I'm using multiple browsers but I especially like Google Chrome of course, but lately the BRAVE browser winks an eye to me. Brave is based on Chrome so there is a reason why I like it. Anybody else using Brave here?

I believe that 2020 will mark the beginning of the actual cryptocurrency era. The financial system needs and not only needs a serious upgrade. And cryptocurrencies are the right answer in my vision.

I think that TIME is the prime factor that will make Bitcoin break its ATH. The market moves in market cycles. The fundamentals are very strong for Bitcoin, but we have bull markets and bear markets. Nowadays we find ourselves in a prolonged bear market, but I feel that the next bull market will be much longer.

I'm too greedy to want him to invest in Bitcoin as that would pump the price like crazy. Not even mention the media coverage that BTC will automatically at a worldwide level. I can imagine newspapers' headlines: " Berkshire's Bitcoin Supremacy" lol

I do wear the signature of a bitcoin casino, but I always tell people to don't play with what they can't afford to lose. Gambling shouldn't be made for a living, but only as a hobby or for fun from time to time.

Personally watching the games I bet on adds a little bit of extra fun to them. I root for the team I bet on like a crazy man and I get pissed off very quickly. lol Quite a nice way to spend an evening.   

Some people "bury" themselves in gambling as it gives them a sense of being alive by experiencing contrarian emotions in very short amount of time. Others are caught in this addiction by pursuing the amounts lost and getting deeper and deeper into debt even losing their house, job or family.

There are many strategies to somehow increase your "edge", but you are also increasing your risk at the same time. Let's take Martingale strategy as an example. You double your stake amount everytime you lose. But depending on your betting amount per trade you can bust your entire bankroll if you encounter let's say 7-8 losses in a row.

I have never played with such big amounts. Bitcoins are just too valuable for me. Though I have recovered some of those small "recoverable" amounts you are talking about. Just always remember: only play with what you can afford to lose or else you will have so pretty hard emotions..

I start with the fact that statistically I will lose my money to the house on the long run. So I try to play fast and with kind of high stakes so I can get my winnings quick.

Here's my KYC. I am not leaving this forum. HODL Bitcointalk!! )

I am not a big fan of raffle games. I'd like to see blackjack, roulette or maybe poker & dice with 0% house edge. But I don't know how you will manage to do that..  Also how are you going to maintain the servers if you don't take an edge?

I don't think there is a specific music that crypto enthusiasts listen to, but personally I love EDM. Also pop songs and deep chill kind of music.

"all time is good for investment" is a too general statement and it is mostly applied for long term investors who don't really care about the present price. It won't make much of a difference if you buy at $2000 or at $4000 when bitcoin will be at $100k or even $1M. Of course that you could have doubled your amount. Anything has consequences in the financial world, don't get me wrong.

Of course we don't need ETFs.. That is just an illusion, a manipulation for retail traders. I'm continuously buying Bitcoin no matter at what price because I know this thing will hit $1M mark in the close to medium future.

I believe that bitcoin and cryptocurrencies are about progress and evolution besides privacy and freedom aka decentralization. Speculators are welcomed  as this is a free market but the real "winners" will be the ones who actually contribute to the adoption and understand the technology and infrastructure.

You should join the Stratis discord as the community there can provide you fast and reliable support. Forum is a little bit slow and old for technical difficulties.

Hold the altcoins you believe in long term. Hold your bitcoins if you are not an experienced trader and make investments into security tokens that are backed by an underlying asset. Mining is not profitable atm at least in my region so I'm not doing that anymore.

Most coins are like that because they don't actually create an ecosystem for the token if it is an utility token. And if it is security token then there might be some problems/uncertainities with the assets backing them. That is why I put so much weight on actually making your own research before investing time or money into a project.
