oh, only 2 winners is quite competitive
I remember other contests had at least 2 winners in each category
That's true. In previous contest there are only 2 winners for each category hence it's quite competitive especially if many entries are submitted for the specific category. Only the best will be chosen so it's not really easy to win.

so can't we expect at least one winner in each category?
For each category there can be 1-4 winners depending on the number of submission. Good thing now there's a consolation prize (free spins) for those eligible participants and didn't made it to be on the list of winners.

Anyway, this is the last day of submission so post your artworks now before it's too late.
862  Economy / Gambling / Re: is KYC data on Gambling sites safe? on: May 31, 2023, 04:56:25 AM
As we know, many gambling sites have Kyc requirements when making withdrawals. Some people may not have a problem with this condition, but some people think differently about doing Kyc. Some people refuse to fill in their Kyc data for fear of being misused. That's a natural thing, but is the worry too much?
It's understandable to be worried because it's not really safe to disclose your identity to any platform regardless how reputable or how high their security is. Data breach can happen that can exposed our information and worst be used on illegal activities.

Are you one of those who agree or refuse to fill out kyc on gambling sites? So far, the Kyc that you have filled in on the gambling site is safe? I've never had a problem with the Kyc that I filled out at the gambling site. Have you ever felt cheated from Kyc submitted?
As much as possible I don't want to gamble on casino that requiring their players to abide on kyc procedure. But if really necessary, let's say you have huge winnings and kyc is needed then I have no choice. However, it depends on the gambler itself if he will risk his/her personal information to withdraw the money. Nowadays kyc is common for casinos to ask their gamblers especially if the platform is regulated since they're just abiding the law to operate legally. If you're not comfortable with this, there's still option since there are casinos existing without kyc requirement.

One more thing, the most important thing is to change the mindset because this is one of the most common mistakes that most people make when investing in bitcoin hoping to get rich quick and end up disappointed when the market goes down.

This is a rookie mistake, people who thinks bitcoin is some quick rich investment will fall for big loses and later they blame bitcoin for that. Bitcoin is a long term investment, it is not for people who wants to get rich quickly or even get rich by investing a small amount of money. If you want to get rich from bitcoin you have to be a consistent bitcoin investor.
Investors who are thinking Bitcoin can make them rich in a short period probably didn't exert an effort to understand how Bitcoin works. Because if you take time learning first before investing your money, you'll understand that it's a kind of investment that needs patience since it's good for long term, that is if you really want to gain huge.

Anyway as you've pointed out, you need to be a consistent Bitcoin investor in order to have a decent holdings. It doesn't matter even you're buying little by little, what matter is, it has consistency. It's a good strategy, you won't notice your Bitcoin is growing while not hurting your finances since you only allocate a small amount.
864  Economy / Gambling / Re: Using ToS against users normal? on: May 30, 2023, 11:16:17 AM
Changing of terms and conditions without notifying the users or gamblers is normal with online gambling websites? Then when you did something wrong or about to withdraw your money they will tell you that you don't read their terms and conditions, and you start arguing with them until you decide to read the ToS again and you find out that it's different.

Some gambling websites consist of wicked owners that willingly plan to defraud their users using the ToS against them, or is this normal? Have such happened to anyone on this forum before?
Before we play on a casino it's important to read their ToS to know their rules and to prevent violating any of it. Well, the casino has the right to change their rules if necessary. However if they changed any of their rules, they need to notify their players to become aware of these changes. So the gambler can decide if they want to continue playing or switch to other casino because he/she is not comfortable with the added rules.

If the casino use these changes to defraud their players without notifying them after the changes are made then clearly it's not fair. I would be discourage to play on the particular casino if such issue happened.
865  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will You Allow To Undergo Hypnosis If A Professional Recommend To Cure Gambling on: May 30, 2023, 09:59:03 AM
You want to get cured of compulsive gambling because you are too deep into it and you are under professional supervision to cure your addiction, your physician asks you to undergo hypnosis to cure your deep-rooted addiction, will you allow it
If the physician already recommend to undergo this procedure then it might be necessary and can be a big help to cure the addiction. However, we know it's not going to be cheap, seeking for professional help to get rid your addiction is expensive already so this additional process is another pain if you're not prepared financially.

Anyway, to answer the question, I believe if you want to overcome your addiction, you really need to help yourself to change what you used to aside from the guidance of a professional people. That being said, if you're willing to change and determine to get rid your addiction then a support of your loved ones plus your willingness would be a great help to overcome the problem that you've been going through.

Marahil isa ka sa umabot sa 60k+ usdt price ng bitcoin, or maari isa kadin sa mga naluge sa pagbagsak nito sa mga nakaraang buwan akyat baba ang presyo ng bitcoin madami din ang mga kumita subalit marami din ang mga naluge anu nga ba ang mga dahilan sa pagbagsak nito?
Usually naman na dahilan kung bakit bumaba ang price ay dahil sa mga nagbebenta kapag umangat ng konti ang Bitcoin, sila yung mga nag short term. Kaya hindi rin nagiging consistent ang pagtaas dahil dito. Tapos yung iba naman kapag bumaba eh nagpa panic at takot na malugi kaya binebenta na lang, common ito sa mga baguhan.

Anyway, yung good news tungkol sa balita na sinabi mo, malaking bagay pa rin sa crypto as a whole pero yung impact hindi ganun karamdam. Hindi pa talaga siguro tapos ang bear season. Kaya hold lang muna tayo, in time, darating din yung pinaka inaasam natin.
867  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: NFT OR MEMES on: May 30, 2023, 05:03:58 AM
these two investment only suited for short term, with meme coin if you invested for long term, eventually the price will fall down, and with NFT it will lost liquidity instead, making it quite literally useless.
So better not to invest on these two because it is quite risky. However, if you're fine with the risk and still wanted to try investing then my choice is meme coins. I'm tempted as well to try investing on meme before, because of the potential profit, however this is only for short term. But one must be alert and know when to take profit and that is once the price already skyrocket. If you missed the time to sell, you'll lose your money, the next thing you'll know the price plunged already. The reason why it's risky to invest in meme coins.

Anyway, many coins are worth to invest in with real use case hence your options are not only limited to NFTs and meme coins. Just DYOR and you'll find a coins that are worthy to hold even for long term.
868  Economy / Gambling / Re: Is this considered a safe practice on: May 29, 2023, 08:22:58 AM
You are absolutely correct. It's crucial to exercise caution when providing your credit card details to any platform or service, particularly online. There are some very basic precautions that you need to take, such as checking the SSL and security information, make sure that you trust the payment platform and do not pass the data directly to the site. Even being very careful is easy to fall for scams.
same reason why we not need to let our credit cards involved in gambling , because this is for me is over acting to gamble .
we have money or cash that can be used then why need to extend the usage to our credit cards?
also what you mentioned is completely correct , there are easy way for them to scam us using our credit cards.
sometimes even if we are dealing with legit and trusted sites , yet the chance of being scammed are there .
It is likely that gambling companies are looking to create an opportunity to extract more money from a gambler. When a gambler starts gambling with a credit card he can plan to spend a lot of money on gambling. Because once addiction to gambling occurs, it is difficult to recover from it. But the main point is that a gambler can be exposed to various dangers. First, his personal affairs will be at risk. Second, scammers have a greater chance of falling into the trap. I agree with you that it is not worthy to use a credit card on any site that would be reputed or not.

Well, if you want to take advantage the perks of using your credit cards to be able to gamble, there's nothing wrong with that since it's your choice. However, I don't think it is wise to use credit cards regardless of the rewards/bonuses you can get associated with it. Because we can always opt to use our cash, more safety since you don't have to disclose any details.

Scammers and hacking are common nowadays even the platform is reputable (as you've pointed out). Thus much better to think in advance of the cons to prevent yourself experiencing an unfortunate situation.
869  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A Nigerian Father Rejects Son's Gambling Win on: May 29, 2023, 04:55:25 AM
Gambling is a problem but if you already got the money that you won why not take advantage of it. Especially if you need the money badly. I dont understand this kind of people,yes you need to make a point that gambling is bad and that you should avoid gambling but if you already won you should take advantage of it.
but his father had different thoughts because the religious principles his father adhered to made his thoughts different from the wishes of his son. even though news spread that his son wanted to use the money from gambling to help pay for the rent he had to pay for the house, the father remained adamant that the money from gambling was not good.
Money is everything for most of us and we know it's hard to earn it. So if there's an opportunity to have such huge amount, probably no one will refuse to accept the money (as long as it is not from any illegal activity).

But it's a different situation for the boy's father because he don't like the fact that his son got the money through gambling. It's a commendable attitude to reject the money (despite of what it can do for their lives) because of what he believe in. I wonder what the son did after his father made a decision.

Betting then experienced losing in a row is part of it, I mean, losing streak is not new to this industry, you need to do better with your research instead of randomly pick sports that you are not familiar, something that really needed to correct, how will you win if you don't know who's your betting with? with knowledge and with proper information or idea, the chance of winning is much better and adding to that if you have some luck the opportunity to win will be more possible, just take it when you already have some decent amount, I mean quit while you have something decent in your wallet.

Even with doing a proper research, you can still have 10 losses in a times, but it also depends what kind of bets it are (single bets, parlay bets, ...). I don't bet that often anymore on sports, but I try to look for value bets. Sometimes you have good streaks that everything is going your way and other times not. Just keep track of everything that you bet and only at the end of the year, you should look at your return on investment.

Yeah, and that's right even doing proper research can't guarantee that you will not suffer from a long losing streak, if luck is not on your side you might suffer more even you have a knowledge regarding to the game, what I'm just referring to is the game that you are betting with, if you pick it randomly and you don't understand the game the chance of losing is high compared with the game that you know and the player/s that are playing is familiar with you, you can sort the advantages and you can decide according to your knowledge.

If you want to maximize your chance to win the game (for skill-based games) then it's important that you have knowledge about it. This way, you'll not just place your bet blindly. But you're doing it because you have an idea about the team/players to somehow predict what likely is the outcome of the particular game, and this is based on your knowledge.

That's the edge of betting with an idea of the background of the team. So don't just guess if you can do something to become aware of the possible results based on the capabilities of the players/team.
871  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Your favorite season to trade cryptocurrency? on: May 29, 2023, 01:14:01 AM
Bull season is the perfect time to trade our cryptos because during this time majority of coins are increasing so it's a good timing to take profit. On the other side, the bear season is the time for us to fill our bags since the prices of coins are cheaper. Traders who already used to seeing the market to go up and down are already aware how to take advantage every situation for their own benefit.

Hence, it's crucial for traders to study the market and take time filling their minds with knowledge to understand trading. This is necessary in order to spot a good coins that can likely give you a huge profit.

873  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Never Expect Consistent Winnings From Gambling - A Lesson I Learnt. on: May 28, 2023, 10:08:38 AM
Uncertainty and risks ups and downs are part of life and go in gambling there is no surety of your winning 💯 times .
So while going for that prepare yourself for the losses too and don't get depressed over anything.  This is like a game for fun time you can win and you can loose anytime .

If people thought that way, we wouldn't see them getting addicted to gambling. But sadly, they play gambling to try to make money which will not work. Well, it may work for a minority of people but others will only lose and will not be able to recover their losses. There is no guarantee of winning. That's what we must remember because gambling is just for fun and doesn't make it a place to make money. And if people could stop themselves from gambling, they would see how much money they could save. So we can't expect continuous wins from gambling so we can only use gambling for fun.
It's quite easy to say to just gamble for fun, but the truth is, majority of gamblers are playing to win and have a decent profit. The reason why many people are getting interested to try gambling because of the huge win that some gamblers won through playing. Well, it's your own money so you can do what you want. However let's always keep in mind that gambling is a game of luck and a gambler should know the risk before playing to have less expectation.

Nevertheless, just like what stated in op, why do we have to learn from our own mistake if we can learn from other mistakes so we can prevent ourselves committing such. It's a good point and can be applied in gambling so we can prevent ourselves becoming addicted due to lack of control and the wrong thinking that gambling can give a consistent profit.
874  Economy / Gambling / Re: ▄■▀■▄ 🌟BITVEST.io🌟 💰WIN BY 🔶PLAY 📈INVEST➡🔺🎲🎰🔲 | BET CONTEST ▄■▀■▄ on: May 28, 2023, 07:50:03 AM
What if by tomorrow, the casino website is no longer accessible to everyone, and you have money in there, who are you going to reach out to to know what's going on.?
Is there any guarantee that you can always profit from gambling and withdraw money with your deposits? this you can never guarantee but you will try to always win the gamble. likewise, I try to always gamble at trusted and reputable casino sites to keep my winnings safe. so in that case, if the site I use goes down at any time and I have money there, I'll leave it as my bad luck. because I never keep large amounts of money on gambling sites.

So technically we are risking our money in two ways. First gambling is a risk in itself as we can also lose money. In case we survive and win a bet or a game in gambling, our funds are still at risk if stored on a centralized gambling platform and that platform scam exits somehow.

This will not happen daily but as a safe side, we should only keep limited funds in gambling site with which we need to play with. Any excessive winning amount or not used gambling funds should be withdrawn to our personal wallets. Of course we can always deposit more money when we know that we have to gamble.
Well, if you gamble your money there's a high possibility to lose it since most games are luck-based. However the second reasoning about a platform might scammed us will depends on your judgement on where you'll going to play. Of course if you choose a trusted casino and has an active representative here to attend to any issues then that would be even better.

Anyway, regardless where you gamble its just right to only use a money that you can live without. So incase you didn't win or got scammed, it's not that hard to accept it.
875  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why choosing instant withdrawal casinos on: May 28, 2023, 04:55:26 AM
I had an experience that made me think about why everyone should choose instant withdrawal casinos I’m sure there are many reasons for that but for my experience where i was gambling in a not instant withdrawal casino.
I played some slots and won good amount of money so i requested to withdraw all of it right away. After 24 hours my orders still pending so i contacted the support to cancel the request ( which was so dumb from me Xd).
After playing again i lost all that balance and i was thinking if i was in an instant withdrawal casino this scenario wouldn’t happen even that it was totally my fault ( and please no need to mention that again )

In your opinion why you should choose instant withdrawal casino instead of regular ones that can take days to receive your winnings?
Why it took them so long to process your withdrawal? I'm mostly play on casinos that have not instant withdrawal but I have no issues because after few minutes (hours are already long) it is already processed. Though, it is not much amount.

Anyway, it's really good if the casino has instant withdrawal because you'll never get worried that it might not processed. Moreover you'll not be tempted to cancel it (because you're losing your patience) and continue to gamble instead just like what happened to you. For whale gamblers choosing a casino with an instant withdrawal feature is an advantage. But for an average gambler like me, it's not a big deal since I only use small amount to play and I know the casino where I usually gamble is reputable.
876  Economy / Gambling / Re: Gambling is a choice. on: May 28, 2023, 03:18:45 AM
I'm a bit surprised by the replies of some members who say that you should leace the casino as soon as you make some profit. This is a bit absurd because what gamblers usually want is to have fun not to make a profit. Besides, according to their reasoning, you are at profit if you don't gamble, so my question is: why do you waste your time and money on an activity that you don't even like and exercising it would, most of the times, result in you losing money?
Well, I would rather say that you speak for yourself and not the gamblers in general, I can tell you for sure that, most gambler today, and in the game to make money, and not to have fun, even though gambling was initially designed to be a fun activity for loyal sports fans and fellowers, but it's rather unfortunate that today, more than 90 percent of gamblers now see gambling as a money making adventure, this is one of the reasons we have several several numbers of addicted.
Many gamblers as well started to play to have fun but that changed after experiencing to win/lose because of their emotions and lack of control to only play in moderation. This is the reason why you must be prepared for the consequences if you decided to gamble your money since it's very likely that you'll lose it rather than to profit. Thus, don't gamble if your desire is to double your money in snap because even it is possible, majority of gamblers are losing and you might be one of them.

It's still wise to gamble because you just want to have fun, just shows you're not after winning huge but your main desire is to entertain yourself. Remember that regrets are always in the end so think twice before playing.
877  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you been threaten to stop gambling on: May 28, 2023, 02:12:53 AM
I guess that blew her patience for not telling his winning, so he threaten that he should stop gambling or they part ways, my friend choose his wife so he cannot play until he can convince his wife and promise her to tell her if he won big. Cheesy

How about you have you been threatened by your wife, your girlfriend, or your parents, if so tell us your story.
Is your friend working? Because if he is, I don't think it's an issue to be a gambler, as long as he can provide the needs of his family. His mistake is, he's not open to his wife and chose to keep his gambling activity and worse he had the chance to win huge but didn't tell anything. It's important in a relationship that you're open to each other, because you already have a better half so every decision that you'll made (as a sign of respect) your husband/wife must be aware of it.

Fortunately I am not threaten yet by anyone because of gambling. But in the past even I have a history of being a compulsive gambler, i'm the one who decided to stop playing and not because i'm threaten. My family just supported me until I overcome that chapter.

Your respond to your uncle is very good but next time try to behave like your elder brother that had being into Bitcoin investment without allow anybody from the family aware of it which is the best way to achieve success easily. I believe, with time your uncle will definitely join you in Bitcoin investment because what is about to happen in the market it will make those that invested some years ago to win something big from Bitcoin investment and your uncle will now remember the good step you took to invested in Bitcoin years back. Bitcoin will not fail than to fulfill the purpose it was created to help people to grow financially and be confidence in their transaction.
Well, it's common that some member of the family disagreed to our personal decision since we can't please everyone. Especially if they only have little understanding and not aware of the significance why it is worth it to invest in Bitcoin. Sometimes it's better to keep mum about your investment, though there's nothing wrong if you chose to share it within the family members.

What matter is you know that what your uncle think towards Bitcoin is just a misunderstanding. So don't take it seriously and just ignore it, because in time you can prove him wrong once you gain in your investment.
879  Economy / Economics / Re: Would you consider moving abroad? on: May 26, 2023, 07:13:16 AM
So yes, would you consider moving abroad for a better future? Would you try to find a way to stay in your country, either through online work or by accessing all possible opportunities?
I'd like to go abroad to have a better opportunities. Because it means you can earn high salary and you can save for the future knowing the currency of other countries if you exchange in our local currency is high. Many people here who opted to work overseas had a successful journey, the usual is they're able to build a nice home that is hard to achieve if you only work here in our country especially if you're not a degree holder and just a minimum wage earner. Thus, it's not surprising why many of our countrymen decided to work far from their family to give them a better future.

In my case, even I want to work abroad, my concern is my kids because no one will take care of them. Thus, i'm striving and grabbing every opportunites that comes my way in order to maximize my income.

Next year will be my first bull run and have just been thinking about what will be best to do when it finally arrives next year.
It's not certain yet, though many of us are anticipating that next year would be the next bullrun because of halving.

Do you plan on just holding till an amount you are happy with or is it a good idea to try and trade altcoins whilst they are pumping to earn even more?
It depends on your plan. You can trade if you think it is already worth it or still hold if you have price in mind on when to sell your alts. As for me I have set target price when to take profit so if i'm happy with the result then it's time to sell.
