1341  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Getting porn sites to accept bitcoin on: November 19, 2016, 01:32:48 PM
Well, it's a good idea I think. Bitcoin is anonymous and it's perfectly fits for porn sites where mostly people don't want their identity revealed. They can use bitcoin to buy things on porn sites with no worries.

that is a good point but it is only considering one part of the deal. so yeah as an adult you may want to protect your privacy and keep your identity to yourself and don't reveal it online.

but for the sites, they are legally forced to not allow minors on their site and with bitcoin they can not know if their visitors are legal or not.
1342  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: If You Had 20Bitcoin To Trade With... on: November 17, 2016, 01:43:31 PM
95% + responses of most people seem to say they will devide their BTC for Trading, cold storage, casino gambling, Holding etc. So no one is prepared to go all in on one form of investment?

no because 20 bitcoin is 15,000 USD and no one is so eager to lose it all in one place. and we all know that any kind of investment comes with some type of risk no matter what kind of investment it is.

so that is where diversifying comes in. you invest in different things to reduce the risks of losing.

although i should add that in some rare occasions specially since 15K is not really a very huge amount, you can go all in something that you feel 99% sure about and thing it will reward you.
1343  Economy / Speculation / Nobody is talking about the reason for this rise! on: November 17, 2016, 01:38:13 PM
all i see is either people who missed the rise and now crying and wishing for a dip. or i see others who are singing moon songs.

but nobody is talking about why price has been rising, so please share your thoughts here about why the rise now?

is it
- Trump
- China
- SegWit
- India
- random?...
1344  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to play gambling in a smart way? on: November 17, 2016, 01:32:33 PM
To play gambling in a smart way just remember do not bet all your money in one bet because if that bet lose then you will not have a chance to recover that loss. So bet wise and do not be greedy you should control yourself when to stop. Most people just keep betting even they are winning already and they will end up losing after the end of the day.
I think this is the smart way to play gambling, don't be greedy and if you lose so much then just calm your mind and control your self unless if you don't want to all your all bitcoin.

in short i have found that the best way is that if you make a plan and then stick to it no matter what happens and what changes, you always stick to the plan.

this way, all the things you said like greed, losing your cool and ... will automatically vanish because you force yourself to always follow the same rules.
1345  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is the most profitable type of gambling? on: November 17, 2016, 01:26:05 PM
from what i have experienced so far, any kind of gambling can potentially be profitable enough for you when you are playing them because what all of these games have in common is that they all depend on luck and luck is what we can not predict and it can be kind to us enough to make us win big time.

although there are some games like sports betting which always lessen the effects of luck in our bets as long as we possess the necessary skills which are required to win in these games.
1346  Economy / Gambling / Re: Investing in btc casinos on: November 17, 2016, 01:21:10 PM
Bitvest has a very nice investment option and requires no minimum investment holding time.

Here's a little more about it:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1375103.0

I suggest not just put all your money in any one site because you may lose big percentage of your investment if anyone wins a big amount. So it is good to put your money in few good sites, so your losses will reduce in such worst cases. I never keep all my money in any one site.

Actually you may put all to one investment more over if gambling inveatment though because in the end house always get profit so it just matter of time when you will reocver it though. And you need some review about the site that you want to put your money too. Not all site give you some good payout from their investment and you need to see whether that site have a good traffic or not to get some good roi

I don't agree to keep all your money in any one site whether it is has got a super performance in the past because in gambling industry old performance will not give any guaranty that they will repeat same performance in the future. So to avoid sudden surprises, it is always good to go with diversification than sticking with any one or two sites.

What do you mean by super performance? Nothing has to do with their performance though and what they really want is to attract big whale to play on their site, so with all of my money put it on one investment (big amount), they will have big bankroll so the max bet that player can play is much more bigger so this will attract big whale to play and we can hope to earn from this. When you diversify it and make it become less investment better you need to stop though because the payout only some tiny penny

i think he is talking about their popularity and how many players they have attracted to play on their site. and i have to say it may seem like a good idea but at the same time the risks are still there but in another form.

imagine a famous site which has lots of players many of them whales, this makes the risk of one of those whales winning a big amount that much higher.

In the long run those hales will still be losers.

How do you think some gambling sites make big profits? It's not the fish, it is the whales that feed them.

well i wouldn't be so sure about that if i were you because most of those whales would leave with their withdrawal and don't come back for a long time to gamble again and when they do, they don't bring in their winning amount but instead they come back with the same old amount they used to play with.
1347  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is there new people coming to Bitcoin? on: November 17, 2016, 01:17:49 PM
So just curious.  I know its almost impossible to tell how many people are actually using Bitcoin in the entire world. Maybe this might be a forum moderator question as well I suppose.  Are new people actively joining this Forum?  Are new people actually coming on to Bitcoin. 

what you ask -as others have pointed out- is available in the stats page to everyone what you should have asked was where do they come from, as in their IP address for example which country sends the most visitors.

Quote
I have talked with several of my friends about it and had a couple of them even bite for a bit, but they quickly forget about it and they move on.  I guess I am just curious if Bitcoin trend is growing still or if it is more stable, or at a standstill.

Thoughts?

i have had that problem with my friends and all those who i have introduced to bitcoin. they all face the same problems: "no place to use bitcoin" and i guess until that problem exists we will have a hard time introducing bitcoin to others.
1348  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How serious is BTC to you? on: November 17, 2016, 01:12:38 PM
bitcoin is serious enough for me that i truly consider it as a currency on top of it being a good investment.

and the fact that i have invested my money into it when i bought as much as i could is enough seriousness for me!
1349  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC 15-11-16 @ 4882 CNY we will see 3xxx cny before 2017! on: November 15, 2016, 03:10:31 PM
speculation topics are getting worse and worse in this board!
first of all 3xxx is a 1000 CNY range which his 145.78 USD difference i mean who makes an speculation like that.

in other words OP is saying bitcoin price is going down from $711 to something between 583 and 437 in the next 46 days. now you see how ridiculous this sounds when it is not hiding behind CNY
1350  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: ETC to $100, when? on: November 15, 2016, 03:06:03 PM
Not ETH but ETC will see $100.
question is when?

the question is never when, it is always if Cheesy

coins like etherum always have a very short life time and they will all end up face down soon. it is how the market works, and this is nothing new believe me and right now all the hype is elsewhere like on the zchash which is dying also.

and the worst part is that ETC is a fork with much less interest from pumpers!
1351  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does experience matter in gambling? on: November 15, 2016, 03:01:24 PM
If you are gambling in sports and poker then surely you need experience as you have to do lot of strategy and analyze about the match before going to bet so that you can win the bet but if you are playing in casino or dice games then experience wont work their only luck is working


Yes those you have mentioned that doesn't really require experience are good for those people who are new into gambling. Because base on my experience, I am thinking just because I did some gambling before which is poker, I thought that all types of gambling games are the same since I am experienced one and how I know how it goes, but in reality things are different and experience do sometime matters and sometimes don't.

every game needs some amount of experience it is not like you can just go in and start winning, even in dice games if you go in without any experience or trying it first you will end up losing and there is no one here that can deny the effect of a good strategy for winning in dice or similar games.

and the rest of the skill based games goes without saying that they absolutely need lots of experience.
1352  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who can tell that when our luck come to us? on: November 15, 2016, 02:56:24 PM
I heard someone saying that fortune teller knows that when our luck comes to us but for me no because our luck is in our hands
Who made our luck? we because we are have own decision not the fortune teller can decide what we choose to bet..

Share your thoughts
 

i can't believe i am reading this on the forum! and i can't decide whether you are trolling or if you are really serious about this from your comments around here.

but what you are asking is a very superstitious thought which is not true at all. i mean if you are a kid then you believe in that kind of supernatural crap but not as an adult who lives in the real world!
1353  Economy / Gambling / Re: New Popular Dice sites similar to PrimeDice? on: November 15, 2016, 02:51:31 PM
This is my question from someone which is returning to gamble.
I remember when all people were playing full time on PrimeDice.
How is this changed now? Are there new similar Dice sites with a lot of people?
Thanks.

why are you looking for popularity?
don't you think it is better to try out the sites yourself and then see which one you like best. i mean go check the top 5 dice sites and play with their faucet payment and see how much you like them yourself.
1354  Economy / Services / Re: I am paying $50 BTC too everyone who.... on: November 15, 2016, 02:47:34 PM
i don't get it why are people arguing about this, it is up to 50 posts already.

it is very simple, OP is newbie which means no escrow no trust and no work.
1355  Other / Off-topic / Re: Bitcoin is a good investment now, because... on: November 15, 2016, 02:43:33 PM
yeah bitcoin really very good investment for now because bitcoin price is very stable and good to buy and there is a huge number of people are going to increase its price too much faster in the near future and i hope we will be get a good profit from bitcoin .

Is there any guarantee that the bitcoin price isn`t overvalued right now?

I don`t believe that bitcoin price will ever increase over 1000$.

There are many factors that stop bitcoin growth.

would you care name a couple of these factors that are preventing the rise here or did you just spam some random thought here?

cause i have been hearing the same thing for over a year now and price of bitcoin has been rising ever since.
1356  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you use analysis when play gambling? on: November 14, 2016, 01:26:50 PM
Just want know how much the gamblers who use analysis when play gambling and what kinds of gambling game? And do you think it is needed or not making analysis on gambling game or it is depend on lucky. Thanks for share your opinions and experience.
First Of all I Want to Clear That Gambling Depends Upon Pure Luck and No Analysis Skills Or Experience Needed in this Because If You are Put a Bet in Roullete then Its Your Luck if the Number You Choose Will Come.......
And I Don't Prefer Gambling Because its Just Waste Of Time and Waste Of Money.........

from your example i think you are only talking about once particular type of gambling and that is only one type of game (i am talking about games that are purely luck) but there are other types of games that  are mostly depending on the skills rather than luck although luck still is a big part of it.
for example games like sports betting or many of the card games like poker need skills and they reduce the pure luck effect significantly .
1357  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Could this be as big as Steemit? on: November 14, 2016, 01:20:41 PM
the basic idea of steemit was a faulty one and i have said this the first day i heard about it that this project is not going to become big. and in my opinion the only reason that steemit could even become the size it was in its glorious days was the fact that they were giving a lot of money away!
so it made a temporary state where a lot of people could post a simple post there and make a decent amount of money but ever since those days ended and everyone started to dump their easily gained coins on market, the price took a hit.
1358  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Everyone looses in the long run on: November 14, 2016, 01:16:10 PM
It is almost impossible to win in the long run with gambling because the chance of losing is ways bigger and those loses are going to keep stacking.
If you want to win more then you should be good in poker, there you can make it happen that you win more times then lose.
I agree with this, because for me poker is more on strategy than luck, once you know how to play poker and you are good by playing it, for sure you will win as often as you can with it than to play gambling games with just a luck.
thats right the advantage is always in your side if you know how to play properly its not just poker but also
sports bets the more you know the game the more edge  we have and it will easy to predict what will be
the outcome of our bets.
True, I also agree with you because in my opinion, it is really good to play gambling once we know how to do it or how to win in the game that is more on strategy instead of just relying on luck.

there is not much to know in most of the games that are around. for example what do you want to learn more about the dice gambling, you just go there and click on autobet and then sit back and this is true about all the other chance based games.

and about other types of the games which are less popular, you only need to know the basics and have a plan and that is all.

1360  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If Bitcoin was made illegal by your government would you still use it? on: November 14, 2016, 01:05:58 PM
this is an interesting question in my opinion and there are a bunch of interesting replies but i think it comes down to how hard will be banned or made illegal.

and as someone who lives in a country that still has no rule about bitcoin and there has only been talk about it i fear these things but i guess i will continue holding some in my cold storage in any case but reduce my usage.
