21  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Benefits of gambling? Yes - it exists! on: October 02, 2018, 11:25:08 AM
Gambling has some benefits, but there is a lot of propaganda out there that condemns it just because a few people get addicted to it, but to deny that there are some benefits is a mistake, if you play in a physical casino you'll find friendly people there and you can make new friends, sometimes you can even make business contacts by going to the casino, that is in fact a very common practice in my country where two businessman after making a deal go to the casino to celebrate, also if you like to make sports bets you'll soon understand that you will need an advanced knowledge of mathematics and probabilities to become a winner.
Gambling has definitely a benefit and that is when you win a bet of huge money, quit gambling immediately and never come back to gambling. You will be successful. You took advantage of gambling. Now if you continue you will lose again and it is because of the greed for more and more money. Don’t be greedy and be positive and serious in life.
22  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Have you ever bought a product with Bitcoin and what do you want to buy? on: October 02, 2018, 09:47:22 AM
I think investing in bitcoin and paying with bitcoin is the same. When you hold bitcoin, you always want Bitcoin to be more expensive. At this time, you will participate in the trading of Bitcoin! And use bitcoin to buy more expensive items!
No it is not the same. You will have to buy bitcoin before using it and for that you need investment, while using is different thing. Everybody will have to buy bitcoin if he use it or hold it for future. if you want to buy something and you pay from your wallet it is using, while just buying and holding is not investment. If you do not want to use you can also make profit from your holding.
23  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Beginner's Luck on: October 01, 2018, 10:54:19 AM
I am sure that there is luck for the beginner in a gambling game, but most of them don't have luck in their first time in gambling. so base on your story, you have a big success in your first time, and you can win a lot of money.

for my first time in gambling, I don't have big luck, and although I can win the dice game, it doesn't mean my winning money is big. at least, I can get my money back so I can come back in the next day. and yes, I believe for the beginner's luck in gambling and it could happen to anybody.
I agree, i also believe in beginners luck, I've known some people who wins on their first bet of the game. I think they are just lucky enough to win in their first bet of gambling. I don't win in my 1st bet but there are still a lot of who believes in it because they've experience it. So nothing is wrong believes in beginners luck.
That certainly happened to me in my first ever betting game and the mistake that I did was that I bet a small amount of money and therefore didn't win much at all , the subsequent ones haven't been easy and you sometimes witness teams like Lebanese beating Barcelona which makes no sense at all.
There is nothing else with beginners except luck. They have no gambling experience and skills, so they cannot win the game without luck. But I want to tell that beginners should only play easy and simple games like dice games. It requires no experience and tricks. Only luck will favor you. If you are lucky you will win the game otherwise you will lose the game.
24  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Digital Currency Take Over on: September 29, 2018, 07:57:51 AM
As we can see now everyone/every developed nation is moving towards digital currency. In your opinion how much time is required for digital currency to take over the current/existing market or it is impossible that digitisation will never be successful. If yes what are those factors ? In my opinion those countries which are not accepting digital currency, are doing wrong. They are only thinking about the tax. They are saying that we will not get any tax and digital currencies are fake. Fraud is very easy in digital world (that is true but it also happen in every market). Although when someone is doing business in digital currency then that person is bringing money to country that is beneficial for the country...
In my own opinion, man you’re totally confused. We don’t even need Bitcoin as a currency and we don’t need everything to be DIGITALIZED, cause they are very much okay as they are – physical (paper money) and digital (apps that can be used to send and receive money like PayPal). I think bitcoin or any cryptocurrency can be just a matter of choice, you can only use it when you want to.
Yeah it is a fact that people are turning towards digital currency and we will see in the near future the whole world will use only digital currency all over the world. Digital currency is the need of the day, because we want easy while taking our money with ourselves and using them anywhere in the world. I also want to enjoy the cash less society in the near future.
25  Economy / Speculation / Re: will the price of the bitcoin will reach so high that no one can buy it ? on: September 28, 2018, 09:32:04 AM
now only the price is little high , i think the value of the coin in future days may reach so high so that it would become so expensive to buy it
because now the people in the world started learning about bitcoin may it become popular 

If the trend is going to be like 2017 then yes, there is going to be situations like only whales can offord buying huge bitcoins. I believe all who are earning bitcoin now, will have enough amount to buy and sell bitcoins. The circulation should be high when the price are so high and obviously the trade volume would be high as well. Hope to see such situation. If this situation happens then, other altcoins value would certainly increase as well.
May be the price reach to that level in the future, but I think it will not be good for bitcoin overall because the demand for bitcoin will down which may cause low price again. In my opinion the price should be in limit for everyone, so that average people also able to put their money in bitcoin and make some money in the future. Too high price is not good for bitcoin at all.
26  Economy / Economics / Re: Why Cryptocurrency threatens governments on: September 26, 2018, 12:56:17 PM
I guess you can read it in this forum that some people made a nice point. Basically, people invest on crypto currency from a national currency then once the user exchanges it back to fiat in a much higher value, the government doesn't get any tax from it but losses a great deal of fiat in the process accross alot of users.
Yeah you are right and the other reason is that people take off their money from their country to invest in cryptocurrency. It is a big deficit for a country that their reserves are reducing by this way and it threatens governments the most. Due to decentralization of cryptocurrency government has no benefit of its investment and that’s the reason that many governments in the world has banned cryptocurrency

I think those government who not accepting BTC are in wrong site yet. Has they stop to use BTC from his inhabitants ?? i think no. People are doing their trading and using in different way though it looks illegal to government. In this technology world no body can not control anybody that he want to do. I think it would be better if government accept it and make some rules and regulations and people will easily accept it and will do their business legally. In this way both will be gainer.
In the far future bitcoin will definitely take over the market because it is the future currency and the world is turning towards digital currency. Fiat will be for some time and when bitcoin is acceptable globally then it will take over fiat currency also. When there is bitcoin, we need no other currency paper or fiat. Gradually the use of bitcoin will increase.
28  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading or mining? on: August 11, 2018, 11:49:53 AM
in my opinion it is better for you to do the second because with trading and mining you can get very much profit and you can become very wealthy quickly even you can master the market if you can produce coins from mining with a very large amount.
You cans start trading with a small amount, because there are so many altcoins which are still trading in low price, but if you are interested in mining then you have to invest a lot of money on mining setup and the second is that it is more successful in such places where the cost of electricity is is cheap.
29  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to handle tough times in cryptocurrency? on: August 11, 2018, 11:21:01 AM
Dont Panic Sell or Reinvest with enough reasons to sell your current investment for a good one.. that wont drop or is more stable.. which you never know ofcourse....
Yes we often face tough time in trading and it is important to handle it in a good way, otherwise it can affect our trading too much. To me I that one of the important strategy should be that we should stay calm in the market and should not get panic which be too much helpful in handling the tough time in trading.
30  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Have you been scammed? or almost? on: August 11, 2018, 10:52:20 AM
I almost got scammed on twitter by a fake account. Scammers are setting up fake accounts pretending to be other people/ICO's/Tokens. It's very tricky if you are not paying attention. Make sure you check spelling on all names to be correct. Be careful who you give your info to. Even if it's just your email address. Scammers will not stop scamming so watch out and pay close attention to what you are signing up for. Good Luck everyone and be safe!
I do become a victim of scam before, but most of them are from bounty campaigns, not literally scammed by doing transactions with other people, but I also experienced that before.
To me I think that I never become scammed in trading or even from a bounty, although I still not participated in bounty campaign, but I am doing crypto trading for a long time but I think that it is my good fortune that I still no scammed in trading crypto currencies.
31  Economy / Economics / Re: Government regulation on cryptocurrency, GOOD or BAD? on: August 11, 2018, 09:52:25 AM
I think government regulations is good for cryptocurrency. It only implies that if there is regulations, there is recognition on the part of the government.

In that sense, crypto enthusiasts feel more secured and confident with their investment.
I think it depends on what rules the government applies to cryptocurrency. if the regulation is in the form of a ban it will certainly have a negative impact on the crypto market. but if the rules and regulations are made so that both get the same benefits. certainly will have a good influence on the development of bitcoin
I believe they'll (the governments) speard some false news in public so people stop working on bitcoin never listen of them believe in your self and hold coins.
32  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Be calm when the market falls on: August 04, 2018, 11:01:48 AM
One strategy that works best in times of fall in the market is to remain calm, and not allow yourself to be blown by panic. Just hold the tokens with large caps and even if possible, buy more tokens and hold. For some coins like Bitcoin and Ethereum, it is always certain that whenever there is a fall, there is definitely going to be a rise.

What will you do when the market falls?

While that is the correct strategy many people are unable to perform it, they know that they should do it but when they are faced with the possibility of putting more money at risk and lose even more money in the short term most people decide they do not want to do it and they prefer to sell despite the fact they know that is a losing move and that means they will never succeed in the market.

Those people who always do this kind of panic selling will never be succeed on crypto, it is normal to do wrong move when you are new in trading but do it always will not help, in fact that can be lose all money. So think before you sell.
Actually they are inexperience and very new in trading, they do not have enough knowledge about bitcoin and its nature, therefore when bitcoin price start decreasing they get panic and start selling which increase the pressure in market and create problems even for the experienced investors.
33  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Holds Above $6k on: August 04, 2018, 10:33:15 AM
This is a very controversial issue. I do not think that this news and how many others are manipulation. Most likely it's easier for people to think that this is manipulation, so as not to look for a real reason.
In fact the new and inexperienced investors are creating problems. They do not study the market and reach to the core but get panic even after spreading false news about the bitcoin and start selling which in turn make the situation more worst and the price continue to crash. I think that they should not give preference to such new and should try to avoid such news.
34  Economy / Economics / Re: Why do older people like investing in Gold/Silver? on: August 04, 2018, 09:33:07 AM
Old people like investing in gold/silver because it is fully safe. Bitcoin's values keep on falling or rising and there is quite a big risk in investing in bitcoin. Old people do not prefer to take risk so they don't invest anywhere else and prefer investment in gold/silver the most due to full security and no risks.
But to me I think that they do not have enough knowledge about bitcoin and once they will learn and know about the instant profit of crypto currencies, I do not think that they will then give any preference to gold or silver. I think that they will put all their money in crypto trading which is the most instant way of making money.
35  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you still believe in bounties and Cryptocurrency? on: August 04, 2018, 09:04:43 AM
Of course, bounty is an easy job to do anywhere. it is a crypto field for many people.
the future of crypto is also very good seen from the interests of investors who continue to increase each time. with the stability that crypto might be trustworthy to everyone.
No doubt that it is an easy job to do investment in cryptos but still it is not so easy to get profit from ICOs. I think that there is too much risk involve to do investment in ICO, we always have the chances to lose our money if the ICOs does not succeeded. Therefore I do not think that investment in ICOs is too much easy.
36  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Should I invest to Ripple? on: August 04, 2018, 08:06:53 AM
Many people today are negative and wary of the Ripple project, people today are not trying to invest in Ripple, because the price for it today is very high in relation to the price that should generally be.
We can never guarantee about the market or even a specific currency that either its price will increase or decrease in future. We only work on speculation and hope. I think that ripple is still good for investment but it depend on your experience that how can you deal it and get profit from it. 
37  Economy / Economics / Re: HOW BITCOIN BENEFITS THE ECONOMY? on: August 04, 2018, 07:34:10 AM
Bitcoin has proven already that it will help those people who are jobless ,and want to join bitcoin for a living ,so if this people have earning so they can sustain the everyday financies ,so this peopke can have great effect to the economy,or can either help an econony of their country.
This has been an ongoing debate for a long time and everyone is looking to find out how bitcoin can benefit the economy. At an individual level every knows that by using bitcoins once can avoid the taxes and transfer fee and other banking charges.
38  Economy / Economics / Re: Is NOW the best time to buy or enter in bitcoin? on: August 04, 2018, 07:00:59 AM
I think buying now is also good but cannot be considered a" best time" as the price is still above $8k.
Again, it depends if you are buying for short or long term hold.

Follow the charts and you will know that the bitcoin price is too much volatile and we can again see 6000$ btc price. I think you should wait for few days and see the trends and then decide to enter into bitcoins.
39  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Lets be careful on what we are investing on: August 04, 2018, 06:31:10 AM
there are a lot of crypto currencies which also make it more difficult to choose the right place for your investment. When investing in an ICO, you need to make sure that the organizers are well known and have the knowledge to finish the project as planned, because ICO projects tend to fail and most of them won't even complete what they promised. you need to make sure that the market cap is not too  big, because then you won't have enough space to make the profit and it won't worth the risk.

You have good point mate. You have to take into account the team behind the project. Even the bounty campaign manager has a big role whether the ICO will be successful or not. As what we have observed in the forum, those campaigns manage by reputable managers most likely become successful because they can have many participants in the campaign; thus, more exposure of the ICO so there is a possibility of getting more investors and the success of an ICO whereas those manage by newbies rarely become successful.

Yes this happen to me when I see an ICO promising 1$ at the end of the project I purchased after the campaign instead of the coin to be increasing it just decreasing. You have to be very careful before investing in any ico

It happened to most ICOs wherein it's below ICO price when listed in exchanges because the holders sell their coins and then maybe the project is not that attractive that's why there are no willing buyers. Unless there is a market maker then the coin wouldn't be able to recover. You may wait for sometime to even break-even. This is the reason why some would just wait for the coin getting listed in exchanges before buying it.
I know we should should be careful but no one has a time for it we need fast money that's why people never care about it and put there all money in invest and got scammed.
40  Economy / Economics / Re: Cryptocurrency Market Could Hit $1 Trillion This Year on: August 04, 2018, 05:46:08 AM
Not sure whether it will happen this year or not, the price has gone down so much for the past a few months. I think it may take some more time for the market to recover and people to regain faith in the cryptomarket world. Let's be patient and see how it goes.
Crypto currencies can be increase up to 100$ or maximum 150$ but the 1 trillions is just like a joke for every one Crypto currencies aren't famous yet.
