Quote from: Darker45 on Today at 01:16:00 AM
I'm afraid you're misleading if you just say gambling is an investment. Gambling itself isn't an investment. On the contrary, it's a way to lose money.

Anyway, I think there's not a single crypto gambling company that's public. So, it's kind of hard to invest in one. Moreover, I haven't heard of any lately that conducted a crowdfunding or solicited investments from anybody.

But if you've got much and you're really interested, there might be a way to get a direct line with startup owners or those that have just entered the market. I believe our managers here have direct contacts with the teams themselves.

Otherwise, you'd just content yourself with bankroll investment.

Without a proper education on compounding, probability, and expected value, people believe that anything that looks like money-making gets labeled as an “investment.”The world's view and perception on investment is without structure and ends up as a trap in the long run.People only internalize the wrong story and informations.

We are offering you best service possible at only 0.1% fee.

This is misleading. This only applies to amounts above $5,000. Am I right?

Also, do you provide your own liquidity?

Read the conditions

Do you even have this? Or you're telling users to read what doesn't even exist.

Anyway, I'm a little bit worried with this: "all coins we receive are exchange-grade and clean, except for BTC. BTC has an AML of 30-40%, which isn't ideal".

While I don't subscribe to the idea that there are clean and dirty coins, considering the reality that platforms these days could freeze and even seize your coins due to their AML scores, isn't it generally risky to receive BTC from you?

Why do your BTC have high AML scores?

Because AML systems don’t evaluate intent or context — they evaluate patterns.

When Bitcoin is exchanged through decentralized, non-custodial flows, the transaction often looks fast, multi-hop, and routed through unknown intermediaries. To automated AML analytics, this resembles obfuscation: funds move quickly, sources are aggregated, and counterparties aren’t labeled as regulated entities. That raises a moderate risk score (30–40%), not because the coins are criminal, but because the system lacks a familiar compliance narrative. In short, the risk comes from missing context, not from dirty funds. This is our philosophy the AML algorithms approximations to lower risk but also a bias.

0.1% is a best possible outcome if you are looking for gains better to batch your transactions in high volume.

But that's life. Terrible or not, it doesn't matter. That's what it is. I remember a hippie saying "relax, nothing is under control." Perhaps that's the full truth.

There's a bad need to be in control. There's always that struggle. That's probably why decentralization seems revolutionary. It sounds romantic, giving back power and control and ownership to individuals. However, what about the infrastructures on which these decentralized innovations are running? What about the devices by which we can get access to them? Are we in control of them?
Humans are always too quick to adapt or accept their fate on everything, this reason is why even at the point where resistance is supposed to occur it seem stuck because some people already accepted there won’t be change, however we can all accept how messed up things are even though humans can’t leave without control just like one of the old philosophers Thomas Hobbes “said that society without control will be solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short.” yet the fact that ownership is more hard than we can imagine has left the state of control or guidance to a state of excessive control which is very terrible.

Hence the fact that we have decentralization which is virtual yet it’s a threat to the centralized system show how much freedom or leaving out of rent is dangerous to the ecosystem of government.

I deeply understand the points you are trying to make, the world today is more like a rented place even from our birth you can see that you are not assured of living but very much guaranteed of your death and the mere fact that you will temporarily here, furthermore; government or individuals that we elected to represent us in the day to day running of our countries now force everyone leave their properties in their hands to share amount us, it’s really bad that we can’t own lands for really, it’s all rented, we pay taxes for everything which also a subscription for living in our fathers land… infact in general the live we live are rented, when they decide to take it away from us they can. What a terrible life.

The idea of decentralization is somewhat romantic, and it sounds so revolutionary because it directly attacks the central problem of centralization, which is who controls data, identity, and value.
Considering your question, “What about the infrastructure on which these decentralized innovations run?” We realize that decentralization only reduces dependence, since hardware is manufactured by a few, the operating system used obeys others, and the network passes through regulated ISPs. Furthermore, energy depends on states and corporations. It would be more honest or realistic to say that decentralization does not promise complete freedom, but it does offer resistance to the abuse of power.

Quote from: Darker45 on Today at 02:42:42 AM
It's always a race of skills. Those who are able to rise above the rest will come out victorious. I believe luck plays a minor role.

Yeah, it's process over outcome, but it's still all about outcome in the end. It's the long game that matters. Short-term outcomes aren't indicators of long-term success.

In a way, it's like Bitcoin investors. Those who have developed diamond hands, those who have seen the wider picture, don't care much about short-term fluctuations and the gains of those who are taking advantage of them. In a market where everybody is trying to be the strongest hodler, those who last win.


Everyone thinks skill guarantees success.But In reality,the higher the skill,the more luck decides outcomes.Investing isn’t just about being smart,it’s about surviving randomness, staying humble, and respecting the unseen forces in every market.In investing,skill is essential but it's not sufficient.Skill alone can’t protect you from volatility, but adoption and resilience do.

Well, just so you hear what you seem to want to hear, Bitcoin might not stay relevant for an infinite period of time. Today, it may be futuristic. A couple of centuries from now, it may grow obsolete.
Bitcoin is not a first cryptocurrency but it is a first decentralized and successful cryptocurrency which laid solid foundation for one of biggest innovation in human civilization history. Since 2009, Bitcoin is the King in cryptocurrency industry and with what has shown so far, Bitcoin will maintain this leading role for many years ahead.

Will Bitcoin be replaced by something better?
Who knows?
But I believe it won't happen soon, as it is super hard to have another decentralized project and blockchain like Bitcoin with an anonymous founder like Satoshi Nakamoto.


Even if Bitcoin is not the first digital currency still it manage to became  most successful decentralized coin. Then it became the foundation of the whole crypto industry due to its huge success gotten for many years.

Its endurance and success gotten since 2009 and combination of absence of Satoshi Nakamoto make people think that this coin is not been controlled by anyone, This give a exceptional position which is hard to copy by other cryptocurrency in the market. Lots of project offer new innovation but they didn't match the decentralization, demand and cultural impact that's why most of new coins died then Bitcoin remains. I believe that Bitcoin will stay for many more decades and those attempt to replace it on top position will just remain dreaming that they can achieve that goal.

Exactly the endurance through multiple "Bitcoin killer" cycles proves the point, its the base layer everything else feels like an experiment or an app built on top of its ideas replacing the foundation is a fantasy when the foundation works this well.

Quote from: Darker45 on Today at 02:21:57 AM
I don't think users here should get any special treatment. A good gambling site should have a good support, that's regardless of where the player is coming or referred from. After all, this isn't the only place where most gambling sites are promoted. It's not as if their operations or success are somehow dependent on their presence on the forum. So, why should we be given undue priority? Any reliable gambling site should resolve tickets without discrimination.
Of course, there's no difference between forum members and other gamblers using a casino. We are all equal and should be given the same priority. A good live support and fast in resolving whatever issues gamblers are facing is the best.

Ticket resolving shouldn't be a problem to a reliable casino in order to build more confidence in gambler. Discrimination will only kill the business for casinos. What I can consider is treating the VIPs more special.

Rather than looking at Bitcoin's limitations that may seem to make them better alternatives, you might want to look at their limitations that challenge their very own survival.
Bitcoin is not perfect but it has its strength and advantages which can not be found in thousands of altcoins so far.

It's usual to notice a restaurant here, coffee shop there closing shop. Where I'm living right now, computer shops, bars, and other memorable spots have turned into something else, but the junk shop nearby where kids, who are all adults now, used to sell their metal and copper scraps is still there.
What is interesting is how these junk shops are not too many across the streets that it creates that much competitions which threating the existence of some others whereby terminating them in the way that the restaurants, tea shops and what have you are littered across the streets and are turned to memory.

And with these thrift shops selling second hand goods and merchandise the price are pocket friendly for buyers and most durable than those high-end stores with high prices that very few people can afford to patronise.
You're right. In my own country and neighborhood, there are only a few secondhand shops. In fact, I only know of one in my neighborhood. I once wondered how they could make money like that, and after investigating, it turns out they actually resell the items to other parties on a large scale. This is determined by the store owner buying from the seller and the other party buying from the store owner. I've seen many people working as collectors in the secondhand shops I know in my neighborhood, so I think this business is indeed profitable.

This is true, those junk sites hardly relocate unless the government want to do major developments across where they operate. They would always stay in business because people kinda like the idea that what they always trash can be sold for little money. That little renumeration is what keeps the junk shops booming and constantly in business.

Don't be surprised Darker45, even those adults you knew when they were kids are still in the business (As long as they still live in that area) and have sections of their house where they keep tin cans from drinks and other steel trashes until they are plenty before taking them to junk shops. In my private office space, a neighbor who I regarded a big boy visited my shop and made away with those tin cans in my trash, urging me to always keep it for him that he invites a worker of a nearby junk shop and sell it to him.

This is true.

Here in my country, it's interesting to note that you can seldom see junk shops going bankrupt. Just this year, I went back to one of my childhood's neighborhoods. I left decades ago. The place has changed a lot. You know what remained? The popular junk shop.

In my place of residence, the second-hand goods shop has been around for more than a century and the shop has now been inherited by his son and until now it is still running normally, we rarely see if the second-hand goods shop suffers losses or goes bankrupt because they only spend relatively very small capital to buy second-hand goods from the community, sometimes they can even get goods without having to spend any money if there are some people who donate them for free to them so that the second-hand goods shop can get big profits with very small capital, especially since they have no business competitors so that the second-hand goods shop can survive for a very long time.

Well, does that only means that the person is making a lot of money from the business and that's why his business is still up and running? Well, maybe he is, but this could also mean that he is very good at business management, which means that maybe he is not making a lot of money from the trash business, but he is at least making enough money for himself and his family, so he kept the business alive by managing things properly, and all other shops and places that closed down weren't able to keep up and run their businesses efficiently.

When running a business, the most important thing is to know the demands of your customers, and deliver accordingly, this could be for both regular and new customers, which means that your business should be able to adapt new trends and demands that enter the market, so that you can get new customers because of that. If you keep your business old, outdated, and boring, it won't last very long, because customers always love new things and updates or upgrades, and they will only keep coming back if they get their demands fulfilled.

Quote from: Darker45 on December 17, 2025, 01:53:34 AM
No, it's not the customer's responsibility to cover for the loss. The agreed price when the transaction took place is the final price.

As for the business, it's either the operator liquidate the coins right away or risk keeping it for a while to make additional profit. It's for him/her to decide. Whatever happens, it's his/her full responsibility, not the customers'.

I think this is the main hindrance to merchants adopting Bitcoin payments. If they do, they have to use payment processors that immediately convert Bitcoin sales to fiat, which is in a way pointless.
I have to agree, with the unpredictable price for bitcoin, merchants are discouraged to promote bitcoin used for paying goods and services because they themselves are even fearful if price suddenly drops its price, then they have to wait longer for its recovery before they can roll their sales and buy back again some stocks for their business.

Bitcoin is good and profitable, but I think bitcoin will be good as an investment for now, having it as a mode for payment may only be applicable when the real global adoption takes place. However, we can still use it for some selected merchants who are also accepting bitcoin and hold it as their investment.
