10041  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How do you choose DEX? How to avoid scam? on: October 17, 2019, 03:21:46 AM
I only use Idex.market to trade tokens, and I have a terrible experience with etherdelta, so I don't want to use their exchange again. But if somehow, the token is only available on etherdelta, I might be traded on that exchange, especially if the price is very high on that exchange. But I don't have the requirement to choose the DEX because I don't use the other decentralized exchange because I think it's almost the same between one decentralized exchange with the others exchange.
10042  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Future of digital money depends on smart phone technology and people's knowledge on: October 16, 2019, 04:11:52 PM
Before people can use cryptocurrency, people need to learn. Learn how to use cryptocurrency, where they can use cryptocurrency, and how they will use cryptocurrency. They don't have to learn to details about cryptocurrency. The most important is they need to know what is a wallet to store the coins, how to sent and receive the coin, what they need to have before they can use it. They don't have to learn about programming to know and use cryptocurrency. It's like how people used the internet, and they don't have to learn what is IP, domain, hosting, etc.
10043  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Halving and price History Analysis on Chart on: October 16, 2019, 03:02:05 PM
So basically you are saying we should just buy Bitcoin immediately after halving and then we should hold it until a few years because as far as I can see it takes a few months after the halving for pump to begin.

That is up to you, and you have your money, you are free to buy bitcoin right now or later Grin

But if I were you, I will buy bitcoin every time the price is down, and sell it every time the price is up. But I don't forget to save some amount of bitcoin to prepare for selling in the future because I am sure the price will be at the highest price. We are near the end of this year, and it's only 2 months later we will see the next year, so I don't want to be late to buy bitcoin at a low price.
10044  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 10 Years From Now: Bitcoin Overtaking PayPal? on: October 16, 2019, 02:02:01 PM
It's hard to tell, but in my opinion, PayPal will implement Bitcoin before we even notice. At least, that would be the best option for them I think.

Even if Paypal implements bitcoin, it will need longer than we can imagine because, until now, Paypal still dominates the market for the payment method besides credit card. But it will help bitcoin to grow fast if Paypal can integrate their system with bitcoin and people who know Paypal will learn about bitcoin and how to convert their balance inside their Paypal account. But for now, I don't think that bitcoin will overtake Paypal since we need to see bitcoin to be approved in many countries.
10045  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Do you think XRP will start to the moon? on: October 16, 2019, 12:47:16 PM
I don't know for sure, but it could happen this year. But if I see the price at the market, XRP still on the way to struggling to search a new stable price first before it can increase. But with the domination of bitcoin price, it seems it is hard for XRP to break the higher price because if bitcoin price is down, XRP and the other coin will go down too. And now, XRP has gone down again following bitcoin price, and we don't know if it will increase higher or back to the price before or will still go down. But for the long term, I think XRP has a chance to increase higher since this coin is on number 2 at CMC so it could increase the price later.
10046  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bitcoin and casinos on: October 16, 2019, 11:16:23 AM
I have worked for a few years in a casino and I couldn't help but imagine that people should be able to gamble with bitcoin.

Is it already happening? - I don't mean on the internet

And do you think this will be future of casinos?

Once they tested it and it's compatible with their system, they integrated it and make part of their system, casino operator wants convenience for their users, and so far online casinos are ok with integrating Bitcoin offline casinos are going to be the next inline, Bitcoin is in the adoption period so many industry are testing how to integrate it.

And if there is a big offline casino trying to integrating with bitcoin or cryptocurrency, and it succeeds, then that will be a way for cryptocurrency to be reached in the gambling industry. There will be much other offline gambling will follow that step to integrate with bitcoin and not just to use bitcoin, but they will use another coin. That will be a big step for cryptocurrency to reach more people in all country, especially for people who lived in the country where gambling was allowed.
10047  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling activities correlates with Bitcoin's price? on: October 16, 2019, 09:23:35 AM
I don't think is there any correlation between the prices of bitcoin and crypto gambling activities,because gamblers who using cryptos mostly change their fiat into cryptos in short time interval before betting so they are not going to have much higher or lower amount from the current fiat value.

Yes, maybe that is because they don't want to go to a real casino, and they want to hide their identity to play gambling. Once people were playing gambling, they will play again the other day. And there is no correlates with bitcoin price because they have another option for the coin to gamble. But indeed, the activities in gambling can be reduced in the decreasing of bitcoin price. Some of them are back to focus on the market to prevent the loss of trading.
10048  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Overall winning - Dice on: October 16, 2019, 08:28:20 AM
Have anyone profited out of dice in the short or long term. I have been trying the best and lost all, I can't leave it. Once after I loss I have gone beyond my ability. Finally as the wallet got emptied, I bought bitcoin particularly for betting and lost even the amount earned from my day job. I used to experience win, but at the end it is a loss. I miss the right time to stop and leave. Cry Cry Cry

That's the sad part not knowing how to leave and when to leave, before betting you should know all your expectation and part of that is when and how to leave the gambling site, if you don't know how to, you will keep on depositing until you have nothing left to deposit and you are in a losing side, and this is bad ways to gamble.

He can learn how to stop if he wants. Without having a big effort to know when to stop, he still remains in that circle, and he will spend more money to buy bitcoin and using for gambling. Maybe that is the problem for many gamblers, and many of us don't know when to stop because it just like we need one more roll to win big, but the truth is we are losing again and again.
10049  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Be careful of Bitcoins giveaways that are too good to be true on: October 15, 2019, 12:59:39 PM
Lots of people are now wise up and aware about such scams,  any investments schemes that promise to double  your investment within a short period of time is mostly to be a scam,  they were rampant around 2017-18 when lots of people are not aware about such scams,  currently,  only the greedy ones that will fall for such scams

I am sure people can search for more news to find scams or to know if that is a scam or not. But yes, people already get many experiences related to the fraud itself, and that makes them careful to choose the investment from the projects. They will invest in the project after they can get so much information related to the project, so they don't get another scam. Besides that, they have a good lesson on how to avoid the scam, and they will tell their experience to other people too.
That is some of the problems some people are facing,  they are lazy in doing thorough research about what they wanna, no matter the experience a greedy fellow had experience he will still want to invest in a ponzi scheme thinking that he's gonna hit it big

Moreso there are some projects that looks good to be true, they will have good website,  team,  and at the end of the day they end up being a scam project,  

No need a long time to see he will lose all the money he has because once we invest in a Ponzi scheme, it's only a matter of time our money will disappear. The good website and teams don't guarantee it will succeed in a long time because that will depends on how good they work for their projects. And if that is related to Ponzi, then we will see how long they can online and take the people's money.

I have seen that before, and I also have a bad experience with Ponzi. But then, I realize that I need to stop and search for real things that can help me to make money.
10050  Economy / Exchanges / Re: What kind of function would you like to have on an exchange? on: October 15, 2019, 11:32:29 AM
Maybe I can make a list to you:
1. Have many coins in your exchange site.
2. Have 2 option for the member for the KYC, like what Binance did.
3. 24/7 support system so members who have a problem can get handled by your team/staff.
4. Have a high speed to trade because we will be sad if the trade will get delay.
5. Mobile friendly access.
6. Have a faucet to get free coin Grin ( I am joking)
7. Don't use big fees to withdraw, or trade Wink

But maybe you can find out by yourself with visiting other big exchanges in out there like Binance, Poloniex, Kucoin, Bittrex, Bitmex, Okex, etc.
10051  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I access my BTC and other wallets on Public Internet Cafe on: October 15, 2019, 10:06:10 AM
I know it is not secure to use public internet Cafe Computers for accessing the wallets and for transaction needs. At times I don't have any other option than just using it. I would like to know, is there any software available to record the input data entered while accessing the wallet. Recently one of my friend informed about such a way to know the private keys. Is there anyone here have any such experience.

It is better not accessing your wallet in the public space or internet cafe because we don't know how they can secure those places. We need to protect our wallet from the malicious thing or malware or virus that can run in the background. We don't know how we can affect that virus, especially if the virus can inject our wallet and steal our bitcoin. Please don't carry your wallet with you everywhere you go. You don't have to access the wallet, and I think you will be safe from any bad things from the internet cafe. But we could only suggest to you, and it's up to you to follow our advice or not.
10052  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: No other currency on: October 15, 2019, 09:04:54 AM
What if there is no other crypto currency or alt coin. How does it affect the price of the bitcoin. How high is the value of bitcoin in your opinion.?

I never imagine or never though if a cryptocurrency doesn't have altcoin, and I don't know how high the bitcoin value. When there is a chance to make more money, people will tend to create a new way so they can make more and more money. Maybe that is the reason why there is altcoin besides bitcoin. And with the altcoin, it does help us to make more bitcoin, which we can convert into fiat, and we should thank you to the altcoin. Bitcoin can change people's perception of cryptocurrency, but with altcoin, cryptocurrency can survive for a long time.
10053  Economy / Economics / Re: BEEN IN THIS GAME FOR 6 YEARS on: October 15, 2019, 08:04:37 AM
Because in 2016, people don't see the chance for bitcoin to increase high, so people laugh at him. That is normal because they think that bitcoin can't survive for a long time. But after they see the reality and see that bitcoin increased so high, they will not laugh, and instead, they will buy bitcoin at any price. That happens too in many places because people still using a traditional way to make money. They don't realize that bitcoin can help them to produce money, and even it will bigger than what they did.

We can educate them to learn bitcoin, but it's up to them to buy bitcoin or not. If people still prefer doing their work in a traditional job, then we cannot do anything. Let them decide, and meanwhile, we can continue for what we did, and we keep trying to make money from bitcoin.
10054  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: why some shitcoins has different price on diferent exchanges? on: October 15, 2019, 05:57:47 AM
I think that depends on how many traders that trade those coins and how much money they use to buy and sell the coin. It is normal to see the different price on different exchanges. If you check on the big exchanges and compare between two or three exchanges, you will also see that there is a different price too. If you don't want to feel scam or get scam, you must not trade on that exchange because many other exchanges which will not be a scam exchange.

If you can see a different big gap of the price, you can try to arbitrage trading Grin

But I won't suggest if you don't have enough skills to trade. Besides that, you should think and calculate how long the coin will be arriving in the other exchanges so you can sell the coin at the right time.
10055  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling as a profession: there's people who live out of gambling? on: October 15, 2019, 04:58:32 AM
Just curious here.
I know there are tons of way to live.

but is there such a thing as professional gamblers?

people who make a living onlyout of gambling (online or on rl)?

resources and comments on that are really welcome.

I think there are and they are many of them like casino operators, dealers, and usher they make a living out of the gambling industry, but if it is only in playing gambling, I don't think they are that many, because it's hard to make a living out of gambling alone, it's a game of luck that even gamblers have no control of, it takes to become a god of gambler to make a living out of gambling.

For people who are not playing gambling, but they work in the gambling industry, they can make a living from gambling. But for people who are playing gambling, they are hard to make a living. They will face experiences to get lost many times because they really need to have luck. The luck itself will not come to them every day so that will makes them have to lose the money.

We talk in the general of gambling games and not for specific of the games. Although there is a chance for poker player or sports betting which can make a living from that type of gambling, that still is difficult for ordinary people who don't have so many experiences to make a living from gambling.
10056  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If You Win Big Will You Remember Your Losses on: October 15, 2019, 03:47:07 AM
I always remember my losses because I keep a track on the spreadsheet how much money I've loss  and why I've got a tracker because that money comes from the loan I took. Even though I have already recovered my loss, but every win I always subtract it from my losses.


I am sure that you can control your money in gambling, so you don't get a big loss. But I guess that you will need a long time to recover your losses because I don't think that you can win many times in gambling. You will need a huge lucky to win the games, especially to win big money. But even you get a big win, and it doesn't mean you can recover your losses because I am sure that your losses will bigger than all of your winnings.

But having a tracker to know how much you win and lose will give you a chance to see how big you're lucky in gambling. I never suggest getting the money from a loan because we will be difficult to pay back the loan, especially we cannot always win the gambling game.
10057  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Hold on: October 15, 2019, 01:45:32 AM
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 are young but you are so smart at age of 13 you buy bitcoin and you want it to hold. Good for you my dear. Hold your bitcoin and you will wait at the right time to sell it. I know you have a big faith on bitcoin thats why you invest in bitcoin.
This kid is very clever at his age he is interested in crypto and even invested in bitcoin. When I was young I know nothing and didn't think to earn money. But this person makes a great decision in life to earn money. At this point good to hold btc and wait for the price to surge up so he can able to have profit.

That is because when we are at the age of 13, the chance for us to make money is not widely. Our parents tell us that we must go to school, having fun with our friends without trying to give or introduce what we will be when we grow up. And with technology nowadays, many parents realize that to make money can be from many sources and not just from the office. We can use the internet to make money and get much information about making money. So that kid was very lucky kid among the others because he buy bitcoin and now he is waiting for the increase in the price. But I wonder how much bitcoin he purchased in a year ago.
10058  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will XRP Claim the #2 Position? on: October 14, 2019, 04:01:43 PM
We will see it later. If XRP can do that, then everything will change for temporary because ethereum still has a project which is going on until now. I think not just XRP that wants to claim the #2 position at CMC, but the other coins want to do the same thing as XRP. XRP itself has the potential to compete with the ethereum, especially if the price and the volume and also the marketcap can increase higher. But that will be too difficult to increase everything to beat ethereum because ethereum still a strong coin at the CMC.
10059  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin: Stress and Happiness on: October 14, 2019, 11:32:32 AM
I don't feel that it will bring me stress to see the volatility of bitcoin price because I can accept the risk when I knew that bitcoin price is always moved. Without taking the risk, you will feel stress, and you cannot survive in the bear market, and you will lose your bitcoin too because you will sell your bitcoin if the price is down. You need to calm down with everything happenings in the market so you can reduce your stress and you will have a chance to recover your losses.
10060  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Crowded Casinos - Play or not? on: October 14, 2019, 10:25:58 AM
Honestly, it is difficult to play in casinos that are crowded because it is very difficult to move and it is irritating that you can't even focus on the gambling game that you are playing, so i only play when there wasn't any a lot of people in a casino for me to enjoy and focus myself from playing gambling.

Every live casino is usually always crowded and these people enjoy every game, if it really makes it out of focus surely the casino will be quiet.
If you want to focus, don't play at the casino, play online casino. In that case you can freely relax, calm and focus. But it must be remembered that the atmosphere will subside with direct casinos.

For people who can get focus while playing gambling, they can choose an online casino. But for people who to feel the excitement in the real casino, he can select live casinos. I prefer to play online casinos too than the live casino because I don't have to go to that place. I don't want to break the rule in my country because of playing gambling. Besides that, I don't see live casinos around my neighborhood.
