701  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cockfighting? on: September 10, 2023, 11:58:28 PM
To my knowledge there is no such crypto casino where cockfighting is legal and people play in one.
Yes, there's none since I don't see one that has this type of betting and if there's one, prolly missed it.

I've heard before that cockfighting has been banned from casinos mainly because it's illegal.
Not just illegal but also unethical but those that has it, it's just all about the culture and history that has been passed onto them.

Most of the countries of the world have banned this cockfighting from the judiciary. Now I can't say whether this cockfighting is practiced in any casino but it is probably not very small. But banning the cockfighting game from casinos entirely is because it can be risky if people try to create and play it. So I think one should not take such a risk where there are many casino platforms that have a lot of games and it would be better to bet on them. Now it is better not to play this type of cock fighting game and who may not know if there are any casinos where cock fighting bets are placed as far as I know.
To those places that have practiced this, mostly they're not an actual casino. They're just like a one-day setup betting local place and then after the event, they're all gone after all.

My cousin and I used to play that but I don't know how to play it, I think it's a good option to teach your nephews about its economy and building wealth.

Things are simpler and easier to understand when it's been taught through games like this. They will have the understanding that this is the type of the market and economy that we're having.

They will just have to enjoy the flow of the game and it's up to them to realize that the game itself has got its purpose.
703  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How does an online Foodbetting site sound? on: September 09, 2023, 10:08:37 PM
What other funny and real betting exist like this you know of?
Not funny but odd things like betting about slap competition.

Would you try it out if you had the chance and resources to?
I probably would as I do watch people that likes to it but it might be a different setup if it's about food eating competition.

What are your thoughts on the concept and initiative behind this idea.? Is it worth investing time and resources in?
Maybe for entertainment, yes. But if you do not enjoy watching this and you're just new to it, you can check yourself if you're into it.

Can we classify this betting on food eaters on who eats more or less within a time frame, as a sport?
It's subjective to each who sees it. But most of the competitions that are on this eating challenges are more with who's quick to eat within a give period of time.

I guess aside from being aware of the sim attacks, the platforms should also enforce that they should force their users to use other way of 2FA aside from SMS.

Since the proliferation of this attack, an alternative is much better and that's through email and as well as the usage of the 2FA apps.

Just last night, someone called me out of nowhere and has got my number offering me a job but it was an obvious scam job. So, in theory, that these hackers can be everywhere and have the source of our numbers so it's easy for them to penetrate and attack random people and if they're lucky enough, if the sim card that they're able to copy was used for transactions in banking and crypto, that's where the danger is.
705  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Give Him a loan Or Partner With Him on: September 08, 2023, 04:22:06 PM
This scene is like always the breaker of relationships especially with friendships and relatives. What you can do if you really want to help him, it's either don't give any amount at all or just give him some relatively amount which isn't that much and not a total loss for you if ever he won't pay.

In that sense, you're able to help him and you have also satisfied yourself of helping him. That's the choice that you can do but if you're okay lending him money knowing all of his backgrounds, that's your problem later on when he's got no money to pay you.
706  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ESports betting -CS:GO, DOTA 2, LOL, Valorant - Sportsbet.io discussion thread on: September 08, 2023, 02:46:32 PM
I guess the rumors are true because yesterday, Tundra announced that Saksa has to take a break because of his health and will be benched from the active roster. I hope he can recover from his mental health issue this time and bounce back in the next DPC season.

That means the Topson announcement might be the next thing we're looking forward to since Gorgc leaked his friends list on stream and Topson was found playing with the rest of Tundra's squad.

Wow, Tundra has officially unveiled Topson as a player ahead of The International 2023  Roll Eyes
Nice, good to know that Topson will be playing on this TI. I guess he's the luckiest player ever and I think that Tundra has to choose between him and ana.

He have replaced Saksa in the lineup. You remember that he won the international 2 times with OG. I hope he doesn't have any health problems. Anyway, I will watch his game with great interest. Tundra had odds of 5.3 to win on TI 12, I wonder how the bookmakers will change it now
While he replaced Saksa, he's not going to play the role that he replaced. But instead, it's going to be Nine that shall play position 4 and then Topson stays at position 2.

I think that this is a dangerous team on the TI. I just hope that it won't break the expectation of the majority. Remember that a good player that has transitioned into a support basically is going to be better than it.

I recommend you checking the Overview of Bitcointalk Signature Anti-Spam Campaign Managers.

I personally recommend Hhampuz as he's the one managing the campaign that I am currently in. Also, yahoo is another campaign manager that has managed a lot of campaigns and known doing this stuff.

Both of them are good and can do the job well done, check their threads on that link together with the other managers as well for the rates and negotiations.

While it is Vitalik who became the face of Ethereum, it's not just only him that works on it. As per Ethereum's foundation, there goes its own community and as well as the dev that will take over if then, whatever happens.

I don't see the end game on it and despite that PoS isn't really what mostly like. This change has been already adopted by the majority.

I can compare Litecoin's Charlie Lee that has dumped all his holdings on it and then it is still going on, alive until now.
709  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Learning from those who have experience on: September 07, 2023, 02:34:27 PM
It is a nice method and really could work. Looking for some distractions so that you won't be able to gamble is a strategy that can work for the most.

But for someone who can't do it, I don't know what to think about them. When you're taking your time doing it and some activities is eating up your time, you'll eventually forget to gamble and even your addiction.
We have to do diversification so that our minds are not always thinking about gambling. That's what I did to take my mind off gambling. At least it worked for me and now I don't think about gambling too often because I realized that there is a lot I can do besides just gambling.

Maybe they can do different things and not just sit idly by because that can make our minds go back to thinking about gambling. We have to actively do whatever we want and without procrastinating so that no time is wasted just sitting still. You can try it if you want.
It worked for you so it could and couldn't work for the others. But, I agree to what you've said that we have to spend our time in many things so that you'll get busy and you'll forget gambling.

Just catch up with other things that you have probably forgotten to do and that will force you to focus on it and then forget gambling later on.

The management of your time is important to help you overcome it. Those that have been strongly-willed are able to win over their addiction.
710  Economy / Gambling / Re: COINS.GAME | THE MOST REWARDING CRYPTO CASINO on: September 07, 2023, 12:38:35 PM
Welcome to the forum and I've seen that you recently launched a campaign with Littl mouse. Good luck with your marketing and having that claim of being the most rewarding.

It may not that be easy.

On the other hand, in order to be able to claim that yours is "the most rewarding crypto casino" you should prove that it is true; otherwise, the claim might be considered misleading.
We'll see if they'll be able to do that but anyway, it seems that the representative is very active on this thread and that's a good sign.  Smiley
711  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Learning from those who have experience on: September 06, 2023, 09:54:12 PM
Maybe I have experienced a gambling addiction, but it seems like the gambling addiction I experienced is not yet a serious gambling addiction.
Serious or not, as long as you've been addicted in gambling, that's all that matters.

The method I use is only by reducing gambling activity and trying to form new habits that are different from usual for a while, maybe more than 1 month, I can distract myself from thinking about gambling.
It is a nice method and really could work. Looking for some distractions so that you won't be able to gamble is a strategy that can work for the most.

712  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Don't look for investment, just hodle! on: September 06, 2023, 04:48:01 PM
Holding Bitcoin is just another investment. And to those people that are looking for another investment, it's normal to look for another one because all we want to do is to maximize the use of our money as a tool to generate more money.

While I agree that buying and holding Bitcoin is the best choice. But, there can be other options that the same Bitcoin holders can do as long as they know what they're doing.

The advise is typically good and a warning to those that don't know what they're doing and quickly buying anything that's suggested to them, especially the altcoins that are just randomly suggested.
713  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Impact of Blockchain on: September 06, 2023, 03:35:27 PM
Are there any other sectors that you believe blockchain technology will be of use in?
Mostly in every sector and industry, blockchain can be applied and be used. But it's just so happen that there are a lot of them that sees not needing for them being applied to their business.

Because they've been used to the traditional system, they don't see any application on it to make their business better. Anyway, you can think of anything, as in any industry where it can be useful.
714  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How will you feel if it happens to you just like this? on: September 05, 2023, 07:29:06 PM
It happened to me many times but not money that can change my life, One of the things that you should learn from gambling is how to let go, one of the hardest things that are hard to let go is you already won a big amount of money but you want to extend your lucky streak and by doing so you eventually lose everything you've won because you are chasing your big winning.
I agree, letting go is a must even if you're at that closest moment of your life that match you're wanting to bet has got assurance that your analysis is good and accurate but you don't have money.

Whether you've got funds or don't have, as long as you know what you're doing then don't stick to that feeling because that's hard to battle when you keep dwelling on it.

The adrenaline rush is something that is hard to keep.
True, you just have to enjoy it and even you're not be able to bet with that match, let go of it.
715  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Free Withdrawals Exchanges on: September 05, 2023, 01:42:52 PM
While it's such a good incentive when an exchange allows free withdrawal and just as what FTX did. Because I have seen exchanges, the unpopular ones of having crazy BTC withdrawal fees but with altcoins, they're not that expensive at all.

However, I agree with rikafp about it that it could have been a tactic of theirs and just getting the rapport with its users before it has finally activated its plan to get doomed.

Well, it's really missing when you get used to it but what's good today is that we already have an idea on how an exchange plays to be a sheep before it transforms into a wolf.
716  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Half of the People in Turkey Now Own Crypto on: September 05, 2023, 12:04:56 PM
While we just hear that adoption is growing vastly to a specific location like Turkey per se but the study should have a concrete and accurate detail about it.

But with what many are noticing from countries that are dealing with high inflation, most of the are really looking for ways to defeat it and one of it is to use crypto.

Data may be inaccurate or accurate but, it is nowhere to go but also with that adoption growth sooner or later.
717  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Scammers won't mind kicking those who are already down on: September 04, 2023, 09:14:36 AM
Scammers taking advantage of other scammers debacle. This is not new on this space as anything that they can take advantage of, they will.

It's always best to be curious with the emails that you receive and if you can't remember if you signed up for it and then receiving is suspicious, much better not to attend to that email and put it in the trash can.

While, these attempts can get some newbies thinking that they are for real because when I was still new, I've got this type of attempt and almost fell for it.
718  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Nothing compares to BITCOIN, know this and know peace on: September 04, 2023, 07:27:01 AM
Beginners, if I were you I would be less worried about Bitcoin, it's proven already, and I will be more worried about others, the journey of making money through Alts is full of thorns, stay safe out there.
They will never understand this.
The cryptospace is largely moved by trust as not many things are easily or could be verified. Most turns out to be written promises just to draw more investors into picking a package or investing in their project. Often, this turns out to be a wrong move to most. No thought there are those that benefits from the introduction of new projects but, the profits is always on the project team.
They truly were, those written promises are what's the catchy part of these projects that goes into this market and offers their capability of whatever product they're introducing.

But most likely, they don't really have the product but what they're offering are the tokens that are just reinvented for some of its features that they don't see in other projects.

Bitcoin happens to be the safe zone for newbie investors in the cryptospace although, you’ve got to be well disciplined and equipped with a great amount of patience not yo be moved by the FUD that drags the market most times.
Many might prefer altcoins because it’s relatively cheap and if you’re lucky, you could make over 1000x on your investment but is it always the case? You guys know better from experience and with that, you know where to direct your investment funds.
Even if we tell them for so many times that they should start investing in BTC, they won't obey that because they think they know better already not until they experience the worst of having to dump those wrong tokens they invest.
719  Economy / Gambling / Re: Concept of Halal Casino on: September 04, 2023, 02:25:28 AM
Well, if something goes too deep with this then it is not surprising. It's better not to practice or touch or get into the boundaries of beliefs that are against gambling and religion.

But as what others have said, this is not for real and the video maker did a good job for making everyone curious if there's one really in existence and as well as with the help of OP.

I wonder if something like that exists for real, will the leaders of the Islam will sue the developers of it.
720  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Possible measures to stop online gambling addiction. on: September 03, 2023, 11:50:26 PM
honestly, there are lots of ways to achieve those goals and you don't seem to find it in playing the whole day and night on your computer especially when you win once and you lose thrice.
Yup, what you'll find doing that is more motivation to keep on going. If someone has got to stop, he had probably done as many methods as he can.

But despite that, the discipline should be there and the initiative that your will to stop must be firm. Because when you have those, no matter how tempting it is to gamble, you'll find ways to abstain from it.
