If a gambler can manage his money, and he knows how to use the money, I think he can prevent the loss of the money.
When you don't want to lose in a big amount, limited money will be a solution, so you still have the money in your pocket.
But you will still spend the money if you cannot control yourself and you could only see the money will vanish from your pocket.
Yes, I agree that we don't have to stay close to gambling if we cannot control ourselves and cannot manage the money.
This is what I always tell my friends that never consider gambling easy Or don’t take it underestimated as even bug and professional gamers could lose. They will have to gamble properly and never have patience and control your emotions. Gamble skilfully chooses a good game, lose and profit keep in your mind at some time.
We need to remind them many times so they can prevent themselves to become addicted.
We don't want to see they will end up addicted to gambling.
That will be too serious to solve the problem if they become addicting.
Maybe we can try to teach them about controlling the emotions while we still control our emotion too so that will help them to prevent the big loss.
But it's not easy to tell them because some of them will say that yeah, I can control myself while I gamble.
I heard that too from my friends and I still remind them no matter if they say that.
Addiction itself is so damaging no matter what your addiction is all about and if it is something related to gambling, I have seen many settled people getting ruined simply by this one game. People have been seen coming on roads because they had addictions of gambling. I am awfully in favor of teaching people about controlling their emotions.

I like to experience it but I don't want that kind of regular scenario because I am an online gambler myself.
Playing in a crowded casino gives a lot of fun but in terms of chances of winning, I will not expect anymore as I cannot concentrate with that big crowd, if I am lucky maybe I can win but my purpose to play is to have fun only, it's good to do it with friends, I just have to make sure I only bring what I can afford to lose.
Most of the gamblers are of view that they do gambling for fun but at times, they do become serious when there are huge bets. Usually these days, people do online gambling for money and go to casinos for fun as you stated that. Casinos have dancers, music and much more for the entertainment of gamblers. So it is good to visit it for some exciting new experiences.
103  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do You Compare Your Trading ideas with others ? on: October 09, 2019, 06:38:24 PM
Comparing trades is not a bad idea, if you do it to learn, from mistakes, for how to improve, or even to simply yearn for something better. However, comparing can also be destructive if done in such a way that breeds envy and greed.

Remember that the grass will always be greener on the other side, the secret to success and happiness is being content with what you have.
We need to understand this concept that if we trade as a team, we have many minds working for same goal and if one domain is by chance missed by one person, others are there to cover it. I have seen many traders working together because of this very reason. Moreover sharing knowledge helps you in learning more.
104  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Money is Dirty Money on: October 08, 2019, 07:53:18 PM
Why are we always debating this topic. In general, everyone has the right to their opinions on the money they get from gambling or promoting gambling sites. If it's personally wrong and it's dirty money, then leave it and stay away from gambling and find a better way. So here, every opinion is kept and we are good and have the right to do it, then do it.
everyone is free to argue and this topic is a form of freedom, not to argue but only to discuss and it is good to share each person's perspective on a topic of conversation. if you don't like this topic either, that's fine.
Indeed, all of us are enjoy the freedom of speech here and discuss our matters in a friendly manner. The reason why such topics are repeated is simple because they are important and can highly effect life of those who deal in such things. It is good to be of help to someone who is committing a miserable mistake or intends to do so. Would not it be satisfying to save a life from getting destroyed.
105  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The Things That Comes Into Your Mind When Winning... on: October 08, 2019, 07:03:32 PM
I have been mostly betting on horse racing.to find winners i have been working like about two three hours searching statistic comparing trying to find horse with best chances in that particular condition.In UK horse racing weather what is changing fast time time play important role
When i won i felt incredible satisfaction.For sure betting can be addictive but win is bringing a lot of positive emotions 
Many millionaires went bankrupt from betting on horse racing so its not going to be the most successful sport to bet anyone if the money making is their intention and also want to mention that it is highly manipulated game so don't give a life saving amount into it as a bet amount.
If you ask me, I don't even think betting of any type can make a person successful and financially stable. Gambling of all sorts can just bring harm in all ways. It destroys money, relations, health and everything. If this was not the case, then Bill Gates and Steve Jobs would have rather gone to casinos r we would have gamblers as the richest people instead of such hard workers. You can never make big achievements without sacrifices and endless efforts.
106  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A cryptocurrency entirely dedicated to GAMBLING? on: October 08, 2019, 06:00:49 PM
for gambling, I think altcoin is better because coins are cheaper and also have a very small fee compared to BTC. Gambling profit results using altcoin are exchanged for BTC, this I do as the final thing after gambling.
Since you are calculating about fees then altcoin is better rather than btc to avoid high transaction fees. There is also multiple gambling sites who are accepting different Altcoins for gambling. So it's become bit easier to play with altcoin as well. But there is fear of dump when you are playing with alts. Because if your alts dump hugely then you will get nothing even you are winner on the gambling. So obviously you have to choose potential alt coin which is not much volatilities. Then most likely you will be gainer from both sides.
Being honest, even if altcoins are a lot cheaper than bitcoin but still the very sound of gambling with them or any type of asset is disturbing. Why would anyone waste even a single penny or lose it for no good reason? Gambling is not a beneficial game or profession. It is best to stay away from it. The worst thing about this is that it does not only affect the gambler but his relatives and close ones too. Besides, digital assets are too precious especially bitcoin.
107  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is it worth for me in my situation to start btc trading? on: October 07, 2019, 07:28:13 PM
Hello

I have spare $300 that my friend suggested to use to start cryptotrading, as this is the maximum amount of money affordable to lose. I have a month of free time to trade with btc. Currently I don't have income and I have three ways to set it: cryptotrading, freelancing as programmer, or full-time job. I chose to expirement and try luck with trading and freelancing, if there is no success with any for september, I will choose full-time job. If I can make about $500 per month with all of these methods or some of them, I can forget about job for a while, which is highly preferrable.

So my questions are:
  • Can I learn and do trading for month to make at least some money(around $100-$250), while doing freelance programming? I can arrange 3-5 hours for each activity per day.
  • Should I start trading on OTC exchange or regular exchange? I tried bisq to sell btc, but it seems like there you can do it with rather huge amounts of money I can't afford to make offer with. This is because of security deposit of 50% of trade amount. Maximum offer amount I can make is 150$ whereas there are more offers which range $100-$1000. They also seem more profitable for btc buyers due to less interest, than that I chose. After scrolling thorugh bitcointalk, my only options left for OTC are localbitcoins and paxful. And I don't really like any of these because of shitty customer support on both. Moreover LBC nowadays has attitude to KYC everyone, I don't like it because I would keep my personal information than send it to someone

Yes, you can confidently go ahead with trading investing $300. I did start with exactly $300. My advice would be, dont rush for profits. Have patience. Select minimum 5 best coins you wish to trade. Analyse the coins  before choosing them to be in your portfolio. Keep shifting from one coin to other coin based on values.
$300 is fairly enough money to start trading. I would suggest to go for bitcoin because it is the best one when comes to gaining profit out of investment but if that feels a bit difficult then it is better to go with promising altcoin and ultimately trade in bitcoin. The reason behind this is simple, only bitcoin has produced millionaire so far. People have improved their financial status by trading this cryptocurrency.
108  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do You Compare Your Trading ideas with others ? on: October 07, 2019, 06:32:52 PM
No, i am not..i dont want to compairing my self to others just to make any competitions about of trading. And this is not a good way being a trader, coz when you have it you must learn by your own self and learn everything about of your mistakes, and to plan of your techniques and strategies on how to earn.

I think it is good that we compare our ideas with other not for the sake of competition but for the sake of getting more knowledge and improving ourselves. When you see the trading idea of other people, you will learn more and maybe apply that in your idea too.
Right if we will share our knowledge so we will gain more knowledge it will increase our abilities and skills. Sharing your trading ideas with other means you are trying to know what other people are doing. It gives more ideas and we learn better ways of trading. In trading I think no knowledge is enough you will always have to keep learning.
Indeed. I think you have all heard the quote "No man is an Island" and that is the best scenario I can think of. Knowledge discovers by ours is not enough, we should get knowledge from others because there are things that we still we don't know and so we also share our knowledge since this would be a great help from them too. Sharing our ideas is one of the most important things you can also trade in this industry.
I hold the same opinion in this regard. Two brains are better than one. Moreover, an experience person will always stay ahead of a noob even if the newcomer holds more theoretical knowledge. It is best for us to learn from others’ experience. Especially when someone is dealing in the digital market and in it too bitcoin is his asset, he can progress quickly and safely by taking benefit advantage the experts and old traders.
109  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Buy now or wait for Bitcoin? on: October 07, 2019, 05:48:19 PM
I think it is good to buy Bitcoin now because its actual price is affordable and it is expected that its price will increase highly during the coming months and years. Maybe it is not really profitable to buy now if you are looking for a fast profit, because the price will take a longer time to reach high levels again.
Indeed, what time can be the best to invest an expensive coin other than its dip. All of us know that bitcoin is going through a downfall at the moment and it is destined to gain value before 2020 because this has been the trend in past years. Even if does not skyrocket by the end of this year, bitcoin has been predicted to even touch 50k dollars in near future and that is going to happen one day, not far away.
110  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading chat on: October 06, 2019, 08:04:06 PM
Until now I never joined any trading chat, because I am the type of person who doesn't easily believe what people say, I am more confident in myself. I believe that in trading you better learn everything by yourself without hearing the opinions of others.
Ok, but if you are good enough, then share your own ideas on market movements and people will appreciate it and your reputation will grow. Nobody is making you to listen other people, but why don't you share own ideas and go networking?
It is good to have healthy discussion with others because that way a person comes to know many things and discovers how others look at something. Two minds are always better than a single one and there is always one more thing to learn. Like you said, it is a give and take community. You share knowledge, experiences, ideas and opinions, and these all help in becoming a good investor, especially in bitcoin market.
111  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Where to invest my $1300 USD? on: October 06, 2019, 06:50:19 PM
Don't ask people to where you should invest your OWN money. It's your money and you should not blame other people for your mistakes in cryptocurrency. So the best thing to do is to invest your money at your own risk on what coin you want to take risk upon.

Exactly, it is not the right way to ask the community because they will share the information according to the experience they have and it might work for you or not nobody doesn't know. So you should always do research your own coins otherwise, it will hurt you a lot in the market if you follow others.

Asking the community is okay, as long as you don't make a lost decision, investing has a lot to learn but when we do it ourselves, we must be prepared with all the risks because choosing a coin is now easy if you already know the analysis.
Learning from others and doing some research is the right way. Ultimately the owner has to take the decision. Community has always been help. I would also suggest to post the plan of investing money and see what other’s think about it. There are many traders here full of knowledge and experience needed to be successful in this market as a newbie. As a beginner, it is better to invest 70 percent into bitcoin and rest into ethereum or some other promising coin.
112  Economy / Economics / Re: Crimes involving crypto have risen on: October 06, 2019, 06:11:18 PM
"Nearly 2.7 trillion won ($2.3 billion) have been lost to crimes involving cryptocurrency in the last two years, according to South Korean government data."

where do you see the improvements being made against crypto criminal activity. this can really hurt the price for traders/investors if conditions don't improve.

The crime increases based on the number of people. therefore, the more people you have the more crimes you gonna get. Also, that same principle applies to bitcoin. thus, the more people join the bitcoin and crypto community, the more crimes you gonna get. I'm not surprised by the stat at all.

Although the number of crypto users is increasing, I think the number of crimes associated with it will decline in the future. Not all criminals realize that they can be traced more easily when using crypto, but with more and more criminal cases unfolded, it will become more obvious, and they will switch back to fiat.

But I agree with you that currently the stats only demonstrate that the number of people using crypto is increasing.
The reason why people rather criminals like to deal in crypto currencies or bitcoin is that they are anonymous which means it is not possible or too difficult to trace out the transactions made with crypto coins. Also, we cannot blame digital currencies for this because there are many people who use technology in good way and then there are those who commit awful acts of theft and robbery. Bitcoin and altcoins are the future.
113  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: is Sportsbet.io safe to bet? on: October 04, 2019, 06:52:22 PM
sportsbet.io is 100% safe, it’s the most well know sports bookie in crypto space. I’ve been betting with them for over a year now & never had any issues. Withdrawals are fast & easy, no problems ever.
Yes as much as i know it had good number of users in last few years and  still people use it around the world. I use it without any problem. There are alot of good and famous games in it. We should choose the good coins that is well known in market. I like to gamble with them but need to start with small amount at beginning.
114  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bull or Bear season for crypto? on: October 03, 2019, 06:24:01 PM
The crypto market for a period seemed to be on a bear market,and for some reason much later prices started increasing again.What can be said about the market at this period,are we on a bull or bear?
In a long term perceptive using the monthly chart as a point of reference  the price of cryptos is bearish while on a short term its bullish i.e good for experienced day trader, hence the market is bearish now (short term ), however the price might have reached a support at $8100 thus indicating a possible bearish runs as we approached the last quarter of the year thus there is the tendency that the prices of cryptos will be bullish before the end of the year.
Not only monthly but we should make price chart observations on daily basses better not to announce any price for day traders with out any proper knowledge. For day traders it need to make your own analysis than to trust any other persons skills. I know after long run bearish now it has stated to become bullish but to see it completely bullish we will have to hold.
115  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How do you use crypto? on: October 02, 2019, 09:08:04 PM
What can we do to cryptocurrency?
Of course we will hold and wait for the right time to trade.
We buy and hold to earn. we use to buy another cryptocurrency or participate in an ICO or IEO.
But if we have a wallet like in my country "COINS.PH" we can use them to pay bills, to send money to friend and relatives.

this is s simple but effective strategy becuase i did this all the time i do hold a coin and making sure that this is a long term or a short term so whenever what coin im holding im just going to wait for it for the right moment and also checking them if it time to sell them or still hold them
That's really good to know which coin we should hold and how much we will Have to be patient. Time will be needed to again rise and give you profit. Waiting is only key to over Come your lose. I use crypto only to invest my money and to gain profit after selling it at double price. At time of need I use my money to buy things of my daily needs.
116  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Hold on: October 02, 2019, 07:42:16 PM
Hello, I´m 13 and I´m very interested in Bitcoin, because of this I buy BTC. Actually, I've been studying BTC for over a year to invest. Back to the subject, I buy BTC for 9.200 dollars, and I would like to know if you think it´s a good ideia hold btc until it reaches 20.000. Anyway, for now i´m going to wait btc until it reaches in 20.000 for me to sell. What do you think about my opinion? Wink


You're one lucky 13 years old imagine you have that amount at that age and you have that thinking at a very young age, when every boy at your age are all playing mobile legend and doing other stuff online, while you are planning to buy and HODL Bitcoin, if you are comfortable at your investment then you can proceed.
When you reach 18 years old and you're still holding that Bitcoin I'm pretty sure you will be rich at 18.




Your suggestion is waste of time, Because he is not active in last three months. I think he just try the Bitcointalk then sleep again. So we must avoid these kind of spam threads because already many spam threads are available in this forum. Bitcoin is a forever trusted Cryptocurrency so everyone believe the long term investment.

They just want to discuss here about the price of bitcoin and long-term investment, yes there are lots of threads like this that not everyone reads,

Bitcoin is the future so don't hesitate to invest.
Yeah bitcoin is future it has good potential to increase. We can invest and hold without any fear.  Holding is the best options now a day,  Price is going to increase certainly so we should keep holding its going to be safe investing and holding. I have trust for bitcoin i keep investing my money without any fear, holding  bitcoin just easy way to gain profit.
117  Economy / Economics / Re: Which currency will dominate the crypto market? Please vote! on: October 01, 2019, 07:32:20 PM
For now and forever I think bitcoin still dominates the crypto market and we must remember the existence of cryptocurrency because it started with the existence of bitcoin, and until now no one can change its position as the king of crypto and always dominates the market.
and besides bitcoin in Altcoin there is also Ethereum and Litecoin which still dominates and the others only compete but it is possible that in the future there will be a change or replace it.
No one can put doubt on it that bitcoin has this ability to make the value of regular market higher. We can see when the price of bitcoin rises it makes entire market even higher. Bitcoin is no one coin it’s the mother of all coins it has all potentially to make price high or low we should keep buying bitcoin to our maximum extent.
118  Economy / Economics / Re: World economy, what do you think? on: October 01, 2019, 07:06:06 PM
How much, in your opinion, has international relations influenced the world economy and what do you think about it?

Of course, international relations between countries would help contribute to the global economy.
The world economy will only grow bigger through bilateral trades between countries around the world.
This already has begun now in countries people are trading and investing with each other. People knows, it’s beneficial for the economical state of the countries to trade from one country to other. We should promote digital system to make our economical state, people should work to get benefit from this by investing and trading as much as possible.
119  Economy / Economics / Re: How to prevent fraud? on: October 01, 2019, 06:18:59 PM
Since i joined in bitcointalk, im seeing scams. Im a victim of few of them.
Its pretty Hard have 100% about a project.

You can try avoid This, but nothing is garanted.
Yeah that is true there are alot of scamming project which are being use by mean people but we should only try to avoid them and stay careful about investing our money. Bitcointalk.org has given us so much about security I feel safe about those project which belongs to this forum. I am sure a few years later Every thing will be solved as now forum is working on this issue.
120  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why its hard to attract investors on: September 29, 2019, 09:00:11 PM
Before investors are everywhere in crypto currency specially mid 2017 but everything change
Ico's started to boom in the internet, you can choose a lot
of ico that you like, but then started to change , there are ico that are scam, running with investors money in a snap, lending platforms also can be seen, the same happens they suddenly disappear
we have already have a very good market if there are no scammers
they change everything, now investors are so hesitant whenever there is a new coin that are good but they opted out because they think its a scam, I think we should find a way to lessen or better eliminate them for good.
Need some time to build trust in investors. For scam projects ICO was almost died and IEO was wide-awake. Now only legit project is getting success. Cryptocurrency will attract investors and rise, when huge legit coin will available.
Yes but don’t you think we live in modern age where crypto has become need of the day so investors get attract by themselves, we are only need to guide new investors and tell them about the ways of making money from crypto investments,  I am sure no better coin could every come in crypto which can beat bitcoin in future, when people will see investors making profit so they will get attract by themselves
