✔ We do not accept Bitcoin at the moment, only USDT (ERC20, TRC20, BEP20). But adding BTC is under consideration if there’s demand.
Are you seeing any signs of such demand? I regularly read this forum, and the more I do, the stronger my impression gets that gambling is becoming one of the main use cases for Bitcoin. I hardly see this much discussion about any other use case. Still, it’s hard for me to believe that. What do you think: could bitcoin holders actually be interested in services like this?
If they would be the target audience having something to gain (more than others do with just fiat / crypto), than surely, there would be a flock of people, it's just the fact that if it's needed at all to create such a target, imo
I was surprised to see that India is one of the countries, where Bitcoin is legal. There were lots of forum posts about India having strict anti-crypto regulations years ago. Maybe the Indian government had changed it's position regarding Bitcoin and crypto in general.
The state of bitcoin were neither legal nor illegal and then Indian banks started restricting the bank accounts that used to receive funds from exchanges and then where the court ruled out the ban issued by banks and later government regulated all crypto as a part of digital asset and levied a hefty 30% flat tax rate on all the capital gains with no exception at all. And this is taken to discourage crypto users in the country meanwhile they realized the numbers are too big and impossible to ban so they just wanted the tax revenue and nothing else in the favor of crypto users in our country.
The question for them is only how much they would bite off from the people doing it on CEXes and such..
They’ve scooped up 1,955 $BTC for around $217.4M at an average price of $111,196 per coin. That brings their total holdings to a massive 638,460 Bitcoin, cementing their position as the ultimate Bitcoin whale.
I like Micheal Saylor moves about Strategy bitcoin accumulation and it will pay more as the company continues to buy bitcoin. If bitcoin gets to $1 million by 2030, Strategy will really be in more big money. The world will adopt bitcoin more, countries will buy more bitcoin innto their bitcoin reserve, we should expect more price increase and Michael Saylor know all these.
He doesn't need to speed up the processes already going, and that is the strength of siding with BTC: you just do what you do and get results for it, not making risky, impulsive decisions.
CZ is having a lot of fun this days, Bitcoin wasn't even invented, it was a creation of different investions. Bitcoin uses hash functions, it was already a creation, it used scripts which are already an invention, it used encryption which was already an invention.
Bitcoin is rather a creative work of a smart man and that man is Satoshi Nakomoto. I also don't agree with the AI thing else I'm not sure if we are going to be looking for a solution for quantum solutions without compromising the network.
The brilliance of BTC is to combine what's already there in the greatest system of all time
Bitcoin and gold have their own advantages, but are very different from each other mainly for one reason: volatility.
When you buy gold, you must keep in mind your investment isn't going to return much profit, as it's just going to keep its value through the stability of gold.
Meanwhile, Bitcoin investors are facing major and unusual profits by investing on this cryptocurrency, much superior to what they could make through traditional investments.
Both are considered strong store of value, but the risks involved and results achieved are too different. With that in mind, we can decide more accurately which one we should go for.
Do you think that one day, Bitcoin will become as slow-volatile in nature as gold or even less?
Spot Bitcoin ETFs aren’t designed for hardcore Bitcoiners – they’re built for traditional investors who value simplicity, compliance, and familiar structures. Not everyone wants the responsibility (or stress) of managing private keys, and that’s okay. The ETF model gives them price exposure without the tech hurdles, and for some, that’s all they care about.
ETFs are not designed for anyone who truly values their coin. They are created mostly for those who are already too big to be worried about it.
Do you think spot Bitcoin ETFs are a problem for Bitcoin or anyone interested in investing in Bitcoin?
As a significant investor of a spot Bitcoin ETF with the current price equivalent to over 3 BTC I had no intention of ever buying Bitcoin with direct ownership and using it for what it was originally created for. I couldn't care less about using Bitcoin for cross-border payments, or its decentralized, borderless design...
I would just double down on what Ambatman said: it's not a problem, rather, it's just another option, but without having real access to your coins.

Re: Do you consider bitcoin as a currency or as a digital investment asset
I consider Bitcoin a digital asset with strong value and investment. That works well for me so I'm still doing that. If you research, you will get many different answers about that but yes, many people consider Bitcoin as an investment. They don't want to lose Bitcoin by using it as a payment. But hodling it for a long term will be better for them because they can make a profit from that. They want to have many Bitcoins so they are still accumulating more and I am sure they will do that for the long term. They use Bitcoin as their investment, like gold and others. So no problem if we have different answers.
If BTC is accepted as the means of payment and so on, wouldn't it bring its price even higher than it is now?
That's on my mind when people say they wouldn't use it..

Re: Do you consider bitcoin as a currency or as a digital investment asset
I actually see these two options for bitcoin, but I have no interest in using bitcoin as a currency. Though it’s kinda selfish, but where there are potential profits, that’s what I should be focusing. And bitcoin as an investment matters to me the most than any other uses for bitcoin.
The question is more on subjective because it varies from one person to another. But one thing is certain, where we can benefit bitcoin the most, and gain passive income even just through hodling, that’s where I should be giving highest consideration.
Some will use BTC because it will get them benefits from doing so, others will HODL because they want to gain from BTC in such a way, everybody is able to learn about BTC and use it, and that is truly beautiful.
As Entrepreneurs we get into various business transactions. And consideration must be considered. Having the characteristics of money especially paper money, what's stopping you from accepting Bitcoin for your business transactions?
1. Payment Setup (needs additional expenses for this) 2. Clients/customer (possibly no enough customer using Bitcoin as payment option) 3. Knowledge about Bitcoin ( Lack of knowledge on implementing payment gateway) 4. Fear (fear of messing up the security settings of the payment gateway)
Most people believe in not reinventing the wheel if it is not broken, although the monetary system has lots of flaws, many merchants believe that it is not broken in terms of the payment system so they want to stick with the system that is already proven rather than implementing a new payment option that is new to their knowledge.
Unfortunately, it's true.
But those grabbing new opportunities first are usually the first to get the biggest results from it

Re: Will the Next Generation Even Care About Bitcoin’s Origin Story?

I am interested in whether OP used AI to create this topic and its insides, however, the question itself is good, imo.
Those who want will always be able to get back to the roots and learn about them.
Bitcoin should not be kept in one wallet, because if a single wallet is hacked, all the bitcoins will be lost. But it is definitely wise to collect bitcoins in multiple wallets, you should notice and think that the more wallets the safer they carry. El Salvador is a long-term holder so they should definitely use more wallets, using 14 wallets they hold 6285 bitcoins. In my opinion, they should use more wallets, because they are constantly collecting bitcoins so the more wallets they should use the safer they carry.
The more, the better, but the more wallets there are to guard, the more likely one of them would be cracked (due to human factor, probably).
So it's a question that would need the balance from both parties.
Do you guys think that this will be a viable option in the future, or will governments refuse to allow it to happen?
The blockchain technology is what will always remain relevant and applicable to every usage, which I also see as a more better alternative to the use of other centralized central server systems developed and being controlled by the government, when we talk about the use of satellite in this regard, very soon, we are going to see the way the entire world will start to deviate by developing their own satellite which can be sufficient enough in serving its purpose within their own coverage, countries like China and Russia will always want theirs separately and been controlled by themselves, it's not also safe for bitcoin to go by the use of these parallel networks, because everything about bitcoin should point at decentralization.
They do it for the control, unfortunately, not for the sake of what BTC pursues
So I would sway such a possibility for BTC away as for now, because everybody is eager to go into it and adopt it into their own chains of operations on different levels.
It is a misconception that everyone thinks that if they want to invest in Bitcoin, they only have to invest a huge amount of money, this is definitely a misconception. Whether rich or middle class, anyone can buy Bitcoin according to their ability and hold it for a long time, there is no obligation in Bitcoin investment, here you have to buy Bitcoin according to your own ability. Bitcoin will undoubtedly be the best investment for a long time, it offers a higher chance of success compared to other investments, if it is kept for a long time. Because Bitcoin is the asset that has proven its strength and value over time and will continue to do so in the future, and it will continue to grow even bigger.
I hope BTC will become more than just investment in the future - but the best alternative to use out there besides fiat and so on.
As for now, BTC's volatility still dictates how people and bigger firms look at it: but it all will change eventually.

Re: How Bitcoin's technical evolution impacts the modern economy
Right, it is very easy to make fast Bitcoin transactions through the Lightning Network with a small fee. Over time, the credibility of Bitcoin is increasing among people, a large number of people are showing great interest in investing in Bitcoin because they believe that Bitcoin is digital gold, it is possible to protect against inflation by investing in Bitcoin. Large institutions are showing great interest in investing in Bitcoin because it is becoming a big part of the global economy.
If LN and BTC itself becomes more used overall - that would be a dream come true.
Not as a reserve as most countries see it - but as something that would be an option just like fiat for anything.

Re: 🔥 BC.Game - Casino & Sportsbook | Official sponsor of O'Higgins FC
It's very common to see game streamers or streamers of children's and teen content broadcasting live casino games on Facebook and Instagram. Here in brazil, most streamers targeting young audiences are doing this, it's becoming very common. But if they're operating an account with fake money, I don't see it favorably. I don't know, it sounds like false advertising. What do you think?
What brings results - brings results.
You wouldn't be able to check what kind of money is on the account anyways, so..

A strategy that doubles the bet after every win? Hmmmm!
I thought the strategy was doubling the bet after every loss, which I am familiar with—the Martingale strategy.
This is just a version of Martingale strategy basically. It's just a simple compounding strategy where a small investment can become something huge if luck decides to side with you all the way.
Best to avoid these sort of strategies and focus on low risk ones instead though you should always invest only what you are willing to lose either way.
I agree.
Stability always wins over the potential in the long run, imo.
One day banks will accept Bitcoin as medium of exchange and accept deposits from bitcoiners. As soon as the world powers accept it as medium of exchange.
I read somewhere, a proposal on the possibility of banks accepting Bitcoin to be an advantageous thing towards Bitcoin security. How?
It follows the theory of how easy it is to rob a single individual, a house hold than a bank. While this might be correct, Bitcoin doesn’t operate under this protocol. In fact, it’s more easier to rob exchanges and its users account by brute forcing it than hacking a wallet.
There wouldn’t be much need for you to save Bitcoin investors a bank, your keys maybe but, not having to deposit your Bitcoin with the bank. Bitcoin can’t function in the same way as fiat, you are supposed to be your own bank.
Bank is the same house, just with bigger bags lying around.
So, I agree - it's a wrong view on the matter, which favors the banks just because.

Re: Bitcoin now constitutes about 1.7% of money in the world today .
Bitcoin gives us the opportunity today to make a good investment for ourselves, and it doesn’t matter whether we started just now or earlier. I’m very glad that I learned about this investment opportunity because I’m confident in the bright future of bitcoin.He has a lot of potential for development and growth.
Bitcoin is the future alternative to the traditional world.
Not only that, but it's the best alternative out there to be at the helm of your custody
Yeah I don’t buy the collecting cans for 2 years and getting an entire bitcoin.
How much was bitcoin 2 years back? Like $35K or so. Even if you found $30 worth of cans a day which is an entire days work there is no way you would have enough if you even managed to buy all your bitcoins at $35K.
Most people who collect cans are homeless and buy food instead of investments like crypto.
As it was said, the story is more about discipline and making what you do count than about collecting cans as a good way to get a good amount of BTC... I too don't buy into it in that regard
