That is not even a reason at all. Do you even understand anything about market and economics in general? How does holding one's asset contribute to the reduction in value ? So what do you want everyone to be doing? Selling their assets and then expecting the price to keep increasing ? You are really funny!

It is a sell pressure that determines the downtrend in the market and the buy pressure that determines the uptrend and if one is higher than the other, you should expect exactly just that.

Being bankrupt does not stop some people to still continue gambling. I am sure some people can end up gambling themselves into slavery if care is not taken. The best is to just find help and as long as the OP already has the mindset to quit, he should be able to take it up from there.

He should talk to people that can help him, he should visit psychologists, some even say hypnosis can work but I do not know, but at the end, the steps should be finding help and trying as much as possible to stay away from gambling no matter how much the impulses come.

The mistake a lot of people make is to expect so much from gambling and then keep deceiving themselves with the idea of having a positive energy. The only energy will all have is the energy where you tell yourself when to stop and that is the only energy you need to control the gambling impulse that speaks to your mind telling you to keep gambling the little that you have left as long as you have a positive energy. At the end, they end up losing all and also end up adding addiction to their life.

Choosing a coin to invest is not the work we are talking about here, and if it is all about investing in a coin, be it one that is on the market or ICO, then that is not a job and you can easily do that without having to leave your real job.
We are talking about skills you can make use of such as trading, IT and freelancing, and if you can have some of these skills that are highly needed, you can easily make a lot of bucks in the cryptocurrency world, but you still have to be very smart about it.

And it is that volatility that makes the whole cryptocurrency space tick. It is good for traders anyway and I have been enjoying the volatility and for those worrying themselves already with their comments as if bitcoin is already stable, they really do not need to bother themselves much.

All the above, even if at all it gets stable to a point that the volatility is no longer high, it will still be usable for me for a lot of things that we cannot even start mentioning but for most of it, transaction purposes.

Holding is not the only way to go but to see some of the attributes of cryptocurrencies giving it the capability to achieve the level of mainstream adoption and all those things are the attributes of what the OP has mentioned. With respect to security though, that is not guaranteed. It is an investment and every investor should know better already with the market being a decentralized one.

Cryptocurrencies are not far from what the world need I must say. I feel the main essence anyway to be able to have a form of decentralized currency which we can all easily transact across the globe without any government clamping down on us and then having it done speedily without any delay. I guess we are heading there gradually as things are already getting better.

Apparently, it may seem like that. We all have our own way of reasoning and how we see things. However, not all opinions are right and Tone Vays on is one of that.

I am pretty much angry with alts too considering that they just get burned out on the slightest movement of bitcoin, like they are just scare of the legacy coin and they really do have no support to get them sustained without relying too much on bitcoin's movement but then because of that calling every one of them scam is not right. Some will still stand the test of time, especially those ones with products.

I do not even expect the government to keep quiet in an environment where a lot of money is being raised globally and by lot, a whole lot of it and the fact that regulating it will benefit the governments. Additionally, considering the fact that scam has been a norm of the day for ICOs, it is high time they started packing their loads and counting their days.

I believe with these developments, things should turn out fine for the ICO space in the long run, which places more advantage to it than disadvantages.

I have not really experienced this anyway, may be that is because I only wear the signature of a particular project I am investing in to at least have more of the tokens, and for the fact that I have done my research on the team not to end up failing on their words, it makes things so easy for me not running into any of them.

I understand I have read a lot of thread with respect to this, but whichever team ends up doing that does not actually want anything good for such project.

What kind of gambling game will church even be promoting ? I guess I am confused a little bit here. Gambling is gambling, so why will a church be given an extra priority to go ahead with gambling games and disallow others ?

With your second sentence though, I totally relate with that, because irrespective of how much the government makes gambling illegal, some will still try to always find a way to somehow to do it and same in my country, where there are some undergrounds such things happening with you being able to even get in with a code only, so it is more like a circle.

I guess you lost the love of your life when you were thinking you would get something from her that night right? And she ended up bouncing you out in the cold weather with you walking home thinking about your life and how she rubbished you?

Really what is the point telling us you had a walk of shame not related to gambling without telling us the experience you had and now you decided to leave us hanging and imagining things in our own head? You deserve your walk of shame for this thing you just did. Moreover, if you can handle to go home ashamed from your losses, I wonder how terrible what you experienced must have been.

Sorry but that story of yours is only touching to the heart but let us face reality here, there is no positive thinking that can help you in gambling.

It is easy for everyone to think positively and if we are really to talk about high level of positive thinking, I should have won all my lotteries at least once on freebitco.in by now. Jokes apart though, it does not work, just do your thing, expect to get lucky and if you do not, count it as part of the game but setting your hopes too high because of positive thinking, you will end up dipping yourself inside a hot pot of soup.

Some of the square like jumps and drops are either the bear flags or the bull flags as the case may be but one thing about this whole market right now is that it is not really different from the normal stocks or Forex sometimes. Some already have an upper hand in the market as whales and whether we like it or not, they are going to always play their game however they like.

Still, this is one thing we can never rule out until we really find our way to the mainstream and bitcoin get to be used really as a currency with high level of mass adoption. Then, I want to see who want to control it as a puppet when that time comes.

Cruel indeed but I would not really bother about him for now anymore. If he really wants to dump, he can be my guest right now and in fact, some of us really need to get what he is holding at a very good price, so he is free to sell them to us.

The main factor in the market is that if supply is more than demand, there would always be a drop in the price, and for him since he has decided to do his thing on an exchange where prices affects generally, then his supply is more than the demand from those exchanges which is causing a lot of this.

I really would not mind getting some information on this as well. However 83% accuracy sounds a little bit low. 17% is a lot and knowing that there may be some error in spotting some good ones to be bad ones within this few percentage is not a good one.

All the above, if it is for real, it should at least help in a way for the investors who may care anyway but I feel for me to be able to use this, it should be 99 or nothing. Come on! I have even been doing better with 100% accuracy so far in detecting scams, but not the life expectancy thing though.

If the decentralized exchanges end up working out perfectly well, then I can see them booming a lot and the centralized exchanges taking a huge hit for that, but still when it comes to liquidity, the ease to use, I feel the centralized exchanges may still have an edge but who knows. It is the cryptocurrency world and anything can happen, and with the idea of the decentralized exchanges being favorable and booming, we should even expect the government to start getting their hands dirty on eliminating cryptocurrency entirely as that shows more threat.

If he has really prepared himself for trading, then selling will be the last thing he wants to do right now. Also, if he is prepared, then why ask us since I believe he should know what to do already. Some people think they can just recover their losses from trading anytime they feel like without learning, he will just end up losing more and the whales will be happy to take the little he has been managing to hold away from him.

The best is for him to be patient and hold, and if he wants to trade, he should start learning, then know when to sell when the market starts skyrocketing and giving a sell signal.

No smart investor will be stupid enough to keep holding when a trend is changing anyway when they can easily just chill and buy low but some always think it is all about holding. Please, no one should get me wrong; HODLing is fine and as long as you are not a good trader, please always do because that is the safest.

Although for traders, there is what they always look out for in a trade and when that signal shows, the confidence is there to make a trade; either to buy or to sell since they know exactly what they are doing without forgetting to stop any loss in case anything changes fundamentally.

They cannot change what has been done bro and unless they start giving us the crap that all protocols of all the available market to be changed to become a centralized market, otherwise face the consequences, then I see no other way what you have said can play out which what I have said is not even going to be possible.

I am sure what is going to happen is just putting in place some regulations for ICOs, exchanges and some other stuffs but not changing the idea of decentralization.

Hacking was never the problem and that was just by the way and a coincidence. It was not even a hack in the first place and binance explained all of that and good they were quickly able to halt that.

However, this MtGox guy was just really busy dumping on the market and really, at some point, I just got tired of trading because as you keep expecting things to change, then all of a sudden you see a huge dump coming which with what he is dumping is not small at all and could easily have impact. All the same though, I am really looking forward to him offering it to me at a cheaper rate.
