The Feds are also also technically very much upgraded and have tools to track the fraudulent practices being carried over the internet.So don't portray Bitcoin as digital currency which can be used for such criminal activities because fiat is also used for such illicit crimes and we can't blame a coin instead of people who are using it for such shameful activities.Btc is the most powerful decentralised currency ever built with immense benefits and security is one of them so don't try to defame it.

Yes. I believe that it will be only at first that he can run away from the authorities because as I can recall all of the people who are runners are always ended up caught up. I also believe that this guy was an IT expert or some like expert in technology because he used Bitcoin in order to have anonymous transactions. I can only see these kind of crimes and actions in movies and I was amazed in the real life though I am so sad because people making some advantages to bitcoin. I hope people might stop using bitcoin inn their illegal act or some unwanted actions. Hoping this guy caught if he did some horrible and bad things.
1422  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What games are best suitable for PvP gambling? on: March 06, 2021, 07:31:45 PM

It is one problem but there's a solution on it by talking personally to the opponent and setting a time and date for that particular match. There are a lot of games already that's integrated with gambling including the skins, items, avatars and other gaming rewards that you can purchase in game or through p2p marketplace for that game.
And this pvp betting is like p2p match but only has to set dates.

Right now we're just in the nascent stages of the big esports tournaments. It seems to me that every year this industry will grow more and more. Even now in Asia, popular Dota players can be as popular as football players. And you are right there are skins and items and many people buy them.

Did you hear about the game Axie Infinity? I able to play the game. It was a PVP Pokemon like type of game where you will battle 3 axies as a team against another 3-Axie team. Axie is what you called those creatures. And in playing that you can earn a coin SLP that you can change in some platforms so that you can earn some money in order to play gambling and support your financials. I think this game is a very good and easy game to play. It doesn't require a large amount of time to play it but it needs some analyzation and combos for your own earnings so that you can win. Try it and invest to buy a team.
1423  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling as a profession: there's people who live out of gambling? on: March 06, 2021, 05:38:54 PM
I know who makes a living from poker games, where your opponents are human and you can have more control of the game as you gain experience.
However, in gamblings of chance where you depend mostly on luck, its impossible to live this.
Sports betting could also be a way if the bets weren't to benefit so much the home. In these cases, I see that 50% is lucky and the rest of the statistics... still, I can't live with that.
Of course, making a living with gambling is just a silly idea, I am not intentionally complaining too much about this thought but even if we have certain skills, it's just a small bright spot in the dark, I've never seen someone who can survive just by luck, we can not think our luck is infinite, if that's true, many people have become rich without effort and learning. In order to live in this society, a job based on skills and knowledge is a prerequisite, use luck will not be sustainable, until one day this cruel world will give us a taste of suffering when we don't have a steady job.

It depends on the person on how he wants to live and what kind of work he wanted to. Gambling can be a good source of income but not that particularly for long term. I think as a second job or what we call sideline. Also, those who are owners of casinos are making it as their source of income, right? I can say that whenever you can spend some money in a good way and legal way, it is good and that's what you want. Nobody can say that it is bad or not enough because it will always depend on the persons actions not on the people who are talking about it yet didn't have any way of making profit for themselves.

Its either you hodl on it and survive or sell it and get nothing
That's it , people who knows Bitcoin but hesitate to maintain their funds inside are the people that usually cry when times comes like this.
They don't even have the guts to let their funds in Half to keep holding instead they keep selling when they think a dumping is soon to come and will be surprise that it is only for correction.
we as considerable as Holder ? we knew we are in a good side and not  hesitating to take a risk because we have knowledge and trust of what bitcoin can bring us.

Actually, I understand and I also believe that long term holders are definitely enjoying their lives today because of tge eperience and the possibility that they became one of the many people who became a multi-millionaire just because of holdings. For me, personally I feel amazed about bitcoin because I was there when its value isn't that so high and so simple. I didn't get a chance to mine or to hold but I able to experience the ATH wayback 2017 and I feel amazed that bitcoin is continuously  making some unbelievable things and having some wonderful and nee journey as tge year passed by.
1425  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Dont stay in crypto too long on: March 06, 2021, 11:04:23 AM
To run from crypto,  is like running from digitization  in this modern era. The  world  is driven my latest technology  and new ways of doing things.  In the near future, we are likely  to see full scale adoption  of crypto  especially  bitcoin  across the globe, irrespective  of governmental policies.
That's for sure, there's a lot of trials and some people doubt about bitcoin in the past but bitcoin survive, because we made it possible. Bitcoin is created for us, we dictate its future and if its people who adopt and use bitcoin, I don't think the government would still make it illegal knowing the fact that government is people, soon, it will be more regulated, that's it.

Actually bitcoin is the one who overcome it. Bitcoin have been in a lot of trials. Many people didn't believe of it because they say that whenever they hear about it, is thry think of the word SCAM. Bitcoin ain't scam if they just really know the things all about it and the basic knowledge of it. They didn't pursue or try in the beginning or in early and now most of the people having doubt about bitcoin is regretting their decision. People always tend not to trust to the things that might not true but always believe and eant faster growth. Bitcoin is very risky and I understand why they didn't want to invest on it at first. But the idea of not staying in crypto for long time is a very suitable idea and helpful.
1426  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: March 05, 2021, 05:12:20 PM
Davis would not play, I think I will be with Team Harden if that's what we call it now.

No Davis for Team Lebron and No Durant for Team Durant.

I already stated it, it's Team Durant vs Team Lebron and I think Team Durant has a lot of improve players although team Lebron is already proven a strong players. I think I will back on Team Durant here for a change, I love that Kawhi was in their team, he can defend Lebron James for sure.

Both have good and solid selections, it will depends from how those players will take the game seriously, since it's all star game

maybe most of them will not going to force  their game, and just be there to have some fun, I like following you with Team KD most of the time Kawhai loves to compete and with Kyrie, Tatum, Embiid and Harden the show might be entertaining if team LeBron also play's competitively.

Looking forward for the All-Star week!



I think the both team will be having so much fun in the all star weekend. They will definitely maximize the potential of their chosen team. I think this year Imma rooted for Team Lebron though the Team Durant is pretty solid too. And one thing I will wait is the debut of Zion's 1st All Star appearance. I think this game will definitely gonna be a dunk game. I'm also expecting to see Lamelo Ball but I think this all-star isn't gonna his time right now. I'm also aware that there are many new faces in the All Star players and some of my rooted players aren't there this year like D-Rose, Draymond Green and etc.
1427  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: After Tesla, others began to pay attention to Bitcoin. Is this the future trend on: March 05, 2021, 08:17:46 AM
The very rapid increase in the price of Bitcoin this year has made several large companies interested in Bitcoin. Moreover, seeing TESLA is without
a doubt investing large sums, convinced several companies to get involved with Bitcoin. I am not surprised that many other large companies will
invest in Bitcoin this year. That's why the $ 100k price prediction will be hit soon this year, with lots of positive rumors related to Bitcoin.


After the Tesla and Bitcoin news I agree that many people started to get interested in Bitcoin because they saw how its value increases just because Tesla bought a lot more amount of it. It is also a beginning of people making interested on things how to earn or to make profit out of it. Personally, I have a friend who are interested in making some earnings in Bitcoin. She started to become interested and ask me some basic knowledge about bitcoin. She also buy some of it and planning to go trading and some stocks. I guess this bitcoin is very powerful that it can move a lot of people in just a simple transaction.
1428  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How much btc do you need to secure your future? on: March 05, 2021, 06:03:20 AM
15.37

Woah. Is this legit? 15.37 BTC is a way lot bigger amount. I guess this could atleast secure your future financials. And I think in the next past few years, you might be able to a more bigger value of BTC. For me, I don't have any savings of BTC because I always using it for my financial needs. I able to mine and to earn good profits in BTC yet I have some responsibility and things I need to prioritize. I guess we might not that rich but we can always survive our everyday life. BTC makes a lot more bigger part in me because of it, I able to have some things I didn't able to buy before and thins I need to pay. I will start saving for my future in order to secure it.
1429  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you ever lost a bet in this way? on: March 05, 2021, 01:12:56 AM
I used to gamble in a different way till we got introduced with a feature called "Cashout" which wasn't there for few years on crypto gambling sites. Now, whenever you make bets, not some average or tipped ones but high confidence bets, you see that you've already won and the odds that you placed your bet on (which could be higher than, let's say 1.50x) and it has dropped to 1.01x, will you use your "Cashout" feature and leave / lose a few % of profit just because you fear that the game can still change? Or you'll just go with the flow and let the game run, and you'll wait till the end to get complete profit?

Now, my main question,
What if you didn't cashout your potential winnings and then suddenly, the game changes and let's say that you placed a bet on a Soccer match between Team A and B and you believe that Team A will be the winner (based on less odds and past performances), the score is 1-0 and time is 89 minutes. Now, if Team B manages to score one goal at the last minute and set the score to 1-1, won't you regret that you were so close that you must've cashed out your bet, but lost big due to that last minute goal? This happened to me a few times and I bet it may also have happened with many of you. So, have you ever lost a bet in this way?

I personally experienced this one, regretting since you almost won the match with some decent money but instead of cashing it out you continue and thinks that maximizing your win is far better than the early possible earnings which is much lower than your expected earnings.

Greed really affects it out, unless you are experienced gamblers who knows that when opportunity knocks grabbing it is the first thing to do.

And like what how you explained from your first statement, cashout feature is not there before, good to see that it was introduced and many disipcline gamblers can do enjoy this function, allowing them to take early earnings and use it again with other avaliable games to extent their chances to have more possible profits.

I always experience this kind of situation whenever I have the attitude of not being contented of my profit. Just like you, i always aim for the highest possible amount of profit. Whenever I take the profit I always yhink of putting it back and playing again because I believe that my luck is good that time. Many times, because of my greediness attitude is that I didn't able to get my earnings thus I end up losing all of my funds and capital. I guess right now, I didn't know what could possibly change me but I can say that I learned from my mistake and I able to overcome that kind of attitude and avoid the negative mistakes from my pasts 
1430  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Did anyone try gambling trips? on: March 04, 2021, 06:49:59 PM
if this is a crypto casino the 5k works like a minimum deposit but the bonus that you will be getting is free flights and not free spins but what makes them interesting compare to crypto casinos is that they works in instalment basis .
not many crypto casinos offers it and so far i already read 1 casino that gives you extra reward when you succesfuly completed a few or more deposits .
i havent tried gambling trips because im not into physical gambling but what makes me dont wana try them is that i am not rich

Is gambling casino trips are a thing today? I just heard of it and read all about it for the first time. I think this kind of offers and promos are not that quality or good. It just their way of advertising or to get the market into their casino. Crypto Casino are everywhere and a lot more are continuously rising everywhere. This kind of promos are definitely eye-catching for many people but not me. Yet eventhough that is the idea of Gambling Trips, I still want to try it though and experienced so that I might br able to convince somehow to change my perspective in it and how I look onto it.
1431  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How do I convince people that Bitcoin isn't a financial pyramid? on: March 04, 2021, 03:13:24 PM
ahhh sad story, me too, i don't even know how to tell my family what bitcoin is about, even though bitcoin has been explained on national tv somehow the scheme the pyramid cannot be removed , probably because national tv just reported about price go up like now, and like big correction happen on 2018 , but never explained about the technology in the detail, they even didn't tell reason why bitcoin was created.
Many people misunderstood Bitcoin, about cryptocurrency, because they have been blocked by negativity. The influence of TV news, social media, and those people are talking about negative before you has already been planted in their minds. As long as they have that kind of situation, that is a big challenge for us to make them understood and empty their mindset.

Maybe telling them every day, showing them proof that you are actually making money from this, guarantees that they will show an interest one day.

I agree. I think most of the people now aren't inti butcoin because they believe that it will always a bad thing yet they just dont know how it works and what are the good things about it. I think if you explain well the idea of it, people might understand everything about it and might be able to have interest. And I also agree to the idea that showing some proof might give them some interest in order to also make them also into it and make some profits as well as invest in order to have savings for their everyday and emergency needs.
1432  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin can / cannot replace the banks ? on: March 04, 2021, 03:52:00 AM
It is very clear that Bitcoin will never replace banks at any time, because Bitcoin still has many shortcomings to replace banks. After all,
banks have long been a part of human life, so it is very difficult to replace something that has been going on for a very long time.
And I also believe the government will not allow Bitcoin to replace banks, therefore Bitcoin is more suitable as a payment alternative.
Because if Bitcoin and fiat go hand in hand will make the financial system perfect.


I agree. Bitcoin will never replaced the banks because it has many shortcomings and downside. One of it is being a decentralized volatile cryptocurrency. But ofcourse, this idea is also a good thing because your savings might go up and earn depends on how long you will hold. And I think bitcoin is one of the mode of payment today because of the recent pandemic that we still experiencing. Mode of Payment shift to contactless or digital payments. Bank are good and useful though many people preferred to use now the online because of the safety risks. Crypto might grow as the year passed by and for me banks will remain what it is and stay and will not be replaced.
1433  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: BTC price VS gambling on: March 04, 2021, 01:32:29 AM
Fees are not really a major problem for huge bettors, they keep their privacy on anonymity, that matters a lot and they can take the expense.

For big bettors, transaction fees are not a problem and I totally agree.  Only we little bettors have thought of all the ways to minimize costs.  They think more about sites that keep their data confidential is the best.  Personal data for big bettors is the most important thing to protect.  For us it is not a problem as long as the transaction fee is small.  Yet what is most valuable is the anonymity of site users.

I agree to this idea. Fees are only a very small part of deduction for those big players in gambling and some transactions. BTC price can affect the gambling experience because some fees in some gambling sites are definitely fixed. It is good if BTC sometimes go down in order to have small fees rather than the bigger one but i f the BTC rally up and continuously to go bullish, I think the fees are also getting higher. Just like what happen to the ETH and alts last rally before the correction week. We all know that BTC and Gambling are definitely connected in some ways but not in all ways.
1434  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gamblers - How do you use your signature campaign earnings? on: March 03, 2021, 07:20:02 PM
It mostly depends on how much I got, but I generally ensure that I can save some of it and/or gamble some of it. If it's not that big, then I'd prioritize hodling it since it guarantees me more profits rather than gambling it all. I can tell that most of my fellow Signature Campaign members are also into this type of earning.
- If you are a gambling addict, the money you get from the campaign will always burn for the casino, the concept of saving or holding is non-existent for addicts and gamblers because the mentality of losing and wanting to recover but again, the severity of the problem increases as they continue to lose. But I believe most of the people who get income from signature campaign will always save and invest, gamblers will not show up when they are lazy, if they are skilled enough to make money, they won't participate in gambling

If you want to play gambling while earning, you must be responsible and learn how to control yourself because in gambling money or earning is very fast and at the same time if you do not have any respect and discipline in yourself, you might also lose all of the assets you have. In my signature campaign earnings I manage to make it divided into several things like, for savings so that I able to withdraw anytime if there are emergencies that are unpredicatable, in businesses so that I may able to make profit out of it even if it is small and last is for paying bills, things and getting what I want. I do not put some in gambling but all of my change are into that portion. I able to have fun and at the same time pay my bills and save money.
1435  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Major Risks in Crypto Business on: March 03, 2021, 03:02:00 PM

There are many risks, but don't let it get into you too much.
Volatility is the one that many would think.
Vulnerability is the second because imagine that your money is in digital and a piece of hack could still all your money from it.
Just don't use online wallets so that you'll at least lessen the risk and keep your pc clean for obvious reasons. If an account is hackable, so does a wallet.

I am looking forward for you case study. I conducted mine but it wasn't the successful back in 2017.

I agree to this idea. Cryptocurrency itself is a very high risk way of business commonly because of its aspect that it is too much volatile kind type of online or digital money. The earnings or profit making is a very good in terms of making it possible yet the loss or the rapidly bankrupt idea is also one of the possible outcome. I suggest that if you want to go on in cryptocurrency business or simply in some trading  or gambling, you must know a lot things about it and what are you're coming in. For me, personally it is hard to get back or to recover from loss in crypto, but if you have enough knowledge, you will earn good I guess.
1436  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Biggest news for BITCOIN in 2021 🔥🚀 on: March 03, 2021, 10:34:30 AM
Not even close for the title of "Biggest news for BITCOIN in 2021". In the first place, it's only a filing. They very well could decline this one, just like the past VanEck Bitcoin ETF filings. And even if it does get approved, it's not like we don't have things like GrayScale's Bitcoin Trust(GBTC) yet. It's a good sort of success for Bitcoin don't get me wrong, but probably not as major of an event as most people think.
Maybe we won't appreciate it right now but someday it will be instrumental to the growth. I wouldn't consider this the biggest news for bitcoin in what is happening so far in 2021, I would rank maybe the new ATH first and then the 1.5 billion USD purchase of Tesla as second. This is actually good because people who are investing in ETF's can choose this although if they are managed I think that it wouldn't make any difference.

It isn't that big for anyone but I guess some people might consider it. I agree that this big news for bitcoin in 2021 is a instrument of growth for the next years. I guess this is just a stepping stone to a much bigger achievements that would definitely achieve someday. Bitcoin just only fueling the other goals that will achieve in the future. Bitcoin gaining many ATH this year is just an example of having a good background eventhough these past few weeks, bitcoin and as well as the other coins experience correction, I can say that it is just a good jump start to a even motr higher achievements.
1437  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Lowering the electricity bill by mining cryptocurrency on: March 03, 2021, 07:45:38 AM
It could work if I want to get a mining rig but I am living in a tropical country where there is only two seasons: Sunny Season and Rainy Season. Sunny Season is when the everyone is out in the beach and the electricity spike is high and fires are prevalent so I wouldn't take chances. Rainy Seasons will be the time when floods will be devastating houses or if not floods, the rig might be destroyed because roof leaks will be a problem too and strong winds can pick up roofs.

This was a good analysis of mining crypto yet I don't think that this would affect a more thing about our electricity. Mining bitcoind are required a lot of time and effort. We are living in a new century so most of the things are online or by using internets and electricity. I think mining bitcoin can't affect the electricity bill yet in the other hand, you can use cryptocurrency in order to pay for your electricity bills and as well as other bills in your households. Bitcoin is a big thing today, many people are mined it and starting also, I guess it is not too late to mine but you must put a lot of effort and time in order to earn good.
1438  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: People die from heart attack when they hit the jackpot. on: March 02, 2021, 03:51:03 PM
I have a feeling that people with weak hearts just like they shouldn't watch horror movies, they should also not participate in big lotteries, because when they are participating, they know they have super low chances of winning, but still they have a chance even if it's very low and hence they should refrain from buying in lotteries, what good can money do if the person just dies?!
Well you are right, it is not advisable that people with weak hearts or those people who have a heart condition history but they don't know they are having that maybe they should avoid this, adrenaline will be all over their body once they won a lottery they could hardly stand with that they are having a high risk maybe a family member can help them or do that thing to help them but this family member should be a healthy one and no signs and symptoms of heart problems.
But we know many people, whether they are healthy or not, still buy the lottery because the price is cheap and they can buy it anytime. Maybe they need to take a look at themselves to prepare if they somehow win the jackpot. They can ask the other family member to help them when they buy the lottery or to see the result, so if something happens to them, the family member can help them right away.

Actually that is one of the reasons why most of people but some lottery ticket. It is because of the cheap price but so expensive jackpot reward. In this simple lottery with just a simple and cheap price, you can be a instant millionaire for just identifying a very hard combinations of number. I have a friend that won in the lottery though the price isn't that high still she was shocked and she didn't able to believe of what just happened to her. And in that scenario I think the possibility of having a heart attack in just winning lottery is possible because people get too excite whenever impossible things happen.
1439  Economy / Speculation / Re: ARE WE STILL BULLISH OR BEARISH ? on: March 02, 2021, 12:46:55 PM
we have seen some little dips in the past few days and its a big concern which many have said we should brace up for dips. currently the price is bouncing off the 44k region which can mean we might go up a little. looking at the chart i see 42-42k region as a strong support but if we close below this region then we might be in for a long to the 30k region. such is how market behaves so anyone who is happy about moon should also be expecting the dip. please give your views about the current market situations in terms of being bullish or bearish.
the market is greening now  https://coinmarketcap.com/ so what you think ? are we still in bullrun or is this what you called Bear.



Last year we have a lowest fall in march with the drop of more than 50% in just a day , Now we are in march once again but look at the price?

from 4,000 in march 2020 now almost 50,000$ in march 2021 , in one year duration price climbs up more than 12 folds , i think this is respectable as Bullrunning still right?

Wow. This idea is definitely true and interesting because I was there last march when the correction of price drop at 50%. I believe that many people will definitely get scared of the idea that bitcoin right now is dropping. But many traders always says that this correction is very healthy for the market to balance the scenario of each coin moreiver the bitcoin. Because of last month continuously Bitcoin getting many ATH, this correction is one way in order to prepare for the next all time high to be recorded  so I think this is a bullish action for bitcoin as well as the other alts.
