Topic: How to self exclude from anonymous gambling sites - page 32. (Read 6797 times)

If you will avail such service, you really have to consider the reputation of the decentralized platform.
Because those staking days, they got a hold of your tokens/funds, so you can't do anything if something goes wrong in their site.
Some licensed casinos though are offering such feature, but if you are very determined with this move, you can already implement it on yourself.

But these decentralized gambling platform does not have a license to operate making our funds somehow more risk of losing, or the gambling platform running away with our funds or not allowing anyone to withdraw.

Enjoying privacy by playing on an unregistered platform or decentralized platform that is not "operating legally" may give us more trouble.  So better be careful when choosing to play in unregistered decentralized gambling platform.  Who knows when they will turn rogue and run with our money?

Anyway, whether the casino is known or anonymous, self exclusion can be done by anyone by simply quitting gambling and avoiding them for a certain period of time.  There is no need to lock our fund, it is more on self-discipline and control.

There are decentralized gambling platforms as well that does not require for KYC, i think they can be the best to be used in achieving something about privacy or being anonymous in using a gambling platform, just that most gamblers were too used to the KYC casinos, i don't think if casinos wallet in general terms were all not anonymous wallets that we can use for our privacy or we should go far away from them.

Someone who wants to do this for Bitcoin is probably better off learning how to use the timelock function. I just saw this thread talking about an easy way to timelock which is somewhat dated (2020/last verified around 2021) though seems to be a working method. It also seems safer than trusting Trust Wallet (Binance) or Atomic Wallet (not the cleanest reputation) with your coins by staking with them.

When it comes on making use of those staking as your way of self excluding yourself then it would be your choice but we know that not all staking set up or terms would really be that the same on which
there are ones who do have that anytime unlock period on which it would really be just that normal that there would be deductions. For those people or gamblers who had been wary for these different
staking terms and conditions then they wont really be that choosing into those who do have some lock up, unless if you are really that tending or having plans of this one in the first place then
its up to someones choice on which it isnt really that a bad option or kind of choice on having that self lock up of funds on trying to combat addiction.

Somewhat it would really be still that pointless if we do speak on trying out to solve out that addiction.Why? There would really be a specific time that you would
really be finding yourself that trying to look for another options on which you could really be able to play anytime that you do want.This is why
it would be pointless as long you do have that kind of intent on mind.

Every Decentralized Wallet dApp provides option to browse from there you can connect the wallet to any web3 site and transact there with full privacy you can use Trust Wallet, Atomic Wallet, Metamusk and any other Decentralized Wallet. So far gambling platforms are mostly run on centralized platforms. so you will rarely see web3 casino sites in the market. Because of this no matter which wallet you use you must create one now on their casino site and perform KYC as required. So in this case no wallet can make you anonymous

That's true, because they won't see anyone face to face and it's easier to talk to a stranger and admit that you're experiencing gambling problems than to someone you know personally.

You just can't trust someone you know personally to handle your problems or just by telling it to them so that you have someone on your back to assist you.

I think that we change based on the environment that we are in. We're not just comfortable to talk about it in real life and easier to talk it with some random forum members about the problem.

Though, I don't know if this has happened to you. But I have got the impression people on the internet are more ready to admit they are addicted to gambling or they have some sort of issue/problem than those I see face to face in real life buying tickets to play animal roulette or other games.
Even here in the forum I have see people to openly admit they have a problem with gambling and they are trying to work on it. It makes me wonder if those same people one see around on the internet would also admit their problems to others outside of the internet.
I guess it has something to do with the pseudo-anonymous feeling many of them have to admit their problems to strangers, in comparison to swallow their pride and say the same thing to their friends and family members. How knows? People can behave in strange ways when comes to struggling to addictions, there is no doubt about it...

Stopping gambling? Not everyone knows the characteristics of gambling but I'm quite aware of those gamblers that place wagers on games, winning becomes so easy as long as you have a steady paying income, they just understands it's easy to grabbed significant opportunities and work on measures to tap out profits and reduce our losses. A profession is important for all being, it must be paying and earning from top grade to medium grades. Gambling is not bad as it seems, we have couple of gamblers that are top-notch in their profession, gambling is just extra job for us to start earning and producing change.

Yeah, it's just a temporary solution but maybe with the period that's set on the staking could give him sometime to reflect that he should just leave and forget about gambling.

A strategy that can help someone but might not do to the most.

I agree, they're unlikely to admit that they're problem gamblers and that's the hardest part when they can't accept that they're now part of the problem and needs some solution to it.

No matter how easy it seems some people can't stop gambling, it's more like a hobby for them and some it's already an addiction, but I am thinking of a less way risky way using your method, what if they stake for monthly returns and they use that for gambling only? What do you think?

They will still have their normal numbers of assets and they will use the gains on gambling, it makes sense as they are using free money to gamble instead of advising them to stay away, mind you, not all gamblers are into gambling because they don't have a job or ways to get passive income.

Some people who are getting paid every week and months are also into gambling, it's not as if lack of job is why everyone is gambling, but having a job is what makes gambling a easy something for me, as I already have good income stream and I am satisfied, but I am still into gambling because I just want to.

I can't just stop imagining what the OP means, maybe it's for some marketing gimmicks but let us not go there. That approach can only make anyone to try to limit the time they are gambling in that package plan, but we should know that it will not be effective as people are not patient with such a gambling style. Fine, they might be involved in this but as they wait for the 21 days for the maturity of their bet, they could be idle and start betting on other things, so it stops nothing. This is why I know that it would not help at all in the area of self-exclusion and I don't know why the OP would even add that to it. The idea of betting and waiting for a longer duration of time is cool by me, it makes you think well before you place the bet and relieves you of the stress of regularly waiting for the result.

But the questions are these; Is it the only thing we can gamble? Can it even give us the regular fun we want in gambling to substitute for the waiting? Also for the last question, we need fun in our gambling all the time, so if we are even gambling that of the OP, we will still have to be forced to gamble in another sector to have fun, this is very normal. This amounts the OP's plan to nothing, it's only when one can control their psychology that they can exclude themselves from gambling when they want, but not by elongating the time, they will surely find an alternative and remain in their condition.

to Self Exclude is to seek help , we need someone to help us out because gambling addiction is
like cancer that you cannot take away but you can heal with the help of doctor as I don't say to help for professional
help but at least some people that we trust and lean on. try asking your parents,siblings or even best friends for this battle.

But maybe I will consider this if I am addicted gambler , to stake all my funds but not just for 21 days
instead I will lock for more months or even year, so I have  a Long term holding and has no capacity to withdraw.

Staking the money will keep us away from gambling , specially those gamblers that has no other source of income but just from work and from winning in gambling , meaning if they will stake their available funds for gambling then they will leave them no option but to wait and be sober from gambling.
but the problem is that those who has lot of source , maybe they will just jump to another way of funding to deposit and gamble more.
though I should agree with this way because at least it would lessen the funds to spend each day if many gamblers do it as said.

South Park, time lock on wallets is not the same as staking or locking your coin on a yielding platform,  but it is a feature that allows you to place a time/date lock on your balance in your wallet, this is the most effective means to self exclude yourself from gambling since only the timer controls your access to that funds and wallet and at first, you be the one to set the timing limit at all time but once set, you give up control o er the timing and until the timer reaches 0:0 only then the wallet will be open for operation.
This method is much more effective than self-control because self-control leaves the gambler with the responsibility to control everything by himself so sometimes it can also fail also most especially in those that have some elements of addiction in them already.

i've watch the video man staking is good when it comes atomic is also part of trustwallet i'd say why not stake them on altcoins? easy to pull and easy to put, but if you really wants to exclude your self on gambling addiction why not find a wife or siblings that can hold your money instead of staking them , what if there's an urgent emergency that needed money? or the best thing you can do is to find something that can make your self busy instead of visiting site that can trigger you to gamble your money again, for example this month your going on a vacation or doing something good for your self open a good business

Except I don't properly understand what he or she meant, else, I did say that he or she is right, though not with the "because it contradict" part.
Any gambler can also stake to earn which is very normal, gambling in the first place was never meant to be a source of income, but unfortunately today, we have alot of persons who now take gambling as another means of earning money.

I personally, play gambling, and I also stake some of my altcoins that offer such possibilities to earn some extra money while hodling.

So, in conclusion, staking and gambling is what any body can do if they choose, a gambler can participate in other forms of earning money, not just stick to gambling.

Who says? you?
So someone else can say otherwise - what makes your claim stronger?

Indeed , staking is for investors that wanted to earn but not to be stay away from gambling because it contradict
the motive and intentions.
still it is not for gambling to use , but for the coin we trusted and wanted to bring us more that we can achieve in gambling.
maybe because of what op is insisting , that Only Atomic wallet is available? Binance exchange is when you are staking for trading.

You are right, that was pretty ignorant from me. But yet, I feel there are better options than staking crypto. Although, right now we are in bull market so staking is probably alright, but otherwise it can bite back. For example, one of my friend, staked dot in last 2021 bull market, dot is significantly down compared to when he staked.

Also, atomic wallet was hacked recently, it's not a safe option to hold your funds.
