no. the future is uncertain and the economy is unstable. i think it's better if i keep all my sources of income just in case the other became unprofitable.
Correct, we do not like that our income in unstable that bitcoin is, if you have regular job you need to treasure it since it is giving you stable income and bitcoin will be you additional source of income.
That is my principle in life, let us enjoy what we have now as anything that gives us money is worth thanking for. Bitcoin has been in existence for many years and I can say it is stable in terms of market so this will last for long but you are right there is no stable income here so if you are afraid just do both.

I will suggest to stay away from gambling either as investor or as player. Gambling is where everyone keep traveling in circle and never reaches no where in the end as you are walking in circle and there is no destination. It is hope what keeps the people intact to do so. Investment in real life project which have scope of growing is good and right way of becoming rich or turning your money into huge over the time.
There are risks in every money making schemes, i think investing in gambling site is safer/less risky on the long run. (everyone have their own point of view)

Well you have your point of view but what if i know that this thing would surely happens most of the time when some players keeps on defeating the house, how could you possibly gain your prpfit

well investing in gambling sites is better than playing in one though. there are risks yes even if you are in the house but hey, how many times does it happen that someone consistently defeats the house? so still, though both have their own risks, investing is still a lot safer than gambling
If we have to choose one then definitely to choose to be the house is better and easier than to be the player, but you should only invest your money in a casino that has been established for a significant period of time since you trust them with your coins.

Well that's going to be a win-win situation if you are into gambling and you can't leave your addiction then better to make your addiction as a very profitable way source. So while you are investing to the house edge, you don't have nothing to do but to wait for your profit. But make sure you can control yourself and you won't use your profit into being a player again.
Most of the addicted gamblers does not want to wait, hence they will gamble to try their luck and hoping they can make easy money at the short span of time. For sure you cannot do the same because you will easily lose focus and you might priorities gambling over investing.
1543  Economy / Economics / Re: How many Bitcoin do you have saved? on: October 11, 2016, 02:37:27 AM
I think I saved in my wallet for only 0.1 btc. This from my
trading were I earn buy and sell altcoins. And, also I earn
from gambling site.
Just do not just save that amount as there are many ways to grow that amount, just always put in mind that you have a good future with bitcoins if you will work hard, do not be contented with small earnings only but seek a bigger income like everyone here is hoping to have.
1544  Economy / Economics / Re: Best way for steady income on: October 10, 2016, 01:05:11 PM
You can buy bitcoin, and then wait for it to rise, you can also see the signature campaign, so that it can get bitcoin.

Buying and holding bitcoins is not an steady way of earning bitcoins because you don't know what will happen in coming time, sometimes it grows and sometimes it drops so that cannot make you steady earnings, signature campaigns can do that though as their rates are fixed.

Yeah holding will never give you steady income in fact holding can bring loss if price drops in future and now the days are gone when price used to fluctuate in quick session, price is getting stable now.
Sometimes it was misinterpret with our fellow brothers here, they think that holding can give them steady income but in fact you cannot expect that as the price of bitcoin is not only going in one direction, maybe for the long run it can be good but it is still good to have an active income regularly.
1545  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: the easiest way to make a profit from gambling? on: October 10, 2016, 12:59:31 PM
hello, I would like to try my luck from gambling.

what kind of gambling that you think is easy to make a profit? and what strategies are you using?

I'm not sure whether you are joking or not but your question about "the easiest way" to make a profit from gambling looks like a joke to me, because it's impossible to name even a hard way.

Well of course I can tell you that you can go on a reputable dice site, make a bet 0.01 BTC with 0.01% winning chance and you will win 99 BTC risking only 0.01, but the probability of this is very slim.

that is so true. House edge is our enemy when we gamble - casinos are designed to win over the gamers. We should only take gambling as for fun and entertainment and only play a certain amount that it won't really hurt us when we lost certain bets. And as what many gamblers are saying and advising, if it ain't no longer fun, stop betting already.
The easy answer to that is do not play a game where there is a house edge, you have to be smart in gambling if you are aiming for profit, there are other games of course that you have a good chance to win like sports betting and any skilled based games at your expertise.
1546  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling. Is It Wrong? on: October 10, 2016, 12:54:33 PM
I do gamble for fun
It is wrong when gamblers didn't know how to handle themselves, you play just for fun but how does it long? Do you play when you have still money? Because it is still better if you just have to use money that you can afford to lose when you want to have fun in gambling.
You are right, just play only the money that you can afford to lose so it wont hurt you that much if you are not lucky enough to win. gambling itself is not wrong, the players became addicted because of no limitation when playing.
Yes, the gambling is not wrong, but the choosing gambling for the wrong purpose is wrong. Yes if you play gambling just for fun and entertainment then it's not wrong. Those who play gambling for fun they can afford their loss. But those who play for money I think many of them are not afford their loss but still they will play, so for them this gambling is wrong.
You cannot easily say that because sometimes we do gamble for money although originally we want to have fun only. The reality is when we are winning in gambling we consider it good but when times come that we will lose, we tend our loses to gambling and not to ourselves.
1547  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To Gamble or To Invest? on: October 10, 2016, 12:50:54 PM
best idea, i think, is to hold on that 1 bitcoin and wait for the price to go up.
if you don't want to take any risk then yeaa better to holding forever.
but we are talking about taking risk here and choosing between gamble or invest.
and of course people who love to play a game and making money also taking high risk will choose to gamble , but the safest between them is investing.
But holding bitcoin itself must be a type of investing. Because, he had invested his money/hard work into bitcoin and now holding one of the best investment of our generation. Instead of taking risk holding bitcoin must be highly clever way of getting easy benefits.

Both gambling and investing might not guarantee for your capitals to be intact always. You may get profits as well as  losses. The profit/loss of ratio may vary based on your luck/skill against gambling and investments.
Yes comparing to gambling, investing will have less risk also holding bitcoin itself an investment type, we need not to go for another one if you do not want to multiply our bitcoins. Holding bitcoin will not guarantee for growing number of bitcoins, we will be holding. Holding will fetch high profits in future but investing will get more bitcoins without any long waiting.

This is true that other forms of investing is less risky than gambling. The reason is that, casino are designed to win while in investing, the moment the company you are investing with grows (which they try hard to achieve), your investment will also grow. The company will do everything to make it successful with the leverage they are getting from the money that you have invested to them.
Investing in a casino are less risky I guess because as you said, casinos are design to win all the time so if you have your money there, certainly your can grow your investment as you also have the advantage like the casino.
1548  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What keeps you coming back??? on: October 10, 2016, 12:45:53 PM
I do not gamble to much but it always seems that when I do, I take the loss big time.  For example, I have lost over 3 BTC in the BustaBit game online.  It is fun and I like to play but I always get greedy with it.  I have won about 2.2 BTC back, but I lost more than what I have won.  For some odd reason, I keep coming back over and over.  I do not know why I do it, why do you?
i think it can't be our fun thinking that make it again a betting lover at gambling site to gamble . but it is only our greediness that make use very greedy to gamble some btc without hardwork .
Gambling is not good for the poor people because they tend to shift their interest in gambling. At first they will play it for fun and later when they lose already they will not allow to be defeated by a gambling house, what they do is they chase their loses until they accumulated a bigger loses.
Its not recommended to poor people and yeah they will try to chase back their loses that can result to desperate  in money problem..
Thats why many poor people are not riches because of this attitude they are treating gambling as their hope to be a millionaire or to be rich..

That's true. It's the nature of common men trying to compensate his loss in one or the other way. With such hope alternative winning and failure in events leads to addiction which makes users come back even at very worse scenarios of loss.

I agree that is our innate nature to recover and redeemed ourselves from any failures and misfortunes. But in the game of gambling, you are fighting against uneven battle - the casinos has their big advantage which is the house edge. Hence, it is not worth a fight chasing your loses in gambling.
Exactly, and not all the time being brave is good, we need to choose our battle and we need to be smart and in gambling where there is a big house edge the outcome is always lose because that is how it is design, your enemy has no emotion so you cannot beat it.
1549  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Quit Gambling. on: October 10, 2016, 12:42:46 PM
I think this question was already asked here so many times, and it was really like keep on looping and looping. Well, I'm going to answer your question anyways. I know that quitting gambling is not that easy because you've already lost so many things to it, like your bitcoins and money, the only one reason to quit gambling is that you have to be dedicated on quitting it with all of your heart. Think yourself what would happen if you will not going to stop gambling, do you have a good future on it? I know that you already know the answer for yourself.

yeah the answers are all pretty much the same from the start. even if people around you are all trying to help, it would depend if you really want to quit because if you're that determined, even if it's hard, your determination would push you to do everything to quit. so it really would boil down to how badly you want to quit
Do not wait for the time that you will lose a bigger amount of money before you quit, being smart is really good in gambling and you can tell that because you are the one that are managing yourself, if you cannot control and you keep on losing then you have a problem that will only be solve when you fully quit.
1550  Economy / Economics / Re: How many Bitcoin do you have saved? on: October 10, 2016, 12:40:27 PM
Well the answer to how many bitcoin I have saved is not nearly enough in my opinion! You can never have saved enough bitcoin.
With the next halving I am going to massively buy bitcoin it's not that far away only a few years before it happens again.

Buying them is good but I will focus more on earning them in different ways which can increase the number count of coins in my wallet and whenever I would be having extra money, I will prefer to buy them.

bitcoin should be money first and investment second.

so it is better to spend it first and look for ways that you can actually use it as a currency and that will lead to a bigger adoption because if we start using it then merchants will start accepting it too.

Yes and if more merchants will start accepting it will also create an awareness level among those people who are not aware about bitcoin and they will become curious to know more about bitcoin.

Agree it is a sort of promotion to the public! Because they hear that kind of currency and they didnt recognize it as a money so they start learning or searching it all over the net and start using it! Let hope that lot of shops accepts bitcoin as payment.
We need more time to make it happen, and since we are seeing there are stores although not too many that are accepting bitcoin, that is already a good sign that it will increase in the future, it will start from small group then big merchants will follow.
1551  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: is gambling fix your life? or wreck your life? on: October 10, 2016, 12:35:57 PM
Gambling is never fix my life, it's make my life become worse and wreck my life so bad. I already lose so much money on gambling. I hope all my money that i lose on gambling can return.

That's normal, gambling works like that, it will just get all the money that you fund in your bankroll. I think you should not expect to win back what was gone in gambling, that would just double your burden and probably would just cause another problem.
which needed to make more attention because since you already got lost with your money you will make more moves to regain loses ending it up to make more loses and started to collapsed your finances and wrecked your life.

It is always a generally accepted advice when in terms to gambling that, never ever chase your loses. Take a breath and play again next time because when you chase your loses, there is a big chances that you will get wreck because the house edge is already currently working against you at the moment.
Maybe it is just a matter of self discipline, in gambling we need to learn how to manage our bankroll properly and if we are really a real gambler we have to make a real game plan and we should implement it when gambling and no method shall be use but only what is in the game plan.
1552  Economy / Economics / Re: What Will it Take For BTC to Reach $1000? on: October 10, 2016, 07:13:55 AM
I don't know what is the main reason of bitcoins price increase, maybe that is just happening when a lot of people are buying bitcoins.

Because the law of supply and demand is going to be applied here in bitcoins as well. But I don't think if that is the only reason for increasing its price.

Or maybe the whales are the one controlling the price of bitcoin.

Whales do really have  an  impact on bitcoins price since they are buying on huge volumes of bitcoin which could actually move  the price of bitcoin its either   rising or falling. $1000/btc would really need  huge adoption  in able to reach  this  price and  also lots of investors would intend  to switch and  buy bitcoin.

the main reason for price rises are always demand, and that can bring the price up and "keep it there". obviously there are whales and manipulations going on in every market but manipulated price will always drop, just like altcoin prices that go down after a pump.
Whales and price manipulation are a very big part of the Bitcoin value, and they won't be changing for a long time. I would expect whales and market manipulation to be one of the driving forces behind the value until we start to see large-scale adoption becoming a thing and more and more average people buying it, freeing us from a reliance on speculators.
We are going there already, we have seen a good growth of bitcoin and the price seems normal to me unlike before that it is a pure bubble. Although we are still small community now but with great adoption rate on a yearly basis we will grow substantially and achieve massive adoption that we are hoping to happen.
1553  Economy / Economics / Re: How to save money. on: October 10, 2016, 07:03:41 AM
The most important thing to aim! Clearly define how much you need to raise funds and in what period of time. Then look for additional sources of income

Yup, setting up a goal could really help you save and minimize your spending on unnecessary things.  Usually if you have a goal and you are focus on it, you tend to make excuse to buy other things. Aside from that a good  and simple lifestyle could really make a difference when you are saving.
Your goal should be specific, meaning you need to have a figure as you goal to save and it needs to be save in a certain period of time, treat it like you are managing a business and instill discipline so you will not do things that is not included in the plan.
1554  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: the easiest way to make a profit from gambling? on: October 10, 2016, 07:01:37 AM
There are no easiest way to make profit in gambling i short term of gambling yes you can make profit but not that big enough some of us are can make profit in gambling but sometimes we get lose try to make strategies that can really help ylu to earn
Maybe the easy way is when you are lucky and you will just say it after the game but if you are hoping you can win in the long run you cannot make money with gambling as we all lose in the long run, we will just feel the ease maybe if we are doing it for fun and will forget our loses.
1555  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If you were rich, would you still gamble? on: October 10, 2016, 06:54:23 AM
It is not important if you are rich or poor when you gamble near me more watchable thing is the purpose for what someone is gambling. If I say rich people do more gamble than poor will not be too much. Some people with money use their money to get profit while poor try to become rich. I was still gambling to make more money with already existed money.
Yes you are right, gambling is a disease that is difficult to overcome. no matter you are rich or poor if you had known gambling you will still do it, in every moment.
Gambling was never a disease, we have to understand that it is just a game we can play to have fun, although there is a money involve that we can see as a reward but we should not be trap by it and instead we should focus on the fun that we can get in gambling, rich people has more risk if they cannot manage gambling properly.
1556  Economy / Economics / Re: Invest your bitcoins. on: October 10, 2016, 06:46:42 AM
Cannot believe that crypto-games is down. Any experiences with it?
nah you should go to their official thread because here's not the right place to ask about crypto-games service,and also they're having a support and the owner always online here in daily basis so there's no point to ask here
I think they will not turn out to be a scam. they are sites that have long and proven safe and trusted, so they will wait up again
stay calm if you invested on there
Sometimes there is only a site maintenance or it could be under DDOS attach, you have to wait for the official announcement of the Admin because they will not ruin their reputation in the community as their profit is at stake under that situation.

Yeah and that is a good site with a good reputation which is running since a long time but nowadays its really hard to trust any site as there is no guarantee that it will keep on operating forever.
Gambling sites normally fix any problem the soonest because that they have is only the reputation to maintain the trust of their clients, in the world of gambling people easily lose their trust and even small problem can be a big effect to the profitability of your business if you will not fix the problem the soonest.
1557  Economy / Economics / Re: Does the Price of Bitcoin Matter? on: October 10, 2016, 06:40:02 AM
The price says the value of one thing. Just look at the rare things that have found by some archaeologist. They cant even sell it because of their large amount of value and some will make a high price just to buy it. Same with bitcoin where it grows in price as demands go higher because of its rarity.
But it is different thing with bitcoin because the price is base on the supply and demand. If the demand increases, of course the price will also increase and that is the good thing as we have seen the demand has increased even for this year alone. We should be happy now as we earn profits.

Yeah if demand goes higher then it will directly contribute in taking price to an higher level and its only price that decides our actions whether to sell or buy so I think price really matters in bitcoins.
I will be waiting for that in the future as I have seen the growth of bitcoin is continues and this is a good sign that my investment today will have a good success in the future, what I worry is that when the price will become stable we will no longer be earning but I guess I can accept that in the future and stop trading anymore but already bag a great income.
1558  Other / Off-topic / Re: Will you quit your day job to go full time on bitcoin? on: October 10, 2016, 06:36:26 AM
I won't quit my day job to go full time on bitcoin cause with purely bitcoin it's difficult to make a living when you have alot of bills to pay.
Besides that I love my day job and it earns well so I have no reason to quit.

Exactly if you have good job then there is no need in quitting your job as earning from bitcoin is limited at a moment and it cannot give us the best life that a full time job can give.
If a person have good job and are happy with their job then they do not have to leave their job and have to manage both of the jobs as it is also compulsory that we manage our state affairs and for that we have to give time to our day job.
Those who have a good job have to work on both the fields but those people who are earning higher profit per hour on bitcoin job than on their day job have to rely only on bitcoin as it is the only way to get higher income to become rich.

Yes the main target is to have higher income either from full time job or from bitcoin, and if bitcoin is allowing you to achieve that you should focus only on bitcoins.

I would say that you don't have to quit and leave your day job even that is not going to give you higher income with bitcoins.

Because if you are employed then better to give importance for it because in the end that is going to give you higher salary too when you get promoted.

And working in bitcoin is just for free time and just manage your time properly.
It depends on your educational attainment and you skills and knowledge as an employee, in our country if you are not licensed in any profession you will not receive a bigger salary and I think employees in our country who have a rank and file position only receive a lesser income.
1559  Other / Off-topic / Re: Why would customers use Bitcoins? on: October 10, 2016, 06:32:30 AM
I think use bitcoin
because with bitcoin is very fast grow my money
yeah you are right that bitcoin growing our money too much faster because people invest their money in bitcoin ,bitcoin increasing its price too much faster and bitcoin is very profitable for anyone and bitcoin also growing my money very fast.

The days are gone when you used to make fast money from bitcoins, price is stable since long time and I don't think it will pump hugely in next couple of months but you can make quick money if you are trading altcoins.

the price is already on the way to increase and I hope it will increase more higher in the coming months and earning through rising price is not the only way to earn with bitcoin but there are a lot of other ways available t earn faster money from bitcoins.
Just be positive as before this year end we can see a greater price that would also affect our investment to profit, with that news it will have a great connection for the future that merchants will be adopting to bitcoin and customers will be using bitcoin for online transaction.
1560  Economy / Economics / Re: How many Bitcoin do you have saved? on: October 10, 2016, 05:57:54 AM
I only have a very small amount of BTC, but I will try to make more  BTC . Because Iregard it as an investment , hold it for a long time。 So , I'm now looking for the way to how to obtain it , in addition to buy

There are a small amount of bitcoin in my web wallet. I am trying to increase them both by working online and by buying it. Having about 10 bitcoin at the end of this year is one of my important aims
Wow! I think that is not just small, having 10 BTC by the end of the year is already a big accomplishment, but that is just for me maybe because I know my financial status, maybe you are earning well so that amount is just not too big for you.
