The "secret" of gambling is to only play for fun, don't ever play to make a livin'. Maybe do it for some beer money or something depending on your financial situation of course. There will always be a house edge no matter how small, as long as it exists you will lose money in the long term.
It’s good to play for fun but don’t lose your goal as well gaming is being use to make money. As you said some don’t have job so to avoid financial crises they gamble to gain profit. We can become both good earner playing with. It’s the only good secret to control your emotions  and play with your full capacity to win.
142  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Would you buy a house? on: September 19, 2019, 07:03:47 PM
I would like to hear the story about selling the house. I have some question for you.
Did you sell your house taking the Bitcoin?
If you sold, how long did you hold the bitcoin?
How much did you profit after selling the bitcoin?
Maybe it will be a fantastic story. So you could share your story.

There are stories about people who sold their property for bitcoins and litecoins before 2016. Now this people are millionaires cause they decided to risk. I believe that it`s still a risk to make such decision to sell your house for bitcoins, same like buying a house and spending bitcoins. Both are investments, in crypto or in real estates, and like every investment it has it`s own risks.
Real estate investment is safer, but you can`t count on huge profit like with bitcoin. I would stick with bitcoin, if I have a house to spare I would sell it for bitcoins, but not a chance that I would buy a house now with my bitcoins.

Investing in buying lands was a good choice to begin with since the price goes as higher as the time passes by. Instead of buying it on gadgets or stocks I would prefer buying lots and make them into apartments which is I deemed more profitable and you have the opportunity to sell it if you want to drop it.
Yes this is good plan it’s really good to buy some apartment than buying land as a can let it for rent and make money but saving crypto is also  important dealing for me. There are allot of  people who are doing this as a business they use to buy apartment and hairs them for rent in areas but I am saving my crypto to buy a huge house in future i am sure my dream will come true as day by day crypto is gaining value

It's like some kind of gambling. And obviously people like to buy lottery ticket in order to test their luck at the same time. If luck favor like playing cards and if it's your day then there high chance of winning the lottery. And if you get this one then I am sure your luck will turn. All the best!
Surely people wants to know how much they can gain from their luck using lottery. In other investments you can  earn with your skills but buying lottery is all about your luck the more you will be lucky so the more you will win. It really make us rich faster as at the single moment you will have huge amount so I like to try my luck.
144  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: crypto and gold on: September 18, 2019, 06:43:16 PM
Last week I saw the crypto market of bitcoin and altcoin all fell dramatically because there was competition in gold trading that made all prices fall, is gold investment more profitable than bitcoin and altcoin which are vulnerable to hacking.

for me crypto and gold is a good investments
but maybe the risk is lower on gold rather than cryptocurrency my friend, why ? because gold is real but crypto is a digital product  Wink

Well if according to you gold is real and crypto is digital then you should change your mind and think again. It’s really gona hard for you to keep allot of gold at your home because thieves can attack you but crypto has allot of safe wallets which is impossible to hack and block chain is the best example of it one more thing to love crypto is that crypto increase in price which gives profit at the end.
145  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: 5 Ways to earn crypto without investing or mining on: September 18, 2019, 06:12:38 PM
Great article.

I think the best way is to take part in bounties, as most people can do it. The article has a lot of good other ways though and it's a great read, thanks for sharing the content with the community.
Yes this is good content, if people don’t want to invest or mine they can join bounty campaign it will give good way to make money even without investing. In bounty people use to share knowledge and make high quality posts. Also those who have amount of money so they can invest in trading and get their profit. It’s much better to trade if you  have money in your pocket.
146  Economy / Economics / Re: Big risk ,big results. on: September 17, 2019, 08:20:30 PM
This truth is as simple as the world. The more you invested the more you earned, or the more you invested the more you lost. Everyone should evaluate how much he can risk.
That’s right we will have to take the risk if we want to make own money from crypto we will have to face this risk of lose and gain. If we want to make huge profit we will have to be ready to invest huge amount. The more we will invest the more we will gain as only real risk takers are good earners of crypto currency.
147  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling just for fun? on: September 17, 2019, 07:38:21 PM
It's not fund if you always losing your fund in gambling.
whats fund ? you mean to say fun ? what about if those loosers are freaking rich and they can just giveway their cash in exchange for thier happiness when they are playing a gambling  .

For those who are saying crypto gambling is fun, they sure had a huge fund and doesn't even bother if they lose such amount of money,
you can include me on that list because i can also say that gambling is fun but i dont have a big capital and im still afraid to loose even if i will only play for fun and not for the profit  .  there are some that also plays for fun but like me , they also minimize thieir play because money is hard to loose  for a comon man that are not rich .

I think it’s much better if you change your gambling strategy it’s not good to use anything for fun when you can use it in better way. If you are having fun at the same time you should remain concern to win so it will give you profit and if you become an expert player you can increase the amount to gain bigger profit I personally gamble to spend my free time with an enjoyable earning.
148  Economy / Economics / Re: Differences between an investor and common man! on: September 17, 2019, 07:08:01 PM
What are the things differ from mindset of common man with investor,please share your thoughts.

IMO,investors never want to take loans for their consumption like home loan,car loan,etc then just save money and will buy the things for their needs but common man like you and me will buy the things immediately when we get the desire of it using loans but we are paying 20% of interest to those kind of loans.
For my own understanding about the investors, they are also common man but because they have the ability to invest, they called as a investors. But it doesn't mean that investors doesn't make loan because sometimes they need the loan for investing it for any other project that he wanted. So investors and common man for me are also the same if that common man will invest.
Lol for sure investors are also common people as they don’t have 4 legs but here we are asking about the abilities as you said an investor must have good intelligence and he has more abilities to examine the market, he got extra patience and he must have good knowledge about market movements.
149  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Shopping using crypto? on: September 16, 2019, 06:26:53 PM
In my opinion, this is too slow and not very convenient way in comparison with paying with a credit card in two clicks.
I hope that one day a service will appear that provides the most convenient and fastest services for paying for anything on the Internet using cryptocurrency.

Maybe it happens if you already have several families or you have become a grandfather who can see such technology on a screen. With fast time it might not be granted.
To see such progress in technologies one will not have to wait that longer i think even now all over the world crypto is providing facilities and people are even at age of 90 living in modern era buying and selling is available in markets and not so long but after few years crypto will get great value in market people will be able to buy things with crypto.
150  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ethereum: 2017 vs 2019 on: September 16, 2019, 05:46:34 PM
A lot of people are getting disappointed in ETH and it is totally understandable. While BTC is raising and making another 50 percent price increase, ETH is struggling to achieve at least 200 bucks per coin which makes me think that it should be replaced by a more competitive coin.
No this is not like this I think now same as BTC and other altcoin like ETH is making progress and time to time increasing in price. Recently I have notice that after bitcoin ETH is the most struggling coin and even now it has millions of fans and investors I know it’s time to wait but in 2019 I am sure ETH will active good market value.
151  Economy / Economics / Re: Crimes involving crypto have risen on: September 13, 2019, 07:02:07 PM
talking about crime,  you can see it every day in the news, or in the media. very difficult to stop it, even the authorities have also tried to stop it. both in the real world or on the internet, it is indeed always increasing. In fact, today I read something interesting, which links bitcoin. some people try to use the money they steal by linking it to bitcoin.

https://www.coindesk.com/cybercriminals-selling-hacked-fiat-money-for-bitcoin-at-10-of-its-value
Agree with you mate all around the world we can see there are people who use to do a lot of crimes but crypto has no connection with them as we only can stop them by taking actions but as i said it’s not possible to remove crimes from roots so better don't give attention to it just invest your money and get profit.
152  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling as a profession: there's people who live out of gambling? on: September 13, 2019, 04:18:18 PM
The chances for us to win in the sports betting will not be too big if we don't know how to pick the right sports because that will depends on how good we know about those sports. If we don't have any info or knowledge, then we will be difficult to win. And to develop the skills is not easy because it will need effort and practice in years so we can get the experience.

I'm not saying it's big or easy, I'm saying it's possible because there are people who are proven to be successful in sports betting.
Unfortunately, if we look at the rate, there's only a small percentage of the total sports gamblers who are really successful, but if we make an effort to pursue, who knows we will be part of the number of successful gamblers. 


Yes, I don't think that they can make a living, but if they can win so much money, then they can make a living from the gambling industry. But that will be only a few gamblers who can do that.

We have different opinion but I will respect yours, but hopefully one day I will be able to prove it to you by my experience that I can make a living, and hopefully you will believe me if I show you some proof.
Agree with you we all can become good gambler and we can make good amount of income from gambling as a profession o like to gamble in my free time it’s not my whole earning resource but almost all my earning is about gambling its my additional job which supports me allot to reach my daily needs, so to you as well good luck.

I don't think not all of them. Though there are a lot of gamblers that earned a lot, there are still a lot of them that lost a lot. If you really have the skill, I encourage to gamble since it will create you instances and paths to success. They said that when you enjoy and like what you are doing, it is already a success.
Yes lose and profit use to happen with the concern of the gambler if you will not gamble properly so you will be in lose but better never let your emotions spoil you just gamble it has allot of profit only be patient and try to gamble skillfully.  Be aware of those things which leads a gambler toward success after that you will get huge profit.
153  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Crypto hodling as a form of gambling! on: September 13, 2019, 03:22:00 PM
In every form of investment, it means you are a risk taker were you are willing to gamble you capital. Therefore, if you are holding the alts for long term the risk was very minimal if the coin you bought are really promising and has a potential in the market, but if you choose the wrong coins even you hold it for long term, in the end you loss will loss it.
No doubt to win in crypto it’s really very important for you to have promising coin now a days all coins are good but the most promising Altcoin to hold for long term is bitcoin and Eth. In gambling it takes time to search decent website but the holding is good for bitcoin and Eth the most. Risk is the part of our life so never be afraid of taking risk.
154  Economy / Speculation / Re: Strength of Bitcoin on: September 12, 2019, 08:19:26 PM
Amazon already accepted bitcoin once,
as far as i am aware, Amazon has never accepted bitcoin.
there are tons of third parties that you can go through to buy from Amazon if you could trust them but that has nothing to do with the company itself!

Quote
I mean yeah surely after bitcoin dropped like crazy they started to think it may not be a great idea and they removed it
wrong.
steam which is the only correct one in your comment removed bitcoin when the price was rising back in 2017 and they removed it because the fees were unreasonably high. mainly because the games they sell usually worth less than the fees at that time!
But no matter who not adopted it and who removed it. With the upcoming development for the processing of bitcoin we all are sure that they all will start accepting bitcoin for their services. As we know the bakkt will be started in the coming weeks which will be a great platform for these institutions to adopt bitcoin because it will solve the question of security.

156  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I don't know how to trust a gambling site nowadays! on: September 12, 2019, 03:37:15 PM
Why nowadays when there's a gambling site that offer a bunos on your first depost it seems like scam?  Especially if the bunos is to much than your initial deposit.


If it's like this, we can be sure the site is a scam. How could the bonus be greater than the deposit. it's really very silly in my opinion. And sites like that should be avoided and don't play there, it's better to find a real gambling site even though there is no bonus.

I agree. Things like that are indeed suspicious. But sometimes there are also sites that do that and I don't know whether gambling sites are scams or not. And it's better not to do it than we lose our deposit on the gambling site.
Well not all are fake or scamming but most of them are good and trust worthy but as nothing can be taken without hard work so that's why make research there's are huge number of sites but it’s little need to be touchy while choosing a site. Better get idea from bitcointalk.org there are so many people who can guide you.
157  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Marketing And Religion on: September 10, 2019, 07:20:43 PM
As we know that Gambling is prohibited in certain religions including Islam. If anyone does it, the earned money is not legal and is considered Sin.

But what if someone is promoting a gambling site on social media etc, will the money earned from it be legal provided he will never directly gamble ?
The decision of the religion is final, you can't offer it and ask to change the decision. Which is mean if your regilion has prohibited to gambling then all the part of it will be harmful as well. Either you playing it or even you just promoted the gambling site and the answer will be prohibited.


Yes if your religion don’t allow you to gamble then don’t gamble but it’s ok to gamble in fairly way in my religion as well it’s not allow to gamble but only in case if you were not having chances to lose as there is hard work and risk to invest your money in gambling then it’s ok to gamble but try not to use and wrong way for it.
158  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why Choose Lottery Instead Of Anything Else? on: September 09, 2019, 06:20:41 PM
To be honest, in a lottery online gambling platforms are I always doubting. Because I didn't see how they draw the result and what provably fair they have. The first thing that comes up in my mind is probably they will monitor the result and nobody hit the jackpot until they run and claiming of failure company. I tried how many times and bought tickets in our local lottery gambling but I never win even once, how much more in online gambling.

I still prefer on dice game and poker game rather than lottery gambling which ain't know how many chances of winning we had. Maybe 0.5%  Cheesy
If you gamble in the lottery, then make sure you gamble on gambling sites that are truly trusted with real provably fair and 100% paying. because sometimes we don't know how the site determines the winner of the player, right? moreover the chance to win in the lottery is not determined by luck but from the capital you have.

Also to be surer, you may read on testimonials about that gambling site that you want to participate in. It's just one google away. Not all gambling sites who claimed they're 100% provably fair are indeed provably fair. Yes, we may not be sure of how those sites come out with such results, so reading on other people's experience is the best way to know.
It is all your choice if you think that you should choose gambling with other games you can be good gambler but lottery is also good way to make money but in lottery it’s all about luck while in gambling its 50 percent in your luck. So if you ever find good website to buy lottery you should not lose the chance to buy.
159  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If You Win Big Will You Remember Your Losses on: September 09, 2019, 05:38:21 PM
I have a friend who wins 15,000 pesos or $300 the first time keno games in an offline betting outlet, he is so happy and very ecstatic about his winnings, I congratulate him and ask him how long before he hit the jackpot, he told me that it took him 7 months and he is betting daily at 100  pesos or $3 so his losses are bigger than winnings.

But surprisingly he did not calculate his losses all he cares about is he finally wins, how about you do you remember your losses when you win a big amount and do you calculate your losses and ask if the winning is worth it?

This is one of the examples on the dilemma about gambling since what only matters are the winnings and not the losings. In gambling, it creates this illusion that someone may think that they are winning but in fact, are losing due to the accruements of money along the process.

What makes this more dangerous is that it places the individual on a pedestal thinking that they are actually lucky, which would only start the cycle of gambling.

Good topic, I don't think that most gamblers remember their losses to be honest (including me). All they think of is that they just won and that's what matter most for them. And I doubt that gamblers realised that or put their losses on paper so that they would know how much money they have lost so far.  Grin

Once gamblers start to know and account their losses, that will only be the time that their discipline will manifest. Rationalizing every win and disregarding your losses would be very dangerous especially in the long-run and streak of gambling.
Yeah when we know our lose we will know how to make it again profit I know time to time things will be good for you but remind your lose abs never try to repeat your mistakes. Knowing your weakness and your strength is the most important thing so when you will recognize your weakness and reasons for lose try to overcome it.
160  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What You Should Know Before Playing A Crypto Betting Game on: September 06, 2019, 04:58:50 PM
And related to choosing the right gambling website, I always search on here first before I select on which site I want to use for gamble. I think it is enough if we can read the reviews from here because we've got so many members that will help us to find a good gambling site.

This forum will definitely help make the right decision where to gamble. There are many well-known and trusted members on this forum whose opinions I respect and rely on. This helps me to avoid double risks, I mean the risks of bad reviews or paid ones do not bother me much.

We could hope that they can learn from the other members so they can be able to avoid the double risks which are always be there. I guess perhaps we can know if the reviews were paid ones or not by reading the reviews itself and I think they are doing good reviews because the site has paid them.

It is better to trust people who are often playing gambling in the gambling site than to trust from the reviews because they can use fake reviews to make their site looks legit. Using small amounts for deposit will be better too if you want to check on how good the site so you can feel safe when you continue playing the games. But don't forget always to take care of your money and never use big money to play because playing gambling can risk all the money you have and you have a chance to lose all the money.
It is now very rare to get gamblers that play with big money because a lot of players have had very sad experiences by committing money into gambling. I am gambling on Bivest and despite the fact it is a well-known and very reputable site, I still can’t play with big money, the reason is simple. In gambling, you cannot trust any site and also cannot anyone at all.

I have long stopped believing in site review and this was after my experience with one new site that had very great reviews and it ended up a scam site. It baffles me really and I would always wonder if those reviews were real or made to believe.

We don't know about that, perhaps some big players use big money for gambling, and they don't mind to lose the money if they don't have luck. We don't have to use big money because that will make us not to stop the games, but it will give us a way to continue the games.

I never read the reviews on another website than in this forum only because I know that it is hard to find honest reviews. We can see the recommended gambling site from other members on here, and that means, we don't have to bother to search from the other sites.

Right this is not good to check each and energy website but better to stick with the one only and never change once you start to use a site for gambling. This forum is the best place to gamble as it contain all the information we need in our life. Gambling is best way to earn but only fair and well trusted site will be needed.
