Be careful what you wish for.  Giving BSV a platform here instead of continuing to keep the status quo would be quite a change of direction.  Would then Bitcoin Cash also deserve it's own subforum?  If your answer is, "No, because Roger isn't attacking people in the community."  Then maybe you should rethink your position.  This is a forum that doesn't moderate obvious scams because they don't want to pick and choose.  Picking and choosing a Bitcoin fork to give it's own subforum seems rather unlikely to me.  No matter who calls for it.


Why not make/start a Discord server for Bitcointalk, and all community members who wants to join can join and discuss any Faketoshi investigations or leads there, then open a pinned topic in Bitcointalk, but locked, to post the most important updates and information from the Discord server.

I believe there are some people who post in the topic that are still unconvinced that there are protests around the world caused by high inflation. Those people will start believing it, probably during or after the winter. Plus if anyone believes that we have already seen the worst of the crisis, there will be MORE bad news coming. Russia is preparing for what might be something unavoidable.

Russia's parliament on Tuesday approved a bill to toughen punishments for a host of crimes such as desertion, damage to military property and insubordination if they are committed during military mobilisation or combat situations.

The bill, passed in its second and third readings on Tuesday by the lower house of parliament, the Duma, comes amid debate inside Russia about a possible mobilisation, a step which could significantly escalate the conflict in Ukraine.

According to a copy of the bill, seen by Reuters, voluntary surrender would become a crime for Russian military personnel, punishable by 10 years in prison.

https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/russian-parliament-toughens-punishment-crimes-during-mobilisation-2022-09-20/


That's a war-time policy.

Mobilization in Russia was introduced on September 21 due to the defeat of the Russian army in Ukraine. This is just a step of desperation and hopelessness on the part of the Kremlin. Putin wants to send another 300,000 mobilized reservists to Ukraine, and according to some sources, a million people who are unlikely to change the situation in the war, since they do not have experience in waging war in the current changed war conditions of drones and other modern equipment.


Learn from history, ser. Russia is NOT desperate, and definitely NOT hopeless about Ukraine. The Russian government's move for partial mobilization is a move for a more expansive conflict. They want to occupy Ukraine, and they have shown that they will fight the West if they need to through partial mobilization. It's up to the people now if they want to protest and SAY NO TO THE WAR.

Quote

More recently, Russians in Ukraine have deserted, surrendered, or self-mutilated to avoid war and death. Strengthening responsibility for these actions, as well as forced mobilization, will only extremely exacerbate internal contradictions in Russia itself. It will be interesting to observe whether the Russians will resignedly, like a flock of sheep, go to the slaughter in Ukraine and die for Putin's imperial ambitions, or will they finally remember that they are also people and will demolish their anti-people power.


It's not over, ser. A battle doesn't in a war. But let's just stop the debates, and pray for the people of Ukraine and Russia. It's the fault of their governments, their politicians, their CABAL.

and that the war in Ukraine will last at least another year, but maybe it just seems that way to me as a mere observer who still feels the consequences of everything on his skin.


I believe it will be more than that, and Russia is preparing for a more expansive war. The Russian government has approved a "partial mobilization". They did that during the Russia-Japan war, which was one of the forerunners to World War I. Tin-Foil hats on.

Maybe I've lived through some much worse things than inflation and recession, so all this seems to me like too much scaring people and causing panic. The situation is not at all harmless, but it is not exactly the end of the world, regardless of the craziness coming from the east, where the open threats of nuclear war come from - even though such a war means the destruction of all of Europe and the US.


My only hope is, NO nuclear weapons.

OP, that's just another piece of dirty propaganda/misinformation made by no one else but a U.S. legacy financial entity. The U.S. government clowns also redefined what an actual recession is. Two quarters of negative GDP is not a recession? During October, it will be THREE quarters of negative GDP.



Plus the FED has increased its balance sheet by almost 10x since 2008, and the people/country are currently suffering because of that.

so many red in your dice games 50% chance is look rigged


That's a very common accusation made against online casinos from users, especially if they are regularly playing in real-life casinos. In online casinos, the deals, the spins, the throws are faster than in real casinos. THEN if there's a losing streak, which also happens in real casinos, the losing streaks in online casinos might feel like they happen more frequently. But if you count the total deals, spins, dice-throws in an online casino, the volume is more than double than what you can do in a real casino.

I hope that helps, ser.

It looks like BJ bankrupted or closing soon
So i recommend to players to not deposit Larege amounts .

When you see a casino removed the VIP rewards or Race rewards ( changed to free spins that worth 3cents each ) also suddenly hitting players with KYC requirements  its obvious BJ have troubles or no funds
From a weekly race prize of 800mbtc to 1000spins worth 1mbtc in total
Better dont deposit large amounts


It's a bear market ser, and a recession. Every business, of every kind, will be cutting costs to continues giving their employees their salaries, and to continue maintaining the business. Do you work for a company, or run a business? I believe you would know that if you did.

Plus suddenly hitting players with KYC requirements might only indicate that the casino suspects that it is being cheated through with bonus abuses, and the abuse in their generous VIP system before the change.

I won big today in bjfun and now i cant play anymore, if i try to open the site i only have the KYC setup, i send everything they want but after i click "send verification" nothing happens and if i refresh the site i must do the KYC again and again

I think you should contact support especially when the admin is active in the chat room only the admin can help solve your problem quickly
I see you win 252 mbtc can we know what games you play? your last record is win 123 mbtc on Plinko today you reach a new record, Congrats Gen
Oh yeah so far there have been 2 forum members who have to go through KYC  Sad


Lol how do u know about my old 123 mbtc plinko hit? 😅
My new record 252 mbtc Was plinko too

LOL so you don't remember my user name? I see your crazy bet on Plinko 1-3mbtc per spin/roll right? I even know after 1 day withdraw  your win then you deposit again 😅
I also checked your big win yesterday on the Top Wins 24 Bj & Plinko. It's been a long time you didn't bet like that, where did you get a loan? 😅😅
Still can't access your account? I don't see you in chatroom.

My last deposit Was actually 2 mbtc and i did it to 40 mbtc in bj and then i played plinko with 6k sat bets and Balance go down and down, i increased to 60k sat and hit 420x which was 252 mbtc hit, later i did 100 ubtc bets bj = 10k sat for hourly, later i withdraw and wanted to bet 100 ubtc again but i forgot that i put my btc from ubtc to mbtc and have bet 100 mbtc instead by mistake and got a BJ = 250 mbtc.

Wanted bet 2$ but did 2000$ 😅


As a regular gambler who is probably also a big winner in BlackJack, Plinko, and other table games, what do you think of the game called Craps, https://arthscr.ejoinme.org/Portals/6383/Files/Rules-for-Basic-Craps.pdf

I have been like a broken record about Craps in the forum, BUT would that be a kind of game that a regular BlackJack player like you would want to play? House edge is less than many table games if you have the right strategy.

That's a war-time policy.

Now this will be a domino effect indeed. bad news, the number of protests in every country and some statements about war from several countries will obviously worsen the current situation.
Now there is nothing that can be done because surely the ones who will suffer the last are the people who do not have the power both in the economy and the political power who are the targets affected in this case.

It's really hard when you want to stop something like this because it is certain that protests will occur everywhere when there is something that will indeed cause misery.


Plus the last time Russia did a "partial mobilization" was targeted to Austria-Hungary, there as also partial mobilizations done during the Russia-Japan War, both which became the forerunner of World War I. If we take history, and learn from it, it teaches us that "partial mobilizations" has always been an "opening" for a wider-ranging war.

PoS is weak security.

Funny, the US Office of Science and Technology list Proof of Stake as Secure.
Maybe they are smarter than you franky1, because weak was left out.

They also recommended PoW be eliminated. (1 executive order is all it takes.)

All those smart people, and they have a totally different viewpoint , imagine that.  


when staked coin is hoarded by 3 top exchanges.. those exchanges are not just the mining pool.. but also the economic nodes of deciding what forks to follow for their trading market order books. and the vault holders of general users wealth


It's also currently more possible under Ethereum's new system, only accounts that went through KYC will be allowed to stake. It definitely opened new attack vectors that can be used by centralized government entities, some of which will only be known by the users by surprise. A Black Swan.

Bitcoin should never change, especially not because there are mere trolls who are probably from the BCash SV community.

Trolls who are making their debate for POS, especially if using Ethereum as the narrative, have no understanding or doesn't try to have an understanding of what Ethereum actually lost, and its importance. There's currently more/increased probability that Ethereum will devolve and accept "the trade-off" to be compliant, which should be UNACCEPTABLE for a base layer.
2074  Economy / Economics / Re: Germans are looking to firewood for energy as natural gas prices soar on: September 20, 2022, 07:37:23 AM
Germany is a country that have good resource, and economically good. This time it is suffering the worse with climate changes as well as more other financial difficulties. One amongst is the insufficient oil. This will make them think of moving into renewable energy production. Maybe this year the country will suffer, but in the future it'll be more effective as it doesn't want to depend on other nation for oil.


That's true, Germany does have natural resources available that scale from natural gas to coal, but is it enough to supply their population's growing energy needs? Are the policy makers making the right policies to actually use those resources and be independent from foreign countries for their energy needs? I'm not trying to disprespect Germany, and people from Germany, but the answer is "I believe not".
germans were not always good. They built themselves.They are the nation of people who knows how to work hard and bring the dream alive.

They have great infrastructure and beautiful land.


Read my post. My issue is not with the German people, because like all of the other people from other countries, whether it's Ukranian, Russian, or American, they are all good, hard-working, and they love their countries. My issue is with the government, and their policies.

Plus "war-time economy" to start in Europe if the European Comission's proposal for emergency powers is approved.

You are barking at the wrong tree. The root cause is the fascist Russian government that started this clusterfuck.

Russia waged an economic war on the West as they started a genocidal war in Ukraine.

Right now, no sane country would want to depend on the energy supply from Russia.

Not only that, NATO is frantically preparing for the actual war with Russia.

Europeans will find a way out of this nightmare. I am not sure Russia will.


You're not trying to the context of my post ser. You say, "Russia waged an economic war". Yes, but that fault is not on the Russian people. It's obviously on the Russian government. Everything about the current crisis in Europe is on the government, from BOTH sides of the economic war. The people, Russian, Ukrainian, German and those from other European countries have merely become the casualties.

I have been here for a while and I can say that I have never been asked my KYC before, I am not saying they do not ask it at all, all I am saying is that it is not mandatory like some other places. Some places ask you even if you want to gamble, some others ask you when you want to withdraw even 100 bucks, but blackjack is not one of those places, they only ask it if you gamble a lot I suppose, or maybe they ask it if there is a suspicious thing.

Maybe you're a long time user on their platform that is why they don't ask you to do KYC yet. But for new users, we should always expect KYC verification whatever platform that we try. Gambling websites have become more stricter now and each of them have different rule on their KYC, some will ask you to still comply even if the amount you will withdraw is just 10$. We are not in the place to complain if it's stated on their ToS in the first place. The only choice we have is to leave that small amount on their platform if we really don't want to complete their KYC.

The age of the account doesn’t related on the urgency to do KYC because you will only be required to do KYC if you display something suspicious that will caught the attention of the security team of the casino.

I’m an old player on this casino but still I undergo KYC due to my own fault. I regularly deposit and withdraw my balance often times and sometimes I do multiple deposit from different wallet on my exchange to gamble.


That's very understanable because of the nature of something such as Bitcoin. I believe from a business standpoint, casinos would of course like unlimited coins going into the site regardless of where it came from. But there are rules and regulations that must be complied by the casino as a protection for itself through acceptance of "their" rules. A trade-off.

I won big today in bjfun and now i cant play anymore, if i try to open the site i only have the KYC setup, i send everything they want but after i click "send verification" nothing happens and if i refresh the site i must do the KYC again and again

DCA is a good way to accumulate bitcoin long term I see this prospect is quite good this is still the right choice in a bear market, so don't panic let alone sell your BTC, look at this data people are brave enough to buy Bitcoin worth $ 2 - $ 8 million every day in implementing their DCA.

Stay DCA and HODL.
It's a whale trying to hoard more BTC on daily purchases its even crazier the millions of dollars they spend just on DCA, really brave in accumulating Bitcoin.

If we get a whale with hundreds of BTC then we consistently keep it on the weekly we buy the BTC, it doesn't matter if we only buy 0.00xxxBTC but in the long run we can feel how this is going well, so I will also be in the DCA strategy.

Maybe it's a whale purse - 3FpYfDGJSdkMAvZvCrwPHDqdmGqUkTsJys


If it was buying real Bitcoins to HODL, and not trading futures contracts with leverage, then definitely there's nothing to be worried about. It's just the bear part of the market cycle. During the bull part of the cycle, the same people who didn't buy and merely looked at the DIP, WILL wish that they bought the DIP. The market is giving us plebs a gift, another Golden Opportunity.

Ethereum has actually DEVOLVED into something lower, like the other cheap blockchains competing against it for the same use cases. What Ethereum had that its competitors couldn't have is a self boot-strapped, mature, Proof of Work consensus layer. It's NOT EASY to reach that level.
