1941  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC price is decreasing. What's your strategies now? on: February 06, 2018, 06:29:49 AM
Tbh, today is a very hard day for traders and crypto holders. I chose the last option since I panicked with the current condition. I'm waiting for how far the price will go down. Then I intend to buy again if the condition has been met. My strategy may change in the future, it depends on my own analysis.
1942  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: how long you can stay without gambling? on: February 06, 2018, 01:30:25 AM
Some of the gamblers are addicted so much to these casino games so they can't stay without playing even a single day.

I can stop completely without gambling and can control myself.

How about you and how long you can control yourself for not playing these games?
i cant stop playing gambling because this games helps me to enjoy and forget my problems,i played twice a week maybe and most of the time winning is what ive get,so i forgot my problem and gain some money.isnt it lovely?

But what if you lost? You will make another problem then. Gambling to forget the problems we face is certainly very risky because our minds will be easily triggered to do silly things.
1943  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin is an asset or currency. on: February 05, 2018, 12:40:30 PM
To say a bitcoin is an asset, I think it's not right. I think bitcoin is a market for us to invest in and generate a profit rather than an asset. If you have a large amount of bitcoin when you sell and collect a lot of money then it's called the property

There is nothing wrong if we say bitcoin as an asset. For some people, they buy bitcoins and store them in their own wallets for some period of time and when their assets (bitcoin in this case) grow in price, then they sell it for profit. In addition, the use of bitcoin as a currency in some countries is not allowed and that is why people from these countries will mostly treat it as an asset. I have no idea why you called bitcoin as a property. Where did you get that idea?
1944  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: From faucet to thousands on: February 05, 2018, 11:32:31 AM
I do agree that now faucets ain't really worth it any more unless people find a good Altcoin faucet/s that pay a good amount of coins.

I was claiming from faucets in 2015 right up to the start of 2017 and that is when I stopped as the rewards were getting smaller and smaller as the price of BTC started going up. However I have made a lot of money from faucets because I bought other Alts with the BTC I used to get from faucets and now most of those Alts have gone up 10x from 2015 and 2016 so yes it was possible to make thousands from faucets if people used them right. By that I mean buying Alts with the BTC earned like I did.

If you play with the faucet in 2015/2016 and you save it as bitcoin instead of buying alts, maybe you'll earn more money. As I remember, the bitcoin price in 2015 is about 300-500 USD and now the price has been increased more than 10x. Today's faucet amount has been decreased, hence it will be so hard to repeat what you've done in the past.
1945  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is bitcoin is the new era of currency? on: February 04, 2018, 05:17:04 PM
It seems that Bitcoin (mostly) and other cryptocurrencies will be the new era of currencies.Because i believe that money will not be physical anymore in the future.I think it will be virtual and transfers will be done on lightning speed.So, people will start to use Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies instead of the currencies that we use nowadays.

Bitcoin as a currency can not be applied globally because there are many countries that do not allow it to happen. As in my country, the government clearly states that the use of bitcoin as a means of payment is illegal and threatened with criminal law. We can only treat it as an asset, no more and no less.
1946  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: gambling ends on: February 04, 2018, 09:59:17 AM
can this world stop in gambling?
someone who like to gamble hard to escape from the gambling trap. almost like a drug addict. Even after they went bankrupt still struggling to gamble by borrowing money for gambling. Actually what do they expect?

Gambling can't be stopped. There are a lot of people who sees this gambling as a habit, you know, they need to gamble for a day because if they don't, they're day will not be completed. I don't know why would someone will be addicted to this kind of game where you waste your money, relying into your luck.

These are typical gamblers and already they have spend a long life in gambling that's why they can't escape from gambling. We can call them they are addicted gamblers. If we play gambling continuously and without manage our money then gambling become for us addiction like a drug addiction, then we can do anything but we can't change our habits.   

Addiction can be treated but it will certainly take a relatively long time and effort. Each person's level of addiction is different and the treatment will be different too. Some people may able to leave gambling after facing a hard time or lose too much, while some others may do bad things to keep gambling. But one thing for sure, at the end, gamblers will end their journey no matter at what condition they end it.
1947  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: how long you can stay without gambling? on: February 04, 2018, 05:37:42 AM
Staying without gambling is a big challenges to us, because it is a part of human being. Gambling is regarding dealing with the others, for example you are dealing for a business it is also gambling even without doing anything. All things have a risks is a part of gambling but it's up to us if we do literally gambling or not.
Yes and specially those people who have become addcited to gamblng. In fact addicted people cannot stay away for a single day from gambling, they want to play gambling daily. To me i personally addicted to gambling and i really find it to hard to stop gambling for a single day, i always manage to make myself free for playing gambling daily and never compromise to quit it for a single day.
i guess not,i can stand without gambling for life,as i am not really engaged i this kind of activity,I played gambling for fun,but if someones require me not to play i am pleased to do it with all my heart,my family dont bring us to life with gambling,my father and mother kow nothing about gambling.mei just learn from some friends but not all types i know,just a few

You could say that because you are not addicted to gambling, what he said was that those people who are addicted on gambling can't even stay away from it even for just a single day, I guess you misunderstood it. You are a lucky person though because you could control yourself when playing gambling, playing gambling for fun is not that addicted since you are not after the money.

Yes, if we are already addicted to gambling at a heavy level, gamble will be hard to avoid. I've felt how bitter being an addict and my life is almost messy about it. But fortunately, right now, I've been able to change my perspective on gambling and I'm slow but certainly able to reduce my gambling activities.
1948  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Does Social Media Influence bitcoin growth? on: February 03, 2018, 06:42:48 PM
Of course social media gives a significant influence in the popularity of bitcoin. But that's not the only one. There are still some places that give a big influence, gambling place is one of them.
1949  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL) on: February 03, 2018, 06:18:05 PM
Sanchez didn't look to good for his at home game since the trade from Arsenal to Manchester United.
Henrikh Mkhitaryan on the other hand have contributed to the first goal as an assist against Everton and they are now 3 goals up in the first 17 minutes of play. Wink

Go Gunners! Cool

Really an unbalanced match in the first half. Everton almost helpless to serve the Arsenal game who seemed to be hungry for goals. I hope in the second half, Everton will rise and make this game more interesting.
1950  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is it too late to buy bitcoin? on: February 02, 2018, 04:58:55 PM
The price is in the down trend now and I think this is the good time to buy some bitcoin and hold it for a longer time. It's never too late if we want to invest in bitcoin. We just need to find the right time to buy and resell it.
1951  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why not play games online instead of gambling? on: February 02, 2018, 01:11:37 PM
Many but not all gamblers are claiming they gamble for fun and pass time. I was just thinking. If it is the reason why people gamble then why not play online games? There is a lot of good and challenging onlne games wherein you can interact with other people online?
Man, it's like to ask: Why don't you play assassinms creed over prince of persia. Really, it's similar question. Everyone has different taste, for some people poker and blackjack is good, for others some arcades and etc. Everyone finds different thing for fun. Usually people gamble for getting profit but if anyone claims they gamble for fun, that's great if it's reality.

Agree, everyone has their own pleasure. Not everyone likes to play online games including gamblers. We have different tastes. Look out there! There are some people who willing to do a very risky thing like climbing the mounthain and so on just to get fun.
1952  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can maths help you win in gambling ? on: February 02, 2018, 09:06:53 AM
I do not think that using math or other predictions you can win in gambling, and especially in roulette. There everything is designed for pleasure, not profit.
I agree,i think math can't help to win in gambling..In some ways math are applied like in playing card games but it really never give you the advantages to win in gambling.

True, math will not give us the assurance that we can always win in gambling. Math in gambling is just a way to predict the outcome of our game. Math can be used to manage our money as well but the end result won't depend on it.
1953  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: what was your biggest crypto mistake? on: February 01, 2018, 08:57:55 PM
Wasting time on cloud mining in 2015.
I've dabbled with Cloud Mining as well, that was a waste of coins. Most people are falling for the same scheme.

On the first day of my bitcoin journey, I fell into this scam thing too. I wasn't aware of the possibility because the reward they offered had covered my mind. I can't think clearly before putting my money on cloud mining sites.
1954  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Are you picky with ICOs? on: February 01, 2018, 06:47:51 PM
it depends on how a person interracts with an ICO. If you take up social media bounty, you may be not picky. All the risks you hve is not receiving stacks for reposts. But i a person thinks of buying some tokens, then of course maximum research must be done.

Indeed, when we only participate in the bounty of ICO, we do not need to be picky as long as we can do the job they ask for. But when we want to invest our own money in ICO, we have to do more research before we decide which ICO we will choose. Otherwise, we can lose everything!
1955  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling. Is It Wrong? on: February 01, 2018, 11:51:48 AM
For me gambling is kind of a game, that when you do not know how to handle it and making it habitual well i guess most of the time won’t give good impact to your life, it becomes bad when addiction manipulates you already and can’t control on spending already despite of loses, but if you just gamble on a very seasonal, just to unwind maybe, or for profit but plays within the limit, then we could consider it as leisure, so it’s up to you on how you gamble😃

Playing with the limits and money we can afford to lose will be the best way to choose. Whenever we reach the limit, whether it's up or down, we have to stop the game. Another more important thing is, do not let your emotions control your game. This will trigger our greed to come.
1956  Economy / Gambling / Re: ▂▃▅▆█ BITSLER █▆▅▃▂🎁3 NEW COINS★★★22nd BILLION BETS PROMO★★★🎁 on: February 01, 2018, 08:06:19 AM
THE UPDATE IS OVER.


VERY GOOD NEWS FOR SOME PLAYERS :

All the accounts which had at least 0.0005 BTC during the BCH fork on Bitsler, have now received the equivalent in BCH.
Really guys? Will I receive my BCH? I'll check it now. That's amazing, thanks a lot for that.
Also despite the fact that I haven't posted here about which coins would be added, I was right about Dash and Bitcoin cash, had no idea if you would add zcash too. That's really great news, especially all together.
Congrats.....

Obviously a good news for Bitsler players who has some balance during the HardFork, it is like a surprise gift from Bitsler because there was no signs that they will distribute it after the Hard Fork.
And more coins will be added next weeks? Very good start in 2018 and absolutely it will bring more players. Good JOB!

This is a big surprise for people who have bitcoin on bitsler but are not aware about hardfork events. Tbh, I withdrew my balance before the fork since Baryom stated that bitsler would not support it. Adding 3 more coins to bitsler is a good approach because users will have more options to choose from.
1957  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you feel shameful for being a gambler? on: February 01, 2018, 06:41:49 AM
There is nothing to be ashame it is my chose to play with my money lose or win money this is my chose to make i just want to have fun so why been ashamed of gambling. It is something that change my day so why to stop

If you live in a country where gambling is allowed, you have no worry about your activity hence you could say you won't be shame because of it. But, for some people who live in a country where gambling is marked as an illegal activity, they will be shame if someone else knowing their activities cause gambling can be considered as crime.
1958  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: restaurant in bali closed on: January 31, 2018, 05:32:56 PM
I am very happy if there is a country in which there is a culinary company or a restaurant that receives payments with bitcoin, although in the country prohibits bitcoin.
like in bali, there is a restaurant that receives payment with bitcoin, but a few days ago I watched a show on television that the security forces closed the restaurant.
why are the security so evil? they only use it for food payments, not for criminals. or do they equate bitcoin payments as a crime? it's very unreasonable.
what do you think about it ?

It is because in Indonesia, the use of bitcoin as a means of payment isn't allowed. I read the news regarding this event too. Indonesian government already gave a warning regarding this policy but the restaurant not heed  it.
1959  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: how long you can stay without gambling? on: January 31, 2018, 12:13:42 PM
i'm not that addicted i can stay months without gambling but i always want to make a profit so when ever i have money i gamble until i lose them all or i reach a good amount that i fixed before starting. but it happen sometime the most of it i lose all my money and stay without gambling for the rest of the month waiting for new income.

It's good that you already have a good plan before you gamble. But I will remind you of the fact that even though we already have a good plan, sometimes, a little situation can change it especially when we realize that we've lost a lot of money because of gambling (the total amount of money we throw at gambling). Some people will try to chase it and break their own rules.
1960  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL) on: January 31, 2018, 09:16:36 AM
Tottenham vs Manchester United - DRAW - Very equal teams - which I think in this game will not a winner

It is hard to predict who will win this game. Draw maybe is the best choice to be picked and I combine it with both teams to score too. I have a feeling that there will be more goals to create at this game.
