just a handful of people who gain success in gambling most others just get a failure and shame, so I suggest for those who have not started and want to try better not because once try and feel the sensation then you will be difficult to get out of his bondage.

it only works with a few people with a big luck because most of the gambler cannot reach this and they only get lost in the gambling games. it is difficult to get success in the gambling no matter how hard we tried because we still need a luck factor to win the games. they still try over and over and only lose more money without realizing that they are only waste of time to just chasing a success in the gambling games. but if they can do this in another job, I am sure that their chance is big and they can get their success.
11242  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Addiction Stories! on: July 04, 2018, 09:51:56 AM
So, I joined one of Bitcoin gambling website last year on September. It was the first time that I played gambling game such as dice and after that I used to play and I couldn't leave the website. Than after some months I found another gambling website called Stake and there also I couldn't levae beacuse there 12 different games. So, till now I'm playing both of these websites. I have been in love to play there because there are a lot of features such as provably fair, Jackpot and free faucet first of all!!! Grin

be careful because if you stay for a long time, you can be an addicting person in gambling. you should know this before it's too late for you to leave that games. I see that you only use the faucet to place the bet and I think if you can use it in every time you play, then I think you can be safe for not depositing your own money in that site. this is really important for us because we don't want to lose any money in the gambling site, right? but remember, you need to limit your money and your time and don't spend all of your time in the gambling sites only.

maybe in the future, cryptocurrency can become globally so all country can use cryptocurrency as a new payment system and not just available on the internet but also available in the real life. but it will need to interfere with the government that will integrate their system with the blockchain technology and maybe the government will launch their own crypto. and maybe their crypto will be a bridge between cryptocurrency and the fiat so it will connect to each other and we can have more benefits from the crypto.
11244  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Hackers ? on: July 04, 2018, 06:21:40 AM
Are there a lot of hackers now in the crypto's world ? I mean, it a place not totally safe, because of it's quit new.  Do you think hackers can change the crypto economy for their own benefit ?

hackers in the world of crypto exists and wherever every hacker wants to profit by cheating is by way of hacking ...
of course the hackers can turn the economy into their own advantage, because most hackers are just for themselves ...

I am afraid that hackers are not just in the cryptocurrency and I think it's in everywhere but we can prevent them to not doing bad things in our account. we can activate all security that we can do to prevent their attack and we can feel safe although there is no guarantee to be safe at 100% especially if we are often online on the internet. I believe that there are many good people that want to help other people from securing their account.

well in terms of making some helping others in this field of a lot of hackers are out there we can actually make some help by on how they can be able to avoid it to prevent some other people to be not a victim on it.

we can give some tips for preventing the hackers although it is not 100% guarantee safety, at least they can try to secure their account from the hackers. and if we can securing our account then we don't have to worry with the attackers, we can try to activate 2FA, email verification, text message verification and another else to securing our account. the hacker will find a way to attack the target but they cannot do anything if that account is safe.
11245  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The consequences of gambling on: July 03, 2018, 02:03:05 PM
Most of the gamblers know how much risk involved in gambling. All are aware of the outcomes and consequences. But, nothing offers huge returns (only if you are lucky enough) like gambling. That's why people keep playing on casinos. Even if they bust they would probably come back to recover the losses.

Coming to your question, I never had experienced any kind of consequences due to gambling so far. I'm not a regular gambler.
I am also not a regular gambler and I think when we enter gambling, we already know the possibilities that will happen and the outcome of this game. We already know that when we play gambling, there is always a loser and a winner by the end of the day.

The possible outcome is always negative because which we cannot able to money here, that's how there is huge risk involved in it. Before playing they already know how much risk is associated with gambling but still, they are taking chances to win through gambling but at last, they are failing to make money.

unfortunately, even they know how much the risk, they still playing gambling and they use another money because they think that at this time, they can win much money. but the reality is they only lose more money and they cannot make any money or even to recover their money. I think this is the consequences of gambling that every people should know and for new people which are trying playing gambling so they can be aware of this.
11246  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambler's mindset! on: July 03, 2018, 12:40:30 PM
spending a small fortune, and hoping to earn a lot of money. that's the gamblers' main mindset, they hope to bring in a little capital and get a lot of wins. but sometimes lose is also unavoidable.
Well, in a way, that can actually work as long as you are not going above your small fortune and you are still able to control yourself. I do not gamble much but I spend so little weekly playing lottery and that is as little as something I would not even blink an eye about if I lose.

I let this mentality kick in with the hope that one day even with this little, who knows, I may actually win something and even if I do not, it is the way things are and nothing actually changes.
Playing lottery sounds something safe to me because even you win or lose, you will not become an addict because you don’t have much surprising outcomes in it and you also don’t play by yourself so it has very little fun in it. Yeah! It depends upon your luck and if you will be lucky sometime, you would get bigger surprises and even if you lose, no need to worry about the losses.
I too afraid of gambling and I can say with surety that you too will be afraid because no one has that much extra money to lose in gambling. However, every person comes for gambling to become rich rather than to become poor. I didn’t have ever thought about my good time when I am under pressure because I don’t have that much time to do that.
I am also afraid of gambling because I can’t afford the losses of gambling as well as the consequences of gambling because I have seen very strong people in my life who were strong when they didn’t gambled but when they started gambling, they also weren’t able to bear the consequences of gambling and the rest of their lives was spent unhappily.

this is what we've got if we started gambling without thinking about the risk. no matter how much money we have, if we cannot control our mind, we will lose our money. and yes, after we lost that money in gambling, our life will not happy and we cannot use that money to buy something because we don't have any money to buy. we need to always control our mind to not getting deeper into gambling and we need to learn when we must leave the gambling places and save our money.
11247  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Keep safe your Bitcoin from hacker on: July 03, 2018, 10:26:51 AM
Because Bitcoin is full online typing so it is more likely to be hacked. So it is very important to keep your private key with caution. Keep your bitcoin saved.
Yeah in any online, anything can be hacked, you should be more careful for it, there is actually a more sophisticated way to avoid
hacking, you can use a hardware wallet, you will avoid phishing, scam, hacking and so on, you can use it to avoid that risk...

I will choose offline wallet or it is better to use the other wallet than for using online wallet because it's more secure for me and I can directly to check everytime I want. besides that, I don't have to be worry or afraid for being scam, hacking and others because, with hardware wallet, I feel my safety is guaranteed except if I lose the hardware wallet and I don't know the private keys.
11248  Economy / Speculation / Re: Price manipulation on: July 03, 2018, 08:59:17 AM
I read that they are investigating criminal price manipulations over Bitcoin. Manipulation of prices is really possible ? This happened before ?

I've heard, when the beginning of the rise of Bitcoin there has been price manipulation, whether true or false I do not know.
I've also read that Coinmarketcap used to manipulate data, that's what I know, but I forget where I read it.

I think there is any of price manipulation that is happening in the cryptocurrency because we know that there are a people that have a big amount of bitcoin and they can easily to moves the price to the level that they want. but they cannot always do this because they need to follow with the market wants and they will be wise to make a decision. but unfortunately, we still don't know who is the people which can do price manipulate and it is better to follow the trends that are happening in the market.
11249  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Who believes in HODLING? on: July 03, 2018, 07:58:39 AM
Holding is not risky but the more you hold it the more you are tempt to sell it because of many reasons. Sometimes you get in trouble like panic selling.

holding have a risk too. for example, if you buy a coin in 1000 satoshi and you have a plan to hold in 3 months but suddenly, in the first month, the price is down too deep and reach 700 satoshi.  your emotion will be said that you need to sell all of your coins but in another side, you said that it's no problem because I want to hold for about 3 months so no matter how deep is the price, I can still hold it. you see that you have the option and you still don't know when the price can move higher more than 1000 satoshi. but all in all, if the coin is good enough and has a good project with the solid team and community, then the coin will increase in after 3 months so you can gain a big profit. but this is not guaranteed to work on all coins and you need to choose the coin to be held.
11250  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Effects of Gambling on: July 02, 2018, 02:35:19 PM
The biggest factor here is self control, the greed to win more never gets satisfied until one loses every coin he have. Instead of celebrating, you'll end up crying.
Gambling has both positive and negative impacts, it depends on an an individual how well they manage gambling in their life, sometimes can win in gambling need to control emotions at that time. Suppose lose in gambling means need to have a patience for next win.

but there are too many negative impacts from gambling that we know and we should not play gambling in every day and we should know when the time to quit gambling. besides that, controlling emotions is the hardest things that we can do because we can be greedy when we can win much money in gambling so we still want to win more money. this could attract us to become an addicting person in gambling and we are difficult to quit gambling because we always want to play another game.
Exactly, once you experience wether win or lose, you'll get addicted by that time. If you win, you want more, if you lose, you want to get it back. You won't notice, you've become addicted and hard to quit from gamnling.

Because they put on their mind that gambling Is the key for easy gaining a profits. But If you just think It back, It's just a kind of entertainment which make our vacant hours to be filled of happiness.

yes, once you attract to continue the game, you can easily lose your money and you don't have any chance to recover your money. the effect of gambling is too dangerous for everyone because it can attract us to stay for a long time at the gambling games and spend more money. we cannot make any profit in every time and every day and we need to realize that is impossible for us to gain a big profit and for gaining the big profit, we must have a luck.
11251  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sportsbetting on: July 02, 2018, 01:34:41 PM
This kind of gambling is the one I wanted to try since then because compared to all kinds of gambling online, it's the most profitable one. It's just i'm impatient when it comes to waiting in gambling and I played dice most of the time.


- Where do you win high amount of bitcoin in straight betting or in parlay?

 - Do you believe in hunch in terms of betting or still believe in prediction of the analyst?

 - Do you experience a sweet victory in parlay? How many team or sports you try to mixed?

 - Are you believe in lucky in terms of sports betting or you believe to the ability of the players?

As of now I was not yet win in any sportsbetting I do, do you have any strategies on how I know whose the teams/player were win in the game?

In a sports betting, you should know which team is stronger or which team has a higher percentage of winning. There you put your bet and enjoy having bigger chance to win.
It wasn't that easy, don't underestimate the underdog.

this is why we need to know much information about every team so we can place in the right team and we have a chance to win the games. but this is difficult as every team will make a good change for their team and we need to update the information that we have so our chance will bigger. but sometime we missed some information that maybe comes after the match is started.
11252  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To quit gambling is to quit yourself on: July 02, 2018, 12:32:29 PM
I have seriously considered quitting gambling but if i did, a certain part of me would be missing.
This is because I have many friends who I go to the bar with to watch the games. 
If there was no gambling, it wouldnt be as fun to watch the games at the bar.
I dont know if to quit is to quit yourself but you will be like a much different person if gambling is not part of your every day life.

I think in the bar, there is another game that you can play with your friends and maybe you can play billiards but don't use the money for the winner. you can try to quit gambling if you really want to and I think you can try to build another habit so you don't have to feel that something is missing. and I don't think that quit gambling will make you become different person besides becoming a better person without gambling in your life.
11253  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: What coin to invest? on: July 02, 2018, 11:32:13 AM
so far, I still invest in ethereum, ada, trx and of course in bitcoin too as my main investment coin. but I want to invest in other coins too because there are a lot of coins that is good for the long-term investment and I think many of that coins that will increase in the future. but we need to know that all coins in the cryptocurrency can decrease too deep if bitcoin price is down so we need to stay calm and still hold the coins until the price back increases. many of us still difficult to choose the coins for investment because they are too afraid if the price is down too deep.
11254  Economy / Economics / Re: What would happen if another cryptocurrency took Bitcoins place in Market Cap? on: July 02, 2018, 10:31:46 AM
Then we will see changes in the leaders, then we will be able to observe some correction. Although I do not really believe in it, I think bitcoin is very firmly entrenched in the leaders.

maybe we can see in the future and will not see this in the short time because bitcoin still leading the cryptocurrency and all coins still adjust their price with bitcoin. maybe if there is a new technology which is better than blockchain technology then the new cryptocurrency will change the position of the cryptocurrency and the bitcoin position will change to that new crypto. but so far, I am not seeing the opportunity for another coin to replace bitcoin in the cryptocurrency.
11255  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Buy This Dip or Wait ? on: July 02, 2018, 08:15:20 AM
So BTC and most alts are down 10-25% pretty much across the board from 6:30 est. this morning.

So what do you think guys, buy this dip or wait for more blood?

The market is overall in panic mode and even bitcoin is not showing any kind of strength or indicating the start of a bullish trend. I think we should be waiting for prices to be settled down in the Bitcoin price chart and once the price settles down and the bear trend is over you can look for the bullish signal or strength and then enter your positions for long, till than i would recommend you to wait and just watch the market because we don't know how low the market will dip.

I think if you see in the market (bittrex and poloniex), there is a good time for buying in this dip because I see that many altcoins are trying to increase back after it decreases for a while. I agree that bitcoin is not moving higher or lower and only stay in that price level so I think it is time for altcoin to go increase again. but if you want to wait for a moment until you find another good time price to buy altcoin, then I think you can wait in a few days and if the price is not moving down, then you can buy directly.
11256  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you set up limits for yourself? on: July 01, 2018, 02:29:44 PM
Its important to set limits and boundaries before diving into this dangerous sport of gambling.
The ups and downs can cause a person to go mad if they are caught chasing, so setting limits and boundaries is 100% essential to long term survival.
But then setting limit becomes useless if the player get mad and want to chase down losses. We all know if gambler get mad, they can't control their emotion and lead to more losses. Even in win, overwhelming feeling makes them continue to play and play until their winning get lost.

we can lose all money we have if we are getting mad because we will forget about the limits that we already set. then maybe we need to consider controlling our emotion first and then we need to set limits so we can prevent getting mad and we can stop the games if necessary. this will need practice over and over so you can control your emotion and obey the limits that you make.
11257  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will esports gambling be explosive in the future like sports gambling? on: July 01, 2018, 01:21:26 PM
The explosion of World Cup gambling industry has  shocked me.

Along with the development of esprots game, will the esports (electronic sports like LOL, Dota, Counter Strike, HearthStone, Call of duty and so on) gambling be huge in the future?

Guys, what's your vision about the esports gambling business? I'm planning to devote myself into this field. Any advice or suggestion?

maybe it will happen since we know that there are coins that available for the games only and I am sure that in the future, there are many devs that want to create a coin that will be used for esports. and when this is happening, the gamers will use the coins/tokens and it will get placed on the market too and the cryptocurrency will grow more. and I am sure that the game business will attract more people to come into cryptocurrency.
11258  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you find Success in Gambling? on: July 01, 2018, 11:58:59 AM
I find some success in Online Gambling because all my deposit are only coming from free faucets when I started the crypto currency last April, 2017. Just like they said gamble only what you can afford to lose.


Here is my stat on one gambling site I played

11.10082714 BTC WAGERED 0.14142170 BTC PROFIT
   
119.82957774 ETH WAGERED 0.82918252 ETH PROFIT

Those profit is too small than compare to others but those profit help my family a lot.

I think you good a great success in gambling section because not much player that could get a good stat like you especially to get 0.14 btc profit and 0.82 eth profit. and yes, I agree that we need to know how much money that we want to use to playing gambling and don't play gambling if you cannot accept your loss. it is better to play gambling for just fun and not for chasing the winning money.
11259  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Who believes in HODLING? on: July 01, 2018, 10:55:03 AM
Hello people!

Was looking at CMC and was wondering few years down the line what we will be able to see in this list and how long it will be?

Reality is we are very early in this industry and the pace at which projects are coming up and the technology is changing does anyone believe in HODLING cryptos anything other than Bitcoin and Ethereum?

I feel it's a buzz word used to create a FOMO effect

I believe that holding the coin is the best thing that we can do right now. but it's only for a good coin like bitcoin, ethereum, and the other coins. I am sure that holding some coins in the cryptocurrency, it will give us a big profit in the future although cryptocurrency still a new technology but I think it will grow fast in the next year. so if I can choose the best coins only for holding then I will buy that coins while the price is not too expensive in this time and then keep it for at least 1 year or 2 years from now.
11260  Economy / Speculation / Re: What effects the bitcoin price? on: July 01, 2018, 09:42:14 AM
Since I started with bitcoin saw the rapid rise and decrease of the price, so as I read the news and other blogs about bitcoin this is the things that constantly alter bitcoin value.

1. Government policies and regulation (sometimes banning of bitcoin), like Russia, India, S. Korea and others.
2.  News and media sites ( closing of related bitcoin site and hacking like $60m cryptocurrency hacked https://www.wikitribune.com/story/2017/12/11/technology/nicehash-ceo-speaks-out-after-60m-cryptocurrency-hack/27212/
3. Intended market manipulation. Some player buy large amount of bitcoin it causes the bitcoin rise in the market.
4. Limited supply of bitcoin not more than 21M tokens, in high demand.
5 Other policy of central bank.

This is few reason why bitcoin alter rapidly.

Every news can actually affect the prices in the market either it was a fud or government decisions because investors are always waiting for the speculations so obviously the traders will change their mind depending if it was a good speculation or bad.

and if there is any bad news that comes out, I think there are people that waiting this moment because they know that this will makes the price is down and even it's down too deep. they will make an order buy at the low price and perhaps, they can buy much of bitcoin because I am sure that they will prepare much money too.
