101  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How about them WAVES!!?? on: September 03, 2017, 02:54:07 PM
Waves is one of the better projects available in the market right now. It is still a cheap altcoin and i personally believe that it is undervalued. I think that it will replace ethereum in coming years and you can expect high returns from your investment.
Yup, i am also thinking in the same way, so I bought some coins and saved in my wallet. I will not use that coin to trade I keep for long term investment. I am also hoping that this coin will replace ETH in the future and very soon this coin will take off and the price will start to increase. Many new projects are developing based on this projects, so they will make this coin to become famous in short time.
102  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How many people left their full-time employment to go into Bitcoin? on: September 03, 2017, 02:28:18 AM
I think their are a lot of people who left job for to focus on Bitcoin. It's too risky to engage in such industry that is volatile. Maybe there are some who succeeded and some do fail and go back to their regular job. Bitcoin is not a bad investment but be sure to have a lot back up plans. Once the industry  collapse.
Yes ... we need a backup plan if bitcoin is worthless. If we don't have a steady job,
we can build a business from profit bitcoin.
Those who left job years back and made a number of bitcoins till today then their decision should be right. Becasue before earning bitcoins is very easy and now the rate of the bitcoin is very high. But now if anybody takes this decision it is wrong. We need a backup support otherwise we can not survive just based on this Bitcoin.
103  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know whether its your lucky day? on: September 03, 2017, 02:23:15 AM
In my opinion, it's not about weather it's your lucky day or not, it's about knowing when to make you make your smart move that makes you win. Random gambling could make you win some money, but usually you loose. They key to win is striking at the perfect moment.

Exactly, but that has to do with some inner instincts that drives us into placing certain bets that in a normal day we wouldn't. This is not a feeling we often get but if we does then it sure is our lucky day.
I ask my guts first before really attempting any task. Our intuitions do keep us safe from many troubles. If we are out of luck, we have a bad feeling about it hours ago. Again, not everyone has a sharp six sense and neither many of us rely on it. I consider myself a lucky one...
That's a gift if you have that, unfortunately for me I really don't have anything that I feel to know if I am lucky or not, maybe because I am a regular gambler and every day is just an ordinary day for me. I wish if we are lucky it would last for the whole day, but the thing is it does not because the more you push your luck the more you through it away and most of the time you end up losing.
Yes, even a lucky day gets ended in loss based on the greedy mind one has got. If the winning happens by the starting of the day or by the initial game, we need to be clear on our stand whether to spend on consecutive games or can just be safe making it the lucky day for a better winning later than just spending on the same day and ending in loss.
you just need to survive and be wise to use your lucky day.

actually the sign of your lucky day could be found when you think you have too much win or too frequently get a win , that time you should really realize that the lucky streaks could ended up anytime , so prefer to stop while in the lucky times , or just having same bad day ended up with lost.
After finishing our play or while playing only we can guess that t is our lucky day or not by seeing or results. if we make more wins, then it is our lucky day or else no. But you are right we have the capacity to change our lucky day to bad day because of greediness. So stop your play when you start to lose your games after winning big amount on the same day.
104  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The benefits of gambling online with Bitcoin on: September 03, 2017, 02:17:14 AM
I think It's better to make deposits to your favorite online casino or sportsbook with bitcoin rather than traditional methods like cash and credit cards, based on the reasons below.   
It was true earlier,the transaction fees are not small now and it is not instant access to funds now as it takes some time for the transaction to get through ,i am not a fan of the bonus system in almost all of the gambling sites and usually i do ignore those,anonymity as a gambler is the biggest advantage i see with bitcoin until the transaction gets cheaper and faster.

I don't think Bitcoin transactions are not going to fast and cheaper anytime soon. If you want fast and cheaper then you need to choose altcoins to gamble. Currently, bitcoin transactions are slow and their fees are very high particularly if you plan to do a small amount transactions. As you said, the best feature is anonymity gambling makes to choose bitcoins over fiat gambling.

All bitcoins transactions are improved now we are receiving our bitcoins very quickly after paying a high transaction fee. Yes now the fee rate is increased for the small transaction we need to pay higher amount fee. If you choose a regular or small amount fee, it will take a number of days to receive your bitcoins in your wallet. But playing gambling with bitcoins is far better than playing with fiat currency.
105  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When to leave the game? on: September 03, 2017, 02:08:44 AM
Then when you really see that you have very little money left, and you need at least some profit, and not go away with empty pockets. Winning combinations last not for long, but the losing ones are very often and continuously.

I didn't understand what you're trying to say above.

You mean to say that one should stop when they left some money in their bankroll then stop gambling and take that small amount?

Gambling games are fun games so don't ever load amount which you can't afford to lose and after you load then don't worry about profit and loss instead try to enjoy your free time and games.

I think what he is trying to say means while playing gambling after losing some coins you will have only a few coins in your bankroll. So don't waste that coins again in playing in gambling. Stop your play and save at least few coins in your bankroll don't go home with an empty hand. This is what i understood, but i am not sure.

Yes gambling games are made for to enjoy your free time. Don't get hurt by losing more money in gambling. So play only how much you can afford.
106  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The gambler destroyed on: September 03, 2017, 02:00:22 AM
I know, what results what results do today, tomorrow are different. I am aware of this, but my goal is that at the end of each day I will make a profit (whichever it is) or, at worst, lower my account balance by a maximum of 10% (which I will recover the next day anyway).

What if next day also you lose 10% and if that continues for next few days?

You again making the biggest mistake which we shouldn't do in gambling like trying to recover your gambling losses from gambling. Many people already told you that these strategies will not give you profits continuously so always gamble carefully.

Chasing gambling losses is the biggest mistake many gamblers will do. This is really a very dangerous and it will make you addicted to gambling very quickly. So never chase your lost and don't make any fixed target. If you start to play to win some fixed amount this will not work in gambling. When you play randomly that time only you can make some profit in gambling.
107  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Waves wallet..? on: August 31, 2017, 04:17:31 PM
Type Wavesliteapp in google open the link, and it will ask to add extension add it. After that, you can launch that app the new window will open it is waves official wallet. Register your account and save the key. After entering inside the wallet take backup for your account, private key and other things. Here you can lease your waves and have the trading option. I am using this wallet and not faced any issues till today.
108  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Trading vs Gambling on: August 31, 2017, 04:10:36 PM
Trading is different from gambling trading is based on 50% skills and 50% luck and gambling is purely based on luck.if you talk about profit then gambling can make you rich overnight provided you are lucky enough and trading can make sure you have reasonable and consistent profits provided you have skills and patience.Both have their pros and cons and if i have to choose one over the other i would go for trading less risky then gambling my coins away. Tongue

beside gambling can make you rich overnight, we have high risk too and chance to losing our money if we are not lucky. but in trading, once we are loss in value when the price is down, we still have a chance to make profit in the other day. the only thing that we need in trading is patience to wait until the price is rise again.
In my opinion gambling always been a bad option for someone who want to earn money by easy means, we can say it. Trading always been a profitable business from a long time and whereas the gambling has always been a worthless game of money. You can’t lose more in trade but you can loss everything just in a moment in gambling.
Gambling is not an easy money, in some it is because the faster return of money and profit if they are lucky but in general its not. Its more on luck and good betting styles. In trading is a long term but a good source of profit to compare in gambling.
Both way of earning doesn't seem to be an easy earning. Everything is upon the investment we make over it, as well based on the luck one holds. Both provides an increased earning, but both has the highest risk. So to be successful in trading as well gambling 50% of luck is required and 50% skills is a must.

In trading you don't need luck the only thing you need is skills and knowledge about the market and if you are depending only on luck to make profits in trading then there would be no difference between trading and gambling and on the other hand gambling doesn't require any skills to win as it is dependent only on luck.

Trading required skills and patience then only you can able to make a profit in trading.  Yes if you depend on your luck then there is no difference b/w trading and gambling. But sometimes if we want to make short time profit in trading we need luck. You said gambling does not require skills, I agree that gambling depends on luck but skill based games require knowledge to win our bet.
109  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin in Asia on: August 30, 2017, 05:38:29 PM
How common is Bitcoin in Asia? Just want to know Huh
Bitcoin is somehow famous already on this side of the world on which you do know that Japan is a part or considered on part of Asian countries which you do know that they decide to legalize and accept bitcoin and also in my place bitcoin is gradually getting popularity as of now which is really good on the moving progress of awareness of bitcoins existence.
There is a lot of developing countries on asia that is likely to adapt on different technologies, techniques on other established countries like America and United kingdom this is happened to be the center of transaction of crypto-currency that is a good thing because if a specific country set to adapt the system of Bitcoin it could result on total development of Bitcoin because it could be wide know by all countries.
Yes the major contribution to Bitcoin is China, this will come under Asian countries. And we see a lot of miners also from this country. I heard that Indian governament is also thinking to make this Bitcoin legalised in their country. If it happens then, it will affect the Bitcoin price. Because India is the 2nd largest population in Asia.
110  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If no one spends bitcoin what might happen? on: August 30, 2017, 05:30:24 PM
one thing is certain, bitcoin prices will go down.


not true, if no one can buy because none is spending(i'm assuming the wider definition here and not spending as a purchasing only, but as a trading too), the value will likely remain there, not going to be dumped for sure

but it can increase without the possibility for buyers to buy new coins, in fact if all exchange were to be stopped by the governments, the value would not appreciate anymore so quickly

you then need to do private trading and report on a new decentralized(like a big forum) service the possible new value
I guess it's possible. if no one else who spends bitcoin, that is to say, bitcoin is not used anymore, and in my experience, coins were never used, the price will go down, or even disappear. if bitcoin never in spending, meaning that bitcoin is never used, so it's likely the biggest price would probably fall.
As stated based on the usage the value will go down. If this happens, soon the users too will stop using it which eventually stops the acceptance of bitcoin from stores. I believe that trading people were the one who gets affected much than common users.

It will be nonsense if we will just store it and waits for it value to goes up before we use it,how will it grow of we would just stock our btc in our wallet or doesn't do anything about like investing or trading, it is like doing business we just need a capital then a profit to run the business and we should get some outcome like does it earn or not. If btc will not be use then why its created anyway it will soon be gone if we doesn't do any btc related activities.
I agree with you. If no one spend bitcoin then it will be just nonsense for the investor or holders because there would be no supply that will circulate in the market and that will be bad because the price of bitcoin is just depending on the demand of the market so if there is no supply then there will no demand and if there is no demand then the price will decrease and that will be a worst case scenario if we will not spend our bitcoins.
Yeah it will become nonsense if we will just save or not spend it. You're probably correct when you say there is no effect to the demand in the market if we will store it.
Holding bitcoins for a long time will give good profit. but everyone follows this method then there is no use to hold it for a long time. When there is a demand and supply will happen, then we will see variation in price. If no spend means nothing will happen and it will affect the price of the bitcoin.
111  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: November real test for Bitcoin ? on: August 30, 2017, 05:25:23 PM
Hello Guys , i am planning to invest in Bitcoin but after doing some research i found that some experts are suggesting that we can see more fluctuation in the month of November as Bitcoin can have another hardfork somewhere around in Novemeber when Block 494,784 gets mined. Segwit2x Team plans to enable the Bitcoin's miners to run new software at block 494,784 and if its enacted it can create another hardofork for Bitcoin. So what does this means for us investors , worst fluctuation that we saw in the month of July or the prices will only fall to the current level ?

Let me know your thoughts.



Dont be afraid to buy bitcoin, although like what happened in August 1 they predicted that bitcoin's price will dump so others tends to panic selling their bitcoin but what happen after the fork? bitcoin's price increase dramatically. So no one can say what will happen if the fork happen again maybe another pump or maybe dump this time. But it is good to have bitcoin as early as possible because in the future bitcoin will pump as high as it can

This hard fork gives us one more opportunity to buy bitcoins for a low price. When it happened in August the price dump first later, it increased. So the same will repeat in November. My opinion is now the price is very high so wait for next month and sell your coins hold your fiat currency. When the price dumps buy again Bitcoin, and after hard fork, your bitcoins will give you big profit.
112  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin fees are too low! on: August 30, 2017, 05:19:27 PM
Have a heart for the poor miners.

edit 20sat/b is way too low.

they are 420 satoshis/byte, where do you get 20 sat from? they are still very high, but it's because segwit is not used i think, otherwise should be lower

transactions with fees as low as 20 satoshi/Byte are being confirmed actually.
as a matter of fact i was going to say the same thing but checked a couple of last blocks that were mined (mostly the BitFury blocks though) had many transactions with such low fees.
they surely will take a longer time though since the mempool is filled with transactions with much higher fees according to bitcoinfees.21.co

I never paid 420sat/b. Only exception is on 20th of April.
I always pay 20-30sat/b and I don't mind if it takes 10-60 Minutes.
Yesterday I had a transaction, I've started from a mobile wallet (Mycellium). In that mobile wallet, I cannot set a fee, only choose from a drop down list if I want priority, normal, economy or lowest...
I've choosen the lowest, and it has set 285 sat/B fee for the transaction. It turned out that it was a higher fee at that time because I had 3 or 4 confirmations in half an hour time and in 2-3 hours I got fully confirmed. That time mempool was full with under 20 sat/B transactions.
The confirmation speed is increased, some times if you pay a normal fee you will receive your bitcoins within few hours. But sometimes it will take a long time it maybe 2 or 3 days. I tried with 20k - 60k. But really confused how the blockchain will work. I tried to withdraw my coins with paying 60k it took exactly 24 hours to deliver my bitcoins the exact reason I don't know.   
113  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Your first betting? on: August 30, 2017, 05:10:08 PM
Some of us have known gambling since childhood. well, I want to ask you what your first bet is .... if I bet with my friend when playing snake ladder who will be the winner at that time. that's the way make me knowned about gambling.

When I was in high school year 2008 if I can recall it right. Me and my friends had some good time for playing computer games like counter strike, battle realms and other oldies but goodies multiplayer games. And just to enjoy the game we are putting some bet on every match. Each game are giving everyone of us a tense.

My first betting happened in my school days. In that time I use to play cricket lot. So in weekends we all friends will make teams and play the game. That time we will bet some amount and each game. It is very less money, but that time it was a big amount for us. If we won our game, we will use that money to eat some snacks and will buy new bat and bowl. Those days were really great in my life.
114  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you use analysis when play gambling? on: August 30, 2017, 04:41:05 PM
In sport gambling i do analysis, although sometimes lose. However, when compared to dice gambling, my analysis hasn't effect either. Of those two things, i am more interested in gambling dice as it's easier and faster to gain profit.
The dice game is easier to play but you said you gain profit how it is possible for you. even I played this game, but I did not make any profit in this game. Actually in this game making profit is a big task. Why because it is not a skilled game just roll and wait. If our fate is good, we will make a profit. So you are making a profit means you are the lucky guy in gambling. Any particular strategy you use to win money or a random game. If any strategies are there let us know we will also try and make money.
115  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you set up limits for yourself? on: August 29, 2017, 04:55:25 PM
Gambling can be for fun, but it have a dark side because if the man get addicted to it they will lose not only money but also the other people that get affected because of him. So it is better to have limitations before planning to gamble. When I’m going to gamble I will limit myself on how much I will spend but I should follow the limit I set before anything else because if you don’t follow it, it is useless.

Well the side effects of gambling are way beyond our imagination. It actually does not effects mentally and physically the addicted person but also to all others who are with him/her. They cannot see them like this the way addicted person behaves. They have sleepless night due to such a huge change in their behavior. This effects everybody surrounded by them .

So always ensure you are within your limits to avoid all such things in your life.


We have to make a limit in our every decision and work. if it exists, it will cause us. Like that in gambling also we have to make one limit, and we must stick to that limit. Then only you will get to know whether gambling is profitable or not. If you not make any limit and play blindly then you always get the only loss. Because we stop our play when we don't have money to play.
116  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Giving up gambling is not easy on: August 29, 2017, 04:48:41 PM
Giving up with gambling need lot courage and hard work but its not impossible . We can avoid gambling slowly but we cant stop it immediately

   It is important to get help as soon as possible, like with all addictions! There are ways for helping before getting to the point of no return,
ways that works better if they are started on time. Find something to replace your gambling activity is one of the first and best ways in my
opinion, taking a break from gambling will give every person more free time and that time should be spent in some activity that can move
thoughts from gambling.
   Giving up gambling is not easy, cause of that I have my strategy about it and I am very careful about it. Many times I wanted to rise bets,
to play more casino games, but I did not do any of that. I gamble in the same way like I gambled in the start.
After all following these methods we need the dedication to stop any addiction. I saw some people after quitting gambling again they started that means they will not control their feelings. When we think to play gambling means when we get free time. So if you don't get any free time means you will not try once again. Just to avoid a couple of months then automatically you will stop and not enter this gambling again. 
117  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why do you even gamble? on: August 29, 2017, 04:41:30 PM
I gamble quite rare and only when there's some big games I gamble. I am also not addictive and can control my self.

Why do people gamble, because they want to earn a lot of money in an easy way, so they do an instant way, but the result doesn't match the desires and sometimes they continue to impose play although the results are very bad.
Yes people like easy and instant money, so they will choose this gambling. But this gambling also impress people to make them win in beginning days after that when people taste easy money. The gambling will start to show its real future. So if you can afford your loss then try gambling. just to check your luck and to see how the gambling will works don come it will kill your personal life make you frustrated.
118  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Btc = you make me tired on: August 29, 2017, 04:27:20 PM
There are so many things that happened to bitcoin this year, although there is so many issue, bitcoin still stay strong on the top, sometimes need extra improvement to become the best coin, so it is your lost if you leave bitcoin and change to eth
It will be much better to still have bot and some other alts too. Crypto currency future is quite broad and will have lots of innovation and progress. If we hold some no. It can increase more in the future.
It is difficult to understand how the crypto currency will give us the opportunity to make money. Sometimes it will make us stop everything and stay away from this digital currency. But the real fact is there is big money in a crypto currency we have to utilize it properly. Some people are making a huge profit with doing this digital currency trading. If you are not interested in spending time then best buy some coins and keep it with you, it will give you profit in future.
119  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do you see trading as fun and games? on: August 29, 2017, 04:18:57 PM
Yes I see it as game and discipline so it has to be taken serious if you wish to be on winning side. The most important factor that should be considered seriously is money management ... avoid emotions ... place your limits how much you can loose each days and dont break ... (place TP/SL) on each and every position ... Kiss
Yes trading involved discipline and I treat it as a serious matter because it involved money. I consider it as fun once experiencing of winning and earning profit. Yes there is need to avoid self emotions in order not to lose money during trading.
We should learn to control ourselves when there is dump for us to have patience that it can pump soon, same with when it pumps have a research if it does still more chance to pump. It is hard to trade especially when we are aiming for more,which all of us want to earn a lot as much as possible.
It is hard to guess where the price will go and come down. so when ever the price pumping you fix one amount and if it reached you can trade your coin. don't wait for more profit if you wait some more time then definitely you will miss the right time to do trading. This is called greedy. Don't become greedy just do it as a business. Percentage profit is always helping to make a good amount in trading.

It may have reached $ 5000 this week. But let's look at Bitcoins is flactuating and no one knows I'm going to drop it and raise it. Just what matters today is that you get bitcoins because it will be worth millions of dollars. In the future and if it will happen we will all be wealthy and will be get out on the poverty. So just keep up.Until this has become million
Yes today $4500 margin crossed so now next stop is around $4900+. Till that it will grow so fast within few days we see this price. Or else today night only we see this price. Because just in a few hours more than $300 increase. So anything can happen in a couple of days. I think this weekend or next week the price will hit $5000. I am waiting for this target.
