With 10 BTC you aren't buying a house... unless the house is absolute trash and in a 3rd world country or something, unfortunately.
Maybe in 10 years, you can buy a good house with 10 BTC, not now.

Also, don't forget that you'll have to pay taxes, it would be 10 BTC minus the tax.

Thanks for the link, it seems directbet is always the first in adding most boxing and ufc matches.

I was expecting those odds, I think people has faith in Klitschko winning this time, since a lot of people has said that Fury is way too confident and he is not taking seriously this match. Klitschko is one of the best ever, and this Fury guy is going around being a goofy that can't even show up in proper shape, the guy is fat. We'll see how it does. I think Fury is lossing his mind, unless it's all a big promoting antic by him.

What skills are involved in gambling.. except luck? Im not gonna lie, I have never done extensive research in gambling, but some simple mathematics and just common sense tell me that skill is not really involved in gambling, only luck. You can talk about skill in poker, but what skill is involved in slot machines or dice? none imo.

I think that the system can go on as long as people accept dollar as the world currency. Sure, the devaluation of the dollar has been insane for the past decades, but if you ask people around you, they will not be aware of this devaluation, and everyone still accepts dollar as the king currency. So as long as people accept it... I don't see how the system will collapse. As long as people keep doing their normal life, I don't see riots in the streets about it anytime soon. Maybe once they remove cash, then we will see some serious shit, since a lot of people is surviving by doing undeclared work.

The best that a noob can do is 2). A noob is just not going to understand what is a scam in the crypto world, you need to be around for a long time to start feeling the dynamics in order to take high risks and profit from pump and dump shitcoins and whatnot, which are great to get BTC quick, but the risk is way too high. So just buy and hold until you have been here for at least a year and daily reading and research.

I saw a speech of Andreas Antonopoulos that said that he found Bitcoin to sound too nerdy, because Bit makes you think of geeky stuff, and then coin, which is wrong since Bitcoin actually uses no coins but keys, so he proposed Trustnet or something like that. I think he is terribly wrong, Bitcoin is a way cooler sounding name, actually no one but nerds care that you aren't using coins but keys.

Well, before Bitcoin I never managed to make actual money off the internet, making a blog and a youtube channel and whatnot and I never had any luck to position my stuff and make some extra beer money type of extra income (I wasn't expecting to get rich). Now with BTC I have some extra bucks at the end of the month which is cool.

It's the best thing you can do, to invest 1 BTC and save 9, anything else is way too risky, and 1 BTC of investment in the altcoin world, if you know what you are doing (and of course you have luck) you can turn 1 BTC in 10 BTC in less than a year, with a reasonable amount of risks taken.

The gains in gambling vary as much as your lucky, and taht is indeed, unpredictable, this is why its very hard to guesstimate any amount of gains that you may want to be aiming to make with gambling, which is why its not recommended unless you do it for fun.
In my case, anything from 0.01 to 0.1 BTC per month in gambling gains is reasonable.

Tyson Fury and Wladimir Klitschko will fight for a rematch in july 9, big, big money to be made that night. Who are you betting for? I think Wladimir Klitshcko can deliver a good performance in the rematch, he should have learned from all the mistakes, and is his last chance to not be rendered a lesser fighter than Fury. If Fury wins, then I expect the Fury era to start, and he will pretty much win every single fight after this until he retires, unless he retires way too old.

I hope I can find some Bitcoin betting sites for this one.

Barca was the better team, it was very hard, almost impossible, that Sevilla would win Barca last night, that's why I did a small bet for Barca to win (usually I never bet on this sport, only combat sports) and I did a great job, some nice extra money at the end of the month. Sevilla did a good job y not getting totally goaled tho.

I was going to order a pizza, and that would count as "doing something", since for me it's pretty special since I follow a pretty clean diet (nothing fancy, but I never order stuff) so a pizza would make it for me, and that's all, but I didn't even end up ordering a pizza, so it was a regular day.

Sometimes I need some quick money, not a lot, so I would resort o gambling, honestly it's a mistake to do this, but sometimes your luck is on your side, and can save you a lot of time which you would have need to put to work. Im talking like making 50 extra bucks a month, so that is not that much of a risk to begin with.

And sometimes I just like the game and it's fun to play, like battlecoin.org

If someone that doesn't have a lot of BTC, loses 50 BTC in a single gamble, that means that person is mentally insane and should not be anywhere a casino ever again. That is the worst wealth management I can think off.

Im not gonna lie in here, I was very tempted to buy some DAO tokens because you know.. it's never clear how this type of thing can end up looking like, when there is a certain dead end date. Maybe in the 28th, everyone expects a big ass dump, but an actual pump happens, so everyone that didn't buy in regret not doing so.

Of course, at the end of the day, everyone will go back to BTC, im just desperate to make some extra BTC other than buying monthly, it's too boring and slow, I need to take some risks soon, and shorting big-volume alts are the best thing I can think about when it comes to making extra BTC.

There are so many more examples you could tell of coins that have been hyped to retarded levels. One of the biggest hypes I ever seen in my long career as a cryptocoiner is the Auroracoin pump, now that was crazy. At about 0.12 BTC per coin, it was one of the biggest pumps of all time. I could have made mad money, but back then, I was an idiot since I was new, so I didn't cash out, ended up selling that crap in cryptsy for a couple satoshis.. geez!

Most people that have been involved in HYIP and IPOs and all those fancy looking abbreviation have ended up with a lot of losses. Gambling is just a game so that doesn't count as an investment. I think the best way to go is to trade on the markets, try to make sound decisions, know when to get out and take your profit, and that's how slowly you make a good portfolio. The more you grow the more you can risk and the more you can win.

All those worries about coins getting stolen..this is all still pretty much science fiction, so all those people worrying about getting their coins stolen by some big evil quantum mechanism computer machine are simply out of their mind. No need to panic, specially if you don't go around making your keys public, so if you are that worried, make a new cold wallet that has never seen the internet and store all of your bitcoin there, I guess that would do it for the next 10000 years.


Such a change will require a lot of consensus.. so nothing worry about. If consensus is reached to not delete those bitcoins, the bitcoins will remain, if there is consensus, then they will get removed, but I don't think there will ever be consensus to do this, it's too controversial.

If we have a wave of panic selling idiots, it will still be good news to anyone with an intelligent (aka long term) stance on Bitcoin. It just means we get to buy Bitcoin at a discount.

If everything goes as expected, then it's just relax and hold as your wealth goes up.

Can't lose with team Bitcoin.
