I think the last week or two is proof that ETH has a pretty solid foothold right now. Having an extended DDOS attack which resulted in (yet another) fork, and the release of a competitor (Zcash) causing total chaos for the markets, I was actually surprised the price of Ethereum didn't lose more. News like this could also be a positive sign that the sky isn't falling for Vitalik Buterin and friends. http://www.coindesk.com/microsoft-launching-new-ethereum-blockchain-product/Article about Microsoft using Ethereum in some projects. Thanks for the update, it made me decide to buy Ethereum now, the price is cheap and the price of bitcoin is falling. Whatever happens, I still believe in the trend and I has not been broken way back. Let's go ETH!!! To the sky, anyway, thanks for the good news. |

Gambling is illegal in our country but I can gamble using bitcoin, so I am using bitcoin for illegal activity specifically gambling. Big question,
Who will arrest me then?
It will depends if your government banned gambling online and in physical casinos or in any kind of gambling, authorities will arrest you in your country of course. And because of that people in your country will say that bitcoin is used for illegal activities specially in gambling. And to OP of course it does, bitcoin is a kind of currency, and all currency can use in any illegal activities. They do ban gambling actually but because of bitcoin there's no way they can control us and they would not know that we are gambling. That's the benefits of using bitcoin if you are a gambler because you have all the way to enjoy as with bitcoin it is very fast and you can gamble anytime you want. |

Indeed, bitcoin price does matter because many users are attached with bitcoin.
Many users loves bitcoin, many users always checking the value of bitcoin.
As we all know bitcoin is currently increasing its price, and many users are
happy with it because they earn huge profit of bitcoin.
arguably many users love bitcoin because they benefit from the rising price of bitcoin. can mean the importance of bitcoin prices for users itself The price does not rise all the time and that is bitcoin, we are not all investors here as there are also people who uses their bitcoin to gamble and to buy stuff online. I believe of the total users of bitcoin, only few are into investing and the majority are here to spend and treat bitcoin as currency. |

Any business that is successful and bring profit to both owners and workers/members is great.
If only company owners/admins can make money, and all others loose money, like in online casinos, such business can't be good.
I plan to start online advertising business and accept Bitcoin as payment option.
All members will benefit from this business, even free members.
I don't know if this is the best bTC business to create but I believe it will be good business, any way.
Your idea of online advertising and accepting bitcoins as payment is good. This could be a good primer for an online business in bitcoins. It could be a way of generating bitcoins and also trading could be added to this idea. It's good to have different option of business so you also have different opportunity to make money. The best way to make money here which is very common is through trading and investing and I have been doing it since it does not require a lot of skills to do to be able to succeed in this journey. |

Trading is risky and quick profit is like gambling! I advise you buy some promising altcoins, which are cheap now and it is a good time to invest to them! Please do your own research before making your decision!
Hi. Thanks for this info. I am also into trading, though, it is risky. I'll just put some amount into this. Play with the circle of the trade. Yes, do research first before risking money. I am wondering if where did you buy some promising altcoins? You can check in to the altcoins section, for sure you will get the right information there. But I will give you a heads up on what coins are good to buy. Try to check, XMR, ETH, LSK, and WAVES, they are cheap now so it's an opportunity you should not miss. |

If you have good amount of money and want to get some profit using that money then investing is better and only way to go for. Gambling is not good as everyone can not make money from it. Some people can even loose without seeing profit of a penny even. Investing is much better with little risk without doing anything by yourself. It is like money work for you.
You are right, gambling is meant for entertainment, adrenaline and emotions, it can't be a source of profit because it's unpredictable and has negative expected value for a player. There's no easy money anywhere, you need to work if you want to earn for sure. That's what the gambling sites are trying to tell us. They want us to be entertainment so even if we lose our money we are still gonna be happy and of course when we are willing to lose just to enjoy they are also happy making profit. It's the system in the gambling world and no one can change that. No gambling sites are forcing anyone to go and gamble. It up to gamblers whether they want to gamble or not, if you worry about losing or spending money on gambling games then you should avoid the paid games and find some other free games to get your enjoyment. Gambling houses are doing their business to make profits for them but not for gamblers. They don't force us but they attract us to gamble so still they are not doing bad. The number of gamblers are many so gambling sites are very happy to take our money while we enjoy but there are some gambling sites who give us the chance to make money by investing in their site. |

Oklahoma City Thunders 43 - Golden State Warriors 68
HALFTIME Kevin Durant with big 29 points at the halftime. Russel Westbrook on the other hand leads his team mates with 12 points. What's worst here is his 3 out of 13 fgm. Looks like Thunders will suffer their first loss this season. And still looking forward for more points in the next following quarter. Over 220+ points still has decent chance to happen. Yeah it's looking like a blow out win for the Golden State Warriors which isn't good for me as I have OKC at =10.5 point spread which I really thought they would cover. For the people that put a bet on 220+ total points it's looking good just as long as OKC keep scoring as well. Not looking good as we are in the 4th quarter and it's a blow out game so this game will be slow as hell. I feel sorry for the people who bet for the hype of over.. If they lose but if they win, what more can I say but congratulation. Let's enjoy the game, it's not over yet. |

Bitcoin is up and ETH is down. That's what happen all the time, the trend is always like that.
I may jump fast once the price of bitcoin starts to fall, but for now, I have to enjoy the big price of bitcoin and watch closely the price of ETH. I believe if I will jump now, it will already guarantee a profit but I want more so I need to be a little patient.

You can ask yourself because if you will ask me it's going to be a long list. We can make money and earn base on our passion and interest and since we are unique individual, we do not have the same interest. It's like not all people can easily make money in trading unlike some does.
Learn your skills by knowing yourself and when you know what your skills are that's the time to invest with it.
Most of the successful person follows their passion or interest.I we are happy in what we are doing,nurture it,surely money will come. Honed your skills,do what you like to do and within time you will be expert in your field.Once you are popular,you will never in desperate need of money. That's why they go out of their comfort zone and they start their own business. That is my ambition that I want to achieve in the future, I want to be the boss of my own and my decision will the only one that matters. I have been in desperate need of money while working only due to the salary that is not enough for a big family of mine. |

In my opinion gambling becomes addiction because of if i have been losing it make me curious and that is make me addiction of gambling.
It drags me to gamble too, but also important reason why i and other gamblers gamble is because they can earn a lot of money this way even if it's risky to chase the losing money in previous bets are one of many reason why. gambling addicting also due the way you get fun and get money so easy ( when you win ) an addiction always come from an excessive activity , the same applies to gambling. don't gamble too often and always control your bankroll you would get addicted too quick maybe.. Yeah, that is right.. Are you speaking on behalf of your experience? I guess we gamblers have chase our loses sometimes and some called it a martingale method which eventually turns to matinfail method. LOL.. Life in gambling  |

Sports bets is gambling. Rare events could happen one mention,the Qb Steelers was injured in the game vs Dolphins.
This event it cause the Dolphins won by wide margin against Steelers in his own House.
so do you think that it is gambling if you know a certain result  i do not know about this mentioned rare event but one thing i know is if you have the capability to know the locker room news then it would really help when it comes to sports betting. I do not believe in that kind of news, there's only one way to win sports betting in the long run. The method is pretty simple that anyone would hate to follow. "Fade yourself" why? Because you tend to make a wrong decision in gambling and that's how the odd makers set the lines. |

Gambling isn't made for kids there is no question as they should concentrate on their studies and career. Instead of doing gamble for extra activities better participate in some sports physically that will be helpful for health and relaxation. Gambling will put full stop at creativeness and will make their thoughts limited to gambling.
Yes you are right that gambling is not for kids. Besides gambling requires a bet and that takes money. Kids can not have their own money because they still depend on their parents, so gambling is not made for kids. I do not know what the impact caused when kids play gambling, there must be a clear negative impact that could affect the quality of life. Kids will steal money from their parents if they want to gamble. They should not learn how to gamble if the parents want to have a peace of mind for their kids, when the problem gets bigger it would be hard to solve the problem then, so better monitor our kids and never let them learn gambling. |

I always ask my self why trusted casinos never heavily advertise about investing in their site since they have a decent roi rate?
Because they don't have to. Looking for new investors will just lessen their share in the total profit of the website. They're already earning money and they want to keep it to themselves. Most gambling sites also have rich investors right from the start. That's how they have established everything, by getting a help from a rich investor. They don't need to look for some more online because they're website is already well funded. Then why leave the opportunity to invest if basically everything is established?  I think that any external investment is good for the casino. Even due to the fact that increases Bankroll - which attracts more players with a bigger wallet. Most of the online gambling business specially those who have dice games does not start with a bigger capital as the risk is always there. Hence, they offer an investment program to divide the risk and in that way, they have more profit compared to the investor and they have lesser risk as well. The only gambling site that I know that are big and does not accept investment is primedice. |

There are several steps that can help in financial management. I think it's important to have savings, as this can help you in unexpected situations, but for that you need to save money, and it's only possible by cutting spending.
It is really important to have savings as that is your way to success. A person who does not know how to save will never be successful unless he is too lucky to win in gambling, we need to have savings for our future expenses and investment and we can do that if we learn to sacrifice our wants and focus only on our needs. |

Westbrook is really a good player and Thunder with Westbrook will still a playoff team and hard to beat but in getting a ring, I dont think so. As of now, if you want a ring you need to ateast team up with 1-2 superstar. Even having a team mate superstar is still hard to get a ring then how come if he is only one. But still he can carry the team to the playoffs. Kudos.
Still very early to tell although this kid has potential. What I am doing lately, is I am betting on westbrook in every game and since they have a perfect record I have a perfect record as well. Hope they will still cover tomorrow against the Warriors or if possible to win. Give the warriors their 2nd loss at home so fans will no longer watch. LOL |

This title is not 100% correct, it should be "the house is always in profit". Mathematically speaking, there is a probability to be profitable in the long run, and some players actually are, but the house will be in profit, because more people will lose in the long run than win.
You could be right because the house does not win all the time if you will understand it literally. What I know is the house has all the advantage and they are due to win in the long run, and as a gambler we are experience the complete opposite side as we lose in the long run. The system design to win thats the goal besides they will not make this business if they will keep allowing gamblers to win but sometimes whales also got a chance to win and make the house loses in the other side. Obviously, they wanted as to lose.. The more they lose the bigger they will make profit, so they do not care if we will go broke as long as they become richer. That's a business and when you are in a business, your main intention is to make a profit. |

When in playing a gambling, emotions took place. You know
it is the problem in gambling controlling your temper. What Im
doing is I let aside my emotions so I can aim a win or success.
This is very hard to control as we all can be bring up our emotions easily especially when we are losing as we gamble. But as early as before you gamble you must need to control yourself and if you have watched the movie of "Three idiots" remember the saying, "all is well" and for sure this is going to make you calm. Sometimes i can control since greediness is a nature for all humans. but if you thinking for the first play that you are just halving fun well i think you can be greed and you can be addicted.. just set your time or how much you can afford to lose.. sometimes it can result of angry if you always lose until you lose a lot of money so better to stop if you can not control your temper.. It's a different story for me, when I play for fun I do not become greedy because I just easy let go of my loses but still I have fun in the end. It is only when I gamble for fun that I do become greedy sometimes and when I win in the start most of the time I lose in the end. It's hard to gamble when you are greedy of money as you will be victim of your own action. How can anyone be greedy if he just play for fun, I guess when you play for fun you are not after for the money and what you are after is more on the entertainment, I have been gambling for many years and I can say it's good to gamble for fun as no stress at all. That is certainly true. But do not close the possibility that it could be one thing that can make them greedy when getting a big win, we also do not know how the future of everyone and also how a person's thoughts. So if we want to be able to do well or not gambling experience addiction then we should be able to control yourself and do not assume that gambling is the place to look for profits By failure to control our self in gambling that would already mean that we are addicted and once we are addicted gambling will never be good to us. A drug addict is not so serious than being addicted as you can lose everything you have established when you do not control the amount of your bets. |

Loans are really risky but not for the borrower, obviously the risk is on the lender as borrower will not choose to pay if he is not a good payer. There are many scammers online so we need to be careful if we plan to have this kind of business. I would not recommend so, because the risk does not commensurate the income.

In my opinion you should bet it in the most comfortable area you got and you can get more than 10 btc in just 1 week
The best comfortable area that you can possibly bet on is 1.02x (98%). I don't think someone has made 10btc by betting at that multiplier. Even if they bet for years in that multiplier, they wouldn't be able to make 10btc because even if it's the lowest chance, there's still a chance that you'll lose. Losing one time in that multiplier will prolong your journey. It's not worth trying. that's right i often seen many players already got busted even using this strategy as we can't tell when we got lucky or not. for me its much better to invest your money for example buying house or lots. price of a lots usually increase yearly. and later on you will have a lot of profits. You are talking of a serious investment here my brother, real state investment requires a good capital and we do not have that. We need to learn how to save first to be able to invest that kind of business, and I can say that is a good business only if you have a good capital as well. |

Yes, we might not see it, as we cannot see who is using bitcoin, but for sure there are people who are using bitcoin like money to fund their illegal activity...maybe some people are keeping their money asset as bitcoin to make sure that government won't see it... but definitely it won't hurt bitcoin...
If people are using then let them do it because they have all the freedom to do it. I would not be surprise if some are using it in illegal activities because bitcoin has all the feature to be the best currency for illegal activities, it would not be a downfall for bitcoin if some are using it for illegal activities. |
