1301  Economy / Speculation / Re: Should I buy now or I should still wait for the dip? on: July 19, 2023, 10:10:05 AM
I don't think BTC will drop below $30k this time. I mean, you should make your own decision, I'm just sharing my opinion. I'm buying it now to be prepared for the pump.
This is why he is here with us, with this post/thread because he can't decide for himself so he wants our opinion instead if what actions he must be doing. For now maybe BTC won't drop below $30k but later on, I still believe it can, so I suggest the OP to wait for it if he wants some discounts. The halving time or the bull time is still a long way to go so I'm confident about my prediction.

For those who will buy early like you, you can still hold hard if the price declines so that you will avoid losing and maybe on top of that you can continue buying for more. It is only wrong to buy when the price is at their highest peak already because after that is usually followed by a bear market and it will take a long time for us to see recovery or a bull run again.
1302  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Quit gamble! Easy or Hard? Let's talk. on: July 19, 2023, 08:32:19 AM
Well, this thing about live games and live betting is something I haven't done because I don't like things to change from one moment to the next, that's why when I make sports bets it's before the game starts, because that's how I did it and that's it, if I lose then I lose, but if I make a good bet and then I change it and win I put that at the beginning, because the bitter taste of that defeat is like greater, that's why I don't make bets on the course. of a sport

There are people who like to change their bets while the game is running, they will do well, I couldn't, and I really don't have the experience of doing it. I would like to make this type of bet just to try it out because I can't deny that it catches my eye and I don't know if I would feel comfortable doing it, but at some point I will.

Everything when it comes to betting, our brain plays a very important role sending signals that you can win and that everything is possible, obviously when the pooprtundiades of betting in the live and direct game are made or given, I feel that it is distorted a bit. It's not my decision because I tell myself, I have the opportunity to change this, because if I don't change it I lose, but at the same time another part tells me not to change it and to trust my judgment, this also depends on the preference that the person has for bet.
We are getting a bit off the topic here but for the sake of the discussion you are doing, I'll say that you need a lot of luck to be able to make it through when you make live bets on a usual basis, those who do that understand the games and the teams pretty well, and even after that, they might have to face a lot of losses because even the strongest team can sometimes lose against a side that is the least favorite in a tournament or whatever is going on.

It also makes the odds lower when you bet when a match has already started, let's say you could get 2.1x if you had bet on a team before the match started but you will get 1.7x as soon as the match starts and it keeps decreasing as the match continues until betting is closed for everyone.
1303  Economy / Gambling / Re: Whats happening with Betnomi? on: July 19, 2023, 07:29:30 AM
It is obvious betnomi behaved this way. If they did make a statement, possibly the medium through which the message was passed across was not strong enough because from the response i have read here it seems many people were not aware of it and that shows that there was a strong communication gap between the betnomi team and their client which is not good. However be the case, the did has been done and i believe they are trying their possibly best to remedy the situation as people who's funds are stuck are running out of patience and possibly calling the casino a scam which i believe if the time frame elongates or elapses without any positive response from the team, it would be assumed they did all these intentionally and that would attract flags and more of scam accusations against them and if there is any one making any accusations, they would have to provide an evidence before they would be given the attention they desired.
Communication and transparency are two of the most crucial aspects for a project or a platform to have with their community if they don't want their reputation to get ruined for any reason, if there is even a small issue, even if a bug is found which has disturbed a few players or customers, they should even make an announcement about that and let their community know that they do care about all the things happening so that their customers can have some confidence and more trust on them.

Betnomi is making the situation worst as time is passing, and this is going to ruin their reputation very badly, and I believe it has already started. There is always a limit to someone's patience, once that limit is crossed, one cannot be patient anymore and they will do what they think is right then, and their players will do that as well.
1304  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Olympic Games, but doping is allowed?! on: July 19, 2023, 06:00:29 AM
The real spirit of sports lies in the stamina of the player. When they were allowed to use dope and other drugs, automatically the performance will be much on the drugs support and nothing comes out of the player. These kind of decisions were completely dangerous and the same could be a big blow in the upcoming generation's sporting life. Already from the very small age kids have begun to consume drugs and now this will make it much easier for them.
They cannot be considered true sports players because they have used drugs to help increase their stamina, which should have been banned in sports associations. Someone has to have the courage to reject this idea for whatever reason because many impacts can arise for players and people who idolize players. And consuming chemical drugs like that might have a bad impact on their health in the future. So the sports association, sports committee, or whatever you call it, should react strongly to reject it.
It will also be unfair to the people who have created records in the past if some of these players using drugs to enhance their abilities break their records because the ones who created them in the past didn't do anything like this and have made those records all with their own energy and skills and not with the help of some pills or drugs that enhance one's abilities to perform way better than a person who isn't on drugs, this shouldn't be allowed at all.

I also wonder how would people take any interest in games where they know the players have taken skill-enhancing pills to perform better, how would the fans of specific players react who are involved in these games know that their favorites are not performing well because they play well but it is all because they are on pills.
1305  Economy / Gambling / Re: FreeBitco.in is no longer a KYC free casino! (New terms) on: July 19, 2023, 04:22:29 AM
I somehow aware of this is going to happen one day or other, their user base has been increasing rapidly over the years, and they were surely going to get noticed by the authorities and they would never allow them to keep operating without a license since they are offering a lot of services to their customers. I also think that they might be making some upgrade or something and that might be the reason why they are doing all this just to prepare the platform for the update.

However, this is surely going to change the pace in which they were gaining users because there were no requirements like these before and users used to join without any hesitation or restrictions no matter where they used to be from which is not the case anymore since they have restrictions for certain jurisdictions.
1306  Economy / Gambling / Re: 🚀-Sportsbet.io-🚀 - Main sponsor of Southampton FC 👋👋 on: July 18, 2023, 05:41:23 PM
To have a front shirt sponsorship is not really a must, plus it is not a must to have it with a premier league club neither. I get it, it is one of the most watched leagues in the world, probably the most watched one. But that also means it is also one of the most expensive one as well and if you could just focus on getting like something else, then it might work and it could do better as well.

For example, get like some French and Italian teams, not the biggest names, but a bit like mid table, or even lower level, that would make it so that they are at least in two big leagues all together, and combined view counts may pass, maybe even go as far as a German one for third if any money is left over, that could make it better.
1307  Economy / Gambling / Re: BC.GAME do not support on: July 18, 2023, 11:10:11 AM
I would like to leave here my indignation with BC.Game. I've been trying to solve a problem for 3 weeks and the support only knows how to open tickets and promise deadlines that they don't meet. The problem is, I'm entitled to an affiliate reward. But I don't think the site wants to pay. Anyone else having problems with this site?
OP, BC.Game gambling site has representatives here who can handle problems especially for their users, you can visit them here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5088875.0

Or you can directly contact their representative about the affiliate prize you mean, I think if you really have an absolute win, if you are not satisfied with the support in their chat, maybe you can try to discuss with @BC.GAME, to solve your ticket problem, just try contacting hopefully there will be a satisfying answer for you.
I think he already knows this. He didn't mean to say that BC.GAME doesn't have a costumer support but what he really mean is that their support team isn't solving his issue. It's not the first time I see someone who complain about BC.GAME affiliate rewards but maybe they are all the same people. Not that I'm defending the casino but maybe these people can't move on that they didn't get their reward because they did something inappropriate. They think it's easy to game the system but they are wrong.

There is another concern about affiliate reward which states that BC.GAME decreases their affiliate rewards. I think this is official and happens to all. Well, if they don't like it, they better leave. Complaining here about it, doesn't help.
1308  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What could make you get into a fight with your fellow gambler? on: July 18, 2023, 09:51:34 AM
This is exactly what will get me into a fight with my partner, I mean, I would first discuss everything before placing the bet, but if he still does something like this, I won't back up because I have already settled the things at the beginning and if he brings up something new now and says he will take extra just because of something that doesn't really make any sense, what if it was his account, the money was equally merged so that prize should be equally distributed as well.

I'm actually not a fan of doing things this way to be honest, I believe one should do everything by their own and shouldn't have any kind of partnership with anyone because there are always problems when you partner up with someone especially if there is money involved in the partnership.

It's good that you're open to recommendations,  the sale will only last for 7 days not enough time for massive promotions, could have been better if you can launch a bounty campaign like what Betfury and Owldao did in their crowdfunding I wish you good luck, just be active here, the community support platforms where there is an active representative to give us an update on the status of the platform.   
It's for their own good so they need to apply what is being told by the users here. Pre-sale is usually shorter than a normal selling period but I think most projects has more than 7 days allocation. It can again be beneficial to their project to gather more funds as early as possible, to be used for their operations and to the development of the project.

Signature campaign is usually being requested by the users in the forum but they can also do a bounty campaign along with it if they want more reach and/or if they have more budget. The last important thing for a project to be successful is their activity in their communities most especially here in Bitcointalk.
1310  Economy / Gambling / Re: Promote Your Gambling Platform for FREE on: July 18, 2023, 04:24:55 AM
I'm honestly curious about your forum platform. Then I saw there were Tfc faucets at the same time there was "Get your share from the TFC" what does that mean? Is this Tfc listed on another exchange? Does it have value now? Or are you promoting it?

You guys still have a lot to improve on your forum platform, and it seems that your forum platform is still far from being like bitcointalk. And the gambling thread section board is not yet on your site. But I will also try to study.
I know a crypto faucet can give you free coins right after you solve a captcha but when I check their post, I can't seem to find any faucet there. The link given is like a block explorer only. About the "Get your share from the TFC" that you are talkin about, there is already a detailed explanation about it on their forum.

For the question if their coin is already listed or not, I think it isn't yet because I can't find details about it in their forum and as well as in Google. Maybe it was still a new project and yes he is promoting it here. They already have a gambling board. You can find it by clicking home and then you need to scroll down. Unfortunately it doesn't have any posts yet.
1311  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you been threaten to stop gambling on: July 18, 2023, 02:36:54 AM
We are been threatened to stop gambling only when we are observed making loses in every game we stake although it is not something expected to be gaining always that is why it is termed GAMBLING. I can remember while we were still kids our parents would not want to see us in any gambling hall and will even threaten to disown us at a point if you are been caught gambling you will be troubled and may even decide not to go home but as time goes on they began to understand the reasons for our interest in gambling and also discovered that we were never addict but risk takers
You were lucky if that was the case, our parents wouldn't even let us play with cards saying that it is not a good thing even when we didn't have anything on a bet which means it is just a simple game and not gambling if they would see us gambling somewhere, that would be the day when we used to know what will happen when we go home, you can't survive the anger of the parents after something like that, and they will surely beat you up when you are back home.

But, we actually never gambled when were kids, we did use to play with cards but we never wagered money on it because it was not allowed and we were also not interested and we used to do that only to pass our time and not to gamble and win each others money since it used to be us cousins only.
1312  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What kind of rewards/bonuses do you prefer? on: July 17, 2023, 12:08:40 PM
I consider myself as ordinary gambler and I'm not rich too but in fact I can reach VIP level (not that high). It takes long time indeed to reach my current VIP level in the casinos, I have 2 accounts with similar VIP account level in 2 different casinos. Saying that VIP level is just for those who are rich enough to waste money is completely wrong. Remember that there are some levels of the VIP program, even the lowest Level with low wagering requirement is already considered as VIP.
That is a good thing that most reputable casinos,you can achieve the lowest VIP level within a very short span amount of time if you are a regular there and even if you don't play with a lot of money.These casinos make every bet you make count toward these progressive VIP levels.I think the benefits of the VIP level are very much worth it over the long run,as for example in Stake if you happen to be in a bad moment,you have some free money every weekend as a weekly boost and a decent amount for free once a month through the monthly bonus,you get them every week and month once reached the VIP level and over the long haul this is quite beneficial.
The span in which one might complete the lowest level of a VIP program basically depends on how much one is wagering for each bet or in each session, if the size of the bet is too small, it will take more time for the level to complete but if you are wagering with a higher base bet, you will definitely complete the level more quickly, and obviously, every bet counts towards the XP for the level of your VIP status within the platform.

And the benefits are not only worth it in the long run, but the benefits are useful for the short term as well because you generally either get some balance or free bets from your VIP status so that you can gamble even if you don't have money at a certain moment which is great.
1313  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: July 17, 2023, 10:48:05 AM
PSG is planning their summer well and i am impressed. Buying back Xavi Simons from PSV after an excellent season in Netherland is a good move; it means now that there is Asensio and Simon on the flanks for PSG; With Neymar or Mbappe poised to leave; PSG has that covered.

Also, PSG are interested in signing Juventus striker Vlahović; it would be a proper squad building attempt if they get all signings.
Look like now change of thinking working for this club, and they are going to have good season ahead many big names are already out and if in near future they lost Neymar or Mbappé then surely it's not going to have any problem for them because they are already doing few changes which are going to bring better results for them specially arrival of Asensio and now as talk is going on for the Vlahović we can expect improvement even many are having good attachment with Mbappé but for me now its time is already ended, and they need to sell him with this could be good chance for the PSG.

Here Neymar which is without any doubt big player, but injuries ruin his spell here at PSG can play good role until end of his career because most chances no other club is going to have him on his current salary and price, hopefully he will also give his good contribution for improved quality.
1314  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are successful gamblers seen as addicts? on: July 17, 2023, 08:31:25 AM
Someone who is successful at gambling would have to be incredibly smart. I would think that a successful gambler is less likely to have addiction issues. Addicts are motivated purely by greed and emotion and will ignore all logic. To be a successful gambler you need to think rationally. If you become so obsessed with winning more and more money that it leads to an unhealthy addiction then it will be difficult to remain successful.
The addiction thing is so bad I also agree that successful gamblers are not seen as addicts. Their knowledge and skills are high, greed does not touch them that's why they are successful. A successful gambler needs a lot of hard work and dedication also the first rule of online gambling here is low expectations. No, it is not to say that successful gamblers are not guaranteed to win instead they don't always expect to win no matter how small so gamble for fun and avoid any pressure to win.
A successful gambler doesn't gamble for fun, obviously, because their primary focus is to gain money enough to sustain a month so that they don't need to do anything else, and it may doesn't happen all the time because even successful gamblers lose, but they generally gamble with discipline and they never chase their losses because they have experience and they know it is not going to do anything and they will lose even more if they try and recover the losses.

So a gambler that follows discipline can never get addicted to gambling, they can always control their mind and decide whether they want to gamble some day or not or what should their routine and schedule should be for gambling, so successful gamblers shouldn't be considered gambling addicts.

I don't think that Bangladesh will win even one match of T20 and ODI series. Bangladesh players performed very well in the last T20 match as well. But unfortunately, they could not win. But Bangladesh did not make any mistakes in the first ODI match. They played well. But I will say Bangladesh won because of great bowling. The batting of Bangladesh players was quite weak. Bangladesh Women's batsmen need to play more responsibly if they want to win the ODI series. Otherwise, they will be defeated in the next matches.
As Indian-w gone bowling and restricted Bangladesh-w on target of 152 mostly were feeling things are going to be much easier for them because they have few well experienced batsmen, but we have collapsed from the Indian-w team and all team bowled out for just 113 runs and give Bangladesh-w win by 40 runs Marufa Akhter and Rabeya Khan done good bowling with not allowed Indian-w batsmen to play freely and take wickets regularly which helps them for having win in this first match of ODI series.

After winning toss and having bowling first was good decision by Indian-w as their bowlers were also on target and have good job specially Amanjot Kaur on debut have 4 wickets which is good start for her with Indian w, but sadly this was not enough for having win in this match now things looking interesting for the second ODI with good contest is going to be expected.
1316  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tennis League All Thread on: July 17, 2023, 05:49:59 AM
It was a very interesting match, easy first win for Djokovic, Alcaraz comes back to win the
next 2 sets with a 19 minute game thrown into the mix, Djokovic comes back to take the
fourth to go the full distance, just like a true champion.

Djokovic REALLY wanted this one for many reasons, its all about records at this stage for him,
and he let his frustrations and emotions out.

Really great win from Alcaraz, winners mentality to never give up until its over.
This was a great miss for Djokovic. The win is marked as the beginning of new era.
Since 2002 it is the first time the winner of Wimbledon is other than Federer, Nadal,
Murray and Djokovic. 7 times Wimbledon title winner have fallen to the young one.
If this had been won by Djokovic he could've levelled the record with Federer winning
8 titles. Till the last moment the match went as a thriller and the service were at the
bullet speed from both.
20 years old Spaniard done impressive job and change the tennis era with first person who win this big title and now having good chance for the staying at the top for long time because there is no serious contender in front of him if he has no serious injury things could be much better for his rule on tennis in future.

I was not expecting to win like this for him because Djokovic is surely GOAT at Wimbledon but in this final game he has done a good number of mistakes which bring his rule here after first two sets there were expectations he will end this all in four sets but this time Alcaraz was on his best and fight back with bang which helps him for having his first Wimbledon title.

Look like Serbian was tired as he has too many mistakes which allow his opponent to have better result even today he was going to have good chance for bringing himself to the level of Roger Federer, but now we have to wait for the another year.
1317  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: A check on your wallet on daily basis can earn you some dollar on: July 17, 2023, 04:49:33 AM
You are probably not a day trader or someone who is actively buying or selling cryptocurrencies or even collecting tokens by either bounties, airdrops, etc., because a person doing any of that would obviously have at least one check on their wallet every day, I used to have some Bitcoins in my wallet back in the day when the price of it was way lower than $60k, I used to keep checking the wallet every day to see if they are increasing or decreasing.

And I don't think that a person can actually get any time to buy and sell such tokens which go high in such large percentages because they can rug pull any time and you will lose all your money if you have made a purchase and it rug pulls and doesn't even let you sell your tokens even at a loss.

This is literally the first time I'm getting to know that something like this exists that can save you the hassle of running here and there only to get the money someone late left you or your family. Banks along with courts make you do a lot of paperwork and visit a lot of places meet a lot of people getting signatures and whatnot only to get what is righteously yours, that does make one safe from all the drama and stress as you said.

I really appreciate the information you shared and I will definitely get my POD form from my bank once I have a significant amount stored in there so that I can pass it on to my children to save them all the hassle and doing all those paperwork visiting different offices around the city.

Like someone else, what attracted me to gambling is the ability to multiply my money while enjoying playing the game for a short period of time. It was later on that I know the risks. After that, I only play gambling responsibly. Those analysts you are telling forgot that manipulations can happen too in gambling. Those who does that will have a 100 percent winning rate.

Your friend is lucky to meet you because if not then maybe he already ended his life due to depression cause by gambling. We should not compare our selves to others because like you said, some are just lucky, some are skillful, and some has the guts to do a risky thing only to win in gambling.
1320  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is more important for crypto users? on: July 15, 2023, 05:28:10 PM
Gambling is something completely different from cryptocurrency, but the usage of bitcoin into gambling in its beginning days makes it more related. Some believes that cryptocurrency is developed to fulfill the gambling industry as people expected anonymity with their gambling activities. This isn't true, because the reason behind the innovation is to fulfill things that weren't got perfect with the banking system and to eliminate the third man involvement.
Bitcoin doesn't provide anonymity to anyone in gambling platforms even if they are using Bitcoin to gamble, they have their accounts verified with KYC, and the transactions they make are directly linked to their accounts which have their identity, if authorities want to know who is behind a certain transaction, they can simply inquire from the casino or the licensing firm and they will provide them the information they require since casinos are regulated.

The only big advantage Bitcoin provided the online gambling industry at the beginning was fast transactions, people were able to deposit and withdraw their funds very easily and quickly from the casinos which was not the case with fiat before Bitcoin was introduced in the gambling industry.
