I choose not to take a bet on the war since it is related to human lives, which is not good for me.
But people are free to choose what they want and if they're going to participate in that betting, they can continue to proceed with that.
After all, we do not know who they are and I am sure they can hide from others.
I hope Futuur know what they did with that bet.

Yeah unethical Somehow feels wrong if I bet on any conflict involving humans and cruelty like war, never looking for it on any platform either. I think it's crazy, there is such a bet maybe we all won't do it bet between the blood of innocent people, so sad.
It's really a shame that war is even made as a bet, I cried reading this article, because this involves the problem of other people's lives, because lives are not traded anywhere, if you make a bet which country will advance to reconcile the Russia-Ukraine war, and which country is able to reconcile the Russian-Ukrainian war, I must really salute you and I will salute you..

Futuur has all kinds of bets. And users there could also submit whatever question they would like gamblers to bet on. So perhaps there's nothing personal there. They probably don't mean anything. They just want to bet on something rather awkward.

However that is to me a bad taste. I would rather bet on something else. The war in Ukraine is not just a war. There are lives lost, family broken, children killed, homes shattered, etc. At the very least, in their honor, I would not make a bet. It is like having fun in a truly heart-rending event.

Already 84 people have participated in this betting casino on that particular discussion, they think it's some kind of game that they can get involved in without having felt guilt that they are wishing that their bet will win, Futtur should moderate this kind of discussion of betting because it's sickening to see people betting on something like this.



Only 16 people bets for real money. I'm not playing this kind of game since t involves killing. but I'm confident that if Ukraine continues to fight, Russia will take action. There is a slight doubt because the continued talks about some peace talks though will do something else.

Will Russia take Kiev by force by the end of 2022? NO is 57% I'm surprised many bettors have a positive mind. Not seeing the West is already attacking in full through sacntions.

This sounds a unethical and messed up. I wonder what kind of people would be placing bets on events like this. Those who bet on Russia hopes that the Russian wins the war? Kill more people? More innocent children? And what kind of casino/sportsbook is that were they are allowing gamblers to place bets on war?
I would say this is wrong and only those who are fucked up would place bets on events like these.

Some sites let us bet on politics, I remember some years ago I win an x5 when trump won as president of the United States and that was my last bet on politics, but now I was curious if there are sites to bet in the current war.

After searching I only find this site to bet in the current conflict:
https://futuur.com/q/149986/will-russia-take-kiev-by-force-by-the-end-of-2022

I don't feel is ethical to bet in a conflict like this and I will not, but I want to discuss the topic, what does the community think about this kind of bet.

Betting on something like this is super sick. I don't understand how people could bet on a war outcome where people die. Thats like betting on the date of a terminally ill child's departure from this world. That is not ok!

We have some lines that we should never cross, as human beings. If you feel ashamed or bad at the idea of doing or saying something, thats your instinct telling you its not ok. Trust your instinct on that matter.

Well, after reading your comments looks like no one likes the idea of betting on this kind of event. And all of you are right, the war is something terrible and not something to bet on.

If any casino decides to let users bet on this it will be terrible propaganda, and it could cost some customers for the business.

That's how this casino works if you know how this casino works anything can be created here and make people bet on it, even killings and war, I don't find this kind of betting attractive to people who find war abominable, war should not be treated as sort of game because lives of people are at stake here.
When you are betting you are hoping and praying that what you expect to happen will happen, you don't want to bet on one side to inflict damage to the other site, you are making yourself a devil's advocate.

Are there really people who will bet on this? What do they think of the situation? A joke?

There are people who are just doing their daily routine then suddenly will be bombed out of nowhere.

Russia is more of acting as a terrorist here. Why kill innocent civilians? I don't understand the root cause but I'm not dumb to think that their doings are brutal.

I find it unethical to bet in a war nobody wins in a war and it's something that you don't do because there are people involved in it but that's the nature of Futuur you can create a betting discussion like this, it may seem natural but not appealing to me, even if you win a war you still lose because of the cost and lives you lose too.

I'm not going to support that kind of betting for an obvious reason.

There are lots of usual betting to choose from, why shift into something not ethical? I also can't imagine that there will be a betting site that will open a betting market for it. What do they think about the situation? Creating money out from the worst situation just to make sure their business will make a profit.

I don't know but maybe there are people who like to bet on that. I can't understand them so good luck to them and hope they won't hit bad karma later on.

I'm sure the site that will open a betting market for that will received backlash from the gamblers and might be, they will not support that site anymore. It's unethical to bet on that kind of event as war is even worst than a pandemic. There's a betting back then about pandemics but it's not something that started with a force from a country against other nations.

That's the worst bet. I don't see I will satisfy to win a $100 where there's a people suffering worst than having a Covid-19.

Even from my gambling perspective side, I don't see myself betting on that kind of situation.

Innocent lives are getting killed every day with that bullsh*t attack wherein it's not totally about between country's war*** but instead more on leader's ego which is just instructing commands on their airconditioned room. Some might contradict me here since technically, I'm not a Russian or Ukrainian but we can take this to the Politics section for a much deeper debate.

Moving forward, there's no way I will bet on this. Because of that war, fuel price pumped here (which actually already pumped even prior to the Russian invasion of Ukraine) and as a person who uses a car daily for work-related trips, I'm now seeing the big effect on it.

Everything is business and the gambling platform have tried to make some revenue out of the conflict.

I'm curious for this phrase @Vaskiy ... can you give me some examples of gambling platform "that have make revenue out of the conflict?" excluding some tokens that allow you to set any condition in a smart-contract ... I don't think there are gambling platforms that have speculated on this conflict (nor on other conflicts) ....
And is there really a betting platform that managed to profit from it!!?

Well, unfortunately there is a saying in my country that goes like this, "While some cry, others sell handkerchiefs"
But I make it clear that I am totally against this type of act, as I already explained in my comment above.

People who made this one are either sick or hungry to make money just for the click just like how vloggers does on their thumbnail.
If on voting for politics I would agree with that since it's normal to vote for democratic country but voting on a dying people is not good.

I would not place a bet on that but I' m not going to stop or condemn others who would do so. Don't be surprised if you see lines on the occurrence of a world war 3 or if EU accept Ukraine as one of member country.

It may be worthy to note that gambling itself is deemed unethical in some regions or ruled as illegal and yet we find it okay if some people don't follow that.

wow, is this really serious!!? In fact, is there some kind of way to bet on countries during the war?

I confess that I am very surprised by the ability of some people to "play" with these types of things. Well, betting on politics or something similar until it's acceptable (up to a point), betting on which party can win the elections or something like that (this is acceptable)

But betting on a certain country and knowing which one will be victorious or not during a war, this is unethical and immoral (of course this is my humble opinion about this subject).

When some is suffering for the survival and the same is being used as a way of money making isn't a fair game. It is unethical and not many join this. We can report this to the platform and surely they'll remove it. If this continues we might see the betting odds for the number of deaths on each country, befor that happens it is good to stop them.

It is actually a weird thing to do. This is human life not like is animated features captured in animals like bull fight or some other animals. I don't think I will have to do such betting because it is not a joke that people are dying. Taking human lives for joke in the time of war is looking unpatriotic, unsympathetic and dehumanizing. I think the sites shouldn't have allowed this type of betting but anyways , in times of sorrow it is time for another to joy.

Only futuur do make out such betting line which  it might be part of their future kind of betting but they should at least made out some exemption of this one because its no fun on seeing
people dying and make out bets and thinking on making money for yourself which is very unethical to do so. Surprisingly there are sites who do really make out some this kind of
betting which for sure it would give out some negative impressions on that site

I would agree that it is unethical and it honestly never even crossed my mind that people would consider doing such a thing.  I guess I'm a believer that bets like this should have a right to exist on prediction sites, I wouldn't participate and would probably think less of anyone that did.  Prediction sites are great when their community is good and honorable though.  I remember one of the early Bitcoin sites I interacted with a lot was bets4bitco.in or something like that...  Anyway, most of the bets were about fun things like whether or not aliens would be confirmed to exist by the US Government by a certain date.  Unfortunately it turned out to be a scam and everyone's coins were stolen.  It was fun while it lasted though.

This is something that is simply not correct, there is a big difference between a political election and a war, I also made a bet for Trump to win, even if I did not liked him, and I earned a decent amount out of it, but in the case of this war we are talking about lives being lost or turned upside down and a country losing the opportunity to determine their own fate, so while in theory people can gamble their money in anything they want I hope that people do not do this as the topic is too serious to trivialize it in this way.

For political kind of bets then its considerable but this one turns out not to be ethical honestly on which even if you are a gambler you couldnt afford on betting on a war if you do know
that human lives are heavily affected or simply lots have died.

I dont know if there are people who dont really care and do still make out some bets despite of that certain condition but for me then i would surely pass on making out
some bets in related to this.

Surprisingly there are sites who do offer kind of betting which is a little bit across on the border.

I think its an easy bet to make. Russia wont take kiev by force by the end of 2022. I don't think that's the plan of Putin anyways. The NATO and other forces won't let that happen as it is a strategic loss for them to be watchful of Russia. Literally all of western media is portraying Russia and its President as an evil man that just wants to invade Ukraine and almost eveyone is either supporting Ukraine in its cause or abstaining to get involved into the matter (other than Belarus).

Whether everything can be bet on gambling including the war conflicts of Russia and Ukraine, even if one has been addicted to excessive gambling but it is very unethical to bet on conventional issues regarding the safety of the Ukrainian nation from the Russian war conflicts. At least we should pray for the realization of peace from the war conflict even if we don't physically provide assistance to Ukraine.

I was trying to see whether they were licensed, and it turned out that they were, but it was based on a yes/no forecast with a long time period. I wanted to react at first, but it's only a poll, so nothing very substantial like humans or other difficult aspects is involved.

The platform isn't to be blamed but those who are going the extra mile to wager on the outcomes of war are the faulty ones to be blamed, there are other things to bet on, but it appears they are bored. After the horrible things that have been seen online, the last thing anyone would want to do in a war right now is to gamble with the lives of people.

I don't think you can bet directly on war event since it's hard to verify information and it's hard to set the terms of the event itself.
But most of all ... this is not ethic and I don't think there are bookmakers that want this bad reputation.

probably only "oracle" token can be used for a bet like this, but even in that case I guess no one want promote an activity like this.

I won't bet on it, it's like a moral obligation not to. It's quite interesting for me to bet on politics when I know the history and background of those that are on the book but with a peaceful election.
But if it's about betting on war, I won't do that. It just feels weird and really not a good thing to bet for when you know that lives are losing through that war.

If it's a bet against political parties, a reality show or something else, that's understandable and not too inhumane, but betting on war and the outcome is almost equivalent of betting on human lives and that has gone more than a competition. For those who may see nothing wrong with it, remember that some people are really in serious situations that we don't need to joke about.

Gambling was a good concept and people like to do that.The bet was essential was get into all the concern.Previously it was only on the spots of football,cricket,chess.Now the same was moved to the War concept now.My suggestion is the gambling on war won't be run for the longer period.Because the war will be start and end with a short period by the influence of the world country influences.

I can't understand it, it turns out that there is also a prediction site that puts the Ukraine and Russia conflict at stake Shocked

I have never tried to play in the futuur and I would not want to be involved in such predictions, I just think it really hurt both sides (Ukraine and Russia)


Prediction always had some logic,then it surely wins.If you had invested in the future.You need to online 24/7 for the long run.I had some investments on the future and had some loss and profit.Being a positive minded person was the essential one in all manner.So it also applicable to the trading also.But you should know the time of withdrew of certain thing.If you find the chart run with the 100 dollar loss,you should sell with 100 dollar loss in the future trading.If you skip the same,you may face to lose the entire investments.

futuur usually tackles all kind of events including current political situations. unfortunately, this is war and there will be thousands of lives who will not see the light of the day again. based from the betting line, there are already people who betted on this item but mostly in ooms, which is the free coin in futuur. it is quite a sensitive subject, so as a gambler you can always opt not to bet on this kind of event.

by the way, i noticed that futuur added this bet history feature. so you can now see who are betting on specific betting lines and the amount. so far, a lot of users are still using the ooms coin. so no harm done.
as far as i know freebitco.in also often makes bets about politics but for war they usually don't do that. I know it's the right of the futuur to hold a bet on the outcome of the war but to me, it's still unethical. will there be a reprimand received by futuur?

Whether everything can be bet on gambling including the war conflicts of Russia and Ukraine, even if one has been addicted to excessive gambling but it is very unethical to bet on conventional issues regarding the safety of the Ukrainian nation from the Russian war conflicts. At least we should pray for the realization of peace from the war conflict even if we don't physically provide assistance to Ukraine.

Some sites let us bet on politics, I remember some years ago I win an x5 when trump won as president of the United States and that was my last bet on politics, but now I was curious if there are sites to bet in the current war.

After searching I only find this site to bet in the current conflict:
https://futuur.com/q/149986/will-russia-take-kiev-by-force-by-the-end-of-2022

I don't feel is ethical to bet in a conflict like this and I will not, but I want to discuss the topic, what does the community think about this kind of bet.

It's not right at all - people are being murdered by a brutal invasion from Russia and the outcome should not be a game to make money on. Let's hope that any site which supports such bets gets hacked or ddos attacked into oblivion until the owners learn to have some basic standards and dignity. You have to draw the line somewhere, politics is one thing - who will be the next president, who will become the next head of the IMF, etc. but this is a step beyond and taking advantage of huge suffering. There is plenty to bet on already and new opportunities every day, that don't involve unspeakable violence, so there is simply not excuse for any betting site to allow it.

While I do understand that the nature and scope of gambling can be anything under the sun, I think it is highly inappropriate to bet or wager into something that involves the lives of the people at stake. I mean, some may attempt to do this but this is something that goes against the morality and human nature- betting on the lives of people can never be considered as normal and appropriate.

Even if there are websites that offer such betting option, I highly advise against so as it really contradicts human nature and morality. With all the available betting platforms, why choose this kind of platform?

Like you said, it's totally unethical and such or this kind of betting shouldn't be encouraged at all, this is not like a boxing or wrestling match where most things we see on our television is staged, this is real people going through pain, misery and agony, they need our sympathy and support, not we trying to make money off their pain, it could be us, it could be anyone, we are lucky to be on the safe side, we should pray for them, and support them in every little way we can and not use their predicament as a way of enriching ourselves, it's totally wrong and I don't support.

It's a controversial matter, because there are many lives in danger, people losing their houses and goods, women and children have to leave their homeland, while men stay to fight and die with honor.

Meanwhile, some people start betting on these events from the safety of their countries and houses, just to have some fun and make profit over the disgrace of another people.

Of course it's not nice. It shows a total lack of empathy with another human beings. There are so many gambling categories to bet on, so why to bet in such sensible matters?

I can't understand it, it turns out that there is also a prediction site that puts the Ukraine and Russia conflict at stake Shocked

I have never tried to play in the futuur and I would not want to be involved in such predictions, I just think it really hurt both sides (Ukraine and Russia)
