11581  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Alt coins worth buying on: October 12, 2016, 02:35:38 AM
You need to reasearch about the coin you wanna invest.. some coins are pure... shit and some other have the potencial to be something special.. but this is no reason to be fool when you are investing your money you still can lose because the people maybe don't see the same potencial.

Indeed you need to think about the future it has if it has one of course and if the market can be profitable.
So long this is the fact it is worth investing in altcoins if you are asking me.
With a lot of altcoins in the market you cannot just blindly pick what to invest, you need to study them all and also consider the volume, the greater the volume the better as that would prove that people are trusting on their money with such project.
11582  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you ever won a unexpected amount with a small amount ? on: October 12, 2016, 02:28:57 AM
In soccer betting you might win huge amount from small amount by doing parlay bet, I sometimes do this kind of betting just for fun, I bet on several matches with small amount like 3 or 4 mBTC , your estimated amount to win might reach @100 depending on the odds, honestly I won parlay bet one time only with @45 odds and lost many times, but as I stated it is just for fun.
It is really exciting to watch the game if you have a parlay bet on it, like you I have also won but that was long time ago and all my winnings were turn over back because of my loses recently, but despite of that it gives you a good feel of entertainment when you hit and  you call it jackpot.
11583  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Skills vs Luck *poll* on: October 12, 2016, 02:25:46 AM
To be honest my girlfriend always talks about good luck and bad luck and sometimes I am being infected with it and do rely on it also. Still I believe that it is skill that will take you to the higher possible status. Luck if not believed will not exist in a human being.
yes your girl friend is really thinking good, as the first most thing is the luck if you are lucky then you can really make a good money, but it is also a fact that skill can increase the chance of your winning the game and making money.
I really do not rely on that but I pray to God that whatever my decision will be guided by Him. My strategy is I do study and make a good research to improve my skills and let God do the rest. There are really things that we cannot expect in trading as sometimes our heart plays over our heart so we just have to pray for it that it will be right, and maybe that will be the time where our luck will come.
11584  Economy / Economics / Re: Is USD being used for illegal activities? on: October 12, 2016, 02:21:57 AM
I think all currency has been used for illegal activity not just USD. So theres no reason for others to blame crypto that is being used for illegal activity because even fiat is being used.

i am agree, because in many country, there are many illegal activity using money and there are no clue how much they using this money to illegal activity. and if there are a way for crypto to being involve with illegal activity then its normal. but we should not make any illegal activity.
I think it's up to them to use bitcoin as their illegal activities helper besides, they do not look and it does not give adverse effects to bitcoin, it will help bitcoin #imo
you're also free to use for anything with bitcoin
Indeed, as long as there is an increase of market circulation that is a big help to progress the economy of bitcoin, we must be happy with that as whatever the outcome they cannot blame it to bitcoin as any currency can be use for illegal activities.
11585  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is Holding Bitcoin a long time good way to make money? on: October 12, 2016, 02:15:43 AM
Yes I think that we can make a lot of money with long term investing in the bitcoin because it has a great future and it can also go to a very high amount if you are asking me.
Its just that you can make a lot of money and that the bitcoin is so profitable these days, so think about a long term it will even be more.
yes i am also interested in long term investment, and like to invest as more bitcoin as i can and then wait patiently  for some years, hope that at the end i will really get a good profit.
You can if you have a lot of patient in holding your bitcoins, the real opportunity to make great income is when you hold for the long term with the amount of investment that you find as decent. The longer you hold the better opportunity you can earn if the price will continue to increase.
11586  Other / Off-topic / Re: If i give you 10 BTC what will you do? on: October 12, 2016, 02:07:22 AM
if you give me 10btc then i will put 8btc into trading and will cash out 2btc into faint currency as a good advicer told me that you will make a 100% profit when you have the money in yoir own hand not in a vertual world

If you invest 8 btc in trading then you will be making huge profits from it but you should invest that high amount only if you have good knowledge of trading or else it will be an risky affair.
There is no assurance that you can make a good profit in trading this is still risky but not the same as ponzi or gambling casino. if you discover soem strategy how to do some a good strategy to make profit.. just repeat it and until you gain your goal and make more profit to multiple your sets of margins..
All methods on how to earn in bitcoin has no assurance that you make profit you need is to try those method and pick the method that you see you can earn lot of profit and for me i choose to do trading and sports betting it is gives me lot of profit.
It all matters on how you execute the plan, if you do it well you will be able to make money and I believe most of the comments or suggestions here will really work if we can properly take it into action.
11587  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you Rich from Gambling? on: October 12, 2016, 02:02:00 AM
No I am not and I dont even see myself being rich with that kind of industry. The losing side have a higher percentage than winning so it will be more likely to be broke than to be rich. I have also this thinking that gambling is just for rich people.

I also do not have the feeling that this could be done by my because its just so hard to do and gambling is based on luck so you need a lot of luck to even do it if you are asking me.

well that's because you are betting on the wrong side , as long as you are playing the usual casino games you will end broke
but it's really possible to become a self employed by beating poker and sportsbetting

it's not easy to be rich from this market , but it's really possible to make enough money
That's a tough job and every tough job deserves a great pay, if you can be successful with gambling most particularly as a poker player, you will be rich easy and you will be able to enjoy like with financial freedom.
Exactly, and I guess I will not pursue my ambition of making money in gambling because I have failed many times and seems now it is clear to me that i do not have a chance, it is good to accept earn so we can minimize our loses since making money is not that easy in gambling.
11588  Other / Off-topic / Re: Do you actively spend your bitcoins? on: October 12, 2016, 01:57:35 AM
Not for now cause im just only starting to earn bitcoins here in the forum. I will buy cellphone using my bitcoin if i have enough btc. But i will need 3 months in order to buy a cheap one.

good goal, i have goal to make a big mining rig with my earning from bitcoin, so i can growing my bitcoin Wink
for me spending bitcoin in righ time is the best way to make our spending is usefull.
That is true, we have to consider that we are spending a precious coin that has a chance to grow its value in the future, we should limit our spending and focus on investing, I can see that it is the only chance we have to grow our money here and make a decent profit.
11589  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is bitcoin being used for illegal activities on: October 12, 2016, 01:52:50 AM
Yes, like every currency, Bitcoin is being used for illegal activities. However, I'd say the ration between "clean" money and "dark" money will be higher tha with fiat, where at leat 1/10 of the total cash was ever used for illegal activities.

How would you ever figure that out with fist though? You couldn't! But with bitcoins you would know exactly where they originated from. I think it's actually really stupid for people to use bitcoins for something illegal because it's on a public ledger now! Forever!
It is possible mate because it is safe for the illegal activities since we are not giving our personal information to use bitcoin that things can do easily and without worrying that they will be detected.
Exactly, but still if authorities will really look into our illegal transactions, for sure they will be able to trace it and our future will be compromise. Me, although I know how to do a transaction that I am hard to trace but I will not take chances because what matters to me is freedom.
11590  Other / Off-topic / Re: Will you quit your day job to go full time on bitcoin? on: October 12, 2016, 01:50:10 AM
I would never go on Bitcoin full time because if it goes wrong with Bitcoin I would then go out and have to still search for a job when I had one.
Bitcoin does not need much time so it is better that you do it one the side.
really what to say that it is very likely you could get into trouble if it works in bitcoin and if you're out of work bitcoin surely you will find it difficult anyway to get a job at a real job, because at this time very difficult to get a job, so it would be better if you use two jobs at once


I would the same too, I won't quit my full time job because here in my country it is very hard to nail a very good job. And I won't leave that easily even though I have a way which will bitcoin will do. So working for both of it is going to be the best thing so that I am not going to waste any opportunity for both of it.
With that you are in safe hands, having our full time job is better that going full time with bitcoin if we do not have the skills like others are having in order to make a consistent income in a daily basis to fund our needs and wants, with our full time job we have a job security which bitcoin cannot give us.
11591  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why Gambling is Fun? on: October 12, 2016, 01:38:43 AM
I think it's fun because you start with X and the possibilities make you believe you can double your bankroll without effort in some minutes or hours... Easy way to earn money make you feel happy and when you start earning you think you are ''invencible''.

Basically, it's fun because the great opportunities this kind of game offers to the player.

You are right with it, because many are seeing it as a good opportunity for just some minutes they are going to allocate with it.

And they are going to get good amount if they are going to be lucky with it. And that is what gambling is making it more fun.

Gamblers are earning good amount when they are already in the industry for a long time.
Not all can do that because I myself have been in the industry for so long and yet I am still not earning in gambling, maybe it really requires a lot of skills in order for you to win consistently and that can only be done if you are professional gambler and full time in gambling.
11592  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To Gamble or To Invest? on: October 12, 2016, 01:34:14 AM
I hate both gambling and investments as both are affecting my peace of mind with its risks. I was into both of them and they were affecting me in psychologically. Peace of mind is more important than making more profits in my humble opinion, so I also want to go with holding bitcoins simply.
If you are not ready to take risks, holding bitcoin would be the right option for you. You never need to worry about your investments when you are putting only your affordable money.
You never invest all your money but you can invest very least percentage like 1% to 5%. Because taking risk with least amount will not harm you much.

Actually "holding Bitcoin" is also an investment Wink and in opinion of many people BTC is very risky investment.. Don't forget, that Bitcoin it is still an experiment.. Wink

In my opinion gambling is very risky, so before someone is starting playing for money must be aware that can lost all.. So it should be done very responsibly.

Investing, of course, should also be very responsible, so if thats are large amounts, it is best to consult that with specialist.
People loves to takes risk with bitcoin because we believe that bitcoin has a very good future and that the demand will increase so with the price, with our investment now, we are expecting that in the long run maybe 5 to 10 years, our investment will already be doubled.
11593  Other / Off-topic / Re: Will you quit your day job to go full time on bitcoin? on: October 11, 2016, 11:57:32 AM

One thing you'll DEFINITELY need to full time on Bitcoin is your day job, so don't quit!

This gives quite a good idea about digital currency. Don't quit your day job until you have a proper business in Bitcoin Ecosystem.

Indeed never ever quit your day job until you have a proper business with anything at all.
I won't quit for bitcoin cause I know I am going to get in trouble with my bills and I won't be able to pay them from bitcoin.

Yeah to get full time in bitcoin is recommended only if  you are earning higher income in compare to your full time job but you also need to make sure that you that amount on regular basis.
The thing is that there is no regular income here in crypto world, everything depends on your skills and knowledge on how to manage yourself in order to earn money, anyway this only for the real risk takers who loves to gamble their future and hoping that they will get good income so they can retire early.
11594  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling made for kids???? on: October 11, 2016, 11:51:56 AM
I don't think gambling was made for kids. They have better things to do than bet on this kind of game. Gambling games are for adults that have total responsibility over your own acts and know how to spend their money.
I also do not think that gambling is made for kids because that can end up being bad for them they need to learn how to control there money and not spend it on gambling.
It is better for your kids to not gamble because if they will there are going to gamble if they are older as well. 

Yeah,

Gambling are not made for kids,
and kids shouldn't be playing it.

Because a kid are so innocent and can't control
themselves especially to combat addiction.
Even though adults sometimes cannot.

That is why it should never be introduce to kids.
I agree with all of you, gambling were not made for kids but there are some bad kids whom play gambling. ( Include me when was child )
So what is the effect then, did it make you a gambler now or you are just doing fine?

Tell us something based on your experience as when I was a kid I was not able to gamble as my parents always told me to prioritize my studies over anything else.
11595  Other / Off-topic / Re: What is your plan to get rich with Bitcoin? on: October 11, 2016, 11:46:38 AM
Can I live from gambling with bitcoins? Well that is my plan, for now I'm earning some low amounts, but its higher then 3 months ago. if I continue to rise my income from that maybe I have a chance. Money is for using and spending not for saving.

No you can't make a 'guaranteed, regular' income from gambling. Sooner or later you'll lose or worse go on a losing streak & it'll all come crashing down.....your life I mean.

My advice is to just get a job, work like normal people do. Bitcoin wise, buy what you can afford & HODL long term because although boring it's much more likely to bring great profits than gambling or trading.
yeah , totally true , that gambling is not the correct way . but everything in the bitcoin needs the bulk deal to make the profit . so you can make some btc site like casino and faucet site .
well i have plan to make faucet site . to become rich .
Well, I have to tell you frankly faucet site will not make you rich easily, it needs a lot of time and effort on your end although you are owning a site. Maybe you should try to invest and do day trading at the same time, in that way you have a bigger chance to achieve your dreams.
11596  Economy / Economics / Re: Does the Price of Bitcoin Matter? on: October 11, 2016, 11:39:00 AM
It does like how mucb you value the things that you wear or you own. We people always rely on price to see the importance of a thing. If it doesnt matter then maybe you are one of those guys that are satisfied with everything. I guess i wont see you here if you have that thinking.
yeah I think whatever you do with bitcoinmu, we bitcoin users will always depend on the price for any purpose. price plays a very important position in bitcoin, even when bitcoin does not have a price, you will not be able to use bitcoin for anything
Without a price bitcoin is worthless because the value of bitcoin is measure on fiat or specifically in US Dollars as the standard value, what we are seeing now is that the price of bitcoin have really increased substantially this year alone and that could mean that we have a fruitful year and more to come.
11597  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you ever won a unexpected amount with a small amount ? on: October 11, 2016, 11:10:09 AM
You were gambling on one website and wager with a small amount  . And BANG, you won an unexpected amount in some couple of bets only. If these happen with you,  please share it here.
i had never get a gambling game for win of unexpected amount . but i was at freebitco.in when i gamble with my 10k satoshi then i Lost all at single bet . then after this there is complete of 1 hour get again free 300 aatoshi . but when i cleared the capatcha then i win with lucky number and got 0.001btc .
I appreciate what you are doing as despite of the small amount of winning you are already happy with that, I mean in my case 0.001 is just a giveaway for me and I never bother to gamble that amount, maybe that just prove that we have our own limit in gambling and what is vital is we bet what we can afford to lose.
11598  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Off-Season on: October 11, 2016, 11:04:57 AM
I just noticed that David Lee has been traded to Spurs, hopefully he'd be appreciated with his kind of game with Pop. Kinda excited for the season.  Smiley Smiley
The Spurs are definitely scooping up these old reliables. Earlier it was Pau Gasol, now it is David Lee. These two will fill the gap created by Tim Duncan's retirement and David West's departure to Golden State. I was hoping they could further develop Boban Marjanovic into a more solid contributor but I guess he had other plans of his own that is why he signed with another team. I really hope the Spurs could still be among the contenders in the super competitive Western Conference given the acquisitions they made during this offseason.
To be honest, I have more fun watching the spurs in the finals against the cavaliers in the finals because I can see how they do things to match up Lebron James, I just hope they will be healthy through out the season as for sure it would be a great playoffs in the west.

Can't be too sure with the warriors as they are adjusting with Durant's arrival.
11599  Economy / Economics / Re: How to save money. on: October 11, 2016, 09:00:56 AM
saving money is better for unpredicable situtaion, so better to save some money for future then we thinking about investing.
Just don't think about investment because you will able to lose your bitcoin there and money ofcourse the best way to save money is loan your money to your friend and make some money with the percent you will earn on that money while you are saving money so that you could not spend that on things you will not use.
For saving money,i think long term investement and fix deposits in banks is the best options.Or even regular deposits in banks because in this way you can save your moeny every month and also get some investment on those savings.
For saving money of course you need atleast save percentage in your work or salary dont invest your money for long term because you could lose money there and theres no way to turn back your money in short your just wating your money for nothing.
Like the best practice should be that we only invest what we can afford to lose and when we are savings our money in bitcoins that is already a form of investment as we might profit or lose with what we are doing, saving is a different thing as it will not decrease the amount but increases if you put your money in the bank.
11600  Economy / Economics / Re: Sell Everything? on: October 11, 2016, 08:51:32 AM
I do not think that it is the best idea to sell everything at once because there us always a chance that the Bitcoin might rise beyond the price that you have just sold for.
You can then make more money but if you sell everything you miss out on it.

Yeah price is rising slowly at a moment but still its not the best price to sell all coins at a moment, if you are looking for some quick and small profits then you can sell few of them and rest hold for the future.
Just relax and wait for the right timing, if you want to earn in a short period of time, you can buy bitcoins now while the price is slowly rising but pay attention to the price movement and sell your bitcoins when the price starts to fall again.
