841  Economy / Gambling / Re: FreeBitco.in-$200 FreeBTC⭐Win Lambo🔥0.2BTC DailyJackpot🏆$32,500 Wager Contest on: July 09, 2023, 06:05:29 AM
Finally got lucky today to reach my ultimate target after so many years.

Thanks to WoF spin, I got 3900 RP which I was wishing for to complete the target of 100k RP.
I don't play much on freebitco.in which is why I reach 100k RP till date but finally I have...

Well, I am sure it took years just with free RP's from rolls and WoF spins. Congrats on achieving your target! I need 55k for my next cashing, I think I will get to 100k by the end of this year... at least I hope so!

Yes ofcourse, there will be hardly few hundred RPs which I would have got from wagering and rest all of it is from the free roll and majorly WoF spins.
If it wasn't for the WoF spin then I would have probably reached 100k RP target in few more years.
I am thinking to wait for few more weeks so that I can exchange all of them to BTC.
I think instead of exchanging just 100k RP it would be better to collect some more and then exchange since we will not be able to exchange RP until we reach 100k RP again.

843  Local / India / Re: CBDC/eRuppe wallet is currently being tested! on: July 08, 2023, 02:18:17 PM
I saw this apparently they are linked up with ICICI Bank and require verification from there.


Has anyone tried this ? Whats the adv of testing it out ?

I haven't tried it till now but as I mentioned earlier their is a full video on YouTube about it by LLA. They did connect their wallet to their ICICI bank account and did a few transactions to demonstrate how it works. At the moment it will only work when someone has that wallet installed and active on their device. It is still in trial basis cannot quote any advantage for now, you can apply and give it a try if you want to use it.  

Unless they are going to gve some airdrop or something why would I help the central banksters steal more money and track people via cbdc?

LOL  Grin

Don't be expecting any airdrops from RBI unless you are a senior citizen and have applied for a pension scheme and will probably live for next 10 years.
May be the government will try to giveaway pension through eRupee in future and then you can expect the so called airdrop.

Jokes apart, eRupee is the same as INR. So the government won't be giving it away for free ofcourse.
May be in future private banks may give way few INR like 100 rs to link your wallet to their banks or something.
844  Other / Off-topic / Re: P2P E-mail [Decentralization of email services] on: July 08, 2023, 02:06:34 PM
The system has a similar operation to the blockchain, however, with the challenge of allocating more data [emails] the operation should not depend on miners or fees, only on the connection between the nodes, using the no account, just hash  Wink
The moment you consider using blockchain for projects like E-mail or social media is the moment they fall apart. I generally see two problems
- First is the fact that decentralized blockchain is a public ledger and should be stored and verified by every peer. In a payment system like bitcoin it makes some sense to do it specially since there is incentive, however it makes no sense to store everyone else's emails in your node or even relay their emails to propagate it through the network!
- Second is the way you would want to secure this chain. Any algorithm you use needs people to have an incentive to contribute to its securing, an E-mail service can not have incentive like a payment system (ie. pay to send email) or it becomes less attractive to use.
As a bonus issue: it is going to be impossible to prevent spam.

A P2P chat like messaging system is different though, it needs no "chain" and it is much easier to build and make decentralized.

reliable email that can execute smart contracts.
Why would an email need to execute smart contracts?

The question is

Why would anyone want to verify the other's email ?

In case of bitcoin, since it was a payment it was mandatory to be verified but in case of emails I don't think everyone should care to verify it.
So the " need for decentralized emails" is not really there in my perspective. It's something that should be kept private since we receive OTPs and other personal info in our emails.

What do you think?
845  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: AI can hold a Bitcoin balance, send/receive Bitcoin. Worrying? on: July 08, 2023, 01:18:09 PM
Security and data privacy are the important concerns by letting AI tool to automate sending and receiving of cryptos. I won't trust any technology no matter how much trusted they are, allowing it to access our private keys is big concern and it voids the security so if the data from software leaks then your funds are at the risk.



As folks who are bitcoin bullish do you have any concerns or worries regarding this development?

No. People who've tried chatbot (such as chatGPT) already know AI sometimes can produce wrong information. Imagine what would happen if the AI send to wrong recipient, send wrong amount or set wrong amount of transaction fee. So anyone who value their Bitcoin wouldn't let AI manage their Bitcoin.

As far as I understood, these AI tools are developed to facilitate developers to create more robust AI infrastructures with LN because earlier they were using credit cards due to which the cost was high.
It's not meant for use of regular users and in no way it mentions that regular users should give away their private keys to these AI tools.
That would be a blunder in itself and nobody with a sane mind would ever commit this mistake of giving their private key to any 3rd party.
846  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Bitcoin Faucet Free Bitcoin - For Beginner Experience on: July 08, 2023, 12:45:23 PM
Claiming faucets these days should be a school lab experiment for kids. It's not something to be claimed by regular bitcoin users.
The current price of bitcoin is so high that claiming faucets to collect a decent amount for withdrawal will take a huge amount of time.
It's not worth to spend that much time on faucets and there are other better options to work on to collect BTC.
847  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Don't consider yourself lucky on: July 07, 2023, 04:55:14 PM
That's a good point mentioned by OP. Never claim something that is not yours. If you see something valuable for free then always doubt it.
Nobody would give something away for free or at a huge discount unless something is fishy about it.
In this case, it was more like fishing for the scammers where they were showing seeds to people just to lure them into depositing money into their wallets.
848  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Virtual bug? on: July 07, 2023, 04:41:40 PM
Isnt it just miles better to try betting on verifiable real matches. I can't comprehend advantage of virtual game betting honestly. I guess I didn't even exactly understand. If its just computer programme trying to act like football/soccer game there can be 5 goals from away team. Its rare but possible even in Real life. But if something like that happens in a minute - well its impossible. Most of the time couple of minutes already pass after a team scores a goal to continue.

You are absolutely right. It's always best to bet on matches happening in real life because those have lesser chance of being manipulated.
Betting on virtual games can be risky and should be avoided all time. We never know if the game is being manipulated or not.
The chances of losing our bets on such games are higher ofcourse.

Additionally, reallife matches provide an opportunity to analyze the teams' performance and make more informed decisions thus increasing our chances of success in betting.
So it's better to stick to the safer option and enjoy the thrill of real sports.
849  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you ever felt remorse after gambling? on: July 07, 2023, 04:19:35 PM
Gambling is risky and can drain our bank accounts; I often felt remorse for my takes action, but it was only temporary, and the next day, I returned to gambling, and this time, I used everything at my disposal, disregarding the repercussions. That is completely one of the characteristics of an addict, ready to place anything valuable to raise money for gambling, but that was my previous life, and I'm a changed guy with good examples. I bet frequently, and I'm able to regulate the amount of my gambling rate; I gamble twice on weekends, and only on games that I'm confident about; if it goes according to my predictions, I enjoy; if it goes against my predictions, I lose; in any case, I liked.

It's not bad to gamble but gambling above your budget is. We should know how much we can afford to lose and only gamble within our limits.
It's always good to acknowledge your mistake and do the right thing. While you knew you were spending more on gambling you still took control started saving.
Not everyone has the capability to do that. Make sure you stick to it and never fall for the money making through gambling trap again.
850  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling scenario that keeps repeating on you on: July 07, 2023, 04:05:06 PM
I can relate to what you are saying; none of the strategies or scenarios work out in the end. The house is always smarter than you can imagine. On various occasions, I have tried multiple strategies, like taking a half-minute break after every minute. Initially, it seemed profitable, but after some time, I started losing my profits and ended up with nothing.

Some days may be profitable, but most days you ultimately end up with nothing. No matter what strategy you employ to defeat it, the house always wins.

Taking a break thing does work. I have tried it on multiple occasions and it worked quite a few times.
When we keep losing bets then it's better to stop after a few bets and come back the next day or after a few days.
Many times, you will win after the break but if you still keep betting after losing consecutive bets then you will just lose more.
851  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Accepting Bitcoin on: July 06, 2023, 04:52:07 PM
Since I joined this forum I have always wanted to invest in Bitcoin however Bitcoin investments in my country is not easy because of our currency value and the government is not in much support am currently working on convincing my mom to accepting Bitcoin in her tailoring shop i Also intend on hodling those Bitcoins

I would appreciate any advice on this my move



What do you mean when you say its not easy to buy bitcoin because of currency value ?
It doesn't matter what is the currency value unless you are from Venezuela.
If there are people interested to buy/sell bitcoins then you can surely buy some BTC for yourself.

As far as accepting bitcoin for your mom's tailoring shop then make sure you don't get in trouble because bitcoin is not a legal tender yet in most places.
So you can't accept it as a payment method officially and I won't recommend doing things illegally.
852  Local / India / Re: How many have Ethereum on their prorfolio? on: July 06, 2023, 04:42:39 PM
ETH makes about 20% of my crypto portfolio. Majority of them are earned during the initial golden days of ICOs. I had joined a lot of bounty campaigns that time and made a good amount of ETH. But unfortunately I have sold a lot of them. But I am not actually investing in ETH to be honest. All of my ETH holding comes from bounty.

I rarely invest in crypto either; it's all just comes from side earning. I also earned a lot of ether from bounties but didn't actually convert those alts into eth/btc to secure profits, eventually they all bit the dust (or some stupid decisions like selling aave early, back then it was called ethlend), hence losing most of eth.

Quote
I personally believe that ETH is the second most desirable cryptocurrency in the market.

I personally like it over btc even as long as it's gas prices are decent enough  Tongue

Even I had got ETHLEND out of nowhere. I just opened my wallet one day and found there were these coins. I just ignored it thinking its one of those shitcoins.
After few years I noticed its dollar value had increased significantly and by that time it had converted to AAVE. So I just sold all of them and got around $300.
Now that's a decent amount getting for free.  Grin
853  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Discussion - Being an Active Poster in the Gambling Board on: July 06, 2023, 04:35:15 PM
Our history of posts indicates that many of us are active contributors to the gambling board. We engage in discussions about various aspects of gambling, including sports betting, different casino games, and even stories, whether real or fictional. The topic of gambling addiction has been extensively covered, to the point where one could compile a short book on the subject just from our discussions. We have also shared our opinions and insights on gambling strategies. Considering all of this, I would like to ask:

  • Has being an active participant in the gambling section helped you develop more effective strategies for winning bets?
  • Has it aided you in overcoming gambling addiction (if you were addicted) or developing healthier gambling habits?
  • Have you noticed an overall improvement in your gambling experiences?

Let's delve into this topic because beyond simply increasing post counts, there must be genuine benefits to actively participating in these discussions.

Staying active on gambling board has indeed given me benefits. It has shown me that the lifestyle I have is the best when it comes to gambling.
It has made me help others by giving them insights and opinions on what should be done in a given situation.
Posting in the freebitco.in thread has made me utilize their rewards and active bonuses.
It has been a positive experience overall.
854  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The fight between Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk. Who you betting on? on: July 06, 2023, 04:26:57 PM
So even though I know nothing is going to happen, I'm just curious to hear what the actual reason was behind all this if that ever happens, I doubt if they will reveal the reason behind this to the public but I'm sure there is something which we can't see and they are doing it only for that.

They won't fight that is for sure! META the Instagram parent company is copying Twitter. They have recently launched a feature know as Threads few hours back and all of this is just a marketing gimmick to promote this new feature. If you want to how it all started then you need to read the OP. It is all written in their as usual everything associated with technology billionaires is either promoting their projects on their platform or manipulating the markets. We did saw how Elon Musk deliberately manipulated Bitcoin price and a meme coin price using Twitter and later bought it when he relaized the power of social media.

Obviously they won't fight because none of them are professional fighters and neither of them have any grudge to beat the other physically.
Although it would have been hilarious if they would have actually fought against each other but this one just looks like an IT war or something.
They might be competing each other in some kind of implementation or may be taking the top on the billionaires list.
855  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why do 90% of Bettors Lose in Sports Betting in the Long-term? on: July 06, 2023, 04:22:44 PM
I don't think such a long post was required because the whole motive of the post was behind 3 strategies of betting.
Value betting, Arbitrage betting and bonus. It's true that just guessing won't get us decent profits in the long run.
Value betting is the way to go but one should have a deeper understanding of the match/event he is placing the bet on.
Even then I would say there will be bets we lose because we require a combination of luck and skill to win.
856  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Virtual bug? on: July 05, 2023, 05:05:40 PM
I work for a casino house a couple of years ago - I could make a serial reference since it's been said in most of my post here.
Alright,?? Cashiers were assigned to manage the activities and book on desired games for all validated customers, but i normally noticed something very displeasing - sometimes, I felt bad for any gambler that lost in that same way and It looked to me like a kinda "money heist" program.
Here is it; A gambler could bet on correct scores - mind you, this all happens only in Virtual games - let's say, 3-0 and, since the games are being displayed on screens for them to confirm Thier winnings, it could even happen that the game stops at the 82nd minute, maybe with a 2-0 score,but once it rules out and updates the scores on the score sheets,.what we all see is 2-5...
Now the question is, how can 5 goals from the away teams be scored in barely a time to blink?? Could that have supposed to mean something different? Maybe a bug? Or is it some sort of misprogramming?

Sandra 🧑‍🦰

If you are talking about something that was done years ago then it would probably become harder to verify what had happened.
On a side not, many casino sites are created just to gain profits from their users. So we never know if it was an actual bug or they had implemented it in that way purposely.
In any condition, the casino site will just say it as a technical glitch and redirect the user to their terms and conditions where it would be written that they are not responsible for such glitches.
857  Economy / Gambling / Re: What other gambling sites offers free bitcoins like freebitco on: July 05, 2023, 04:56:18 PM
I came across an ad on Google concerning a faucet that talks about earning free bitcoin every hour when you click on a free spin wheel, at first I had doubts concerning it but then i was forced to make research about it then I discovered it was legit, I clicked on the link from the ad and registered on freebitco and  I was given 0.0000007 btc when I spinned a wheel, then at the home page of the site they offered me a chance to wager and multiply my reward whereby I  had to gamble  my earnings by predicting against other users on specific games to double my rewards of which I won, what amazes me about this site is the cool referral reward that it offers and was also offered 1 free lottery ticket and 1 reward points for every free btc roll my referrals play, I've had a lovely experience on freebitco so far and I'll love to know if there are other faucets or gambling sites that offers free BTC.

Note: that this post wasn't created with regards to making an income from the above stated faucet, my aim of joining the faucet wasn't to earn a living through btc rewards because I'm fully aware they offer few bits of satoshi's but rather for fun and to while away time during my leisure, so let's be guided.

I think you are new in crypto community. Freebitco.in is a very hold faucet/gambling site. It is one of the best faucet sites out there which has been operating since a very long time.
They are offering various things like reward points, lottery tickets, golden tickets, WoF spins etc...
Holding FUN tokens gives us additional WoF spins which gives us decent rewards.

As a crypto investor that desire to make huge profit through Cryptocurrency, there is 100% need to know what exit plan is and how to effect it appropriately. I know most of us are not too experience in the Crypto line and it is best to learn from those with this experiencial knowledge.

To all experienced Bitcoin investors, kindly share your experience with us, let's learn and become expose to the reality and strategy before the next bull run. This is another means to help young investors like us.
What are your exit plan and what exit plan have you used that work well for you.

It's good to know that you are concerned about your exit plan because it is one of the biggest mistakes I have done in my crypto journey.
One should definitely have an exit strategy and keep selling to buy back later and increase the portfolio size.
I didn't had an exit plan in my mind and this made me lose 2 big opportunities to make a great profit.
I have seen 2 bull cycles yet I didn't sell anything but this time I do have a plan and will make sure to take profits consistantly.
