  • Any human is three times more likely to find $100 on the street (1 in 333,062,500) than they are to meet their doppelgänger (1 in 1,000,000,000,000)
  • There are equal chances of getting struck by lightning once and becoming a millionaire (1 in 500,000)
  • Americans have a 1 in 209,000,000 chance of becoming the President of the United States; in fact, humans are more likely to win the lottery (1 in 45,057,474)

The team at www.cardschat. com have conducted extensive research into the odds of various things happening in people’s everyday lives, from being hit by a bus and being struck by lightning, not just once but twice, to becoming the President of the United States and even meeting their doppelgänger.

Although many have a fear of shark infested waters and being attacked by a shark while they’re on vacation, the chances of this are less likely than having a toilet related accident, with the odds of an accident on the toilet being 1 in 10,000 while the odds of dying in a shark attack stand at 1 in 3,748,067.

Some of the least likely odds to happen in a lifetime were found to be:

  • Meeting your doppelgänger – 1 in 1,000,000,000,000
  • Finding $100 on the street – 1 in 333,062,500
  • Becoming the President of the United States – 1 in 209,000,000
  • Winning the lottery – 1 in 45,057,474
  • Dying in a tornado – 1 in 13,000,000
  • Odds of going blind after laser eye surgery – 1 in 5,000,000
  • That a left-hand person will die while using a right-handed appliance – 1 in 4,400,000
  • Dying in a shark attack – 1 in 3,748,067
  • Getting hit by a bus – 1 in 2,700,000
  • Being dealt a Royal Flush in poker – 1 in 2,598,960

Many pin their hopes on meeting their doppelganger at some point in their life, however they’re more likely to be killed by a stray firework (1 in 340,733) or become a movie star (1 in 110,500).

Some of the more surprising odds that have a good chance of occurring include:

  • Dying on your birthday – 1 in 365
  • Being born with extra fingers and toes – 1 in 500
  • Becoming an astronaut – 1 in 1,525

When it comes to naming children, Emma is a very common girls name, in fact it’s proven that there’s a 1 in 107 chance of being called Emma, whereas boys have a 1 in 179 chance of being called Jacob.

Debi O’Neill, spokesperson for www.cardschat. com, commented:

“There are some definite surprises that have come about from our research; we’re shocked to find out you actually have a better chance of becoming an astronaut than becoming a movie star or even winning an Oscar. Who knew? It’s a shame that the odds are so low on coming across your doppelgänger in your lifetime, but when you consider there are 195 countries in the world and roughly 7.674 billion people on the planet, maybe we should just be happy to find ‘the one’ at some point in our lives over meeting someone who looks just like us.”

SCCG Management, a global advisory firm serving the gaming industry, has entered into a strategic partnership with Coinspaid Solutions, a blockchain payments infrastructure provider, to support go-to-market efforts for crypto-enabled payment solutions across selected gaming markets.

Under the partnership, SCCG will support Coinspaid’s business development, strategic introductions and commercial expansion across gaming operators, platforms and technology providers. SCCG states that it works across iGaming, sports betting, tribal gaming and broader gaming technology, drawing on more than 30 years of industry experience.

Coinspaid’s infrastructure enables businesses to accept more than 20 stablecoins & other cryptocurrencies, automate conversion into 40+ fiat currencies, and manage payouts and treasury operations through a single infrastructure layer with API and plugin-based integrations. The company also states that it builds compliance into onboarding and payment flows, including AML/KYC/KYB controls, on-chain monitoring, MLRO oversight, ISO/IEC 27001 certification and independent audits.

The partnership will focus on helping licensed gaming businesses evaluate where crypto payments can improve settlement speed, expand payment optionality for cross-border audiences, and streamline payout workflows, subject to jurisdictional review, onboarding and applicable regulatory requirements in each market. Coinspaid also highlights rate lock at checkout, automatic fiat conversion and final settlement on eligible crypto payment flows.

“As gaming businesses continue to expand across markets, the demand for payment infrastructure that is both commercially effective and operationally resilient is only increasing,” said Stephen Crystal, Founder and CEO of SCCG Management. “Coinspaid Solutions brings together payments, payouts and compliance in a way that aligns with how many operators are thinking about growth today. We are pleased to support their expansion through our network across gaming and gaming technology.”

The partnership will also include coordinated business development and educational initiatives, including executive introductions, and educational content for operators and technology partners exploring blockchain payment infrastructure.
