Be careful with nostalgia

Sometimes an old athlete may want to come back for some special match. Some bettors might still bet on him despite of old age and lack of recent experiences in the sport. That is because of what we call nostalgia. They might recall the past memories or past performances of the athlete that may not necessarily reflect the recent performance of the athlete. So be careful when betting because you might just be nostalgic.

Re: US Americans can now donate towards reducing national debt via Venmo

The United States should better look for a better way to pay for their dept than to be looking for donations. It would be better if money is donated for homeless people than the government. What are they collecting taxes for? It is highly discouraging seeing United States sinking in the dept of debt.
I am afraid that a lot of Americans may fall for this. They might think that they would be doing it for their country but they most likely wouldn’t know where their money is going to. They might think they are being patriotic but they’re just making a mistake. It’s like paying taxes twice.

For me, I’ll stop when I have won a pretty good money. Preferably double the initial bet however any win and I should know it would be best to stop. So many times it has happened where I was winning but kept gambling and in the end I just lost money and never got to win any more. So if I won, I should at least keep some and consider stopping soon.

Re: Chances to buy Bitcoin back

It's not a bad idea strategy if you have a big stash and trading as a hodler as the small gains make a big difference,  it even gets better if you are leverage trading which will give you profits either markets go up or down...

But for a small account,  you might trap yourself and buy expensive bitcoins..and besides today people talk about DCAing and selling shouldn't be the idea  Smiley

BTC to the moon

Very often, due to the desire to make short-term profits, long-term cryptocurrency holders become hostages to their own desires. They sell assets that they originally wanted to hold for a long time in the hope of buying them back cheaper when prices fall. This can lead to the cryptocurrency market continuing to grow, and instead of having assets that generate profits, they are forced to hold stablecoins, which do not allow them to earn as much profit as volatile assets. In my opinion, the desire for short-term profits and changing one's strategy very often has a negative effect.
Yes, it’s regrettable when for example you sold your money immediately when bitcoin hit $100k but now you will see bitcoin hitting $120k or more you will definitely get FOMO and think of buying again but hold on to that urge and just wait for bitcoin to correct. It will correct and then you can buy.

Re: much money in the foodball and in general in life is a ruin

I'm making this post as a light Atalanta fan after learning a few days ago that Mateo Retegui has decided to leave for Saudi Arabia to get more money.

I don't want to generalise but I think that money, seen as an end, as a good, is the ruin

Money is useful, let's be clear, it is useful for everyone but to think that it is the goal to be pursued by overlooking people or honor and loyalty is something squalid
What do you think about football?
I would not blame anyone not just from football but in any sport. After all sports are also businesses deals and sources of income and that is their career we are talking about so if they think they see a better future with another team then there is nothing to talk about. It would be devastating for fans of the team but sport is a business too.

Re: What is been professional like to you?

Is been responsible with gambling all it takes to be a professional gambler or someone needs to win in the process many times already to be considered a professional gambler?
What if he is just extremely lucky that is why he keeps winning? Is that called a professional gambler already? Anyone can be lucky and anyone can be responsible but I would not just call anyone a responsible gambler.
Quote
What is a been qualified as a professional gambler in your own world? The winning part or the responsible part of trying to avoid addiction is all.
Probably someone who uses gambling as a source of income. If he has learned how to play a game that uses strategy then that may be considered as professional.

Re: Has El Salvador been lying to the world?

No way am I going to trust what the IMF says on this issue. If they have really been buying it and keeping it in cold storage, it's very easy for them to prove it. The purchases are managed by Stacy, Max Keiser's wife, who I hope will respond to this accusation soon. Although I wouldn't bet my life on it either.

The IMF hates bitcoin because it takes power from them so it wouldn't surprise me at all if they are lying about it.  Their credibility - both with regard to bitcoin and economics in general - is zero.
There could be ways to verify what both are saying and this is what is good with blockchain tech, right? They can't just manipulate proof because anyone can verify for themselves. But right now, there are so many uncertainties going around. El Salvador remains to be genuine about their bitcoin journey though since they are the ones who first took the risk and made bitcoin legal tender anyway.

Re: Crypto Betting vs FIAT Betting
by

on 24/07/2025, 13:18:46 UTC
I think there’s not much difference now between crypto and fiat betting, especially since the government started forcing platforms to implement KYC. Crypto was supposed to give full privacy letting us gamble anonymously, but with KYC in place, that kind of defeats the whole purpose.
A lot of famous and big crypto casinos require KYC too anyway so as said there is not much difference unless you are really using a complete decentralized casino then you would just prefer crypto for that to maintain complete anonymity. If you are not that strict about anonymity, you can still use crypto for privacy and for convenience.

Even binance had to move their headquarters from China. China had so much potential and yet they decided to antagonize crypto.
China and Asia is known to be pioneers of tech and innovation. There are so many people in Asia and China particularly that are tech savvy and before the ban, China was known to have high transactions in bitcoin.

The US on the other hand is embracing crypto. Adopting it faster than any country.
There are also other countries who may be following US. Like UAE, there have been many moves that are definitely making sure that bitcoin is being welcomed properly in the country.

My question is did he trade or did he just buy at a right time then sold at a right time? I think you should inform him that bitcoin is doing really well right now because it is currently on a bull run but there are possibilities that bitcoin will not be doing so well later on. Sure, it can recover but there would be hard times. Regardless whether how good bitcoin has been treating him, I do not think we should only depend on one source of income. We should always have safety nets.

Re: Does the novelty wear off?

If you are extremely rich and you can just gamble up to your heart's content, does the novelty of winning wear off? Like would you get tired of gambling since there's really not much risks because you can gamble with any amount and still receive little to no consequences?

I don't think it will wear off. Rich people still gamble because for profit or money. They are rich meaning they can bet more money than what a casual gambler do. High stakes means higher winnings so it would still be enjoyable for a rich person betting a huge amount.
It is still exciting for the rich people but the levels are different. If you are not that rich, $100 is probably very exciting for you but to rich people they may not even give another thought a $100 lol that is why the richer they are the higher of the amount they bet to increase the risk.

Have you ever been successful? I am curious about those who are extremely dedicated to this field. It seems like it is hard to actually be successful in this field unless you have some partial information that can help you. There is also the question of whether this is unethical because you are gaining access to coins that are not yours. It might be considered hacking, is it not?

Imagine, you decide to make a different bet and the result is the numbers you bet on before? I think I would go crazy... Grin
The what if's will be definitely insane. I think it will not go away but just like anything in life we would have been left with no choice but to accept the results of our choices. But then again, not winning your whole life would also give you lots of what if's so the question is still which hurts more.

The Ultimate Scarcity

The most important and valuable resource in the world is time. It is limited and non-refundable. You can never take back the time you lost. Time spent productively is valuable. Every second, every minute, every hour dedicated to something that could improve your status whether that is physically, mentally or financially... expect something good to come out of something you made time for. You have to choose wisely where to spend your time because making this choice, you will be trading an opportunity for another. If you decided to spend this time lounging around instead of dedicating your time to improving yourself then you are losing the chance to be a better version of yourself.

Such actions make Bitcoin look more practical and less like risky investment setting strong example for others. If more important people follow suit it will build stronger foundation for Bitcoin making 2025 potentially very good year for its growth and wider acceptance.
It is a good thing that he himself is confident in Bitcoin. This will make those who are underneath him and as well as shareholders trust him more. It shows that he knows what he is doing and not just following the trend but in reality he doesn't know how to manage bitcoin really. If you do not believe in one thing, how do you expect for others to believe what you preach?

Re: Why some countries gamble more than the others?

Second point is correct because that's the logic.

For the first point it's not really accurate, can't comment though.

I want to comment the article, they value the most countries are gambling using the amount spent in gambling which is incorrect, that's why all developing countries are on the list. They should value based on total gamblers/total populations, although countries who forbid gambling can't be tracked even though there are so many gamblers in those countries.
The article may have only found data from countries where gambling is legal because all the other countries are only gambling secretly or in underground. But I still also think that countries definitely should legalize gambling instead of restricting it and making it impossible to track gambling activities.

Altcoins should be for people who are trading, be it a swing trade or whatever they prefer
Altcoins are known to usually be preferred by those who want quick profits. They are not very known for long term holding because they usually end up dumping after only a few months and they never get another ath. Only very few altcoins remain relevant today like ethereum. But it is also not reaching new aths from what I know.

Redundancy for backup is a thing and I always back up my seed phrase more than one place.
It might be tedious but I would rather go through all that process just to ensure the safety of my money than regret what I did not do. Like everyone always says, it is better safe than sorry so do not be lazy and comfortable. Always remain alert and vigilant. Better to be paranoid than lose all my money.

So I ask you:
- Has your life changed with the "growth" of your country?
Not really sure if my country has grown, lol. There seems to be issues from the past that continue to persist until now. I feel also that individually there wasn't much growth if we are talking about wealth at least.

- If you could choose, would you want more money, more time, or more trust in people?
Is it not possible to have all three? We should strive for most in life and not just settle for one. We should cover everything that we lack.

Which is more regrettable?
by

on 22/07/2025, 11:59:54 UTC
Let's say when gambling, you follow a specific pattern. Let us use lottery for example. You bet on the same specific set of numbers. What would be more regrettable? Betting on the same set of numbers for the rest of your life and not winning or... changing up the set you bet on only for your old set to win?

Basically, would you rather bet on the same thing again and again then regret not exploring more or explore different kinds of bets then miss out on a win?
