for the acquisition of all necessary goods and services is quite enough the usual dollars, debit cards and services installed on the smartphone. In addition, on the way to the widespread adoption of bitcoin as a means of payment are significant legal, regulatory and, finally, cultural barriers. At the same time, at this stage, bitcoin is valuable as a valuable investment object, a kind of "digital gold". I doubt that in the foreseeable future the average inhabitant of the planet will use bitcoin for the everyday acquisition of the benefits it needs.

You are right that there is really won't happen the so called all bitcoin transactions in a person's day to day living. The fact that we live in a country whose financial transactions are regulated by the government says it all - unless our government is in chaos and is no longer functioning, then maybe that is the time bitcoin can be used. But that is really far from the reality.
1842  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why some people prefer Bitcoin over fiat ? on: June 25, 2017, 01:22:07 PM
Bitcoin is being used widely in porn sites, gambling and drug dealing sectors. Is that why the btc made for ? I have seen a lot of members in this forum discussing about buying drugs, gambling and enjoying porn with bitcoin. Is not it a misuse of a currency ? Block chain tech is a awesome tech and btc is getting popular. I hate these misuses of precious btc. It hurts me. This will lead into unhealthy society along with unhealthy future generation.
Some people prefer bitcoin over piat because bitcoin is already tested and bitcoin is really legit.With bitcoin you will be able to make money online using your less money and less of your effort.With bitcoin you can change your financial status.

you are right - because bitcoin proves itself already and is continually being used by many individuals and not mentioning the fact how the price of bitcoin really soar high these press time, there is no wonder that there are people who shifted their focus an dinvestment to bitcoins and some other altcoins versus their ordinary fiat investment.

How does one Put down Gambling for good?

Focus yourself on other things. If your reason only to gambk8ng is that you want to earn or to have income you must focus on other things as well as find some stable jobs so that you don't need to put all of your money to gambling and you dont need to lose and lose again and again. Find yourself a stable and good job.
well that's right instead of thinking for an easy way to earn why not find a good job and use your time in a proper ways, like spending your time with your love ones or with your friends which can allow you to quit with your gambling activity.
Divert your attention to what really matters you and for most of us family is our main priority because we live for them also.
Having a problem is normal and regardless how big or small it is, the important thing is we have to accept and seek the help of the people who really cares for us, and also that problem like gambling addiction will never vanish if we will not change our interest in life, you need sacrifice to be able to quit.

There are people that have broken family ties due to gambling addiction - the best thing to do then is patch up those gap with family and loved ones and gain strength from them. Family support system is essential to overcome in some troubled times.
1845  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can gambling be profitable in long term ? on: June 25, 2017, 12:56:01 PM
What does this long time profitabilityin gambling means?, It's the experience that the user gains in money management, now with this he'll be managing it in the right way nd spends the required amount. This profits the user, people at the beginning days were unaware of the same. So Profiting in long term is because of the experience, but even for that luck is necessary.
I'm not quite sure the experience can make you win many gambling games. Gambling is strongly influenced by luck, so for the long term I think gambling is not the right choice. For me gambling is an entertainment, not for profit.

LOL. Experience would only make you take more educated guesses but nevertheless it all depends on your luck at the end.

Profiting from gambling is just a wet dream. An experienced gambler always know deep inside that casinos are the real winners everytime.
No, it's not a dream if you will really find ways to make it possible, saying that it's like a dreams is like saying that winning in gambling is not possible which is not true since we have witness some who have a successful career as a gambler. Maybe we cannot do it but others will surely do, it will lead to the reality that not all we want can be achieve and we have to focus our time on where we are good so we can benefit.

Nicely put there mate! There are really exceptional individuals who do good in the gambling industry and are well equipped with good strategies and self-discipline and made a killing in their gambling career. If you are not like them or even close to being like them, better just play for fun and be grateful with what you have right now in your income source.

I'm sure one days bitcoin will make banks disappear and take over the function of fiat money.

Wow! Really huh?
How come is that? Even though bitcoin is popular today and widely use in the internet world its not enough to say that.
Some banks run by the private sector some are by government, do you think they let that happen?
Just a like a bubble that disappear? Of course they dont. Banks are well establish enough to maintain its financial status.
Think twice.

Absolutely! Bitcoin cannot just simply pop the bank balloon just like that. In fact, insofar as this particular phase is concerned, bitcoin is really a no match for banks. Banks have been here for a long while already, much established, much trusted, much services are also offered, etc. Bitcoin, on the other hand, is just beginning to walk. They cannot threaten the banks enormously. Although it has already got their attention.

Bitcoin should not be looked at as replacement to banks and just an alternative for online financial transactions where bitcoins is one of the mode of payment. Banks is already an institution and is essential in financial industry and to ordinary people where they save their money and even a channel to receive their source of income.

In my view there is no need to quit gambling, when you love to be a part of gambling. This is all about fun and excitement, only very few will be successful and the rest just enjoy it and leave it's our fate to loss. So to avoid this stick to limitations and the rest will be happening good, because out of curiosity on winning and frustration on losing people somehow try to make money. This should be stopped and the rest happens in a better way.

It totally depends on yourself, if you want to quit then quit. If you want to play then play however if you only want to play for fun then my best advice would be to quit it altogether. There is no point to play for fun when you know that you can play other kind of game. In the end you are going to just lose your money

With the online casinos, the reasons people are playing because of either just for fun and for money. Because on the brick and mortar casinos, some of the players reason can be to network for potential business partner venture and just for socialization but for online casinos you are somewhat limited to few reasons. I just hope that you just play for fun and not get hooked at it.
1848  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How do you manage ur emotions? on: June 25, 2017, 03:11:24 AM
It's normal for feeling afraid or worry. But if you can't make a good decision because of that then you don't have what it takes to do trading. I am always sure that my coin will go up even if they down, because i know why they fall and i know why they up. The source of your worry or fear is because u don't understand why it drops in price. I'm still learning but i always learn to do real trading not just buy low sell high. There's more than the eyes meet.

That is right mate and it is really a basic thing to understand that the prices of any coins will go up and down no matter what it is a reality so always have that in mind that it will rise soon. Just because it is down from the moment you bought that coin, means that you get panic and sell very early at the expense of losing value of your coins.
1849  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: June 25, 2017, 03:03:03 AM
Gambling always gives hope for the possibility of an easy way to get a lot of money and not everyone can resist this temptation.

The hope is there and they will also try to show every possible way that the hope is true but it is actually half-true since the chance is very low and the people dont reason it out and start playing indiscriminately. That is the reason why people will get addicted to it. Maybe one can win big once or maybe twice but then that does not mean that every time they play they would win. Rather it is mostly the opposite and you may just lose all your money there.

I can relate to this when I was still pretty active gambler to one of the online casinos before - on the chat box, there are many people that share their strategies and let you try it because it worked for them but before you know it, you are again encountered many loses.
1850  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can gambling be profitable in long term ? on: June 25, 2017, 02:55:29 AM
I have not seen people who constantly get a good profit in a game of chance, can sometimes be lucky, but not always.

It is not possible on an EV- game where the odds are against you. If that would happen then the casino would lose more money than what they earn and hence lead to bankruptcy. Hence only a handful of players that too only once or very luckily twice have won jackpots and big wins. So the amount won by the players is very small compared to the wins of the house. Thats the way the casino business works.

Casinos are designed to give fun and entertainment to its players and in return, they get compensated by the losing of players which they have already well calculated and calibrated through their house edge advantage. That is why casinos are thriving and booming because they give lots of fun and entertainment and they earn a lot also in the process.
1851  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: how to start trading with a very small amount on: June 25, 2017, 02:40:35 AM
Do not enter to the trading world if your capital is so very small because it will eat only by the transaction fee. Invest a high money I know it is good and it is really effective to have a good profit.
transaction fee is too much high no doubt, but i think if a person has limited amount of money then he has good opportunity to trade cheap coins which have more chances to increase their prices.

That is really the beauty of trading altcoins because you can invest with very little bankroll and you are good to go with learning how to trade with crypto.  Once you are confident enough with your trading skills and capability, it is high time to increase that bankroll and make a killing! Smiley
1852  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your reason to gamble? Fun or profit? on: June 25, 2017, 02:34:32 AM
My reason to gamble is for money..becauase i dont have lots of money and i will try and try any gamble to have some profit..
Unlike any other business there money is existing they have already have it ..thats why some of them do it by making some fun only they dont care if they loose or they win.in reality of the rich people they do gambling for fun and not for profit..
Some of them make gambling as an brain excercise to reduce stress and not to be bored in thier life..but for as what i have said..gambling is for money.
yes the majority of people are playing gambling for making money, because gambling make for making money and not for fun, because i never feel any fun while playing it without investing any money, even when some time setting with my friends and play on card for nothing it really feel so much boring. but when money is involve there then there is always a lot of fun an enjoyment.

Make sense but the money involve must be money that you can afford to lose because we all know that we are more often losses on gambling than winning especially if we are playing against the online casino and not on other gamblers like poker because when playing with these casinos, they are aready on the advantage due to house edge advantage.
1853  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does experience matter in gambling? on: June 25, 2017, 02:31:18 AM
I think, experience can be a little bit helpful in the purpose of gambling, basically gambling is a luck based activity but experience matters all the way, if you have knowledge about the gambling then it would be easier to make decision for this purpose. Whatever the case is experience is the vital factor to make a good outcome...

But in gambling, you just need to be lucky to make money all these experiences no need. But if you got a lot of experience and no luck still you can't win money from gambling. However, with gambling experience, you can save yours loses by stopping on a right time without losing all your money.

If you make good use of experiences at your advantage like: don't bet yolo and divide you bankroll according to your number of sessions to play, spend only money that you can afford to lose and never get tempted to bet more of that, don't get greedy as compared to your previous greediness that leads to great losses, and the like.
1854  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling addiction. on: June 25, 2017, 02:27:35 AM
I think it is too easy to blame gambling or drugs or booze for that matter. We must accept and take responsibility for our action. Also remember if you never gamble you will never win. It is hard to say when to stop since your next game could make all the difference and bring you out of dent and  a lot. These are the dangers of gambling and we need to accept them.

Yes I accept what I am doing and that is why I get addicted . Whenever I want to play, I will always play no matter what however I dont really think that Im going to break myself and get into trouble because what I am doing is quite in a small scale. I only gamble with small amount for fun everyday in my favourite site
You will get addicted even you will not accept what you will be facing. That must be the beauty of gambling as both winner and loser will get addicted to gambling for their own reasons.

But I wonder why you are not taking steps to get rid off your gambling addictions by simply following few basic principles of staying safer with gambling. The first step must be limiting your gambling sessions which must be giving positive results in very quick time.

I agree that both losers and winners on gambling somehow got addicted to gambling and one of the first step is having the courage and discipline to limit gambling sessions and then do other stuffs that will redirect your attention from gambling to that new stuff you are doing - hopefully the latter is productive activity though! Smiley
1855  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does experience matter in gambling? on: June 24, 2017, 12:42:17 AM
No, experience doesn't matter in games of chance like dice and slot machines, now if there is a certain skill required, then yes experience helps.
But maybe the experience will help you in managing your finances, and it can be included in managing finances to play in some games that do not require. I always thought that managing finances was part of the gamble, so I think the experience would be helpful in any game.

Managing finances is one of the many strategies on gambling. We need to master many in order to mitigate risks. There is no guarantee to win all of the time when we have strategies in place but we mitigate risks and have more chances of winning than losing compared to no strategy at all.
1856  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your reason to gamble? Fun or profit? on: June 24, 2017, 12:33:43 AM
Today I played for entertainment in the beginning and I really had fun. I was able to make a few bucks and shared it with the community. At some point I was thinking of calling it a day but my greed got the better of me. And you probably know what is the ending.

hahaha.. we can all relate to that my friend! I even have times where I won .2 btc and then raised it to .8 in just one session. I thought of stopping but my finger keeps on clicking the mouse and before I knew it, all of my bankroll is zero
1857  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling addiction. on: June 24, 2017, 12:29:42 AM
Yes gambling is addicting once we win the target in the first time and got a big price thats the start that we are addicted to gamling. And when we have some money or enough money we gamble, we gamble until we have money to use,stop when we have none and be smart to gamble, just gamble when you have a big luck.
I just want to know how to identify when I will be having big luck to gamble ?
If gamblers will be capable of identifying when there will be luck favoring them then probably they could prevent gambling addictions completely because they will gamble and they will get what they are aiming hence there will be no reason to struggle with gambling which must be the reason why gamblers are getting addiction most of the times.

It's impossible to know exactly if we will hit the target before the long loss streak comes. But I believe everyone who usually plays gambling games have this opportunity on their gameplay . When it happens and you achieve your target, stop playing, this way you avoid the gambling addiction and the bankruptcy. If you don't hit the target, stop playing and try again later.

Many gamblers could make profit if they weren't greedy, because chances to stop playing with profit I'm sure they have already had.

The best strategy to combat this - stopping and resuming gambling is creating sessions out of your bankroll. What I mean by this is that, you can divide your bankroll into 10 so that would be 10 sessions and play per session. Each session, you have a target gain and have pre-planned bets. Stop when you hit that gain and stop when you lose that session and move on to the next session.

This is a better way than just gamble all of your bankroll in one session or worst bet yolo.
1858  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How do you manage ur emotions? on: June 24, 2017, 12:24:18 AM
Losing is a part of being a trader. If you lose do not panic and do not curse your self it is normal if you lose in trading often. I managed my emotions by thinking positive always.
Having a bad vibes or bad emotion is still natural, the thing that we need to do is how we manage it, as  for me theres a big impact of emotion to me. It can affect me very much, when i am not into good mood, i stop doing the thing that i want to do it leads to a wrong thing. I dont want  to be in a bad mood so as long as i could, i think positvely.

I used to freak out too. A lot and I mean a loooot. Especially when I was margin trading and that P/L table goes all the way red, I used to lose my temper and going into somewhat small depressions. I wasn't able to eat or enjoy from anything, constantly smoking. Thats day trading tho.

I've put aside day trading because the more I close my short at %10 it goes another %200. Know I'm just a calm long term investor in the projects I believe have a chance to be succesful. I check the prices a day and watch my capital slowly grow. Wink

I was on the same shoe as you mate - I find it very stressful to do margin trading on polo and I just decide to stop margin trading because the profit and gains could not pay the stress and anxiety that I am experiencing while my margin trades are on.
1859  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: how to start trading with a very small amount on: June 24, 2017, 12:18:24 AM
I remember when i start trading with zero knowledge in trading, really zero knowledge. At first, there was only loss and loss and loss, becoz i buy and sell, no plan no target no research. Then i start again with around 600 doge (when price @22sat), some experience and my own trading method.
Research are everything (experience too). Becoz if you get the right coin, your capital could be multiplied by 10x
You had a very tough experience in the past for to start the trade. I think it is not to start anything without any knowledge as theer will be lose if we will start then we have to take the guidance from an expert person so we will not lose.
yes that is right that if a person is going to start trading with zero knowledge then you need to get experience first and for that you have to invest small amount of money, because if you do not have good knowledge about trading then the risk of losing money is more and and you can lose money a lot.
Yeah experience and skill is very important for a successful trading  and you are right that with out knowledge and experience trading is risky and if some one want to get knowledge and experience in trading you should invest in low amount of money in trading.
Yeah the skill is really important to have a successful and have a good profit. You must be smart to have a different techniques for you to earn a lot of profit. Small amount can lift you up.
but i think not only skill but there are so many other factors which are effecting your trading result, your experience, your planning, your trading behavior and the most important is your investment are the important factor that are necessary for becoming successful in trading. for example you have a very limited amount of money and you want to trading bitcoin with, so you can get profit from it but even holding your bitcoin for a long time you cannot make such a good profit from it.

Good point and make sense. In trading, we should possess not only certain skill but overall skills and self-discipline. Because there are people who have good knowledge, foundation, and trading skills but yet are not good in managing their emotions and get distracted to the outcome of their trades and exit too early or too late.
1860  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: June 22, 2017, 01:05:44 AM
I am not addicted on gambling.addicted word will be used for when a player will play continuous on gambling and he can not left until lose all of his money and wealth.I saw few people play gambling for fun.they lose how much they can effort and they are happy to play gambling.I play sometimes gambling I invest on gambling how much I can effort.have play and fun  Grin

When you only play with money that you can afford to lose and just gamble for fun and entertainment, then you really don't have to worry whether or not you are going to win or lose. However, winning is really an added bonus though which adds more to the fun! Smiley
