If you are trying to say is bitcoin network then it is not controllable because bitcoin network is never belong to somebody, it is just there living and functioning because of the bitcoin users, investors and buyers, and if I'm going to answer your other question if Bitcoin is being control by China, my answer would be still No. There's no such thing that China can control all the Bitcoin that is being produce all around the globe. Maybe only the bitcoin in their country, but not in all the places.

Well, everyone have their own opinion about why they use bitcoin, but if you are going to ask me about why am I using bitcoin, it is because bitcoin helps me in my everyday living by earning some money with it. I'm earning bitcoin by joining signature campaign and my salary in a week is 0.02 btc in minimum. I'm sure that most of the bitcoin users around the world has the same reason as mine why do they use bitcoin, because earning money with bitcoin is the most coolest thing on earth for me without doing anything tiring. All you have to do is to post everyday and wait for your weekly salary and that's is great.

Thanks.

Gambling is very addictive and what you have said was all true, but I think it still depends on you on how you are going to manage gambling. Most of the gamblers not just lost their family but even themselves because of too much addiction. That is why Gambling is not recommended to do if you can't control yourself on doing it.

It's not worth of trying pal, believe me. All of your hard word to earn that amount of bitcoin in faucets will be just ended up with nothing when you are going to spend that on gambling. Instead of spending it on gambling, why don't you try to keep on growing it by earning more in the faucets or you can join the signature campaign here in this forum that accepts newbie account, it would be better that way.

It's more losses, trust me, been there done that. Gambling will just make your bitcoin like *poop* and it's gone before you know it. You might want to hold it rather than to use it on gambling which doesn't worth it. Why not do something else like Investing and Trading your bitcoin, it's way more better than Gambling I'm sure.

20 years from now, bitcoin would be the money that we are all using, there is no more cash just bitcoin and I think that would be wonderful because using bitcoin is free form hassle than using cash.

Yes, I do believe it is all about our luck when it comes to gambling. Because the percentage of losing is higher than the percentage of winning, that's why if someone wins in gambling then it would be his 1 out of 10 luck in gambling and once that number of lucks are gone, then his loses would be simultaneously.

I would rather invest that small amount of bitcoin in HYIP sites than to use it in gambling if I were you. Because using it in gambling would just make your bitcoin vanished in no time while if you spend that bitcoin in the HYIP site, there's a 80% that you will not going to get scam specially if that HYIP site is just running for just 2 days or more.

I don't know how much it will cost but I'm sure that it would cost a lot because, starting a gambling site is not a joke. It would take a lot of bitcoin and time to make one. You are going to hire someone who knows how to make one and you are going to pay him of course plus the bitcoin that you are going to use in your gambling site balance as the payment for the users. It is really a complicated one to start, it's not that easy to persuade people to do gambling in your site let's say you already have one.

If you mean online gambling that bitcoin is the bet, then you don't have to worry if that is illegal because bitcoin is completely anonymous so it can't be track by the government and if you are thinking that they can hack you by your IP address, then don't be afraid because Philippines Cyber army is not good in hacking, trust me. Anonymous Philippines is way more better than them.

For me the one that have more risky is the skill-based gambling because you don't know when will be the time that you are going to win and when will be the time that you are going to lose. Unlike in Trading, if you are not new in Trading and you have been doing Trading for almost a year or more, then it would be hard to someone to scam you.

I don't get it, you want to spend money on the internet, yes you can because you do have bitcoin. You want to buy porn by using bitcoin, yes you can because again  you do have bitcoin. You don't need to cash it out because you are just going to spend it on the internet like what you've said. So, why bother getting your voters I.D if you are not going to cash it out yet?

I would believe if your friend told you that bitcoin can be hack, but to hack the bets in gambling sites by just a calculator? I think that is impossible. There a lot of codes that is being generated by the code generator that changes the winning pattern on every gambling site, so the possibility that your friend that can hack the bets on bitcoin casinos are only 0.00000001 percent.

For me the first thing that I would tell them is they have to make a bitcoin wallet first so that their bitcoin would store their. Then  I would tell them next what is bitcoin, where to use it, what is it's purpose, how to use it, and so on. Then I would guide them in earning bitcoin, like on how to join in signature campaign in this forum and other earnings, even microearning in bitcoin faucets.

It not like I just like to have bitcoin instead of cash, honestly I want them both because I can, everyone can. We are just using bitcoin because it is additional for our daily income other than cash and we are also using bitcoin for the online transaction because it is fast and safe because bitcoin is anonymous.

I suggest you to hold it and grow your bitcoin because you know that bitcoin's price would go even higher than before, holding it and selling it 'till it hits it's highest peak would make you to earn a huge profit from it. You can also try investing it, and do some trading.

Not everyone who says "this coin is dead" is not all true, because most of them are only saying that because they are insecure to those people who have that coins that they don't have, people are always like that. But if you want to have altcoin, it is better if you will earn it to their faucet than to buy it. I mean it is not that hard to earn altcoins, so why buy one?, well, it's just my opinion though.

I don't think that gambling can be a profitable activity because it is really not. Some of us find gambling as a profitable activity only when they are winning. But not everyday are Christmas for them, sometimes they are just lucky. Gambling will just make your bitcoin disappear before you notice, that's why gambling is not really recommended for everyone who wants to grow their bitcoin.

If you want to do gambling with no lose, then it would be better if you don't do gambling at all, because doing gambling and you will not lose is really impossible, the house won't accept that. Most of the gambling sites winning chance is 47% or below so it is impossible for every gambler around the world that they can win every time.
