2301  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Chasing losses - Double down bet or Bet twice? on: February 15, 2023, 12:50:34 PM
The last time I chase my losses I bet twice and manually pick my rolls but sometimes things will not go your way when you're chasing your losses, I sometimes think that when you are chasing your losses it is part of having a stroke of bad luck, you really have to stop when circumstances tell you to stop Double down bet or Bet twice, its useless when you its not your day to win.
If you chase losses and able to meet up and make profit, indeed you are very lucky because that is not always most what will happen, it is the time people use to lose. The last time I could remember that I chase losses, which is as usual, I lost more and I did not stop gambling until I lost all the money with me. Chasing losses is a bad idea.

When is the next significant bull run?
The potential of the Osmosis is more or Kava or Polkadot?
Nobody knows when next would be a significant bull run, but if you use bitcoin halving for it, it would be 2024/2025. But we only use past events to be predicting what could probably happen in the future.

I do not know about Kava, but Polkadot is a great coin, osmosis may not be like Polkadot because Polkadot is stronger, but that does not mean that osmosis is not a good project too.
2303  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is there an effective way to stop a gambling-addicted person? on: February 14, 2023, 05:43:10 PM
Prison may provide important lessons for people who are addicted to drugs. However, for gambling addiction it is much more different. Because, reflecting on what I found around me, there were some who were caught by the police selling illegal lottery, after they were released from prison they repeated the same thing. Even he was in and out of prison several times did not make him stop. I think the most appropriate thing is family support and/or a psychiatrist to improve psychology so he can live without gambling.
If someone is addicted and jailed for awhile, it might help. Even let us leave that aside, if someone lost very great amount of money to gambling, he might leave gambling for good. Someone can leave gambling because he gambled the first time and lose. Anyone can because of real bad event that happen to him at any point in life leave something, and gambling is one. But some people still learn lessons but still continue until they are finished.
2304  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gamblers theory on BEGINNERS LUCK. on: February 14, 2023, 01:14:26 PM
I believe in beginner's luck which comes to beginners when they are just starting to play gambling. But after playing for a long time, the beginner's luck will disappear because they will experience loss, and some even experience losing streaks.
You can first gamble and win. You can first gamble and lose. I have friends that first gamble and lost. I still even remember a friend of mine that gambled the first time and lost and said he will not gamble again and he is not gambling again.

Maybe after they get that beginner's luck, they should give up gambling for a while and not gamble. But most people who become novice gamblers instead play gambling again, which makes them experience loss at gambling. And many of them are getting used to this loss by continuing to gamble.
Making money is enjoyable for everyone, people are ready to devote time and themselves on what is giving them money, but many newbie gamblers do not know that gambling is not working like that, that it is just luck that they first have when they gamble. It will sweet them as they have the luck but later the opposite will start to occur and it may later become a bad time for them.

Osmosis is a good project, the staking is around 20 to 22% APY. Osmosis is a decentralized exchange for Cosmos (Atom) and I believe the coin will at least go 10x in the next significant bull run, that is my guess.

I do not know about EVMOS than the coin did not pump during this last bull run. Osmosis pumped from around $0.6 to $1.25.
2306  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling safer than before ? on: February 14, 2023, 08:36:42 AM
Yes I think gambling became much more safe now than it was in the past. There is no more real threat to our lives when we gamble online as when we were visiting casinos. I remember reading stories of people that being robbed on the parking lot after leaving the casino with big winnings. In today's word most of the gambling is done online which gives us another layer of safety and also anonymity.
But what about today that some sites are only existing in a way some novice think they are gambling sites, but instead, they are scam sites.

We have seen issues of people that will complain today that they play game and won and unable to withdraw. Many of the cases like these are legit. Many gambling sites today make deposit easy but make withdrawal very difficult to the extent that some legit accounts are blocked by the gambling site.

But I agree with you, especially in the physical harm side, online gambling makes that not possible.
2307  Economy / Speculation / Re: How much time For next halving? on: February 14, 2023, 07:45:29 AM
if not? then what will be the stand? best to be ready about what will happen mate because the first 3 halving have been a fruit for all investors/holders but the fourth might bring differently here in market.
For someone to be discouraged, it starts like this. For someone to keep postponing when to invest, it also starts like this. For someone not to invest at all and later be regretting it, it also starts like this. What I know is that the next bitcoin halving would be fruitful again which makes investing now to be good.
2308  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling safer than before ? on: February 14, 2023, 07:37:38 AM
What do you mean with "safer"? There are still lots of shady casinos out there scamming people. I wouldn't call this "safe". There are also good casinos with good reputation but not everybody is lucky enough to find them. For example 1xBet has a huge ad campaign everywhere, even in this forum and we all know that they are a scam casino. However, they still manage to attract customers and nobody can do anything about that.

I don't think we are in the "safe" zone and we will probably never be.
The safe zone we can have would be the blockchain gambling casinos, but the custodial casinos are the ones that are common this days, people have preferred the custodial way than the noncustodial way.

1xbet is not on this forum, the one I know that is on this forum is 1xbit. Both 1xbet and 1xbit may have a connection though, as some members of this forum said before.
2309  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How do scammers scale through on Bitcoin talk? on: February 13, 2023, 01:19:32 PM
You can know a proven scammer through the trust of the person in their profile. Scam is not moderated in this forum that is why scammers are still existing here.
Yes and no.

There are some people with zero trust that can be trustworthy and later be given positive trust, or it can be otherwise

There can be some people with many positive trusts but not trustworthy, example is yogg that let people trust him and gone bad, stealing people's bitcoin. Some people can build trust and later go bad.

Someone's account can even be compromised, there was one case of this in 2021 or 2022, that an account was compromised and later used to scam. That is why signing bitcoin message or PGP key is very important.

How to post on bitcoin forum using artificial intelligence system?

And is anyone on this forum using the AI ​​writing system?

What are the pros and cons of using AI writing systems? 

AI writing post against forum policy?
I do not know how to use AI to post automatically on bitcointalk, but I know people do against the use of bots to post because it may not give the accurate information needed and some information from bots can be spam. The best is to write posts offhand from what you know and from the experience that you have.
2311  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Bitcoin could hit $10M in 9 years but more sidechains needed: Blockstream CEO on: February 13, 2023, 09:39:06 AM
Can bitcoin marketcap get to 200 trillion? Expecting the price to be around $10 million at the time.

https://www.reddit.com/r/StockMarket/comments/1111f9w/bitcoin_could_hit_10m_in_9_years_but_more/
Quote
If Back and Finney’s $10 million price prediction becomes true, the BTC market cap will reach approximately $200 trillion.

Blockstream CEO Adam Back believes the price of Bitcoin (BTC) could reach $10 million by the end of the sixth halvening in 2032, as long as Bitcoin layer-2 technology and wallet infrastructure improves.

Bitcoin was less than $1 before when it was created, the price increased multiple times and now at $21800. If anyone told me that time that bitcoin price will get to $20000, I will not believe.

As the price of bitcoin is increasing, the more money pumped can not make its price increase up to when the marketcap was low, this is the reason altcoins with low marketcap but with low money pumped into it had more effect on the price. This makes me think this time again that can bitcoin get to 10 million in 9 years to come?

I look at the history of gold marketcap which is the highest among all assets, I was surprised about how significantly it has been increasing, but gold marketcap as of today is still $12.344 trillion. This makes me think bitcoin marketcap can not get to $200 trillion in just 9 years to come, but I know bitcoin may get to $5 trillion market cap as it gets to 1 trillion in the last all-time-high. I am not expecting the price to be that more than $1 million or less.

2313  Economy / Speculation / Re: How much time For next halving? on: February 13, 2023, 08:19:37 AM
How will the halving affect bitcoin price?
No one knows that.
In the first, second and third halving, what followed but in months were bull run. This is the logic, because the first, second and third were bull market, the fourth would most likely be of bull run too. I am expecting bitcoin to reach all-time-high by 2024 and 2025, we should keep on holding and continue to DCA when the price of bitcoin is still low now.
2314  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: in my opinion don't buy crypto at high prices on: February 13, 2023, 07:40:28 AM
I want to ask everyone?
what do you think causes people to behave like that, namely always buying at high prices,? but when the price is cheap he doesn't want to?
If people did not buy a coin at low price, the price will not increase, people are buying at every price. But if I understand you, people should not buy when the price of a coin is significantly high diring the bull year?

Define "high prices"? Because an asset that went up in price doesn't automatically mean its price is high; and inversely, an asset that went down in price doesn't necessarily mean it's cheap. Markets are far more nuanced than what you think.
Bitcoin was $4000 in 2020, it later increased to $20000, some people can think it is high already, not knowing it is going over $60000. We do not know what the high and low price can, that is true.

Cry
Invest in bitcoin which is the safest among all. If you want to invest on more coins, make research, looking for the coin marketcap and the ranking, read about the coin project history and invest only just little. Know that altcoins (other cryptocurrencies that are not bitcoin) are more volatile than bitcoin.

Luno is not a wallet, it is an exchange. Even if you regard it as a wallet, it is centralized. You can use Luno to buy bitcoin, but send it from there to a wallet like hardware wallet or if not plenty you can use wallet like electrum.

2317  Economy / Speculation / Re: will bitcoin go back to 19000 on: February 10, 2023, 08:10:28 PM
I'm not necessarily talking about the OP specifically, but just a few hours after Bitcoin started falling, we already have more than 5 threads about the end of this short bull-run and Bitcoin's possible crash again. I understand that we're talking about money, and everyone is a little worried when they can practically see their wallets draining in value, but why all this panic? It's completely unnecessary. Less than a month ago, Bitcoin was at $16,000, and it recently almost got up to $25,000; is it such a big deal if it falls to $20,000 or even as low as $18,000? Consider it an opportunity gap; personally, I'll receive more Bitcoin now that the price is lower, so that's a plus.
Like me, I wish bitcoin to fall so that I can invest more at $17000 which I believe is the resistant price for this bear and bull cycle. I also wish bitcoin can fall so that altcoins can fall more so that I can I best in altcoins too. I like to DCA but DCA above $20000 is not what I like, I like it below $20000. It is not about the price we invest on bitcoin that matters now, what matters is that we are invest at a low price, we are going to be happy later when bitcoin gets above $50000.
2318  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do casino and sports betting platform owners gamble as much as other people? on: February 10, 2023, 08:02:34 PM
Do you think that the owners of casinos and sports betting platform, gamble as much as other people do? If they gamble, do you think they gamble on their platform?
It will make no sense to them because they are the owner. Example is if I have a gambling site, I gamble, know that it is still my money if I win or lose.

If they win, it is there money it is the gain that it would be taken from there casino. If they lose, they lose to themselves and it is their casino. Which means they do not lose anything as they use their gambling site for it. That makes me think they can not even see gambling as fun.
2319  Economy / Speculation / Re: will bitcoin go back to 19000 on: February 10, 2023, 09:42:08 AM
I have seen the bitcoin market go down seriously. Currently, the price of Bitcoin is $21900 and the market is completely negative. But I believe the market will rise again. There is nothing to panic because the Bitcoin market always fluctuates like this so it is natural to be patient.
Bitcoin truly decreased, but not seriously. Bitcoin decreased from $24300 or so to $21800 now, there can still be a further drop in price. But you can not compare how bitcoin has decreased to many altcoins, like APT known as Aptos that increased to $20 and now at $13.2. that is the type of fall that are serious.

Yes the best thing to do is to just continue to hold bitcoin, a time is coming that bitcoin will make people happy again.
2320  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Signs of compulsive gambling on: February 10, 2023, 09:16:18 AM
I could remember that I used to have a friend who was a compulsive gambler, he would gamble away his money, and then locate where his wife kept her money and gamble that away soon, it wasn't easy for this couple as they fought each other almost every day that breaks.
Compulsive gambling is gambling addiction and it is what that can ruin someone's marriage or relationship with someone. I hope your friend is not an addict or compulsive gambler anymore? Because not being a compulsive gambler is what that can help him that can let his marriage hold.

But for someone to think of stealing his wife money to gamble is not only a compulsive gambling, it is more like stupidity. Please do not mind me for saying the truth.

Compulsive gambling is a habit one must never allow to take over them, and for those that are already into it, they must find a way to stop as this can lead to serious issues in the gamblers financial life as well as family too, it can lead to depression, health challenges and so on, gambling too much  was never a good habit.
It can put someone in a situation of depression and a state of thinking of killing oneself. It is what got some people to thievery and robbery too as they have nothing left to rely on.
