121  Economy / Economics / Re: If we can see a country with 'Bitocin standard' monetary system on: December 20, 2019, 06:01:38 PM
I believe that a lot of countries are looking into that, but not in the way that you think. They are not going to eliminate fiat, they are just going to create cryptocurrencies as a part of the system. That way people will be able to convert their money (fiat) to their cryptocurrency, take for example: we have USD and there is USD Cryptocurrency, users can be able to convert the USD to USD-Crypto and then store is as an asset? And they can use it for a quick transaction to anyone around the world just like they would with Bitcoin.

I am saying this because I read about the JPM coin and I believe that it's going to be like that. China is creating their own cryptocurrency and they didn't say that they will be wiping fiat off the paper.

It is funny that most of the people don't want to admit the power of fiat and that it won't go away in just a moment.
And 10 years that cryptocurrencies exist are like a moment compared to history of fiat money.
Anyway, I believe that most of the countries already has that part in their govs that seeks and systematize info about crypto.
Fiat has undoubtedly been there for centuries and crypto is a latest trend in the market. Fiat is used all over the world because it is easy to understand and operate because it does not need any internet etc. whereas to understand crypto currencies, you need to be literate and understand the laws of technology. Crypto currencies will in future be priority when whole world is aware of them.

This kind of trick was not going to work all the time still if this method work their is still no guarantee of winning,
surely dice game and betting game was all about luck since the algorithm was random in the end it is just all about luck.
No matter what type of gambling you do apart from sports betting, you are simply relying on luck in one way or another. In sports at least you can do analysis on the basis of facts and figures which let you help choose a team or player who ahs maximum chances of winning the game. As far as dice rolling and poker games are considered, no matter how many effective strategies you design, you end up on fate.
123  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The pain of playing unders in Football on: December 20, 2019, 05:26:53 PM
I think this is a bet that few players like to play it.I think that the reason is easy enough to understand,when playing Under in the moment that a more number of goals are scored the bet is lost while by playing Over your hopes of winning the bet remains alive for a more amount of time and Over happens more than Under I think.I rarely have played Under and almost always have lost the bet so I can understand your pain.The same can be said for both teams to score,when playing yes you have hopes until the end of the game,when playing no if both teams score the bet is lost and that is the reason many players play the yes option.

I understood what Op is trying to say, after reading your post.
Well, I doubt I would watch a match after betting on either one of the bet types. Watching the match could cause alot of tension.. . You'll be expecting a win and the win has to be specific to your bet.
Before betting on any team, you shall gather information enough about the team by going through their history of matches. Well when you bet on any team, it is great to directly go for results than watching match because every time your time seems losing you die with them even more than them. I never watch any game on which I bet but I believe we shall watch the game so that next time we choose right team if things go against expectations.
124  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: So traders, how much You lose? on: December 19, 2019, 04:02:09 PM
I'm aware to the risks that I taking in trading and I know thay my money is not safe in trading. I'm a type of trader who do not put all eggs in a basket so meaning that I have good risk management. Loss are unavoidable so even a professional traders also experiencing losses. I also experiencing losses but it is only small because of my risks management where I do not go all in when I do trading.
You shall also discuss your risk management strategies and tricks with others here on the platform because we have often seen new traders complaining about their losses and lack of guidance. You will not lose anything but they are going to gain a lot with little help from you. Well this is a general technique of not investing into one coin your all money but this is so general. Discuss detailed things.
125  Economy / Economics / Re: Fiat Vs Cryptocurrency, which would you choose? on: December 19, 2019, 03:14:00 PM
I really like crypto, but at this point is someone where to give me a million dollars, it would just be more convenient to get cash.

We're still in the early stages.
Why is cash more convenient? I think if you get $ 1 million from someone, you need to explain the money to the bank and state in your country. A lot of trouble comes after that and you need to pay taxes on that money. But if you get $ 1 million in BTC, no one will investigate you and you won't have any trouble
Yes both of them are good and both have different abilities to give us all the needs of life. We can use crypto to buy things online as it saves our time and gives us reliable shopping opportunities but with fiat, we can buy things by hand, as our life is so busy so we should use the only crypto to have needs for daily life even without disturbing our job.
Crypto is the latest technology and it is highly appreciated by users because they are acting as savings and investment and currency at the same time. This is the reason why people are highly interested in them and are not using fiat. Fiat needs to be carried safely and no matter how much you hold it; you cannot see any increase in its values. Moreover transactions with it could not be done within seconds.
126  Economy / Economics / Re: What will happen if the all countries convert to cryptocurrency? on: December 19, 2019, 02:39:31 PM
In my own opinion, since cryptocurrency is decentralized there would be a problem when everyone in the world have converted to cryptocurrency because taxes would be no more, so there would be lack of funds on making projects or establishments such as bridges, schools, hospitals, roads, highways, and etc.
Government will simply find ways to put taxes on it or they will surly come up with a plan to get details of your crypto savings. Government could come up with their own site for wallets ultimately having your all information. So no projects will stop even if everyone is dealing in crypto currencies. If all buying and selling will be in crypto currencies, how people will be able to avoid taxes.
This is really not a big deal for government to get information of your wallets until and unless you are using their crypto wallets. Government even if does not launch their own wallets, they are simply going to make deals with the exchange owners etc. in order to have information about the people who are having high crypto investments. They are going to put taxes on them. In short, government will try their best to put taxes.

Does gambling have a main purpose, to start with?

Do you believe we are here for a reason?

If you had no time to waste in your life, would you still gamble anyway?

some interesting questions
will love to read your answers.(and more questions)
There is no purpose when a lot of people is doing gambling aside from entertainment from the game we just play in gambling because it is all about the money,
We cannot deny the fact that money is important and that's why we play in gambling because we wanted to multiple or get an income in gambling hoping to win and get lucky to win the bet in gambling.
But a lot of people don't like gambling because comparing to investing in bitcoin it was riskier since you are putting money on the line but still it could pay off if you win the game.
Almost 80 percent of the gamblers play this game in order to make some good money. Why don’t people play other games if they only want entertainment? They play gambling because here entertainment is paired up with money. Money is always welcome often regardless of the source it is coming from. Money is money and people need it badly in present world for maintaining status and living a good life.
128  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Has anyone here tried Betadvisor.com? on: December 19, 2019, 01:45:47 PM
I am on betadvisor you can have a look at my picks here:
I use it to track my picks so that they are verified by a third party. The layout is good and easy to use and it keeps some good stats on your picks.

https://www.betadvisor.com/en/tipsters/football/getrekt.html
You seem to be having quite a profitable month so far. +817 points, meaning €817 of profits had I followed you. Probably more since I used to bet €100 per match and your bets are 40-80. I noticed that there are no previews or explanations what you base your tips on and reasons why someone should pick exactly those tips. Maybe adding some info to the tips can be good for you to get a better ranking on the site.
That is amazingly high amounts of earnings in gambling and I believe that you are in this game for a long time. You must have nice experience and extensive as well in this game. But I have same concerns that do share your tricks and tips with the newbies who want to make some decent money from this game instead of losing it all to the house. I believe we gamblers shall help each other in order to develop positive connotation of this game.
129  Economy / Economics / Re: what makes us good investors. on: December 18, 2019, 04:37:11 PM
This is always happening to me most of the time, I sell my coins when the market is in downtrend especially when I really needed it or emergency purposes. I cannot blame the market but to myself the outcome of my decision. Yes, it is my decision so there is nothing to blame but myself when the time I will regret selling.

You shouldn't regret such decision. You said so yourself, it's an emergency, I don't know what it is for, but for example to save someone's life, or due of a payment or something. Whatever it is, as long as it's an emergency (urgent), or any significance at all don't regret it over money. Why? Money can be earned again and again--life(?) you can't, time(?) you can't.
There are certain things which have no comparison with money such as time, someone’s life, health and freedom. Undoubtedly money could be earned again by working smartly but once someone dies, there is no way you can get them back. Always we shall try to make decisions with cool mind and keeping moral values in view. Money is not everything that a man needs for a survival and peace.
I know money is not every thing but people are and we really need some people to be with us if we really want to live happily but mate it takes money to live in this universe and we apply different ways for it as investing is one of those. We should learn investing at right time only then we will be able to obtain our goal behind investing our money.

For as long as we are still living then there is nothing to regret about, we should handle our emotion and learn to let go in times that we can face situation just like this, there is no perfect investors or traders, we are all making mistakes, we all learn, we do mistakes again, learn until such time that we become experts and can easily read the market and the project flow.

Yup because we can start all over again when we alive. Loses can be recover but for now time must be important to do and also there are a lot of investor do invest because they take risk to get an easy and fast money for them to gain a money with a high value because of too much greedy and at the same time they believe in luck.
Losses may get recovered but the time you lose cannot be recovered at all and now a day time is your first and real wealth. Too much greed can never let you survive hardships and losses. It rather puts you in hell tougher situations. I am of view that one shall practice yoga or such stuff that gives control over emotions which will ultimately help controlling greed. Luck also only supports those who work hard.
130  Economy / Economics / Re: Where should we focus this year? on: December 18, 2019, 04:03:36 PM
the thread was posted last year 2018  . 2018 was late imo and people only realize to start or to focus on blockchain tech ? if they do that they are now behind because others are already done with that but they can still catch up and make thier performance better so that they can won the competition  .

anyway we are now currently on the year 2019 and its also about to end   , blockchain is also more popular .  i think people are done with it and now foccusing on other things   .

it's never too late to start. It doesn't matter what year it is or people say oh you're too late the others are more than that.
as long as development is still needed there is no harm in trying, remember the more you try the more opportunities or opportunities that will arise.
There are people who doesn't want to make investment because they think that they are late. They are still many opportunities in the market and they should not be discouraged. Changing their mindset can help them to be a better person. Once they able to change their mindset then they can see the opportunities by making investment in the market. They are not late and they can still say that they are part of the early investors.
besides changing our mindset, we must be aware of the risks, so that panic will not come later. especially to invest in cryptocurrency, of course, is different from investing in property that tends to always go up in price. therefore the courage to invest in crypto is currently needed because the price is cheap
Crypto currencies are giving major investment goals right now and all those who have enjoyed huge returns from it back in 2017 are so willing to invest into bitcoin and other famous coins in order to secure their profits from future pump. Keep in mind that if you invest when others have doubts, it means you are taking a risk and only those get big returns that stand out of the crowds.
131  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you use betting tips? on: December 18, 2019, 03:32:43 PM
From my personal experience I used, I paid about $ 70 a month, and I got a ticket every 2 days with odds 3-4, I was not satisfied, I guessed poorly (more precisely that tipser), out of 15 tickets, the hits were 7. which is very bad for that odds. I lost a lot on that, so I'm interested in your experience?
You can get free tips in this forum. Never pay for tips as they also rely on odds and some research from sports analyst. No crystal ball used to tell who will win the game so if they can do it, why cant you. Just be reasonable when selecting a team or a player. Looks for the past wins, streak and ifs a team, looks if they are complete or if someone is injured.
This forum is amazing because you can find answers to most of your questions and that too free of cost. You can share your problems and receive honest suggestions from users. As far as paying for gambling tips is concerned, this is just a sophisticated way of taking money out of people purse. If they are so sincere, why don’t they fix percentage in winning and take that from player if he wins. They don’t guarantee win so it’s better to do your own homework as you stated.
132  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What matters most to online casinos? on: December 18, 2019, 03:20:41 PM
If I was to put this into any perspective, I'd say that what matters most to online casinos is the quality of players visiting the casino. Ideally, you want a large number of people visiting but in the end if most of these can only afford to play once in a while and law bets, then player quality becomes paramount. because these would be people willing to throw in a few thousands or thereabouts for a quick game or whatever - it makes it all more worth while for the casino
For casinos, undoubtedly gambling is a business and the source of income for them is the players who are ready to invest good money in their casinos. They don’t want those who are investing little and playing once in a blue moon. Every business as you quoted prefer quantity over quality because this is how they earn. At times it appears that they are fond of addictive gamblers as they give them business.
133  Economy / Economics / Re: How do manage portfolio efficiently while having a full time job? on: December 17, 2019, 04:33:04 PM
I suggest that you go easy on trading, but rather start investing. Think of them like shares on a stock market, you invest on some conpany because you believe in their future success. Same applies to cryptocurrency, you should start looking in the long term, but still must be updated of the latest trends and news regarding cryptocurrencies. In that way, you minimize the stress brought by dumps, have more time to do your job and to relax a little bit, and just sell when you think it won't go higher anymore.
I also believe in the pairing of investments into crypto currencies as well as in real life investment markets or fiat/ conventional investments such as stock market, real estate etc. pairing up of these two readily increases the chances of profit and decrease probability of losses. 70 to 60% of your investment money shall go in bitcoin and rest you can go with conventional market.
134  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How Much Money You Need To Win To Stop gambling, Is This Possible. on: December 17, 2019, 03:54:32 PM
I have unlimited goal  Cheesy
You know what ? If I win then I will come to play the next day this is gambling I've tried to have a target but it never worked and I'm back playing.
only lost can make us stop and head for the bed ( but can't sleep ) lmao

That is what gamblers do if they win the money. But I think you should not come to gambling in a short time because your mind will think about to win those games, and that will not allow you to win. It is hard to win big money so you should think about your luck that will not always come to you.

Perhaps, you do not have to lose all of your money before it makes you stop gambling. If you can stop while you still have money, I think that would be better than to lose every money in your account.
The thing is when you win game; you get emotionally excited and are totally unable to take any solid decisions. In order to win big bets in gambling, one needs to be very much diligent, present minded and calm. These things help you take right decisions on crucial times. Above all you need a great luck. Indeed when you win any bet, don’t instantly bet again with that money. This will make you lose money.

some interesting questions
will love to read your answers.(and more questions)

For me now the main purpose of gambling is to make more money but I got introduced to gambling for the fun associated with it. Also, I played for few months just cos I liked the game (Especially card games) and all the tactics associated with it. Though now, it is just to get monetary benefit out of it.

Be cautious just in order to make more money you do not end up losing more money beacuse it is quite possible that you may win little but your greed to make more you end up playing more and that can take ur money as longer you play more chances of losing increases .
In gambling, to keep your winning a winning and avoid unnecessary losses one shall always be able to control greed at critical times. The most critical time is when you have won the bet and house is offering you more money for playing further. That is the real time when a player has to stop betting. Usually casinos try to manipulate the games which make you lose even more than what you won.
136  Economy / Economics / Re: Fiat Vs Cryptocurrency, which would you choose? on: December 15, 2019, 10:55:37 AM
both are true. and both have almost the same function. It is just. crypto has no central control. and fiat has central control. crypto has equality in all countries. but it must run on the internet. while fiat can be used offline. so which is better? both are good. about security. crypto is superior. about usability, fiat more broadly.
The selection between fiat and crypto totally depends on the needs and availability of resources for the user. If person wants to make high transactions in short time without paying huge transaction dues than crypto is great. If the person wants a currency as an investment, again crypto will be the choice. But if there is no internet or you are living in some remote area, then fiat will help you in making deals easily.
137  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Addiction at its Worst! on: December 15, 2019, 10:36:53 AM
Gambling addiction is very bad and very difficult to get rid of. We can easily say that it is the worst type of addiction, especially when it is necessary to compare with other addiction types. On the other hand, this type of addiction, which has a very serious damage effect, not only materially but also morally, has unfortunately survived many people's lives. Due to this addiction, there are various bad events such as separation, rejection from adoption, friendship deterioration and being a thief, causing many people to find suicide in some cases. Gambling should only be played for fun and one must protect himself from addiction.
The real issue is that you never know exactly the time when you are getting addicted to gambling. Everyone tries to gamble in the beginning just for fun but end up in getting addicted. Of course people don’t want to waste their energies on an addict to make him or her normal person. They need therapies and even their families support them only in the start. No one is ready to pay for their therapies. This is why separations happen.
138  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Social experiments in the world of gambling on: December 15, 2019, 10:17:00 AM
I always say that it should set as a lesson to him.

I don't encourage people to gamble since my parents raised me to be that kind of person. If someone asks for a suggestion about what should they do after suffering from a big loss I would just tell them that don't ever gamble again. They can't accept their loss despite knowing that they have a higher probability of not winning and they can't afford to lose in it so better keep their distance on gambling. They should take responsibility for it since it is their decision.
These people are usually the ones who are afraid of working hard and want to make money in short time. I personally feel that media influences young people a lot in this regard. There are a lot of movies that show protagonist as poor who then becomes a successful gambler with a lot of wealth. But that does not happen to be case in real gambling. We shall stop our friends and family from getting involved into this sin even if they are doing it for fun.
139  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What is for you scam project and what is for you good project? on: December 15, 2019, 09:56:27 AM
everyone has a different opinion. when I look at telegrams, many people say that "this is a good project" but in my opinion, it is a pretty bad project.
however, my opinion of a good project is when their concept goes according to plan, and the team is very professional in covering up the shortcomings of the project, for example, binance. and a scam project is a project that contradicts that principle. that is the main point.
You should not depend on only one resource or few groups and people of telegrams. Go for the news and search about the project by your own. Any project that gets listed by famous exchanges can be given a try but others should be ignored. Binance is a huge name in the market; it is among the top three exchanges with users in millions. You can easily trust its digital coin and the projects that are supported by Binance.

I am still studying and trying to improve my trading, I admit my greatest enemy is greed and I am really disappointed about it but all I can do is to keep on trying because trading is what I want to do and I see myself trading still in the next 5 years of my life.
You can always turn your weakness into your strength. Do not hate what you have or what you fell rather come up with a way to overcome and tame such stuff. It is not only you who are greedy but every one of us desire a luxurious life and there is nothing wrong with this. If you have skills to make money some way, why won’t you? Try trading with bitcoin using a demo account and then fulfill your dreams.
