You don't have to rely too much on gambling to get money. In that game gambling is a 50-50 chance of winning or losing. Enjoying the game do not carry lust, concentration, and focus that will make us better and maybe that victory will come to us.

50-50? I don't think so. There is not such thing as 50-50 on gambling, Gambling is a high risk game and I don't think that 50-50 is even a possibility in a gambling game even if it is a hi-lo game. The possibility is maybe close to 10-90, might be lower chance of winning. Games like poker, blackjack and roulette, I don't think that the possibilities of those games are 50-50.
Without luck chances is really smaller than risk, I do agree that gambling  is a high risk habit, if you don't have a good self control it will just
ruin your bankroll and for sure it will end you up being addicted, there's always edge for the house that fact can't be removed the reason why gambling site keeps multiplying from day to day.
2242  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Easy to bring down BTC price? on: September 18, 2018, 04:34:09 AM
Would we ever be able to see (know when) wealthy finance companies working together to buy and sell bitcoin (lower), deliberately throwing money away to lower the price? Add in the $ that's made from shorting the coins (btc & eth shorts have record highs), and they can minimize their losses. No regulation, collectively billions to throw towards the cause, makes for an easy way to manipulate the price downward.

With no regulation (anyone can buy and sell any amount) and the majority of BTC trading volume being worthless (traders and bots running trying to buy and sell enough to make a few bucks), how much selling would it really take to continuously drop the price?

There was a record breaking 10,000 BTC short placed earlier in the week, just before the recent selloff dropped the price. Who knew? The sellers
Taking into account the $ made on the shorting btc and eth, does anyone know what it would take to continuously drive down the price? IMO, I don't think as much $ as people are thinking?  Sad

Manipulated bitcoin price is not easy, even they have big money and news sources to give impact into market users what you think is not right. If someone can do that I believe crypto is like stock, just need one call to create new price on broker market. Keep positive with bitcoin and just follow it, we will never become leader into financial instrument. Think again please.
A game of trust and better understanding, if you will believe that it can be fully manipulated then better for you to understand how they will work with it, bitcoin indeed an asset for several personalities and big holders, indeed that they can make such an impact if they start to work along with their big investment, just be wiser enough and understand the drill so you won't ends up nothing from this industry.
2243  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Pacquiao Vs Mayweather 2 on: September 18, 2018, 03:41:46 AM
There's a video circulating the net about this two boxers where allegedly the fighters met in Tokyo Japan for a concert and Mayweather started thrash talking Pacquiao and you can hear on the video Mayweather saying he will come out of retirement this coming December 2018 to fight Pacquiao for the 2nd time. Mayweather comes out as an early favorite for this match.

I saw an interview with pacman about the said issue. As I quote " We are still going to talk about it this week with mayweather's team but yes there is a possibility that this fight is going to happen". Despite the given statement from pacman it is clear for us that currently Manny doesn't want to fight in Vegas. However we also know that Floyd is  a Vegas guy so the said promotion will be having a hard time for sure.

Basically in my opinion if they can get close to the amount of the first fight then this fight might really be possible in vegas. Otherwise all of this will just be a talk to talk.
I just hope that this fight happens, as what happen to GGG's record lose might also happen to mayweather this year lol.
That's give some light with this rematch, if both teams will agreed and sign the final contract then it will be a billion dollar deal between this two fighters,
as a fans of Manny I would love seeing him playing with pride and aggressiveness to win the rematch but knowing how wise Floyd it still a big question
if how Pacman will be able to counter attack the defensive guard of Mayweather, looking forward for this fight to happen even not this year but just to
happen the sooner that it can work out and materialized.

I doubt nowitzki needs to come off the bench, I mean being a starter has a respect for it even if you play less minutes. Tim Duncan started his games until last day, they didn't looked for another PF until Duncan left. Nowitzki is definetly not good enough to be a starter at his age however if you give him less minutes it is still viable. Nowitzki has that superstar HOF career and making him come off the bench is just a disrespect if you ask me. Now if dallas was contenting I would understand but dallas can't even make the playoff than there is no reason for him to play less. He deserves to be a starter until his last game.
I like that, paying respect for your superstar who give you the title is really important, Dallas can still use him for starting the team as fans will be there
to see him and how he can manage to play against young generations, I still believe with his shooting capabilities and with his experience he can still give fans and enjoyment that they pay for, just give him enough minutes to enjoy the last season just like Tim had.
2245  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you believe in ETH? on: September 17, 2018, 02:56:19 AM
in my opinion it is not new in the crypto world that the price of ETH can drop dramatically and I myself am convinced that in the next few months the price of ETH will return to its peak because I see the graph now has begun to slowly rise above. the point is to remain be confident and confident.

There's always a good basis when analyzing the sway, better to look with last few years behaviors and learned how to anticipate the big blow, ETH can recover
and bounce back much stronger, its a matter of time and how investors will act, right now it's still in the process of analyzing and working with future potentials maybe more investors are trying to test the dip before investing back and wait for the good price to sell again.
2246  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: WHY DO MOST PEOPLE FORGET BITCOIN SO SOON? on: September 17, 2018, 02:46:56 AM
Anytime i see some members of this forum asking "Is Bitcoin dead"?, or "Is this the fall of bitcoin" i just become speechless because it is so shocking to hear that within just six months when bitcoin improved the financial status of people last year without any hard sweating people have forgotten about it so soon. I now understand the saying that "Men forgets easily". Well i can't really blame them but I know the few Real Crypto Enthusiasts like myself still believe in BITCOIN and we are going to keep investing in it because we know that the its value will rise with time.

True. Bitcoin prices will eventually rise in the future, but we cannot dictate the strategy of every cryptocurrency investor here in the forum. They may find a lot more profits with alt coins and maybe they're done with investing in bitcoins. I for one would invest in both sectors of the cryptocurrency industry.
There's differences in terms of investors mindsets, they have their own strategy and ways on how to maximize earnings, as far as I concern both venue can bring fortune and opportunities we do just need to make proper assessment and good judgement when we are picking our style working with trading
mostly with bitcoin or any other good alts that we are following and aiming to gained profits.
2247  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is there a required amount before you start trading? on: September 17, 2018, 01:51:56 AM
It shouldn’t, but it goes back to regulatory exchanges. I advise to use small capital in trading, try raise the small capital to many times of the initial amount. It also trains you to know yourself and fight lust.
For beginners, yes indeed as aggressiveness if doesn't been controlled well it will end up losing your investment, better to have small capital and learned
those fundamentals of growing your money, you can always adds up your investment when you fully understand and knows how to control well, though
we do have different perspective and understanding but one thing is mostly common to us, we have emotions that needed to be well carried while inside
this market.
2248  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Panic selling. on: September 17, 2018, 01:36:03 AM
Everytime people panic and selling their coins, the value of the coin are decreasing as more and more people are doing the same. But it is an advantage for the investors, because they can buy more coins when the price is lower.
Inside investors mind, when they trust the system they will keep buying then hold those who are in a panic mode don't have any knowledge about
what they are investing with, they must know the law of supply and demands, without this basic they will keep losing their money, better to have
proper understanding before entering this type of investment.
2249  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BTC transaction fees is going down. on: September 16, 2018, 12:21:20 PM
The transaction fee is going down because the number of transactions have decreased. Cryptos have lost more than 80% of their value from the 2017 December peak prices. Bitcoin has seen a slightly moderate drop, but a lot of people have dumped their coins and moved on.
Miners need to adjust if they wanted to continue working with this business, who will use the system if after all this downfall we will still see the same
amount of transaction fees same with last years pumped, the amount of that fees are considerable since the value really pumped high and many users
are aiming to gain a lot and keep doing transactions from time to time, so this adjustment will keep miners to survive.
2250  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Do you think ETH will be bounce back? on: September 16, 2018, 12:05:43 PM
Yes, I believe in it and I think that in the near future it will recover and it will pleasantly surprise us
When most of those spectators are already been discourage and expectations are no longer that big for the bull run, it will be a surprise coming from real supporters and people who believe with this coin, bounce back is not a problem its only the time frame that we needed to assess and analyze well so we can make a good entry position and the holding time table.
2251  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: ETH is $174. It is the bottom of the chart. on: September 15, 2018, 04:23:39 AM
ETH goes down to $174, Do you have any plan for this? I've just bought and wait to $1000 Cheesy

Let's beleive on this thing. I also think this will happen, but not in this year, will be in the next year. And the price of ETH can go down to 130 USD in this year before recovering back
Though that's another speculations and we can't see the possibility yet, maybe a very serious issue will pull the the price down to that level and will
create more downfall from those ongoing ico's who's allowing participants to invest with ETH, but being positive and believe that it will recover back
soon will allow you to keep buying and holding your coins.
2252  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why martingale is PURE SHIT. on: September 14, 2018, 02:35:02 AM
Sounds like someone lost big money to me Cheesy
Probably the only time that it could really work is that when you stopped playing when you already won. You think it doesn’t work, but it does work in a way. Just not all the time. Especially when you continuously gamble. I hope he gets over it fast.
If experienced wise,  maybe some chances of earning some little profits out from this system will work, but in the long run we read and heard a lots
of stories about failing after trying to use this strategy, it will completely burned you out as desperation and together with greediness will showed up
while you are inside the house, you will just realized it when you already out of money.
2253  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Now is the time to buy! on: September 14, 2018, 02:00:20 AM
This is the most appropriate time to buy, I agree with the idea. Decline may continue for a while, but I think there is an upward trend ahead of us now. So those who buy in these days will make a handsome profit in the future.
If you can wait and willing to take the risk, buying now will make some good chances to ride with the flow, most coins are hyping and if you are dealing for some short trade for sure you already gain a little, also if you are going to work with long term investment some sign of good run might happen if this bounce back will continue holding for some time will be a good opportunity to earn more.
2254  Economy / Economics / Re: Know Your Customer on: September 14, 2018, 12:55:59 AM
If you submit KYC to an exchange and project, you can be reported to government. Thus you should pay all your taxes.
 Lips sealed Lips sealed

Most government right now trying to regulate crypto market to collect taxes from crypto transaction. I think exchange will keep asking KYC because they should following government regulation
They must followed government rules if they want to continue facilitating their business from that place, government can't control crypto itself but the exchange can be controlled and that's why government wanted to have some control and knowledge about their costumers, it can avoid money laundering and also can help implementing taxes.
2255  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin in business industry on: September 13, 2018, 01:17:43 AM
maybe its not bitcoin but another new coin that will used for buiness industry, why? because right now we can see that many start up that use cryptocurrencies to find crowdfunding, so in the future maybe it will very popular in the business industry
I guess business owners will stick to the original concept, though it's my own two cents but using copycat project won't interest any of them
it much prefer to use bitcoin as a first crypto currency that already been around for quite some time, if they consider the concept and adopt
crypto's then bitcoin will be the first options before jumping to any other new projects.
2256  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Be careful with fake exchanges on: September 13, 2018, 12:41:20 AM
For every Phishing website out there that are trying to scam out people, they have this almost the same name of a specific website that they are trying to imitate but there's still a bit difference from the original one but sadly most of the victims are these new people because they are easily baited for not checking what is necessary, the exact URL.

Since I started using different kinds of cryptocurrency exchanges I've never been scam or lose a single coin for some phishing site because I'm double or even triple checking the right URL, it involves real money so if you are too lazy on checking the do's and dont's of crypto exchanges then you will eventually lose something.
It's better to bookmark the exchange and not to open it with any url links that you are not sure, most of the time those who been scammed by this fake site are those who didn't checked closer, we should understand that every scammers / hackers will do their best in order penetrate with someones accounts, we need to due diligence protecting our hard earned investment.
2257  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: South Korea Opens Doors for Cryptocurrency on: September 13, 2018, 12:26:21 AM
south korea, japan and many country that work with the future technology is always accept new technology like bitcoin and other tech, why? because they want to develop the potential of bitcoin, so they accept bitcoin and want to make all people in their country is use that
The idea of embracing new technology with proper knowledge can make things much easier for those countries, giving their people an options while exploring the benefits of a new system, S.Korea see opportunities and a lift from this new alternative currency that's why they wanted to maximize
every aspect that they use it to help their country.
2258  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoins may end year .....! on: September 12, 2018, 03:15:44 AM
this year ( 2018 )will end but bitcoin arent .  btc's value are still in a bad shape but that doesnt mean it is close to its end . this kind of situation that we are experiencing right now is only normal and part of the crypto cycle . after the dip we can always experience a pump . so there is no point of worrying nor panicking . what we should exactly do for now is to have a guts to buy a coin since they are still cheap .
Precisely, we just need to have some guts to continue our journey, bitcoin might be still on its downfall even the this year ends but considering the
potentials and those adoptions that can occur many investors will find new ways and crypto will be one of those options, we just need to stay positive
and trust this system.
2259  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: People say altcoins won't survive on: September 12, 2018, 03:02:11 AM
Yes I agree with that most of the altcoins are not gonna stay for too long because of their pointless projects. That's why I'm very careful of choosing the right currency that I invested last year to make sure I won't regret anything. And making more assets can also make your investments more productive in this kinds of altcoins.
Choosing correct project that have real usage will definitely bring an awesome outcome, the problem with most alts that has been created is the real intentions behind, they are just been made to be a pumped and dumped project and a copy of a real one which already existing, after several years those will be diminish and be forgotten.
2260  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bull Market has come? on: September 12, 2018, 02:45:07 AM
Ill think it is will coming but not for this month of september that coins in market was dropping to much.
Maybe in this month again in december be started the bull run.
No one really knows, unless we seen more buyers than sellers and more holders than shorter then we will see the the bull  to comes up and start
running inside the market, those who keep speculating regarding to it will get tired to the point of quitting or selling their assets too., make sure to
have additional patience and willingness to wait for the healthy market again.
