You are right that is games like dice there are more chances to lose money because the gamblers do not have any control on the game and so not any control on their money which they put in that game while if they go for sports betting then they will have control on their betting and will win the games more often if they have experience in that sports.

And the only factor that stands between them is the ability to control once emotion.  To be able to resist frustration or too much joy will give you time to analyze situation.  You can also think wisely because of having your thought in balance situation.  This will make you avoid unnecessary judgement that will lead to your bankroll being emptied.

It recently crashed in price and Bitcoin is holding strong on its current rate range.  I would recommend to hold.  There is a possibility that bitcoin next movement is uptrend. Or if you know how to do hedging do it until you reach your desired price.
1963  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Reason Bitcoin will always be #1 on: January 10, 2017, 08:49:43 PM
Is because the name "Bitcoin" is the best name for a crypto-currency.

No other name will be as good.

I think people will always find a cooler name than bitcoin, but the reason why Bitcoin is number one because of being the pioneer of cryptocurrency and being adopted by majority of population of cryptocurrency.  And that is also the reason why Bitcoin is almost the best name for cryptocurrency.

It is sad that this ICO failed. Any plan for the next step dev?  I read you have conversation with Placebo, are you planning to bring this to Yobit and do what Placebo suggested.  To do Rocket ICO?
1965  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you use Cashback or bonuses? on: January 09, 2017, 11:50:57 PM
As I previously stated in another gambling discussion, bonuses play a role in my gambling strategy for slots.
Cashback programs are very rare. I participate in the Betcoin poker cashback program what however is offered by the user which have a special agreement with the casino. It is a good way to reduce the losses a little and get a percentage of fees back.
We have cashback at Oshi as well - honestly it should be normal because it is alternative to bonuses which are not popular by all gamblers.
If you could chose what would you want to have?

I like cashbacks more because you than really get something for it back with bonuses this is not the fact at all..

I do like cashbacks too.  The reason is simple.  I can get another chance to win betting on the games where I lost Smiley.  Aside from the add on excitement, having free roll (considered free because it is considered bonus from the previous bankroll) is always good and who know, this cashback can give me more than my previous bankroll .

If u have enough money to buy any code u want promotions and merchant adoption will certainly add up. Though ur team is a bunch of idiots that dont know what to do with their money and constantly misguide the importance of cautious fund management to success of their campaign.
Hmm it seems you have a good idea here, care to tell them what should be done?  your  sentence is quite broad, and almost does not bring any help.  Just an insult to the VTY team.  Example, what code do you recommend  for the team to buy so that promotion would be automated and how sure are you that merchant will adopt by simply buying this code?  Where would the team buy this code?  And what would you suggest about managing their fund , and how it will contribute to the success of the VTY campaign?  More detailed instruction is much better than a few lines of insult, anyway i think it is easier the other way around Smiley
LOL.. dont expect him to answer you here. Hes just a Sr. Member in rank while still newbie in mind and a mad dog finding his lost bones.  Cool lol.. I dont know if he understand what hes talking about.

It seems he has something to convey but somehow it is lost within the translation i guess Smiley 

I have watch this coin, and dev are continously doing their best to make this project prosper.  they have a new skin of announcement which is better than before.  Continuous upgrade of the service and sites.  Just keep them coming dev.  And add more people that can help the development of the coin.
1967  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: When do you plan to sell? on: January 09, 2017, 10:36:49 PM
I planned to sell when bitcoin hit $1300 but it fell short before the dump begin.  I have my Bitcoin at around $900  so I think a $400  is a good profit but it seems it is hard to get such profit in a short time.  So I think I will sell when Bitcoin revisited $1130 to make sure and book a profit then buy when it goes back at $950
1968  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: 🌟🔴🌟🔴 ICOBID PLATFORM 🌟🔴🌟🔴 BRING GREAT IDEAS TO LIFE 🌟🔴🌟🔴 ICO LIVE on: January 09, 2017, 09:58:43 PM
I see crunck and his Suicide Friend has come to spam and spread fud here. This is the same dude who was selling below ICO Price so one way or another, You contributed to this mess.
I agree with hubballi
Exactly right... why pay 1000sats when you can pop into the market section and get them at sub 500sats
Better to get in exchange and let them get on with it, price may rise above ICO price so then people would start buying from official ICO again
As per my view as soon as the coin hits the novaexchange you wont even get 500 sats it will dump like a hell and it will reach 1 sat within a minute. and you are also a miner so if i am not wrong you will be the first person to dump it on all price
Ive sold all the ones i mined all ready
So you are also one of the reason to destroy the ICO of this coin, as if i am not wrong you have started the thread of selling your coins in altcoin market place and by this you have sold it.
then why are you now waiting for it to hit the exchange
  I was wondering how you as a Hero Member Misbehaves and post rubbish here until I saw your Red Trust Grin Grow up dude.
To the Suicide guy, You better go do as your coin says. Stop coming here to spread Fud. . I suggest You go save your suicide coin Wink
I'll be waiting for Dev's response about this and hopefully a way out of it that will protect the interest of ICOB investors.
To Investors, I suggest you stay calm and believe only information/post from dev and not some silly troll with red paint over his account.


#Peace

Lol Crunk is not the creator / dev of Suicide Coin, martob is the one who is the dev of suicide coin and he is inviting crunk to join him for free suicide coin.  Straighten your facts dude Smiley
What would you expect for an ICO that gave the source and encourage mining while the ICO is going?  This mess is done by Pioneer88 with his ideas and belief and he actually acknowledge his mistake.
1969  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If the mining profits decrease, will Bitcoin end? on: January 09, 2017, 09:17:01 PM
At the moment the miners for a block are awarded 12.5 BTC. Every 4 years this value will fall by half. For example, let's imagine that the prize value is 1.5 BTC for each block and that BTC's value against the dollar does not increase. In such a case, mining will not be very profitable.

At the same time, miners are also benefiting from the value of the fee. This time the fee values will increase. Then people will have to pay a high fee for bitcoin transfer. The biggest advantage of the Bitcoin system against banking systems was that they could shop without paying commissions to any brokerage house. If this happens, can bitcoin preference be reduced?
I think they are balance the profit and fees for those who are mining bitcoin.. and i think it will not end bitcoin because of the block rewards are decreases every 4 years or block halving.. the price of bitcoin is always depends in the supply and demand so if our block rewards are decrease i am sure that the price could be rise that can increase your profit or it can be still balance because of the price increases.
Its impossible that the price will not increase and mining will not profitable. if the difficulty is increased i think your mine coins daily will be deacreses but the price bitcoin could be increase because bitcoin is in demand and many companies right now are using it. .

I also think that bitcoin mining profitability have the capability to balance itself.  As long as there is demand for bitcoin, mining will always be profitable at the end after all the adjustment of difficulty.  It was just now I realized how great is the design of bitcoin ecosystem.

Bitcoin is good investment as it's price keep going up and bitcoin crashing is very hard


You have quite a contrasting idea in there.  But I think it is not good to invest at this price.  There is a possibility that Bitcoin will visit $850 again and that will be the better time to invest because you can buy Bitcoin cheaper and can get more earnings from it.  I still believe that bitcoin will increase in price even breaking its ATH this 2017.
1971  Economy / Speculation / Re: This pump is not sustainable. on: January 08, 2017, 10:15:36 PM


Well done OP, pointing it out 2 days before the big down trend. Alot of people made fun of the OP  calling him  newb

we will see slow downtrend down to 750 or even 650 . We might see 500 USD again soon


It seems Bitcoin is quite strong at $850 to $930.  It plays along that range for sometime now.  Some people are also accumulating at this phase.  Maybe whales too, or probably a group of people. 

we will see slow downtrend down to 750 or even 650 . We might see 500 USD again soon

500 seems a little low.
I wouldn't be surprised at a dip to the $750-800 range but losing 50% value seems a little drastic.

I agree 500 seems a little low but there is a big possibility for Bitcoin to drop down to $750.  Anyway, i think better to see the next price trend of bitcoin in the next day.
1972  Economy / Speculation / Re: This pull back is great on: January 08, 2017, 09:44:15 PM
This does show that it is not some sort of good rich quick scheme that all in the public did believe at one but now that it is getting global recognition. Many are seeing it in a different light then they once did when it was first introduced in the public eye by way of silk road.

I think it is Smiley People profits from this crash.  It is how you read the situation well.  I hope for the increase in value when it was $1k + but I know with the fast rise of Bitcoin price, it will certainly crash down to where it is now.  People called them correction but I guess this is another whales manipulation to accumulate cheaper coins after cashing out the one they bought in cheaper price way back months ago. Then price will go up again after this accumulation phase is done just like the old day.  They (whales) always rinse and repeat.
1973  Economy / Economics / Re: Holdings of gold vs Holdings of btc on: January 08, 2017, 09:11:04 PM
i think the people interested is changing from time to time. in previous time people were taking interest in gold. but now the interest of people is changing and they are now showing interest in bitcoin because they want to make some extra money.

I agree that people interest change from time to time and people interest varies.  Just an example of two different interests are the posts before me and they even have an argument.  Both have value but with the current run of gold, decreasing in price, and current rally and future of bitcoin which is very optimistic.  I say i wanna hold BTC than gold.  Why?  I can use it to buy things directly.  I can carry it whenever I want, where ever I want but not with gold Smiley
1974  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is CHINA CONTROLLING Bitcoin? on: January 08, 2017, 08:47:09 PM
People here have claimed that Bitcoin is in fact controlled and ruled by China, as mining is centralized by Chinese mining institutions.

Do you think that China is controlling/ruling bitcoin yes or no?

Yes Basically Bitcoin is always addressed as decentralized cryptocurrency but the facts are very different. Till date whatever bitcoins mined out of them 90+% of bitcoin only china stake. Remaining bitcoins are in market.

So its clear that majority of bitcoins is centralized in china.

Yeah that what i mean, china is very influential on bitcoin world. I am sure about that because in china there are sp many user of bitcoin and many big boss in business (mining or etc) which bitcoin related.
it may be right that China has a great contribution in bitcoin because most of the people are from China but still i can say that they are not influencing bitcoin and they are not controlling bitcoin because controlling bitcoin is not so easy.

I think China had great influence om Bitcoin Market Price.  They have the majority of the volume of Bitcoin trades.  Aside from that whenever a negative News happen in China bitcoin price goes down and the opposite when there is good press in that Country.  But I don't think that China is controlling Bitcoin.  Influence is different than controlling.

1975  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Your new year start in gambling! on: January 07, 2017, 11:49:58 PM
I think that this is a bad mindset to enter the new year with. Im my opinion, gambling shouldn't be a big part of someone's life so I wouldn't be in a rush to gamble for a new start in the beginning of a new year. I think that it's only safe to gamble healthy amounts so that it wouldn't make a difference either way.

sadly many peopel made gambling their life Sad.  Oh well some made a great success story but majority some minuscule story and some fun. Other got broke because of gambling.  Even with others seeing gambling as taboo, people will still play on it. 

Healthy amount means big money to me Smiley.  But I get what you mean.  Play in an amount that will not ruin your life or have little to no effect to your activity budgets. 
1976  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Market Panic can drive BTC prices Lower on: January 07, 2017, 11:29:01 PM
There is no reason for panic or panic selling. It's true that many Bitcoin holders have fear that the price would go down more deeply so they will sell which can lower a price for a bit more. But now isn't moment for selling, the head shor be kept cool and wait for this correction of price to be over because soon Bitcoin will be back on the way up.

If one has invested some decent amount of money at let's say 1050 US$ and saw the movement after it bounced at the ATH, I totally understand that this guy was in fear and did panic selling.  If one loses 20% of his investment within 4 hours, I understand anybody selling off any asset in panic.

//alex

Anyone would worry if someone bought at $1100 in a huge volume and then after one day price goes down at around 20%.  It is not normal so the first thing in mind of this person would be selling at the next increase to cut the losses.  But people who are in for the long run really would not be bothered.
1977  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How was your luck in 2016.? on: January 07, 2017, 11:16:39 PM
Not much of a luck in gambling in the year 2016.  Though I only wagered satoshi from faucet, and well all of them lost.  Have some good statistics with altcoin dice in yobit but not much of an impact to improve my life.  I don't know if I will continue to gamble this 2017 or just save them until bitcoin price reach $5k
1978  Economy / Economics / Re: Do You Think Bitcoin Will Replace Dollar Soon? on: January 06, 2017, 11:58:58 PM
Impossible to happen cause the circumstances is it will change global economic processes. US government won't allow that even other countries.
every thing is possible in this world, but it look like difficult in near future, actually USD is one of the most popular and stable fiat currency and most of the countries are also depending it for their economic where bitcoin is a new currency and still it has a lot of time to become so mature to replace bitcoin.

Nope not everything is possible, especially when there is some huge force conflicting it.  Bitcoin may had been popular (to us) but to how many is Bitcoin being popular?  Government will always reject the idea of making bitcoin as its primary currency because of the obvious reason, they do not control it. 
1979  Economy / Economics / Re: Big Crash coming on: January 06, 2017, 11:52:21 PM
Yes we can expect a huge crash very soon because I think we did it too fast, the price has raised to fast so it will fall most likely.
bitcoin is just reduced 100$ from 1160 to 960$ . so the crash and again Increase is just a usual thing. I don't think we'll see any big crash which can be a disaster for bitcoin. bitcoin can get dumped to 700$ but I don't think it will go lower than that.

700 US$ -- interesting definition of "a disaster".  I think the range 750-800 would be currently very healthy.  The pump last weeks was way too fast and a bounce at the ATH was clearly coming.  So I think it'll go down for now.  Maybe 720.  Then bounce back and will stop somewhere b/w 750 and 800.  Then again I'm expecting it to climb -- but hope this time it'll be slowly.

Just my 2 Satoshi.
//alex

I agree that $800 would be a healthy price of bitcoin.  I don't know why people never learn that whenever something had a steep spike, the next thing to happen is crash in price.  People will usually cashout when profit is seen.
1980  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling for a living or a living for Gambling? on: January 04, 2017, 11:09:06 PM
Hi Everyone..!!!

Why are you gambling,  you do it for gambling a living or a living for gambling?
Please share your opinion.
Thanks in advance.

Actually gambling is not only a source of living . But it is also a way of fun and use money to grow in different way .
Overall I was usually made gambling just for fun and sometimes to return my loss in past gambling .
But at new year I left gambling . I hope I remain definite at my promise at the whole year .

Well it would be hard to make gambling a source of living as there are no sure way of earning from it. Living for gambling is just as bad as that means you are already addicted to it. It seems that with the two choices, they're pretty much the same as it means that gambling is a major factor in your life already. So might as well go with the gambling for a living as it at least in a way you're gambling professionally and without much emotions involved compared to when gambling is already your life.

I agree, I get that "a living for gambling" as you are exchanging your means of livelihood just to have a gambling moment and that is a very bad ideal.  It would be better to take the first one , gambling for Living as there are lots of people who actually earn their living thru gambling activities. Nope they are actually have the same meaning.
