1181  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is Holding Bitcoin a long time good way to make money? on: January 05, 2017, 04:51:39 AM
If have good amount is good to hold them, but at this time I've move the coins because of this high price. Is possible to see an high climb of btc price and lose a lot of money.

The amounts basically don't really matter if you are long term minded. Everything that is being seen as a low amount today can turn into a serious amount after 3 or 4 years. Just look at early January 2015 where the price went below $200 shortly. If you bought just 1 BTC back then, you'd be sitting at a profit of $900 right now. In this case the $200 investment is the small amount.

Nope, Waiting for some years just for a little amount. That's not worthy.

Quote
In this case the $200 investment is the small amount.

Because small and that's nonsense just put a little if bitcoin had had a lot of the potentially.

In this time we don't encourage about the bubble.
We can not take a decision like this in bitcoin. Because who knows in 2017 the price will cross 1000$ how can we predict bitcoin price right. And yes investing some money and waiting for years to make a nice profit is not worth. Especially investing in bitcoin is too risky. We can not predict the tomorrow bitcoin price it may go up or come down.

its really difficult to tear the two apart as it will depend on which side of the transaction you are playing whether the receiving side or the sending side and we all know sellers would undisputedly go for bitcoins and the buyers being afraid of being scammed will prefer paypal as it protects them/us.
The good thing in bitcoin right now we are seeing that the price is continues to increase and almost all people are get the benefits of the price increase of bitcoin unlike you are just using paypal and the fee is high than bitcoin.. the good thing in paypal you can charge back if you receive a wrong product or not fits to your needs. .
Yes, PayPal has this advantage that if any customer complaint that they are not received product or any other issue, the customer will get back there money to PayPal account. But this is the only advantage for buyers for sellers this is a big disadvantage because some buyers will cheat sellers like after getting the good product they will raise the complaint telling like it's not received or the product is not good etc. so this is a loss for sellers. I personally had experience in online business.
1183  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Does any bank accept Bitcoin? on: January 05, 2017, 03:16:24 AM
There are no banks that accepting bitcoin.
One reason why this is happening, its all because bitcoin and banks aren't supporting each other.
Yup, no banks are accepting bitcoin, but I heard that in some countries bitcoin users are withdrawing money from local atms. I don't know how it will work. Becasue without knowing banks how the money transaction will happen. If we withdraw money in our bank statement, everything will mention right. Anyone clarify this, please.
1184  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Very little Press Coverage of Bitcoin's Rally this time on: January 05, 2017, 03:11:31 AM
Do you really wonder why there is a lack of news coverage on a currency that could threaten governments from news outlets backed by governments? One day they will have no choice to report on it but for now, most people still don't know what bitcoin even is. Just give it time and in the mean time keep supporting it and spreading the word.

That is holly true. Not so many people know about bitcoin in all mass of people. It's only a little percent. So why would newspapers talk about a new rise of unknown subject. I'm pretty sure that in those newspapers who had wrote about bitcoin's rise work people interested in bitcoin.
I think the news media and newspapers have some restrictions from their governments, like do not spread this type of news in the market, so they are not supporting for this bitcoin publicity. In my country, i never saw any news regarding for this bitcoin. Only on the international channel is saw sometimes. That is why in my country still lot's of people don't know what bitcoin is.
1185  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin has no competition on: January 05, 2017, 03:02:15 AM
Now no other cryprocurrency  can compare with it. Over the years say that the btc has died hundreds of times, but not only dead but is evolving daily and has helped millions of people worldwide. so it can't has competition. Smiley
Yes in the present situation the Bitcoin is the king of cryptocurrency. No other currencies will compete with bitcoin now. But we are not sure how many days the BTC will maintain his reputation. As you said, lot of times the BTC has died in the past, so we are not sure it may be repeated again in future. But as per now according to me, there is no competition against Bitcoin.
1186  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How was your luck in 2016.? on: January 04, 2017, 12:58:56 PM
Not too good, but I didn't lost that much in 2016 because I only gamble with small amount, maybe I lost around 0.1, I won most of them from sportbetting and I lost the most on roulette game, roulette lost is the most memorable, 66.66 % chance of winning but lost 7 times in a row

But just 0.1 BTC loss is not so much for a whole year, and you can think that that small amount you spend it for fun for a complete year. I made around more than a couple of bitcoins from sports betting and may be lost less than 0.5BTC in dice game so overall still in profit.
1187  Economy / Gambling / Re: PRIMEDICE COMPROMISED on: January 04, 2017, 12:54:08 PM
Still no update from Stunna. Should I move this to the Scam Accusations thread in that case ?
Wait for it. I don't think that Stunna will gonna sweep this case under the rug. After couple days without proper response just create another thread is Scam Accusation section.
I would keep this thread in gambling section just for people who (like me) are not checking frequently other sections.

I saw Stunna asked him mail on 1st Jan and today already 4th Jan. I consider it is already sufficient time given to reply at least first information on what has happened and still how long they need it to investigate. If no reply yet means it is not a good customer support from a reputed site. If they can't manage traffic then should employee someone to handle these issues. It is just my opinion.
1188  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Betting on Bitcoin price on: January 04, 2017, 12:29:01 PM
Hello Bitcoin lovers!

Where I can bet on BTC price? I don't mean "What will be BTC price by the end of 2016,2017 etc?" bets. I would like to bet on quick changes of BTC price (dollars).

Thank you!

Why you not go play or trading on some website that had trading platform,. And you will pick any price there like betting and dont use any technical analytic at the time you trade at any price..

there are a site which is giving an opportunity for us to predict the price of bitcoin and we can make a bet but unfortunately i am forgot the name of the site. so if the price is up and we make a bet for the increasing of the price then we can collect the amount of bitcoin but if not, then we only loss our money for increasing of the price.
i think the prediction of bitcoin is depend on the new about bitcoin, if you have good information and updates about bitcoin then you can really predict about bitcoin in a good way. but if you have no sound information then your prediction may not be so good.
I think predicting on bitcoin price is bit tough, I never tried this I just assume the price that's it. But exactly I don't know where to get this information. The mate said there is the perticular site for this information, please share that site name it will be helpful for us. And yes without proper knowledge betting on Bitcoin is not safe.
1189  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to quit Gambling for good? on: January 04, 2017, 06:10:32 AM
Go to therapy

Cognitive-behavioral therapy for problem gambling focuses on changing unhealthy gambling behaviors and thoughts, such as rationalizations and false beliefs. It also teaches problem gamblers how to fight gambling urges, deal with uncomfortable emotions rather than escape through gambling, and solve financial, work, and relationship problems caused by the addiction.

The goal of treatment is to “rewire” the addicted brain by thinking about gambling in a new way. A variation of cognitive behavioral therapy, called the Four Steps Program, has been used in treatment of compulsive gambling as well. The goal is to change your thoughts and beliefs about gambling in four steps; re-label, reattribute, refocus, and revalue. Seeing a therapist does not mean you are weak or can’t handle your problems.

Therapy is for people who are smart enough to realize they need help. It can give you tools and support for reframing your thoughts that will last a lifetime.

I think, it takes a lot of time and made a lot of effort. The most important thing to be able to eliminate the addictive gambling is thought and themselves. If their minds still have memories about gambling, however the way he will always use gambling. because gambling has been ingrained in the minds of her. So if you want to remove the gambling addiction is the thought of gambling should be eliminated and control myself not to use gambling in quite a long time. Use the time gambling used to be with the other activities.


I disagree, I think these people need real help from professionals, I have been gambling addicted a few years ago, I now life a good without gambling.
This all because I spoke with a professional that threats gambling addicting already for a long time, he said to be that gambling is a state of mind but some people can do it by them self, this is because the point they always get remembered by the addiction online by different adverts as a example.
They need someone that always remind them that gambling is bad, sometimes this can be your wife or your kids that are old enough, of course you do not have to involve them because that is even more bad.

I think it's okay, letting your family know what's happening to you. If they really love you, they would try to understand why you are like that and might help you more. Personally, to get rid of something that you are addicted at, you must admit to yourself that you are IN FACT addicted. Acceptance first before anything else. After that you could be honest to others and share what you are feeling. Bit by bit, you would see that you are no longer feeling the need to gamble.

Yes, the family members only help you out to come back your gambling addiction. And yes experts suggestions is more important they will give your some ideas how to kill your free time. And they can have the capacity to do mind wash. If you follow their suggestions they will completely take off this gambling from your mind.
1190  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your best luck and worst luck gambling experience? on: January 03, 2017, 11:46:51 PM
Hello, my best luck was last year, when I deposited 0.7 litecoin FortuneJack and won 26 litecoin after 1hr. So I was very happy. And worst luck was after one week when I deposited 0.8 btc in 999dice and lost it in 10 minutes, of course was my fault
There is one word in gambling where you earn there only you will lose. Your story is like that, and it is true. In gambling, it is common because we can not make continues win in gambling. I also face this type of issues in my gambling life. I do sports betting here if I lose today next bet I will win so I am not remembered which is my best pick and which is my worst pick because my betting amount also almost same I will not place big amount.
1191  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling problem on: January 03, 2017, 11:39:11 PM
Weak minded people are normally ones to get addicted to gambling, drugs or more.
But people with newly found or existing emotional or psychological problems or more likely to become addicted.

So both weak minded people and those people who are into experiencing an emotional and psychological problems are the ones who are becoming addicted in gambling. It is hard to cure the addiction if they are getting addicted by that way. Because mental problems are the diseases that is hard to determine its cure.
the number of people who are addicted to gambling is larger than you can imagine. You can not criticize them all just because they are inexperienced in gambling. I do not think that everyone of them have weak mind and psychological problems. Maybe they need more time to understand what they are doing and soon they will know how to control their feelings. Then, they will all figure out the way to lessen gambling
In fact gambling become addicted when you give more importance to it and put your all expectation to it.

For every time, you try to make money and when you do not succeeded then you try again and again so you become addicted and then it become difficult for you to stop gambling in any case either you are winning or losing money.

Yes, that's the problem is starting out when those expectations of us were not being met. And we keep on trying and trying again because we already experience some big wins in it. We always hope for that to happen again and instead of we are getting some good result for that way of thinking but we are ending up into problems and addiction.

I think that is what we call greediness or people being greedy. When they taste the victory of wining from gambling which is always money, people are not satisfied from it. They want to have more so they gamble again thinking to win some amounts until they just lose what they already win and become bankrupt in the end.

Yes that is greediness and not contented at all. They must teach themselves on how to be satisfied at all if they want to have no problem. But that is normal when we are acting like that because it is human nature when we are always becoming greedy. It is already in our genes, but we must control it and we don't have to be acting that much.

Yup everyone has greedy it's human nature. But those who control their greedy they can survive in the gambling world. Especially in gambling, it is more dangerous if you can not control it will spoil your life. I think for many gamblers this is the biggest problem in gambling. apart from this everything is fine we will have more fun and if we lucky we can make some profit.
1192  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why trading is better than gambling? on: January 03, 2017, 11:32:50 PM
Hey! guys i need your opinion and help because i didn't know about this trading thing i only know about how you can earn bitcoin by gambling but still my friend told me that gambling is not the way to earn bitcoin but if you try trading you will earn much profit why is that so guys? trading is better than bitcoin? how? why? where to find that trading thing?
because trading is not more risk like we dissapear all our money , and trading not in addiction

But it can lead you to obsession Smiley

Trading is better than gambling in most cases.  Like you can cut your losses by selling some of your stocks, you cannot do this in gambling because once you bet, it is either win or lose for you.  But in sense of being easy, it  gambling beats trading because you never have to do research on anything,  Just bet and hope you win, sports betting is excluded on this.
Yup trading needs knowledge and skills. If you don't have experience in trading better trade with a small amount and learn how it works. It will take some time learn perfect trading. Once you got through then, you can easily make money from this trading method. But gambling is not like that it's head and tail method your luck will be deiced you are in profit or loss.

We have now made 96.89% on a USD basis after 5 months! Amazing returns - read the full details here:

http://bitcoingamblingreviews.com/bitcoin-gambling-investments-512/
This is absolutely awesome. Can I follow you? I need someone to guide me in this field. Investing in casino bankroll is really profitable if I know how to make a right decision. Congrats on your profit. I hope it will increase in the next month

He has gained around 22% profit from gambling investments in last five months but bitcoin prices are went up very high so in terms of USD they gained overall 100%. As an investment, it is good profit but casino investment growth is less than 5% per month. Still it is a overall good returns.
1194  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What gambling method are you using for Dice? on: December 31, 2016, 10:29:18 AM
For me the only count on feeling and opportunities alone, because I am also hard looking for tips and tricks to be able to win at gambling dice.

Dice game results fully depend only on luck, and if you're playing this game for making money, then I don't suggest because you may easily lose a lot of money in the longer run. But want to play this game for fun only sometimes then just play with any settings. No tricks or tips will give you same result when you try them again in a dice game.
1195  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know when to stop? on: December 31, 2016, 10:24:14 AM
i'm actually stopping gambling whenever im hungry or im out of funds to use in betting. and also im putting some limitation in my everyday life in gambling. its really fun to play gambling but its not necessary to push yourself into gambling all the time ofcourse there's a more good thing than gambling that's why dont be one sided look for a better angle you might get your self a treat after that Smiley

I feel everyday gambling is not a good thing to do even with small amounts because slowly one can addict to these games and can start spending more money on gambling. I don't recommend anyone to gamble on a daily basis but once in awhile with small amount should be good to enjoy our free time in gambling.

Thanks guys, just turned 0.012btc into 0.17btc on slots.
Great feeling when the price is this high, and i am lucky to even gamble once or twice a month so very happy with this win  Smiley

Slot games are not so easy to win money unless you're very lucky. It looks like today your very lucky and can start a new year with good luck. As long as your not gambling every day then can enjoy these games whether we win or not. I usually bet on sports and play dice game but never tried slot games.
1197  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How to explain bitcoin to teenagers or children on: December 31, 2016, 09:32:32 AM
there is no special way of explaining bitcoin against children. we just need patience as they will need a long time to get to know bitcoin. patience is a very important point.
I think not appropriate to tell young children about bitcoin, though you told him about bitcoin, they will not understand
it takes time until they are mature enough to recognize bitcoin

Nah, children today are very intelligent they keep on asking about things that they don't know. And because of technology they can just google almost everything and learn it by themselves. But still it is better if someone is going to give them facts about bitcoin on how it is going to be a good medium for their growth as a kid. It is not that bad if we are going to teach kids about bitcoin.
Yup, now a days kids will find everything in Google, If they just know with bitcoin they can make pocket money, they only learn what bitcoin is and how to use it and where to get it everything. But I think better we should not teach this to our kids, If they addict to gambling means it's a big problem for parents. I will not suggest children to learn Bitcoin.
1198  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can gambling be considered a "high risk investment"? on: December 31, 2016, 09:07:42 AM
Investing and gambling is a matter of decision making so this things will always rely on you. How much to lose or to gain is depending on your bets , same with when or where will the betting be. High or low risk it doesn't matter. The risk is always there.
It is depending on your investment, if you are investing a large amont then surely the risk is high and if you are going to invest a small amount then there is low risk, but the fact is that risk is always involve not only in gambling but in all types of trading also.
i think there are so many other risk factors, for example the type of gambling game. there is more risk in dice games as compare to sports betting, and your experience and gambling skill also effect your risk factors.

Firstly I don't consider gambling as an investment because it is not and it is just a games with more excitement. You may or may not win money in gambling, and that depends only on your luck, not on any experience or other factors. You need an experience and knowledge to invest in other investments.
1199  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you care about bonuses on btc casino ? on: December 31, 2016, 09:03:58 AM
Usually, these bonuses are quite hard to convert into withdrawals because we may lose more money than bonus amount. In gambling, people lose money more if they play longer time and all these bonuses encash you need to satisfy some wagering requirements so I don't chase for that instead gamble with small amount and enjoy my free time.

while you can win rolling i dont know anybody that won lottery.

can somebody post a screenshot?
You can manipulate (photoshop) screenshots, that would be not really a proof.

I don't think any of this forum members has an own lottery from this site because if that is true by one someone might have posted proofs already. But so far winners looks like only site owners or their proxies. I never use this site to buy lottery tickets because it is a waste of time and money.
