Most of the people do not learn from their mistakes in gambling and all they know is to try their luck again and again wishing to win back whatever they have lost. I think that if a person does really learn from his mistakes then the chances to face real loss are very rare.

Addiction is the only thing that stops you to refrain from this activity and try some other way of earning. I myself quit gambling few years back just to avoid losing all the money I had saved what many years and earned with a lot of effort for mere a useless thing. Now I have started my own business and I am really contented with what I am earning.

Obviously we all know that this is not the right time to buy Bitcoin because the price has actually risen it to a very high level. Now it is the time to hold the Bitcoin in your wallet  and do not spend them as it is been expected to increase more and more in the next year.

The only time that is appropriate to buy Bitcoin is obviously when the prices are low. Anyone who is into this field is quite aware of a simple strategy that the best time to buy is in the prices at low and obviously the preferable one to sell is the prices are quite high.

Being focused is honestly important as well which can always help even with your analytical skills. Lots of things change on a spot, there are some activities that you can always look out for which can help you to make certain decisions. Analysis come into play when making some predictions but the market in itself is something that one can always monitor to make those decisions.

You are very right. If we really want to face it, most people already dumped their alts for btc before the first fork, so most alts did not really grow back any which way and this totally seem more like fresh and new investors coming in and which I totally believe will keep moving on like this till December.

Hence, it is just best to keep watching as the crypto world starts getting even more interesting in upcoming years.

I feel at the end one would just have to wait until the B2X fork is over or a little bit few days before the fork to buy into altcoin. I bought some few days back before the first fork thinking I would get some gains and then here we have them still going down even the more. It really sucks but it is something that is much expected so, so I guess we just have to wait until after the fork for a pump.

There is really a new and huge influx of money into bitcoin and the market cap is growing bigger every day. We really do not know why yet, which could be the fork or new or fresh investors, but the best right now is to just hold btc and stick with it.

Bitcoin is here to stay and whatever anyone wants to call it, as bubble or whatever, that is their piece of cake and they can join us later when we are very close to the moon.

Everyone in this world have a choice. That is one thing that has been given to everyone, and no one would make decisions for you as you are bound to your own decisions or the choices you make. Scammers decided to take that path and that to me is a choice as they could have taken another better path.

We might say poverty led them to it, but have you ever thought they could use those productive moments to even do it better. It is just the mindset to look for shortcuts without working too much and stealing from people that led them there.

They do not know how they want to go about the regulation yet apparently. And it really surprises me how a government that has never cared now comes out to show as if they have cared. Bunch of losers!

They have seen that it is getting out of hand for them and they are beginning to lose the control they have always had and then trying every means to stop it. We obviously do not want their care as we have always been caring for ourselves all these while anyway.

100 years may not really still be possible. Definitely, it could be possible in some places with no demand for cash and with access to technology but would definitely be slower in some places with lower infrastructure since you will have to pretty much be online to transact without cash.

So, all this put into place would make it not go into extinction anytime soon and even longer than 100 years in some countries.

Who are the they ? All the government worldwide ? You think some did not ? They tried! They attacked it ! They did everything possible. Do you know how much fund was lost during Mt. Gox ?
But at the end, it seems bitcoin just would not listen and then it kept on going and kept becoming even more of a threat and the only thing any sane government would do now is just to legalize it for their benefit since that is what most countries are already doing.

Sometimes we look for too much profit out of greed and then we end up discovering that bitcoin has had much stable growth this year than so many of these altcoins if not all. Most of these altcoins that people rush into and consider good alternatives only end up getting pumped and then getting dumped not long after and holding them can just be annoying.

Buying bitcoins also has some rick but compared to altcoin investments, bitcoin looks like much safer and high yielding. Hence it is highly recommended to stick within bitcoins for peace of mind and better ROI.

There would always be that risk compared to bitcoin. Indeed, cryptocurrency atmosphere comes with a whole lot of risk and then life in itself is full of risks.

They are risks worth taking though but one just have to be careful and make them a calculative risk.
There are some altcoins that have huge prospects and although we do not know the future but the idea behind them would make them stand out at the end.

I could have lost 1 BTC few years ago and then not bother and just see it as just a small loss and then now realize how much that could have been worth if I did not eventually gamble it.

I have made some mistakes by carelessly trying to gamble some of my huge bitcoins in the past to increase them, but then, I could have been worth more if I really did keep them.

But it is just one of those things and I do not regret it. Lots of times, elders will always say, if you don't try something, get your hand burnt, and learn from it, then you may end up doing it at the wrong time. It is just better to find something to invest in instead.

This is a very good suggestion and advise for those who wish to follow or learn from people who have had some crazy experiences from gambling.

If you have some pretty good cash already from gambling and you have been lucky enough for the house edge not to collect it back from you, it is best to invest them, watch them grow and if you wish you can take tiny little part of it to have some fun or try your luck if you feel you want to, but not because you want the same scenario to happen again cause it might not.

Good you see the  game as fun and nothing more than fun.
As for me, slot whether in casino or online is something that I have never liked as you just have to be at their mercy of the machine which can obviously do you some crazy shit obviously.

I have always preferred games with opponents and maybe some that I know it is with mostly the luck from my side like dice, but a machine that I am not sure whether it is programmed? No way!

Some people at the dump stage usually panic most especially newbies and it pretty sucks when they end up realizing they have been fooled and then the price keeps coming back up and they just have to get back in at loss.

Over time, that experience has made a lot of people to realize that you cannot survive in this world with panic and getting emotional, except for you being patient. A time will come when your investment has grown that you would bother less if a dump is occurring or not and you only even buy more at those stages.

Not even just in trading but generally in life, time management is a skill that can help you achieve so much in little time and at the end, you have the satisfaction that you have been able to touch most of the areas you needed to touch.

No one was born with it and we just have to learn how to imbibe it and then put into act in our daily lives. Like you said though, a trader who does not know how to manage his time would really find it hard doing well in the trading profession.

Honestly, it is! It would never have been interesting if we already know the outcome before we do it.
Most times when you make a decision in business, you always have an expected outcome with hopes and optimism that it does, and when it eventually comes out the way you want, that is where the happiness kicks in.

After all, if we had all known how to read the future or know what would happened next, there are some mistakes we would not have made normally, but then, life and doing business would be boring.

I believe it will have value more than $10,000 by the end of this year. Just remember what happened in 2013. I am just foreseeing the replica. Yes, in 2013 bitcoin managed to test four digits and in 2017, I believe it has all the potential to have values in five digits. By potential I mean the adoption rate. Other than that nothing decides bitcoin's value, right.

We may have prices near $10,000 also. But one thing is sure. Bitcoin will not stop its journey as there is no proper reason for staying calm. So, we can expect more crackers in coming days.

It looks like crazy for you because you do not know the real potential of bitcoins. If you will be ready to spend some time on finding why bitcoin is having value around $6500 and where it is heading then you will come to know that it is just a start as bitcoin is just 8 years old and it will be going to stay with us for centuries.

This all time high will keep on braking as many veterans are believing prices to touch the magical number $10,000 in next 2 months of time. Yes, we can welcome the year 2018 as a gentle rich bitcoiner.
