10021  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To Gamble or To Invest? on: August 20, 2016, 07:49:50 AM
I would rather choose to invest than gambling, they are both risky but investment has less risk compare to gambling. You can make profits in the long run from it just make sure that you are in a good and trusted company. I invest my bitcoin through holding...

Thats a right decision there pal, and almost users in here would have the same  answer to yours. Investment would be the best if you are planning   for a  good long term profit because in gambling you cant guarantee your money their because almost gamblers out there   lost their money in the end. Its better to hold   your bitcoin than to gamble.
If we all know how to invest and you have enough knowledge and enough money to start investing, why not try it? Becuase for me investing is not dangerous if you just know how it works, and for sure there are many people who will also guide us with our investment that is also investor too. They can also help us and they can give us an advice. Because gambing is only relying with our luck.

Both investment and gambling have risks. Anything that we do have risks. Even when we drive our car, there is a risk. The most important thing to do is (we use the analogy of driving a car) to know how to drive carefully and defensively and your chances of getting into untoward accident is far compared to someone that is rickless driver. So, do not be rickless to investing - know how to invest and be careful along the way.
The risk is there but if you know what are the risks you will easily find ways to manage the risk. If you can manage the risk and you have analyze that you have a chance to succeed then put your investment the amount that you can afford to lose.

The Miami Heat might have actually gotten better with D.Wade's departure. They can now start a full rebuild with Hassan Whiteside as the centerpiece. Although Chris Bosh is still with them, nobody's certain whether he'll still be able to play another game in his career. They still have Goran Dragic and Justise Winslow and Josh Richardson. And also the acquisition of Derrick Williams and Willie Reed could prove to be enough for them to contend for another playoff spot. All that Pat Riley lowballing might actually be good for the franchise.
yes mate those young guns can prove that even their superstar already went out fro their line up they can build a good competitive team those younger players can now show what they really have, i hope to see them back from play off and win for the eastern finals.

I agree with Hassan Whiteside being the centerpiece of the franchise. I expect some major trade for them this coming season. They are not a championship contender with their roster now, maybe they can make playoffs but still its gonna be hard for them this season.
For sure they will not be able to reach to playoffs this season, it was due to the impressive performance of D Wade last season that's why they were able to reach in the playoffs, and without a superstar in the team who can score they will be having a hard time to even maintain a good record.

This will be a chance for some players in Miami especially the bench players and rookies to showcase their talents to become a superstar one day.
I agree, they have all the opportunity to prove themselves this time as wade has already departed to Chicago. I can see Hassan would be the main man in miami and I can see the fans loving him if he continues his monster game.
yes indeed mate rookies are more aggressive to show what they have and to create their names in nba so i guess  heat have some edge from there, good luck miami hope to see more coming from this team cavs will be waiting for you. hehehe
No chance they will reach in the finals to face the cavaliers, they are a rebuilding quite a bit as they miss wade in the line up, maybe this coming season is just an adjustment period for them until they get use of the system.
I have to respect your opinion but I have seen them play without wade last season and they can still manage to win, so I just hope all of them will step us as there is no wade anymore and they should feel as stars in a team so they will be motivated.
10023  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When gambling makes you cry. on: August 20, 2016, 07:42:52 AM
gambling never made me cry, because i have a special strategy of gambling, i have a limit for gambling, when i reach to that limit i stop gambling any more for that day, therefore i can say that gambling never made me cry.

By setting limit on your each bet you can control your money overflow though but that is not something special though because there is no special strategy in gambling. All you need yo have is some luck which can lead you to win some of your coin rather than lose it
Setting your limit is what makes you successful in gambling as most of us cries because of lack of self control in gambling, when the amount not intended in gambling will be use in gambling that is the time when we will surely cry when we lose it.
Gambling should never make you cry, if it does then you are taking it way too seriously and probably getting in a little deep.
Always try remember that gambling is just there for a little fun, your bankroll should be whatever you deposit, if you double it walk away if you lose it walk away and never deposit more to chase your losses.
why cry winning and losing it is a game play controls which are winning little profit is good playing quiet it was very important.
all games there is a risk you are in control of the game
Gambling has risks so we need to know the possible outcome of gambling is losing and winning. If we lose we need to accept that as it is part of the game but it is easy to recover from losing when we are putting at risk the amount that we can afford to lose.
10024  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: August 20, 2016, 07:36:52 AM
Money is sometimes called a drug takes you to the sky. Money is addictive. No one in the world don't stay without money of any form. If you can loot money, do you stay inactive, so gambling is addictive.

Most of the time that's the reason why gambling is addictive, sometimes we tend to think that there is an easy money there without tiring ourselves on work...  Who would not want money or easy way of getting it... It's just that gambling looks like that in the outside, but not on the inside, when you are just starting you only see the outside part of gambling and not the real "intention" of the site or its purpose, which is for the owner to earn...  Smiley
Well, if only we are good in gambling then it would be easy for us to make money even spending a little time of the day in gambling. I always try to find a good method that I can use to win consistently in gambling but every time I try my method if does not have a good outcome.
10025  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is their any safe methods to gamble? on: August 20, 2016, 07:20:05 AM
do below 50 2x times, then above 2x and then repeat.

end in good mode.

when loosing  multiply x2

So you are thinking martingale is safe method for betting, when we go for chase after losing any amount than it could lead to get busted, so that I will do disagree with you for this strategy because that is not good method, but if we are lucky than anybody can make profit with these 100 rolls too.
Martingale would work if you are lucky but still in the long run you will still lose, remember that when a game has a house edge we will still lose no matter how lucky and good we are, maybe in sports betting it would work but impossible in dice in my opinion.

I am doing sports betting now and not done the martingale strategy yet. I only bet on games that will likely win and if lose, bet again to other teams that have higher chances of winning.

I have some losing bets and have not increased my bets to next games.. Interesting, I'll try martingale in sports betting now.
I have been doing martingale in sports betting because I believe not team will lose all throughout the season, and I have not seen a good team in a basketball that has a 10 losing streak, usually the NBA rig the games to give them the win so it gives you the advantage.
10026  Economy / Services / Re: nimirum signature campaign | up to 0.025 BTC per week on: August 20, 2016, 06:56:32 AM
I see only a few wear the signature of this campaign. What has happened? The OP or the nimrium dev did not post again in this thread. 100 posts every week must be very spammy. People try to post useless spams all over the forum. Reduce it to 40. And increase payrate for lower rank members. This will improve performance.
It's not actually 100 posts a week, it is only 20 posts as per OP stated in the first page, those who can participate are those who have at least 100 post. Today is payday so members are expecting to get their pay today but as of the moment there was no update yet.
10027  Other / Off-topic / Re: 2016, The Year of Bitcoin? on: August 20, 2016, 04:44:01 AM
the current price of bitcoin is in the range of 570 USD. I think this year has not been a substantive improvement.
perhaps in 2017 in the future will increase the price of bitcoin increased.

No. Remember the yearly high as of today which is almost close to $800. That is a great improvement and people really take advantage of that price.

Also it's really annoying to sit back at below $500 as we already sit that for years. So somehow sitting above $500 today is great improvement compare to the past months.

Exactly this is the good price to hold and its far better in compare to the last year, and year is not ended yet so we can expect much higher price in next few months.
The good thing is the price is fighting to go up and I can say that the upward direction has more possibility to happen in the next few days, we might be seeing a low price now but it would not last as we will be back to normal price but expected to have increase before the end of the year.

This is very risky because there will be long reds with 50% chance along the way. But if your bankroll is big and you divide it with 10 sessions. You can just target a couple of wins like 20 wins and if you reach that, stop and if not, continue. However, if you encounter many reds and busted in 1 session, then try a new session till you reach that 20 wins with getting back the 1 session lost.
Bankroll is really the most important for you to last in the game and to have a better chances of winning, with a decent bankroll you will be able to operate according to your plan and you can manage your bankroll that you will not chase your chase and be frustrated whenever you are having a cold streak.
Yes, having a huge bankroll is good since you can plan on what strategies would you make and you can also made some adjustments compared to have a smaller bank roll which  is  very limited to do such steps but  even if you have  big or small bankroll  in playing gambling you would lose your money after all.
When you are in gambling and your intention is to make money you should be serious with your method and a good bankroll is the basic important things to consider, this bankroll will take care of your gambling sessions until your reach the amount of winning base on your plan, if you already achieve your goal then quit directly though.
10029  Economy / Economics / Re: Can we Manipulate Bitcoin price? on: August 20, 2016, 04:20:54 AM
if you are a big investor then surely you can manipulate the price of bitcoin, but it is not such an easy task, because it need a lot of money and strong decision taking hear.
though you need to have tons of money then, i doubt that one person can affect the price significantly though thats just my opinion
It's not possible this days because we are already a big community and we need more actions from a certain side to manipulate the price, what he have witness now is not a manipulation but it is what really is happening with the market of bitcoin.
10030  Economy / Economics / Re: If you were in desperate need for money.... on: August 20, 2016, 03:59:05 AM
I'm in desperate need for money right now. I need 3-5 BTC. I don't know what to do. I can't find a job because I have social anxiety. I have just 10 full member accounts in bitcointalk, that's it. I can sell it, maybe, but these accounts isn't even worth 1 BTC Sad

Its really sad to hear that you are going through this phase of your life and that is true that full member accounts will never give you that high amount but I don't understand why you need that high amount desperately?
well sometimes people are in deep shit such as loans and so on, thats why i dont like the banks that give them out, it should be destroyed
That's not right to say that banks should be destroyed, it is not only that we go to banks because we are desperate of money but most people are getting loans to start their business or to improve their business, in that way banks can help people to improve their lives.
10031  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you consider trading as gambling? on: August 20, 2016, 03:49:12 AM
I would not consider trading to be gambling for a few reasons. First you are trading bitcoins for another currency so you are getting something in return. Also, you are making trades based on trends of the market so you have some control over the price that you buy and sell. In other words, it's not all left to chance.
exactly once, in our trading is everything .we can control and do whatever we want. whereas gambling game does not have full control of what we do. gambling and trading are very different.
Our control only in gambling is when putting our bets then after that we shall be waiting for the result. And maybe we just have to rely on our luck but if you really want to make money I would not say that is not in gambling, trading is the best venture to learn as you have more chances.
10032  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bitcoin Gambling is Exploding on: August 20, 2016, 03:12:04 AM
Bitcoin gambling is better than any other type because of the low amount you can play with. On Dice games, I can play with 1 satoshi. There's no other casino accepting that small amount except the ones for Bitcoin. Also, it's fast and secure. But USD gambling is far more popular and played than BTC is.
Yup, its very fast and totally anonimous. No need for identifications and shit. There are some flaws but its okay. This is the best ever created. Bitcoin is recommended by gamblers coz its very fast. Its not only for gambling, many companies like online shop and others are already created. For me, bitcoin is the best
That's true, in bitcoin we do not need to divulge our real information before we are allowed to gamble which makes it very convenient for us to gamble anytime. It is exploding because majority of the gambling sites offers also investment program and for the gamblers they have more opportunity to gamble due to the lowest minimum amount of wagered required to gamble.
10033  Other / Off-topic / Re: Are you buying bitcoins? Why? on: August 20, 2016, 02:42:35 AM
I think it is a good moment to buy.
We see some pressure on bitcoin, kim dotcom announced that he will enter it- but the price is still low, so it should be a good decision to get some.
of course it is a really great time to buy your bitcoins, the price is definitely going to jump so if you want to make money then its time to invest
Actually if we are too confident that the price of bitcoin will rise we would not hesitate to buy more bitcoins now as my prediction if the price will not rise this month but at least before the end of this year we can see major price improvement compared to the current price and since you need not to wait for a long period of time that is already a good profit for a short term.
10034  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To Gamble or To Invest? on: August 20, 2016, 02:25:58 AM
I would suggest you to keep the money in your wallet as BTC itself is an investment with respect to fiat. When the prices go up sell some btc for fiat.
Stay away from either investment and gambling because both are very risky. Those are your hard earned money. Dont let your hard work go in vain.
I think you are just holding your bitcoins if you put your bitcoins in wallet.. for the best investment is to invest it to your knowledge the better you learn the better you have a good future.. this is what i do right now because i saw many marketing  online are successful so i was study affiliate marketing. because this is my dream to learn how SEO marketing works..
Instead of holding your coins or gamble better to use it and spend it for your knowledge..

Its a good thing that you possess such knowledge like  affiliate marketing that would be very a big help in your career but not all person in this forum have the same skills as yours maybe some have it  but for those dont have  any idea  about it then for sure they would choose to hold their coins rather  than investing  to things  that they dont even know and its a good decision. Holding bitcoins itself  is also an investment  because  bitcoins price is volatile you can make good profits  out of it in the future, it may take a long time but still its also an investment.
If I can convince that I do not have a talent to run my own business which is investment in my own then I would simply buy bitcoins and hold it for the future, that is so effortless as you are not managing your business at all and all you need to buy as much bitcoins as you need and wait and hope the future is a success.
10035  Other / Off-topic / Re: du you spend coins on real life. on: August 20, 2016, 02:22:41 AM
I spend in real life to trip and shop.
i never spend my bitcoins in real life, i only buy some stuff online and on steam, it is really easy to use bitcoins to be honest

As of now there are few stores accept bitcoins and  some countries dont accept. We are the same on spending our bitcoin i usually purchase steam wallet codes  using bitcoin to purchase items on dota2 and you are right its really easy to use and  also convenient and thanks to bitcoin.
What you are talking is not really the demand of the majority, stores you are talking are only for those who love online games but base of my study people loves to transact online to buy physical stuffs online so they can also resell it in their country which is not possible as of the moment since some of the major merchants are not accepting bitcoins.
10036  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: August 20, 2016, 02:13:10 AM
You should find a balance between saving / investing money, but if you need to choose one , it's better to invest it.


Yes, if you have much money and you are not use it. I think it's better to invest it into something, so your idle money can earn profit from the investment.


Put your idle money to bitcoins and buy the bitcoins as much you can and hold the bitcoin into your hardware wallet and see after 5 years that bitcoin will become double the amount for sure.

It can be even more than double after 5 years if the momentum does not change. It already have done than in less than a year. Last year the price of bitcoin is just over 250, and now it is 500+. Imagine how much more it can grow in 5 more years.

Yeah if you can afford to invest your money and wait for 5 years then I think investing in bitcoin is the best option as price will go much higher in next 5 to 10 years.

Investing in bitcoin would be also a good thing but  invest what you can afford to loose because we still dont even know what would be the price of bitcoin in future years it would rise or it would fall just two things but there are lot of investors out there have high hopes for bitcoins development in future  thats why they  buy more bitcoins as of now and holding them for a long time waiting for  the  price increase.
The information we can get now is telling that bitcoin will be a big success in the future, savings and investing can be done with both in bitcoin as for sure the money we are holding if we save it in our wallet would be a great value in the future to come.
10037  Economy / Economics / Re: How too get rich on: August 20, 2016, 02:08:18 AM
Always save some of your money everytime you received your payment and don't buy something useless. These are the easiest way to do, and you can start an investment for the future.
Yeah! I like the strategy to focus first on savings and just later when we have already achieve our goal amount of our savings that is the time to start investing because when you mix the two you will not succeed, it should be one step at a time.
10038  Economy / Economics / Re: If you were in desperate need for money.... on: August 19, 2016, 02:08:11 PM
I'm in desperate need for money right now. I need 3-5 BTC. I don't know what to do. I can't find a job because I have social anxiety. I have just 10 full member accounts in bitcointalk, that's it. I can sell it, maybe, but these accounts isn't even worth 1 BTC Sad
How sad, it's true you accounts would not worth the amount you needed. Knowing that already, you have to find another solution with your problem and in desperate times comes with desperate measure, I would suggest if you have a land sell it if you badly need money.
10039  Other / Off-topic / Re: Will you quit your day job to go full time on bitcoin? on: August 19, 2016, 02:03:15 PM
It would be too risky to quit your job but it would be good for you if you would make use of bitcoin too.
Yeah! it is true that quitting our job is too risky as we might not succeed in focusing with bitcoin. Our job provides us a stable and consistent income while in bitcoin we might lose our money, that's the big difference for everyone who wish to go full time with bitcoin.

There are many people who are full time in bitcoin especially the traders who are making good money with it but to get full time on bitcoin you also need high capital to invest at initial stage.
Maybe you can say that because you are just hearing one side of the story, not all traders are making money because if that is easy we are all into trading now, it needs a good skills and knowledge to be successful if not we will just doing it like a gambling that we rely on luck alone.
10040  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Everyone looses in the long run on: August 19, 2016, 01:59:49 PM
We can never beat the house, no one! The luck is very rare in gambling, even you are winning in the beginning you will never know if it will continue until the end (I doubt having an ending). Don't be greedy on your winnings because it will  not help you, it will cause you losing your earnings and leave it with nothing.

yes you are right bro. we all loss if make a challenge with the house and the house will take all our money. so i think when we have got winning in several times in successive, then its time to stop and cash your winning, quit that game, walk away from that house and never look back because if you look back for just once second, then the power of seduce will tempting you to come back and will invite you to play more  Grin
Well, for me I also play in gambling with a house advantage but I really did not do it seriously, I only play for fun. Every time I am more serious with my gambling I choose a gambling type like sports betting because I know I have a good chance to win and make money compared to machine base games.
