If it is the local culture that requires us to gamble, I guess it will be okay because the local government itself will allow it.
And as long as we don't break the rules of gambling games which are local culture, I think we can still enjoy it.
Maybe it was held in some countries while those of us who don't live in that country would find it absurd.
But then again, it is their culture that is different from ours.
Maybe you can visit that place to take part in the gambling game Grin
1642  Economy / Speculation / Re: Short Term Bitcoin Targets on: July 20, 2022, 09:54:10 AM
If we talk about short term bitcoin targets, it could have a chance to reach $24k-$25k because the price now is at $23k which is more positive than yesterday.
But I am not sure if in the next month, the price can be at $29k as that is not easy to break every high price wall and that means, bitcoin needs more support from outside.
If in the next 10 days, bitcoin movements can be good and different than before, bitcoin will have the opportunity to back to $25k first and then the price can try to increase step by step to $29k.
The chart can say many things, but we need to check on what happened to the market and decide what we need to do.
1643  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can change of environment have an effect on gambling addiction. on: July 20, 2022, 08:31:41 AM
But in this case there are also other factors that must be considered because when the environment changes but the factor of the closest person is still doing it, it will be the same.
When someone wants to stop their addiction to gambling, apart from the environment, they must also forget about people who can make them return to gambling because it will seem futile if they move to a new environment but still hang out with people who are still gambling.
In this case, awareness is needed from the people when he is in a new environment so that he will not return to his former place and return to the casino.
It is indeed difficult for people to change the habits they have been doing for some time and it takes courage to make one step change.
If he can do it, everything must be worth what he does because then, he can leave his habit of gambling and he can also make a new habit that has nothing to do with gambling.
Forgetting gambling is hard and one must have a strong desire to change it.
1644  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What Type of Gambler Am I? on: July 20, 2022, 04:48:46 AM
I can't see an option. - bad gambler.
I am a bad gambler -I have lost so much money in gambling and in lending - people have fooled me like crazy. I repent on being misused by the people.
The results you get are not bad because not everyone can gamble well but you get results like this so what you have to pay attention to is the way you trade and you should be able to learn it as much as possible, noting all the steps you take with the results you get after that you can summarize everything and study it as much as possible you can find a way to get a loophole in the gambling place to be able to make a profit so you will not lose again.
What he had to pay attention to was how he could reduce his gambling activity since he had already admitted that he had already lost so much money in gambling and borrowed money.
I don't think he's alone because many of us have been through it and here, he needs to take care of himself and really regret doing it.
Gambling is not a way to make money but we can experience big losses.
So only reducing time and money might help us all.
1645  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Threshold of Loss in Gambling on: July 20, 2022, 03:44:49 AM

Gambling to me is like going to a movie theater and watching a movie. Do I have a strategy to "recover from all those losses", I mean, the money spent on movie tickets? No. I think, no one does. The only difference between playing slots and going to movies is that accidentally you can earn thousands times your bet with the former. But "accidentally" is the keyword here. You can't, and you shouldn't, count on it.

Having this kind of attitude to gambling is what it really requires to play the game and whatever is the outcome you will be happy with it and not break yourself down because of losses. There are many examples that gambling losses should be made for losses to learn from. What about money spent on frivolous things or products bought and stolen or not received after they are bought. If we keep dwelling in the losses from gambling, we may end up with heart attacks , it is suppose to be fun game.
But unfortunately, many of us don't learn from the losses we've had and instead continue to gamble and this time, they use more money so their losses are even bigger.
Indeed there are times when they can get big wins but if they compare it to the amount of money they have used, it will still be more than the amount of their losses.
But if we use gambling as a place to release tension after daily activities and don't think about losses and can manage how much money we use, we will find gambling as a medium to get pleasure.
That's why it's important to manage the amount of spending that we use to gamble so that we won't feel too sad if we lose.
1646  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: The right time to invest on: July 19, 2022, 09:10:47 AM
As a newbie one finds it difficult to know the right time to invest. I really want to know if I can actually invest into Bitcoin at this moment.
I admit that it is right to know the time to invest but maybe you can start investing when the market gets correction because that means the price will go down and sometimes, the price will fall to the lowest price.
Right now, you should wait for a while as the price gets a good position but the red candle appear on the market, which means you can start to analyze to find the time to invest.
The other suggestion is you can buy from a small amount and buy it at a low price and not use too big money to invest.
But you can invest right now if you want but be careful because we do not know if the price will still go down or up.
1647  Economy / Economics / Re: Avoid loan apps, a word of advice. on: July 19, 2022, 08:02:11 AM
This loan application sharks are scattered all over different android application ads. Mostly in free applications that requires internet to play the game, use the app, or any kind of service. Good suggestion, avoid them. It would be a lot better to just go directly with private banks and take the loan there than this unknown application which we don't know if are credible. It may also be possible they are running a scam business and your government don't know a thing about it. You will have more problems if that is the case when bad things occur.

Those apps have hit the psychology of borrowers, if you go to the bank to loan money, it needs a lot of paperwork and costs to pay before they accept to lend us. In contrast, in loan apps the procedure is quick, with just a few simple steps then you have the amount you need to loan in your account. It is because of this psychological loophole that many people have fallen into the trap of these ghost apps.
But people will never know the risks of borrowing money through the app because they never meet face to face.
By registering through the application, they will not read too much about the terms and conditions that apply to the online loan application.
And this is what makes many people fall into the trap of that application because if that person is late paying each month, they have to pay a hefty fine.
And they even have to repay the loan in large amounts later.
It is better to avoid this loan application and as much as possible, not to borrow from any party, including your bank.
1648  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Discussion] Should Gambling be Banned? on: July 19, 2022, 07:06:21 AM
And it evolved so much that there are governments willing to accept gambling with regulations. But as far as online, it will be hard to stop it totally. Gamblers are so adaptive that they will always find loopholes and exploits and maybe circumvent the ban by their government.
Yes, we have proven it by looking for casino sites where we can play and even though our country forbids its citizens to play gambling, we can still find ways to visit that casino sites and play there.
The ban from the government on gambling does not seem too strict for those from countries that prohibit gambling because facilities such as VPNs can help gamblers play gambling on well-known casino sites.
And this seems to make regulations from the government need to be revised and maybe there will be new regulations limiting gamblers from playing on online casino sites.
But as long as we can still find that loophole and use it for us, it won't be a problem for us but it's just that we need to be careful in playing gambling.
1649  Economy / Gambling / Re: hello Players!! on: July 19, 2022, 06:05:10 AM
As i see the OP decided to stop the project. I don`t see any changes till the thread was created. And no any activity from the OP.
And i think this is a right decision. The casino looks simple enough and slow, i don`t believe that it can attract gamblers from the others trusted casinos.
It’s actually sad to see developer stop their project with a lot of potential, as we can see OP is asking for possible improvements and that’s a good one to asked the public about their thoughts and suggestions. Looking forward for this project, and maybe a big comeback. Let’s be more open to give feedbacks because this can be a big help especially for the start up.

They have their reasons though, in every facets of business, it's really hard to just stop something that you have been passionate as this is what I interpret from the OP himself  Anyhow, we have more options right now, dice, card cards, slots machines in other well-known and reputable online casinos.
The @OP should be able to come back and explain to us what they've done and what suggestions they've implemented for their website so we can see the progress on their site.
If they don't come back or there's no further news, it will be very unfortunate because we will see the developer stop the project before it can run properly.
But indeed, they must have their own reasons and we will never know the reason.
So maybe we can stick with other well-known online casinos while waiting for further news from @OP.
1650  Economy / Gambling / Re: Vulnerabilities in gambling websites in past on: July 19, 2022, 05:07:31 AM
Meanwhile there are still many sites that are still not waiting for tx confirmation before crediting the balance!
They're too eager for new betters to their sites and play games right away that skip ahead important protocols in crypto. This is why I think vulnerabilities always exist in gambling sites since the fierce competition between gambling sites force some of the security steps to be lax.
As long as the admin, team, or casino owner can update the casino, especially for security issues, they don't have to worry about external attacks.
It's difficult but I think that's what casinos have to do because of the competition in the gambling world.
Each casino wants to protect its casino from hackers, viruses or other attacks and this is not an easy task because if they don't update their site, their casino will be vulnerable to attack.
Only casino sites that really pay attention to security issues can survive all kinds of vulnerabilities.
1651  Economy / Gambling / Re: A New Era for Betting - (After Corona Circumstances) on: July 19, 2022, 04:11:26 AM
as the competition among online casinos are getting tough everyday, the owners/developers should think of ways how to sustain their players. thus, they do need to innovate their services and adopt some features that will keep up the interest of their players. as we have seen, a casino or sportsbook has been launched regularly. it means, if the casino won't keep up with the current demands of their players, they may possibly be left behind.
The owner or developer seems to have thought about it because several casinos have been able to provide innovation to their customers, proving that the owners or developers are aware of it.
They see that the gambling industry will continue to grow in the future, especially with the many new technologies that can support many businesses, including gambling.
Casinos and sportsbooks will also listen to suggestions from their customers because their input is very important for the site's development.
The role of these customers is not only to provide income for the casino but the customer can also suggest many things to the casino or sportsbook.
1652  Economy / Speculation / Re: Do you regret buying before the dip on: July 15, 2022, 03:03:07 PM
As of now, I am still holding bitcoin in my portfolio and I have not sold any coins in my portfolio since last year, although now my portfolio has lost quite a bit compared to 2021. As for my belief and dare to say, I believe that bitcoin will rise again in the future and can't see any reason to give up this market again. There's only one problem: we don't know when the bitcoins will return but I can wait, this investment doesn't affect my daily life.
That's good for you because I don't think many people can be like you. After all, they will sell their bitcoins immediately, especially if they can't control themselves when they see the price drop.
The best strategy is to hold bitcoins since last year and only sell them at the peak price. Still, it must be accompanied by good self-control too because otherwise, we will surely panic to see price fluctuations that continue to fluctuate.
I also believe bitcoin will rise again in the future and currently, I am also still trying to collect more bitcoins before the price increases.
Hopefully, next year, the bitcoin price trend can change so we can sell bitcoin at the next price peak.
1653  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Advice from a stranger on: July 15, 2022, 10:42:16 AM
Is it true that new altcoins are the best to invest in right now? Someone said you can easily make better profits from new projects than investing in old altcoins that have already x their values already, what do you think? Good or bad idea.
That's not necessarily because there is no guarantee that the new project can provide better returns than the old project.
If you can figure out which new projects might explode upon release, you'll make a big profit, but if you don't, you'll run the risk of holding on for longer.
Investing in any project will have risks, depending on how you can control them.
Only use the money you can afford to lose if you want to invest.
That's what you have to remember.
1654  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What Type of Gambler Am I? on: July 15, 2022, 09:07:13 AM
That is what I have learned to do the hard way.I have been playing slot machines to the point of addiction not that long ago,just some months ago up to a point where I lost a huge amount,at least huge to me.I immediately decided that I will quit this type of gambling in favor of entertainment one.I have been able to do so,I have learned a great deal of self control,now I only play 100 dollars weekly no matter lost or won money in that session.I only like to get the bonus round of the slot machine a couple of times and I am happy even if I don't win money from such sessions.This way I have been limiting myself to not spend more than 100 dollars weekly and so far it works.
It turns out that you have an experience like that that makes you addicted. But thankfully, you can decide to stop this type of gambling because slot games can really make us addicted and forget to stop.
But it looks like you should try to reduce the amount of money you use each week and see the results later because, in my opinion, $100 is still big enough to be used, even if it's only for a week.
But try to imagine if in a month, you set up a fund of $ 400, it will feel very big.
So try to challenge yourself to use less money that you can use for gambling because then, you can have money to use for other things.

They would never have realized it just from the stories of their predecessors and experienced people. They need to go through the bear market and the bad things of the market a few times and they will learn from the experience for their investment journey in the future.
There's nothing more practical for me than experiencing it for myself and we'll know what to do the next time it happens again.
Therein lies the real problem they face because they have never experienced it.
If they had faced it at least once, they would be able to see that the cycle would occur each time so that they could prepare to face it again.
Maybe people who have been in crypto for 5 years or more will know it but few can really control themselves in a bear market, while others will always be provoked by news that is not clear.
1656  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Any changes experienced within body - Gambling??? on: July 15, 2022, 04:28:45 AM
...control to stop at the right point than moving forward in chase of loss or just continuing as it looks like there's continuous win.
Control to quit at the right point is a must because that's what you can do to avoid addiction and spend more money.
By doing that continuously, you can stop yourself from getting too deep into gambling because you can stop in time.
Plus, you can save money to use the next day instead of spending it in one day.
Even though we can win from gambling, we still have to control ourselves so victory does not turn into defeat.
Not only this, if you can manage to have enough self-control to stop your gambling session as you soon as you wish it then you will gain the confidence that you can stop at any point in time, and that in the case you feel like you are gambling too much during that session you can just stop gambling if things get a little bit out of hand, so a person that can do that will most likely never get addicted to gambling as they will always be the ones that are in control.
That's what we must do to avoid gambling addiction that can endanger our lives and those around us.
By having self-control, we don't have to worry that we will cross the limit because we can stop at any time and still use the money in our balance to play gambling on another day.
It will also help us not to use the money for other purposes so that we don't run out of money just to play gambling.
But this is really difficult to do and only people who desire to avoid gambling or addiction can do it.
1657  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is it good to invest Dot for long term? What are your thoughts about Polkadot? on: July 14, 2022, 01:04:48 PM
I think DOT is one of the coins that have the potential to increase because it is in the top 20 list.
It would be better if you do a DCA rather than buying in bulk at once because we know the price can go up and down at any time.
So, you can get DOT at a low price by doing that strategy.
But even though most of us say DOT is a potential coin, you should do your own research so you can decide not based on other people's research.

1659  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: You have not lost a dime if your Bitcoin is in your wallet on: July 14, 2022, 09:28:23 AM
What makes people sell their bitcoins is because of the panic to see the price drop drastically and they can't afford to see the loss they will gain without thinking that the price could increase again in the future.
They are triggered by the amount of negative news they read from the internet that they lose control of keeping their bitcoins.
If they can still hold their bitcoin, their bitcoin will remain 1 and will not change and only the value will change.
But that decision will be up to them because they own the bitcoins.

It often occurs to new investors in the middle of a bull market when they are just starting out in investing. In their minds, bitcoin will always increase and not decrease, so they simply buy and then sell to make a profit. But no, things are not as they had imagined, investments do not always increase and do not decrease as they had hoped. As a result, they panicked and  sell everything as they feared losing everything when bitcoin dropped. They accidentally gave their bitcoins to other sharks waiting for a price that couldn't be cheaper.
They should realize that the price of bitcoin will not be able to continue increasing and there will be a correction in the price.
And usually, this correction will decline. Sometimes it will decline sharply, which is what they have to use to buy bitcoin at a low price.
Investing in crypto carries the risk of price going up and down but if they believe that the price will increase again, they better be patient and keep holding their coin until the time comes to sell.
And don't panic if the market fluctuates or the price drops sharply but take the opportunity to buy more.
1660  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Reasons why people avoid KYC in gambling casino ? on: July 14, 2022, 06:36:16 AM
The fact that many big casinos need KYC is not denied and this sometimes likely forces the users to do so. There are probably some considerations (or a must) to implement KYC for several certain importances.
I will think likely what happened to Binance right now, they used no KYC but they started to change the regulation and implement KYC for Binance. This may also happen to a certain casinos. ANd sadly, we may not have choice again besides doing the KYC if we have been familiar, comfortable, and enjoy enough gambling on certain casino platforms.
Actually, KYC itself is various, some may be too strict that also really need ourID photo and also our photo with the ID live video, but some may onlygive certai n email or ther data input.
The big casino also puts a limit on what a gambler can do if the gambler doesn't want to do KYC and the gambler actually realizes that.
But unfortunately, due to the desire to win more winning money, the gamblers keep playing and depositing more money.
I also don't know about Binance but many traders have done KYC to be able to continue trading there.
Let's hope nothing bad happens to Binance in the future.
