Well, for me this depends on the person we are talking about. It is true that there are a lot of people that did not finish or went to college but will it be applied to all of them?

Yes, practices and experience will do when you really need to achieve your goals. Sometimes great opportunity is what we need for us to become successful. Opportunities will help us build inspiration and determination during our hardship and challenges. People with the courage to grab the opportunity have a higher chance of reaching their mission and goals. Once there's an opportunity, never hesitate to make the best out of it.

There are a lot of people here in our country that is unemployed and is not a graduate. As long as you are passionate to do what you want, you can do that but let's be honest, these days, a lot of companies are prioritizing people who have diplomas.

As what you've said "passion", a person without that passion will never be successful, happy and contented in their lives. That's true that this generation is very technical when hiring some workers. Their standards are very high and they believe in educational attainment over skills. On the other hand, it is better to be a skilled workers with an educational background.

Cash App looks very promising.Paypal gets worse every year,with their constantly increasing fees and incredibly weird policies.If you are a business owner accepting payments via Paypal,they basically own your money and you are their slave.It's good to know that PayPal's competitors like Square gain recognition and try to expand into the crypto world by accepting Bitcoin.

Day by day, Square users are multiplying, what do you think is the reason? Good features and fast transactions is the common factors that help Square to bec ome more appreciated by the people. That's really the best decision Square has ever made, they enter the crypto world and they have a good service for the customers. In terms of Paypal, it is also a good one but minor errors are the reason why sometimes they aren't reliable enough to buy btc with. People prefer a more well-founded platform or apps that can satisfy their need in cryptocurrency.

Thanks for the information and i hope the newbies will be wise enough to listen to this warning. Nevertheless, I'm not surprised about this kind of scam because crypto scammer always use miscellaneous of strategy to scam crypto enthusiast when bitcoin halving is moving toward.

We should not always believe on what we read and what we see on our social media accounts. It is the way of scammers to fool people and persuade them, they use some false information that the artists are using cryptocurrency. That's an example, but we're thankful because he cleared it out that he is not involved in any cryptocurrency. At least we know the truth about those accusations and misinformation because it is not helpful in the crypto world to use a certain popular people. Scammers should stop because beginners are the one whose always a victim of this people, scamming is one of the most common problem in cryptocurrency. We are the one who can handle and avoid it, but before that, we should be mindful of the surroundings, most especially in our social media accounts. Don't trust easily and we should improve the security of our accounts.

Yung mga hindi totoong balita ang nagiging sagabal para sa iba na hindi pagkatiwalaan ang cryptocurrency ng dahil sa kanilang pinaggagawa ng mga halang ang kaluluwa na yan. Sana naman huwag na nilang idamay pa ang crypto sa mga ganito dahil madali pa namang mapaniwala ang mga Pilipino na kapag sinabing scam ang crypto agad agad maniniwala mga yan without doing research.

Kaya minsan mas mabuti pang magsaliksik muna at maging updated sa mga balita kesa magbase lang ng nilalabas sa social media. Hindi lahat ng nababasa naten ay totoo, minsan gawa gawa lamang ng tao para makapangloko. Lalo na sa market at ganitong uri ng mga pangyayari. Hindi biro ang paggamit ng mga kilalang tao para lamang makapag endorse ng cryptocurrency. Buti binigyang linaw ni tito boy ang lahat para na rin sa mga tao upang hindi maloko. Sana ito na ang huling pagkakataon na mangyayari to, dahil maraming tao ang naniniwala agad agad sa nababasa nila sa facebook, twitter at iba pang social media app na karaniwang ginagamit ng mga tao. Maging mas maingat tayo sa mga impormasyon na nababasa naten dahil dito rin nakasalalay ang cryptocurrency at dito rin tayo nakabase sa mga balita kung ano na ang kalagayan ng ekonomiya naten.

I was wondering if anyone made a fish arcade game (king of treasure, ocean king,etc.)with bitcoin or alt coins yet?
It’s very popular in Hawaii for about 10+years
So far i havent seen for Bitcoin to be integrated to this kind of arcade game.Its also famous here on my country seeing those people around playing fish arcade and getting some tickets as prices
that can be exchange into a particular item.It would be nice if we do see this physically on our place but its still early to say about this stuff.

Fish arcades are very entertaining and amusing to play and people are getting addicted playing it. This game is also famous here in our country and the thing is that it is very easy to play. You will just aim and hit for the fishes with the certain value of scores. The prize here is also a coin, once you put a coin in it to play, when you hit the best target or the bosses then the machine will give you a huge amount of coins. I just don't get it why they save a lot of coins, what will they do about it? Because every time I go to an amusement park, I always see the fish arcades that are very crowded. It is a good idea if they implement cryptocurrency as a token/prize here. The most entertaining game of gambling if that happens, you will not think of a strategy, you'll just play and play until you get a certain score and that will serve as your profit.
2166  Economy / Economics / Re: Goverments creating digital currencies - Threat or Opportunity? on: January 30, 2020, 04:04:49 PM
It's not a threat to Bitcoin at all -- Bitcoin can only grow stronger for every instance of centralised money that is created and continues to come up short. Every failure of the centralised and the state, is a victory for Bitcoin. Threat to other centralised altcoins? Oh for sure.

Opportunity? Why not? Every government that realises it is creating yet another centralised currency - just more transparent and more under their control, might like blockchain and in that sense recognises Bitcoin tech as valid.

What if they focused on their own cryptocurrency and bitcoin become useless? And the new one is a decentralized currency that's why it is possible to happen? The other currency will get the attention of the people in a certain government if they see that it is more effective than the old one. Bitcoin is a centralized coin so that government has nothing to do with it, they just get some taxes and fees exchange and that's the only thing they do to benefit in the cryptocurrency. I wonder when the time happens that after they learn and understand the effect of digital currency in their society, this can be a threat to bitcoin. There are a lot of hindrance to the growth of the bitcoin and some of them are altcoins, but the thing is that they are always just for alternative purposes to bitcoin. In the end, we need to accept that the bitcoin is the most used and popular digital currency around the world. There is still a chance that a new digital currency will defeat bitcoin 10 to 20 years from now.
2167  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Are you holding Bitcoin? on: January 30, 2020, 06:25:30 AM
Because from the beginning I was very sure that bitcoin was the future. So from that I was holding bitcoin since 2015. It's not been
felt now 5 years have passed, and I get incredible profits from bitcoin. I only sold some of the bitcoin that I had to buy sudden necessities,
the rest still held up now. Because I believe bitcoin will continue to rise, in fact I believe this year bitcoin will rise above the ATH price that
is occurring in 2017.
We cannot predict when will bitcoin start to rise again. Holding a bitcoin is a common strategy for some users by just waiting for its value to increase. Some of countries are still late in terms of technological adaptation so some are still clueless about bitcoin and the other types of cryptocurrency. If all of the countries accept bitcoin and adopt the innovation of technology. I think bitcoin's demand will start to gets higher than its previous data. But do not stop by holding it, take time to invest or save in order for your money to grow more. We all believed that your theory will happen someday and bitcoin will become the key for our success.
2168  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do you ever trade at work? on: January 29, 2020, 03:38:00 PM
Trading at work time is not a good Idea because once you caught by your boss possoble for you to be fired, I know trading need to check regulary or every few hours to see if they have any movements happens byt they have right time like your launch and break you can do that fast and also using your work computer for trading is not a good Idea that is property of your company not yours but if you use your own that is okay.

But I know many workers who are using their work time for trading if they are trader if they work on the office that have internet connection theh do that.
Trading may do anywhere and anytime you want, but you need to manage monitoring it. At work, you need to focus on what you are doing so I think there is no time to do a trade even in your break time. There are times that you need to choose what thing you should prioritize in a certain day. Today, you can do trade using your phone so you don't need to use computers. That workers you knew, I think are the one who used mobile phones because it is handy and easy to hide.

All in all, it still a bad idea to trade at work because you can't focus on two things at a workplace and also you can't excel on multi-tasking, one should be prioritized and monitored. So use only free time to trade. If you badly needed it then make a free time for yourself while making your day still productive.

2169  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: I quit my job to do full-time crypto-trading. Made 12 BTC profit last month on: January 29, 2020, 02:38:58 PM
Yes there is possible in the crypto world,But not possible without knowledge and practice.Spending lot of time on trading and making analysis and getting positive output for every analysis it mean this is best time to quit job.Without kbowledge quitting job will cost you and can face the financial problems.
Quitting job may be benefitial or good for him if and only if he is not satisfied and happy doing it but full time trading must not be the reason for him to quit his job. You can do trading in your free time as well as monitoring it. If you found  trading gives you more money than your actual job what else if you are making money through trading at the same time working on a job where you spent your whole life studying just to have it. You can double your income and also fulfill your purpose as a human in terms of socialization. There is no winning in quitting because it may leads to problems you can't face alone once you settled yourself in full time trading. Not all day is your birthday I mean you are not that lucky everyday. Find another job as soon as you can in order for you to start again.
2170  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How did you start trading? on: January 29, 2020, 01:47:41 PM
I started trading by learning from video on YouTube how to read cryptocurrency movements charts, how to control emotions when trading, this is all important to learn for beginner trading, and I am also easier to learn trading from video than reading books or articles about trading
Starting without any ideas on how and when to start is a really hard thing for those who wants to trade. Using only least percentage of your own money will make you play safe to be able to manage it and not to be much disappointed if you lose it. Forum and talk have a lot of opininons coming from different person regarding a certain topic which is somehow helpful but not that effective when it comes to building your own strategy. Watching advices from different traders on youtube is a great idea because they can somehow show what they are doing than by just reading opinions in this forum. It is a big help for future traders having this kind of information so that they will have an idea when they about to sell or buy goods and services but I think the best way to start is have a companion who excel in trading.
2171  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Full time trading is boring on: January 29, 2020, 08:41:02 AM
Nothing. You either just suck it all up, or move on from trading altogether. Most(or at least some) internet entrepreneurs(bloggers, YouTubers, people who do online gigs through sites like Fiverr, etc)  work alone at home too, so it's not like day trading is the only profession that's mostly being alone in front of a computer. You just have to find the job/profession that has the perfect balance between fun/not-boring and making good money.

Why not just go out with friends and socialize after like x hrs of trading or so?
You will experienced boredom if you do continuous mistakes or once you done successful trading several times to the point that you are satisfied enough to your earnings. Online entrepreneurs like mentioned are the one who enjoyed being in the cyberworld, making profit and at the same time socializing to other netizens. The real world is out there you need to balance your life if you want to find the happiness you want. Full time trading is really boring if you are not fully committed to it. You can also share accounts to your most trusted person in order for you to have free time. Maximize your time doing the things you wanted. The life is not always about making money think on the things you excel and do it repeatedly, once you found it interesting and didn't get bored you are experiencing true happiness within you.

Besides using the idea of BUY and SELL which is very common yet one of the simplest fundamentals in this field there is an experience you have to obtain. Experience if the most important thing you need to obtain in order to be an efficient trader. Since you have enough amount of money just like what you have said try to use few of it to practise and gain experience. If you encounter any loss upon your trade don't be down but rather absorb it all, this can be used as a guide or as a learning to improve your trade. One thing, all the info you can find in this forum or everywhere can be used as a guide and tips but don't rely on it too much, have your own strategies and work on your analysis.
Since the common thing in doing a trade is buying and selling of goods and services knowing the basics is a must. Trading while you are a newbie is a hard thing to do because of lot of things you should know before trading. All of us knew that trading requires specific amount in order to get started. No first timer done it perfect so if ever you failed or loss your money take it as challenged and a lesson. Experience is the best teacher because it helps you minimize your mistakes and maximize your ideas. Also you can seek learning and strategies to those who excel in trading until you come up with your own strategy. Analyse your strength and weaknesses so that you can focus on what your great to. Have patience because no one earn in just a blink of an eye. Dream big with actions.
2173  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: A good advice for every traders. on: January 28, 2020, 02:06:46 PM
"Invest only what you are afford to loose."
This was the first advice I had got from my teacher and will tell the same thing to everyone whose trying to start trading in any manner.

Go with your instincts. Logic is not perfect.
Actually, the first requirement before investing or trading is an actual amount of money ranging to a specific minimum amount to a maximum one before knowing what the basics are, because you can't do a trade by just knowing how to do it and what are the things you need to know about it, in the end the money is the first thing you should have here. If you are a beginner use only the amount you can afford to lose for less disappointment if ever you failed or do it wrong. Your experienced doing it will become your teacher for future trade, but if you still unlucky and doing it unsuccessful you need to seek for learning and advice to those who excel in trading. It is not only about  buying and selling of goods and services but also on what you can contribute to your party and society. Do not stick on what is happening today, see also what might happen in the near future. If you are brave enough to take a risk always give your best shot everytime you trade. Your mentality will be your great weapon to your success.

Wishing bitcoin to hit its fullest is a common dream for all of us. In the past years bitcoin's value increases as the demand gets high just like what happens lately in the history of bitcoin. My dream for bitcoin is to last longer than it could be, there are rumors about it asking what if bitcoin is gone what will be the replacement for it. Hearing those kinds of things made me feel sad and confused. Dreaming is free so if it is for bitcoin, dream high.
2175  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Anyone here dream of achieving their financial goal in life through gambling? on: January 28, 2020, 08:42:19 AM
Even disregarding the money talks here, or even if I have a supernatural power of luck, I still don't see myself reaching my dreams through gambling. I mean it is not fulfilling like a decent profession can do. I would rather choose to work 7x a week as an engineer than be a gambler all year long Grin. Because life is not just all about money, doing what you love and what makes you happy is more important.
That's for you because you love your job, actually I also feel that when I was still new in my job but when time comes I realize I  won't never become rich if I only rely on my salary, so I try to find ways to fast track my financial success and gambling has been one of the option I found, but hey! I am not saying I am a successful gambler today, I am still continuing my journey though, as long as I am doing it, I still have a chance.

Many people now think that having a stable job and income is good because if we are thinking about the kind of mindset, it is too hard to earn money and reach your financial goals. If you are kind of person that wants to risk something to earn more extra money I think it is better if you will play some gambling games because most of the time the people want to make extra money goes into the gambling house to play and test their fortune and like to play. In playing gambling, you need to have minimum ideas or techniques always seek for some ideas that will help you as a gambler it is not hard to have a data with the use of internet you can use our search engines to find out which techniques or strategy is the best to win the game. But many players today do not learn with the use of reading text and watching videos to understand how does the gambling works, some of them are play in actual to learn a lot of things, and they chose the failure or the experience as the best teacher to learn to play that was a good idea too, but it depends on the person how they will learn quickly or not and also it may cause of losing some money too just to learn.
2176  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tricks and tips for esports betting on: January 28, 2020, 07:14:30 AM
Today with the use of sports betting many people wants to include the esports and one of the growing betting site is with the use of esports commonly with the use with the games like the defense of the ancients 2, league of legends, Fortnite and many more. Esports betting is one of the best matches today and also there are a lot of websites that support the team analysis it shows the stats of the team win rate, player analysis and records and by the data we can gather is we can use to find out which team will win the game.


I agree to @TheUltraElite. There are fixed matches but mostly in esports it's not the bookies that run it but it's the players themselves. For example, there were already a lot of players that were banned by valve due to match fixing. Knowing that Valve is the owner of steam where Dota 2 currently runs and the one that organizes huge tournaments with millions of prize pools, it's a devastating ban for life for those involved players.
https://liquipedia.net/dota2/Banned_players

This is precisely why I can never bet on esports. I'm not saying it's full of cheats or anything but I've heard stories from lower levels and seen myself in my country some of the local tournaments, where it's just full of deals and backdoor agreements.

Good to ban people for life from cheating. I absolutely hate it.
It's painful to the side of the bettors because they are supporting a specific team, knowing that the team they are supporting is already accepted or designated to lose the game. This covers the whole betting platform for Dota 2 which includes item and also to those bookies which are the bets are into bitcoin. The punishment is hard and it's removing your whole career into the competitive scene if you are a pro player.

Dota 2 is one of the best competitive game of all time today the valve or the pro scene if the world of dota now supports the use of esports betting like the gosugamers and odds of the winrate of the time and this is good because the viewers see the potential odds of winning of the team.
2177  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How often do you gamble? on: January 28, 2020, 02:30:05 AM
Are you gambling everyday?
twice a week?
once in a never again?

if you gamble everyday, can you stop whenever you want or are you fully addicted?

would love to hear more on your habits here on the forum.

I don't gamble every day because I don't want to become addicted. If we gamble every day, it is not easy to stop in the middle of the game because we can feel that the game can give more pleasure, and we might think about to win the money. I am not fully addicted because I can prevent myself from playing gambling. Besides that, if I play gambling, I can limit my money, so I don't use big money in one round so that I can play over and over, and if I think it is enough for me to play, I will stop and close the tab from the site.

In playing gambling sometimes we are looking for fun and becomes hobby and addiction some of us will play gambling want to have some fun and extra earning but some of us cannot control our selves because of having too much excitement in playing gambling we did not monitor our situation and handle our emotions. In gambling there are only two erson, one is the winner and has some luck in their games, and next is the loser who loses their money because of too much playing. Even we are skilled and knowledgeable in trading, we still cannot avoid losing because of another player who good at playing gambling. Always prefer for having control your self like set an amount you will play so there are no regrets on playing gambling and also set an amount of gaining profit sometimes being greed can cause of our lose.
2178  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know if a gambling site is scam or not? on: January 28, 2020, 01:20:56 AM
the past is different from today, because with the growth that is happening at least at this time we will easily get a trusted gambling site here, with so many gambling sites that have been popular then why should we try a new gambling site, if you don't have the skills to create the research then only use trusted gambling sites here i think it is the right choice
There are risks if we will immediately use new gambling sites; let should first view the reviews of their new users. There are gambling sites that can be considered a scam because of the withdrawal issue. For those who want to guarantee the safety of their funds, use a gambling site that is now trusted where its operation is now more than years because the safety of your fund will be guaranteed due to their high security.

Today there are a lot of websites introduce like gambling websites and those the popular to the gamblers, but today there are a lot of scamming websites that are pretending that they are real or like the duplicate. How can we assure that the website is genuine, today it is not hard to find some information like reviews and comments of other people about the particular website. With the use of the reviews, you can now identity easily of the site is legit.
If you still doubting if they are authentic gambling site because we want to avoid loss of money with the use of our web browser if you open the link of the website you use there is a security or lock icon on the left and this is an indicator of the site is secured and listed as a legit website.
2179  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trade with USDT or BTC? on: January 27, 2020, 09:28:10 AM
I trade on exchanges that support both. Then I can use BTC as my regular collateral and switch to USDT in volatile periods where I don't wanna take extra risk.


Right answer, i think people can simply do this thing because maybe (cmiiw) trading pair in BTC is more choice than in USDT pair, and price is almost same i think. If people afraid with volatile, just sell bitcoin to USDT after our trading executed and don't need to worry about volatile anymore.
It all depends on the current market perhaps switching from USDT to BTC or vice-versa will make you a good amount of profit. you can also trade a lot of altcoins that are propotional to its trend for USDT or BTC. Trading should be fun if you know how to spot the possible trades.
This might actually be a good way of trading. You can find a coin which has trading pairs in both Bitcoin as well as the Tether. You can than make purchase in bitcoin in the bearish trend and sell of that coin in USDT so that you can gain some instant profit.

There are a lot of opportunities for arbitrage trading which would work similarly and would give you good profits if you are quick and instant in buying and selling those coins at the approx time. USDT gives us a stable income as the price is not much volatile but it might also not give you excess profits which BTC would give you. Bitcoins have high volatile price and hence they might give you higher profits by keeping bitcoin in your trading pairs.


In having trading between the bitcoin and to the usdt you can now see the balance of this coin because the use of pair they are soon supporting the use of two coins make a trade today when the cryptocurrency is prevalent and have a reasonable price you can earn profit with that you if the pair you have is the bitcoin and the usdt make sure the cost of the graph of the exchange of those coins are profitable but if not it is better if you hold your coins. As a trader, we are avoiding loss income always focus on to have a good profit. Stilll, it depends on you if you needed to pull out your coins or not.
2180  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What happens to my two Bitcoins (just for example) if I lose my security key? on: January 27, 2020, 07:39:54 AM
The private key is the key to storing bitcoin so if you lose the private key it's the same as losing bitcoin too, because if the private key is lost of course no one can open your wallet and of course your bitcoin is no longer useful.
bitcoin is not the same as fiat currency where you will be given the freedom to choose how to save your finances.

Serial key or the private is one of the essential thing as a trader or a holder of a wallet because this is like your passcode or a recovery code because most of the time they are using this just for detecting that you are the user of the account and I think it will cause a considerable damage for you because of losing your account. Please make sure you store your private account key and make sure it is secured to avoid some issues in the future. Sometimes the users store their passwords or private keys into their social media, but I think it is better if they will make those in a traditional way to avoid hacking.
