1101  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you manage greed to place your bet on: October 15, 2023, 09:27:10 PM
For much long now I have never place bet with a higher amount but there was a bet i placed few days ago and i was tempted to increase my wager from what it should be before, Let say i often gamble with at least 200 Naira and maximum is 2,000 for a multiple bets But recently something came into me to start increasing my wager above my limits due to a game that was predicts to me it gives me all possibilities that I could cash out big time.
I have noticed that gamblers usually increasing their wagering amount exceedingly beyond their normal amount on bet predictions that were giving to them by a random person or the so-called VIP gambling groups. What's the inspiration behind that? Is it that as a gambler you don't believe in yourself being capable of predicting games that could have high stakes to play as predicted by you or you just don't believe in your luck shining for you?

Many gamblers have lost big money because they chooses to bind their hopes on predictions that were given to them by others and they ended losing it wholly unexpected of them. If you don't assume you can win all by yourself why gamble at the first instance?

Basically, Osimhen has had good playing time at Napoli but unfortunately, Napoli this season is not as good as last season. Also, if Osimhen stays in Napoli for a long time, then of course that would be very unfortunate . Because Osimhen should have new challenges, such as playing in other big leagues in Europe. Therefore, it is not surprising that there are rumors predicting that Real Madrid is interested in bringing in Osimhen too, and of course this offer is a great offer.
From the look of things it doesn't seem like Osimhen is ready to exit Napoli anytime soon, for he has great qualities any big team at all in Europe would be searching for if they're going for a striker and that leaves him with a lot of choice into any team of his interest but like I said it doesn't seem he wants to leave Napoli right now. Real Madrid a fantastic club for him but it won't be the right place to be if he's to leave, there's Bellingham a midfielder with a striker quality and rumors are that Mbappe will be leaving for real madrid next season from PSG so what sure spot will be left open for Osimhen finding himself at madrid with all the star players they have all in their best form, the competition there is too high. It will just be like another case of Eden Hazard for him always sitting or coming in from the bench. That will be wrecking for his career.

Just checked Wikipedia about 1xbet and the truth is visible to everyone.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1xBet#:~:text=These%20are%20%22Sergey%20Karshkov%22%2C,case%2C%20with%20penalty%20of%20imprisonment.

The site was declared a scam a long time ago. It was also declared to be bankrupt earlier this year itself. It's still up and running somehow just like 1xbit. Also, the co-founder died way back in June itself. Trash Russian sites!

Are sites that are declared bankrupt and scammed not suppose to stop functioning why is 1Xbit and 1xbet case different and if they are truly bankrupt like they claim who them is paying for their advertising services as I can still come across their scam casino advertisements on different platforms even on different television channels.
You can say that again @ever-young, how do a site that is bankrupt able to pay all the advertisement bills and the intriguing part is that they have a wider advertising than even reputable gambling sites I can think of. For instance, there's no UCL MatchDay Live that 1xbet advertisement don't run before and after the matches starts and here they are tell us this scam site is bankrupt, isn't this ironical?

I found this thread   https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5470095.msg62985257#msg62985257      a day ago on the forum in the gambling board about genuine trusted review sites and it baffled me that 1xbit was in that list of trusted sites with  genuine reviews and it just rexkon to me that these are just paid reviews as usual for promotions. However when the op got "lambasted" by forum members on seeing 1xbit in that list of reputable gambling sites he eventually delisted them from the list.  How do we know if 1xbit/1xbet didn't pay this reviewing site to have them in that list, for a gambling company that's said to be bankrupt.

When I first read this news days ago I was surprised or engulfed with euphoria because politicians we know when it gets to this stage  are desperate people whenever it's time for the polls they can say anything just to get the sympathy and vote of the masses to their camp. However, if he's been honest with his interest and aspiration for bitcoin  should he get elected as president God willing, then that would be a step forward for bitcoin seeing him implementing his promises as spoken on the account that politicians can be saying another and be meaning something else different.
I doubt that will be the case with him because from the comment of the OP, the Bitcoin community is too small to determine the outcome of the election. Meaning, he will be taking a big political risk thinking that pacifying the Bitcoin community could earn him the presidency. So, I would say his love for Bitcoin is genuine.

Whether he will win or not, is way off my limits to know as I do not see him as a serious contender to Trumph and Biden.
In politics at the polls 1 number is very important and can influence the decision and outcome of an election. The bitcoin community might be a small one in the United States but adding that number to the number of the general public that may be on his side is an added advantage and every professional politician understands this mathematics

Quote
He is almost certain to lose. Unless Biden or trump drops out at the last minute.
From all indications he Kennedy Jr no doubt has no winning chance contesting against Trump and Biden but that doesn't mean he shouldn't try. Maybe by unforeseen circumstance the table might turn around for his favour.

Signature campaigns can not bring effect if only running in one or a few weeks. It needs to be a long run campaign to have effect but it is challenging for a new casino like any new business. They can have a budget for marketing but they only can run sustainable marketing if budget for it not only comes from the team pocket but also from profit of their business. When their business gets profit, they can use part of profit for marketing and I am sure it is how big casinos do.

They get effects from their long run campaigns and they reuse business profit for their campaign prolongs.

Long term campaign is also not a guarantee that it will bring good effect to the casinos, why? Simply because the main product/services/offers provided by the casino is the main important thing to attract gamblers to come-deposit-play-stay.
Signature campaign is just an advertisement tool to make people aware about the existence of the product, but real customers will decide to use it or not after looking deeper at the product.
It means that advertisement can be useless if the product is not attractive enough to gain the interest from customers.
The two goes together mate, without a sustainable wider reach advertisement the existence of a product or service will not be recognize or known by a good number of it's targeted prospect and even with how A-1 the product or service they offer might be it can't grow profit without a sustainable complimented advert. And one thing about advertisement is that it acts as a reminder to her users and prospects that a certain company producing certain product/service is standing tall and making giant strides in the market. Without it customers base is likely to drop
because they may feel the company is no more invoke so they sort for another that's in invoke and making the news at the time, furthermore  new customers hard to come by.
It can be challenging for a new company that's just trying to illuminate it's brand in a market where others  are already dominant and that is the first major challenge of a new unpopular brand. So it's understandable that it's not easy.
1106  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: An agent is no where to be found. on: October 14, 2023, 10:02:08 PM
This is an experience I have witnessed twice this year from different betshop agents too in my locality and it's like it's becoming a trend among gambling shop agents to elope with gamblers huge winning as a means to escape poverty and start a new life somewhere. Due to this in avoiding this disaster I only gamble at mega gambling agent shops cause it's obvious that it's those small gambling shops that these agents acts in this manner, more like a predetermined act that made them to register as agents to gambling companies in the country.

Aside making bets in mega shops I think people should also avoid placing bets with huge potential amount of winning in betshops, the can manage to do so with bet of no significant amount to be won but when it comes to huge amount online gambling with a reputable gambling site or casino/sportbetting company is the safe place for that.

Before anyone can talk about Chelsea giving an impressive performance in this Derby match against Arsenal next week Saturday let's pause and take a look comparing the consistency of these two teams throughout this EPL season. We can't say much about Chelsea having great consistency report going by the results of their total games played this season when in fact Arsenal have been able to keep the tide  despite their key players on injury they still managed to gain victory beating City in last weekends' game. And that victory by arsenal over Manchester City gives me the assurance that arsenal would have the three points at Standford bridge cause they are a team which their winning streaks  consistency isn't in doubt when matched with Chelsea despite playing at home.
Indeed, Maybe if it was Chelsea at the past time, this might have happened. However, looking at the current condition and performance of the Chelsea club, I have a little doubt that they will play very impressively in the derby. Moreover, to beat Arsenal. Currently, Arsenal are in a very good mood, not just the mood, the consistency of their performance is also getting better. They have advantages in these areas compared to Chelsea. If Arsenal loses to Chelsea in the next match, this means Arsenal really played badly. And maybe because Chelsea currently has a high fortune. Not underestimating Chelsea and not not believing anything can happen in the world of football, but this is talking based on the quality of the players and their consistency when seen from their performance so far.
That's just it, if it was the Chelsea of the past we won't be having this discussion but the current Chelsea lacks that quality, they can't keep a good ball possession, can't make complete passes and the upfront there's no biting striker that puts tension and fear in defenders like in the days of Didier Drogba. Arsenal are in one of their top form in the EPL counting last season and this season and they are in top three of the team's picked as favourite EPL title winners in this season of which they have been convincive about that with the results they have been getting in all their matches. But then what can we speak of Chelsea if lucky doesn't shine on them because by performance they can't beat arsenal in this Derby match next Saturday.

Gambling will be so fun and effortless for us to deal with if we can just understand how to go about it by peacefully accepting the defeat on our unlucky days by just walking away as quick as you can before you get to lose more. Any gambler reading this would be in same wavelength with me that there have been days they have had streaks of winnings effortlessly without them doing so much of a hard work on the games.And that's why on days when we're having losses we should also cease from chasing those losses thinking we can recover them because if it were that possible to recovering the loss you wouldn't have made the loss from the very first bets when you initially started. Taking a break at that point  is your best shot and not by  either increasing your wager or style of bets.

The London derby between Chelsea and Arsenal has been of a big interest to fans of both clubs over the years and this season's encounter isn't gonna be an exception.
Arsenal are currently on an impressive run as they're yet to lose a league game since the start of the season unlike their London rivals Chelsea who are currently sitting in the 11th position with just 11 points having already lost three matches this season. Chelsea however has convincingly won their last two League games and that I think gives the players of the team a belief that they can actually beat Arsenal next week Saturday. The game is slated to be played at Stamford Bridge the home of Chelsea and that makes it more interesting as Chelsea would want to be the first team to defeat Arsenal in the English Premier League this season.

1110  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gender in Gambling [differences between Women and Men in Gambling] on: October 14, 2023, 08:02:53 PM
Aside the fact that women don't personally like gambling, there are other factors like religious or cultural believes that prohibits women participation in gambling or even some sporting activities as the cultural or political law of some countries may states, though we cannot count on this as denial on human rights but just a way to honour women with such a high prestige and esteem in the society.
If we relate religious or cultural factors then gambling activities are still prohibited regardless of gender, but if we talk about countries that have regulated gambling there are no special rules that prohibit gambling based on gender, it's just that the percentage of women involved in gambling is very low because they are not interested gambling. However, women as treasurers for managing family finances are advised not to get involved in gambling. Women gain confidence in managing finances because women are very responsible for every expense. So without comparing equality in gambling, but to be honest I hope that women don't gamble too often because they will have a harder time getting out of the influence of gambling addiction compared to men.
When we want to discuss something as sensitive and gender-based discussions, I try as much as possible to take out religion and politics out of the way to enable me to make more informed and open-minded contributions, because if religion prohibits an act it should be binding on all members of the society be it male or female and more also you have to make sure that the same law applies to all and there shouldn't be any reservation in terms of who the law for most.


Women does not like taking high risk and gambling is considered as one of such high-risk events, and also gambling is not women's so for that the male forks dominated the gambling market heavily to the point that they now view gambling as only a male activity.
I would say that male dominating the gambling space is probably born out of sports, we and every one of us will come to the agreement that sports has always been a male dominated space, it is only of recent, like some few years back that, women started making their ways into sports, which i personally believe to be the reason why today, we even have some women doing gambling.

So, for me, i would say that maybe one of the reasons why we have low number of women in gambling is because of the above, that is, that it is in recent times that women started getting involved in sporting events, and if be the case, i would say that, maybe as women sports grows further as the future progresses, we might see an increase in the number of women gamblers.

  You made a striking point talking about women in sports as catalyst to their recent growing interest in gambling which is very true if we check the history of sport and gambling altogether. Even with the just concluded 2023  FIFA women's world cup at different times I hand the free-time from work to go watch any of the live match in one of the football viewing centres close to my location I discover a lot of men sitted watching these football matches played by female footballers more than their female counterparts. Over 100% you see just about 5% of women watching these games.

Now this explains so we'll why women can't be heavily involved in gambling as men contingent on the fact that they don't have interest in sport activities like men do and it's only when you're sport lover that you can have a burner to extend that love to gambling taking advantage of it to try and make money out of it. It therefore makes sense saying women don't gamble because they are not much into sports that should lure them into gambling rather than saying it's because gambling is a male thing and not mainly meant for women.
1111  Economy / Economics / Re: Europe unemployment rate hits record low, employment record up on: October 14, 2023, 05:05:45 AM

Can't wait to see the usual Russian muppets trying to twist this as being bad!
Great news coming from Europe. When the UK left the EU there were different predictions of the adverse consequences it will have on the European economy, but it survived it. There were also predictions that the European economy will collapse because of the gas and oil crisis caused by the Russian invasion of Ukraine, but it has continued to grow stronger. There is also this rumor that the introduction of a common currency by BRICS will give a big blow to the Euro, we are still waiting for the new currency. The European economy has proved to be one of the strongest in the world.

Apart from fighting on the battlefield, there is always political, social, and economic war during conflicts. The European and the Russian propaganda machines are at work using various means to attack the economy of each other. We shouldn't also forget that NATO nations predicted that the Russian economy will not survive the economic sanctions for more than six months.
Was marveling like what would the Russian media have to say about this if giving the podium and same applies to the EU media what do you think would be their statement following the whole argument ?

Whatsoever they have got to say would be in the interest of the side they are a proponent to and what then. Yeah what then if not from one political and economic propaganda to another and it keeps going on and on that we can't even see when anyone of these two blocs are actually making progress to be applauded or not.  Unemployment is a universal sickness pillage all parts of the world and for what is worth every little effort put forward by any government of a people to cushion the effect should be applauded or appreciated while waiting for a bigger picture of it.
1112  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin Is Better Than Digital Gold on: October 14, 2023, 04:38:47 AM
Actually gold is a consider more precious than anything from past therefore nothing can take place of it. I agreed that bitcoin is also providing passive income to lots of people but popularity of gold is more than bitcoin.

I'd argue that if bitcoin was around as long as gold it would be much more popular.
We really can't compare these things if people used one of them as money and store of value for centuries an and the other one is known for less than 15 years.
The skeptism a whole lot of people have towards bitcoin when compared to gold is that the digital asset hasn't been here for a long time as gold has served in decades as a measure of wealth. If you seek my opinion I will say bitcoin is still in it's testing stage for many people unlike gold, and that's we have more people that can conveniently settle for gold without giving a fuck about uncertainty because of the trust it has built for itself over decades to centuries and bitcoin is just getting started so I don't blame when people preferably give gold the preference they do when comparing it with bitcoin and for BTC to earn it despite the value it has possessed within a decade it gonna take many decades more.

So I'm asking if it will be good to show any of your family person your seed phrase or should we keep having the secret of your seed phrase personal.
I have two choices about this and this choice's also depends on the individual as he would want it.

1. The first choice which has already been giving by the first commenter which is about the use of locktime mechanism so your posterity can have access whenever you are gone unexpectedly.

2. This second choice has to do with trust, which is a rare commodity. If you trust a family member so damn we'll be it your daughter or son and you wouldn't want them to wait for years due to a locktime after you're gone before having access  to your asset you can reveal your seed phrase to that very child.

 Reasons behind this choice is that my children don't have to be suffering facing financial hardship for the next 5 years or more after am long gone before they start enjoying my wealth depending on how many million blocks I set-up for my locktime encryption.

Display and visibility do play a major role, no matter if it is related to playing gambling games or display of the gambling site signatures across multiple platforms.

Usually, gamblers will prefer to gamble on desktop devices or laptops and may not want to gamble on mobile devices due to their small screen. It sometimes becomes difficult to focus while gambling on a mobile phone and that is the main reason why we see gambling sites not much interested in the development of their gambling site apps.
You are sure of having a better user experience with the gambling site themes and features while using a laptop or desktop campared to using a mobile phone certain features may look unappealing but with a laptop the difference in quality is normally clear. The convenience with gambling using a laptop is something that any gambling that started his gambling journey with the use of laptop won't gamble with much interest if he has to use a mobile phone later on and that's why many gamblers would prefer the use of laptop to phone despite that with phone you can gamble at any spot you find yourself since it's mobile and handy in size to a laptop.
1116  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Winning Wisely: Strategies to Protect Your Bankroll on: October 13, 2023, 06:52:53 PM
when you are stuck in between the decision of continuing with the gambling or to stop after getting a winning that's when you will acknowledge your level of discipline by the decision you took in that instant.

Gambling victory can never be sufficient it's the person that will determine the sufficiency but when we place our problem on the amount we have won and the problem outweighs it double that's when we easily give in to  the greed to try another bet again to  increase the winning amount get a sufficient amount that can solve our problem. And this decision to continue is usually followed by drastic losing leaving you with no penny at all. Greed in gambling is consuming and it's necessary  gamblers learn  to defeat their greed in such circumstance.
It is best if they have succeeded in winning at gambling, they should immediately decide to stop gambling and leave the casino so that there is no temptation for them to continue gambling. Many have returned to gambling, but instead of getting another win, they only experienced loss, and many of them lost all their money, including their winnings. It was so sad for them that they could only think that it was a mistake to have continued gambling even though if they had stopped gambling at that time, they would have been able to withdraw the money and celebrate with their closest people and friends. But everything has happened, and now, they lost all their money at once.
Yeah staying yet at the gambling house for example when you have decided not to continue gambling but you still sitting down there just to spend some time, you would be tempted to gamble again as you see other gamblers gambling and making their winnings but when you stop and also leave the environment you will never have to face the temptation of continuing again. According to a popular belief that gambling has a spirit and if as a gambler you ain't careful you will lose control of standing firm on your decisions.
1117  Local / Politics and society (Naija) / Re: Four Lucrative businesses you can start in Nigeria on: October 13, 2023, 04:26:47 PM
I've you ever been in a situation wey you dey  think which business to do with money wey just enter your hand?Like better money enter your hand but you don't know what business to do with it.

I want to tell you all 4 correct businesses wey you fit use am do wey go yield better profit at the end.

1: Fish farming or Poultry farming: The demand for food product na constant thing. As  the population dey grow na so the demand for food too  they increase. You can start with a plastic tank or tarpaulin for the fish farming. You can also rent ponds from people. There are people that have ponds they rent out for fish farming purpose . The profit in fish farming is huge. Na my parent business be this so I know what they make from it.

2: Mobile money AKA POS business: money dey for pos business, no look am say e no dey. Just get a good location and the place  busy. Pos business provides convenience to a lot of people that don't want go through bank hassle.  I am among the first people who started the POS business before it became a global thing 😃. I made a lot of money, and I am still doing it.

3: online business( E-commerce) With the increase social media engagement, starting online store by selling various products is very lucrative. You fit sell shoes, clothes or anyone of your choice. The reason I love this one, you don't need to rent a physical store, people go dey see your product online. Just make sure say your product are of good qualities and deliver to your customer on time.

4: Buy properties people can rent from you like canopies, chairs, table, curtains, costumes etc. You can be renting these properties out to people that have parties or occasion and be making your cool cash. You know say party na sure thing, whether na birthday, wedding ceremony and even burial. People will need all these for the party.

All these businesses are lucrative in Nigeria, However the success of any business requires careful planning, market research and commitment.

If you have other businesses, you can also drop them here so we can see as well.
Among the four businesses wey you tok of nah only for the POS business nah me I no go advise person to do again if him to an do business, cos PoS business don too much for any corner you match leg you go see like five POS business stand wey line up, nah befor befor nah PoS business been dey lucrative wit profit now de profit no dey again as bfor. I get guy wey don dey into PoS for year but now him dey complain say profit no dey again lik wen him been start PoS as pipul don full inside de business.

But for the oda three dem nah nice business to do if the person get knowledge about am and even if you no get knowledge you gat still learn am if you get passion for am. If me to pick anyone to do nah that fishery and poultry farming I go do, de business de pay well well, now wey pipol focus nah to see food chop nah only person wey dey into business of tins to chop nah fit get steady sure profit. And e no get season becos human being no de get season to chop food.
1118  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Winning Wisely: Strategies to Protect Your Bankroll on: October 13, 2023, 10:34:08 AM
I only know one thing for a gambler to play wisely: when he wins between $30 and $50, maybe it's a warning to stop; don't try to continue, because what frequently happens to those who continue even after winning is that they finally lose. Numerous gamblers have experienced this numerous times.
There times I stop  from continually gambling for the day immediately I make my first win irrespective of the amount won I'll just stop never try to continue with another bet and adjoin my gambling to the next day and each periods I do so it aids me in prolonging the time frame for my bankroll before it could get exhausted. Sometimes gamblers should be wise to discontinue with gambling for the day if they just got a win either at their first bet or made a win after been subjected to a few losses. The wisdom there is that you don't go home with an exhausted pocket or a completely emptied account. You still have a sum left to start with the next day.
It's good if you can stop after getting your first win. That can remind us to realize that we won't be able to win too often. We must be able to stop after winning whatever the amount. And if they continue gambling, they may lose again, which could be a big loss that will cost them all their money. Moreover, we know that gambling will not give us easy wins, so we must be aware of it. It's a good idea not to go home empty-handed because when we've managed to win some money, we've managed to get it, and it's time for us to go home.
But to be very honest It's not that easy ending the gambling just like that for that very day, it really demands great discipline to usually stick to the idea as there are occasions I get carried away by my own enthusiasm in the game and snob the thought of stopping since I have managed to get  a win.  It's as if I turn out to become my own obstacle to my subscribed idea. Lol.  Nevertheless, if we're able to keep to standards we have created  to guide our conduct, behavior and decisions on how we would handle our gambling life it will earn us a healthy gambling lifestyle.

One thing I have noticed about gambling is that when you finally make a winning, there will be different thought in you whether to continue gambling to earn more or stop and go home. Sometimes we might think that the amount we have won is not good enough since we might have make loses in other bets and the winning we have might not be sufficient when we make substraction from it.

This is how greed comes in and we can as well end up losing that profit we had made because we do not have a good financial discipline to help us and guide us through unnecessary mistakes like this. It is good we have a plan which is going to guide us through our gambling journey.
Some win, some lose. And the excitement you get when you win! It's very thrilling! But suddenly the ideas begin to flow... Should I continue? Shall I give up? Can we really win now? Particularly when you consider previous setbacks. Isn't it similar to a loop?

I can recall feeling the same way once following a respectable victory. Because of past setbacks, the victory didn't feel sufficient. Greed is a sneaky thing. Additionally, it is simple to slip into its trap if one lacks sound financial discipline. It's not fun, I promise; I've been there. It is imperative, very imperative, to have a plan. A strategy that directs and stabilizes you. Though it should be enjoyable, gambling can result in regret if it is not done responsibly. Thus, make a plan and follow it at all times
when you are stuck in between the decision of continuing with the gambling or to stop after getting a winning that's when you will acknowledge your level of discipline by the decision you took in that instant.

Gambling victory can never be sufficient it's the person that will determine the sufficiency but when we place our problem on the amount we have won and the problem outweighs it double that's when we easily give in to  the greed to try another bet again to  increase the winning amount get a sufficient amount that can solve our problem. And this decision to continue is usually followed by drastic losing leaving you with no penny at all. Greed in gambling is consuming and it's necessary  gamblers learn  to defeat their greed in such circumstance.

Wether it's been supported by the central or local authority it can only mean two things, which are;

1. To persons that are into gambling already it may be a reminder of why  that they shouldn't give themselve's to addiction as they  gamble. But telling them gambling is bad is something am not sure will penetrate fine into their hearings.
Despite the government responsibility regarding prohibitions and also education for gambling, not single person who likes to gamble will care about such prohibitions even with festival events showing several impacts and knowledge to stop they still cannot think that all of this is important because what they think most about is just continuing to gamble without caring about anything.
I not really sure that things like this can provide awareness and understanding so that every gambling addict can stop or limit the gambling activities they have started.

2.It's invariably serves as a broadcast, an advertisement or publicity to the knowledge of those group of people in that very society who haven't had a thought about gambling. This parade can ignite their curiosity to try it out for the first time and see how it seems like and then from their they've added to the already existing number of gamblers that exist there. 
So that the real worry where parade like that will create curiosity among people who don't know about gambling and what worse in every parade there are always children who are also watching so it can trigger desire to try gambling carried out by minors.
Maybe the purpose of the parade is quite good and can provide education but there is still risk that someone might get involved in gambling..
An approach to avoid the risk of minors from exercising their youthful exuberance on experimenting what this gambling they are hearing about through the parades how it feels like is by changing the parade approach of educating people about gambling and turning it to a concert or a symposium lecture in stadium or a spacious field that only adults of gambling age should be allowed to have access in and people should be encouraged to attend through some fun filled features that will be performed in the course of the educational lecture against gambling addiction. This will effectively bar children/minors from having a triggered desire for gambling at their stage. Just my thought though.

I personally take bitcoin as a store of value even though that's not the primary purpose of Satoshi creating the coin. But as a store of value to retain the value of my money when compared to how many years I have left same money in a traditional bank account without added interest instead the fiat value keeps depreciating. When inwrap this thought around me head I don't see any reason why I should feel tired of holding bitcoin no matter how long the next bull market delays it better than having it rest in a bank losing value that never appreciates. Onthink about it that way and keep holding never getting tired.
Maybe because you feel confident that there is nothing to wait for, but that is different from people who invest and want profits, especially by planning a certain time to take advantage.
But, I think what you are doing is full of risk, the price of Bitcoin moves quickly and it is possible for price shifts to occur at any time, so if Bitcoin is used as storage there will be many possibilities that could happen.
and I think feeling tired of waiting is a very common thing and certainly many of us have experienced that.
Why should I put my money somewhere and feel confident that there's nothing to wait for pertaining that money? It's very simple to digest, and this is it, when you make your own plans on when to take profit from your bitcoin investment you forgot to also consider that the market price may come up with its own plan clearly different from yours. That's why when we plan we should be flexible in our plans in considering other factors that may rise leading to a delay in our own plans being reach at the stipulated time.

At the instant we decided to invest in bitcoin or any cryptocurrency we assumed risk and each person must choice the risk they want. Maybe this sort of risk I have chosen to take is due to the trust I have on bitcoin that I'll make profit if only I can keep waiting.
