It is. Yes, its one of the entertaining activities which really requires money involving risks. Those who have enough money and wish to entertain themselves, can seriously get into it.We do have serious players risking to gain profits besides. Everyone is slowly drawn into it. Once adicted to it, it must be harder to get out.

I'm consistently putting small amounts into ETH and LTC as a kind of emergency fund that likes to grow.  When, exactly, do you guys think that the recent surge in BTC will result in a "catch up" surge in ETH and LTC?

maybe you need to hold in few more years, so you can gain more profit by holding your bitcoin my friend
for sure, bitcoin is good for long term investments, maybe after the halving even of bitcoin in the next year, the price could surpass the past highest price my friend

It's simply because "That's Called A Marketing", Every casino/sportsbooks always give his best performance comparing with another casino. They want to gain a new customer with a promotion or something like that.

Only 25% for btc ? And 65% for alts  ? Hmmm i think its better if you increase your btc investments more than alts because alts are only following the trend of btc   . btc will give you more income in my opinion   . by the way i only recognize 3 coins on your list and those are kucoin shares , dent , zcash  .  i dont know the other 3  ,  are those coins new ? 

INvestors on gambling sites will get benefits but it is not going to increase the number of gamblers on any gambling sites but when there is a bullish trend there will be more new people coming into the people so they might get attraced to crypto gambling sites as well but this will happen when there is huge bump on the prices.

Yeah, that would be ideal back then when the market was good. I would've done the same; just imagine the financial and time freedom. Quitting your day job nowadays is ludicrous, well I guess for common traders that is, it's just too risky. The best way to mitigate risks is to gamble with small amounts from your salary and never go all-in. I would say about 10% of what you make in a month is a good start. You can also join and work on bounty campaigns during your free time. That way, you can get a hold of alt coins without spending a single cent. That only risk there is working for nothing; when the campaign turns out to be a scam.

I think now there are such negative news is that they are impossible to hear , even the example of bitfenix that he can Scam .

There is also a lot of rivalry between people who are gambling but I don't think that one of the reasons why many people are playing. In my opinion I think people are competing with themselves and not with others people so that they can beat their old person and win more.

It's okay to become frustrated, but we need to move on because if we survive in the end we will gain enough profit. I am confident enough that in coming months to go will give us hope to cope up all struggles that we've been through lastly.

For newbie you can start doing a social media campaign (Need a lot of friends / follower to get high rewards)
If you have a high ranked bitcointalk account, you can start doing a signature campaign who gives you more rewards.
For a creative designer, you can do a youtube or blog campaign.

I'm pretty sure that when Bitcoin starts to pump some altcoins will follow too, i don't know why it always happens like that although it is not like that before. But when tons of shitcoins exists the attracting power turn to Bitcoin after all. Unlike before when Bitcoin dumps the market would switch to altcoins because it is pumping. But now, i don't know what happens.

I think the better word is "stable" instead of "down" for it's been rising slow and steady for several months now. To answer your question, bitcoin simply needs more investors and holders. The basic law of supply and demand always comes into play. More holders mean less supply, which gives it a higher value. This could be be achieved by mass adoption and possibly regulated by the government/s.

For what i know Binance is a strong exchange to be taking out of the picture just like that They have an established Ecosystem loved and supported by the community which is enough to protect such exchange

Judging by the GitHub project, the team is actively working and making updates, so I believe that the project is more promising than most of the coins that are its competitors. Moreover, it is worth considering that ADA is on the 10th place in the coinmarketcap rating, so it deserves attention.

Today again the price of Bitcoin increasing which it crosses the value of 5500$, which it is not the indication of the bull run but it is the indication of the market recovering. At the same time, the price of all altcoins is struggling from the past three weeks with the increase in the price of the Bitcoin.

Of course, we will always need cash. This is the simplest and still the most common type of payment instrument. Non-cash money gradually increases the volume of its use, but cash still remains the main type of payment instrument. Non-cash payments are convenient to use for large purchases, and for everyday small purchases it is most convenient to use cash. Cryptocurrency will not be able to significantly affect the ratio in the use of cash and non-cash money.
