21  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Most of the money on: June 15, 2017, 03:48:36 PM
I earned using sportsbooks and then lost the earned money as well as the invested capital, anyway my favorite game is sport betting considering how active and interesting it is to watch a sport game with a small bet on it. The spread is awful though as it ranges from 5-10 cents even in decent sportbooks.

There are scripts available for free or paid, even getting a personally made script might cost less than $1000 if found the right developers, remixing graphics and getting a good UI as well as promotion are the expensive additional aspects. Integrating the coin into the script shouldn't be hard as all crypto's have their own dice sites.

Live tipping is almost impossible unless you are using a process like twitter or telegram with instant updates and perhaps a build-in auto betting feature, but asking people to follow and bet within few seconds at the quoted odds is hard, let alone during the game allot of betting options disappear in seconds.
24  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Trading vs Gambling on: June 15, 2017, 03:21:09 PM
I mainly trade BTC and rarely gamble as in gambling even though the market is unpredictable and gambling, but there is no house edge and the possibility is the same, also skill and analysis of the market does help a little, Gambling on the other hand is completely random and with a house edge.
25  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is better? To gamble or to invest? on: June 15, 2017, 03:05:47 PM
Currently, the best option would be hard to pick, not because investing is a bad idea, investing gives you a +%0.5 house edge (half of the 1%) at least, and end up being the mathematical pick of having the house behind you, BUT investing requires trust in the website -for not directly or indirectly through a fake roller of taking your money-, I don't see a website like the old JustDice now.

Putting restrictions to yourself is a must, and a very important thing regardless of whether you want to play or not, if you do not have the ability to perform that kind of control then you are addicted to gambling most likely,
Trying to avoid everything that has to do with gambling is the best process and thing to do in my opinion.

28  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The future of Bitcoin on: May 29, 2017, 05:13:42 AM
From what we seen till now and what's happening the future of bitcoins seems to be very good and I don't think its going anywhere as the price will be higher in future as we will see many new adopters start using bitcoins. The media coverage and even the funding lobbies are getting interested.
29  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Buy 1 Bitcoin on: May 29, 2017, 05:12:34 AM
I'll aim for that, although buying 1 BTC now became a quite expensive task for many countries like mine, where $2500 is a relatively big sum of money.
30  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What do you like best about bitcoin? on: May 29, 2017, 04:50:36 AM
The decentralized nature, where no one controls the market like a central bank or the like, Also the relative anonymity it offers. The speed and ease of conducting TX's compared to filling lists with CC's... Also the fact that it can be traded easily with and against USD through exchanges and hence possibly generating profit.
31  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why Cash is better than Bitcoin. on: May 29, 2017, 04:40:30 AM
CC and Bank transfers aren't cash, Cash itself is good on personal small life matters done simply, but for multiple payments, large amount, over-seas and in the internet is very inconvenient, it's true there's almost no fraud and no issues like that but the use is very limited too.
BTC and CC/Banks share some advantages and disadvantages, but bitcoin advantages are more and less disadvantages.
32  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How many ways are there to earn bitcoins? on: May 29, 2017, 04:29:20 AM
In my opinion, there are mainly two ways of earning bitcoin, or any other currency, one which is hard work and require skill and has a guaranteed revenue regardless of what it is (even included PTC, GPT, Survey, Online Marketing etc...), the other one is a lazy way and doesn’t require much skill and it is based on luck so your revenue is not guaranteed, and it also requires you to spend money on it, HYIP and gambling fall in this category.
33  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I am pretty confident we are the new wealthy elite, gentlemen. on: May 29, 2017, 04:22:35 AM
Currently speaking, those even holding few dozens of BTC can be considered wealthy considering the value of their money quadrupled since the beginning of 2017, Perhaps few years later we be reaching the highly admired goals of $20,000 or so and bitcoin holders become the new wealthy elite.
34  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: One of many reasons why I love bitcoin on: May 29, 2017, 04:16:33 AM
I love that one too, Even though I spend them regularly it's still amazing to see how much the value grows overtime, but in your case since this is cold storage you probably enjoying it while having the BTC in your balance which is amazing, HODL the BTC is profitable as well.
35  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What type of wallet do you use? on: May 29, 2017, 04:02:05 AM
I use multiple types of wallet, Light CPU "Electrum" Heavy CPU "Core" as well as 2 online wallets btc.com and blockchain.info... Of course I don't keep allot of coins in the online wallets but the convince is higher particularly through mobile and in sending receiving instantly.
36  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is the best source of bitcoin nowadays? on: May 29, 2017, 03:41:14 AM
I'll start cracking down on the options you wrote in the pool, I don't consider most of them investment or money earning but just gambling "and HYIP is gambling with bad odds mostly"

HYIP
This isn't an investment, it's based on paying the old with the new money until the system collapse, that's even the dictionary definition
RevShare   
Almost the same, You get paid by the new investors and collapse can happen, or the website freezes at a point when there are no new investors
Cloud Mining

CloudMining is a HYIP - IMO indiscriminately- , Regular Mining is Okay though
Trading
A decent most reasonable use of BTC and altcoins, can be risky if you are not familiar or follow risky strategies
Gambling
Not an investment
MLM, Tables and Binary

Same category as HYIP
Others (Signature Campaign, Your Skills, etc
Very good option to start collecting BTC, less profitable than trading but relatively cheap/free
37  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What to do with the people who don't like Bitcoin? on: May 29, 2017, 03:24:44 AM
This isn't guillotine do or be done time, The only thing is to try to explain to them about bitcoin, try to remove the hostility towards it and giving them some suggestions on how to use it, and then these people have to make their own choices regarding BTC.
38  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Can ATM cards on Bitcoin be invented to allow direct Bitcoin funds. on: May 29, 2017, 02:54:18 AM
That's possible to make technically with ease, however you would need to make everything new and from scratch as BTC based to make everything from the account in BTC.
if you mean withdrawing USD/etc... from an ATM using a bitcoin debitcard, there are allot of them right now, of course the BTC is converted to USD equivalent.
39  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Your biggest bitcoin regrets? on: May 29, 2017, 02:40:54 AM
I first heard about BTC when BTC price was ~$10 at MTGOX but I did not buy any, and I did not have any till it's $100 and even with those I just made few hundreds profit after selling and with these $1000-$2000 bumps I don't have BTC's to sell...
40  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What happens to all the BTC that people lose the keys to? on: May 29, 2017, 02:31:59 AM
Na-Ah, nothing happens to it and it will remain there for eternity which is fair and good, I don't want my coins recycled when I put them in a cold wallet or the like, and the only influx of new coins to the market is the new mined coins... Regarding how much is not going to be used, it's hard since there are no sufficient surveys etc...
