541  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Mempool Observer Topic on: January 05, 2024, 11:48:37 AM
I wanted to discuss a thing that I noticed for a long time but didn't ask.
Sometimes I notice that some people replace their transactions with fees like 1000 sat/vB even though the recommended fee was around 100 sat/vB. Their previous fee was already enough to include their transaction on a block but it was waiting to be included in a block. But the person keep bumping it from 500 to 600 sat/vB and then 600 to 1000 sat/vB. Should I call them dumb people?
For example, look at the image below  Cheesy


Dumb people, I don't think so...
Considering the mechanism of Bitcoin transactions is based on next block confirmation is given to the highest bidder,  it's actually a smart way to ensure high fees are maintained...if anything this whole Ordinals spamming the network could be a smoke screen in my opinion.. What if miners were involved in artificially pumping of transaction fees to make some money while the business is lucrative Tongue I know  this could be an unpopular opinion but mining isn't cheap for starters and this is one possibility to pay themselves while they can !!

Besides if this was something like beginners mistakes, why doesn't this happen with other blockchains which have far cheap tx fees ??

Sorry about the title. While reading some posts, I noticed that some campaign participants seem to be posting essays. Have you noticed the same, or is it just me? If you also notice this, do you think it's healthy for the forum?
This long essay writing could have come in as a result of forum requesting for quality posts and other supporting services such as SMAS BLACKLIST that existed a few years ago and to avoid being listed there... users went for essays to stay off their radar  Roll Eyes

But all in all, this misconception of long essays is equal to a quality post is still debatable as a simple word or two to a question can stand as quality afaik....but I guess some users want to stand out and grind for merit (most obvious reason)

Other reason for essays is because its easy for a manager to pick you if you are into Signature Campaigns and just makes it easy to sieve out from the one two liners... provided grammar, sentence construction is above average and their is actual sharing of knowledge/information in those essays.
543  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How diverse is your crypto portfolio? on: January 05, 2024, 07:24:36 AM
Back in the day when ICOs were a hot topic and when I was so much into bounty hunting , my portfolio had an average of 100 tokens of which some have become shitcoins or died completely and I have moved on to avoid high expectations from them..though will check on these every 5years incase they resurrect lol...

But with my new portfolio, have chosen to lower my risk to avoid holding shitcoins and losing money by going with a small portfolio of not more than 20 coins from a pool of thousands of coins on the market...
544  Economy / Gambling / Re: Finding a Bug on: January 04, 2024, 06:50:42 PM
How does someone go about reporting a bug to a casino a still hold casino accountable to pay a bounty?

Most casinos would pay a bug bounty if the bug is critical, you should contact the support on the site and ask for the right way to report the bug, maybe the site has an special mail for that.
Easier said than done!

If am not mistaken there was a case here on the forum were one of the users did find a bug on one of the platforms and reported it and they claimed to have already known about and never paid this guy which makes this approach kind of a win-lose scenario as they could easily choose not to pay, and use your valuable bug report without you knowing...

And remember, if you exploit the bug your account will be closed and you will not get a bounty, that's why is important to report it as fast as you find it.
Talk without action yeilds no results!

Why not do it the white hacker way, exploit this bug into a test account and make so much money and then report it  and show them to what extent this can be used and then they can take this report seriously and possibly payup the bounty prize too...this way it's a win-win, they pay up and keep funds on test account or not pay and allow you accesss to the test account with bugged fund's  Tongue

Im looking for traders who will trade with my capital and instructions.
I would be interested if a free slot is still available,and hope the broker you use still has access to metaquotes services with their recent cutting off of certain brokers to access mt4/mt5...

You will be using my funds and trade according with my method.
Considering you have a method for this, why not get someone code an EA trade your style and never miss your trading set ups Huh

Anyway still interested and eager to look into this...

Anyone interested ? And you will be paying my share every week to me or 2 weekly how i want.
You need to have some experince Im not gona teach you basics so i hope to find some good partners.

Thank you !

Out of curiosity how do you intend to protect yourself from being used by a novice in trading that wants to hustle you to be paid, and secondly how do we know user gets paid too Huh
546  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What thread can earn newcomers merit on: January 04, 2024, 03:35:40 PM
We all know the beginning stage is not easy as a newcomer needs to be patient. Atleast he or she should be getting no matter how little some reward for their resources in terms of time and materials.
I joined the forum and all I told some people around me about it, the next question is," how much have u earned", I was absolutely discourage as I remained mute till date.
For a question that is based on the topic of merit , this actually sounds  like how much $$$ have you earned in terms of money 💲 and not merit itself!!

Btw, If the topic was really about merit nobody would laugh about it but if you tell people the forum is some sort of cashcow that will provide you with free money then I don't think am among those users that say that's the setup of the forum...any incentives that come from BCT are all secondary otherwise the primary goal should be to discuss and share knowledge about cryptocurrencies!!!

And just incase this is about merit, let's just say perseverance does pay and with time you do get noticed and you will be rewarded with merit for positive contribution to the forum.

Hi, guys

sportscasino.io  requires no kyc, delivers instant payments. Amazing sportsbook and casino experience.

Please share your thoughts here.
Why does this name look like a well known brand of the forum....

The prefix definitely does look like it and top level domain (TLD) name is that of the said site..look here:

Sportscasino.io     Sportsbet.io

Coincidence..maybe..or maybe riding on the success of another service provider   Roll Eyes Anyway didn't bother checking but I guess as far as competition goes , I guess it's acceptable practice Tongue This reminds me of those counterfeit brands I see online for Adidas such as Adidos, Abibas etcetera
548  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: January 03, 2024, 11:38:32 PM
I have not sat down to watch a full La Liga match, but getting to watch Girona take on Athletico Madrid was a must watch and it didn't disappoint!!

From the second the whistle was blown Gironas intentions were made known to all and got rewarded with an early goal but Atletico's persistence equally rewarded them with some goals thanks to a sharp looking Morata...and honestly with how the game was full of fireworks, I couldn't seperate the two as I thought a draw would be the perfect result to show how much each team worked for the result but seems Girona had the last laugh, congrats boy's, well deserved!!

I'm currently playing SPACEXY to try to win the contest, LOL.. It's just so sad because I cash out early even though my target hasn't hit yet.

I'm just amazed that I could see a big multiplier like this because honestly, this is my first time to see it when I'm the one playing


Is that a 42x am seeing, keep up the good work...hope you win...good luck  Cool

Thanks for the freebet jeremypwr and Sportsbet.io, first bet was a winner and the last bet unfortunately lost, but will keep trying  Cool



Just have a quick question, I have these showing up on my rewards page as a casino incentive..

Do I need to wager a certain amount to benefit from them( as in unlocking a reward) or free spins and the alike can be accessed by pressing the enable button without me using my personal funds..??


551  Economy / Gambling / Re: Sherbet.com - $1,000 USD + 20 FS Welcome Package - 24/7 Support - Weekly Race 🤑 on: January 03, 2024, 05:49:02 AM

We have a challenge that will end in the next two days. Don't miss it  Wink
Sherbet.com 🍭Weekly Challenge | Round#2.2 | Prize Pool $250 in BTC
Round 1 prize has not been distributed yet and Round 2 is about to end. Please settle the Round 1 prize so that we can participate in Round 2. I don't understand why the distribution of prizes is consistently delayed; it always takes a week to settle. Sorry for being in a hurry. I don't have any problems with your casino. I just really want to play and participate in round 2. 🤪
I think the approach of launching these new rounds should change going forward, a new round should only open after previous rounds have been settled to avoid any confusion and also preserve their reputation of which they have done a good job to build their name around the forum...



Well I have a different experience. My first withdrawal with this site was instant and didn't require KYC. Also, it was a 50$ withdrawal.
When it comes to withdraws these guys are quite good and I commend them for that! And hope they stick to these standards 👏👏



Its been more than a week for the 1st round (over a year LOL) and I have not received the prize yet, so the 2nd round might need to wait longer unless they decide to send the prize for both 1st and 2nd round at the same time soon.
Rounds payment will be sent end of this week. Most probably between on next Sunday to Monday.
Payments come in next week great, hope round 1 and round 2 will be settled together to clear the backlog...
552  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you believe in gambling experts predictions? on: January 02, 2024, 06:21:35 PM
Experts gambling predictions can mean anything....
for example someone who spends more time trying to analyse games and find the best ones for that particular day is someone I can believe as tipping services do exist and are reall, but if the person claims to have fixed matches at the expense of we users paying for this service screams scam and such users shouldn't be entertained as the risk is with us and not the so called experts!!
553  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🦁 Fantasy Premier League Pool ⚽ Discussion Thread on: January 02, 2024, 03:45:16 PM
I almost thought I missed some crucial points when I saw the red icon beside Salah, thinking he won't play against Newcastle later today.
I hate what these guys do with marking players as not going to play, but go on to play full 90 minutes, it's ridiculous...makes me wonder who provides this information to them!!!

Otherwise glad I gambled on Sallah to play despite that first scare of missing a penalty and redeemed himself with 2 goals and an assist, couldn't be any happier but still trailing in the pool Tongue


Maybe it was just a bad week for defenders in general.
Was a fan of playing more defenders in my team, but realised we have fewer cleansheets going round this season, and would advocate for the 3-5-2 formation for better results.

My review on play store :


App works great and moving from the desktop app to mobile is seamless which Is a big+. Other features  available such as AI use is a bonus and the best part about it is that it's free for all, and available is a cryptos wallet which allows users to create virtual cards for your online purchases, all in all this a great app 🎄👍🥳





Hope this is the right place for review submissions...

Anyways,  Cryptocurrency has become very popular in African continent. It is the third fastest-adopting continent in terms of cryptocurrency. Can cryptocurrency help Ithioia and Africa  to get rid of poverty?
Unfortunately bitcoin is not some kind of magic money lying around that exists for everyone and waiting to be taken...to have Bitcoin needs money and if money isn't available to buy the BTC then the poverty won't miraculously go away...what these countries need are the basics first such as Education to improve literacy levels then the technolog can be leveraged to improve personal lives  and continent at large...



~snip~

Same thing happened to Sri Lanka a country once a very good place to live as well. most of these countries get loans to develop infrastructure not to produce goods. Production economy is a must if you wanna sustainable economy.
Agreed, the problem isn't about borrowing but where this money is being invested which has been done wrongly by many countries hence the defaults!!!

It's about time these loans came with terms and conditions for these countries to have access by channeling these monies towards something that will help generate revenue and not go towards consumption or non fixed assets that became a liability over time as they require maintenance etcetera...
557  Economy / Gambling / Re: Responsible gambling on: January 01, 2024, 03:18:36 PM
These responsible gambling pointers given in the OP kind of sound like ways to avoid gambling addiction..and don't get me wrong as this can apply to "responsible gambling"

Btw, things such as setting a budget and taking breaks are all ways of managing gambling habits that should prevent
one from turning into an addict, but I guess there is a thin line between the twoa after all Roll Eyes

Otherwise to add on this, risk management  which is setting a budget, not chasing your losses and not going into debt because of gambling should help one be a responsible gambler Cool

559  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Must you lose before you gain in Bitcoin investment? on: January 01, 2024, 08:51:32 AM
Questions like this has popped out in several occasions and arguments concerning Bitcoin investment. My friends will say you must lose before you gain or rather have more experience investing in Bitcoin. If its how it work, Bitcoin isn't for a low income earner as well as not gonna make you rich when you can't invest something tangible to it.
Must you lose before you gain ? Well my answer to this answers the question that follows, and this is kind of a Yes and No answer... beginners luck could happen and get away without losing but losing at first try means you have the experience and know how to handle the next trade in terms of patience and emotional control...

Must you have experience ? For the long game I believe this is something one needs to have gone through to avoid emotional breakdowns in the future....

On the other hand people are been made big and wealthy in same program. What does it in tell, cos am quite sure people had already known what's going to happen in the market in the nearest future to give them the strong mindset to invest porously. My biggest fear is losing my hard earn to something as volatile, vulnerable and uncertain as btc. What's the possibility you invest without losing. Is it guaranteed in this kinda market?
Honestly, like any other new industry that has turned out successful, all the early birds do catch the worm afaik ...and fyi those that invested first have been paid a 1000X their investments if they didn't sell early which teaches us that a bit of risk and patience pays off ...if you invest with fear I don't think you playing the long game, any small profits means jumping out of the markets  Tongue

We are in the festive season and at the moment markets aren't as active as we would want them which tells me price will be ranging and dancing sideways aka consolidation,with that been said my price prediction is in line with being bearish and this might continue for the next 2 weeks before momentum comes in to push price up. My prediction 👇👇👇
