1061  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 2.4% People from Bangladesh Hold Cryptocurrency on: May 17, 2023, 02:35:45 PM
Good luck to them, Bangladesh isn’t a very wealthy country so I totally applaud anybody who is trying to make a better life for themselves. 1 Bangladeshi Taka is 0.0093 United States Dollar (I Googled) so these people who are buying & holding bitcoin have my absolute respect.

Not to mention that Bitcoin is illegal in Bangladesh they run the risk of getting charged in court and prosecuted and ending up in jail, this is the power of the internet these holders know the potential of Bitcoin because they can follow what's happening around the world and how Bitcoin create an impact so they prefer to take the risk and hope that when there's a shift in the government or there is a new administrator, that new administration is open for adoption of Bitcoin.

And because of that, it's important to seize this opportunity and bet on him with those attractive odds. Loma is going to make sure it's not going to be easy for Haney. We understand that Haney is a smart boxer, but I believe he hasn't faced a boxer as intelligent as Loma. Despite Loma's age, which some may consider him an older boxer, we might be surprised on fight night. Let's watch, see, and enjoy this highly anticipated big fight.
They are both smart in the ring and highly technical boxers, honestly, this could be the first time we'll be seeing two boxers with the same skill although Loma is the most experienced one.

These two boxers are the kind of boxers that always capitalize on their opponent's mistakes and this match will be decided on who will make the most mistake.

I'm excited to see the face-off and I hope we'll see two healthy fighters Loma lose the title because of an injury we don't want to see this happen again.

2. Is Sweepstakes gambling or not?

I thought that sweepstake is gambling because its a game of luck and you are hoping to win but by definition, it's not gambling, this is why some countries that restrict gambling allow companies to launch sweepstakes because it does not involve betting your own money.

Quote
Sweepstakes are technically not gambling, although they are still based on chance and have the fairly same premise where you will trade something in – be that your time, do something for free, or sign up somewhere, in order to win something.

Are Sweepstakes Considered Gambling?

Quote
What is a Sweepstakes?
By defnition, a sweepstakes is an advertising
or promotional device by which items of value
(prizes) are awarded to participating consumers
by chance, with no purchase or entry fee
required to win.

I will stay away from gambling for a while now that mempool is starting to suck once again.

DON'T GAMBLE IF THE INSTANT WITHDRAWAL IS NOT AVAILABLE!

The network congestion is really a big burden for players I understand your concern I also experienced this way back, and my mindset is like yours while waiting for the network to be OK it's very tempting to try if can add more what we intended to withdraw, it's very risky you don't even notice that you already lose half of what you intended to withdraw so you'll try to win it back until you lose everything.

I hate it when I realize that the network decongests and you lose it all, so whenever there is congestion and I feel like I try my luck I'm using altcoins like Tron or BNB while waiting for the network to be ok.

This is the first time I've seen a member wearing a double signature, it's unethical and this is abuse good that he is caught this early with so many participants attended by bounty managers it's hard to catch this type of person it's good that one of the members caught him.
Now we should be aware of this type of cheater, and we as members should help our managers by checking some of the participants if he is swapping signatures.

Supported both flags.

There's a lot of expert advice and warning that people should not open attachments from unknown sources, these scammers and hackers will send you compelling emails so you'll be tempted to open the file.
Control yourself and just believe scammers sent you to hack your system, even the best AV cannot control what will go to your system if you open the file.

Since you have no idea what they are sending it's better to ignore and not respond they will bait you again if you respond.
1067  Economy / Gambling / Re: Is this considered a safe practice on: May 16, 2023, 12:50:24 PM
Is it safe or dumb to use your Credit card for online gambling because of free bonus rewards on signup and initial 3 months purchase? Will you take such risks with your card for such rewards? A friend informed me that some casinos gives better reward if you have a credit card with high credit score at around 800, he mentioned how he make 200$ from Freedom Flex after using over 600$. He also mentioned other like capital one

What are the disadvantages of using a credit card on online casinos? Any? Would you dare do such to earn more money?

Money on credit cards is not money you own, its money that you are borrowing, and the first rule of responsible gambling is to only play with money that can you can afford to lose or just excess money from your basic needs, there's a big risk playing with your credit card and besides not all credit issuer allow using their card on gambling platform, they don't encourage gambling because they know the repercussion of supporting gamblers using their card.
1068  Economy / Gambling / Re: Gambling is a choice. on: May 16, 2023, 09:34:20 AM


My thoughts, is this how we often feel when we lose out on a bet??
Do you wish the site can refund your money??
No casino will refund your money under any circumstances when you bet and you lose, you lose, it's your choice that you bet and lose your money your being irresponsible causes you to lose your money a casino will just offer you to play

Quote
Gambling should be your choice, you shouldn't let anyone compel or persuade you into it.
You should be responsible enough to think for yourself, even if you are persuaded or asked to play whatever outcome you should accept, what if you hit the jackpot and won a lot of money you will be thankful that they persuade or asked you to play.
1069  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Some needed features of an online casino. on: May 15, 2023, 08:51:25 PM
I support those points OP laid out but it restricts both the players and the casino from achieving what they want, casinos are profit driven if they implement these points they will lose a big portion of their profit, they support responsible gambling but not to the point of them being restrictive to their players, players don't want them to be limited they are looking for profit and entertainment if a casino have these features they can simply transfer to casinos that understand what they want, profit and to be entertain.
Casinos cannot define players' level of happiness playing in casinos, it's at the sole discretion of the players.
1070  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Thoughts on potential portfolio on: May 15, 2023, 12:33:53 PM
Thanks for your inputs, I agree this may be too many in one portfolio and will look to reduce down to 5 or 6.
In terms of keeping ETH in, its simply about trying to manage some risk as I know any alt can go down the drain, with ETH there is less likelihood of this.
I will look more into Arb, Aptos and SUI as a replacement for ADA/DOT.
Ethereum is a must on every portfolio we are different when it comes to perspective about investing in altcoins because there are so many coins to choose from, from our limited funds but those who have proven themselves over the years deserve to be on top, coins or tokens that has usability, platform to back it should be on top of priority, on my part I invest a lot on Ethereum, Binance, and XRP, there are risk on XRP and BSC but I'm sure these two tokens can overcome it.

Update: Just spoke with an admin, nothing he can do about it. I guess it's time I say goodbye to this site. Taking my 43 referrals and millions wagered every week along with me.
Can you really do that is it really possible to do that it seems you have contacts on all your referrals if you can convince them to transfer to another casino of your choosing but what if some of your referrals already have an account on the casino that you've picked to transfer?
Some players have their own lucky casino to play with so some might stay, it's still a good option to lower your referral cashback I'm sure they will understand it, and you will still earn from their wager, I recommend that you take a look at Betcoin.ag and check their referral rewards.
1072  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Jason Moloney vs Vincent Astrolabio WBO 118lbs Title (May 13) on: May 14, 2023, 01:08:47 PM
From what I read Astrolabio started very slow and allowing Moloney to dictate the game and it was like at the start of round 7 that he started to very aggressive but it was late as Moloney has piled points already from the judges scorecard.
I watch the replay and I think Astrolabio wasn't starting slow, actually he was aggressive and always catch Moloney. Moloney is a counter puncher here and he punch less than Astrolabio. Although Moloney's punch is more accurate, but he only punch Astrolabio few times, not really deserved he's become a winner.

At least it should be a draw, or Astrolabio win with a close scorecard 115-113.

I did not get a chance to watch the match because I'm on the road and my phone was off, I only get to watch the highlight I agree it should be a draw but this is a championship fight there should be a winner, Astrolabio chance is a knock out since this is in a foreign soil so the title goes to Moloney.
Moloney is not a tough champion he can be beaten by Donaire if ever they meet in the ring he is beatable and there are a lot of flaws to his style, he is not even a hard puncher.
1073  Economy / Services / Re: [$50/week] 1/3 signature ad spaces + avatar available (Avg. 30+ posts per week) on: May 13, 2023, 09:04:04 PM


Preview:




There is competition in signature advertising right now between Mixers and casinos and the size of the space ad really matters, advertisers want total focus on their banner which is why projects go to the extent of launching a signature design contest, I don't think with a limited space their brand will stand out if you are charging $5 per posts if they see someone offering a full space with the same price and both of you have the same status in the forum, you will be left out.
1074  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Crypto VS Fiat Online Gambling as per Google trends on: May 13, 2023, 12:17:13 PM
Crypto-based casinos have been ruling fiat-based casinos for a long few years now, in fact, fiat-based casinos are shifting or adopting cryptocurrency, they have to because players are now moving to Crypto based casinos for better experience and convenience, and privacy protection, something fiat-based casinos cannot offer.
This trend is going to be permanent and the time will come there will be few fiat-based casinos, players are using Bitcoin BCH and Ethereum because this is the most popular coin in the community, its a currency of choice, and because Bitcoin is the top coin, and it will remain this way for many years.
1075  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: EXODUS + criptointercambio.com = SCAM (hold funds 350 000$) on: May 12, 2023, 03:21:37 PM

I found this company, I will talk about what they offer to do and for how much.

https://www.rahmanravelli.co.uk/

That's a very huge amount but have you exerted all your efforts this should be a big concern for the Crypto community why not reach out first to big Crypto media like Cointelegram and ask an audience to publish your issue or story if your funds are clean they need to refund, it will help others who like to trade with a huge amount not to pick Exodus if they failed to act on what they promise, then suing them is the best option.
I think a demand letter from a law firm will force them to act on their promise.
1076  Economy / Gambling discussion / Where and How Do you watch live boxing and MMA matches on: May 12, 2023, 01:26:47 PM
It's not that we cannot afford to buy PPV live of must-watch boxing matches but if you don't want to buy a PPV where and how do you watch your favorite live fights and matches.

For me it's Facebook live streaming there are a lot of streamers that share their stream in the fight for a small donation, these streamers are wise they know what to do and how to configure their stream so Facebook will not catch them and disable their stream.
I watched the most popular fight recently the Canelo - Ryder fight and it will be my choice for big fights
how about you?
1077  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: sending bank statement for verification on: May 12, 2023, 11:43:30 AM
i registered at an online casino and my deposit was not arrived(in casiono) and i contact to their support and they said you need to wait for 10 business days for your refund.

10days are completed and i still didn't received my refund, and they told that "if you don't receive your refund in 10 days then you can contact us with your bank statement"

my question is, is it safe to share bank account statement for verification purposes?  the site is reputable, but in bank statement all my information are available. is it safe to share?

Based on your post this was a fiat-based deposit because you are talking about a bank statement and they want to be sure that you did not receive funds they ask for your bank statement so they can follow up and make sure that you will receive your funds.
It all goes out now on how you trust the casino to show them your bank account since you mentioned that they are reputable, this is one of the benefits of using Cryptocurrency to deposit in casinos, the transaction will not take ten days to complete, and you have proof about your transaction because its visible on explorer.
I wonder why pick a fiat to deposit and do they not offer Cryptocurrency as one of the options to deposit?
1078  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Another betting fraud in Brazil - part 2 on: May 11, 2023, 02:00:36 PM
It is possible that you are right in saying that they do not get enough salary or benefits so that they dare to risk their careers to participate in sports betting scams.

I would like to add they do not have a real love for the sport, because if they do they will not let these things happen, and only a big syndicate can do this, both the syndicate and the players made money they made the public believe that they are doing their best and they deserve the trust of the public.

The commission should do everything to eradicate corruption and to regain the trust of the public again, even to the extent of putting the best players of the league in jail and banning all those responsible to game fixing.
Of all the things the general sports public confidence is very important, you lose the trust of the public and that could be the end of sports in that country.

You misspelled a lot of names of casinos here you should correct these there are casinos that don't fit the category of the best casino in 2023 better do your own research, you should create a link to casinos instead of just putting on names.
I nominate Betcoin.ag to be part of your list.

But I want to give you a suggestion for more popularity of your casino site. My suggestion is to enable p2p system on your casino site. If you can do this p2p system then I think your casino site will be one of the most popular casino sites of here.

Can you give us at least one casino with P2P system in place that is popular among gamblers, in fact, people are having second thoughts about playing on P2P casinos because they don't trust casinos that are being run by smart contracts and linking their wallet to the casino for interaction, like Helena Yu this is my understanding of the concept of P2P and top casinos do not have this, I think you have to clarify what you mean of P2P.
vbetFTN.com did the right thing, the team knows what they need to do to have a good impression on their presence here in Bitcointalk.



Can you give me 3 casinos which have P2P system is become successful now? all of the successful casinos in this forum are centralized e.g. Rollbit, Sportsbet. Bitcasino, Stake, Roobet, Duelbits, Betcoin.ag etc. If you can't mention 3 successful P2P casinos, it's just your hypothesis.
