Good day guys!

I was searching how to earn bitcoins in telegram chat and someone PM'ed me... 'why not join gambling site?' I asked him what site that he/she talking about, he replied stake.com and visited it, but my question is this... is it really legit? I mean, if i win the minimum can i really withdraw? I want to ask here so that i won't waste time (like those earning via captcha solving) since this forum is all about bitcoin. And is there an alternative than stake.com?

P.S. I'm 52 years old and new to crypto things.

Haven't tried it. Sir, if you are 52 I'd reckon that you'd want to actually enjoy the twilight of your life. Gambling is addictive and if you are new to crypto -

it is very inadvisable to engage in crypto gambling.

I can understand that you want some insight into the site, and here's my personal opinion, I haven't tried it. So to somewhat assist you here's my personal take:

1. I actually went and visited the site and noted the 5 letter domain. Judging from the high powered domain name, I'd roughly estimate the value of the domain (the website's name) to be roughly, 6 to 8 digits in value. This means that the name of the website is really expensive.

2. So what? You'll ask. Well, if a website domain is expensive, it means that the owner needs to recoup his expenses in maintaining the site and has to make money from business generated on it. Take that what information you will.

3. Based on the chat box and visitor count on the site - it has a significant amount of players.

4. Most of the games are casino related, and I noticed that there are no sports or esports. Dice, Baccarat, blackjack, etc. Now, I have a question myself to you. As a non crypto person, would you entrust your "fate" or ability to win, on an unseen algorithm that will decide for you?

5. It seems that the site is "reputable" - having a strong domain name - is 1 indication that they are a serious player in the space, so I would assume, not based on experience, that yes, if somehow you manage to win, you will be able to withdraw your earnings.

6. Sometimes google can help. Here's how it works: in google, type these:

(Name of website) plus (bad word or whatever you fear is going to happen to you)

Try it!
