Man, simple thank you. Not that I didn't know most of the things that you post, but your explanation leaves no doubts about how Bisq (and chain analysis) works. You fill some gaps in my knowledge, and thank you for this. Cool
By the way, I don't face any issues, or I'm in a special need to "clean" any of my BTC. Also, I have XMR and I support it from the moment it was created it and there is no other coin like it in matters of privacy and anonymity. However, it isn't a coin that I use for my spending, but mostly for my "vault".

Fantastic game. I only saw the highlights but it seems as though it has to be one of the best semi-finals in Champions League history. Even though Yamal ended up on the losing side, he is simply an outstanding talent.

Even if I'm a bit disappointed since I believed that Barcelona would manage to be in the Final, the match was indeed one of the best and memorable matches in this phase/ stage. At half time, when the score was 2-0, I thought that Inter would have no problem at all, and probably we witnessed a bigger score difference. But entering the second half, things changed drastically, and it seems that Barca will turn this game upside down. However, Inter said the last word and big congrats for their mentality in the entire game. Now, let's see if the second semi-final will be as exciting and suspenseful as yesterday's...

A friend of mine knows someone who wanted to bet on a game specifically Nuggets vs. OKC (Game 1), which is already over. It was more of a friendly bet, if you can call it that. The guy had no clue about online sportsbook odds, and he was super confident the Nuggets would win.

Even you know that this guy doesn't have a clue about sportsbooks etc., most of the friendly bets don't have odds. When you put some bets with your friends in the living room, waiting for a match to start, they are mostly straightforward 1:1.

He offered a 50-50 straight-up bet, so I took it... but I already knew OKC were heavy favorites. Still, I didn’t wanna risk it, so I placed an online bet too, for the same amount he did.
And guess what? Nuggets won. He got his win... but I also won - and even more than him.

So, everybody is happy. Next time, though, maybe you should join forces with him and play together. Cool

We don't really need slot machines everywhere these days because put simply everyone is glued on their phone and gambling is accessible through there.

It's as you said. Now, anyone can access a site and gamble from their home, bar, beach, or wherever they are. However, for the owners of establishments like bars, putting slots is an extra income for them. And a good one if someone stuck with it.

Slot machines being installed in random places is still a thing albeit illegal in most of the world where there is any regulation. There are very few places in the world that you can find slot machines outside of licensed physical casinos that are dedicated to being a casino and nothing else. Hell, many places even go after claw machines and such for being too much like gambling. It's better to keep it this way imo. Slots aren't a children's toy although they look similar.

It's a fact that by putting slots everywhere, gambling will increase and problems will arise like mushrooms. No Government wants this to happen. They need to have it regulated with specific requirements to avoid any problems, like kids' curiosity.

So when you go buy groceries with your need they don't need to look at this.

True, but they will see the lottery tickets, the scratch cards, or a monitor showing Kino... Roll Eyes

Yes, but it doesn't really matter because nobody can anything about it. The self-custody aspect reigns when you use Bisq. The problems arise when you use any service that takes full control of your coins.

So, if someone uses Bisq, can they change their coins and at the same time kind of "wash them out" and make them "clear"? Sorry for my question, but I don't know much about Bisq (besides the basics), although I'm very interested in joining and starting to do more trades there.

"Safe and easy transaction" with a stranger? For USDT? This is a ridiculous phishing offer, like most newbie accounts do.
Open an account in any exchanger that you can access from Dubai (Binance is among them), or visit Pallapay and buy whatever amount that you can afford with your cash. No need for anyone, and no one needs you.

This is the main reason I didn't want to bother with most of today's matches, because the odds sometimes don't seem worth the risk, which is why I avoided Panetolikos vs. Kallithea. As for today's match, I felt quite safe with Levadiakos winning, utill I saw Lamia started catching up, even though they lost, their performance was quite outstanding. It would suck if they had scored one more goal and it ended in a tie, I would end up losing my bet, although it wasn't a major sum of money, it would just be disappointing to end the day with such a loss.

Since we are heading to the end of this playoffs/ playouts, matches become more and more difficult to bet on. Not so for the playoffs, which are "ended", but for playouts. Teams are fighting till the end, and everything is on a thin line every time. Three rounds to go with Lamia heading from now to the lower division.

I think they were offering inputs on what good support should be like, not feedback on our existing services.

Now that you say it, it seems that way. Though IMZ Noo Account could reply and clear this up, it would be much better for all.
How about my previous question, regarding some numbers from your exchanger? Can you share some info?

Three more matches today, Lamia vs. Levadiakos, Panserraikos vs. Volos and Kallithea vs. Panetolikos. I only participated in the two first ones, betting on Levadiakos winning, even though last week was unpredictable and ended in a tie, and Panserraikos winning against Volos. The second one has already been won, not too bad, and the first one is currently live, with Levadiakos scoring one goal in the 15th minute of the game. Hopefully, we won't have any surprises today.

Man, as easily and without stress the Panseraikos game ended, the Levadiakos game ended with full stress and difficulty. At least, it ends happily and not the other way around. Wink
I also bet my favorite 1.75+ on both games, and for my good fortune, I didn't include in my parlay the third game between Kallithea and Panetolikos that ended goalless. Roll Eyes

The Porsche Taycan Turbo GT w/Weissach Package has a starting price of $233,350

Well, yes and no.
1- My car cost at the time I bought it around $135k (~125k euros) but because the previous owner was a friend of mine, I paid 110k. Not near the price that you say.
2- However, the price that you say isn't wrong, the model that you search is wrong! Porsche Taycan Turbo GT w/Weissach Package is another model, not the one that I have. Wink Cheesy

Re: 75$ Bitcoin Trading Signal 🇺🇸

on 04/05/2025, 19:10:46 UTC
If you want to get customer, that is not the right way. You better build your reputation first by giving free signal for some times. We need to see your skill first before we decide. Besides that, many thread here saying that we don't have to join in the trading signal subscription because we can learn trading by ourselves.

But if you give your signal and that have a good progress, while you build rep here, you can continue your business and invite people to get more signal by joining into your subscription list. That will be better for you because people see your skill and you give them a chance to profit with you.

That's indeed the best way. However, OP's intention and primary goal here is to get his hands on others' coins and not to offer a "service". It's more than clear that he throws some bs numbers to convince naive people to follow his "signal".

I’ve got everyone in a frenzy, I love it. Scam this, scam that. Why charge instead of just making money yourself blah blah. Same old same old. I charge a small fee because you are GOING to make money. I would like to receive a compensation for the profits Im providing for you. the signal is going to make 6.06% return on investment. An I’m wrong for feeling like I deserve my just due ? My goal is to help people make money that’s it.

Helping others doesn't refer to profit, nor do you get any compensation by doing it. So either you want to help them or you want to earn from them, and it's pretty obvious that it is not the first. The worst is that you are trying to earn by scam and not because you really know something that others don't, or they can't speculate.

Once again, I don't like the fact that too many people believe the "tainted coins" narrative.

But since some DEXs can lock your coins and get you in trouble until you comply with their AML policies, it looks like the problem is much bigger. People are afraid of tainted coins and companies follow stupid policies to comply with stupid rules.

I don't disagree with you, it's indeed stupid, and we know why they do it. But it's a fact that they do it and force you to follow it.

1. BISQ, where you can exchange BTC for multiple FIAT payment methods.
2. P2P, although there is a big security risk and I don't suggest face-to-face trading. You can do digital P2P though. You can even use this forum for this purpose.
3. Use services that sell various giftcards and use them to pay for goods in your local region. A good service, so far, is Bitrefill. Essentially this is encouraged because it facilitates the "living on bitcoin" idea.

I didn't say that you can't find alternatives, but none of them are fast or easy-going. Since people believe that they can be at risk, all aspects and options are affected. I mean that people who use Bisq or P2P can also be afraid that the coins that they will get are "dirty". It isn't as easy as it sounds. Undecided

Re: mecacex Is it fraud?

on 04/05/2025, 18:16:25 UTC
No, you don't have to file a report in every country. Fraud reports are processed by the offender's country. Our report has already been accepted by the Vietnam police in the offender's city. If you file a report in your country, nothing will happen. If you file a report in the perpetrator's city, it will. That's why there are so many crypto scammers. Because users can't reach them or choose the wrong route.

We have reported MecaCex for intentional fraud through various methods, including market manipulation and embezzlement of customer funds/coins. All with evidence. He has defrauded countless users. He has stolen liquidity from crypto projects and sold the coins on other markets. And so on.

Well, you are right but that isn't completely accurate. You can file a lawsuit for international fraud, but it hardly ever comes to an end. As you said, it's far better to do it in the country of the scammer, however, most people don't even know which country the scammer is in. Do you include people from other countries, making it an international fraud/ scam scheme, and not only for the Vietnamese clients? IMO it will be helpful.

I was absolutely pissed off, Aris literally scored on the last minute, ending the match in a tie, it was absolutely disheartening. I honestly believed we would have won, but that's football, never let your guard down, it can happen in any minute. Atromitos on the other hand played great football, I would never have expected them to score 4 goals. Fortunately the odds were quite decent to minimize losses from OFI, but this isn't about the lost money or bet, but the defeat you feel when your team losses at the very last minute.
Anyway, time to look forward for tomorrow's matches!

Losing a bet at the last moment is certainly the worst way of losing. Especially if we are talking about your favorite team. As I said, one more goal was needed, but they couldn't deliver. OFI is one of the teams that I like, they have a plan, a passionate crowd, and if they continue without interruptions, they can achieve more. By the way, the Cup final is close, and even if it's very hard to conquer it, anything can happen.

That's the best thing we can do, whether we lose or win. Today's games are crucial for all the teams except Olympiakos, but they certainly want to win and celebrate the Championship on their home ground. PAOK also needs the 3 points, so I'm waiting for a very suspenseful game. I won't bet anything except both of them to score, same bet for the other game between AEK and Pan.

So far, so good. At half time, Olympiakos and PAOK are tied 2-2, while AEK is ahead by one goal, and I'm sure that we will see another one. Cool

Atromitos is surprisingly winning against Asteras Tripolis with four goals! I wasn't expecting them to win, but also, I wasn't sure who was going to win either,  so I went for over 3 goals scored. I'm also delighted because OFI is winning against Aris, this match was a tough choice to make, but decided to support my local team no matter what, even though the odds were against me. We shouldn't be too quick to judge the outcome though, as we still have more than 20 minutes to go, and a lot can happen within these 20 minutes.

What a result for Atromitos! Thankfully, I bet only on the goals (1.75+) and not who will be the winner in both of today's matches. Sorry for OFI man, they did so well until the finish. But you know, if you don't score, you will probably get one. They needed to score another goal and secure the win.
Tomorrow are the derbies, and besides the goals, I will bet on Olympiakos to win. For AEK vs Panathinaikos, I still haven't decided.

Re: Isn’t it kind of killing the fun if we try too hard to control our emotions?
by

on 03/05/2025, 18:20:51 UTC
Get mad as fuck at whatever game you're playing and rage bet til your broke seems like a sound strategy right? Controlling yourself from going crazy is what controlling your emotions is all about. You can be happy or sad, but the moment you get angry and start betting out of control you're really pushing your luck and probably going to end up going bad.

I never saw a player get lucky when betting like a madman. On the contrary, I saw players get luckier when they calmed down and relaxed a bit.

Now let’s flip it. Since we allow ourselves to enjoy the wins emotionally, then maybe we should also face the losses the same way.

Happiness in gambling is a feeling that comes only from winning. Nobody can be happy if they lose. Knowing from the start that the money that you bet is gone helps to be a little bit less sad and angry if you don't win. Controlling your emotions doesn't spoil the fun, but it can make it last longer if you stay on game. If someone finds it hard, then better to stay out or gamble less than he usually bets.

But he already stated that he is facing some limits because of Coinbase. He is talking of some limits per day/per month, so I believe even his bank is involved. So even if you talk to Coinbase, it's a waste of time if the bank won't allow it.

He is facing the usual limitations that all have when we join an exchanger. All the exchangers have those limits, but they can also all surpass them if you want more. However, you need to contact them, because AFAIK, they don't say anything in their FAQ for such cases (except one or two).
I don't know if OP has a limitation issue with his bank, but since he says that he wants to buy a 100k chunk at a time, I guess he has already talked with his bank and knows if and how much.
By the way, I think that OP is just another troll wannabe whale who wants to phish something out of this "issue"... Roll Eyes

on 02/05/2025, 20:52:24 UTC
Having a strategy IMO, can be effective in sports betting and skill games. Even if it's "poor". But for games like slots or lottery, which are based on luck, I don't believe that strategy matters. Besides having control over your bankroll and emotions, I can't think of anything else that you can call a strategy and affect your winnings. I don't know if someone uses a strategy for such games, but for me, never change anything, no matter what I try. And things like playing in a tournament for bigger chances or specific days of the week/ month/ year, I can't consider them as a real strategy. Luck matters the most, and it can hit you at any time or never.
