What's your take on this?

You play on a casino, and it's supposedly "provably fair", however, you we're able to find a backdoor and exploit their system. Are you going to tell the casino itself or you will continue to play as it's free money and then you exit just about in time before the casino know what you have done?

Or take for example this case: Looking Back at the Ultimate Bet Scandal.

What would I do if I saw a loophole? I might exploit it though that's just wishful thinking as I have no cyber expertise. However I believe online casino security is so good these days that it's unlikely someone with malicious intent could find a backdoor. Furthermore casinos now implement KYC systems making it relatively easy to prosecute those who commit crimes.

I have thought about this thoroughly, if have unlimited funds, I will not gamble. The reason is that I don't gamble for fun but to chase winning. My fun is always when I win something big, withdraw and spend the money. I take gambling as a serious business that can fetch me money and when you remove the money, there will be little interest in gambling from many.

Since you gamble for profits there will be no need for hou go gamble anymore because you are already wealthy. Bit people who gamble for fun like myself will continue gambling when I am wealthy. That's the time that I will enjoy gambling the more, because I wouldn't have any emotional truama or sleepless nights after losing big.
Trust me, you would only enjoy gambling for a while and afterwards, it will become very boring because, Agree with me or not, there is always a kind fun that us derived from knowing that you are very limited in finance and any mistake of gambling with an amount of money you can not afford to lose and then losing it, you and your family may go hungry, such knowledge help install a kind of fear of losing in you even though you are gambling for fun.

So, even while playing for fun, there is still that little fear of losing in us, and a small desire to win even though it's not really a priority, that is, even while gambling to simply have fun, a part of us still desire to win because in reality, there is actually no fun in losing money, and there is also a kind of joy and satisfaction we feel in our hearts when I know that we are still lucky..

So with infinite money, I doubt anyone will still enjoy gambling except when you play against friends to beat them.

Even when we play just for fun, losing can still make us feel disappointed, no one enjoys losing. However, playing for fun helps reduce the stress and pressure that comes with it. If we know our financial are limited, we should never force ourselves to gamble. Losing in that situation will only make things worse.

Luis Diaz has made the right move in his career by joining Bayern Munich, and he will become a key player in Kompany first team. Arne Slot won't necessarily make him a key player if he stays. Liverpool will likely use the proceeds from Luis Diaz sale to sign Aleksander Isak from Newcastle, and they are currently reportedly working to offload Darwin Nunez to raise funds.

So Liverpool are really looking for a new striker to replace Mo Salah in the future because it is predicted that Mo Salah will retire next season or the following season it's just that I was a bit surprised that Luis Diaz was released and I can't imagine how strong Liverpool would be if they really brought in Isak, Liverpool will probably be the team that spends the most in this transfer window.
Liverpool aggressiveness in the transfer market this time gives a big picture that they are very eager to defend the EPL title and win the UCL trophy. Several big names have been successfully brought in such as Florian Wirtz, Milos Kerkez, Jeremie Frimpong and Hugo Ekitike, but Arne Slot is still not satisfied with the squad material he has, he continues to try to find a new striker as a rejuvenation in the front line as well as a long-term projection if Mo Salah leaves Liverpool after his contract expires.

After spending a huge amount of money to bring in several top players, Liverpool are now still trying to bring in Alexander Isak, if a deal is done with Newcastle, Luis Diaz departure to Bayern Munich will not affect them. It is clear that the hard work that drains energy, mind and money in this transfer market is part of their ambition to win several prestigious trophies this season.

You are right. but I have my opinion, if someone really wants to diversify their assets and is already investing in Bitcoin regularly following the DCA method, then investing in Bitcoin in another way can also be done as diversification. For example, let's say he is investing $200 weekly in Bitcoin from his discretionary income. Suddenly his income increases. Then if he thinks that he will invest the rest of the money somewhere else, then he can buy more BTC for long-term holding when the price of Bitcoin will be DIP. He will create a separate fund where he will deposit his extra income and when he feels that the price of Bitcoin has decreased comparatively, he will invest and hold as much Bitcoin as possible. In addition, his regular Bitcoin investment will continue. This decision can be better than any other decision. Because investing in Bitcoin will always give much more profit compared to any other investment.Bitcoin is a much more profitable option for future security.

There is nothing wrong with a guy who might choose to set aside other funds for buying the dip.  That is not really called diversification, even though it is employing more than one method for accumulating bitcoin that might result in accumulating more cash if the BTC price does not dip.

Let''s say that we have a guy with a $50k per year income, and he is investing $200 per week into bitcoin.  That would be $10k per year and that would be right around 25% of the guys income going into bitcoin investment.  Maybe if he already had been buying bitcoin for a full year, then he has $10k worth of bitcoin and whatever  amount that his bitcoin holdings had appreciated during the time that he had been accumulating it.  There are websites that we can look up the numbers to make sure our hypothetical is realistic... so maybe this guy has 0.14507 BTC after one year of $200 per week.

So then how much is the raise? Did he go from $50k to $60k or maybe from $50k to $55k?  The extra amount or some proportion of the extra amount could be set aside for buying the dip, as you mentioned. I am not sure if there is any compelling case to be made for doing it or not doing it (except that in the case that I described, the guy is already allocating a pretty high percentage of his income to bitcoin investing.. and so hopefully he has already established an emergency fund, or maybe he might need to spend some of his income or the bonus money to shore up his emergency funds).  No matter the case, bitcoin investors can decide these kinds of balances of their income and their extra income.

I am now clear on the subject. I initially thought that even if you invest in different ways, it is considered as diversification of assets. However, the balance between income and investment that you mentioned is really very important. Because if there is no balance, if there is no understanding about fund management, then there is a possibility of any loss in the future. And the most important thing that I think is to create a proper reserve fund and emergency fund of investing  in Bitcoin.

There are many countries placing ban on gambling operations in their country on both online and offline, for either religious reasons or as measure towards curbing gambling addiction. But is it making result? while several other countries are rather lifting their bans with less restrictive regulatory policies.

If there's any government officials reading this, it is important you all understand that the ban doesn't in anyway stopped your citizens from still accessing these gambling platforms online with their phones either through VPN. And this evening makes the citizens risk losing their money to the casino whose ToS is against the use of VPN. Your citizens now lose more to these casinos without the country receiving any royalties as revenue raising. Invariably, it all ends in favour of the casinos at the end of it all. Because you can't really stop your citizens from gambling at this digital age, except you plan on manning one policeman to a citizen 😜 , which is not possible.

There are modern better ways to fight gambling addiction such as which I have proposed in my opinion:
> Regularly educating your citizens on national TV programmes about the negatives of compulsive gambling. You can be sponsoring these programmes through the revenues accrued from taxes paid by these gambling companies. Or these companies could as well partner with initiatives and sponsor it.

> Provide skills acquisitions programmes and avenues of adequate job opportunities, because a lot of young people trooping into gambling are doing so as a result of a lack of sustainable means of income which makes them to see gambling is the all embracing means to make money.
You have spoken really and very well and I agree with the suggestions you provided..

I remember what happened in the last administration in my country government before this present government took over office. X(formally known as Twitter) was banned in the entire country simply because the president of my country said he was insulted by Elon musk, the entire citizens of the country who were on X were charged to delete X from their devices and stop accessing the platform, internet service providers were charged to block every one of their users access to X which the did, but then, every one started downloading VPN to use to access X even down to most government officials 😂

Every one started using VPN to access X and after a couple of months, the president saw that the ban was not effective as every one was still using and posting on X like they used to before even some of his government officials, he then decided to quietly lift the ban.

This is same thing happening with casino bans, I've always made it clear that banning a casino in a country can only be effective in two ways only..
1. The people don't want to gamble
2. The casino themselves banned the people access to the casino.

Anything outside of this two is a complete waste of time because as long as the people want to gamble and the casino allow users to visit and play through VPN, the people will always gamble even from countries where gambling is banned.

but I'd love to see Evolution's table on Metawin with multiple sits, it will be cool to gamble with Metawinners.

So, has Skel ever mentioned anything about Poker? There are so many amazing projects coming up, why is there a silence about Poker?

Honestly, it would be really perfect as MetaWin keeps a close-knit community. Sadly, according from Queen, their license doesn't cover such.


https://discord.com/channels/1015884443606593566/1015884444395130882/1395841738769174688

But I would still keep the suggestion coming as Skel might do something about it as he sees more demand grows. Perhaps he could discuss it with his legal team, at least.


Poker really would be awesome. I didn't know you need a special license to offer this. I wonder if some other unnamed sites that offer poker since a short while are actually in possession of such requirements to offer this kind of game then. You never know, right.

I think while the demand is growing, it's still not THAT popular in the crypto community. Sites that offer poker don't really have a big player base the frequently sit on the tables, at least that's my personal observation.

That seems to be the number everyone is obsessed with right now. Wherever I check on this forum, or reddit, or wherever, I see that it is not really looking like it's that complicated, we should be considering this as a way to improve it as much as we can. What we need right now is to make sure that we are seeing 120k to be more consistent first, we did break over it but then went down, we need to make sure we are 120k+ and staying there for a while, before we start thinking about 150k, if we can do that then we will get the 150k price eventually.

Always think of what you have Infront of you and not what you may have in the future. If you think that much about the future, you will lose focus on what you already have, and make a mistake because you weren't careful enough.

Even on youtube and on other crypto forums, this is what they also are saying. They put this message everywhere and it gives hope to people who just come in to buy BTC. It may really happen or it may not. It gives us something to piece together information while we are seeing more.

The one thing  that almost make them sure of what BTC might in the next few months is because of the assets management coming to buy.

I'm not spreading Fud, but with almost the entire market spreading and obsessing over this number. This reminds me of the 2021 bull run, when everyone on every social platform was spreading and believing that bitcoin would hit $100k. But then, not only did bitcoin fail to achieve that goal, many people failed to make a profit and lost money because they believed too much in that number.

Will that scenario repeat itself? I do not rule out that possibility, I believe that besides those who make profits, there will also be many people who lose money in this cycle. That is the nature of financial markets.

This is not the first time the owners of Ripple have been cashing out. CEO Brad Garlinghouse was accused of selling about $150 million worth of XRP from 2017 to 2020. Other co-fouhders such as Chris Larsen have sold off close to $450 million in time past. The constant movement and sales of XRP by these creators shows that their motives is just to acquire wealth. Bitcoin was not created for selfish interest rather it's focus is to foster decentralization and give people an alternative to fiat. Bitcoin has no competition because it it doesn't have thesame goals like altcoins.
And despite all these there are people out there who think XRP can reach $100 and have fully diluted valuation at $10 trillion.

Nah, bitcoin will have 10 trillion, any altcoin on the other hand at best will just reach $1 trillion valuation if there's very bullish scenario and I think XRP is too overvalued.
