it doesn't seem profitable.

Yeah. God is wagering too much recently which forced RW to wager a lot on final hour. God manage to defeat RW yesterday but he failed to defend his title on todays match because RW win on today daily wagering contest. RW is down by around 50% to 80% of God total wager volume on the final hour of the contest so I thought RW will gonna give up again today’s contest but I’m surprised that RW beat God on final minutes with close fight. It’s very satisfying to watch whale war on final minutes of the contest. Lots of explosive bets happening in there.

Hello! Do you have many live games on the site? Mostly interested in card games!

Why not visit the casino to see it for yourself? The representative of fairspin is very rare to answer inquiries here and they just updates here. They do have live games in the casino but they have a very limited game provider on card games. Ezugi is only available for Blackjack and 2 provider for bacarrat. The casino still improving there game providers.
1991  Economy / Gambling / Re: 🎲BetFury.io|$10 000 Daily Battles|🚀BFG Mining Extension voting on: July 31, 2022, 02:52:03 PM
When you do not make the money that a normal casino owner would, and you make back only a little because rest goes to dividends, then it becomes a problem to spend money on marketing, at least not a big budget, or you have to sell your own tokens to pay for it, which is a big no no. This system failed so far, only betfury managed to make it work.

It's worth noting that the Betfury developers initially allocated 10% of the total number of BFG tokens for marketing. It is 500 million BFG tokens or about $7.8 million if you consider the current price of the BFG token. It seems to me such a budget for marketing is quite a lot, especially for a crypto-gambling project. At the same time, Betfury has already made good progress since its launch, and it would be interesting to know how much the Betfury team has already spent on promoting its project.

I believe, those figures is hard to get as they won't disclose all their marketing expenses.
But I am certain, they allot good amount of money when it comes to their promotional activities.
They will not attain this position if they are not also generous in some of their marketing activities.
So far, they are doing good as they can sustain this business along with other features like their staking feature.
We don't need to know how much they are allotting like in promotional programs, would be better to see the impact of it on their site.

If you will check most of there giveaways, They spend the majority of there marketing tokens on partnership airdrop and tournaments reward in the casino. BFG holders usually suffering from this marketing strategy because the team usually liquidate there tokens on exchange to have funds on there marketing expenses aside from the token rewards. They just doing monthly token to compensate on this painful tokens expenditures on marketing but in the long run the casino will benefit on it because they are getting more customers in the process.
1992  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Rise of Streamers in Online Gambling on: July 31, 2022, 02:06:13 PM
Honestly, is that even matter if the streamer is using their own money or not on their streaming videos about gambling?

What if they are using their own money?
What if they are not using their own money?
What would be the feedback?

What I'm saying is, regardless if the stream was sponsored or not, the main purpose is creating content which is the main purpose of any streamer as they are trying to gather more views for their videos. More views = more profit = more revenue.

The only thing that worries me, for example, is that the game itself is fair - no matter whose money it is played with. I'm not a fan of such streams, but from what I've seen, streamers basically lose the entire deposit as a result. I'm wondering if this is anti-advertising for gambling?  Grin How stupid do you have to be to see someone lose money and go and lose it too?

Most of the streamers on twitch is not sponsored that's why most of them is getting bust and expressing depressed emotion when losing there money. I think only big time streamers are using sponsored money for there stream and they are using the actual game like Drake did. He have huge money to just to bust it up on a 3rd party live games. So I think they are using the actual game while streaming.

We are BetInsider - We are a passionate team of gamblers with years and years of betting behind us. Our new Telegram betting channel offers free daily match betting previews and analysis for every major league around the world.
What can you get by doing this if you're not asking for money?
Are your team really that concern for other gamblers to win?
I have doubt that there's no hidden intention behind this. Because there are many scammers especially in TG hence you cant blame other users if they dont trust easily.



Probably they will introduce later on a premium service and use this free service as portfolio to attract customers on there future business. This is common on this kind service provider and I don’t think any trace of scam attempt by just providing free service like this tipster.

I like there style by starting from scratch of there portfolio because we have basis if there service is good or bad in case they will provide premium service. They have a good start already, Let’s just watch for now.

I like to try this site, it does not require a KYC, so it's good for me.

Just a quick question, I'm not reading the full terms yet, so anyone explain to me what are the terms in order to withdraw the welcome bonus?

here:

Quote
Deposit Minimum 10$ Get 200$ welcome Bonus

You need to deposit through Bank API to get this bonus. You have only 3 days to complete the x5 wagering requirements before it forfeits. This offer is very good but connecting bank just to deposit on a casino is very risky especially in my country which your account might be disabled if they saw a transaction to a gambling casino. Make sureto check your bank policy regarding oline casino transaction before you claim this bonus.

You are doing the right thing. 17 is the card that you need to stand because it's the safe zone and also hitting further will give you high chance of being busted because only 4 and below cards is your success hit. Never take an insurance especially if your card is not good because you might end up losing more if the dealer hand is not Blackjack while you got busted or stand low since you are paying half of your bet for insurance.

I got it, that is why I lost more than I bet when I chose insurance.  I was confused at that time, thank you for explaining the consequences of choosing insurance.

If you are playing evolution gaming blackjack games. There is a tutorial on the menu bar on how to play blackjack. It's very easy if you have the courage to play it just for fun.

I haven't noticed the tutorial. I am the kind of person to rush on things, the "learn as the game goes" type of player. As long as it isn't that serious, I often skip tutorials coz I am too excited to play the game.  Grin.
There is a pretty nice tutorial or more precisely a free "video course" if you want to learn how to play Blackjack well, here : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5392847.0
Regarding insurance, it's usually not highly recommended to take it, as it only pays out 30% of the time according to this video from the tutorial while paying out as if odds to happen were 33.3% - 2:1 or 3.00 in decimal odds - giving a 3.3% edge to the house.

Yes, Insurance shouldn't be accept most of the time except if you have a blackjack hands to secured some profit instead of having a draw. Not taking insurance is best option If you have a regular card such as 16 or below because you will be fck up big time if the dealers hand is not a blackjack and end up having 17 to 21 because ypu already pay additional 50% of your bet for insurance fee. Taking insurance when you have Blackjack hands is an exception.

I do not encourage anyone to invest. I am just sharing my opinion with everyone. Investing is a personal matter of everyone. But i suggest them for do a better research for investing in any cryptos. because crypto investment is high risky every times

Judging by the current situation of this project and there position on there development progress, I will consider this as high risk investment or something that you shouldn't expect much return in near future once you decided to put some money on this tokens.

The competition for this kind of market is very tough while they are very slow in progress since the beginning of this project. But this token profit is worth once they manage to revive and come back to there game.

Well, even if we are now living in this new normal, I still think that the pandemic is still going on. The reason why most of the people still play online and bet on their favorite teams through online. We can’t also blame them because it’s always safety first before anything else. While some people are starting to see real games from their big stadiums, others are still doing online betting as they feel more convenient doing it at home without a need to travel far from homes.

Correct there are gamblers who will choose to play online to be safer in terms of medical condition, why bother to go offshore if there are available online, though it's more exciting and enjoyable watching live games and the crowd is really aiming to see their idols playing, but pandemic give us the situation where we all needed to adjust and understand, we are seeing openings and good recovery from the business side of gambling more games to open more bets to choose..


I believe most of the sports games is already back to normal because they are allowing now 100% capacity on every seat. Online games is just still popular because of its convenient feature which already love than betting in actual casino. I'm playing in land based casino before pandemic hits once a month but ever since pandemic limits me from moving outside, I 'm already too lazy to out side just to gamble while I can all this things in my house using my computer. Thanks to the live games that offers most of the games in the casino live.

Same here I tried the blackjack game today and I encounter, split, double, and insurance options, kinda confused because I am not a blackjack person, I tried it sometimes but that's it.  In terms of in-game knowledge, I am a newcomer to the game.  I often stand when I got 17 plus card and often times house beats me even with 19 card.  Kinda see mysefl funny during that time. I lost but the experience is fun.


You are doing the right thing. 17 is the card that you need to stand because it's the safe zone and also hitting further will give you high chance of being busted because only 4 and below cards is your success hit.

I got it, that is why I lost more than I bet when I chose insurance.  I was confused at that time, thank you for explaining the consequences of choosing insurance.
But insurance is helpful sometimes especially if you have a blackjack card while dealer has an Ace, Availing insurance will give you sure profit regardless if dealer is blackjack or not. It will just decrease your payout to 1:1 instead 2:3 when you win blackjack but its still good rather than a draw.

If you are playing evolution gaming blackjack games. There is a tutorial on the menu bar on how to play blackjack. It's very easy if you have the courage to play it just for fun.

I posted my story for everyone to see in the Scam Forum: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5407736.0
I wish I knew your story before I registered here. I played at their bookmaker only. Few days ago they voided my last bets I made on a random csgo match in live (obviously all won) and the next day they just disabled my account with $1k+ since then they completely ignore me.

https://i2.paste.pics/a6ecc91e2226fc7f4ed38d55cc77ed9d.png  awesome web 3.0 experience  Sad
This is odd, You bet on cs:go randomly and you win all the bets with huge amount?  Roll Eyes

Can you provide the detailed explanation why ypur account got banned? I know that they have problem before on there sportsbook which cheater take advantage on there system that result to an exploit. Many cheaters are cheating there web3 casino in the past. You should ask them to provide detailed report about your violation so that we can move forward if they can’t present solid evidence.
I would have won $100 or so in this match and if I remember correctly it was the only csgo match I ever bet on at their bookmaker. Because they disabled my account I can't check my betting history.

You should file a proper scam accusation thread and copy the format of @SammyGambler thread on this link https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5407736.0 so that we can compile and evaluate the issues ongoing on this 2 related casinos. It’s important to document multiple concerns and wait for there answer to resolve the issue properly. Forum user is very fair on handling case like this.

Is being on top 20 daily winners is still the requirements of the daily free spin? I forgot a lot about the rules because there is no info written on the website about this.

Nothing needed for daily free spins you only need to vote for one winner for daily competition even if you are outside the top 20

You definitely know who the user deserves to vote for, right? he is RealWinner the undefeated user , somehow he never seems to run out of funds


I believe Private User, and GOD have deployed more capital to the casino. Private User has 2357.5 mBTC wagered, and GOD has 10725 mBTC wagered for the Daily Wagering Competition. Real Winner is currently third with 1981.01 mBTC wagered.

What is Real Winner's daily average wagering volume? Did he reduce his wagering volume, or did GOD and Private User simply increase their wagering volumes?
He usually spend 1000mbtc to 5000mbtc daily except if there is a tough contender that bet against him side by side. I think Realwinner gave this daily match to GOD because he gave so much volume for today while GOD usually play just a couple of days every week. Weekly wagering contest is a different storyin case private user and GOD will contest the top spot.

Maybe you are right, RW sometimes feel bored when there is no one competing to him that’s why he make us lose on the daily vote winner. He maybe vote to God himself! Hahaha..

Seriously, God wager volume today exceeds RW's typical daily wager volume. RW is not dumb to contest user that already spend huge capital just to get the daily prize which is smaller than the potential huge loss that he can get by wagering that huge amount.
