I think that the so-called legalization and the official recognition of Bitcoin as a legal tender means of payment will simply become another opportunity for governments to impose taxes and various fees. Are we ready for the fact that a portion of our cryptocurrency, and quite possibly not a small portion, will have to be given up? And how profitable will that really be, if after all the fees there’s a chance that not only will there be no profit, but we could even end up with losses?
I will tell the situation in my country that bitcoin had good status because recently my government has just make some policies to protect bitcoin users and i think this is bright move because although bitcoin still hasn't admitted globally and some people are still doubt about it but at least my government have concern to develop of bitcoin
About the question would bank will accept bitcoin someday and if we see the movement of my government i am quite confident in the next few years the bank will starting to build the facilities to bitcoin users to accept deposit and withdraw for bitcoin but if we talking about how potential bitcoin will became an the currency i think it's quite hard because as i said before although the government is very welcome to cryptocurrency but they will never considers bitcoin as the currency but bitcoin is more likely like an asset which can be save for the future purposes

They will probably allow it to be used, but to be turned back to fiat while doing so, which denies BTC its purpose...
Right now, digital technologies are developing very quickly, and it’s quite possible that in the near future we’ll already be hearing about the ability to open cryptocurrency accounts in banks. More likely, however, banks will charge fees for this service. I doubt that banks will start offering deposits in Bitcoin anytime soon, since it’s still too risky for them. And even if such an option appears, there’s a chance we won’t be able to access those funds as quickly as we’d like, for example, if we want to sell at a favorable rate.
Bitcoins are continually being lost. People lose their wallet logins. People die without anybody else holding wallet logins. Bitcoins are burned for any number of reasons. All these things and more are reasons why bitcoins are lost, which all contribute to the value of the bitcoins that remain.
These have been happening for long, so it has become a bitter lesson to many of us, thereby making us wiser than them of old. Or are you not wiser than them already knowing fully well the danger of losing your Bitcoin in case something unplanned for happened? If you don't, I guess you should do. I believe that this understanding and taking precautions will not really make the loss of access to Bitcoin be the major reason why it will appreciate in price, but a true adoption and liquidity injection.There is quite a possibility that, over time, AI programs will be created that can locate such lost wallets and, using powerful generative capabilities, retrieve the bitcoins from them. But then the question arises, if such a capability becomes available to people, wouldn’t it also be used for theft? I think that the knowledge of the existence of such wallets has already attracted many developers to the idea of creating such a capability.
The question in the title can only be answered by humans. No institution, no law, your regulators, or other disasters. Humans must working together, than they can keep Bitcoin maybe alive “forever” (I cant imagine infinity, and I wont live that long). It probably started with human activity, even though CZ said that Bitcoin was invented by an AI from the future. And in the end, it will also be controlled by humans. So far, nothing has been stop Bitcoin, and I believe that will continue in the future.
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.
Everything will depend on how important Bitcoin is to global authorities. As long as it is needed, it will continue to be developed and popularized. The most important thing is that the goal should not be solely about achieving total control, but also about providing a way to solve various financial problems and crises in states, as economists mention, so that economies can survive and function as smoothly as possible without causing too much pain for citizens.
My country, for example, is currently at the stage of passing a law on the legalization of cryptocurrency. Of course, there are no reserve funds in Bitcoin yet. However, there are already bills on how to take money from people who own cryptocurrency. It seems like it would be better if this bill does not pass, because cryptocurrency can already be cashed out without any problems. But if it does pass, 23% would have to be given to the government, which looks more like robbery than improvement or progress.
Casinos do not care rich and poor because they would run in negative balance without profits. They want to make profit from people losing but they know rich customers lose more money than poor people and students.
Students are not the wealthiest clients for casinos. They have bigger spenders than students. Poor people and students are some of the vulnerable clients gambling companies want to keep because they make up parts of their profits.
I think casino don't make any judgments about rich and poor gamblers because they prioritize their profits first. They categorize those who are rich clients who spend a lot. I think a casino can be most profitable if there are people from all classes, rich and poor and students, on a casino platform. If someone does something just targeting a particular class, then that casino will never be profitable. There are many poor or student gamblers who spend a lot on gambling which even many rich people cannot do.Gambling in a casino is meant for adults, which implies a mature attitude toward money and taking responsibility for one’s actions. An adult decides for themselves how and where to spend the money they have. The only thing worth paying attention to is periodic warning messages while a person is playing, to help them better control themselves.
It seems to me that in countries with lower living standards, gambling is more widespread strange as that may sound. People believe in even the slightest chance of getting rich. Similarly, in countries at war, I know for sure that soldiers often gamble to relieve extreme stress, and this can lead to serious consequences, since many of them suffer from severely damaged mental health.
Odds are always variable; sometimes they start out well according to predictions, and then they can reverse in the end. This can be seen when there are many participants, especially when the bets are large. Indeed, the chance of winning big comes when someone masters the game, but sometimes it can also be quite large when someone, even the owner, uses their signature strategy to divert it in the right way.
I think the results will tell whether the opportunities we predicted work permanently or only halfway.
Making predictions is a very worthwhile endeavor, although they are generally not guaranteed to be accurate because the potential for winning is always less than the potential for losing. Therefore, every gambler or player of a particular game must be prepared for losing, because winning is always a possibility for everyone, and that is a reality that no one can deny. That is why before gambling or playing at a certain stake level, one must be mentally prepared to maintain a strong spirit and avoid immediate frustration due to a loss.I think the results will tell whether the opportunities we predicted work permanently or only halfway.
There’s risk in everything we do starting a new job, launching a business, shopping online—and betting is no exception, I think it’s a good form of gambling, because by using your knowledge and analyzing the probabilities of game outcomes, you can not only make watching a match more exciting by placing a bet on an athlete, but also enjoy the bonus of earning some extra money. The key is that bets should always be for amounts you’re comfortable parting with, without any serious consequences later on.
Games are designed to keep us interested, and that’s what we pay for. We play for entertainment, and the money we put into the game adds excitement and emotion. Of course, there should be safety rules to avoid disappointment. After all, we also pay for other services in life to enjoy ourselves so how are gambling games any different? We don’t go to the movies and complain that they’re making money off us. Usually, such an attitude appears when someone spends more money on the game than they planned. In that case, it’s simply better to set aside a smaller amount for playing, or if you don’t like it, not play at all.
Re: mixers to casino - vice versa ( will it cause problem? )
Mixers are more like a convenient service, and it’s not entirely clear why there’s such a negative attitude toward them. If someone doesn’t want to use mixers, they don’t have to. I think that the more services a casino provides, the more it’s simply giving us options for convenience. I don’t see any problems with using mixers. On the contrary, I’m in favor of having such an option.
Slots are mostly (fully?) about chance. Streaks of wins and losses can make it feel like something is “wrong,” but in reality, the outcome is impossible to predict. Sometimes it seems like the system is against the player, but it’s just how probability works. As it is hard for us humans to accept chaos, to accept randomness, we are trying to rationalize it, to find patterns and reasons behind them.
Slot machines are made for entertainment, not for earning money. Which is why it's important to set limits, stay calm, and enjoy the game, with occasional the wins.

All slot machines are programmed with an algorithm that pays out a certain percentage of the money already put into them, and winnings are distributed randomly. That’s why it’s unlikely you’ll ever spot any kind of system in how payouts are made. The only sure thing is that the program in the machine will never pay out more money than it has in the system. Of course, everyone hopes that their bet will trigger the system and hit the jackpot, but realistically, the amount you win in slots is unlikely to exceed what you’ve already spent overall, at least not in the long run. Slot machines are a form of entertainment, not a way to make money, and the attitude toward them should reflect that.
Re: Government banning of casinos are at their own loss.
It's true that gambling has helped gambler's who were lucky and fortunate as they have won millions which has changed the cause of their life's but one thing that we should not forget is that gambling has a lot of negative effects that is attached to it, so people should look beyond gambling if they are to have a successful life.
Gambling doesn't stop you from having a successful life, there are many successful people that are still gamblers. We owe it to ourselves to be mindful of how we navigate our life, some decisions we take shouldn't be taken because they can be harmful to us but don't think that just because you're gambling that automatically, you aren't going to have a successful life. A vast majority are gambling with a wrong mindset because all they're after is the quick money that gambling promises but they don't get to see it, instead they're the ones losing but since they're now addicted, it becomes difficult to stop.
Just as I am now that loves playing snooker with my guys in the neighborhood, we mostly stake money while playing it so that to add more motivation and excitement to it, did he think it's a wrong thing?
Our approach to gambling is determined by each and every individual and it is what we all should respect, even though we are not pleased with the other persons approach, since it's one way most guys create their fun.
Any baninig only fuels interest and confrontation. I don’t see the point of such prohibitions, in reality, those who played will continue to play online using a VPN, and they won’t be protected from fraud. A more reasonable approach would be to impose proper regulation of the process. That way, the government can replenish its treasury with taxes from the gambling business, and gambling enthusiasts won’t have to go looking for trouble on the internet.
Re: What happens when there is no more Bitcoin available to buy?
Maybe we switch over to other business/ Investment it could be real estate Business or other investment 
. I still can't believe that you will be asking this kind of question when buying and selling in going on. This can only be possible if selling is not taking place in the market, that's everyone will now concentrate in accumulating bitcoin without attempting to sell but this is almost impossible as majority of the investors will be tempted to sell thier holdings some day. So the fact there is that bitcoin will continue to be available in the market, it will be there for you whenever you're interested to start your accumulating journey but I will advice you start early if you're still a no coiner.

No one should get stuck on bitcoin investment alone. There are many other investment that is good and would yield good profit in the long term. Sometimes investing in company stocks and real estate is good. Bitcoin has blinded the eyes of many individuals to see potential opportunities which is not meant to be so. In as much as it is the most preferred investment now, we should always find other profiting opportunities that may present itself now or in the future. Anyway I dont see bitcoin been unavailable to buy even in the next 20 years.
There will always be bitcoin holders who want to sell their bitcoins to raise funds. The greater the scarcity, the higher the price. So I doubt there will ever be a point where everyone who wanted to buy bitcoins will just hold them for no apparent purpose. Right now, bitcoins are an investment used to increase capital. Of course, some bitcoins will be kept for a rainy day, but most of them will be in circulation.
99% of players will never get rich on bets.
That is the real facts of gambling, even though I am not sure the data is up to 99%, but some gamblers are seen so, there is no need to be far, that fact can be seen around us, Your game gambling puts money in the race, don't know who is the manang and loses.Gambling people are the goal of money and win, but rich are the owners, not their players, maybe everyone knows it, but why people keep gambling, that's gambling, You win today to lose tomorrow, win again tomorrow and lose tomorrow, that's what happens, gambling interest in the win and curious section, forgetting to defeat.
Everyone understands perfectly well that the casino is the one that wins first, but there is always the hope for a miracle. Casinos entice players because they still give something back little by little, offering bonuses and creating the sense that, besides the chance of winning a decent sum, you’ll still get part of your money back—and have fun in the process. That’s why players keep returning to the game. After all, we spend money on many stupid things in life, yet not everything is treated with the same caution as gambling. Shopping, for example, is a much more common addiction. Or various kinds of cosmetic procedures they can even harm your health, yet people do talk about it, but not nearly as loudly as they do about gambling.
Watch out, a marriage where both partners or one of them decide to hide their gambling habit comes with a lot of problems, deceit, lies, even cheating can be ongoing in such marriages.
Gambling is one of those evil tools that mess easily with any body's emotions, it can make you do something you've vowed to never do, if you are not ready for the challenges it's better to marry someone who is not into gambling.
Gambling involvement in many divorced cases is very high, just know yourself and what you are dealing with, a responsible gambler will always want to be looked after because they still can't tell if they will do it wrong or not, telling their partners to look out for them shows they are the goat.

I believe divorces don’t happen because someone gambles or engages in some other activity, but rather because one of the partners doesn’t take responsibility for their actions and is simply emotionally immature. When partners in a family are not on equal footing, it often leads to dissatisfaction, resentment, and eventually divorce as a consequence.An emotionally healthy and mature person cannot build a relationship with someone whose psychological age is stuck at 8–15 years old. We enter marriage to be partners, not to become parents to our spouses.
Hey all, I have some bunch of questions with regards to slots. I have been thinking about it, so let's answer the much we can and have a good discussion on them. Here they are :
- Do online casinos upgrade existing slot games with new characters, graphics, and features? or is it more common for them to discard older games and launch entirely new titles?
- Do upgrades to familiar games affect player loyalty compared to introducing a brand-new game?
- Also, are upgrades restricted by the original game’s software architecture or licensing agreements with developers?
- Think about this for a minute, which is more cost-effective. Is it enhancing existing games or developing new ones from scratch?
I think most casinos will have to upgrade some of their games, specially as time moves on. I remember those old games in a brick and mortar games, now there's nowhere to be found and so I think they have been replaced by new ones already.
The responsibility is on the game providers and not the casinos. They are the one that will have to talk to the the gambling authority about what upgrades that they will have to or what new games they are going to released next. So it doesn't matter if it is going to be just a enhancement or new ones.
I don’t think this is the most important question. I believe both options are used, updating old games and creating new ones. It all depends on the budget the casino is willing to spend on reconstruction. If the games always stay the same, it could lead to boredom, and players might play less frequently or stop using the casino altogether. However, drastic changes are not always good either, especially if they are not intuitive. Not everyone likes change, and if it’s too radical, it might also push players away. Those who work on promoting and optimizing the casino know better than anyone how to attract their customers and offer them a good alternative.
Re: Warning : Don’t Ever Let Others Use Your KYC in Gambling Sites
That's true, but is there really someone do lend others to use their own personal information for KYC? I mean putting your ID online is dangerous enough, what more with all the detailed information along with the selfie. Also, even if I personally know the borrower, I wouldn't dare to let anyone use my identification. Lastly, you'll not know what they will do it, perhaps just like what you've said, sell it to others, use it to open other accounts or worst, use it to illegal things.
So it's really not advisable to lend others your personal information, at ALL COST.
So it's really not advisable to lend others your personal information, at ALL COST.
Sharing your personal data with third parties is generally a bad practice. Even in personal financial transactions, it’s important to carefully check who you are giving your information to, what guarantees of protection are in place, and how that data will be used. It’s also worth clarifying whether it’s possible to have your data deleted after the transaction, and if that option exists, I strongly recommend taking advantage of it.
As for sharing your personal data with others for the sake of gaming, that is an enormous mistake and an act of carelessness. From my own experience, even the closest relatives can cause plenty of problems in such situations, so this is definitely something you should never do.
Re: What would you do if offline casino refuses to cash out winning?
I hope that the situation that has happened in the video is very rare, but this situation also shows how unprotected gamblers are. When gambling online, its easy to scam gambler by freezing account when person tries to withdraw by asking to pass KYC and repeat that favor, by simply closing account after saying that ToS were violated and etc. Now look how easy it is to do similar offline, by saying no to cash out. How easy it is to confuse a gambler, spoil mood. Video author was smart to start recording, but there are people who will get back to gambling and losing, after being refused to cash out.
We live in the age of the internet, and I think that if people start sharing such cases on social media and other platforms, these companies will simply begin to lose customers, since there is already a wide range of alternatives available. In this way, justice can at least be partially restored. Maximum publicity is currently the only way to influence such organizations, as I doubt the police would deal with these kinds of cases.
I'm surprised that this thread hasn't attracted any comments. Just in case you haven't heard about the African continent Internet exchange, here is a YouTube video about it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOy7jwi0At8
That looks like one of those videos people who don't understand the topic make only to get views.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOy7jwi0At8
What is being explained doesn't sound new either and it is not exactly "alternative" internet either. It sounds more like "Domestic Internet". A couple of developed countries have had that for a very long time. For example in Iran we built it decades ago and everything domestic runs on that which makes it cheaper as well.
It is basically a national security matter specially in this day and age that everything is depending more and more on the internet. Any country has to be able to have full control over its own internal traffic (eg. the banking system) to remain safe.
Total state control over anything is fraught with dictatorship, as people would have no alternatives. I have a very negative attitude toward complete government control, since at some point it could be used for manipulation and coercion, forcing people to act against their will. Likewise, the ability to block videos that are inconvenient for the government could lead to a distorted understanding of certain complex political situations.
