This is one of the drawbacks of a mentally unqualified gambler!!!OP How can these people risk their health and money?
>:(You can inform the local authority of the place.
^ For sure the boredom and addiction to gambling probably the reasons why these folks keep on breaking the rules set by the authorities. Some online casinos are still operational but not all of them have access to it that is why they tend to break the rules just to satisfy their gambling urges. Land-based casinos who are still trying to operate even when there is a lockdown should be reported to the authorities for an obvious violation of the quarantine. Another reason is because of lockdown they only think of their profit and not the health of their players regardless that they are implementing precautionary measures like wearing face masks and gloves still they are breaking the rules. Nevertheless, whatever the reason rules are rules it should be followed and no one has the right to break it including the authority who created the rules. I'm pretty sure that this is the reason why some other countries are having a hard time fighting the virus, because there are some people who are ignorant about self-discipline and patience. They don't follow what the government asked them to do and it is really a shame to those citizen who are risking their lives and harm other people just to ease the urge of gambling. It is really hard to please people, especially that it is for the safety of all people. It is not hard to comprehend that people should wait until the quarantine and pandemic is over before they can do physical gambling and there are online gambling that allow people to have an access using their digital money. They should follow what the authority asked them to do and those who violate the rules should be accountable and be punished. |

Investing for future is a perfect idea in crypto world, it is a new system even if its ten years old these days, all other stuff have been around for hundreds of years, so crypto is considerably new compared to other stuff and in 20-30-40 years it will always be something a lot more profitable, definitely amazing.
But at the same time, we are talking about not having the patience to wait for 40 years when the coin we bought is basically non-existing right now, some things you invest in like bitcoin and ethereum could survive for tens of years, whereas some small ones can go so little that you would basically want to get out, look at Nano for these examples, it used to be over 30 dollars, now its under 1 dollars. So do the long term thing, but pick carefully.
Sometimes you need to become futuristic in order to have a point of view and have some ideas on what will you do on the next upcoming years. If you have plans, it will become more easier to you on what directions are you going to pursue with your money. Investment is quite good but trading will make you more flexible in any situation just like when the price in the market is high or low. We need to consider a lot of things especially in choosing between trading or investments. Like many people said here, they are both different from each other and in terms of risks, trading is much risky compared to investments. But it really take courage for you to gain reasonable and huge amount of profits in trading. You only need to have patience and self-discipline in order to attain what you're rooting for about your career. Hard work pays off you just need to grind and manipulate your assets properly as far as you can but limit yourself if it is necessary. It's really much good to invest in a long term source of profit not only in a short term because it can really make you lose your money. |

After the halving the price of BTC has increased now from the past few hours is this a bull effect???
Nah, Its not Bull effect but it is halving effect. And yet, it wasn't considered enough to say that we are on the bullish already. Lately, we saw some pumps but have to warn the community to prepared for a market correction. Things will go in and out as usual. This crypto market is always been a twist, to be it seems like the price might reach $12k in couple of weeks. Guys share your thoughts.
It is more than that, it surprising. You can't tell its direction until you have experienced it. That is why everything went into just speculations coz we really don't know. And we don't need to push ourselves to believe that Bullrun will come quickly after halving because it is not like that. I think that's not the final and the full potential of bitcoin''s pump yet, it's just only a week since the third halving period. We just need to wait for more things to occur and I know that there's something more about the halving period, it is just too early to predict about the effect of halving. Bull effect is literally another thing to bitcoin, we just need to focus on the stability of bitcoin and its sudden pump on what is the highest price that it can do. People should also be mindful and aware about the market so that when there's a market correction, people know what to do and perform just to become more effective in the effect of halving. We all know that bitcoin is always volatile so we need to adjust and expect for more changes in the market and adapt on the events that can occur in bitcoin's halving. |

Well, I am the same as you when I was started knowing poker. The first thing I did is I watched videos on youtube and studying what mechanics of the game and how it works and play. After knowing the rules and how does it play, and I installed a poker app on my mobile phone from Google play store and it is free. You can choose an online game or offline game poker. Perhaps that is good when you are practicing poker because it is free and there is nothing to spend your BTC.
Sometimes I manage to practice playing poker in Texas HoldEm in mobile phone because there is a digital money that you can use there. I play them when I'm bored and I want to play poker because I enjoy playing it as it gives me realistic feeling of playing. My opponents are also player from any part of the world and it is really good to have an opponent that I can play with. It is not that good to play poker when your opponent are only AI or CPU. I play it in my phone and it is very handy, you just need to connect in your internet or Wifi just like playing online gambling casino that includes real money or cryptocurrency. But here in Texas Holdem, you can play it only with virtual money but still only you need to take it seriously and practice. |

I think that at the moment there is no clear structure if the market can stabilize, or in some kind of trend, although we are in a pandemic where panic is the order of the day, and at the same time we have the effect of Bitcoin's Halving. , and although the correlation with speculative markets is low, Bitcoin has a life of its own, which means that altcoins want or do not depend and will always depend on Bitcoin. That's somehow correct that the altcoin only depends on the price of bitcoin in the market because the only basis of their existence is bitcoin. Altcoins are inspired by bitcoins that's why they are made to the market, and in terms of stability in the market, there's no such thing and it is hard to attain stability especially that there are factors that can affect its price. Like this pandemic, plus the halving season, probably there's a huge impact of this events about the stability of bitcoin. Bitcoin can really be independent and grow on its own, it has its own value and worth in the market and every bitcoin holders know that. There is something more about bitcoin that you can't find in using those altcoins and it a good store of value even in a long term investment compared to altcoins that are only dependent. |

Apparently due to Quarantine , people are getting jobless ,but then again pause for a minute.
Some well established institutions are able to provide the financial support and they are shifting the jobs online . One should understand that, this is something that only some well off members of the society are enjoying. Unfortunately the people with small jobs are now deemed insignificant and they are sitting at home and hoping for it to end soon ..
This is making the economic gap between the two sections only wider .
Quarantine was not done properly , it is not the solution. People will soon starve and won't be able to pay of bills . With the loans from colleges and schools , kids will be deprived of a good future.
Soon enough if the Quarantine does not end , Corona virus won't kill us , but the economic situation will . Therefore I urge all of you to stay home and practice good hygiene. So that we are able to control the breaking economic crisis which is bigger than the Corona virus.
What are your thoughts ? Please feel free to share.
What do you mean the Corona virus won't kill us? millions have died already. But government has to weight the risk here, will they allowed to ease quarantine in the next coming days but expect more cases of covid-19 virus increase? And if you are the one who have been affected financially, will you take the risk as well? It's really hard situation for everyone, specially bringing food in the table for our families, but if will be very difficult to sustain your family if you yourself go out and get infected. Government are responsible for the safety and sustainability of its citizen as this pandemic is continuously on going. It is really hard to see our fellow citizen to experience and suffer especially those people who are poor enough to survive this quarantine. Not all of us can buy goods, can have stable work, and home for the safety and prevention of this pandemic. Some of us are just living in the streets, the beggar, the unfortunate, hopefully the government do something about this so that the number of people who are suffering could be lessen. Famine and starving will kill us so the government should do what they should do to serve its people. The community needs their help and they are accountable about the rights of the people, there are a lot of budget that are allocated for this pandemic although there is no precise plan about this. We're all not prepared for this pandemic so we should deal with this until everything goes back to normal. |

Legendary author, J.K. Rowling, has recently shown her interest in Bitcoin over Twitter.'
Yeah its indication that new people are coming, halving doing its job of getting media attention aside from its real purpose. Its actually a good thing for Bitcoin  , you ask if to short it now. Noone knows that, only nostradamus, because it could be another run to $20 k or it can go down, time will tell. We all know that J.K. Rowling is very popular author because of his works like the famous Harry Potter. There are a lot of people who are a fan of his books and probably his recognition about bitcoin will be a great help for us to promote bitcoin more. Hopefully she continue her interest and curiosity about bitcoin so that it will become more realistic about our desire which is the mass adoption. She will be the way to increase and develop our mass adoption in bitcoin because many people will support her in her endeavor as they see their idol using bitcoin this will be the opportunity for us. This halving will really have a big factor in the bitcoin's price and mass adoption everything in cryptocurrency is connected so we have no idea what will happen next. |

I also cannot find any related research paper with a proper methodology and research instrument used as most of them are just blogs and conclusions/ summary of an existing research that has not been disclosed in public. I hope some of the indicated articles will help you.  It's a shame that most of these researches don't have a proper research paper for anyone interested to study. It's quite interesting how studies say gambling is on an increase while groups are saying it's the opposite and the graph above shows the wagered amounts are also decreasing (see the wagered sums of this year's first months vs 2019's). Could also very well depend on what country the research is done into. The mindset of a nation could greatly influence results. People have different thoughts, mindsets and emotions towards gambling so if there will be research about it, expect that there will be a negative conclusion to it. It is true that there are only researchers who see a worth information about gambling and that is why there are only few studies especially if the society in a specific country doesn't treat gambling as a important subject or topic. For the OP, I think the best way for you to gain more information that you need to finish your research paper is through surveying. This studies will make us visualize the how the pandemic affect our gambling career, many of us are using online gambling right now due to the prohibited casinos to open. Some of us are really rooting for the physical casinos but it is forbidden by the authority or law. These graphs will really make us see the effect of this covid-19 to the volume of people accessing the online casinos. Before we make some conclusion, we must apply statistical analysis like correlation to know if there is a progress when this pandemic occurs. Probably, there is some improvement in the use of online gambling casino because it is much safer than the physical casinos so that there are a lot of people who guaranteed to use online platforms. |

Sell your coins for profits, that is the rule of trading so you need to buy the coins when it is lower itself to make better profits.Since the prices are currently high you can buy and wait for the price to increase but still it is not clear that prices will move in upwards or in downwards.
one way or another, in the first place, everything will depend on what strategy the trader chooses. with long-term trading, in any case, you will have to wait for the price increase for the cryptocurrency that you have chosen to trade. And if you choose day trading, then using the simplest scalping strategy, there is a certain opportunity for generating income, even if the price of your asset has decreased. You need first to comprehend that trading is a process where you don't need to rush things just to get huge amount of money, you need patience and self-discipline here. Considering a lot of factors in the market is necessary for you to have basis about about strategy that you're going to prepare and perform. You also need to study the factors that can affect the price of what coin you're using, like this pandemic, i'm pretty sure that this quarantine can affect the price of a certain coin. Always become patient about the right where you can sell and buy coins, good decision making is the key for you to prevent regrets in your trading career. Always be positive and never hesitate to trade if it is necessary and you have good chance of having profits. |

I don't think that the changes in the economy will apply to every country. These changes will probably and mostly apply to developed countries. Not every country and people are capable of doing digital transactions. Yes, it's now an option but I think most people would still rely on the traditional transaction using paper money.
What changes could be applied because of this pandemic is the safety barriers and precautions when two people are making a transaction to lessen physical contact. What I can see during this pandemic is that people are relying on e-commerce but people still use paper money to pay for what they bought.
After this COVID, I think people will be more conscious and careful about their environment and will be more hygienic. The economy won't collapse because that's what they are preventing, neither central banks. People don't easily adapt to sudden changes like every transaction would be digital. And when we say digital transactions, it's not only decentralized crypto. They more likely to accept digital payment using e-wallets or cards.
People will still become anxious and worry about communicating with other people because there is still a risk of getting the virus from our surroundings. Probably people will not be the same again when everything go back to normal because somehow there's a long term effect in this pandemic so everything will not go back totally to normal. But this will be the way for the promotion of using digital currency in many transactions to lessen the physical transaction and using of tangible money. There are some news and articles that are related to the risk of transmission of corona virus due to the use of physical money that can be passed from one person to another. Hoping that our economy could recover from this downfall due to the effect of covid-19. We all know that most of the countries are having a hard time manipulating and controlling their economies because of the budget that are allocated to fight this pandemic. |

I don't see anything that explains why do you personally think bitcoin is the future.
Quoting people's guesstimates on what will be the price of bitcoin short-term does not secure bitcoin being the future of money, nor even explain why bitcoin is t he future. It can always go higher than Mt. Everest but if people and the world's attention is not directed to it, and develop it into something useful for their own gain, it will never be the future. Perhaps short-term people can see its worth as replacement for cash due to the pandemic, but again, how many merchants and services are really accepting bitcoin these days?
I'm not a non-believer but I just want logical answers on rhetorical questions that seem to never end in this forum.
The thing here is that this type of predictions gives hopes to a type of person like OP. I mean, who gives a shit about mcafee anyway? he already back down from his words and we won't be seeing his dick getting eaten live at television anymore (It's a joke, chill). Looking at the news article above, even $50,000 is still a pipe dream at the end of 2020 because of the dilemma we are having right now like when is difficulty going to adjust for the miners to start profiting again? how will this crisis we are having right now will affect the future market? The future is still unpredictable. Bitcoin's volatility is one of the reason why it is not the future, it doesn't surpasses the standard of being a currency because there are some factors to be considered. It can reach the all time high again and it can also lower its price than you can imagine, its shifting of price from high to low is really fast and it will not really become an effective as a long term investment. Bitcoin is only for a short term investment and manipulation, especially if it is necessary for you to have transaction in a short period of time. It is possible if people promote it and have a massive mass adoption that each and every people can benefit about it. But it is not that easy to achieve especially that there are still government that doesn't support the use of cryptocurrency in their community. Overall, bitcoin is potentially the future of all coins not specifically the future of all. |

I also prefer skill based because gambling without strategy and only depending on luck is really boring and it takes away the fun.
Even dice games in casino's there are patterns you could see or some techniques for you to be able to win more but quite risky as well.
Skill-based gambling is really easier to play with as you have some control with your money and techniques to perform in gambling. Some people are having a hard time playing luck-based game as it really depends on their fate and luck. They have nothing to do but to bet and wait for the outcome whether it is a win or lose. That's why I prefer skill-based game, so that when there's someone to blame, it is myself. The strategies and results are in my own hand, it is really much enjoyable if you are really playing instead of just waiting there for the outcome. Sometimes, there are still circumstances where skill-based gambling is not that lucky enough for you to win. |

It's not difficult if you study first, try to understand the market situation that occurs, trading is not just buying and selling. Investment is not just putting a large fund in a project.
Everything can be learned and acquired once you understand the purpose and benefits of trading on your assets. It is true that there is something more about trading because it can improve your good decision and critical thinking skills that you can use to manage and fight the volatility of a certain coins in the market. Investment is much safer than trading, you need to take it step by step when you choose investment over trading. Probably, there are times that trading will give you much higher profits than investment but keep in mind that investment is for a long term source of profit. Needing the ability to analyze and find the right time to trade and invest, I suggest you always learn and the failure you get is a process that must be passed. But if you are tired, there is time to take a break to stay mentally healthy.
Patience and good timing is always the key in order to win in any circumstances no matter if that's a trade or investment. Proper timing will give you good profits and minimal losses once you know when to execute the strategies that you prepared during transactions. |

Today we face a huge economic crisis into this world because of this pandemic outbreak caused by the virus rapidly increasing of the number of infected which is a harmful thing that causes death and disease to other people some of the countries made a lockdown because they want to avoid getting too much number of people gathering in a single place because by that there is an instance they can infect rapidly. Still, some of us make a lot of hoarding some items because we don't know until the virus comes and this is too much because what about other people. Today is not the good day to save some money and want on the virus to become finish because there are a lot of things we need to consider like foods, clothes, and medicine to avoid getting sick immediately and we are getting prone.
Even we cannot do anything for the country I still considering praying is one of the mental states that we can contribute to the people we called as the front liners that see saving our world. Even we have different beliefs I respect that just to become safe all of us.
This pandemic really make us suffer for 2 months and counting, we really have nothing to do but to wait and be patient for the vaccine to be discovered and distributed around the world. In some countries, the number of cases are still increasing and many people are dying because of this virus. The government's help is not enough for people to sustain their lives and buy their necessities because of lack of funds, some people doesn't have work due to the community quarantine or lockdown. The only way we can fight this virus is to stay healthy, eat healthy foods, don't go outside, practice proper hygiene and be productive inside your house everyday. I know that there are a lot of people who are experiencing mental struggle right now because we can't have communications and bond with our friends. We just need to be patient and wait for this pandemic to end. Hopefully, we can still communicate with our friends and families using the social media so that we don't feel any loneliness and sadness because of this boring and homesick experience. Most of us are really excited to go outside and travel but this pandemic is really the hindrance to it. |

The good effect of Covid 19 is the traffic of some gambling websites (online). Most of the casinos are close, so people will start to learn how to gamble online.
But then again, there is the negative part here, there are some people who lost their job or temporary no job because of this pandemic covid 19, so, there are less or no money to gamble.
Crypto gambling and online gambling is not the same, crypto gambling is just a subtype of the latter, and it's likely only a very small piece of it. When people who used to go to brick and mortar casinos google "online casino", they likely won't get any crypto-related results, and unless they dig deeper or are already aware of crypto side, they'll probably never now about it. So, I really doubt that the coronavirus had positive effect on this industry. Not really because there are still online gambling casinos that allow its customer to use cryptocurrency in their platform. The gambling casinos that are really affected by this pandemic are those physical casinos that make people gather in a certain place. We all know that this quarantine makes people unable to go outside and go to the casino that they want to play with. Maybe, the crypto casinos are somehow affected because the volume of people who are gambling online will increase. This covid-19 affects all of the sectors in the government so maybe the economy is also affected and so the cryptocurrency. There are a lot of possibilities that may occur the the virus can also affect the gambling casino digitally. |

Binance for both futures and altcoin trading, and for Fiat selling, localbitcoins, wazirx and paxful are 3 best options available for you to choose from. As of now, even Binance allows us to conduct P2P trades there which can be somehow profitable for those traders who can hodl for some extra time and in no urgent need of cash.
Yeah I stan on binance when it comes to futures trading, I find it very peculiar since this is the first time that I saw a 125x leverage on a futures trading, it's like x 12.5 to your profit and what I do love about their trading platform is that they are concern on every customer, I am receiving a warning through email and phone number whenever my margin exceeds to 80%. I often use binance because of the trading volume and liquidity, most of the time I switch with just two exchanges, binance and coinbase. Binance is really a good trading platform, the volume of people who uses this are quite higher than other platforms. Its security is really strict and customers are really safe to access here as as it really make people become comfortable with the p2p transactions. It is the safest platform that I know for those who are interested in trading cryptocurrency, also its existence in the market makes it more popular because of its service. In coinbase, you can perform margin trading, this platform will allow you borrow money from the broker for you to be able to perform more trades. This will help you to have more profits and boost your trading transactions so that you will become an effective trader as you are using their platform. In contrast with binance, it is lesser in liquidity so it is more effective to use it as you are anxious about your assets. |

the crisis might cause defaults in smaller/weaker countries, but i remain unconvinced that it will actually end the debt bubble in the USA and china. there are certainly no signs of that yet. on that basis alone (weak motive) i would really have to question kooky conspiracy theories like these. in fact, despite all the monetary stimulus, the crisis seems to be reinforcing the USD's role as "safe haven" reserve currency: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/videos/2020-05-12/u-s-dollar-to-be-broadly-stronger-td-securities-s-kotecha-videoWasn't Trump facing impeachment before the outbreak? I was only partially paying attention to that, but then that story just disappeared from media altogether.
he was impeached by the house but acquitted by the senate in february. one might argue that the media focus on the senate trial (and quite probably trump's own focus on it) took away from any sense of urgency around the coronavirus at the time. when the outbreak exploded, it quickly became yesterday's news. I don' think that crisis will cause defaults because somehow there are things that are affected by this virus that can't be repaired or recovered. We can go back to start again after this pandemic but I guarantee you that it will never be the same for us. There are lives that have been caught by this coronavirus and we can't bring them back and in terms of the economy, I'm pretty sure that the government will have a hard time recovering from this disaster brought by the virus. The stock market of USA crashes that's why I think their economy will be also damaged, so the USD will become somehow affected. It depends on the government of US if they can recover and retrieve all of their losses due to this pandemic because honestly, they don't have a good leader, Trump is really not a good president. |

If you are posting your Bitcoin address on social media, which by the way are always monitored by government backed agaencies then you are a fool
The first rule is avoid social media if you are concerned about Privacy. The second rule is to never disclose your identity in public or on social media that you deal in cryptocurrency, as there are scammers and criminals waiting for you always.
If you are concerned about Privacy in crypto universe then use privacy specific cryptocurrency rather than bitcoin
There are people who aren't aware about his bitcoin addresses that's why they are the one who are the most vulnerable when it comes to scammers and hackers. Privacy is one of the most essential and crucial thing in cryptocurrency, there are a lot of people who are fooling people and who wants to have access on your accounts that's why you need strong security and privacy in your wallets. Cryptocurrency is not that easy to manipulate especially when there are people who are good at getting bitcoin addresses of other people. Don't be easily fooled by other people and become aware of your surroundings. You should not post any information about yourself and your accounts because it is really unnecessary to do that. Keep your information and accounts to yourself only, criminals are very good in victimizing people especially if you are ignorant about cryptocurrency. You should not relate your bitcoin addresses into your social media, because social media is only for you to have communication with your friend and be updated on the happenings around you. |

Now a days making profit from altcoins really difficult.but with proper research can help to make profit.few days ago made profit from ltc and eth.Though profit amount was not high.Now I exchange my all altcoins to USDT.Now trying to watch Market carefully.in this situation entry in altcoins is risky(in my view).
When it comes to trading, strategies are always important and a no.1 factor for you to earn in trading. Most of the altcoins are not that popular and they not prioritize it once it is not in the market list. Always observe how market works and it will guide you on what to do next. Making decisions without proper execution is hard to exchange so watch out. So not only bitcoin, altcoin is also uncertain and sometimes working in a downward movement. Obviously that's right, rooting for a large profit requires skill and patience in order to achieve it. You don't need to get some help to other people, maybe an advice is enough just for you to understand and to cope up with the market. Sometimes, you really need to adapt in your trading experiences in order for you to grow and learn the do's and dont's in trading. It is really difficult nowadays to have a large profit, it really needs full effort, patience and adjustments. Good decision making is necessary for a better result of trading and profits because it will give you some positive effects and outcome in a certain transaction in the market. When you want invest in a certain coins, choose also an altcoin because although it is not that popular, there's still a profit there. But still, prioritize bitcoin in all of your transactions as it is the best cryptocurrency that you can hold and manipulate in the market. |

This is Bob Arum speaking, he makes everything and anything possible in boxing, he has the money and the connection to make everybody involved so I think it will be successful, boxing fans are very hungry in live boxing and they are going to make money from pay per view they can even break the record if they have a good name in their cards, let's see how they are going to push this in the midst of the pandemic.
There is still a risk of getting the virus, why is it that people aren't following what the government asked them to. If they will make this private then it is possible, no gathering in a venue, no other people, then they can make this happen. Especially that they should prioritize the safety and health of other people before doing this so. Bob Arum should also prioritize the health of the staffs that will make this Boxing betting possible. But if I were you, I will wait for this pandemic to end so that it is not that hassle to create an event where people will risk their health to get the virus just to make money. There are a lot of sports betting in an online casinos or fantasy betting, you should mind you safety and prevent this physical contact while this pandemic is still active. |
