12921  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: November 29, 2016, 10:44:20 PM
I know that drugs and sex are really not good at all especially when you are doing sex with different people, I just said earlier that, "addicted in a game" I said "Games" only and not some other kind of any addiction.
As for everything there is a proper way, as for sex you have to legalize your sex through marriage similarly you have to play gambling in a proper way and only then you will not feel the need to stop it and will even not consider it as addiction, for this purpose you have to set a gambling strategy which will protect you from losing money.
people think that if gambling for fun only it will never turn you to an addicton.

but i think it is all wrong , gambling itself contain something addictive , too fun to leave , too easy to make money , so no matter how rare you gamble and what for you gambling , it is just the matter of time to see people get addicted to gamble .

Many are thinking about that and saying to themselves that they won't be addicted but in the end they are falling into addiction because they are not able to recover their winnings and they are losing too much of their money. And that is now they are aiming, to recover their loses but instead of that single aim, they are becoming more aggressive and wants to recover everything that is making them addicted.
12922  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: MY gambling strategy to limit loss and make btc on: November 29, 2016, 10:34:22 PM
Before I given think of my strategy its important to have a fast Internet and try to avoid mobile sites I.e sports betting....strategy is not to bet all my bank roll and stay relaxed if I have 5 bad bets in a roll then that's a wrap for the day

- Internet speed is not a factor in gambling at all. and i say this from experience of someone with slow internet connection. it is obvious that a high speed internet connection is favorable but it won't affect your results at all.

- sports betting has no relation with being mobile site! that doesn't even make any sense. you can open the site on mobile and also the speed and what you use to visit the site has no effect on your result either.

- in the end if you have an strategy that thinks ahead about losses you don't have to wait between losses, just stick to the plan.
Internet speed may not be a factor in a game of dice, but it has a deep impact if you are playing poker since in most casinos you have a timer of about 30 seconds and if you are playing a turbo version you may have less than 10 seconds in order to make your play.

Maybe he is using many gambling sites and needs to load in his browser very fast that's why he is indicating fast internet as he gamble. I don't know if that he is intending to say. But still, as long as we have internet connection whether it is slow or fast you can already connect to gambling sites. And that's a good strategy he said, that limiting himself to 5 bad bets and he will stop already.

12923  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: There is no life in Gambling can you accept this....?? on: November 28, 2016, 11:21:25 AM
Yeah, I accept it, also i have many argues in it, because it is our mistake, that we are playing gambling and we think gambling is a good and one and only source where we get money in every time, and whenever we play gambling and we think we should win it and we want money and money.
I want to ask why we have not same thinking from our jobs and from our business. Because we know that the reality. So same situation is here in gambling, also gambling has a lose, and that is a point where we forget it.   

Those people who are making gambling as the only source of their income makes their life dependent with gambling. That's reality and we can't blame those people who are treating it as their major source of income and for me there is life in gambling and it just depends on how you are going to look with the advantage of it that can give to you.
12924  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling should be considered as a Sickness!! on: November 28, 2016, 11:08:55 AM
Gambling make a sickness if we loss, but if win will health and happy again. If we think gambling for rich, I think this is very imposible, too many peoples poor and die because gambling, before gambling we must ready to win or lose.

What many poor people dies because of gambling? That's is not even appropriate, many people die because of starvation and doesn't have food to eat or there are people who are dying in gambling because they are winning too much against their opponent and they are being killed so that they will not be paid by their opponent.
12925  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Quit Gambling for Good, think for your loved ones on: November 28, 2016, 10:56:49 AM
Gambling is not that bad, relax.

Maybe gambling is not that bad, but you can't relax yourself on it. Gambling is a serious thing, if you just play, not use your mind, Gambling will be a dangerous thing. And if you get addicted, well, it will wreck your life, slow but sure.
That's true, once you play gambling we just can't relax especially we are high bettors, but if you just play because you just want to enjoy and we are not aiming with the prize, well I think we can play gambling and we can relax with it.

And the most affected is not you but your family because when you are already addicted in gambling you tend to prioritize to recover your losses and you will set aside the things that you must do for your family. I've been with there and it always makes my head starting to heat up when they are talking to me about my losses. So, if you don't want to get to the point that your family wants to disown you. Then you must control yourself and don't get too much addicted with it.
12926  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your aim in gambling???? on: November 28, 2016, 10:46:33 AM
My aim in gambling is to make a lot of bitcoins by putting bets on tennis matches which I fully understand as a sports-person.
I want to buy a big tennis court and let people learn tennis there from me, that's my dream that I want to fulfill as soon as I get rich doing gambling.
Well, I also aim to be rich in football betting, but I think it is a very difficult goal to do if I do not bet large amounts. however, in a game of chance is very risky to bet large amounts, because it can only make you lose. so I'm just aiming to get rich while having fun in each betting that I do

I don't think you really need to bet large amounts to get rich. If you are a consistent winner, your gambling bankroll will increase with no time. You just need to keep doing and never withdraw. A very well know sports bet trader started with as low as 50euro, and now he drives a Ferrari, simply because he was that good, and his bankroll kept growing over the years.

But it depends on how he is going to become good with his bets and that needs to be running for a long time with his luck. And it really needs to have a big bankroll for that possible aim. Because even there are those people who are that good in sports betting and manage to have capital for small amount, still they are very few and we can't compare our skills and luck to them.
12927  Economy / Marketplace / Re: What kind of service/business would you create if you had funding and.... on: November 28, 2016, 10:09:38 AM
I would create a bitcoin exchange service. This kind of service helps the community get bitcoins and also cash-out bitcoins. Locally in our country, there is only one or two exchange here, and I think there is a high demand now for Bitcoin here in our country and elsewhere. Probably a good service is an exchange that has multiple currency options tat would be available to the whole world.

This is what I want to create also but it seems that there are a lot of bitcoin exchange service already in the community. So what I was thinking if I will going to create a gambling game and the theme of the site would be cock fighting and other some unusual gambling games, real life gambling games that has been digitized.
12928  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin make Banks disappear? on: November 25, 2016, 09:50:37 AM
I dont think bank can disappear. We still need each country to have their own central bank to provide what they own country needs. Different country have different needs and it is very hard to use one btc is classify everything. So the bank will still have its purpose but with more help from btc technology.

It is not really going to disappear just because of bitcoin and banks are being covered by the government. And if the government will allow bitcoin to make banks disappear then their power is not that stronger than we are thinking besides the government is getting big money for the people who are using the banks services so they will not let a big source of blood of the government will be killed by a young currency.
12929  Economy / Economics / Re: If you were in desperate need for money.... on: November 25, 2016, 09:46:05 AM
That's why it is always good to have an emergency fund so you don't get into this hole in the first place.
How I wish people understand that, some are just needing money for their daily needs and no intention to save. A person must be educated to understand how it is necessary I guess.

People actually don't think of it when they have the money in hand and they just spend everything without thinking to save some of it which can be of work later on, they even buy the things they don't need and later on they realize they shouldn't have done that.

There are some situations that we can't really avoid just like emergency scenarios but it is going to be needed with proper solution. Especially when a person is needed to have desperate money and if that happens to me, I don't have choice but to use the money that I've been saving for a long time but of course I won't use them all.
12930  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How Many Millions of People Use Bitcoin? on: November 25, 2016, 09:35:00 AM
yes, i agree with some of the comments here. it is impossible to determine the number of bitcoin users just by basing on the number of wallets being used.  one user may use 3 or more wallets or bitcoin addresses. just like me, i use 5 wallets. so that doesn't mean that those wallets are being used by 5 persons.
I think any method used to calculate the total bitcoin users will not be able to describe the actual total bitcoin users, let alone use a number of addresses, because only one user can have dozens of bitcoin address right ?

Yes you are right and we are not able to identify how many people are already using bitcoins. But base on what is happening with the bitcoins price, I guess it is now reached to 1 million users and this is only an estimation as there is no basis on how many are we already in the bitcoin economy. And with those statistics for bitcoin addresses it is not also a certified basis.
12931  Economy / Economics / Re: If Bitcoin had a stable price, would it still be as popular? on: November 25, 2016, 09:30:50 AM
IMO, if Bitcoin has a stable price, then it will be even more popular than it is now. The volatility of the exchange rates are forcing vendors to use third party payment processors such as Bitpay and Coinbase, which increases the expenses. If the exchange rates are stable, then the vendors will be able to directly accept Bitcoin payments.

I don't it that bitcoin will ever be popular because of its stability, investors are attracted to bitcoin for having unstable price and I can say that it has been effective way of getting more investors for it. So if many are thinking that bitcoin will be popular for having a stable price, I disagree because many investors will not take the risk if they see out of that stability.
12932  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is the best source of bitcoin nowadays? on: November 25, 2016, 09:23:32 AM
I am not a good trader so i dont know hwo to profit from there. However, investment in casino has been a great journey for me. I have profit quite a bit and it is making me quite happy for the easy maintenance.

Really? That's not new, you should be able to learn trading and with your rank I know you can easily understand how trading works. Many of the people here are earning great with trading and also upon joining some ICO's it gives good profit for all the people who are joining it. I can't identify what will be the best source, as long as it gives profit that's better.
12933  Economy / Marketplace / Re: How can we encourage local businesses to accept BTC? on: November 25, 2016, 09:12:08 AM

I don't think I need to do anything.Bit coins will be accepted by people, this is the trend of development of the times.

But this is a good chance to promote bitcoins to the business near you and you can just simply offer yourself as a business bitcoin advisor to those local middle level businesses. Since we already know that this will be accepted by people in the future that will be an advantage if you will introduce to them bitcoin by simply explaining them what bitcoin is.

It actually looks easy when we say it but it is really hard to promote bitcoin around you since you don't know if there are any people interested about it, because it may turn wrong for you if you introduced it to someone who is against bitcoin because we know that not everyone in the world like bitcoin like us.

Yes it is like you are selling fish near the shore, where most of the people doesn't have interest at all. But if you will just have a clear talk to the people that has business and able to explain them that bitcoin can be a good medium to their business for accepting orders and payments online. Everything can be done with talks as long you explained it to them, it will stick to their mind.
12934  Economy / Economics / Re: The dream of getting rich with bitcoins on: November 25, 2016, 09:05:10 AM
I am unable to save a significant number of coins. The few mBTCs which I earn every week from sig campaigns and other sources are immediately spend on paying utility bills and for other expenses. But still, I hope that I will be able to save a small number of coins in the future.
I think you need a plan to save and spend money, because whatever little income, if you have a plan for your finances I'm sure you could save some mbtc

I've been with that situation and I can say that you really need intensive way of managing your money. You just need to allocate it for each amount that it should be. I can say that it can be better if you will try to have some investments, because if you will just do the same routine you won't be able to prosper with that way.
12935  Economy / Marketplace / Re: How to make 1 bitcoin in a month or 2? on: November 25, 2016, 08:58:43 AM
work hard. You should not be wasting time and try investing into trading and reputable casino's already.

Are You serious, to say this?
Putting in the trading need a study, You are directing people to bancrupcy.
Calling betting in casino as work is a bad joke.

Yes I'm serious about it, he shouldn't be wasting time because time is precious if that's his belief then he will able to generate that amount with that way for a month. But you mislead with what I said about reputable casino's, I'm talking about investing with their bankroll casino's I don't intend to suggest to gamble.
12936  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Do you have any problems with your online wallet on: November 25, 2016, 08:47:50 AM
I am currently using coinbase.com as a bitcoin wallet for myself and i find it a little bit inconvenient because Coinbase's system try to prevent people from gambling. They can block our account if we gamble too much. If i had a chance to redesign coinbase, i would remove this function forever
I used three online wallets blockchain, coinbase, and coins.ph, so far I don't have any problem with that wallets, also coins.ph is convenient to me since I can easily buy bitcoin in my country and easily to exchange my bitcoin to fiat money, my main wallet is blockchain since I always play gambling and withdraw it to blockchain, I cannot withdraw to coins.ph if the bitcoin from gambling because if coins.ph know that bitcoin is from gambling they surely locked up your account.

I once used coinbase earlier but upon reading some feed back here I completely shift to blockchain. I don't have problem with coinbase at first, but I just don't want to have problem either so by following those people who are saying that they have problem with coinbase made me convince to shift. And as of now, I'm good also with blockchain and not even experiencing any problem.
12937  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you Still believe in Fiat? on: November 25, 2016, 08:40:18 AM
This is most stupid question I came across so far. I see no reason, why I should not believe in fiat! Fiat is a government backed currency and also backed by a physical asset like gold. So it is the most reliable currency so far.

On the other hand bitcoin is an anonymous currency and backed only by human trust. People are believing in it and hence it is going strong. If people stops believing in bitcoin, the price will come down drastically. So if any such things happen for fiat currency, the respective government will step in and take measure to stop the falling price. So fiat is the most trusted currency.

You got it, many are just thinking that bitcoin will replace the fiat / paper money easily. But of course, as long as the government will not recognize any new currency or crypto, we don't have choice but to keep on believing and using fiat money. So you just need to believe it and continuously use it as it has monetary value governed by the government.
12938  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What you like when gambling alone/ with your friend? on: November 25, 2016, 08:34:15 AM
I like playing gambling when im alone but i still prefer to gambling with my friends. because it can be our bonding when we are stressed in office and like the other said its not boring to play alone but it would be more exciting if you and your friends are both winning in gambling and together losing money haha. after playing gambling with friends we're gonna grab a drink so we can release our stress successfully.

When it comes to bonding time, gambling is good with your friends but if you are aiming for something profitable and you think that it can't be done successfully with your friends, then just gamble alone. Because I'm thinking that way and its harder to gamble if you are with your friends which is probably going to be an headache for you.
12939  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is their any safe methods to gamble? on: November 25, 2016, 08:28:39 AM
No there is no safe way to gamble and like people already have said there never will be any methods to do it safe because gambling is all about the risk, its in the game and without it it would not be called gambling.

Cheating is just the safe way. But I dont think it is that easy to do that. I am surr they are monitoring it 24/7 and if something is not in the line they will easily fix it. So still there is no safe way.
You can cheat but the question is can you withdraw the btc you have won? I guess no. They are vigilant now compared before. They are only putting small amount of btc or even empty sometimes in their hot wallet. So that the player cant withdraw easily and theres a time for the owner to invistigate whether its real or cheat.

If you manage to find a way to cheat, then go ahead and do it. However, you need to know that by cheating huge amount, they can detect easily and they can even forfeit your deposit.

That will not be an easy task to do if you are desperate to cheat the whole gambling site with the way you thinks by simply finding a cheat or bug.
Better not to give yourself an headache and just gamble the way you are doing it normally. I don't read any news that someone is able to become successful with that way.

12940  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your gambling strategy on: November 25, 2016, 08:23:39 AM
I use martingale strategy it is easy but high risk.. need big bankroll Smiley
I don't know what is the best strategy..
You need a big bankroll for martingale but you also need big limits in whatever game you are playing in your favorite casino, but I think martingale sucks as a strategy because you only need a few losses in a row to never see your money again.
Big bankroll has no use in martingale. It will just eat all your funds until no one has left. I'd rather risk my funds in random betting than using it in martingale.

Martingale is proven that it does not work in the long run. People just believe what they can gain in the short run until they suffer a huge losses than they realise the truth. Casino wont be around if there is something that can win against the house edge.

For me martingale is not even good in the first place. Whether it will be long term or short term, it is not been effective to me. And that's way starting by finding that out, I started to use no strategy at all. I just do gamble the way I was that I afford to lose and betting small amount for each bets that I made. And sometimes I'm just having that feeling where to bet or not.
