That’s a lot of money, I’d better to invest on cryptocurrency and live a simple life with a lot of money. Its not easy to run business, you have to put more time and effort on that especially in a gambling site. Think again if you still want to push it through, look for some professional who can help you on this, I assume you are well aware on this.
1102  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Want to quit? Here's how on: January 10, 2019, 08:29:18 AM
Arrest the addiction.

That's how you quit.
Pure and simple.


Yes, it's simple, but it's hard to do because the addiction is not just to talk about the addicted itself, but it also needs to know what the method to solve the problem. And once the right method can apply, I am sure the addiction will be cured. But it needs a big effort to stay patient while we are trying to solve the problem and we need more support from other people.
Arrest those addict?
I don't understand this one, because addiction is not a crime its a battle between you and your emotion. If you're addict in gambling, you cannot stop that easily you have to undergo with the process, and that process will take more time. Its good if there is someone who can work with you, and help you to be better again, patient is the key of course but try to put big effort on that.

Up to now, what is your #1 favorite cryptocoin, and why?

If you have a hard time to choose just one, please feel free to post your top 3.

Personally, Bitcoin has always had and will always have a very special place for being the first to get me into the space.

On top of that I like and support several coins of which at the moment my favorite is Tezos (XTZ).
Bitcoin of course, because its too good not to invest on this coin. If you want a good profit in long term, then investing more with bitcoin is ideal one. But since there are also some good altcoins that is worth investing for, my choice is with ETH, it can grow higher as the time past by and the future is in this market. Just keep on looking for good coins, and invest while you can.

There is so much FUD circulating in the market last year, and I still expect to hear more of them this year 2019. Well, because of those FUD i lose some money because I panic too, now I wish to be more focus on my goal.


1105  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which ETH wallet supports the upcoming hard forks? on: January 09, 2019, 10:52:00 PM
I think all official ETH wallets will support this and we don't need to worry and big exchanges like binance have also been confirmed to support Hardfork and will distribute bonus coins if there are branching afterwards
Yea, its confirmed with the top exchanges so we have a lot of choices where to buy and hold ETH. Its good that a lot of exchanges support the hardfork and I’m confident that we will going to be more successful this year as the big coins are now moving to provide us a more quality service.
1106  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you remember your first sports bet? on: January 09, 2019, 02:53:39 PM
I remember this local betting sports game back then where you will bet based on the ending score on a local basketball game. The game is televised and all people can watch. Of the winning score for example is 94-98,the ending combination would be 8-4, the winning team would be the first number. There are 90 combinations including 0-0. The odds are surely 1:100 but if you win, your $2 will become $170. The remaining $30 is for the house.


Most of the people getting classes in the first but I definitely sure this will happen to lots of people because gambling is one of the hardest game that we have to do lots of research and that otherwise we cannot make huge profit with gambling.
Remember this game, and honestly I’m one of those collector and as a collector you have nothing to lose since you only collect the money of every participant, you will just get some bonus from the winner. I don’t understand why we need to do lots of research in gambling? I think most of the gambler don’t care on this anymore its too hard and time consuming, they will just play and ignore this step.
1107  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Earning Bitcoin is good, but don't depent on it. on: January 09, 2019, 01:24:49 PM
Yes right, for beginners like me, it's impossible to fully depend on my life for Bitcoin, because now it's very difficult to get income from Bounty, so I have to find another job besides I work here, looking for BItcoin.
The more source of income we have the better, so its not good to depend your daily needs alone to bitcoin. You’d better to treat this market as your long term investment since the price are still cheap but the future is good. If bounty doesn’t work well to you, look for another opportunities.
1108  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How gambling sites can cheat you on: January 09, 2019, 10:51:53 AM
If you are deposited your money into a scammybwebsite then you may need to worry about these to be happening but there are lot of websites out there with huge bankroll in,if they scamming one person or few they can be exposed and all their investment will be gone so picknthe right gambling site.
Yeah, make a good choice and don’t look for the games that you want to play, its a must to know more about the gambling sites before you put money. Gambling is too risky and don’t take another risk by investing on a wrong site. Just monitor your account on any site and if there’s any changes without moving anything then I think something is really wrong on that site.
If you are not active on gambling, then monitoring your account is good just to be sure your money is safe. Even if its a trusted gambling site, it is still possible to incur some problem. Its very rare to hear a scam incidents in gambling site with the top gaming site it mostly happen at a small gambling site where you can see a poor service and a poor system, better not to play on that at all.
1109  Economy / Economics / Re: Stock Market Will Have ‘Good Year’ in 2019: Wharton Finance Prof. on: January 09, 2019, 09:17:31 AM
While the US stock market continues to struggle as a result of various institutional and political forces, Jeremy Siegel, professor of Finance at the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School of Business, remains optimistic about the state of the market in 2019.

Speaking in an interview on CNBC’s Squawk on the Street, Siegel predicted that equity markets in the United States would have “a good year,” rising in the range of 5 to 15 percent.

    We went from a rosy view to now, ‘Oh my God, there’s going to be a recession.’ The truth will be somewhere in between, and that leaves the stock market very attractive now.

Using the current valuations levels, he said that even if there is no growth in earnings this year, the current realities make it a “cheap market.” He acknowledged that a recession could drag the already-battered markets a bit, but he maintained that this wasn’t going to happen.

Hopefully, our local stock market is part of this growth this year, so I can get back my loss now.  Cheesy

Well, so many good prediction in both market (stocks and crypto), I just hope for that one to happen. In cryptomarket, many speculation but still its not guaranteed but it doesn't mean also that there is no chance to achieve that level. Its good to see a more positive prediction like this, maybe its about time to increase my holdings.
1110  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A banking app helped me beat my addiction on: January 09, 2019, 04:44:18 AM
Zero empathy from those people, I agree there is something to gambling which is a native reaction in the brain.
Would you still say the same if it's a disease? My thinking is gambling addiction is a disease and the patient needs special treatment. If you break your legs then you head towards hospital to meet the orthopaedic, if you have teeth problem you go to the dentist but if you have problems in mind then what do you do?

Fist it's very difficult to convince yourself that you have mental issue. I mentally sick person never realize that he is mentally ill. He sees everything from his view and find it logical. Gambling addiction is a kind of mental illness and I guess close relatives can help the person instead of blaming him for the disease.

When you are addict in gambling, for sure you are already mentally sick because you can't control yourself anymore and you only focus on gambling. If there is someone that you think can help you to get out on that addiction, better to seek for guidance.

This is really odd but atleast this is a proof that anything would be a scapegoat on your gambling addiction. You can find fun in anything, sometimes those things that you find boring before. The will power makes it happen. The person really wants to overcome addiction and thats why he succeeds. Its really hard to  do this but like they say, no pain, no gain.
In gambling, you only get pain in the long run, though there is some gain but it will just lose later on so its useless. Addiction is not good at all, we want to end it but its hard to it but don't lose hope there's still a way to get out on a dark place.
1111  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bakkt is a new hope? on: January 08, 2019, 11:31:51 PM
BAKKT can open new opportunities for big investors and this is very important to bring new capitals in crypto market.
Waiting for the great outcome if good things happen and hopefully more investors will come and trust the market. I see this as big event since a lot of hodlers are waiting for the possible result. For now, just try to invest more since the market are still low and when the hype comes again, expect the price to boom.
1112  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Happy New Year! Welcome 2019 the year of the cryptonians! on: January 08, 2019, 03:25:34 PM
Last year was not all that good. Will this one be better? Happy hopefully less bearish new year!
We can’t say yet but we are waiting for the market to recover and see its true strength. This is a year of cryptocurrency, let’s claim it and make a new limit and target price to enjoy the futures profit. Stop focusing on the negative news and start to be more positive, cryptocurrency will be nice if we continue to support it.
1113  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: P2P gambling games on: January 08, 2019, 12:59:25 PM
This can be a good one but maybe its hard to make game like this in cryptoworld since most of the developers wants to earn money, and always want to have an advantage against the gambler. I tried to play P2P, and its common through the card game, well hope to see like this in the future so we can now have the chance to earn.
1114  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How much did you make from gambling in 2018! on: January 08, 2019, 11:42:55 AM
2018 was a big year for me in terms of growth. Because majority of my holdings peaked high profiting me with good returns. Same happened with gambling, I always prefer sports betting. I made around 1.5 btc through different sports betting. Finally I lost everything in a month's time. After which I realized and started to spend on gambling with limitations which lets me to avoid big losses.
This is what happen if we continue to gamble. We may earned a lot last year but it can be gone easily if we still choose to play. By this, I can say that all the profit that we made in gambling will still lose in the future.

I don't have any record on how much I made for 2018 with gambling but I don't gamble that much so I guess it won't be that much.

Not more than $500 and not lower than $50.
That’s great! At least you are able to control yourself and generate some profit. Let’s play like this and don’t gamble everyday.
1115  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why the market will continue to fall on: January 08, 2019, 10:16:16 AM
Are you one of those guys spreading fud so that the price goes down and you can buy some more ? Don't you think this year has been enough ?
BTC will never reach zero, there will always be demand for it whatever happens to it.
Its hard to stop them from spreading the FUD and its affecting the market especially if people are too dependent with the news. We can fight this one by just making ourselves more knowledgeable about cryptomarket and prevent from listening to any news that bitcoin will die because its not gonna happen. Don’t trust ayone, trust the market and stay on your strategies.
1116  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Want to quit? Here's how on: January 08, 2019, 08:58:05 AM
More desire you want to stop gambling then you will more deep for your addictions and to stopped from addicted things is not an easy task even it's almost impossible to quit from it without other people help and for me besides all of OP mention above then we should not be shy to tell our addictions to others people especially to our family because our environment can be good medicine to heal from addictions
Sometimes its hard to do it alone, and some of the gamblers who lose big money ended up killing their own lives, so I think its really good if you seek some guidance with your family because its not easy to get out on that addiction, and of course you will feel the love and comfort that you need and it can really heal the wounds.
1117  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: ETH return to 1000 USD after hardfork? on: January 07, 2019, 11:23:40 PM
I don't think hardfork can help bring Ethereum back its price. Perhaps we will see a slight increase in the price, but obviously not to$1000. He's not ready to come back yet.
Yeah, this is just another hype with ETH though I support this coin but for me its too high to reach that level again. We are not in a bull market so I don't think ETH will that level. Don't expect too much from the hardfork, its still not sure to help the market of ETH up so be on sideways where you are ready for anything and if the price of ETH dumps again, you will not be panic because you are well prepared for it.
1118  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: the house always win???? on: January 07, 2019, 10:45:26 PM
Not always but it's often to win.

How to beat the house ? Become lucky enough and having some guts and finally they meet at perfect time, you can win big !
It's difficult but it's not impossible !
That probability to win big in gambling is too low, and maybe you already spend a lot of money before you achieve that because the house always win. If you got lucky and win the grand prize for sure someone is suffering because they also bet on that, so it means the house still make profit on that even if they give you big money.
1119  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Want to quit? Here's how on: January 07, 2019, 10:17:13 PM
Good luck with the career of writing a book someday, I know that you can do it.

Each point is correct that one should quit if they really want to. Will power, discipline and other self restrains. Quitting isn't easy, do love the process and get your way out of it if you really wanted to quit.
There’s a resistance in some gambler to accept the fact that they are already addict and they need to change or else they will be broke later. Its not easy yes, but you can go with the process and of course you will not do it one time big time because you won’t success through that strategies. Btw, Its good to be writer so good luck OP.
1120  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Want to quit? Here's how on: January 07, 2019, 01:10:00 PM
Yes gambling is fun, but it can also be a reason of your loneliness and depression.
The reverse is also true. Yes, people are going for gambling to get rid of their loneliness and depression and then get addicted to it. Gambling is fun but anything too much will kill. No exceptions.
Losing in gambling is very common, and there’s an option for us to leave but sometimes we still choose to stay and keep playing, but in the end we still failed and becomes more emotional, a very common situation of addict gambler.

Quit means leaving the casinos for good and not just stopping yourself not to play today and continue next week, its about doing the hardest thing through small steps and evetually you will become 100% free from gambling addiction.
