14741  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Buying Drugs with Bitcoin ? on: December 22, 2016, 06:22:30 AM
Buying drugs with bitcoin is really possible and that is the negative side of bitcoin.

I don't think that it can be considered as a negative side of Bitcoin. Physical cash is also used for purchasing drugs. But no one claims that doing so exposes the negative side of fiat.
true what you say, it's not a negativ side of bitcoin is precisely the benefit of bitcoin which is anonymous, regardless of the purpose of that user, bitcoin currency is a very sophisticated and anonymous, it is not the side that negative
Well, bitcoin don't have the brain to spend itself. Whether the bitcoin will go to where is up to the bitcoin owner so it's ain't a negative side of bitcoin indeed. Sometimes people are too subjective that only thinking about the negative side of bitcoin and getting blinded by the fact that it's just like an ordinary currency. Whoever think that buying drugs can be done through bitcoin is one of bitcoin's negative side, they need an additional education

But that's the reality in bitcoin's usage, there are a lot of people living in the dark marketplaces are having daily transactions for buying and selling illegal drugs. And it seems that we are just looking on the side of bitcoins negativity just list deppil said also we are forgetting that the fiat is also being used in that trades, so as long as something has worth then it can be exchange to whatever we wants.
14742  Economy / Economics / Re: Best way for steady income on: December 22, 2016, 06:00:39 AM
The problem is how to get such steady income without working or doing anything.

The only thing that occurs to me is that you sign up in many bitcoin faucets , get the link to refer and distribute it freely everywhere. This will involve a bit of work at first, but if you do well all your referrals will work for you at the end.
If you are healthy you can always seek for a job, regardless of what you finish in your studies, you still have a chance to find a good job. That's what we need and if possible to work with a more stable job that pays us regularly as scheduled, it will ensure us to survive by paying all our payables.

Yes that's the only way that can give you assurance for having a steady income or if you don't want to work but you are able to get out some money from your pocket and savings then you can do some micro business but this is kinda hard to make it stable in the first place. But if you are used to it already that can give you stable income.
14743  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you Still believe in Fiat? on: December 22, 2016, 04:53:09 AM
I'm sure people still believe in fiat, because we still use fiat for buying something in real life using fiat. Without fiat we can't buy shit. That's why people still believe in fiat, even the digital money come like bitcoin and paypal. Fiat will still survive.

That's a sure thing because if we are not going to believe fiat then what do you think is the medium that we need to use in able to survive for our daily lives for buying and selling the things that we need? Unless you are living in a jungle and you don't need fiat for surviving there then your faith in fiat will surely be gone.
14744  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Getting porn sites to accept bitcoin on: December 22, 2016, 04:41:04 AM
Some of them are already doing it so that is goods, more will follow anytime soon for sure, just a matter of time.

Even here in forum i had notice one signature campaign which is relevant for porn sites. Even you could find the sites which accepts you as a premium member with the bitcoin payment. Just google it you can find many.

So you are talking about xotiva.tv? Yes there are a lot of porn sites who have been doing that because they can see that their customers will prefer to use bitcoin because of its anonymity. And also there are individuals here that are promoting pornography as it is their username here in forum, I saw some but I can't remember their names.
14745  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How to explain bitcoin to teenagers or children on: December 22, 2016, 04:01:04 AM
hello sir, my nephew is a teenager and he knows more about bitcoin than me, i think because he is a tech savvy and he is a trader too, he knew about bitcoin with his fellow teenager, and for the children maybe its a different story, the world has become more digital so as the currency sir, so maybe in the future bitcoin will be usual to the new generation and they'll be more knowledgeable than the older generations when it comes  to digital currencies like bitcoin and other digital stuff Smiley
It seems the new generation of us can become smarter than us. Childrens are very usual with technology especialy in virtual activity. So I think to explain bitcoin to teenegers or children is just give them some amount and clue how to use it, then they will find the way.

Yes, kids on this generation are even smarter than us, older people. That's why even we just leave them in front of computer and ask them what they have learned at the end of the day. For sure they will tell you all the things they have gained and the same thing with bitcoin, yes that's the only thing that we need to do giving them basic knowledge and they'll do the rest.
14746  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Worst mistake in gambling on: December 22, 2016, 03:36:11 AM
Yeah the worst mistake in gambling for me is not stay away from the board when I was book a big win. And keep playing until I lost all of my money.
I think this is all peoples problem.

Thats right,  that is the common problem of gamblers and it is a problem that must solved. Well it is a hard problem really, especially when you are in the brink of winning and hauling a lot of money. It is really hard to stop putting your money or bets in this situation though  we must control it.

I'm sicked for having that problem either it is really hard to invade that problem. Even though I used to experience that for so many times still I can't able to manage to help myself with it. That's what I'm doing some solutions now like when I able to win some small amount I used to withdraw it immediately and do nothing with it.

Well we are the same. I cant really stop my urge to win big money and withdraw it to use it in many things. After losing in that same style, it is really sad and so dissapointing because its like i didnt learn anything from it. To stop losing in that style, i tried to stop like you with small winnings, though i am greedy so i set a rule to myself. If im winning and my winnings are almost half of my own money or quarter of it. I will stop. If im losing i must stop if i lose 5 straight in a row. Well it works fine in myself.

That's good for you just continue it and you will be fine the same with my style. And I hope those gamblers who are experiencing the same hardships with us that are making their gambling activity worst. And I hope in the future I am not going to have any problems anymore and I won't give myself a bad decision with my daily gambling career.
14747  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Trading vs Gambling on: December 22, 2016, 03:19:29 AM
Just curious since the last discussion I had was about gambling vs trading. I know trading can seem to be a bit of a gamble as well, but I see it a little bit like poker. It's a combination of math and psychology. Maybe not the same ratio though, just generalizing  Tongue
well trading can seem to be a bit of a gamble, but i think it has a big difference like in trade if you lose you can do Cut Loss (CL) and gamble if you lose what you bet will be gone

Trading is far more predictable than gambling is. First of all, you can know where the prices of different things are heading only from news or following important peoples' speeches. These are affecting and manipulating the prices very very easily. Forex is probably the easiest one to predict, especially EUR/USD.
Yes that is right if a person keep knowledge about his assets then he can easily predict the price and future of his assets and will not lose any money in trading while gambling is a high risk place if a person place a bet then he do not know well that what will be the result of that bet.

Trading is a gambling which is more easier to play because you can't do rage bets on it. Each time before you need to buy alt coins, you need to think a lot of times if that coin has the potential to pump soon or your investment will be worth for it. And also if you are patient enough and always has a good timing you will earn great with it.
First, I would like to tell you that trading is not a gambling but it's a gamble for the future or the price movement since the name of the game is predicting how the price move. It involves risk but it will be riskier if you are not doing the right study before you do the actual trading.

Be positive and always learn from experience, it will help you to succeed and master the art of trading.

this is the true fact and we should know this, like Ziskinberg said, the risk of trading and gambling is different so its not the same. for me, i think i better to do trading for daily than playing gambling, because i can not playing games as good as other people and i think i am difficult to get winning in the games.

I will clarify about what I've said that trading is gambling, I want to point out the risk that we are getting in trading is the same thing what we get as we gamble. And yes I agree also with Ziskinberg that we need to be positive every time we gamble or trade. Whatever you chooses to do, just always do it lightly with positive attitude.
14748  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling problem on: December 22, 2016, 03:06:28 AM
the only problem I faced in gambling is, when I gamble, it is very difficult to stop it. I think I've been hooked on gambling. but, I always bet by using a small amount, so I do not feel the loss. In fact, when my money has run out around 40%, I want to stop playing. but, I always felt that I would win, and it made me stop playing.

It is not only your problem but most of the gamblers having the same issue. For that, the best thing is you should load the amount which you can afford to lose for that session then no need to worry much about stopping. You can just gamble without any issues of losing money and can enjoy those games instead every time checking the balance.

I guess it is not right to blame gambling as your own problem. But we are the ones who are giving us our own problem because the way we use gambling is not appropriate. Instead of making it as a source of entertainment we are abusing it too much and we are always setting our goal the way we gamble, like winning big amount.
people actually come to a casino at first time have a purpose to get entertained.

but as time goes by , they feel so good when get profit easily just through a game within a couple hours even minutes. then this gonna be the start of having a lot of problem in gambling , people start crazy to gamble.

That's true, it is the feeling that is making them addicted in gambling if they are already gambling for a longer time. And that is where the problem is starting when they are not able to control it anymore because of two purpose that is making them crave for them to gamble. Both purpose are becoming their source of problem, entertainment and profit.
There's no problem even if you are a long time gambler as long as you are responsible in gambling, you can always think of your future and you will only spend what you can afford to lose. Some even when new in gambling can easily be addicted because they are not doing what needs to comply with the principle, so they have to pay the price.
yes there will be no problems if you are playing gambling in a limit. but if you will increase the limit the you will certainly face so many problems, therefore to me never try to exceed your limit in gambling.

Even they will set up a limit as long as those gamblers doesn't have discipline when they gamble, problems will still going to pop out again and again. Because gambling results are not always constant they may said that they earn good amount for this day but for the next we don't know if we are going to get good profit and what if you have used already your profit for that day? and that's the fund that you will need to use for your daily needs, that's a real problem the.
14749  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does the location affect when we gamble? on: December 22, 2016, 02:52:36 AM
I still wondered after watching one dice gambling tips on youtube. she suggested to use a vpn American countries. Do you think the state and affect our current location to gamble? , please give your opinion

It doesn't matter whether you will use vpn or not with your gambling activity that will not have a significance with the outcome of your game. And if the person on that video talks about location and vpn surely that it just avoiding something like country's total ban in online gambling. So you don't have to rely with that tip.

For me it doesn't matter from what location are you when gambling because playing like online casinos can be done with internet access in any locations and you can even use your mobile phones. As long as you are safe in the place where you play online gambling location doesn't matter anyway. Most importantly is your gambling skills and ability to win is the one that matters most not the location.

Yep, that's the most important thing when we gamble. Maybe your location will just be affected if you are covered with a certain law which is putting total ban for online gambling but it doesn't have something to do with your luck and winning.

And that's where the problem is popping out when it comes to responsible gambling. Let's admit that many of the gamblers are not doing it that way. Because of their greediness, that is pulling them into falling for thinking that they will be able to sustain everything they need if they are going to be lucky enough and depend with gambling.

14754  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is their any safe methods to gamble? on: December 21, 2016, 03:21:52 AM
by playing cautious,do not put all because it can lose,remain cautious because many gambling sites are not fair
I also play gambling has long,almost every day, if im  win then I'm happy Grin
We do not have to think to gamble for longer because for playing longer we will need to put more in gambling and with that we will go to risk more of our money. The safe way is to gamble only for a smaller time and for smaller amount of money.

Its safer but still not safe, gambling is never safe, does not matter on what way you are putting it, its just no safe at all.

There is safeness in gambling and that is playing with nonsense coins and as well as give away alt coins. That is making you safe when you gamble if you just want to keep on gambling and have fun but if you are probably hoping for the profit of course you are not convinced by gambling that way or else you might choose to gamble without any precautions.
The coins you are referring to as nonsense coins has still value on it. Do you think a gambling site will accept those coins even if they don't have any value in it? Of course not, they accept those coins because they know that there is still value in them and they can have profit with it. Also how can playing cautious be safe in gambling? Even if you are cautious it does not determine the outcome or result of the game. Knowing when to stop might be the easiest way to earn money and avoid losses.

Yes there is a site that is accepting nonsense coins, you didn't know about yobit? it has a lot of free coins just claim it and once that coin is already credited to your account. Then you can just simply use it as bet for dicing with them, but that's the only game they are accepting those nonsense coins. It is just like you will enjoy their play money.

14756  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do any people gamble under the age of 18? on: December 21, 2016, 02:54:08 AM
yes, definitely there in this world gambler whose age is under 18 years old, because gambling is a game that can be done by anyone and by anyone. Maybe the age limit is an unwritten rule, only logic that uses unwritten seal the document. children under 18 years old should not gamble, there are still many games that are more worthy than gambling,  Or I could say it was just a waste of money.

That's a fact that gamblers of the new generation are even younger than teenage. There are some who are doing sports betting and they are the one who plays, there is also the newest trend which is the e-sports. And since they are kids and on the teen age, they love to play like Dota 2, CS Go and they are betting against with their opponents.
They are kids so definitely that is not good for them to learn gambling at a young age, if a matured person got addicted then probably kids will be addicted easy, I just hope it will not give them disease and always think of gambling rather than thinking of their studies for better future.

If this can be prevented the better, kids are not suppose to gamble just to enjoy. They can play online game without bet I guess.

Even they are kids that is just normal for them, for here in my place a lot of kids are doing that. And it tends that it is just normal for them as what they can see for older guys like me. What do you mean by disease? Do you mean addiction? Well probably that's going to be their problem when they grow old when they got engaged with it too much.

The problem when kids got addicted from gambling is because they still dont get a regular income and most of them dont have a careful thought too, hence we are afraid that they will do a bad thing to fulfill their addictions like stealing money from other people.
If they will not steal money from anyone then it is still not good for them because they will not know about their bank roll management and will lose all of their money and will not care that what is for his education and what is for his future and will loot all in gambling.
Many bad effect can be get from gambling if they are just a kids.. like you said they can still money from other people or his or her parents .
Just to use the money to use for gambling.. kids should always in school to educate their self. that is why we have a school teachers can teach them them what they want to learn instead of gambling.
Addiction is hard to remove just like my friend before addicted in gambling lose every day nothing they can get in gambling their parents use psychiatrist just to have an advice to help them for addiction and they do what psychitrist. changing hobby for your kids can help you to them to stay away.. that actually they will realize that gambling are made for fun not for making money..
I think if kids from the beginning are prevented from gambling then they will never gamble in their life the parents have to keep a check on the activities of their kids and have to train them on every field of life so that they do not misdirect.

Even they will be guided by their parents but if they are living in a society that has people who manage to gamble. For sure they will be influence by his, classmates, friends, relatives and strangers to gamble. It is really hard to grow a child every single day. And that's the reality about life that even how good you are still you will fail.
14757  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How can gambling help you with your life? on: December 21, 2016, 02:41:22 AM
Lossing 1 BTC may not be devastating for you but it would be for me and for a lot of other people in here that are humble btc holders and work hard everyday trying to get whatever is left to get before we go for 100k per coin and its impossible to make any more entire BTC units. Thing is, I never gamble any more cause it causes too much mental pain to lose for weeks after.

Who losses 1 BTC and not affected at all? He must be supper rich in order to not be affected. I am also part of the people where we work hard to earn Bitcoin. I just sports bet now instead of dice. The mental pain I can handle because I don't give to much emotion in gambling



LOL! Even just losing 0.005 BTC is already a heartbreak for me and how about 1 bitcoin? Those people who are able to lose that amount are totally rich enough. And I guess that is helping them, helping them to spend their money because they don't know how to spend it, instead of drugs they will just allot it with gambling sites.

Many people said the gambling is just a game and another people said it is Investment. How do you think?  Roll Eyes

Yes gambling is just a game, but earlier when i started bitcoin. Gambling is my source of income, it's not big but that time my income where steady from $5-$20 a day is Good Enough way back time. So gambling is just a game where you have to invest talent, skills and precision. You just need to limit your greediness on betting. But this is just my opinion. I think other people will have different interpretation to gambling.
You are lucky that you are earning from gambling on daily basis but it is actually a place of entertainment where gamblers come to play for entertainment and for the owners it is a business from where they earn some profit. I think that is the perfect definition of gambling in anyone's mind.
That is a good definition but the chances of earnings are not only for the owners of casinos as the players also earning money on these casinos and there are some people who are earning steadily (they claim on some threads here).

I admire those gamblers who manage to win steadily as them gamble I've been trying to follow some of their threads and make them as inspiration with my gambling career but it seems that I'm always failing and I was always thinking that people who are winning in gambling are just lucky enough and gambling is really for them.
14760  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who can tell that when our luck come to us? on: December 21, 2016, 01:16:57 AM
It all depend on our struggle and our plannings for our life and our sincerity with our life after having these things we can get any thing in our life and can reach to any aim of our life while without these we can get nothing. So we do not have to depend on the sayings of other people like fortune tellers and have to spend our life.

Fortune tellers are just suckers, they tend to say predictions that are not even legitimate. They are just using their saliva's for their living to tell people their lies and give praises to the ones that will pay them. Just don't always rely on luck because even how lucky you are but if you are not working for your own living, then luck is nothing.
