1441  Economy / Economics / Re: Does a side job/business improve your finanical stability ? on: May 03, 2023, 08:56:46 AM
Every person needs a source of side income for financial stability. Otherwise people always have to go through financial depression. Moreover, with the money earned during working life, many people only end up paying for their daily expenses. As a result, there is a limitation in the quality of life of those people. If any other site job can be kept ‍with main duty then we can expect something good. Through side job a person will be able to achieve financial goals along with financial stability.

not all of that if someone has earned a lot of money from their main job and spent a lot of time on that one job I don't think they need a side job to stabilize their finances.
all of that is not only about money but also about limited time, everyone certainly has a great desire to be able to earn extra money by working on the side but not everyone has enough time for that.
so I think it doesn't apply to everyone even though it's true.

It should be everyone that their salary isn't enough needs side hustle but still there are still people lets say their salary is enough but they are planning to buy a car which mean to save time and it wont take long to purchase your car then you'll be finding another source of income to save a lot so still it depends on instances but again no matter what you'll be financial stable if you can buy your needs and wants without struggling like borrowing to others.

It's great to see that you have a positive attitude towards Bitcoin and its potential for the future [SO AM I]. It's true that Bitcoin and blockchain technology have come a long way, and there's still a lot of potential for growth and innovation. With each day, more and more people are beginning to see the potential benefits of using Bitcoin, and this trend is likely to continue in the years to come. So, if you believe in the potential of Bitcoin, and you have a possibility to invest, in my opinion, it's certainly worth considering investing in it and holding on for the long term, but don't do this bluntly, please research first.

It is advisable before anyone venture into bitcoin investment or cryptocurrency investment should go for a sensitization ( knowledge and orientation) before taking the final decision to venture into investment otherwise it would be too hard and disappointing haven invested their hard earn money and it went sideways without yielding to what they thought it could be. As a matter of consideration as a new comer you should know what you need in bitcoin investment or cryptocurrency investment, for one to be stressed free he needs to look into long term investment by taking bitcoin as the only currency that would survive for long run maybe somehow taken Altcoin for short time investment with this he may have the full control of his or her investments.

One more thing to take care is that when anyone invest in bitcoin they should not think that they will become rich in a day or overnight. Just like any other investment in property, land, houses, gold, stocks,  the investment in bitcoin is similar and will take time to give good returns. However the return in bitcoin is far far greater than any other asset or commodity. You can check the history for yourself that ever since the bitcoin is there from 2011 , 2012 to till now the ROI of bitcoin is the highest.

It is basically everything you've invested, like also in business, if you put it up it doesn't mean you'll gain profit immediately by tomorrow, you still need to establish it then you'll gain profit which is why every time takes time but the sad truth is that people are very greed and not patient when it comes to investment and profits because they always wants like in gambling which you will win in just short period of time but the truth is not.
1443  Economy / Gambling / Re: Enough to consider a casino scam? on: May 03, 2023, 06:04:19 AM
If the casino rejects your KYC documents even though they are completely legit, it implies that they are indeed scamming you using their TOS as a shield. They provide various excuses to justify themselves.

However, if there is some sort of issue(Including minor ones) with your KYC documents, you are 100% at fault and the casino is right to reject your documents frankly speaking.

This is why you should make sure that there are no issues before submitting them op.

Agree with this.

There's no reason for a legit casino to consecutively reject your KYC verification if you really did submit all the documents needed. If you complied to all of the required documents such as picture of identification card, giving your personal information, bank statements, and the likes that are frequently asked in KYC, then it's on their end that has a problem, not you. If you provided a clear picture or copies of these, they should grant your KYC, unless they aren't legitimate casino to begin with who doesn't have enough funding to let you make a withdrawal.

But if your documents are incomplete and/or also blurry, then it's on you. Double check the things you submitted first to see whether the problem is you or them. If you know to yourself that it's on them, then make a complaint and post in scam & accusations board to gather opinions, to escalate the concern, and to give a warning to those people who want to try their website.

I also Agree with what you say, because there is no reason to reject them,one of the reasons why sometimes they reject them is because they are not so legible and cannot be read well and that is something that forces the Player to look for a new document that is often quite annoying to do it and that causes more work and effort,spending money and even going to a place to make an appointment to request that document, and that is what bothers you,that is why the casinos do not have to be so demanding with such a thing,they must settle for the client to continue there and continue betting, just as they can withdraw the player can also lose.


People concluded immediately without trying to see what's wrong first or if they are wrong, that is why when doing KYC make sure that it is not blurry or the information is correct because that's onto you and not for the casino, others just take a blurry photo and putting some words that the casino are a scam because your KYC does not approve. Always try or troubleshoot it first on your own but if everything you've tried and still not working then that's the casino's fault.
1444  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How can we help to Bitcoin education? on: May 03, 2023, 05:20:33 AM
YouTube is one way to educate newbies about Bitcoin. The problem I have with crypto YouTube channels is mostly in the comments section which is filled with scammers.
Curating online courses is also another great way through which Bitcoin education can be achieved.
I like Twitter threads too because they are straight to the point.

Thats also I noticed to a lot of people commenting and posting links which are very difficult to converse with the audience as well as creating a page or group for discussion is difficult because it would be flooded by spammers with links. Though still, it is good to create one with just the purpose of giving information to others as well as providing good articles to them and introducing them to this forum. Basically it is just an info about bitcoin that they can read and watch.
1445  Economy / Economics / Re: Is risky to invest this period on: May 03, 2023, 04:04:09 AM
From the look of things bitcoin price will not come up soon, I guess is better to hold on till when it will show strong signal before putting in money again to escape losses and people who their investment is long over due are already victims of the Price dropping. We should try to be careful this period that bitcoin has not direction. Imagine a friend investment $2000 but what is currently left in his wallet is $400, and the deep is still bearing down the nuds.

Hold on, but if you must buy now be wise to use spare income.
then you are completely wrong , because if you managed to Buy the day you posted this and waited for a month then for sure you'll earn at least 30-40% of your total investment or even more.
from 15k look how much bitcoin broken this past month of April?
this is the problem if we are only looking in Bad side and not the better one.

This is really the problem on waiting on buying dip because they eventually missed the train because they are trying to find the dip and again they thinking without any basis that the price drops. So now someone regereted it not buying it that time as the price right now are huge and you'll already gain massive profits. If ever you have a chance to buy it then buy it since we dont know if the price will skyrocket and you wont see any dips on it

I've tried to access it with different browsers but no can do it.
I'm able to access Stake.com without any issues. Most probably you are facing this issue for your internet service provider. Changing the browsers won't solve it. Either you have to access Stake through the mirror link or try with a different ISP. Visit Playstake.io to get the official mirror links of Stake.com.
Thanks for verifying, the mirror sites work and I'll just try to do something with my ISP for now.

Try clearing your browser cache. We have the same issue and that worked to me. I also need to use mirror sites as the main website is really not working on my end.
1447  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Future of play to earn games on: May 02, 2023, 04:06:40 PM
What do you think about play to earn blockchain games? Do you think that video game players will one day abandon Sony and Microsoft companies for play to earn games or Microsoft and Sony will one day be forced to allow play to earn games to run on their gaming devices?

play to earn in my opinion does not have a good future because there are so many games that have been released but have not been able to survive for a long time, and P2E crypto does not promise anything of value but wastes time in vain because many P2E coins/tokens are not able to survive on the market so they experience a high price drop and this is the reason the game is abandoned by its users.

I haven't heard any new trending play to earn games right now unlike before that there are tone. So far right now those games that are releasing with P2E are not successful and those gamer are just played it if it is fun like the MIR right now that a lot of gamers before playing it to earn but right now those people who just want to play the game still playing it. I think the future was not bright since it is not sustainable project that is why in the long run it will die.
1448  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading not a get rich quick on: May 02, 2023, 02:26:09 PM
There are some investors who aim to get rich quick and invest without considering the fundamentals of any coin which once exposes them to huge risks. Due to excessive greed, many people make such investments with the aim of getting rich quick. Among them there are some investors who invest by borrowing the entire amount. Losing his own money does not have much effect, but if he loses borrowed money, he may have to go to a place like jail. So an investor should avoid get-rich-quick schemes. If he invests in Bitcoin he will recover his wealth even if he loses it but no other coin can expect this situation especially meme coins that are very risky.

Investing with the goal of wanting to get rich quick is the wrong mindset, in fact you could become a rich person through investing, but it's not as easy as you might think. It takes a long process to mature to be able to achieve large and stable profits. I heard that the average person who has the mindset of wanting to get rich quickly always fails in the investment world by leaving only debt. This mindset makes them careless and in a hurry to get profits without realizing the losses, so they always fall down and have to start over. If investing is based on greed and the mindset of wanting to get rich quick, then what's the difference with gambling.

To get rich, it takes time unless you win the lottery, which means you'll get rich instantly, but again, depending on how fast you get that money, that is also how fast you will lose it. For sure, those people who really want to get rich quickly haven't faced any problems, let's say in investing. Because we are too greedy for profit, we lost all of our money, which we learned lessons from. The same is true in real life: doing overtime and multiple jobs makes your health suffer. Everything takes time, and you should have patience with it.
1449  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Day trading is perfect work for jobless peoples on: May 02, 2023, 12:52:07 PM
what to expect from a full trade? generate profits for daily needs? So if when you don't make a profit, what will the trader do to make ends meet?
Merchants are better off considering it as additional income. that's better. why should make it the main income? especially if it is a novice trader who has coincidentally gotten lucky with a few profitable trades. more of them are novice traders who do that. without knowing more the risks they face.
I am of the opinion that trading at the initial stage should always be perceived as an opportunity to make additional profit. Whether you have a job or not, it won't hurt you to try your best in trading. In addition, if you do not have a job and your financial situation is not the best, then I would not build illusions for myself that trading can become the main source of income in this case, since a series of unsuccessful transactions can leave you without money and this will be a very difficult situation. It is better to have a job and at the same time try how good you are at trading.

Also, most of the traders that I've known who are full-time traders come from full-time work and just got fed up with having 8- 5 work and are not doing it full-time, but there are others that still stay at work while trading. Though coming from someone who is unemployed and goes to trading, it wouldn't be successful for sure unless you came from a rich family and have a lot of money to spend on trading, but for sure he is not reachable and just wants to find a source of income.
1450  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The madness of gambling addicts. on: May 02, 2023, 10:43:32 AM
But also those people who has work like 8 - 5 jobs which after their work they usually goes to casino and gamble meaning if they do it on daily basis without a miss for sure it can lead to addiction. That is why it is better to have an hobby like sports which it will divert your attention to others than doing gambling
For me working from 8AM to 5PM is really make me tired because I've spend most of my time on my jobs, I only feel free during weekend where I have more spare time to gamble, travelling, shopping or do anything I like. I only gamble for short time during work days because I need to have time with my family especially play with my kids during their golden ages. If someone who have been married and can gamble everyday, seems like he has a problem about gambling addiction.

That is also what I noticed about my coworkers in my previous job: either they will go to the arena for cockfighting or they will go to other places to get drunk. I feel that they are not tired of doing it, no matter how busy the work is. Even I can't do it, as I want to rest after the work unless it is not a busy day on which I still have spare energy. Though I wouldn't say that they are addicted, as they can still control themselves, it is just part of their daily routine to do it.
1451  Economy / Economics / Re: Without government job we can survive on: May 02, 2023, 09:33:44 AM
First of all, you are doing absolutely great work. Because a lot of people try to get a government job but a few get it. If a man reads and writes to get a job, then he will get a job it’s good otherwise don’t get a job it’s harmful for him. So, everyone does a business or something different, it will be good for anyone.
Government job is the most reliable and consistent thing now and one should try his best to get one because they are permanent and you have alot of facilities in that.
But along with that side business is very important for your survival too.


Government job usually doesn't take too much time, maybe only 5 days a week so the remaining 2 days or when we get home from work we can use it for other things such as working online, don't rely too much on one source, if possible then more sources are safer because many unexpected things can happen in our life.

What he meant is that it is very stable than others, meaning if you got a permanent position there you'll be in government with a lot of benefits and a huge salary (depending on the position) which is also less work but sometimes busy, though that side hustle is a must also for just having another source of income but stability at work is really best because the government wont collapse unless the country got fall because of the debts. But yes if you got into government you'll future is already secured and even your retirement.
1452  Economy / Economics / Re: Which do you prefer on: May 02, 2023, 08:30:51 AM
There is no point leaving one for one, your job is time based right? They create a time for your trading, you can still work and trade at the same time, trading is what I do too but not every time, and it doesn't take me more than one hour or two, I don't do trading around the clock like some gurus. A win is enough for the day, so I use some USD and create down an order waiting for a fill then I sell when there is profit so it's not like those futures.

Even if its futures trading you can create orders and use close trade features to your advantage, you can also set when to take profits too, I use bybit and binance for trading.

No point leaving your job but it's your call, if you think you don't need the extra money and the amount you making from trading is good for all your responsibility then you can stop working if you want.

It is not always good days in trading there will be a time that your strategy now are not working that supposed to be and that is the time you need your job for extra money. I do agree that you shouldn't leave you job as you can still trade even in your work so just take that opportunity and take that advantage that you can trade on your phone which means you have multiple source of income that can make you successful and buy those things that you want
1453  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The madness of gambling addicts. on: May 02, 2023, 05:53:19 AM
I am always surprised when old people are desperate. At that old age I guess you have nothing left other than family to enjoy yourself. Financial issues are getting resolved anyways if you worked hard you know. Gambling addiction can hit people who have no job, no money, noone to support their life to experience fun etc. I always people who are prone to addictions to spend their free time with hobby. Making music, writing, watching cinema or even dancing can work a lot to solve addiction issues.

But also those people who has work like 8 - 5 jobs which after their work they usually goes to casino and gamble meaning if they do it on daily basis without a miss for sure it can lead to addiction. That is why it is better to have an hobby like sports which it will divert your attention to others than doing gambling

That serve as the purpose of bitcoin just imagine what will be the price if those people who sold their bitcoin will hold it until now , for sure the price wouldn't be the same as now or bitcoin will die at early age because there were no transactions on it. There has purpose on everything and for sure who sold it that time is still thankful as they have big  contributions to bitcoin and its price
1455  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Take good care of yourselves on: May 02, 2023, 03:37:05 AM
If we want to enjoy our life more day then we should pay attention to our health first.  You have to take care of yourself.  If you take care of yourself and enjoy good health, your body's metabolism system will become more active.  As a result, the food you eat will easily convert into energy and heal your body.  If you don't take care of your body and if you get seriously ill in the future, your whole life's wealth will be wasted on your treatment.  So we all should eat healthy food and take care of our body.

as others said what will you do with your wealth if you are bed ridden or has serious problems on health which is true. That is why other prioritize health before those money though sometimes we do money first and sacrifice our health which sometimes it is better but we shouldn't do it frequently. I used to do this before working hard and sacrifices my sleep which turns out i got a fatigue and makes me out of work for couple of days
1456  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you feel bad while paying with BTC? on: May 02, 2023, 01:10:41 AM
bitcoin is not suitable to be used as a means of payment like fiat, bitcoin is more suitable to be used as an asset.
if you make bitcoin as a means of payment when will you get the benefits, if in my country someone wants to accept bitcoin as a means of payment I will not do it.

Why do you say bitcoin is not suitable for use as a means of payment? Can you give a few reasons? Don't forget that bitcoin was designed by Satoshi to be used as a means of payment without a 3rd party, he did not intend to create bitcoin as an asset and for trading as it is today. All that is happening is because we made it an asset, an investment, not the original purpose of bitcoin. There's no denying that bitcoin is seen as more of an investment, but there's nothing wrong with someone using it to replace fiat as a payment method.

Most of the people right now see bitcoin as an investment even those new one that asking help on me about bitcoin which first i do always say to them that it was used for transaction but sometimes they always insist that it was for investment. Well we cant blame them as the price right now is huge and anyone of us wants it but having regretting spending it the for sure your mindset is only getting profit out of it and not known the true purpose of bitcoin
1457  Economy / Economics / Re: Concers About Going in Business with a Friend on: May 01, 2023, 04:36:03 PM
Many years ago, I heard the story of a man whose business partner did dirty. They were business partners for almost 5 years and the suddenly the business partner left with company's money. Even after several years, this man didn't recovered. He ended up sounding it as a warning to his kids never to go into business with anyone. The trust was destroyed and never recovered. This is just one of those sad stories.

On the other hand, there are many success stories of friends who went into business together and succeeded to together. If you have ever gone into business with a friend, what were your biggest concerns and how did work through it.

There is a popular saying that there is no friend in business but an associate, never run a business with emotion or family intention and ignore the necessary things. That man wasn't smart, they had the business plan but he failed to plan on how the business should be run, where are the papers, didnt they sign agreements or he just did a normal business with his friend without papers? I believe before he had business, he was tought about business plan but forget paper work of partnership, sigh!

There is nothing hard in this, if you are planning to do business with a friend or a brother or with your family, don't forget to paper down contracts and agreements, it will save not only you but when something you don't expect like death, it will easily save your next of kin from any other people that plan to cheat in them.
That's true you have soo many ups and downs in a business and you have to be rigid regarding rules in any business and with a friend you can't be strict and you can't command him about things.
So better do business with a business partner not with a friend so in case if things go wrong you relations dint get affected.

It was opposite because you are more comfortable with your friend, like instructing him or commanding him , unlike having a complete stranger that goes into this , but the problem with having a friend is the trust , because for sure you completely trust your friend but turns out that your friend will scam you , that is why it is still better to be your business partner is your friend but limit your trust as it always kills you.
1458  Economy / Gambling / Re: Without money, does it still qualify as gambling? on: May 01, 2023, 03:00:47 PM
Have you heard of Superpicks on DSTV? where you can make predictions and win money without staking your money?

if you have not, check it out. Superpicks.com

My question is can it still be called gambling if it is not played with money?
We have the word "risk" anything you do is also a risk but there's also a reward so gambling is a risk reward. You can gamble without money, you will think a way to get money, that's a gambling because you don't predict whether it's risky or not. You can gamble without money by playing free gambling but that's a low chance to win because like what you said "without money"

You can really gamble without money, as there are a lot of casinos or platforms that offer faucets to play on their casino, but what the OP meant was that without it and without money, how would you gamble? Can you bet? or, let's say, in a physical one, mostly now its play-offs in the NBA, someone will bet on some team, but without any "risk" or money, is it called gambling? There is nothing on the line, so it wouldn't be called gambling unless there were risks involved.
1459  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Don't claim to be an investor if it's still like this on: May 01, 2023, 01:01:06 PM
Investing is not an easy task. It should be understood that without preparation it is quite difficult to get the result. The investment process itself requires knowledge and at least minimal experience in working in the market.

Experience is not a must, but it is just a plus; knowledge is really what is needed, as there are still newbies who have no experience but are successful since they learn and have knowledge on it. Experience will follow, but again, if you have experience and you have somewhat struggled with investment, like you already have guts and feel in your crypt that you are investing, it would be easy to invest in it. But again, in investing, you'll be learning constantly as the crypto space keeps evolving and new technology is coming out, so it is better not to be lazy on learning.
1460  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: humanity's dream to make a money on: May 01, 2023, 11:56:57 AM
It is really a passive income, but not all can do this. The truth is that anyone can earn passively anywhere with just those mining rigs and the internet, because most of us only know that the passive income we could get is from our businesses. If our businesses are going well, it means that we are only managing them, and even if we are asleep, we can still generate money. But again, if we are talking about profit on it, it is not that good, but it still serves the purpose of earning passively. On the other hand, like investing in it, it is also great as we can earn huge amounts just by holding it.
