Advertise, promote your site on various websites. Create a referral system.
22  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What keeps you coming back??? on: January 16, 2018, 11:34:07 PM
For me the profit from gambling and also the fun while gambling is the reason why I keep on coming back,
I just feel excited and happy while I am gambling if don't have a problem with money I think I could be addicted to it I mean I would play everyday that's for sure.

You would play every day? Then the word "Back" does not suit you. You're not worth the word coming back because if you play every day you never go from gambling, gambling is already part of you. But I agree, profit and pleasure from gambling is the reason that makes people gamble again.

There is not profit in gambling. Profit means you walk away with more money than you started with, but gambling is a net-loss activity thus making profit isn't possible at the end of the day.

Sure, you might "profit" one or two days but then you'll go on a losing streak, and lose all your "profit" and more. That is the nature of gambling and why it should only be a recreational activity.

Investing is certainly a better option than gambling in the long run. You are going to get better returns over time even if they are less than you can get with gambling in a short time. Gambling isn't an option to make a living over investing.
24  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How many Bitcoins would it take for you to Quit Gambling Forever? on: January 16, 2018, 11:03:23 PM
1 bitcoin would be enough if the price of bitcoin is already $1,000,000 or $500,000. That will be enough for me to move to another life and find another hobby or maybe I can start with that amount having some vacations first and then for business too.

It would not happen, why are you so optimistic? I do not think that the price of each bitcoin will be over one million dollars or just a half a million dollars.

Please, try to be more realistic.

And no, even if i have 100 bitcoins o wouldn't quit gambling, because i just gamble for fun, and with some friends, i am not an addict dumbass who is always betting all it's money.


You don't think Bitcoin will be worth $500,000 someday? Well it used to be worth nothing and now one is worth over $10,000. I'm pretty sure that is solid proof that it has potential to go above $500,000.

Actually, BTC is deflationary by nature. That means the price will always go up as people lose their coins inevitably.
25  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Ideas about odds from 5 to over 20 on: January 16, 2018, 10:46:59 PM
You should put more info here. Do you really think anyone is going to reply to you just posting your email here and a few words about your service?

You need to show us some references of your past work and how you help others make money.

Anyways, good luck but you really need to add more info to your post. Smiley
26  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The best crypto lotteries? on: January 16, 2018, 10:40:50 PM
freebitcoin is my favorite. As far as I know it's the biggest one and some guy told me he won a Bitcoin from that site. So yeah there's that and I'm sire there are others.

Although if you think about it your odds of winning are always the same so there's no difference in having a favorite because if you win at another lottery, it will become your favorite. lol
27  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambler's mindset! on: January 16, 2018, 10:37:19 PM
All the addicts to gambling are always following their instincts, and that is the real reason of why they are always losing money like if there wasn't a limited amount of money.

A few weeks ago i went to a casino, and there was a guy creating bets of one thousand dollars like if he was a rich guy..

And a few days later, i saw him on a coffee, and he was asking for money because he didn't had enough money to keep living.

I am tired of always seeing the same "characters" everytime that you go to a casino


Man that's sad. I can't imagine just throwing away thousands of dollars. Even if he won, that money would only hurt him because it would keep him believing that gambling is a sound way to earn a living. Reality check - it's not. It's entertainment and only that. And when you think you can just bet big and all your problems will go away, that's when you end up like that guy.
28  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and Relationships! on: January 16, 2018, 10:34:03 PM
Here in my county gambling offices are all in a hiding places where no body will get to see the participants let alone making it known  to the families and friends that you are in into gambling.

But why is it happening? Gambling is not a bad deal. I like gambling with friends, and you can meet a lot of people if you are a gambler.

But i do not like those addicts who are always risking all their money.

And their families shouldn't look at them like if they are bad people, for me, it is fine.

Anyway, i am always trying to be far away from those addicts.


Because people get addicted to it. That's why it's a big deal for governments to ban it. And also if people deposit their money into online gambling then the money goes into other countries and out of their country which is bad for them, because they want to keep money inside their borders not give it away.
29  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think you are a gambling expert? on: January 16, 2018, 10:27:13 PM
I actually do consider myself a gambling expert. The reason for this is I always base everything on statistics. Statistics are everything when it comes to gambling. If you just bet blindly the chances of you winning are slim to none. You might win in the short term, but in the long term you're bound to lose because you make uneducated bets.
30  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UFC 220: Miocic vs Ngannou Info and Prediction Thread on: January 16, 2018, 09:41:49 PM
This is going to be a very interesting fight. UFC keeps promoting Miocic as one of the best heavyweights ever. If he defends his belt I think he'll have the most title defenses in Heavyweight history at like 3, so that sums up how "dominant" he is. Not taking anything away from him. It's just that there hasn't ever been a massively dominant heavyweight in UFC history yet whereas there has been in every other division. Ngannou is the first contender in a long time to be that guy.
31  Economy / Economics / Re: Steam is no longer supporting Bitcoin due to high fees on: January 16, 2018, 05:47:56 PM
High fees are clearly hurting Bitcoin but we just have to wait for Lightning Network.

The transactions would be instant and faster than Litecoin.

LN is truly a revolutionary concept. Hope it comes out as fast as possible.
32  Economy / Economics / Re: How would Mt.Gox Bitcoins enter the market? on: January 16, 2018, 05:35:56 PM
Mt.Gox was an epic embarrassment and set back bitcoin for a decade.

They should be give no second chances!

The brand itself is extremely toxic and anyone who knows anything about Mt Gox only associates it with the disaster it inflicted upon us.

In short To heck with Mt. Gox
33  Economy / Economics / Re: We can now make gold! on: January 16, 2018, 05:31:28 PM
I though you were talking about Bitcoin Gold at first and was confused.

Making gold like that changes nothing. Bitcoin's plus point is it can be transported across 1000's of miles easily.
Gold will never do that.

Also gold is not distributed and its value is very stable which can be good or bad.
34  Economy / Economics / Re: are you ? on: January 16, 2018, 03:54:56 PM
if your bitcoin has disapperead then you need to talk to the wallet company.

It is possible someone has hacked you or maybe the wallet company has stolen your coin.

Or maybe you sent it to someone and forgot. Tokens cannot vanish in thin air. Find out where your coins have gone.
35  Economy / Economics / Re: France declares war on the cryptocurrencies on: January 16, 2018, 03:52:43 PM
This is no war on cryptocurrencies.

France did not declare such a war.

This is no different from any other countries handling of cryptocurrencies.

Even in the USA, you cannot use cryptocurrencies to avoid taxes or finance terrorism. Which is what france said they want to tackle.

Almost every country would not want you to avoid taxes or finance terrorism.
36  Economy / Economics / Re: Is deflation good for a coin? on: January 16, 2018, 03:49:51 PM
Deflation is good because it increases demand of the coin. People will always want to own Bitcoin.

But yes it can be bad as other users have mentioned because people don't want to spend the coins. And specially today with the high fees it means most people want to own bitcoins but not spend them.

Even with deflation we see the price drops many times.
37  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you think that bitcoin can reduce corruption? on: January 16, 2018, 03:44:46 PM
lol no. Bitcoin cannot reduce corruption at all. How will bitcoin reduce corruption? It is anonymous except the adderesses and it is not easy to link a person to a bitcoin address.

People can easily launder money through bitcoin which means it will increase corruption not reduce it! Althought most people in government right now are not smart enough to use bitcoin to launder money. But it is not that difficult to figure out how to do it.
38  Economy / Economics / Re: Will there ever be a Bitcoin Bank on: January 16, 2018, 03:41:57 PM
What purpose will a Bitcoin bank serve? Why would anyone use a Bitcoin bank?
Other banks are used by people to store money. They store money safely and allow easy transactions like wire transfer, cheques etc. They also provide loans for various purposes.
Bitcoin already stores money in wallets and you can do transactions between wallets just like a bank.

In other words a bitcoin wallet is already a bank.
39  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin reduces unemployment on: January 16, 2018, 03:37:28 PM
Bitcoin has almost no effect at all on employment or unemployment! Maybe it will create jobs by making online payments easier but it can also eliminate jobs by reducing the need of Western Union and other banks!

It is a currency. Mining can said to be creating some jobs but this is all negligible. I don't think Bitcoin has had or will have any major impact on creation of jobs, increasing or decreasing unemployment.
40  Economy / Economics / Re: how can the beggars access Bitcoin? on: January 16, 2018, 03:30:37 PM
They need a smartphone at least to transact, send and recieve Bitcoin.

Yes a paper wallet can be used but you would still need a computer at some point to do transactions. Bitcoin ATMs are not very common and even if they were then you would need to give prepaid cards to the beggar.

At the end the beggar will convert the bitcoin to cash so why not just give cash?
