Because of some trading sites and local exchanges requiring ID's for verification, I don't find it as hindrance for buying bitcoin. As long as you do trust your local exchange or whatever you are using, it is going to be fine for you to verify your account using your ID's. But if you don't want those requirements, you can use virwox.

People should use bitcoin because it is going to be the future online currency of people who are living through the web. And it is very reliable to use this instead of using payment processors that are charging high fees for our transactions. Because of bitcoin we are secured and anonymous when purchasing something online.

I think that trading is a less risky business. In trade you always have on hand a product that has a residual value, and when investing you can stay with shares that are worth nothing.

For me they are just the same in terms of risk. But the different of trading and investing, is that investing is something that you will had to get profit by not doing anything but simply investing and depositing your money to a company and will get passive income. In trading, you need to monitor your trades and sell it immediately when the price is already high and buy at low.
13904  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To Gamble or To Invest? on: March 27, 2017, 10:14:29 AM
To gamble and to Invest are both risky. And of course I would rather go for Invesstment, because I like to invest in trading it is really mean profitable to me  if your just able to do it right. while in gambling most of the time players in the end fall in losses of money which is not actually good.

But gambling is riskier than investing because you know that you are taking more responsibility when it comes to investing which you know that you will make it better. Unlike in gambling, you are not going to take it very hard and you will be taking it on the lazy way of earning because you know that you can easier there.

Im storing them into my bitcoin wallet for the price to increase then sold them all at once earning funds to make a good profit in the end is the best feeling at all and buy the item you want for this year. i always reach my goal setting aim is one of my favorite and not letting them to become my dream.

This is what I'm doing for now since I don't need my bitcoin as of now, I don't have something to do for it but to keep on holding it. And when there's a need to sell it, I'll sell it immediately. Also I'm still in the state of planning what are the things that I should use those funds whether for spending them or just keep on saving it.
13906  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you consider trading as gambling? on: March 27, 2017, 09:39:51 AM
If you jump into trading without any knowledge and skills then there will be no difference between trading and gambling as in both cases you are depending only on luck to make profits which can be really risky so its always good to get into trading only after learning and gaining some knowledge about the market.

Yeah that's acceptable to consider that you are actually wasting your bitcoin and as well as your time, the same thing with gambling. As we gamble, we tend to aim for profit no matter how does the game goes if you lack of those things then in the end you are just doing the same thing.

Gambling is surely a waste of time and money and it will never give you positive results in long run but if you invest some time in learning trading then it can help you in making good profits on regular basis and there is less risk involved in trading in compare to gambling.

Not the whole gambling, it will be a waste of time if you are going to do it without even thinking. Just like in trading, you will trade without appropriate knowledge then you are actually gambling in the wrong way. And additional, there are people that are making bucks out of gambling and they are very few in this world, gambling is just really for them.
Those few people who are fortubate in gambling are those people whose patient and strategic enough. Gambling isn't waste of time since once you hit the small percentage of winning, all of your lose can be recovered. Gambling is very significant for people who doesn't have bunch of money to be traded. Thus, for by simply gambling, they can still have an oportunity to gain a huge profit which would give them a foundation to succeed in their life.

We can't tell if those people who are fortunate in gambling are simply patient and strategic. As long as they are going to know what they are doing, and they can simplify trading and gambling. Yes, gambling is good for everyone that has enough money to gamble and wants to make themselves had fun for a while and trading is good for those who really wants to get profit.

Wizards did play well for this match and they beat Cavs for this match. And look 12 point lead they made for this game. Looking upon their history they played close again with Cavs and right now they managed to get this match. Surely we don't what is going to happen for each match it's hard to bet nowadays.  Undecided

I don't think the cavs are running on just one man. Even if you remove james, thet're still better man for man compared to the other teams in the east. It's just that lebron's impact is that much that it will affect any team he plays on but all in all the cavs are a lot stronger than other people think they are without james

Of course it will always be a game for the whole team, Cavs isn't just James alone without his mates he cannot brought up the whole team. He is just playing good and that is being highlighted by the media and we can really see he is playing good most of the time. They are always playing like that, losing for a while and gets revenge back.
13908  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Giving up gambling is not easy on: March 27, 2017, 09:07:10 AM
Giving up gambling is quite easy, when you don't have any money left to gamble with, You will eventually stop gambling.

It may be easy for you but not for others who are severely gambling and can't get out of that addiction. It's why many are keep on making new years resolution and will stop gambling noted on it. But in the end after a couple of days, they are keep on coming back, addiction in gambling is a cancer we all know about it.

Who is a gambling addicted probably has traumas in life and uses gambling to escape from their own life. The person isn't sick because he is a gambling addicted, he is a gambling addicted because he is a sick person.

Everyone has the capacity to think bigger, to have hobbies and dreams, life can't be so low and restrict to something like gambling... Overcome your traumas and you will overcome addictions.

Probably it can be another reason why gamblers tend to go with gambling instead of other severe addiction to forget what they are going through right now. But overcoming your traumas is different on overcoming addictions, that's in my point of view. But peers are going to play a big part of it in able to overcome both things.

who is satoshi can someone tell me ?
Satoshi is the inventor of bitcoin together with his team. And no one really knows if that his real name "Satoshi Nakamoto". Actually you can simply google it out https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satoshi_Nakamoto so without this man, no bitcoin will exist and as well those supporting projects that are bitcoin inspired.

Charlotte Hornets vs Cleveland Cavaliers , bet for Cleveland to win .

I believe that Cavs will get this game because they are hungry for a win right now. They came from lost to Nuggets so I guess they will show Hornets a very good game but with a twist of revenge for getting another win.

But what if they fail to overcome the best plays of nuggets? and yet their opponent has enough power to bet them, specially with their best players. Will they have chances to make it for the next game to come? Or they end up failure to make it in a long run because as we can see from the previous game match they have, if you observe it really on the performances of their team, they've struggled much beating their opponents and I don't think they really have good preparations; as they bounces their ball on the court.

No they don't, they actually won this game and although it's good to see on how did Hornets did not just 'gave' this game for them. How about thinking the next game of Cavs vs Wizards? What do you think people about this game?
Wiz play good as a team. Cavs are built around one man. And that is King James. Without him in the line up they will be a second tier team. It does seem teams in the NBA do need that start player to have the other players to rally around. A Kyrie, Love or even a Korver. You will see how they do tonight if James is not playing like everybody is saying.

Wizards did play well for this match and they beat Cavs for this match. And look 12 point lead they made for this game. Looking upon their history they played close again with Cavs and right now they managed to get this match. Surely we don't what is going to happen for each match it's hard to bet nowadays.  Undecided

13913  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: March 27, 2017, 03:34:47 AM
Saving money in the bank and saving money in the bitcoin wallet is a form of investment it will generate interest income, and for me much better to have 50% of bank deposit and 50% of bitcoin wallet deposit for your money, because in bitcoin the value is rapidly increasing and we able to earn big profit easily much better income than bank.

Saving your money in the bank is not considered as investment. You are just allowing your money to be eaten by the inflation and you are lending your money to the bank at the lowest interest which is only a penny for them. I don't consider it as investment though saving bitcoin is really one to be considered as a form of investment.
13914  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Play with your profit or not? on: March 27, 2017, 03:23:05 AM
Good practise is to bank your winnings or enjoy spending them. You shouldn't gamble with your winnings but that's just the way I roll Cheesy

I prefer to do both of it and I don't want to lose my profit / winnings again with gambling. It's better to spend them into an enjoyable thing like buying your needs and saving it to your bank. Also it's a good thing if you are going to use that amount for investing into some good businesses or investments in bitcoin, like trading.
13915  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What Happen If Gambling was not introduced? on: March 27, 2017, 03:00:24 AM
You know....the whole insurance model is based on gambling.  Gambling goes way back in history and a very large part of our economic markets evolved from principles derived from gambling.  They have evolved to take on a different look and disguised to be morally acceptable....but the underlying principles are the same.

I didn't knew about that concept of insurance but I just realized it's a yes. Well nowadays, a lot of businesses are just changing the terms such as gamble into 'risk' which is acceptable by many. But if ever gambling wasn't introduced for sure those big people behind the casino's are going to be one of the poorest one and those people that are rich and became poor because of nonstop gambling will remain rich.

Yes, it's all in the math.  The only difference between gaming risk and insurance risk is that insurance is only designed to get you back to the "break even point," while gaming can produce an actual profit.  But, it's basically the same math....there's a pretty interesting history of the insurance practices in the early shipping days and how they resemble modern day gambling business:  http://www.bbc.com/news/business-38905963

Woah, that's nice thanks for sharing this link though gambling will always be gambling and these intelligent people did really made gambling as type of something good for the people's thought. Surely they made a lot of things different and good in mind of the people. I'm thinking if bitcoin doesn't have gambling industry, I guess we won't reach this price.

13917  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you use analysis when play gambling? on: March 27, 2017, 02:39:10 AM
Analysis could be helpful in so many sports mostly in sports matches because we can know about the playing strength and get accurate position about our pick so that it is very important for everybody.

This is the main way to make your chances of winning up in sports betting. And you are actually gambling your coins out there if you are not going to do this type of activity which is beneficial to all of us. It's proven that many are loving the way on how sports betting works because of some sports analyst broadcasting their speculation for some matches.
Not all the time give analysis a good chance of winning in sports. Either you anyze or not ehen it comes on sports betting it is very simple to know where you going to put your money. This is proven the odds that gives you small profitwill already had the chance to win the game about 80% chance to win i only do analyze when it comes of football

We all know about it that not all the time though you will had a very good analysis, you are not assured that you can win just because you'll had analysis. It depends on what type of games / sports you want to do analysis because as long as you are doing your part since it is your money, you do had the responsibility of it.
13918  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to make a good amount with 0.01BTC? on: March 26, 2017, 05:49:32 PM
0.01 BTC is like to make donation if we try to convert into huge money. If nobody can't afford to take big risk than he don't need to do this. I think invest into any altcoin at the moment is very profitable now all top coins are helping the people to make big profit.

Yes this is the right way of making good amount with 0.01 BTC. As we can see that the price of btc is getting lower this is the chance for purchasing some good alts that has potential to pump and after that just sell it when it's on the peak and get back to bitcoins. And for those risk takers that wants fast money, gambling is one way.

But the chances of making profits in gambling is too low and most of the times you will loose in it so the best choice would be to invest in potential altcoins with cheap price and wait for the price to pump and may be it can be a time consuming process but to get positive results its really worth to have patience and wait for certain point of time and sell them when its helping you in making profits.

There are people who are good in selling alt coins or in short with trading. But there are also good when it comes to trading but it's up to you on what you prefer to do and what do you think you are excelling. As I mention as the price is dropping just take the advantage of buying alt coins and right now it seems to be btc is pumping.

I agree, analyzing stuff will somehow elevate your chance of winning.  Many people lose in Sports betting because they lack information and cannot fully  analyze the situation.  And at the end, they failed to predict the right team and lost because they failed to fully analyze the competing team.

Yeah that's the main reason why many are losing when it comes to sports betting. They don't have an idea on what they are doing, instead of making some good analysis for each of their bets. They are just predicting without some basis that leads them to bad result and frustration and that's why analysis is a big help.
