Well its clearly primedice, however primedice is losing attraction compared to its new and upcoming competition. This competition seems to be gaining more and more users and gamblers from Primedice each day. This competition may even cause primedice to go under and close shop.

They are that good. I believe this competition will eventually even buy out primedice and make it part of their own website, they are that big and powerful. Yes, you guessed it right, the competition is STAKES. Primedices new website. Aside from themselves noone will be as big as them (primedice) in the near future.
222  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What Is Your Worst Moment in Gambling? on: July 07, 2018, 11:35:28 AM
Mine was back when I started all of this bitcoin thing, I sold one gaming character and in return got some bitcoins. I gambled with it at work because it was a slow job and I had a lot of free time. None of my coworkers knew what bitcoin was or even heard of it.

So I kept gambling on just-dice for couple weeks and in the end I got "bored" with playing for chump change and I decided to put all my money in there, gambled all the way to x2 of my deposit and I stopped for the day. The next day when I started I had a bad losing streak, it went bad very quickly not much to do Cheesy
223  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC will not perish on: July 07, 2018, 11:02:47 AM
Noone believes bitcoin will ever perish. Even people who sell because they are afraid the price will go lower, believes that bitcoin is just losing value, not perishing. Even the most FUD person thinks that the price will go incredibly low but never perish. That is why bitcoin is insanely trustworthy.

It has no regulations from goverments and they can't touch it like they do with fiat. It has insane amount of people following it and believing in it. It has the technological background that no other currency ever had. I believe it will still be around even after we are all gone.
224  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin price prediction for july on: July 07, 2018, 10:32:47 AM
We can't predict what the price of bitcoin will be but we can try to "guess" what it will be. I think for now the realist in me says it will go down hard first and than go very high. I mean not 20k high but possible 8-10 thousand range. But in order for it to go that high, I think it will need to go down a bit more. Whales can "sell" bitcoin and with that money buy "short futures" as well, that way they can make a lot of money. However if they "buy long futures" which means bitcoin will go up, than they will also need capital to buy bitcoin to get the price higher.

So its easier to sell bitcoin and short it compared to other way around. However price is coming down to prices that will cost a lot to short. So next stop is take the profits from shorting and spend it on long.
225  Economy / Economics / Re: My Advice on Investing in Crypto on: July 07, 2018, 09:59:54 AM
My %100 advice to people who will start new is to "earn" as much crypto as possible. Yes you can invest in it too but do whatever you can do, do logos, write code, share digital stuff sell products. Whatever you are capable of doing, do that and "earn" as much crypto as possible and with that you will be amongst the users who talk about big amounts.

If you want to just invest your money will dry up eventually, you can't invest forever. However you can work as much as you can, your talents won't run out.
226  Economy / Economics / Re: Lost Bitcoins on: July 05, 2018, 11:40:51 AM
This will be the most important deal of bitcoin. There are risks and there are benefits. With the technology we have now the computres and machines will become so much strong that other people will start to work on getting lost coins back. 

If there are coins thats not owned by anyone or owned by someone but he doesn't have reach these new technology will allow us to recover those coins for either themselves or whoever lost it. The only bad side could be that under the wrong hands these machines might get your money as well and focus their power to hot wallets of big websites. Both a good thing and a bad thing.
227  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: gambling in the crypto market on: July 05, 2018, 11:09:50 AM
I think the reason why gambling is so loved in crypto market is the anonymity and the ease of gambling. First of all if I want to go to a casino I will need to hop on a plane and go to another country because my country doesn't allow it.

Also if I want to gamble online my country doesn't allow that neither, I can play it since I can't be tracked but I can't withdraw the earnings to my bank account. However when we talk about crypto gambling I can do it all day and withdraw it to cash and there would be no problem.
228  Economy / Economics / Re: Cryptocurrency wallets: Can they be hacked?? on: July 05, 2018, 10:07:56 AM
I am very interested to know if cryptocurrency wallets like Bitcoin Core, NEON, Electrum can ever be hacked ?
You’re no longer a boob so you supposed to know that they do get hacked. Such has happened several times, I have heard about lots of exchanges that got hacked and most of their clients/customers lost their money,  although they were asked to repay those that were affected but not every exchanger will agree to pay when such an occasion occurs. Coinbase has been working very hard in improving their security, I read so much about their improvement last year.
229  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: The market is so positive (100% HODL) on: July 05, 2018, 09:39:38 AM
I'm very excited. There are so many good news past 2 weeks. Just look at this:

Bitcoin and ethereum are not securities
Binance Expands into Uganda Opening Its First Crypto-Fiat Exchange
LINE Launches Bitcoin Exchange
Law Firm Confirms Tether Conspiracy Was Fake News
IRS-CI Joins International Effort To Fight Tax, Cryptocurrency And Financial Crimes

More good news from China
Bank Regulator Proposes Chinese Crypto License In Research Paper

And more
Amazon, Microsoft, and Alibaba: How three leading internet giants are using blockchain
Facebook Can’t Keep Up the Fight Against Crypto: Non-ICO Ads Allowed Again
South Korea Reveals New [Positive] Crypto Regulatory Guidelines
Coinbase Custody is Officially Open For Business

While weak hands are selling BTC at 6000, Cryptocurrency Firm Circle Sees Institutional Interest Spike 30%

Do you see it? I won't predict price action in this topic, but the one thing I'm pretty sure because of it: at least I will HOLD. A lot of positive things is happening right now and we are not so far from the deep. 5k? 4k? Doesn't matter. Market reversal is a question of few weeks. And we'll see a new global multi-year uptrend, guys. Still bullish on crypto.  Cool

If you like my post, press +merit. Thanks

If you want to hold thats fine but don't forget the more everyone holds the less bitcoin there is on the market, and the less bitcoin on the market the higher the price will go. Now that sounds amazing but as soon as it reaches a point where selling is profitable those holders will start to sell which will cause it to drop. We lived it on the 20k all time high and we are seeing the consequences of it right now.

Unfortunately as long as people do not realize that the purpose of bitcoin is same as dollars as in earning and spending instead of buying and selling we will always have these ups and downs.
230  Economy / Economics / Re: Reason we pay taxes and why we should on: July 05, 2018, 08:21:17 AM
If you are walking on the road and enjoying a nice day at the nearby park it's all because someone paid their taxes.
Taxes helps a lot , I have seen people frowning over about how they don't want to pay any taxes and as such.
Government ensures that if you earn over a certain amount then for sure you can contribute in the making of your country. It's only if you are able to.
Taxes helps in :

    Paying the salary of government employees
    Making of roads
    Public schools
    Parks run by the government
    Maintenance fees
    Making government hospitals
    Making high schools ... The list is endless

We all use all these services at one part of the life or other therefore we can just consider it a little payment for that .
People frown how government is corrupt , it is but not entirely if it was then you woont see new projects coming up in your town or city.

It's just our responsibility to pay taxes, we shouldn't run from it because it will more or so be used for everyone out there in your country , you are indirectly helping others too through paying them , the less advantageous ones.

Also one might say government can print all the money they need , but that's not the case ..the more money a government prints the lower the value of their currency gets which genrally have adverse effects in many sectors.
In some countries you don’t really need to pay tax cause paying tax is a total waste of time lol. The government’s are just criminals. In my country, since I started growing up I don’t even know what is a park,  cause I have never seen one and the government doesn’t care to build anyone.

All they do is give us fake promises and when they get in they don’t do what they promise. Well,  tax is meant for government workers, I don’t work for the government am an entrepreneur so I don’t need to pay any tax to those thieves.
231  Economy / Economics / Re: So many cryptocurrencies ! on: July 04, 2018, 12:35:37 PM
That's right, at the moment I see a lot of different coins. I do not have much experience to choose good coin and invest so now I only invest in BTC and ETH.




I think everything is back to the devotees to be able to save themselves and the friends around. This is what sometimes the government reminds us to be cautious in investing in the crypto world.
Legally and unofficially legislative corporations should be indispensable. It avoids cheating cheats fraudulently. But as we know there is no cryptocurrency to manage it.
Some people are now confused and are in pending to make decisions of investment; they are stuck in making their final decisions to select a source where they invest. I will tell you there are a lot of sources in which few are favorable for short term and few are for long term. Bitcoin and Ethereum are favorable for long term with huge profit while Altcoin, Litecoin and Neo are favorable for short term investments.

Yes, we should choose carefully on where we will gonna invest our funds, bitcoin and ethereum is for long term investments , and also thanks for mentioning the alts that is good for short term investments the Litecoin and Neo , I now have an idea which coin I will be investing to, also the number of crypto currency today is good because of the profits it will make.
You can invest in the top crypto in the market because these are the cryptos that have made people richest in the previous years by having diversified portfolios of the top profit maximizing crypto. Currently Bitcoin and ETH are considered as the most liquid and profit maximizing crypto in the market. You can also invest in some new crypto if you want but for that, you need to evaluate them and see the project behind them.
232  Economy / Speculation / Re: Price manipulation on: July 04, 2018, 12:05:25 PM
of course its possible. finance is influenced by human psychology. The easiest way to influence people is to manipulate them. speculation is the biggest weapon to attract investors.
At the moment, some are buying from the cheapest level. they will make good speculation and raise prices later on. and they will sell what they buy cheaply on their hands at a high price.
Price manipulation is important at this stage because the market has taken too much time to recover and still it is on the same page so it needs change and for that change big investments are required.

After big investment the demand rate will improve and will increase to satisfy the expectations of users because these situations are not suitable for those who invested on value higher than the current value so they are in loss for which big investments is the solution to manipulate the market.
233  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: HODL vs Day trading on: July 04, 2018, 11:34:44 AM
Hi. Just wanted to know u guys opinion of do the day trading and hold. Thank you in advance.
I prefer to hold than to participate in day trading. Trading is very difficult and you will have to go through series of training to be able to become perfect in it. Hodl is very easy and all you have to do is invest at the right time and withdraw when you’re losing to cut the loss.

Right now I’m waiting for the right time to invest my money to make profit, although I don’t know how this year is going to be. But I hope it’s for the better.
234  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Have you ever bought a product with Bitcoin and what do you want to buy? on: July 04, 2018, 11:04:55 AM
Today, many people use Bitcoin for investment purposes. There are a lot of people who have paid with Bitcoin before, what do you think about this?

Yes I have once bought a phone with Bitcoin, but I didn’t buy it online lol, just bought it from my friend who used to sell phone and he told me to pay for the phone with Bitcoin which I did, cause he was very much in need of Bitcoin then.

I haven’t bought anything with Bitcoin online, but I’m aware that you can buy anything you need with Bitcoin online from purse.io and even with about 25% discount on every product you need. One day I might try it out, although the problem is I don’t know how I’m going to receive it.
235  Economy / Marketplace / Re: List of companies that will ban your account if they know you're mess with BTC. on: July 04, 2018, 10:31:56 AM
This is my list of companies that will ban your business account if they know you're involved with Bitcoin.  (NOT ICO's... but Bitcoin specifically)

ChimpMail.com

ConstantContact.com

SendInBlue.com

Twitter.com (they "will" ban small Bitcoin businesses)

Please feel free to chime in if you've had any businesses accounts closed due to Bitcoin.
Are you serious about Twitter? 😒🤔 Although I haven’t seen any kind of advert about Bitcoin, but I do see some pages that tweets about Bitcoin and they are still up and running without being banned. Unless maybe they started this one newly, maybe due to Facebook did such a thing.

But Facebook has reversed their ban on cryptocurrencies, people can now advertise any form of crypto related business on Facebook now.
236  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ETH, Dash and Ripple which to invest in? on: July 03, 2018, 11:29:22 AM
ETH, Dash and Ripple which to invest in,
Which has more potential and make a good profit?
In general, the most promising, I would call ethereum. This is a fairly reliable and stable coin, which will always be in demand due to the fact that its platform hosts more than 90 percent of all ICOs. However, in some cases, ripple can also make a good profit. Therefore, one must proceed from the specific circumstances and trends of the market.
by looking at the development of these three coins I am comparing to all three also experience the ever-increasing development so as to be able to be relied upon. and also see its potential as Ripple's development is more reliable. so Ripple is perfect for investment. 
Exactly. The number of partnerships that ripple has made across the world In the past few months are unmatchable. Ripple has announced its piloting with big money transfers namely western union and money gram.

Ripple also has partnerships around with world with central banks and other institutional firms. Ripple has be working continuously to improve its transaction speed, cost efficiently, scalability and liquidity. It has also been working towards more decentralized way. So XRP is my bet.
237  Economy / Speculation / Re: How long will the bear market last? on: July 03, 2018, 11:02:28 AM
Hello community. The market is in a bearish trend for several months. One says that "sharks" create panic with the help of news, forcing small holders of bitcoins to sell themselves to buy cheap, others say that at the end of 2018 bitcoin will soar like a rocket. Many people write and speak on this topic. How do you think how long the bear market will last? Share your opinions.
We don’t know how long the bear market is going to last, but if I were to use what happened last year in determining what will happen this year, then we still have like about three months or so for the bear market to end.

You shouldn’t lose patience, since you have already got in, the best thing for you to do is continue to have the patience till this year ends to see if there will be any change. Things might just get better by the time. You’re about to quit. So don’t quit, just keep on having patience. I’m thinking maybe October.
238  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What is your best HODL in this Red Zone? on: July 03, 2018, 10:34:47 AM
in red price zone, no way to sell but only ways to buy and holding bitcoin, etheruem and etherum based altcoins until price will increase.
Yes, this is not the right time for selling anything. We all just need to have patience and Hodl till the price of every cryptocurrency starts going up. I sold out late December and invested in early this year when the price was around $6k.

I also have altcoins in my possession which I also plan to hodl till the end of this year when their price goes up. I believe that Bitcoin will yield a bigger profit, but that wouldn’t be a reason for me to not invest in altcoins.
239  Economy / Economics / Re: is there any economic effect for the country or bitcoin users on: July 03, 2018, 08:36:11 AM
now there are some countries that began to issue a ban on the use of bitcoin, is there any influence on the country and of course its users in economic value?
I believe that Bitcoin is affecting you negatively when you’re losing more money than you’re getting in every month. So when it comes to a country, we’ll actually say that when the loss or the amount of money that leaves the country’s purse is bigger than the profit they have made, then it’s a negative effect.

But we are all not going to make profit, there will always be people that made loss. That’s why it’s good to work hard so that you be better than others at the end.
240  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin recovering ? on: July 03, 2018, 08:04:36 AM
of course bitcoin will recover but we do not know when it will recover and which will surely show prices that go up and down at any time,but I think it will grow again for the next few months after falling to the lowest point will definitely rise again it is already a natural thing.

You are correct bitcoin will recover again, absolutely. It's really hard to predict when it will be but i believe that it will recover within this year and will soar high again at the market. Bitcoin foundation is strong despite of dips at the market now no need to worry because bitcoin will rise again. Patience is the key to have good profits at bitcoin in  the future.
Ever since I started investing in Bitcoin and altcoins, I have never seen anyone that was able to make an accurate prediction on Bitcoin price, not even for once😞. All of them I have seen are always wrong, so I don’t believe all these predictions. If you keep on relying on them, you will just keep on losing.

I have seen so many times where they predicted that the price will go up, but when that time reached, instead of going up the price rather went down and many people lost they’re money. I lost about 20%. Luckily I was able to make good profit in last year’s rush.
