1601  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Not your key not your coins is real, not just quoted. (FTX Issue) on: November 14, 2022, 09:19:44 PM
That quote "Not your key not your coins" I just know work from today when looking how difficult to withdraw our money if we don't have the private key and seed.

As I know, this is not the first time the exchange or other platform hold customer money in their pocket. it's obvious de facto, it's our money but they can't give to us.
It's as real as that.
You know, exchanges are just like banks, most of them are centralised and so they call the shorts, just like banks. You might have an account number which is synonymous to an account number and a password just like you've got on exchanges too.
They are at right to limit your withdrawals, access to your accounts, demand compliances, froze your account, keep records on you with the the authorities if necessary and more.
It's truly centralized and you don't have access so, you've got to tread carefully. Try not to leave large amounts on an exchange. You identify the advantage you wish to benefit from, make use of it and your out.
Government could only touch up crypto transactions and making out some surveillance via these exchange platforms which we do know that they are regulated or centralized then expected that every
transaction on which an account make would really be not anonymous and this is the thing you should accept and be wary on the time that you had deposit into an exchange.
This is part of the risk and you should really be that prepared for whatever things that could happen on an exchange since we know that we dont possess it wallet keys then
everything that might happen will really be that in resulting for possible lost of funds forever which its not really that surprising imho.
1602  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Proof of Reserves by the Gambling sites on: November 12, 2022, 11:47:23 AM
In the recent FTX crisis, CZ and others are emphasizing that exchanges should show the proof of reserves by the exchanges. People will only deposit and trade on exchanges who can show the proof of reserves.

Although no one is talking about the gambling site but should we demand from the gambling houses too to show their proof of reserves. In this case gamblers can be sure that if some day they win big, the gambling site will have enough funds to pay them out. I think it will be a good indicator to select the gambling site who have made their proof of reserves public.
There are sites who do show their bankrolls like this one;
https://www.bustabit.com/bankroll/overview

They might be showing off all of their bankroll or reserves or not then no one really knows.As long you would really be getting paid then that what matter the most.
Its not necessary for them to show off as long they do pay.Also, they are setting out max bets on each roll or bet for particular games for them to avoid
on getting bankrupt if ever do someone do be able to get some huge hit.They arent dumb on not to make those limitations because
it would be totally over for the said business if they arent minding on doing so.
1603  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cash out or wait till the end on: November 12, 2022, 10:30:05 AM
Bro, I would've cashed out at that profit. You got greedy the second time, should've learned the lesson from the first time it happened.
Just imagine how much you already made from a $70 bet. That 5 times your capital which also gives you 5 times the opportunity to do it again and who knows you might get the same result next time.
You can just do it over and over again and you will make more money. That's the perks of betting online, the cashout options. I do it on Stake.com most of the time when I see even twice or 3 times the profit.
People are different when it comes to mindset on which it might be that a waste of opportunity for you but for others it would be a nice call considering that they had the chance on getting the winning in full.
This is where people do end up on proceeding on what they do have in mind.If they wish up to make more money or profits then they would really be taking up risk.If they are really that contented on the current
amount that they are seeing then they would eventually pull it out.So it does really vary on someones liking and perceptions since every person is really different into different things.
Yes, it is really giving out that kind of regret when you do miss out on cashouting the win mid-way and eventually lose up totally in the end but what if it do able to win?
This is the primary thing that they would be thinking on.
1604  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Many people don't understood one thing crypto bounty hunters on: November 11, 2022, 11:50:20 PM
The bigger then money the more people will want to take bounty Job.
If you mean bounty allocation, surely a bigger allocation will attract more people to join.
However, most people know that the big allocation of money can end with nothing if it is not escrowed. So, the escrowed bounty payment seems more interesting than a bigger bounty payment allocation. Especially if the payment is in the top coins, not in the new coins.

Big allocation or budget or partition would be totally useless since most of the projects would really be paying up with their own tokens which means that their value isnt known yet.
No matter how generous or big the staking would be giving out or allocation but if these tokens would be ending up on having no value then all of your efforts and hard work would
such come to waste and this is why bounty hunting is never been that good or ideal to do nowadays because of this reason.It would be only worth if you do join up on a
campaign or bounties which do pay up on established coins like Btc and other altcoins which you could potentially make out conversion but if not then
risk is always there.
1605  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Elon Musk is one of the keys to be 100k$ per Bitcoin? on: November 11, 2022, 09:59:39 PM
Personally I dont think if Elon Musk or his tweeter account will eefect the price of bitcoin that much because we already saw his tweets in the past and people will not trust his tweets like before and even if his tweets effect the price I guess this effect is just going to be temporary and short-term
Elon Musk was a great influencer but that was just before when people still trusted him that much. Although he is still able to create an impact even from his tweet but we know it only lasted for days so I cannot tell if he can be a source for bitcoin to reach $100k per piece. He’s good and smart, but he’s never enough for a long time surge for bitcoin because he’s no longer that bitcoin influential anymore.
Even though we do say that it wont work anymore, then look at on how it did really affect Doge price on the time that he had bought Twitter officially? He didnt make out any words or steps on that but
the market did really make out that kind of reaction which does simply means that we cant really be sure nor make out some conclusions that Elon cant really make out some significant impact whenever
he do decides on making some shill towards Bitcoin or other coins.We might have those experiences back in the past about those manipulative acts of Elon
but the entire community cant really just able to ignore nor refuse on what are the probabilities for the prices to react on.
1606  Economy / Gambling / Re: Black Friday fever: do you wait for extra bonuses from casinos? on: November 11, 2022, 09:23:17 PM
Which players do not want to get extra bonuses from casinos? As long as the extra bonus is something reasonable without crazy requirement, for sure players will be happy to take the extra bonus. To be more specific for Black Friday, I think it is rare to find bonuses from casino in this event. You have your own casino, how if you offer bonus to your active players as well as to new players? Dont you think it will be an effective way of marketing?

The black Fridays started being just for general shopping and then it came the cybermonday for electronics and the like. I wonder if the casinos could get all in an agreement and start promoting... I do not know, the PlayTuesday  Grin Jokes apart, promotion should be taken very seriously, since the budget for gambling also competes with the rest of the expenses in leisure and entertainment.
If we do talk about this event then this couldnt be consider for overall audience considering that Black friday is pertaining about US event or holiday or something like that
which we know that players on a certain platform could really be on all over the world which simply implies that it wont really be that relevance nor they dont really even know
on what it is all about which it would be still ending up on those normal days on launching up some promotions and bonuses but hey.
Who doesnt really like bonuses? As long the terms and conditions are realistic and achievable then that what matter the most.

Well, I really like this event, except that the merchants in the shopping centers are very clever, what they do is increase the price of all the products and make the discount stay at the price they had before, I don't know if in the USA the thing is respected and they really have a Black Friday discount, but what happens in Ecuador is like this, it has happened to me a couple of times, so events like that don't give me any emotion, in the casinos I'm waiting Let's see what bears they can offer us, and if they offer them? I see that there are many contests that they do, but Black Friday is something interesting and that attracts attention.

When you do see discounts and if you are really that experienced or does know about basic or typical goods when it comes to its value or price then you cant really be fooled with those on sale goods.
Its part of marketing strategy of any merchants or business owners specially on a physical shop or store that has something to offer.On a season or event then it would really be usually can be seen
but those sales are instead doesnt really offer great deal and you would be realizing it on the time or after you had purchased.  Grin
When it comes to casino bonuses then it wont be that surprising that they will neither be or not be offering such bonuses get in line with this.
1607  Economy / Economics / Re: Investing against 2024 on: November 10, 2022, 10:55:21 PM
I think it's wise to invest smartly against 2024, there is high tendency of hitting it big in crypto from next year to 2024. I advise you put reasonable capital on bitcoin and few funds in altcoin. Don't sleep on this one. It's a banga!! Let's make this money together.
Lots been talking
Lots had made out these presumptions
Lots had been anticipating
Lots had been expecting

But we should really bare up into our mind that everything could really happen on a random way.There's no way that we could really be able to determine on what would be the future looks like.
Cant really be able to deny that current prices are indeed bargain but pretty sure that not all would really be that confident when it comes on making some buying
decision.Emotion would really be your primary enemy specially on these moments or times.

Tip 1: Use trusted platforms with KYC
this is really what we need to do. Many platforms have been popped out and most of them are scams or fake accounts.
 - never rely on feedback as sometimes it was also manipulated
 - do what is recommended by most
 - trust only the person we know in real life, not strangers

KYC is optional but of course, if that is certainly needed knowing that the said platform can be trusted.
Having KYC doesnt automatically means that they are legit considering that there are scam platforms who could ask out for that kind of verification and just simply shut off and closed their doors.
There are still several factors which you do really need to see and confirm that you are dealing with the right service or platform.You cant really be just going for single identification and always
be finding out ways on how to determine and verifying that you are dealing with the right thing. Be just having the common sense and be that realistic when it comes to that
on where you could really potentially able to avoid things if you are that fully aware.
1610  Economy / Gambling / Re: What is the best thing to do if this happens on: November 09, 2022, 11:29:52 PM
You can easily take action if you're with a legitimate and highly reputable casino site but if you're gambling with a scam site, I guess it will be hard for you to get paid since that's their common scamming strategy. The important things that you should do is to provide legal proof to that you didn't violate any of their TOS and have clearly read and understood all of it and that you've complied with all their requirements. Make sure that you can support and justify your claims with legal evidence.
It is important in those cases to begin to gather all the evidence that you can if you think the casino is trying to get away with not paying you, now we must also learn the difference between a legitimate casino just checking that everything is alright and verifying that there was no cheating and a casino trying to scam you, because if the win is really big even trusted casinos will need to go through a series of steps in order to confirm that your win is legitimate, and once that happens you will be paid.
Solid evidence should really be provided so that the community would be able to say that you are telling the truth and not just simply trolling around because community wont really be giving out their advises and
sympathy if they wont really be able to see that the thing been complaint was real or just joking.Whenever a certain gambler or user had experienced these locked or hold funds then it would really be
sensible that negotiations would be happening first in between the user and the casino.If the user hadnt get some convincing answers or explainations then this is where these issues
should be posted on forums and if things turns out not to be able to get resolved then legal actions should be made up too.
1611  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Falls To Sub-$17,000 After the FTX Exchange Demise on: November 09, 2022, 10:10:23 PM
I think 12K for 1 BTC would be a great price in the next 2 weeks Smiley
I do actually have the funds for that if ever we would be dumping out that low but considering on the current value which is playing around $15k then it wont really be that a bad thing on buying cheap Bitcoin.
The market is in total reds now because of that FTX situation which we cant really be able to point out other relevant events which might be potentially attached to it.
Manipulation? Something which other people been throwing out.Instead of freaking out and minding and stressing yourself about the cause or the reason.It would be always
be best if you do consider on buying as of this moment and make out some DCA if the price do gets even more lower.
1612  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Parents And Their Children In Gambling.. on: November 09, 2022, 08:58:37 PM

It all depends on the nature of the person in choosing friends, even though they are in a gambler's family environment, even though each child has a different nature but the role of friends in the social environment can affect a person, even though there is a term (fruit doesn't fall far from the tree) that term sometimes often pinned by people, to be the family of the gambler, the role of friends in life can be good or vice versa so it all depends on how they choose friends in their environment..
Being surrounded by bad influence friends can influence a person even if he or she grew into a good environment in their family. That's really something to be thought about in terms of behavioral process as everyone is learning new things not only from their parents, from the technology but mostly, from the surroundings and neighborhood they live in.
Several factors influence a person's lifestyle but the most powerful among them is the family the person grows into and the kind of environment they find themselves in, It is easy for a child to copy the lifestyle of the parents but it is sometimes minimal what environment contributes and even the environment a child grows into is chosen by the parent because the child can not determine the environment they grow up is the responsibility of the parent before the child was born to find a better environment for their kids.
When you are living on an environment which is your family then the things they've been doing would really be a huge factor that could really affect you as well when it comes to activities and other related things
that they are commonly been doing.It is really just normal that kids or children or other family members would really be that influenced and this is where parenting and guidance would be setting in.
Us parents arent that dumb like to see that our children do messes up their lives but when you are on a condition which you do have the money or finances then it is really not surprising
that parents did really ignore or cant really do the responsibility that well and this would really be resulting into this.
1613  Economy / Speculation / Re: There will be more down - bearish on BTC on: November 09, 2022, 07:58:39 PM
We can say that the market was already looking for an excuse to fall. These recent events were just an excuse. In this way, we saw a nice decline. But I don't think this decline will stop with this. I expect we'll see 13 thousand dollars. Cz knew it would be like this in a way. It worked for him, too. Both the market has fallen and the confidence in ftx is over. The important thing will be the next developments.
Wasnt expecting that exchange problems in between binance and ftx could really make soo much effect whereas we've been just seeing it as an ordinary daily news that could happen in the market
but honestly i do have those bad doubts that there's something would happen in the market considering on the essence or vibe of such news and here we are now which we are seeing the price
is going this low or we had never seen before after how many years.Whom who would really be have thoughts on going back on 16k? It could even possibly hit up
10k if this trend or severity of decline would be continuing but lets hope that it wont.
1614  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Are we going to recover or continue to dump? on: November 08, 2022, 09:12:08 PM
Now it is very difficult to make forecasts. To be honest, the times are quite difficult, and the situation on the market changes quite often and often quite abruptly.
The market movement changes everytime that it is very complex and difficult to forecast the market. The market is always confusing difficult for an ordinary trader that do not have good experience about the market to be able to predict the market since we keep moving for bear to bull without knowing the next move of the crypto market.
We just needed to be optimistic of the market condition right now so that we can benefit from the market when the  bull season comes. Those who buy now and hold will benefit huge when we finally get to the bull season.
Take a look on whats happening now on which the price is starting to decrease which does simply proves out that his market is truly unpredictable.There's no way that we could really able to know on where it would
be heading on.Recovery or dump? It isnt something that you could really know very well because this market is highly speculative.This is why we us crypto investors do really need to bare out that certain risk involved
with it whenever do make out some decisions on buying out. Profitability will really be depending on how wise you are on taking profits when it do really starts to rise up or buy when it do starts
to go down.This is why decisions be made will be totally depending on you.
1615  Economy / Gambling / Re: I won 1500 dollars on a ufc fight + quit gambling on: November 08, 2022, 07:51:26 PM
<......>

Congratulations to you OP, that's a big amount of winning and also that's a good decisions to quit in gambling because you already have a profit but before that like what other user said above make sure to withdraw it first in order to prevent such loss. But in my own I don't think so if you are permanently quit in the world of gambling because once you are experiencing a good amount of winning then theres a chance that you will be gamble once again.

I have seen many stories similar to this, where a player makes a lot of profits, but because he gets very excited and wants to make more money, he ends up losing everything, and that is what should be avoided because a person who has money is better than not. nothing, I'm one of the players that when they get some profit, they withdraw at once, because I know that if I keep playing I lose it, or another strategy is that I'm going to play something else, but little, what interests me is to try luck and if I see that I have no chance I'll go with my earnings, it's better to have the money and enjoy it than not having anything because I lost it in a very foolish way, and there are people who don't mind losing that amount of money.

When you are on an emotional boost up then you could really say up things on what you do have in mind but just like the rest been saying that it is really hard to believe that you could quit up
when you are on a winning state.For losing state then it would really be just normal but for winning? Its really hard for it to be done by someone.You could really be rather thinking off on playing
even more because you do really believe that you could even getting more if you do decide to play more.So quitting on this situation or scenario is close to 0% but if you are a man
or person who do have that strong will and extreme self-discipline then it could be possible but its really hard to believe on imho.
1616  Economy / Economics / Re: Competition in business on: November 07, 2022, 11:59:51 PM
In my opinion with the competition it will have a good impact, the products or services produced will be more attractive, quality, better service and of course cheap prices, most people are afraid So we must learn good business rules and that we can get by often attending training or seminars.
When competence increases, the beneficiaries were the consumers. The consumers get big list and the quality will be kept high to stay on the lead. Keeping the consumers stable without moving to some other store is the real capability of a businessman. This art is the competence in business than just improving the service and the products offered.
It gives the consumers a lot of options where they are comfortable with their services and product as the price won't really just matter but their services as well. I support fair and healthy business competition and see this as a reason for them to be more responsible with their action knowing that the consumers are there to give critics of what they did.

That is why if I am in business, I love to hear feedback from the customers as it places an important role in how we can improve our services and products.
The more the merrier.Right?  Wink

The ones who do create out business will be particularly be that minding about on how to get profits and on how to make themselves more better compared into other competition.
It is really just right that you would really be doing all sorts of things and made up new offering which the public didnt able to experience or known.
Just like the rest been saying that having more options is more better which we can really choose up on whatever things that really suits out our budget.
Competition is common yet you cant really be running a business solely.
1617  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Poll: In your opinion is this the end for Bitcoin/Cryptocurrency? on: November 07, 2022, 09:10:37 PM
We are still in the first phase and it will be continuing for future. Bitcoin is growing day by day and many people from all over the world are joining with it. Then why it will be end? We are in the digital age and it is not a good idea to think without digital currency. Blockchain technology will help to make our life easier. I hope we will be able to see new ATH within 1 year again.
People that are expecting bitcoin to end soon are people that have not known the importance of Bitcoin and the future of finance. Maybe they are seeing bitcoin as one of the reinvented ponzi schemes, perhaps a bubble that will bust any moment.
To be very fair, bitcoin has passed the level of anyone expecting it to end any moment. Bitcoin is more than a decade old and this is a clear finance future.

I acknowledge that the Bitcoin we see today might not be the Bitcoin we will see tomorrow, there could be changes but it remains bitcoin and will continue to run on blockchain.

he big dream could be to have a world of automation, where everything is programmed and payments are made without reversal or confirmation by any human.
There's no certain if we do talk about future but existing and been mainly supported for a decade time do already shows a solid proof that it does have a bright future and as long the community would really be
mainly considering and supporting it then it cant really be denied that it would be still existing on future generations to come.We dont know on how long but at least we do know
on what we are dealing with.Speaking about ending or making up conclusions then this is something i dont really prefer on doing so.
Market is truly unpredictable and there's no man could ever tell on when it would be its end or when it would really be skyrocketing when it comes into its price.
1618  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have your winnings lured someone into gambling ? on: November 07, 2022, 07:59:48 PM
For me i do not believe that gambling winnings lure anyone into gambling, what these big winnings does is that it gives people false hope, false believes that it could be them winning if they do not give up gambling; which in turns gives betting companies more money and more addicted gamblers.

Also, we must nurture the habit of staying away from gambling after having a winning; else you would lose all again

I'll tell you more. Emotions that a gambler experiences while winning or losing are very similar to those of a trader. Such emotions can change the perception of the environment and in this state it is very easy to make a mistake that will lead to serious losses.

That's why I support your point of view about taking a break from gambling as it will save you not only from reckless spending but also will save your health.
Acquiring too much stress and anxiety and other emotional things could really give out some effect on someones health which we know that these things can't really only be experienced via doing gambling but also
in other things that we are doing in our lives which can potentially do make out these kind of effects which you could really say that this isnt limited on certain conditions or circumstances.
Lured out someone on the way you do bet? I dont think so because each person around me does have their own will on what they should gonna do in their lives whether
they do let someone do inspires them or would be totally independent on what they are tending to do.
1619  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Friends and Family members want me to invest for them, help! on: November 07, 2022, 06:58:17 PM
In my country up to 7 people I knew very well ( friends and family ) want me to help them invest money in crypto, after telling them the risk involved and how it will be better if they learn themselves they turn the idea down..

Now they want me to invest their own money on coins and they aren't ready to choose the coins they will like themselves.

After thinking this through and through I started feeling like they are doing this to hold me responsible if something goes wrong.

Is my thoughts right? If you are in my shoes what will you do?
I would simply ignore on such manner or situation on which its never been a good feeling when you do know that you do get a hold of some funds that had been invested which isnt yours or simply you've been

entrusted up by their funds which means if ends up on negative then pretty sure you would really be get blamed of it which this is the thing where i dont really like specially when someone do really entrust their money.

Better to suggest that they should invest on their own and just simply provide with the basics of information in regarding crypto.If they insist then its up to you if you do let yourself
but its better that you would just simply reject or ignore.
I did experience one of my relatives or simply my cousin do really likes for me to invest his funds in behalf of him.I have told already about the risk that you could potentially lose money
and then he agreed but on the time where extreme bearish market had come then he starts on freaking out, asking if his investment were okay and not really suffering too much negative
or losses which i had told the truth where it had been going lower drastically and this is where things starts on being nasty where he had spoken up some
words which isnt something or should be spoken off and that time which relation been affected.
1620  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you get over a bad loss? on: November 05, 2022, 02:12:40 AM
I get over a bad loss by watching comedy videos and hanging out with friends or sometimes go somewhere peaceful most epecially the seashore where you can only hear and see nature. Sometimes depending on the weather here if I am not able to go out I play games but not all the time as it can also give me stress, though I play MIR4 and PUBG.
There are lots of ways since there are different interest where people been involved into.If they could really make themselves get along on watching movies on easing out anger or disappointment, then they would definitely be doing that. Whereas there are people who are interested on doing sports or other physical activities on which they could really make out distraction into themselves and continue to deal up.
Overcoming emotion is something that really very that hard when you dont really know on how to control your emotion.Getting over would really be that easy if you dont mind much
about your gambling losses and could easily move on but there are people who cant just do it simply.
