1141  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Slot games are a waste of time and money (most of the time) on: November 26, 2023, 06:56:33 AM
Yeah, I personally feel that slot games are a complete waste of time and money most of the time, I got this bonus from btcgosu's partnership with BetFury which awarded me a 77 free spins.

Bonus is still available for anyone to claim on https://www.btcgosu.com/blog/news/unleash-the-black-friday-magic-get-77-free-spins-with-code-gosu77-at-betfury/

I played slot game with the free spin and ended up with a total win of $16, but also hammered with a wager requirement of about $750 before I did be able to withdraw.

I continued playing slot with the $16, and soon, I had up to $55 in total amount won, I was really happy and hopeful that before I did lose all $55, I would have won much to enable me complete the wager requirement and possibly walk out in profit.

But unfortunately, I ended up losing the entire $55 dollar while I still had about $582 dollar in wager requirement, I am not confident enough to deposit and continue chasing, so I'm giving up.

I've never been lucky with slot games, never, and I am not pleased about it to be honest.
What about you?

The truth is that gambling companies will always get the money the gamblers put it, even including all the free bonuses they add.

They simply make these applications very addictive and fun to play, so that gamblers keep coming back for more. That's what the casinos want of course, because the longer you stay, the more money you gamble, and the more certain it is that the casino will keep your money.
Yeah, I think that's their strategy to keep their clients to play more even if they consistently losing their money. The graphic, huge winning prizes and the way on how to play slots is their strategy to capture gambler's interest. I agree that this is a waste of money because there's no guarantee of winning in slot machine, maybe there's a winning but a little chance and a small amount only, you can also get a free spin which convince you to play again.

If you really wanted these old guys not to influence the young, you'd have to make them stop lying, drinking alcohol, smoking, beating their wives... You'd have to make them into flawless beings.
That said, if you think that talking about gambling is the cause young people gamble, you should stop talking about every single controversial topic. By analogy, talking with a teenager about sex can cause them to start their sex life earlier. Talking about drugs can make kids start using. Talking about suicide can make a kid commit it... and so on and so forth.
In other word, it should've talked in a private so that kids will not hear anything you say. So they don't have any idea about it. Many parents forget that today's generation is very curious, adaptive and adventurous wherein everything they hear and see has the potential to imitate them when they grow up, especially now that everything is searchable in the internet. If you want your kids not to do things that isn't for them, be a responsible parent and show them what is the right things to do in life.
1143  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you ever been a gambling addict? on: November 26, 2023, 05:24:45 AM
I see a lot of people here talking about gambling responsibly. Yes, that is something very true, but have you ever been a gambling addict?

To be honest in the past I have spent a lot of money gambling. What I mean here is that I spent all my savings on gambling. Maybe the nominal amount is not that big but it makes me feel like a gambling addict. I spent 5 months of my savings on gambling. Currently I am aware and am in the stage of improving my own financial condition. Have you ever felt like a gambling addict? and how much did you lose in gambling?

I have to admit that I went through periods when I thought about gambling all the time. But then I asked myself a question. How long can I live like this? Then I did some financial planning to take control of my finances and I got back to normal. Today I have a set amount of money that I spend on gambling. And I never exceed that amount. And most importantly, I see gambling only as a means of entertainment. And I don't see it as a model of passive income or a model of regular income or a key to getting rich. And I realized that when my life became normal, I became a happier person.
It's pretty good to hear how you recover at early stage of becoming addicted to gambling. Having a self assessment and realizations, it will definitely help you to think and to analyze what should you do in order to completely stop or setting limits to minimize gambling activity. Though it's hard at first but once you used to it, you can gambling freely without thinking of the money that you've spent because you already know what is the right thing to become a responsible gambler.
1144  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What I've learned so far as a gambler on: November 26, 2023, 04:58:28 AM
If you walk into a casino with $200 and you start playing with that $200 and you win $200, get the hell out, you simply just doubled your money, take your goddamn leave, what do you think you wanna do? Win a million dollars? You will go home empty handed.

The next thing that rings in your ear is you can still win another or more, that's the devil whipsering, the art of gambling is knowing when to stop.

The only game where you have some power is in Poker, not the online one, this is the best game in casinos, as making profits off of bad players is possible.

As for Other games, You are at the mercy of the house.

No one actually visits the casino to have fun, you gotta trick the mind, I like to think of it has a fun night out and I am going to spend a few hundred dollars and have a good time and if I win it's a bonus, like I've said, you gotta trick the mind.

Always remember this, you are there to win a game where its statistically impossible to win at, it's not impossible to not understand this about gambling, a wise man once said, "if you want to make money with gambling, own a casino".
it's funny how before you even start the gamble, you tell yourself the ones you get even $100 addition to what you came with, you will stop at that point immediately, but the question is, do you stop at this point? No matter how disciplined you think you are, as long as you are still winning, something must urge you to still continue playing tst you will still win more if you don't stop at that point. This is what lead most persons to loosing all there or if it they've made and even lose our on the amount they came with. Knowing when to stop and actually stopping at that point is one key thing that goes to show that you're a responsible gambler.
That's kinda true! Some gambler enters the gambling world with a word out of their mouth like "I'll try and once I win, I will stop it" but unfortunately, that winning push them to continuously doing it. That 1 win motivates them to try more because they believe that there's a high chance to win again with a higher amount because they experiencing winnings at their first try, they are not aware on what we call beginners luck. Sometimes, even we say something to ourselves at first, but once we try and see the outcome, our perspective will change.
1145  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What according to you should be the age to retire from gambling ? on: November 26, 2023, 04:14:02 AM
Gambling is meant to be played for fun, right? That's the overall reason why most people gamble, and it has some other benefits too, like relieving stress and helping kill bored moments. When ever one sees himself or herself grow to the age where they no longer have fun with only things, what's the point of continuing to engage in such things?

When we talk about gambling being fun, aren't there many other activities that are more fun than gambling? Such as sports, traveling or other things, which do not carry too high a risk.
And when we talk about gambling being about profit, aren't there many other activities that are more profitable, such as trading, doing business or investing? because gambling is not profitable at all.

So in my opinion, the reason behind most people playing gambling is not about pleasure, but rather that they want to gain profits instantly, without having to work or make any effort.

However, there is nothing wrong with someone also considering that gambling is part of their enjoyment, but when someone already thinks so, then for that person to find other pleasures apart from gambling, this will be something difficult.
Gambling should be for fun only but since it generates money once we win, the eagerness to play will become addicted because it gives you a satisfaction once you get your winning prize, right? you can suggest other activities that's profitable but the question is, Does a person entertain once they do investment and trading? not all of them has an idea on that and maybe gambling is their forte that's why they keep doing it over and over again.  People has their different taste when it comes to hobbies and types of their enjoyment but this gambling activity is the most risky at all.
1146  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Dangerous chasing losses on: November 26, 2023, 04:00:41 AM
And the easiest way to avoid this mindset is to avoid betting too much money from the beginning, this way if things do not go your way and you start to lose, the losses you will suffer will be small and there will be no need for you to chase your losses, as you know very well that you will have the funds to pay for all the things you need in order to keep your home running as it should, however something so simple is beyond most people and they only realize this once they have suffered massive losses.

Or rather, have/carry a set amount that is to be spent in the casino before leaving your home. With a little discipline, you’ll pack up and head home when you’ve burnt through the set amount of money designated for gambling. That could help a little to resist the urge to continue playing with hopes of winning all the money lost earlier.
Perhaps it’s only when a huge portion of your total money is completely exhausted, that’s when realization sets in about how much has been spent.
That's better. A budget. Also, don't bring anything that can be pawned. Car, gold, silver, or anything that is sold for money. Bring only the cash and maybe the ugliest car in your garage. Cheesy
Because those things will give you the idea to chase the losses by using them as collateral to get a loan from loan sharks that are hiding in the shadows if it's in a physical casino. They will always be there.
Like what they always say, only gamble what you can afford to lose and I think the budget that we will bring is the only money that we should lose then we could go back home without much regret about it. At least that way we could still sleep sound and then just go back another day with the same plan.
It's not like the casino is going away, they will always be there just waiting for their customers and there will always be another where maybe we will get lucky and claim back all that was lost.
I hope everyone will read your statement, I think that's the best way so a gambler will not have any idea to chase their losses, but living in this modern society where everything is very accessible via online, It's hard for them to follow this because just like what you've said, Do a budget or bring a budgeted money for gambling only but gamblers always have their phones and mobile banking app is accessible once they lose all their handed money. Also we know for ourselves that we can't stop someone especially if they are really determined to play again to get back the money they lost.
1147  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Has anyone been able to make steady income with gambling ? on: November 26, 2023, 03:42:14 AM
Not only is it not necessary, but indeed what must be done is that it is not mandatory for gambling to be the main source of income in life, if like that, it will lose a lot of money that will be experienced not with the benefits that will be obtained, by considering it as entertainment and pleasure it will minimize the loss of money they have. The victory that is not easy to get can even be said to be almost impossible to get it to be the main race of those who gamble, indeed everyone wants a big win, but not everyone will get it easily.  To get a steady and clear income they should work for real not by gambling, which will only drain all the money they have. They should not chase the victory let alone chase the losses that have occurred, because it will only make it difficult for themselves and it is in fact like that.

With the winnings that can be considered a bonus from this paid game, that way they don't have to chase or expect the winnings they will get,  if they intend to seek pleasure and entertainment it will not be a problem but if they intend to double the money that is wrong, so the fault is with themselves not with the casino.
Of course, he will find it difficult to win and will even lose a lot and he cannot estimate how much money he will end up spending to make money. But actually, he couldn't make any money at all because his huge losses couldn't be recovered by continuing to gamble. After all, this was gambling. Everyone wants a big win but not everyone can get it easily. If you don't want to experience this, you should limit your gambling activities and always control yourself so that you don't gamble excessively. Most people will not be able to earn a steady income from gambling because gambling is not a job that can earn you money every day, week, or even month. Your skill and luck determine your winnings. Meanwhile, if you work in a company or somewhere else, you can make more money and that is the job you should look for.

Even if they win, they will still chase other wins because, according to them, if they can win, they might be able to win again by gambling. But it won't be as they imagined because, in the next round, they can lose all their money. After all, their luck has run out.

Yes, that's true, because the estimated winning percentage is smaller than the losing percentage. Even though there will be a big win to be had, it won't be easy to get and not everyone can get that win, only people who have strong luck can get that big win. And it's also important to remember that slot machines are random and there is no guarantee that someone will always win. There are also other factors such as machine volatility or variability that can affect how often they win or win prizes. Because gambling is paid, if those who are not ready to lose their money can look for free demo-based slot sites, the sensation will be different from those of us who use real money to gamble.

The luck they have will not always accompany them to always win, nor do they have to use gambling as their main source of income, as you said, to get a steady income they have to work in real companies, they can also work in a gambling company if they can join it, after all there's no harm in it. It's just unethical to make gambling your main income, because the percentage of losses will be greater than the percentage of wins.
Very well said, mate! estimated winning is much smaller compare to losing that's why gambler tends to gamble more because they are chasing their loses. some slots machine are truly random and there's no guarantee of winning unless there's a cheating incident wherein slots has been set up to winning only but I haven't heard any incident like that. I prefer to do gambling while having a stable job or business but I always suggest to others that gambling should not look as a main source because it has no potential to be treated as stable job. Gambling is just an entertainment not a job.

Parents have many hopes, dreams and dreams for every child. Similarly, my parents have many dreams and hopes for me. From my childhood, my parents raised me with a lot of pain and care and even taught me education.
Their dream was that I would grow up to do good and achieve their fame.
I have been working in a private company for about seven years after completing my education and have been saving my salary from the company and investing in Bitcoin.
I made a post a few days ago saying that I paid for my entire wedding with my Bitcoin money.
Today is one of the best days of my life and I have completed the first step of my parents dream with my bitcoin money. Which I want to share with you today. As the saying goes "When God gives, His hands are full". Today I am very happy to do this post today

Helping family businesses with Bitcoin:

My father has a business which is weaving industry. This business is our ancestral business.
The main function of our business is to manufacture sarees which are human body wear.
Our main work in this business requires electric powered looms to make sarees. The price of an electric powered loom machine (about one lakh fifty thousand rupees, this is our own country's rupees). But if we take the price as bitcoin or take the price as dollars then it will cost around $1300 dollars.
I bought an electric powered loom machine for my father's business facility with my own invested Bitcoin money.
It cost me about $1300 dollars
   


Fulfill my dreams with Bitcoin:

My childhood dream was to buy a motorcycle when I grow up. It is the dream of most boys these days to have their own bike.
I bought my dream motorcycle with my bitcoin money.
My bike model is Suzuki GSX-R Dual ABS. The price of which is about five thousand dollars in our country. As I don't have that much dollars, I bought a second hand motorcycle which costs around $2050

   

[I lost all the bitcoins I had invested, it's sad. But I am very happy and glad to be able to fulfill my father's business and my own dreams]

Finally, I would like to invest more in Bitcoin in the future, saying that the single best coin to invest in is Bitcoin. Many people's lives have already changed by investing in bitcoins, as mine has. I have already invested in almost all coins but the safest and most successful investment is my Bitcoin investment
I already read you previous post and honestly I'm genuinely happy because someone fullfill their dreams by the help of bitcoin. Again, Congratulations on your wedding and now you're already fullfill one of your parents dream too. Not everyone here has the capability to do what you've accomplished because it's truly hard to decide what needs to be prioritized especially if your money is not enough to sustain and to cover all the things that you want to accomplish. Don't regret and be proud of yourself, the important thing is that it went to things that you know will also help you and your family.

Ang pagkaka alam ko, applicable lang sa v2 yung disabled ang SLP rewards sa classic. Medyo umiingay nanaman ang axie sa social media dahil sa mga updates nila about Axie, kahit ako mismo napacheck sa accounts ko pero hindi ako umaasa na tataas o magkakaroon pa ng value ang SLP, sa dami ng mga taong may hawak nito tapos kakaunti nalang ang breeders and investors, baka konting paggalaw lang sa market ay mag sell na ang lahat bigla big
May konting mga updates pero parang pure hype lang ulit. Sa ngayon, may pag burn ng axie ang magaganap. Parang ganun ulit ang gagawin nila para dumami ang burning ulit at demand para sa axie pero ang mangyayari, kung dati may axs saka slp, ngayon axie naman.
Kaya yan yung magiging paraan para sa kanila para tumaas ulit yung demand. Makikita natin kung magiging effective ba yung ganyang strategy nila kasi kung hindi, parang wala naman masyadong interest at yung pagiging active ulit sa mga event nila Jihoz, parang part na yan ng strategy nila.
Diba may ganitong update na silang ginawa noon? yung ilalagay mo yung axie mo ng walang reward para ma-burn yung axie. Meron pa nga board stats yan noon kung sino may pinakamaraming axie ang na-burn pero wala naman rewards, kumbaga tulong lang para mabawasan yung population ng axie na umiikot sa market.

Walang naging hype ang bago nilang update siguro dahil na din sa wala padin slp reward sa v2, akala siguro ng tao na dahil bubuhayin ang v2 magkakaroon na ulit ng slp rewards. Kaso ang nangyare AXP ang binigay, exp lang ng Axie na makukuha mo kung mananalo ka ng sunod sunod.
Oo meron pero umalis nadin ang mga players after nilang itry, accessible lang sya sa computer e hindi naman lahat may mga computer na gamit. Ginawa lang nila yun para maubos yung mga axie at mapilitan ang mga managers na mag invest sa panibagong axie team, paulit ulit lang. Tinry kong laruin yung Classic, wala padin namang SLP na makukuha, AXP reward lang then sa cursed arena, 12 consecutive wins= 1 AXS.
1150  Local / Pilipinas / Re: Ano ang gagawin mo sa sitwasyon na ito? on: November 25, 2023, 11:40:22 AM
I agree, hindi nila agad malalaman ang IP address ng isang legit na hacker, for sure sobrang daming layers nyan na kailangan idecrypt bago makita at isa pa malaking exchange to at malaking pera yung nakuha nya meaning edukado itong taong to pagdating sa hacking at online activity. Yung sa $10 million white hat reward naman, hindi sya convincing para sakin if I were the hacker, maari kasing bait lang ito para mas mapagaralan nila or bigyan yung sarili nila ng time para malaman yung information ko. If I were the hacker, I'll start moving na kung san mang lupalop ng mundo, ang magiging problem na lang is hindi lahat ng nakuhang pera ay magiging pisikal na pera sa kanya, worth nothing kumpara sa kalayaan na kapalit nito.

Anong bait lang, ang sabihin mo talaga bait sa hacker yan, baka iniisip nila na ganun lang kasimple na maconvice yung hacker sa ganun strategy na ginagawa nila. Pero tulad ng sinabi mo matalino nga talagang yang hacker na yan.

Baka nga naliliitan pa yan sa offer sa kanya, posibleng ganun pa yung mangyari diba? saka tama ka rin malaking exchange parin yang poloniex kaya malamang hindi nya gagawin na manghack kung alam nyang mahuhuli siya ng mga awtoridad sa aking palagay at opinyon lang naman.

Maaaring ganun na nga, gumagawa nalang sila ng mga posibleng paraan at nagbabakasakaling mabawi ang mga perang nanakaw. Kaysa naman mapahaba pa ang usapan at lalo na ang imbestigasyon na maaaring mauwi sa wala kaya nagbigay nalang sila ng ganitong offer o bait para matapos na agad.

Mataas ang chance na hindi pansinin ang offer. Mukha din namang hindi basta-basta ang hacker at alam niya ang ginagawa niya dahil hindi naman ganun kadali ang manghack ng exchange. May mga plano yan na paniguradong  hindi siya madaling mahuhuli.

good luck sa naisip nilang paraan, paniguradong hindi na pagtutunan ng pansin yan ng hacker, baka at this point, nakapagtago na ang mga ito at lumipad na sa ibang bansa lalo na malaking pera ang hawak nila, napakadaling umalis at magsimula ng bagong Buhay sa ibang bansa. Siguro sa mga nangyaring hacking incident, mas Mabuti na pagtuunan ng pansin at pondohan ang paghihire ng mga best IT sa bansa to Prevent cyberattacks from happening again in the future.

Parang malaking kalokohan naman yan na susuko ung hacker para dun sa offer, malamang nakapagtago na yan at kung meron man makuhang identity patungkol sa kanya malamang alam din ng hacker yan before nya or nila ginawa ung panghahack baka nakapag palit na ng pangalan yan or nakapagpalit na ng mukha mga bagay na pwedeng magawa pag marami ka ng pera db?

Kaya tama ka kabayan, mabuting gamitin na lang yung offer na yan sa pagpapalakas ng security layers ng negosyo nya at ituloy na lang din ung kaso kung talagang meron na silang lead para mahuli yung nasa likod ng panghahack.



Kaya nga kabayan, siguro nahalata din ng hacker na binabluff lang siya at malamang pinagtatawanan nya lang din ito sa aking palagay lang din naman. Kung yung mga hacker sa panahon ito ay mas inaupgrade nila ang kanilang mga sarili sa paghack ng isang platform na gusto nilang pasukin ay dapat lang din naman na pag-ibayuhin din natin na iupgrade ang mga ganitong klase ng mga isyu sa hacking isyu.

Iupgrade ang dapat iupgrade para kung anuman ang gawin ng mga hacker ay madali silang masusupil, na kung saan ay hindi na kailangan pang idaan sa bluffing kundi kung matrace na agad kung nasaan ito ay hulihin na agad at saka na ibalita kapag nahuli na yung hacker.

Actually, isa sa mga napansin ko ngayon, karamihan sa mga company dito sa bansa natin, hindi ganoon kaayos yung system securities and teams nila dahil kung talagang nasecured ng maayos ang lahat ng dapat ingatan, hindi yan mapapasok ng mga hackers kahit gaano pa sila kagagaling. naisip ko lang, since karamihan sa mga hackers ay talagang matatalino at sure naman ako na mga nakapag aral ang iilan doon, bakit hindi nalang sila Ihire at offeran ng malaking basic salary? Usually ang offer sa mga IT dito sa bansa, umaabot nadin naman ng 6 digits, pero sa kabilang banda baka hindi din pumayag ang mga hacker sa ganong offer kasi mas malaki nga naman ang makukuha nila sa paggawa ng mga illegal na bagay kaysa sa pag tatrabaho.
1151  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Stop the self entitlement claims on others gamblers winnings. on: November 25, 2023, 11:33:45 AM
I believe the sense of entitlement is not a common focal point across humans, rather I see it as a psychological state where one feels too important and too useful to another and therefore believes that he is entitled to a thing or two from that person either becuase the person is consistent with giving  or because there is a condition that prompts him to get from the giver.

A clear example of entitled people can be said to be parents but even at that, most parents don't want to be seen as that. Good a thing the government takes care of the old people cos this generation don't give a hoot about people who are feeling entitled


What will be the possible reason of being self entitled person? seems like that person used to help the winner before or maybe he really just wants to show the winner that the money he got came from the pockets of his gambling companions. The latter part sound funny and immature way of thinking though, maybe he can think of things like that because he can't accept in himself that he is not the winner.
1152  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Would You Crowdfund for a Gambler Who Has Gambled Irresponsibly? on: November 25, 2023, 10:28:14 AM
There's usually a thin line before answering this kind of question, as it varies depending on the occasion and the reason for the said crowdfunding. On the one hand, I'd say that it's irresponsible to become bankrupt due to gambling; you're addicted and need professional help. This doesn't apply only to gambling but to anything that occurs in excess, such as compulsive shopping and so on. Personally, I'd rather not help someone who brought this on themselves, but on the other hand, some other serious issues might be underlying that led to the state that he needs to ask for crowdfunding. Thus, in my opinion, we shouldn't be too quick to judge, as there might be some serious conditions, such as medical, and the dire need for money led them to such compulsive behavior. Would it be justified? Certainly not, but we can't judge until we're in their shoes.
If there's any serious medical condition that's why a gambler need to ask crowdfunding, it is better to explain and elaborate it first or seek medical advice from the experts. In that way, maybe people will help him, But if the reason is about being an irresponsible gambler,  don't expect them to help you. I get it
that it depends on the occasion and reason, If a person loses money in gambling in multiple times to the point that their physical and mental health is at stake, meaning there's really  something wrong, he needs to know in himself that something is wrong and he needs to stop whatever is the reason why he is experiencing this.

I have observed that the rich, I mean those who are financially comfortable, win more in gambling than the poor. By poor, I mean those who do not have enough to meet all their needs. I don't know the reason for this. Could it be that the rich understand financial management more? Or could it be that the rich are less desperate to win which make them make better gambling decision? I really want to know the reason for this pattern I have observed.
It's  because rich people has a huge bankroll wherein they can placed huge bet whenever they want. Huge bet = Huge winning amount.
Rich people has a budgeted money for their gambling activities since they are doing it for entertainment purposes only, while poor gambler only using their personal money for gambling because they are hoping to double the value even if they are not sure if winning luck is in their side or not. sometimes, they are using the only money left in their pockets which is not appropriate action when it comes to gambling because it can lead you being in debt once you lose all your money.
1154  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is not a steady income haven on: November 25, 2023, 10:00:06 AM
It is foolish to consider gambling as a source of stable income. Even if we win a lot of money today, it is not sure that we will continue to win tomorrow. We can even lose and lose all our initial capital. No one dares to confidently say that gambling gives them a stable source of income. I have seen so many people lose money when they see gambling as a way to get rich and even become addicted.
If someone sees gambling as a job to make money, then they should just see gambling as just a side job. They can earn a decent amount of money here. If they are unlucky, they will avoid unwanted risks.
As a firm believer that gambling should not be treated as a source of income, I agree with your statements. I don't consider gambling as a main source of income or others define it as their stable source of income which is totally not, we are aware that when it come to gambling, chances are 50-50 and sometimes 100% of your money loses in it. I'm still wondering how come a person rely on gambling as their main source? how and where do they get money for gambling if they don't have a job?

There are some old people in my family which are paying cricket fantasy games. They usually talk about the games and their performance is matches almost daily. It is obvious that if any younger guy in family will listen about this, he will also be eager to know more about this. How can I stop the younger generation in my family being carried away by this and focus on other important things like studies only ?
It depends to a child if they want to be like one of their seniors, I believe that being involved in a gambling or gambling addiction is not hereditary but it can be pass to the younger generation because of the exposure of a child to that kind of activity which is really not suitable for their age. Kids are curious in everything, they have a habit that what they are used to seeing, they will do until they grow up.

Lmao. It's pretty evident that op doesn't really care much about his app since he just posted once and was last active on 14th November, but so many posters are still replying and we all know why.

Spamming issue keeps getting worse with time in certain boards within this forum.
It's kinda shady and suspicious to us, This post seems like a paid advertisement or their way to hacked someone who fall in this post. I have checked the app by searching it in playstore but I didn't give enough time to click the link because I don't know if this is kind of phishing scam since that's the trend nowadays.. If OP really wants the community to try this, kindly show us the proofs and evidences. He/she can defend comments by replying here in threas though.

Naka follow din ako kay Koo Koo at no doubt naman na may malawak na community yan sa NFT dahil isa siya sa mga nauna diyan at nag influence din. Pero tignan natin kung may impact pa rin sila sa paparating nabull run, tingin ko naman madaming magbabalik pero hindi na mababalik yung dating lakas ng Axie.
Marami ng bagong players at projects na lumalabas ngayon, kaya medyo nag-spread out na yung attention ng tao. Pero who knows, baka may bago silang strategy or features na makakapag-attract ulit ng maraming players. Exciting times ahead sa mundo ng Play-to-Earn games! Sana nga magkaroon ng bagong opportunities, lalo na sa mga active na players.
Parang wala naman silang bagong strategy kundi pare parehas lang din. Ang kinaibahan lang ngayon ay parang nagbalik lang dahil matagal naging passive ang axie, kahit nga yung origins o v3 nila parang hindi naman naging trending. Ang iniisip lang ng karamihan sa V3 dati ay magkakaroon ng hype at tataas ang presyo ng SLP pero hindi naman nangyari.

Siya nga pala, san mo nabasa yung information about sa SLP? For v2 classic lang ba yung disable o pati sa Origins?
For V2 lang ata yun, check mo sa discord nila kasi yung screenshot na nabasa ko galing sa discord. I-check mo nalang din whole details kasi hindi ko sigurado kung pati origins ganun pero dahil may deadline, baka sa v2 lang.

Ang pagkaka alam ko, applicable lang sa v2 yung disabled ang SLP rewards sa classic. Medyo umiingay nanaman ang axie sa social media dahil sa mga updates nila about Axie, kahit ako mismo napacheck sa accounts ko pero hindi ako umaasa na tataas o magkakaroon pa ng value ang SLP, sa dami ng mga taong may hawak nito tapos kakaunti nalang ang breeders and investors, baka konting paggalaw lang sa market ay mag sell na ang lahat bigla bigla.

Ano sa tingin nyo guys? Since anonymous yung identity natin dito sa forum sa tingin nyo meron kayang mga sikat na tv personalities ang nandito din?
Since alam naman natin na halos karamihan ngayon ay may background idea na sa crypto at dito sa forum nadin, siguro may iilang celebrities ang aware na nag eexist ito, hindi ko masasabing nandito din sila pero alam kong alam nila 'to. Mostly celebrities lalo na yung nasa peak ng career nila, ang mga investments nila ay pinapahandle nila sa mga pinagkakatiwalaan nilang tao. Siguro yung mga celebrities/influencers na nasa kanilang career break ay may posibilidad na mapadpad dito lalo na kung interesado sila sa pag iinvest pagdating sa crypto.

Sometimes that would happen but most of the time our dream will not came into reality especially if we expect a huge result because in our dream we earn a lot of money. But turns out it didn't came the same way and we lose our money. Its just they are just so lucky at that time they won and he just relate it into his dreams that's why many got curious to know if some physic or other superstitious belief on betting will actually work. But scientifically there's no basis on all of this since as said everything came as random that's why we are not sure on gambling. But nothing wrong if we believe on this since if they are comfortable with that then its truly fine nothing will bother them for doing what they think is right for them.
For me, it's not how you expect something, and it won't happen as you expected. Because it only means that you have something in your mind that is interesting, wish it to happen in your life, and expect it to happen right away. But then you get disappointed as it didn't happen the way you think of it.

All things that happen in our dreams are just a coincidence, some call it a "Deja vu", an illusion of memory and a strong sense of recollection of the time and place, where you have the feeling of seeing it before (which is mostly happening in your dream) an unexpected thing that we never think of.


I can say that psychic betting is more like manifesting some thing to happen but sometimes it will lead to disappointments. At this time, Most people tends to manifest because they do believe that once you believe in something and the body reacts to that belief,  they can achieve what they have desire. let's be aware that manifestation is a way of thinking which typically involves setting clear intentions, visualizing the desired outcome and emotions that align with the desired outcome.

Gambling is purely played based on luck. It's a luck game. If you were lucky you might win, if you don't you might loss. These is no backdoor or secret formulas or words that will ensure your winnings. So if anyone says to keep on trying and trying don't follow them. You are dooming your own life if you do this. Apart from luck, the most important thing in gambling is self control. To have to ability to know when to stop. To control your emotions, to not get drowned win them. Repulsive behavior is the root cause of all the problems.
Some people denies the fact that gambling isn't all about luck, they prove that it needs an analysis and requires strategy which is very often  to predict on statistical analysis. In fact, There are many ways to maximize your winnings in gambling so that you can't say that it is all about pure luck, just like budgeting your money, meaning do not gamble with money you cannot afford to lose, know how much money you can spend and are willing to donate if luck isn’t with you and also set a proper time management so that you can build and maintain your momentum in doing gambling.
