I don't want to sound pessimistic but 50k is a huge price and see I know the price will rise but the rise that happened over previous years was very sharp and quick because adoption rate was higher but now heavy adoption already took place and now slowly the value of bitcoins will increase I believe and 50k might take at least 2-3 years in my opinion.

That is what a lot of guys do but instead of 25k they did it at 6k when price earlier this year dropped and created mayhem among investors and traders but smart guys bought a big number of bitcoins that time and well rewarded for their trust. The market is funny one who panics loses his coins to one who has faith.

Someone as experienced as you and who has 1400+ posts on forum I am really surprised why do you reply the same post twice in consecutive posts because you can easily give one answer and since you are replying to the same post. Please avoid this in future because this is normally considered as spam and not something appreciated by anyone.

You might have a point actually and there is always a positive movement in the charts around late every year in Q4. But this time I feel like the price is going up for a reason and this might be because the investors are coming back into crypto after selling it earlier this year when everyone suffered and a lot of investors sold their assets to maintain their fiat portfolios and now they are getting back into action.

Different airdrops have different requirements and the basic aim of an airdrop is to send some free coins to interested people but they require some work to be done like one may give out coins for just posting your coin address and name while some may ask you to link your social media and this is also done to ensure that participants are not cheating because abusing of an airdrop is common.

I call them bounty if they require you to fulfill a particular task. Campaigns and airdrops are similar actually but the only difference is that while campaigns have a strict task you need to perform but airdrops are usually only to connect your social accounts or fill a small form and get your coins. Also airdrop coins are fixed but bounty campaigns payment usually varies from user to user based on how well they perform the task given to them.

That's really strange because if the rules allow you to trade bitcoins for other coins then surely you should be able to spend the coins anywhere you want. I mean at the end of all trades how are you going to cash your bitcoins for cash then?

I would never suggest using a VPN for accessing an exchange because you are moving towards the illegal side of crypto and it can be troubling if the authorities find that you are doing something like that and even the exchange can block your withdrawals at any instant if they detect VPN.

I think if you purchase a dedicated VPN though you might easily be able to bypass any scrutiny from the exchange because VPNs are usually detected because of their common IP addresses.

Anyways I would still never advise using VPN to access any exchange that does not allow users from your country.

Well, when the market was new it was actually possible to see the market swings and notice why those swings are happening but now that the market is so diverse and big it is actually impossible to predict the price and even the direction of the flow of market.

But, predicting it both ways is a bad idea to be honest because if you predict it both ways how would you even make your trades? I mean you buy bitcoins when you think the price is going to go down and you put sell orders when you think the price is going down in coming wave. If you predict both ways you are actually playing the wait game, so you wait for the market to go up or down and you react accordingly.

Indeed and these apps are not going to pay as much as some of the bitcoin based faucets can give if one wants to farm. Jokes apart, I really wonder how much these apps pay if anyone can use them and make a list of their average pay and revenue in a week or month.

The only app mentioned I have heard about is Google Opinion Rewards and I can seriously vouch for them but remember they ask you to complete survey and a lot of times you will be disqualified in the middle of the survey based on the answers you give. If they require people from 25-30 age to proceed and you enter 30-35 slab then you get disqualified so don't get your hopes too high yet. But they pay and I have been paid so I can confidently say that.

Most of us seek freedom, but if given that freedom, we are going to do worse than what the government has done now.
Imagine a world where people are having that kind of freedom in everything ?? People will be committing crimes and doing it without fear of any laws that will stop or punish them for whatever wrong they have done.

Even with the government and the rules and regulations being set in place there are still those that are misbehaving and disobeying the rules. All we need is a better government, and to speak up for ourselves, because one thing for sure is that the government will not give us that kind of freedom that some of us seek.

Yeah I had same thoughts; with the recent hacks and everything that has been happening, people must have felt that exchanges wouldn’t be a good choice for them to be storing their assets. From the start exchanges has never been a good place to store cryptocurrency assets, if you do and eventually the exchange gets hacked and is unable to pay back for what was lost, you will just lose your assets like that without compensation or whatsoever.

If you have plans to leave them on an exchange then it has to be an exchange that has insurance, that way you’re sure that your money is safe in case of such.

Indeed and new ownership means the company would be putting more efforts and promotions probably to attract more users. I think they should open a thread in the auctions section maybe if they are really serious about selling selling their platform and they might find a lot of interested buyers.

I have never played here so I don't know how good the website and how many users play but really a running casino with decent number of players should be easy to sell or maybe have a partnership with someone and they can share revenue or something like that.

I really do not like flashbets, considering in the long run the house edge takes away from your profit one by one, it really makes no sense to rush that, I do enjoy autobet when I am tired and I just end up watching it, which is still a bit of fun but it is not too fast so I just watch it like a regular gambling but if I have the time for it I try to manually bet each time which gives me the most fun.

However everyone has their own thing of course, maybe I do not get the idea of flashbets and how they could be fun but you might find something very entertaining with it, after all having 2k+ bets per second is a very speedy way of gambling and your idea of fun is to gamble as much as possible as quickly as possible? I don't know, everyone has their own way of having fun so I can't judge a method just because I prefer another.

Because of the nature of these coins anyone can make them and there is basically no way to stop these coins from coming into the market and as long as these coins keep coming there will always be some investors who will invest and hence this cycle is not going to stop. Although investors have become more strict and you might see that a lot of ICOs are not able to fill their softcap which means that it is not easy to fool the investors now and there needs to be some serious workplan and roadmap to get the investors.

I believe now as we have move towards the defi hype we will see a dry patch for ICOs as everyone is now moving towards Defi and even fake and scam projects are being built in the name of Defi which is again seeming like a new ICO market has opened in the name of Defi projects.

I doubt that it would be like that this time around, even though we are moving like it happens right now but I just do not think that history repeats itself in crypto world. I have said this when people talk about December, in 2017 December we went up a lot and I mean a lot and in 2018 December we went down to 3k by that time, why do people only focus on the December 2017 and think that we will go up when there is 2018 that we could go down? It would be unique December each year that has been the case ever since.

So, why would it be any different when we are talking about yearly cycles? 3 years or 4 years or 5 years doesn't matter whatever happened in the past has already happened and I do not think that it will happen again and again forever every 3-4 years, that is not sustainable.

Especially given the volatility of the crypto market as the coin you buy now might become dust by the next morning and it might make you a billionaire too so it is just too risky to put big amount of capital. If you are buying to buy bitcoins and do things like day trading then maybe you can risk it because the price for bitcoins doesn't scare to go down all too much.

It also depends on whether you are buying new tokens which yield high profits but also bring a risk of higher losses or if you are investing and trading solid altcoins like ETH, TRX, XRP etc which won't give too big of returns but then there is small risk of losing too.

Exactly and a fast mover doesn't make mistakes to learn from them instead he watches others make mistakes and learn from them. If you start learning with only your own mistakes then soon you will end up having so much loss that you cannot ever recover it.

I cannot think of a professional trader in our crypto community because people who are experts will never do any kind of marketing instead they keep earning themselves and it is hard to find a trusted source for advice or training and those guys on youtube are all idiots.

Yeah and a lot of people are not aware of the fact that the trading exchange is just a medium and people create buy and sell orders so it is not the exchange who is determining the price for any coin and they just earn commissions on each trade so they don't have to scam anyone in my opinion.

You rightly said one must trade at Binance and other giant exchanges but really the truth is that even trading there won't change your financial loss you had on previous exchange because it is not the exchange's fault if you are bad at trading instead it is time to realize that you need to learn about trading and better exchange will only secure that your profits are safe but the procedure remains the same for all exchanges.

I would say almost all coins increase when there is a bull run, bull run comes together for all crypto and not just few of them which is why when there is a bull run in crypto world you will see 99% of them go up. Obviously there will be some scam coins or shitcoins that will not go up, they will probably go down even on the best of days, but when you have 99% going up you can't just claim that some of them goes down, that is too little to care.

This is the reason why if you could build a portfolio of 10 of trusted and truly decentralized and has been around at least 3+ years coins with only 2 coins that you want to risk it, you could probably make a great return when a bull comes around. Those 10 that everyone likes and trusts will go up, whereas the 2 risky ones may make it big or may go down but the losses would be minimal since they are low on number.

3rd of November has a lot of senate elections as well, you are not voting just for the president, you are voting for senate seat as well and even though it is not all of them, there is enough of them to change the seat to democrat as well.

Looking at the current situation in the senate races there is really not that much change looking like it could happen, unfortunately senate is distributed equally to states and not population, so fuck with nowhere has similar amount of power and they are more in number of states so they can still outscore democrats to this day even though they are nowhere near close to amount of votes when you look at the total votes cast.

In any case we are looking for close number of senate between two parties and if president does an executive order, republicans will need 2/3 to decline something and they don't have that so Biden can do whatever he wants and republicans will not be able to stop him. Right now democrats can't do what they want because if it comes from house or senate republican majority and republican president can stop it, but when president is democrat that ends.

Tron is actually the best currency to use for gambling right now in my opinion because there is low/no fees and the confirmations happen at lightening fast speed so it is always the best coin for me when I am gambling specially when I plan to deposit small and have fun. I also see a lot of guys lately using Tron and it is getting famous with time because of the fast confirms and fees problems solved.

I also feel like I am lucky when I gamble with Trx for some reason as you can see a small slice of luck from my old bets


I haven't much lately on PD because I have reached better VIP level on stake and so I get rakeback now on stake .

Yeah, but there are 50x $1000 prizes too and I have my eyes set on one of those because expecting to win a Lambo might be too good to be true with 25 tickets but surely I can snatch a $1000 prize as there are going to be 50 winners and I remember Edward removes the person once they win. So, like once a player wins any reward he cannot win again and that gives us small players a good chance in the later stages of the draw.

Eddie is known to make some funny and scary faces during streams and I am curious what kind of a face he will make  ( this one maybe ) when the Lambo winner is drawn because really this is historic and something really never done before by any crypto casino from my experience and knowledge.

Ethereum is the top choice for me. To start with, it’s the second most popular cryptocurrency that everyone knows today, even if you’re not investing in Ethereum, you probably might have heard of it. The next thing is that it has one of the biggest liquidity in the market.

Apart from that Ethereum is like the biggest altcoin because of the platform that it created for a lot of projects to be able to launch on it (ERC-20), this has created so many opportunities for other projects that can’t afford to be building their own Blockchain and all that, it made things easier. Then there is ETH 2.0 that is on the way. I think for me these are enough points already to choose Ethereum, and it still has more to offer in other areas.
