Level 0 and Level 1

Gambling isnt the only thing that do entertain me when im in boredom.There are lots of activities that i can choose from to enjoy myself without involving any money.
Also i do play on my vacant time and using up my excess money to play without compromising responsibilities in real life. Needs first before anything else because
i dont like to mess up life or making my own problems that will come out late on if i do prioritize gambling.

I'm also at this level so most probably this thing isn't not my main problem. The main problem that I'm facing here is that gambling is really not meant for me. I can't see that I'm getting a profit out of it because there's no improvement, although I managed those losses but I still can't win and I'm also not losing. Maybe I should focus on trading and gambling maybe should not be my priority. I will just spend my money to those valuable thing rather than this gambling games. I prefer playing true online games and it is much better.
2123  Economy / Economics / Re: World economy would benefit if all crypto work together on: February 23, 2020, 01:21:49 PM
Well, some projects sometimes introduce their partnership from other crypto projects to convince investors that their projects are really high quality. I think this exploration will improve the world economy. it's just that, there will be side effects from this, namely, some altcoins will fall due to competition, and I think only projects that already have named will do the collaboration. small projects will not be able to develop, and I think there are many other side effects that can arise.
collaboration with large successful projects before can indeed attract investors to succeed their projects, so that many people will believe because they have established partnerships with large projects, so this can ensure that the project is truly quality, with so many relationships the projects can develop together

All crypto should work as one so that people who uses each kind of coins will help each other grow and promote bitcoin as soon as they work. Collaboration of coins will make people invest more when they know that their are someone who will support them in making investment in crypto. Most of the people are just not that knowledgeable about the coins so those professional user of coins like BTC, ETH, XRP and etc., should enlighten those people so that they know what will they do to use crypto and what can they do to the market. They will surely make a big impact to the World economy as they start using some platform in cryptocurrency.
2124  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How to Increase Bitcoin adoption on: February 23, 2020, 11:14:48 AM
There is no need to do anything new about it. I'm not saying that everything will happen by itself. Here's the situation. Mobile phones are becoming widespread and the internet is becoming widespread. Electronic payment systems are also becoming widespread. But there is something in stark contrast to these developments. We are paying more people the intermediary fee. That's why cryptocurruency will spread!

I think the advertisement for cryptocurrency and bitcoin is available everywhere. I see that advertisement when I browse on the internet. Besides that, I think many people who involved in the crypto world still spread the news in many places, including in social media, because social media now become very popular. We can see many advertisements for crypto or one website that offers about investing in crypto. That attracts many people to visit on that site. We need to keep spreading the crypto using many ways, and if we can spread the news in real life, I think that can help people to know about crypto and bitcoin.

It is possible most especially nowadays, food advertisements are developing and it is way more better if they also promote using bitcoin in their products. Although people are not yet adopted to bitcoin, we just need to start a movement just like that. If you're a real bitcoin fan and you're motive is not to abused crypto, but to use a digital currency that is easy to use in transaction, then you should start helping the crypto community. Let's wish for a widely mass adoption so that some other people will also know the benefits of using crypto in their daily lives.

2126  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Integrating cryptocurrency in business on: February 21, 2020, 06:58:14 PM
I still remember the days where I was one of the people who were hoping that Bitcoin will make it. But it did.

Bitcoin really is one of the best platforms I've ever encountered to the point that it changed my perspectives/paradigm economically. Globalization really is a good thing. It is the best thing that happened in the world today. But I don't see any possibilities for the small to medium enterprises to integrate cryptocurrency.

The cryptocurrency really is a one year study. You can't jump into it without knowing the pros and cons. And as of now, I'm not that happy with what is happening with cryptocurrencies and the government regulations against it. Probably we need to wait for the cryptocurrency to become more matured (legalization) before we can tell it.

I never expected Bitcoin to be quite of established here in my country. It went even too far in here like I could buy almost everything with it provided by an app that was made for our country locally. It was quite unexpected also that business with it is allowed, while I don't hear anything about our government explicitly saying the legalizing of cryptos although they advised to be cautious in investing in here.

Study could go even further than that. I believe it would be a field also in the future as a business course just like how some college/university offer blockchain degree, I am not sure what country has that university that offers that degree.

Some people are still suffering because not all government understands how cryptocurrency works. They don't know the importance and advantages of crypto to their economy that's why the opportunity of them having improvement in it is wasted.

But if blockchain will be a degree or course/program, will the cryptocurrency will be permanent? What if blockchain become phased out and disappear? Will the degree ever become useful in other courses or work? Besides blockchain program, what is the other course related to that? Implementing crypto in universities need a wide and variety of study to prevent failure of it because people who will pursue it will probably lose their work someday. Let's hope that more country will adopt the cryptocurrency as time goes by, most especially to a business.
2127  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Why not decentralized exchange..? on: February 20, 2020, 08:26:56 AM
I think it is about control in my view. Many investors don't like to be so isolated from their investment that they won't have some control. Centralized exchanges also have achieved volume because of the investors already there so they keep growing.

Because that's the only way the governmeny benefits our cryptocurrency. They can't get taxes from that that's why they are making fees higher in the exchange during transactions and we have nothing to do about it. Centralized exchanges are the only way they think of because they know that cryptocurrency will really improve the economy of a country. Most especially those bitcoin users, the fees are high so they tend to just store it and use it for a larger transactions. Decentralized exchange is someway possible because there are countries that really adopted cryptocurrency. There's something wrong with the government who really want to focus the benefits of crypto to them, still people are unable to utilize or manipulate cryptocurrency freely.
2128  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is getting more adopted in my Country on: February 20, 2020, 05:45:38 AM
That is one downside of an Bitcoin ATM, the fees are very high, I checked https://coinatmradar.com/countries/ and it seems that it is not listed yet, so this is fairly new in Nigeria. We have two in my country, we just have one as well this year and pretty much bitcoin is gaining ground here but I'm not sure if people are really using this ATM's around.

That's how the government get their profit, it is by increasing the transactions fees. They know that the cryptocurrency will make their economy grow due to a large impact of it to the people. Government knows that the mass adoption in bitcoin is constantly increasing and maybe soon, more country will do that.

More country will allow their society to use cryptocurrency but they will make the transaction fees very high. In our country, it is hard to access bitcoin wallets because it is not completely allowed by the government. Most especially thay they are not that knowledgeable about the impact of cryptocurrency in our economy.

People are always wondering how will it become implemented in our society to use crypto freely.
2129  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Addiction Can Seriously Diminish The Quality Of Your Life. on: February 19, 2020, 05:19:01 PM

Not sure why you felt the need to bump a four year old thread in order to post this.

If your husband had an issue, then it's not his fault you guys had no money to buy food, he should never have been allowed to access your money in the first place.

What's the name of the free rehab clinic though? A huge people need that service around here.
I shared my story in the hope someone will understand it is realluy possible to overcome addiction.
Speaking about the name of the clinic, I edited my post and added a link there.

A wise man will always make his money valuable and prioritize it to a more necessary things and not in gambling.

It is true that when you are already addicted, it is hard to escape by only yourself. You really need to seek help from other people that will really help you to overcome addiction in gambling. But at first, before being addicted to it, you should hinder yourself to reach that point so that you will have less problems in gambling. Like a moderate gambler, they are not that problematic and greedy in gambling because they know their limitations so that they will not experience being addicted in gambling. A wise man will always prioritize himself before he can influence other people.
2130  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Curious About Bitcoin. on: February 19, 2020, 04:00:16 PM
I'm surprised "Bitcoin price USD" is higher than "bitcoin usd" or "usd bitcoin", that's what I search for when I don't have my price monitor open. But that's probably just me I think
Where did you see that? And why think it's important? I don't understand what you mean. The bad news here is people are mostly looking for the price of Bitcoin on Google and not for what it is. It means people who are interested in Bitcoin as for now already possess Bitcoins, and the amount of newcomers is low. Undecided We don't seem to be in a massive adoption period.

Little did they know that there's something more that bitcoin can do and not only its price is making users excited.

Bitcoin really is the best cryptocurrency and the most used in any part of the world. The mass adoption is literally increasing and the people who searched for it is also increasing, it means that people are gaining some ideas and willing to invest their money if they find out that bitcoin can really changed the way they transact with people. Some people who seek for bitcoin comes from a professional bitcoin holder that enlighten their minds about the blockchain technology. They will learn more when they start engaging with bitcoin most especially when they started in a good season of bitcoin.
2131  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Gaming Industry and Cryptocurrency! on: February 18, 2020, 02:00:26 PM
Cryptocurrencies and the GAMBLING industry can fit very well,but I'm not so sure about cryptocurrencies and the gaming industry.More than 10 years since the creation of Bitcoin and several years after most big altcoins were created,I can't see a game using cryptocurrencies to buy and sell virtual game items to be really popular and successful.Congratulations about the Minecraft server that uses BTC and let's hope that the Fortninte clone game will launch successfully,but those aren't original concepts.Copying Minecraft and Fortnite isn't enough.We have to come up with a unique crypto game concept that can't be exploited,with a virtual game item marketplace that can't get manipulated.
I found the post by Asuspawer09 very informative. I agree with you that gambling and cryptos go together very well, but I don't think that's enough. Gambling has a big problem: it's stigmatized in society. While gamers can also suffer from addiction and it's a big deal, people see gambling more dangerous and unworthy. This means that while it's good for adoption, it might not be that good for reputation. Gaming, on the other hand, is neutral, because while some suggest that it's harmful, others say the opposite. Cloning games is not very good, but I believe that gaming and cryptos can go really well in the future because people often buy stuff in games, and cryptos are indeed convenient for that.

I don't agree with that, but in some other way it still depends.

It depends on the person, some people uses cryptocurrency to be used in game is for their own enjoyment so not all gamers who tend to pay with cryptocurrency are addicted. For your information, using real money in the game is already adoption since it enters gaming platforms. As time goes by, the number of gamers are continuously multiplying and most of it are men. If men really want to excel at gaming, they will really try to do anything and spend a lot of money, that's when being addicted came in. But for me, I'd rather play games that is free-to-play and just spend my bitcoin cryptocurrency in a more important thing in everyday lives just like a practical person.

But you have nothing to do with that because that is their money. They will spend their money on anything they want so you just need to give them advice and let them know the advantages and disadvantages of using cryptocurrency or spending money to a game. Gaming is just for entertainment, everyone knows that but if you have a spare amount of money and you are stable about your state, then you have it. It is just that the consequence of being addicted in spending money in gaming is really a problem because people really don't know how to prevent being addicted.
2132  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: A good book to learn how to trade. on: February 14, 2020, 04:11:54 PM
Book is good to study to have a background knowledge of trading but at the same time, we should bear in mind that we need a practical knowledge to be able to take down everything we read from the book and trying them out. This will help us to restrategize if it not working.


If you read books, you will only gain knowledge and not experience. It is very hard to trade when you don't know what is really happening in the market and during transactions.

Strategy is hard to perform when you only read books, because in books, it only states the type of strategies and not the consequences and advantages of it. Planning and performing strategy is always based on your technical analysis about the movement in the market. In order for you to become an effective trader, you should always apply and perform the basics that you have read. You also need to practice the strategies, in order for you to know the good and bad effects of it. It is not bad to make mistakes, but if you make the same mistakes again then you have a problem with the way you trade.

Not only books, it is also essential to seek some advice and tips to some professional traders. They are the one who are knowledgeable and effective when it comes to trading. Professional traders are still experiencing some bad and fail transactions but they are dominant when they will make a solution for it. They can make strategies based on the circumstances so they can easily manipulate the market with the way they want. But if the market is really down and the prices of the coins are not cooperating then it will have a hard time to make a solution for that. They are still vulnerable with the mistakes and no one is exempted with that. In cryptocurrency, practice don't make things perfect, but it lessen the risk of losing the money in trading.

Physical cash has always been treated as literally dirty. It passes from one person to another for several years. It does not undergo any kind of washing or disinfection. It falls to the ground, it is being handed over by a fish vendor, it is being crumpled down by a public transportation driver, and so on. As a child, I was always advised to wash hands after holding money. It really helps if transactions do not anymore require physical cash.

But, of course, human interaction is not limited to commerce. We are always in the company of other people. Especially in China where the population is thick, it cannot be avoided not to interact with people on a daily basis. Facing them, talking to them, touching them, these are all normal in their daily activities.

We all know paper currency aren't washable so don't expect that it will be clean and safe to transfer from one person to another. There is a solution for that and that's by using disinfection after doing some transactions with real money. It went to a thousand hands or people so the virus or bacteria there are combined for how many years so it is not only Corona Virus that can get you sick. Personal hygiene is important anytime and anywhere you go so always bring hand sanitizer. That's the importance of digital currency, you can have transaction without literally having exchange with fiat currency. That's why most of the country are safe while using cryptocurrency and they don't experience and problem or conflict having transaction.

2136  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What would make you stop gambling? on: February 09, 2020, 04:30:39 AM
- making enough or a lot of money.
I doubt if this can make someone stop gambling. You know people always greedy, it is the fact, so don't deny it. When they can gain money from gambling, they will focus on it as it is worth to do. Moreover, if they can gain big money, I am pretty sure that they will gamble more often.

In my opinion, someone can stop gambling when they are aware that it is not all things to do in their life. They have another thing to do as a priority. For example:
- Someone prefers to focus on their career in real life.
- Someone needs more time to socialize and gather with family.
- Someone feels that he is going to be addicted more if he doesn't stop it.   

I don't think so, because when you come to the point that you have so much money that it will not valuable to you if you lose them, you'll don't care about it. But in some points, instead of losing your spare money to gambling, you must donate it into a charity because they really need some financial assistant. Help our society and stop gambling, it will surely help yourself to not get addicted and minimize wasting your money. Money isn't easy to earn so let other people benefit it in a good way.

Minimize the time you spend in gambling and prioritize some other things that will really make you enjoy life and your money. Spend your money on your family, friends, business so that your money will not become useless. Gambling is not a source of income but it can relieve your stress, and there are more things that can be an alternative for you to become stress-free.
2137  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Transactions on Smartwatches? on: February 08, 2020, 02:16:17 PM
What are your thoughts? Is something like this practical/secure? Or is it better to continue using smartphones for Bitcoin transactions? Huh

I never met a person in my life that owns a smartwatch. The market share of smartwatches compared to smartphones and tablets must be minuscule. And people who own a smatwatch most likely own a smartphone too, so it shouldn't be a problem for them to have a Bitcoin wallet with them. I never used a smartwatch, but I'm pretty sure it's more convenient to do Bitcoin transactions from a bigger screen of a smartphone.

So, to answer your question, it doesn't seem to be very practical or relevant to the userbase, and as others pointed out, it's likely insecure.

What's the use of the smartphone if you will adapt it in a smartwatch? That's useless, although smartwatches are more handy. But if you have a smartphone, you don't really need to buy a gadget that also have features in a smartphone, because that's a waste of money. But if you don't want to be hassle when you go out with your friends, it is preferable to use smartwatch. But being practical bitcoin holder, smartphones are more secured and safe when having transactions in bitcoin. Also the screen of smartwatch are most likely small and it is hard to read, in transactions, to ensure things before sending it into a wallet address is very necessary, so it is risky to use smartwatches. 
2138  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: LEC, league of legends betting and predictions on: February 07, 2020, 11:19:11 AM
I chose two matches and two strong favourites

G2 Esports vs. Rogue Esports Club


Crème de la crème. At the very end of the day we have a match between the European hegemon G2 Esports and the revelation of recent months, the Rogue Esports Club. A fight of young blood on the old explorers One thing is certain - there will be too much emotion. An absolute must-have position.

My bet: G2 Esports

G2 esports are very good in a crucial game and when they got the momentum they can't dominate their opponent in the tournament. Caps can literally carry them to win their bracket, the Rogues Esports Club's roster is new to me and I can't predict their plays but I already watched their past games against G2 Esports in LEC Summer 2019 and they are dominated I think that they're having a hard time competing against the runner up in Season 9. This time I think that G2 Esports will still have this one, because RGE's play isn't enough to become a champion in this tournament.

I chose two matches and two strong favourites

Fnatic vs. Excel Esports


After Oskar "Selfmade" Boderk's successful performance in the second week of LEC, Polish fans have been raising hopes for him. Fnatic's Forester is facing an easy challenge in theory, but the charges of the British organization managed to prove that the staff revolution was not in vain and in 2020 they cannot be seen as the proverbial "boys to beat". Joey "YoungBuck" Steltenpool, who at the end of last year turned Fnatic into Excel, will have much to prove.
 
My bet: Fnatic

In this match up, I believe that Fnatic got this but we can't predict this time because in League of Legends, if you make a certain mistake then it is the end for you team. That was what happened in the SKT in season 7, they are choked because Samsung Galaxy really get the momentum. This time, I see that Fnatic is fired up against the Excel Esports because they are the runner up in season 8 and they want to have some vengeance against any other team. But we can't say, it still depends on the shot caller of each of the team.

2140  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Lomachenko vs. Teofimo Lopez Lightweight Unification fight on: February 06, 2020, 03:01:58 PM
I'll go with Lopez, he is not just hunger, he is really strong and can dominate who ever his opponent is. He already proved something for us and no one can ever deny that because of his record of that is undefeated. He had the IBF lightweight title and I think that he can defend that for about 6 times against his opponents because there is no other lightweight division fighter that can oust him from being a title holder.

Are you sure that there is no other lightweight that can defeat Lopez? I''ll laughed on you if Lopez will defeated by Lomachenko. It doesn't mean that Lopez will surely win because of the age gap, but it is about who is experienced and have a lot of opponent defeated. Although this isn't really happening yet, maybe he will end his undefeated career if he loses to Lomachenko.

 He is relentless and can dominate his opponent with his punches, although it is very hard to determine if who's the underdog here. Maybe some people are caring about the odds but what can we do? We just need to wait for the official announcement between this fight.

In some cases, although he was defeated in a summer olympics, that doesn't matter when it comes to a real boxing match. As you can see in his highlights, his punches are quick and strong for his body composition and I can see that Lomachenko will be knocked out by Lopez. But it depends, Lomachenko is also a good fighter but he's lucky if he can stay until round 12.

His defeat in Summer Olympics proved that he can't be always strong, he has also some weaknesses that's why Lomachenko will look for it so that Lopez will lose again. It is about the preparation of the fighters and coaches, let's see what Lopez can bring to the boxing ring. I think Lopez will be the one who's getting knocked out by Lomachenko at round 5 - round 10. The stamina is also a factor here, and I know that as an experienced professional boxer, Lomachenko will do something about that.
