1841  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Investing in Casino tokens such as BFG, OWL or TFS on: July 15, 2022, 08:40:35 AM
It looks like all cryptos went down in the past few weeks/months, Bitcoin is down, Ethereum is down.

Among the few ones that actually haven't lost a lot of value are cryptos that represent gambling sites, for instance:

  • BFG for BetFury - they offer currently up to 76% yields per annum on the BFG token that is paid in other cryptos such as USDT, BNB etc.
  • OWL for OwlGames - they offer 43% per annum on their OWL token, their currency has actually went up in value whilst all other cryptos went down - and why? Anyone knows?
  • TFS for FairSpin - not very popular but represents FairSpin, didn't go down in value much either.

Are these things similar to what we had in the 1990s and 2000s before Crypto - like buying "William Hill" or "Ladbrokes" stocks? Is it more or less the same thing just in Crypto?

And why OWL keeps on going up in price? Honestly their site doesn't seem to be very unique or impressive - anyone has a credible explanation who is behind the price rise of that OWL token?!

 Huh
I'm a holder of both Owl and Betfury, and it's two of the coins I'm holding that carry my portfolio in the bear trend, I guess it has something to do with the platform and community support, investors support where they see longevity on projects and since these two coins are gambling-related and we all know that the gambling industry is a multi-billion industry investors made a sure bet by betting on casino based tokens.
Of course, there are exceptions to the rules there are in the past attempt by developers to set up tokens based on casinos but they failed because they just want to make a quick profit and are not interested in setting up a gambling form that will serve the gambling community.
1842  Economy / Gambling / Re: Rocketpot.io refusing/delaying to pay out 170k win. 16K/170K+ Paid so far on: July 14, 2022, 11:52:59 PM


I hope for the OP that he will get all his money, but Rocketpot is always loosing here. Seeing how they handled this case, doesn't give a lot of confidence and with the rules they have for withdrawing, not a lot of big players will be inclined to play at Rocketpot.


Yeah I agree this is a big concern and this issue is attached to Rocketpot as long as they have not completed the payment, unless most of his players and new players coming in are nto aware of this issue, but Bitcointalk has a very wide reach they will find out and will have second thought before playing here, it's better for Rocketpot to play the whole amount and bank on this issue that they resolve to gain reputation, it's a win win situation for both party.
1843  Economy / Gambling / Re: A New Era for Betting - (After Corona Circumstances) on: July 14, 2022, 10:57:15 PM
After the global epidemic that started in 2019, there were problems not only in football but also in all sports branches. However, sports branches that appealed to the audience live, such as football, were more affected.

Even if normalization begins towards the end of last season, we are getting ready to enter a season that we can call normal.

In this process, especially for football, I think that the big teams lose more power in general. Because supporter support is one of the most important criteria. This season, we will have a more normal season and I think we can watch better matches. Of course, we may also be entering a more enjoyable period for betting.
The pandemic is not yet over, the world is now adjusting and there is still health protocol that needs to be followed but we are trying to get to where we left off before the pandemic, humans can adjust to any situation, we've seen it in when the pandemic is on it's highest where the vaccine is not yet administered, we still have a lot of adjustment to do and everything is on recovery phase and the live sporting events is more enjoyable.
We have missed so many things we enjoy doing before the pandemic, but life must go on.

I really didnt expect that something like this can happen in 2022

So this year 2022 scamming will be a thing of the past? or where have you been, you can read scams and scams on the internet even in a non Cryptocurrency industry almost every day, your words betray you.

and it gives me more urge to share the story and awful experience i had with 1xbit gambling site (https://1xbit1.com). Everything can be supported by screens of conversation, tx ids on blockchain and others. I have nothing to hide and everything to show.

Thanks for sharing you are part of the hundreds of reports about 1XBIT but yours will not be the last I expect many more reports like this in the future because 1XBIT spends a lot of money on advertising and fake testimonials.

Maybe @OP can give free lessons on poker first before he starts selling his lessons. Well, it's like basic lessons about poker. He can sell lessons to understand the game. I think it can work for him in a poker game because it is not easy for ordinary people to play it. If I'm not mistaken, I've read about poker games lessons on this forum and this might give @OP some ideas on what to share with us here.

Yes why not it's recommended and it will encourage people to continue buying those courses, we have no idea what's on the course, giving free lessons by starting a thread about Poker will give credibility to what he is offering.

The best-sellers when it comes to courses are those authority figures if you have won using those courses might as well share your tip and your winnings as well, buyers want to buy something that will yield them profit and gambling is one of them.
1846  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How Gambling companies can get more uses to deposit. on: July 13, 2022, 11:42:13 PM


This is certainly something that the Gambling companies do have to look into since this will go long way, thus changes needs to be made, What do you think, how important this option is for you?

This is probably the most important option, even though we understand that the house edge will always win and we will play to have fun, players are still hoping to win and they expect to get their withdrawals the soonest as possible with a lot of options to withdraw their earnings.
This is where we divide the line between scams and reputable casinos, reputable casinos make it easy for their players to withdraw their winning, when they want and how they want, compared to scam casinos, where they will delay it and check for loopholes on your activity.
1847  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Kazuto Ioka vs Donnie Nietes II on: July 13, 2022, 11:21:12 PM
First half of the fight is over and if the trend continues, Nietes will lose this one. Ioka was too active throwing punches though no significant damage to Nietes but i think the former will get points from that on the judges. Hope Nietes will adjust and not abandon his jab.

Yeah, I didn't finished the fight because it's clearly that the Japanese is dominating the fight from the very beginning.

Scores of 120-108, 118-110 and 117-111 were in favor of Ioka. Nietes counter was not enough, as the Japanese was the aggressor. So Ioka has avenge his lost and it seems that Nietes age has shown in this fight and better be hanging the gloves for good.

I just knew that Ioka will end by unanimous decision the fight was close in the early then the middle and the latter rounds Ioka dominate the fight if you're a challenger and you're fighting in the champion's territory you have to dominate the fight just like what Haney did against Kambosos, but I'm still proud of Nietes he did not go down without a fight, but his glory days are over and he will be in the list of great Filipino champion.
1848  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Jake Paul v Hasim Rahman Jr / Amanda Serrano V Brenda Carabaja co-main event Aug on: July 13, 2022, 10:53:22 PM


I can't pick a winner. Nobody really knows much about this guy other than his family name/ties. It could be Jake's most challenging fight yet, or maybe his easiest if he already knows he's not up to much since he's sparred him already. That's the only thing I don't like about this fight as they both will know the others limits and weaknesses/strengths etc. I don't know why but I'm really hoping Jake remains undefeated as I'd like to see how far he can go and who he will fight next. It has to be Tommy Fury for me.


Same, I have seen Rahman Jr. fight he has weaknesses and awkwardness, if Paul can land a clean punch he can knock this guy out, its a big challenge for Paul and a big step up too, this is the first time that he's fighting a real boxer, he may be not a top-level fighter but he is a legit boxer.
I have a feeling that this is a cherry-picked fight for Jake Paul but that's what he is good at.
1849  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Threshold of Loss in Gambling on: July 12, 2022, 11:14:39 PM
I will attempt to define threshold of loss as regards gambling as the minimum intensity at which a gambler can no longer tolerate a loss.

My question is, can you remember a time when you reached your threshold of loss while gambling?

My threshold loss is the money I deposited or allocated I always expected that after the session I can lose that money, I never force my way to win games or the jackpot, if I win that's great if I lose that's part of the game and I'm here to have fun and to keep the adrenaline going it's not the win for me its the fun, the feeling is worth especially when you're playing games like the crash game.
1850  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: People are not only gambling to win but they are buying entertainment on: July 12, 2022, 10:22:36 PM

This is why casinos are the most profitable industry, many people are not playing to win, they all know that there is a house edge and they will eventually lose but based on the study, people are buying entertainment.



They say in gambling, only the casino operators win, and that is the reality so never challenge the casino or dare it you cannot you can win sometimes but never all the time, gambling tackles the psychological mindset of humans they challenge it to try to win and at the same time it gives him pleasure that he will go after, so this is why it's easy to become addicted to gambling.
1851  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Teofimo Lopez vs Pedro Campa - Aug 13 on: July 12, 2022, 03:31:54 PM
Does anyone know what cause Lopez to move to other weight division? Last Canelo fight showed, that being so self confident and moving to other division ends bad. Why not try to regain belts back? What was all that shouts "I am the best", after winning Lomachenko, for ? Why not make make a second fight against Lomachenko, I am sure Loma will instantly accept it. Or a rematch with Kambosos ?

In his last fight against Kambosos their biggest excuse is Lopez cannot keep up with the weight anymore and he should have moved up much earlier before the Kambosos fight, maybe there's truth to this that Lopez cannot keep up with the weight anymore and draining his body is taking a big toil and he needs to move up so he is now campaigning in this division.
Lopez is still dangerous and he is still powerful and skillful he just needs to be guided so he can be on the right track, this is a big comeback fight for him and he needs to be impressive.
1852  Other / Off-topic / Re: Manny Paquiao vs Korean Youtuber on: July 12, 2022, 12:38:23 PM

Yes, no point betting on it as it's not a serious contest. If it was serious, then Manny would probably win by knockout in less than a minute. There's no way he'll be trying his hardest. Because it's purely entertainment he will have to take it very easy on his opponent.


They should stage this in a way that will be entertaining and fun his opponent is a fitness instructor and the founder of the Warfare Combat System he is also capable but nowhere like the skill of Pacquiao, the exhibition should be an exhibition, no knock-out or serious injury should happen, this is good for Pacquiao as he needs to tune up his body after those campaign trails where he gets a lot of commitment and travels a lot, I'm sure it will be supported by the boxing community, if they support Mayweather why not Pacquiao.

1854  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Mark Magsayo vs Rey Vargas WBC Featherweight Title (July 9) on: July 10, 2022, 05:47:38 AM
The latest update Vargas beat Magsayo by a split decision Magsayo scored a

Vargas SD-12 against Magasyo (115-112, 113-114, 115-112) to become new WBC Featherweight champion.

Vargas dominated from round 3 to round 8 with his stiff jabs, he uses his height and reaches advantage to ward off Magsayo's attack, I don't know if its over confidence but it seems Vargas has played his game well compared to Magsayo but this one deserves a rematch if there is in the contract that there is one.

That's actually a good fight and well deserved for a rematch.
That was the fight between a close combat and distance fighter. Vargas was spectacular from rounds 3-8 keeping his distance and a good jab to dominate the whole game.
Magsayo had his chance in round 9 on wards but he did not take advantage of it when Vargas got shaken with that huge round 9 knock down. Magsayo clearly lacks of head movement, footwork, and a follow up punches. He solely rely on his power punches.
Nevertheless, Vargas dominated the fight.
Kinda remind me of the match between Kambosos and Haney, where the taller guy with a long reach used it to his full advantage
Vargas used an old tactic for a tall guy to use his advantage by keeping his distance by jabs and side-to-side movement, Magsayo before the start of the fight showing too much confidence, great fighters don't do that, Vargas clearly had the number after the fight I though Vargas will win by unanimous decision, the community had its majority for Magsayo, there's really upsets and this is something that should not be ruled out.
1855  Economy / Gambling / Re: Rocketpot.io unconfirmed to pay out 170k win. 16K/170K+ Paid so far on: July 08, 2022, 09:30:03 PM
In any case, it is positive that an amount has been paid out. I believe that the amount paid out could be a bit higher, but in the end the website does nothing wrong if it adheres to the terms and conditions. It can be very frustrating if you can only withdraw 10k per week or month, but as long as the site pays that is the most important thing. Let's not cheer too soon. The OP still owes a lot of money from the site. I really hope he gets everything paid out and that he doesn't gamble on his credit, because that would be a shame of course. Keep us posted and let's hope he gets 10k in his wallet every week from the site.

It's better than this than having none at all, or the casino fabricating lies just to deny payment to OP, I have seen casinos declining huge payout because they cannot make a huge payout, the arrangement on this issue is good enough, and OP needs to do is to hope that the casino is making profit and continue their operation so they can keep up paying him up the last cent because OP deserves his earning, if it happens on big casinos and the casino honor the winnings he should get it in one withdrawal.
1856  Economy / Gambling / Re: Looking for perfect slot base casino on: July 08, 2022, 03:06:05 PM
Hey and greetings, I have developed some love for slot games recently and this has led me to quest for good reputable slot casinos where only slot games are played there. I don't like a casino that combines so many games that os way I prefer to play only slots-based casinos. Please make your recommendation.

I haven't known one only crash game dedicated casino, but what's the difference, just ignore the other game and just play what you enjoy playing, before looking for a dedicated casino, you should put reputation above what you're looking for in a casino, you'll want to withdraw your earnings right? go for a reputable casino with slot games on it and you're going to be ok with it. 
1857  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Bank of America reported a 50% decline of active cryptocurrency users. on: July 08, 2022, 02:50:30 PM
Big if true. But also very natural. That'!s what happens during the bear markets. Bitcoin and other crypto tanks, people speak of crypto no more and when they least expect it, bitcoin makes a huge jump and everybody talks about it again. Happened many times before and it will happen again. This is the accumulation phase. Don't let it go to a waste.

We still have many weak hands in our community, we can't blame them they are after quick profit, and easily leave Crypto when it's dipping then come back when it's pumping because they don't want to be left behind or they are in FOMO, old investors already have experienced these hundreds of times before, but these newbies never learn the value of the word HODL and having strong hands.
1858  Economy / Gambling / Re: What makes you hide your bets in public? on: July 08, 2022, 02:32:15 PM
I don't tend to hide or keep my username private in my betting because I'm also a small gambler and I rarely play. I also don't care if they imitate the strategy I used, it's up to them. I only hide it when I want to or in case the information I have used on the gambling site is related to my true identity. Maybe I’ll even be able to hide my identity publicly if I win big.

I did the same it's ignorable if you're betting small no one will hardly know unless the username you're using is well known so why hide it, if there is a contest like OP mentioned its best to not show it because when it comes to contesting everyone is for each own, and if you won you can make it public any big wins is considered as a chip in your shoulder, but of course, your username should be different from what you're using from real life.

I'm always added on 2 to 5 groups similar to what you're promoting every week and all of them get blocked and reported by me,
Don't trust these people, as you can see there is no FAQ and terms of service on their site there is no transparency, they preach easy money to their members, if they asked you to deposit money, don't ever do that we have a good number of reputable exchange, the industry is not lacking don't take a risk, if you're promoting this project you will be marked as part of the scam.
