Wins and losses are common in gambling. Losing a bet creates a lot of human stress for many gamblers because there are many gamblers who bet such money that they cannot afford to lose. If you are going to gamble in a 50-50 situation and you know that losing will hurt you so bad such that the feeling can turn to become depression then don't a gamble!!! Gambling shouldn't be a life or death situation and it's okay to watch from the sidelines, but if you will have to borrow money just to gamble then these could actually be early signs of gambling addiction and should find ways of managing your time to avoid being hooked to gambling!!! Some other gamblers after losing betting money they become depressed. Most of the time I have gambled alone and some times gambled with friends. There are some positive and negative aspects of gambling in these two situations. I feel a bit relaxed there when I participate in the same bet with my friends. Because even if I lose there, I get consolation seing from others. At the same time there are some differences of opinion before betting which sometimes creates confusion.
Have any of you had any such feelings? Fortunately for me, me and my buddies have agreed not to support the same teams just to create an atmosphere of competition and fun, but if it comes to putting money on a team this is usually personal as its easy to influence other people's decision if you are on a winning run and we try to avoid this kind of decision making. Is there less human pressure if gambling is conducted in the same place with friends?
If everyone is saying X team will win then there is less pressure , but when there are divergent picks... this is were the confusion comes in as people don't know what to go for which is why sometimes solo picks are better to remove any doubt or confusion! |

* My question is, how safe is it to keep screenshots of Bitcoin/crypto transactions and useful information, on ones device?
Like your buddy, I personally do take screenshots of things I believe are important and would want to revisit at a later time which isn't a bad thing, and besides content could be deleted and you won't find what you looking for, or perphaps you could use this as evidence in case someone says a transaction never happened... If you ask me, it's actually a good habit as compared to relying on your biological memory which can forget if it wasn't interested in something. * How do I go about letting my friend know about such a habit of taking and keeping screenshots on his device that I have observed and warn him about it, without looking like I sense bad days coming?
If it's something sensitive such as a mnemonic or some private keys his keeping as screenshots here you could tell them that should you lose your device or should it remain unattended to someone else could have access to this information which could lead to him losing valuable items and to avoid this he better find other means to store such data. But if it's nothing too personal and private, I think there is nothing to worry about and nice looking out for your friend;) |

This United -Liverpool match is explosive, Garnacho just had a goal ruled for offside but good to see Uniteds intentions that they want to win this one, and hoping they get a double on them!!! I can only imagine how many want United to win today...Arsenal , Manchester City fans etc lol Let's go United¡!
Only a few minutes to go for the Manchester United - Liverpool game.  Liverpool are favoured a lot according to bookmakers (1.61) which isn't surprising. However I would still expect their odds to be a little higher than this because they couldn't beat the Red Devils yet this season. We can't be sure of anything about this game either. Totally agree, this price should have been 2 odds to show that this is a tough game for them but to be at 1.6 is undervalued if you ask me and United will win this one!! |

Do you guys think it's OK to advice other gamblers to quit gambling simply because of your own bad experience, does your bad experience mean that every other gambler out there will also have the same bad experience?
I will like some really useful discussions around this topic.
It's easy for him to be the ambassador of people stopping gambling after he lost his life savings and doesn't want other players to go through the same ordeal!! And not to be judgemental on this... how does one go from $10 bets to losing $60K..come on fella's what I see here is a player full of greed and isn't sure with what they want or how to gamble! You know what they say, winners know when to stop and by stop doesn't mean you are profitable, this also means you have had a losing session and you walkaway to play another day...let's know when to walk away, simple! Otherwise I would have loved to see a video of the player playing to see what went wrong...might learn something here. |

What if I can't be available when Bitcoin is dumping? What if I am away because in reality I am always busy, you can tell how epileptic my activeness on this forum have become.
Is there anyway to buy Bitcoin dips when I am not available? So this come to my mind straight away. The secret to this is knowing your technical analysis and employ a good risk management, and once you have this you can put in your pending orders that will fill once price pulls back (dips) to your price...just avoid buying at a premium. .
A bitcoin buy the dip bot, that can trigger a certain price when I am away, is this possible? Very much possible, by the way a simple limit order or stop pending order can help you just depends if you buying to hodl or its leveraged trading you are after. .
Don't tell me to use a centralized exchange, been not active in crypto space means that a centralized exchange can collapse before you come back, I want something in my control.
If you have a better option, don't hesitate to share.
Buy from a centralised exchange then move coins to a non-custodial wallet, problem solved. |

Hi community,
When we make a bet and put our money on the line, we may lose money, time, and even some daily tasks that we neglect, and the first goal remains to make a quick profit with the largest possible amount of money, but I do not know why some people consider bets to be more for fun and a way to spend time than to win money.
Let's put this debate to bed, time is money and if you are going to gamble without anything to show for in terms of a profit then it's simply a waste of time. And why would anybody in their right mind call losing money fun, comeon let's be honest with ourselves. So where's the fun when you lose your money?
No fun in this indeed, unless you are playing with someone else's money that you have no attachment in... |

1. At what age will you allow your child to start gambling? that is if you will even allow for that at all? First and foremost, gambling is reserved for person's at the age of 18 and if the child is of this age he or she must be considered as an adult! But for an 18year old to be gambling, as a parent you need to be worried because when did he get hooked and how are they funding their gaming account...if you can answer all this without your name fitting the equation then I wouldn't worry much but would advise the child on how to go about it responsibly and it's negative effects without sugar coating anything. 2. At what age do you see yourself quit gambling? that is also if some of us are going to ever do so? It's not about your age, things just happen AFAIK!!! 3. Ever since you have started gambling, have you ever achieve a satisfying level that makes you think it has good impact on you? Not everyday should be a losing day, we have times when we win big and bad days when we lose hard it's just a game of luck... 4. Would you have missed out on anything if you were not a gambler?
Life is not about living it with regrets, we are already here and can't go back in time... otherwise I think I found myself gambling because of my love for sports otherwise if I didn't like sport maybe I wouldn't have known about gambling  |

@AB de Royse777 Hi Royse! Do you know about the extra entries? How will you work on that extra entries (or how will extra entries work?)
I would propose these are entered with an extra character at the end of the BTC addy such as (2) or -2 to show this extra entry and allow Bitcoindata Science giveaway manager to be used for the distinct addresses  |

Over 95% of the US dollar is digital and all of the digital dollars are in the custody of a Bank. When you make a purchase or transfer your US dollars your transaction is tracked and approved by the bank and by extension, the US Government.
Can you consider a transaction that is monitored and approved sound? In the world we Iive in, I guess we can say so from the "government's point of view" and for money to go through the system can clear your name of any money laundering, tax invasion etc as there is a money trail should it pass through the bank system and you can point it's origin and the alike. But from a cryptonians point of view, this is not sound as privacy isn't respected with all prying eyes on your money and someone somewhere is keeping tabs on you...I guess this is why crypto is a success! I think for a money to be sound you must be able to transact privately with no third party in the transactions.
What do you think?
In a decentralized setup, privacy will be respected but unfortunately when it comes to fiat privacy is thrown out of the window as the system needs to account for all the dollars which is also impossible to do.. |

So I happened to watch a UFC related movie yesterday and the main character is a very strong one who never loses a fight but during a fight he decided to lose the fight, I found out that he did it intentionally because his uncle and his uncle's friend bet a lot on the biggest odd, which is the other fighter.
When you mentioned UFC related movie, what came to my mind was "RoadHouse" as I just watched it recently but unfortunately don't remember story line being this way...care to share the name of this movie ~~snip~~.
Now I started to think about the real life UFC, maybe this is even happening underground and we don't know? Jake and Mike Tyson's upcoming fight for example is gearing up, many believe that Mike will win, but maybe something like this will happen? All I will say is don't trust these exhibition matches because end result will always shock you!!! Btw had this match being a real punch for punch boxing 🥊 match Iron Mike would take it any day but parading the Legend this way against clowns like Jake should tell you it's for entertainment purposes and money raising venture!!! Many gamblers are placing bets on this fighter since its more reliable than you against the casino games, this is all about agility and skills, but the possibility of intent loss to make more money is also possible in this game, what's your take on this?
It's matches like this that are easy to fix, settle for a draw and all punters lose money with the inner circle benefiting. |

United should be able to get the win today, or at least they have to get the win looking at the standings if they want to have any chance at all, they need to win this match.
Honestly I was thinking in the same lines especially that they don't have other tournament commitments thought they would throw everything at this game, but seeing we just five minutes into the game and United have already conceded doesn't give me the confidence to say they can turn this game around.. But i will keep an open mind as such games come with surprises. I must admit a fact that Chelsea are really good in home games against big teams. I still remember that insane 4-4 draw against Manchester City here.  A really tough game is waiting for Manchester United as of now. I remember that game and if I recall Manchester city were actually out played and were lucky enough to force a draw otherwise Chelsea should have collected maximum points!!! |

Church is a religious place for the followers of the biblical Jesus Christ to worship and praise him
Of recent church is one of one the fastest growing business in this part of the world. Church business is so lucrative that every body wants to go into it and are opening churches
Infact the rate at which GOD is calling people into the ministry is what gave me concerned as I have been waiting for the same call but is not forth coming, before the advent of this present evegelical move people who where associated with the church where termed church rats but today that statement has changed as it is now the church rats that are giving food to the outside rats
Infact pastor's have become so rich that they now own private jets and millionaire, the way our economy is going opening a ministry is now a sure away of moving away from economic hardship
Guys let discuss what do you think about this, are these pastor's really being called or they are just looking for a way out of economic hardship
For starters the world is not exclusively based on Christianity so let's not make a big fuzz out of this as we have several other religions out there coexisting !! As of the increased number of churches coming up, let's just say people have cracked the code to say these places have ready help available to them and other benefits such as tax free incentives available to owners of the church..then there is a big gap of people desperate for a change of life through miracles which has attributed the rise of this number...and for some these are the best fronts for money laundering so reasons for the rise are plenty!!! |
