I would advice anyone to stay away from alts for now until the dust settles. The price seems to unstable at the moment, going to $25k, coming back to $23k, and then back to $25k and then again to $24k and a bit stable. There are traps all around, and if you buy an alt that gets stuck in between these movements, you will end up losing a part of your capital.

It's better to wait for the price to either drop lower to rise higher from these points, especially the $25k mark. Though it did cross it two times in two days but it couldn't manage to hold it there.

He says that he was required to wager the deposit amount 5x, which means, if he deposited $500, he must have a total wagered amount of $2,500 which is 5x of $500, but, in the process of reaching that threshold, he lost his capital and only $59 remained for him to withdraw from his initial deposit and after all the wins and losses.

About the cancelled bets, the support, as shown in the screenshots he included, has told him that the bets were cancelled by the game provider and that the initial bet amount has been refunded to him. So, there's also a possibility that the amount was refunded but since he was still placing bets, he didn't notice that.

That is probably the most important thing because if you are a big VIP and have your own host, that means you are already spending a ton of money, and when you are spending that much money here, it is normal to expect things to be handled quickly. If you deposited 100 dollars, and won 200 more, you may face some issues withdrawing 300 dollars, and that's bad I agree and rarely happens here thankfully.

However if someone deposited 100k and got 200k out of it, if they fail to get 300k out? That is going to be an issue and not the same thing at all. We are not talking about a few houses worth of money in the first case, so you might as well give them their own support.

Well, it's a good thing that you already started to DCA, but as it looks like, I think we are going to see some more declines in the pipeline. It could easily touch $20k or maybe even lower, but hopefully it then recovers back from there and hit about $28k or possibly $30k.

If you have your target set at $100k, then I guess you got nothing to worry about and keep buying from every small drops adding a little every time. All that is important is to have diamond hands and not to sell before it's the right time. The best time to buy was probably when it was around $16k, if you used that opportunity, you should be good by now already.

I used to, I used to trade a lot and nowadays I do not trade at all, I mean not zero but very little, just whenever I want to and see the market moving in a certain direction.

This means that I am not going to end up with a bad result in the long run because most of my money is in long term investments which allows me to make a good chunk of money whenever bitcoin goes up, the trading losses that I could have do not matter to me all that much anymore because they are very tiny compared to amount of money I invested, it is not even 10% of what my investments are, which means if I lose it, there is a chance I could recover that in a single day when bitcoin goes up like it did recently.

You are now 5 months old in the forum and I think with that long, you already figured out that Bitcoin is undying and is the most trusted crypto. I bet you won't also invest on Bitcoin if you think that it was not trusted. In order for your friend to be convinced more on joining Bitcoin, you can show him the profits that you already earned from investing on it.

You can also share him the historical chart of Bitcoin and by there he will witness that Bitcoin can recover after each dip it gets.

Lastly, you can share the link of Bitcoin
introduction. By there he will see that Bitcoin started in the year of 2009 and it was now 2024 years old.

There are teams who are already going for the 2026 car, which will be a lot more different than what they have right now. I know that it is not looking good for them but when you know you are not good enough, it is normal to look for the future. Mclaren is one of them, they already said that they will be better with the first updates, which is a way of saying they will suck at early season and have bad car, and they said they are already building for the future.

Aston Martin is the same, they are looking for the future and experiment a bit. These are all going to matter when 2026 comes, if a team truly spends a ton of money on that car instead of these years, they may get to be amazing.

I agree that an automatic "fill with bfg" button would work wonders. That way all of the income that we get, could be turned into BFG right away and it wouldn't be in any other coin and that would not only give us a bigger return eventually, but it would also increase the price of bfg at the same time.

This doesn't have to apply to everyone, just make it optional and I would definitely pick to do that. All of my BFG goes back right again as more BFG investment and giving me even more returns and exponentially increasing. That is something I would very much like, it would actually be pretty profitable for many as well, so that option should definitely exist.

I mean just from looking at CMC past 7 day moves, very few coins are in the red, most of them are in profit right now for the past week. Which basically answers this question, but of course the month is not over yet, we have 10 more days to go and that means anything could happen, we may end up with a big drop and if that happens then it will be a blood bath.

But for now, it looks like a green day for everyone and the prices are higher. Of course not all of them are higher like the others, some like polygon are higher than what bnb did, but there are reasons for that of course. In the end, by a little, or by a lot, everything is higher these days.

Doing what you should be doing to protect your account does start with your browser though. I mean lets assume that you are using "internet explorer" which I know doesn't even exists anymore but just imagine you are using a terrible one, or you are using opera with vpn, those two things are very different from each other isn't it?

That is why it is so important to make sure you are using everything right, of course you can't just pick a good browser and say that is end of your security, you will need a lot more and there is no doubt about that but you should also care about browser AND still doo all the other different things at the same time as well.

Okay I see the video to see if what we are talking about here are little kids but no they aren't really that small kid anymore and I think with those age, they already figured and use Bitcoin. I also check to see if the amount of Bitcoin we are talking about are equivalent or less than 100 dollars because if that is the case then those kids prolly choose 100 dollars because they can already have it on hand but man the Bitcoin amount asked is 1 Bitcoin so its clear that Bitcoin is the one that they should choose.

By the way, I already saw a similar video but the amount ask is close to 1 BTC and yet, people still choose the cash. I guess the interviewer just pick up the wrong people because there are still people who are not aware with Bitcoin even though Bitcoin on that country is legal and had some appearances already.

I think the ones who are affected with it are the younger generations because they are into techy things (gadgets) and one of it are these smartphones. They can easily get binge on online games and then on social medias. Being addicted on any things is not good because it means you are over consuming/using it.

It could be true that the treatment for all kinds of addiction are the same and one of it is to avoid being exposed on the activity you are getting addiction on. Say if it's on smartphone; it's better if you just sold it. If you are also addicted in online gambling then it's a double benefit because we can also access online casinos using it.

There is no need for him to clarify because you already got it right. In gambling, there is no really safe bet here because all games has a risk even if we are playing at a low odd (high win chance game) but some bettors only use the term safe bet because they are betting smaller amounts.

What happened to @JooBra 's friend is too common. We always start small and if we see that our bankroll is rising, that is the time that our temperature rises as well and we start increasing our bets. I can even blame the casino for this before. I thought the admin is tracking my account and when I start to bet high, they made me lose intentionally xd.

Goin back on Oscars, did something happened to Fabelmans that they dropped this much in odds? I think that was a good movie and for some reason it is not seen as good. In any case, the best picture hasn't mean anything for a while now, which one would you rather be, the one that got a billion dollars in box office, or the one that won the Oscars?

I know that it matters in a reputation sense, and you will live a good life if you win, but that doesn't mean that you should be making a buck, it could mean that you barely made even, or maybe not even that. This is why if I was a producer then I would rather produce a movie that made a billion dollars, not one that won the Oscars if I have to choose between them.

It is said that they already built a big community and the members of that community are once an addicted gambler therefore their service really worked. Don't forget that not all gamblers are playing online but up until now, I think the numbers of offline gamblers are still huge compared to those who play online. If they consult on a service like the ones the @OP offered then they will be advised to stop going there.

I think they will also be given a tip on how to avoid online gambling because some of them might checked this after some time. They will need to follow it strictly or else they are only fooling themselves about stopping their bad habit.

Basically it is about bitcointalk not being too kind for them anymore, so they probably left, or at least not care about here as much as they used to, and they just focus on the website itself. I understand that LL is no longer working hard to make this big, but they are at least keeping it alive and that is the bare minimum you would require from a casino.

In a day and age, where other casinos are spending over ten million dollars a year, even as much as 50 million total, I would say that bitvest doesn't really have a bright future. Not because it is bad or anything, they are legit, but look at the companies they are competing with, it's really not that easy.

I know there is already a casino here which labelled themselves as "the most rewarding" and now we have also "the most generous casino" here? Cool but I think you are right with that because if we look at the title of their thread, there is that Lamborghini giveaway that you will see but if there is one thing that they are lacking right now then that would be the advertising part.

I haven't see that they have their campaigns here in the forum. I think any promotions are useless if without advertising because how can people see those? If they have the budget on bringing up those things then I bet they also have the budget to advertise their brand.

I did not expect PSG to lose, I know that Bayern is a good team, but they had the big three playing after certain period and still lost, that wasn't a good look for PSG, they keep failing at UCL for some reason. I wagered on them to win, they had Messi (which wasn't certain if he could play) and they brought in Mbappe later on, and that was basically all I could think of, they had to win at home against Bayern, who has been having trouble in the league, but turns out Bayern still managed to win.

I would probably bet on Bayern to win at home due to this game, and if I am lucky like this time, Bayern will lose lol, hope that doesn't happen and I could recoup some of this loss.

I understand that you mean those dead people are once helped by Bitcoin. It wasn't Bitcoin itself actually that help those people but it was those people themselves because they didn't just stand or sit there but they did something. They get up, and find opportunities. I think luck can also play a big part here.

I know many of us are lucky to came across bitcoin in a random occasion and then that was the start of their life-changing journey. Bitcoins price or any other assets might be down but it doesn't mean that investing doesn't make sense anymore. A downfall in the price is only part of it. You can just HODL and wait for the price again to recover or you can also use this moment to invest more.

Basically it is "will barcelona win the cup" and "will barcelona win this game" quite close to each other in my mind. If they win this, only Arsenal posses a trouble for them and what a trouble they are, leading premier league right now which I believe to be harder than la liga because la liga basically has two teams, premier league has multiple strong teams every year, or overall talent is higher at least.

At the end of the day, if Barcelona beats United and reaches 16, then I am pretty sure that they could also win the cup, maybe they will lose if they face Arsenal, but that is why it's so close, just two teams to beat for them, nothing more, and they can do it.
