I used to use bitcoin cash when it was at $400 but stopped because of that fork. Now I use bitcoin pretty much exclusively unless I get rain or something. Bitcoin is more convenient for me now because there is a bitcoin ATM near me and I get a very good rate and it's faster than any way I usually buy online.

Agh I kinda don't want to know what others users look like, I've already decided what they look like based on their name and personality in my head.

Its anyone's guess but I'd be weary as every time it goes up a bit a lot of people waiting for that price sell driving the price back down. I'd wait until it has a few consecutive days of significant gains before I'd call it a bull run.

With 100 bitcoin I would sell all but 5 and put the money in safer investments. Having that much, I would try not to gamble it as I figure I'd be betting way too much in order to really have fun.

I generally don't because I forget but I hope that my topics provoke interesting discussion for other players and new ideas to make stake better.

perhaps they could make the amount you have to wager in order to chat larger, that might cut down on the amount of spam. Although there are rich beggars and poor beggars so maybe not.

Busting a lot and not even getting rain is pretty rough. Other than that the bug in mobile where it puts the highest bet as 1 unit over your balance is extremely annoying as you have to manually change the bet on tiny lagging phone lol

I have mixed feelings with ghost mode, on one hand it's nice to avoid the barrage of friend requests and pm's from people who want money, but it's also fun to show friends that crazy multiplier you hit. What do you guys think about perhaps an additional setting being added, ghost mode except for people on friends list? Or maybe being able to remove ghost mode from bets if you accidentally had it on when doing a challenge. Do you guys have any other reasons for using it or not using it?

hmm odds are better with dice however at least in plinko you can recover every so often by hitting a smaller multiplier and that sustains a lot of bets to get to 5000x. In dice you only have the number of bets limited by your balance.

I'm assuming here that in this scenario 100 Bitcoin is put in my stake account out of the blue. First, I would set up at least 10 different wallets and withdraw evenly to each. Then I'd buy a hardware wallet to keep the bitcoin more secure and transfer it to that. Can't convert it all to real money and put it in the bank as the government would be on my ass immediately so I'd cover my tracks and take out small amounts when I need to. I'd probably also diversify the bitcoin and exchange for some other types of coins as well as buy gold and silver so if crypto crashes I have something that will still have value.

Being able to bet any amount you want no matter how small or large. A lot of sites have a minimum bet which if you're not rich busts you very quickly. The other thing is winnings aren't taxed like they would be at a real casino.

for me worst on stake is keno occasionally you get extremely lucky when the same numbers keep coming out or unlucky when you don't have those numbers. Worst in real life is roulette, I always pick red/black wrong lol.

haha "the magnet" however I have noticed that after a very long streak of reds you get a small streak of big multipliers which I figure is how the house edge is at 1%. You either need to get in at the perfect time or have a big enough balance to get through the reds.

@Hoffguy but I'm sure he's a lot of peoples best friend as he's always happy/drunk and constantly tips everyone. I don't think he has ever placed a bet either.

Gambling addiction is sort of funny compared to say drug addiction because it's the only addiction where the person can become extremely wealthy. The Mayo Clinic says about gambling addiction, "Compulsive gambling, also called gambling disorder, is the uncontrollable urge to keep gambling despite the toll it takes on your life. Gambling means that you're willing to risk something you value in the hope of getting something of even greater value. Gambling can stimulate the brain's reward system much like drugs or alcohol can, leading to addiction. If you have a problem with compulsive gambling, you may continually chase bets that lead to losses, hide your behavior, deplete savings, accumulate debt, or even resort to theft or fraud to support your addiction." It's all fun and games but I urge anyone to STOP if gambling has affected your life in a greatly negative way.
