2301  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How many BTC Satoshi Nakamoto own? on: February 17, 2019, 11:07:25 AM
in my opinion it is impossible to find Satoshi's bitcoin storage address because in addition to its very secret identity, looking for a bitcoin address Satoshi is a useless thing because if we find it we won't get any profit

Well, if we will be talking about Addresses, the closest possible address Satoshi use was the address others call the "Genesis Address", wherein it is the first ever Bitcoin address and it is said to be the home of the first Bitcoins being mined. From that, we can actually say that it is one of Satoshi's wallet since as far as I know, he is the first one to mine Bitcoin.
2302  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Cryptocurrency One Big Ponzi Scheme? on: February 17, 2019, 10:43:52 AM
Cryptocurrency is not and cannot be compared to a Ponzi scheme. Yes, there are Ponzi schemes using cryptocurrency but cryptocurrency itself is not a Ponzi. The concept of cryptocurrency has a wide appeal that is why people are rushing to invest in it. Unfortunately, smart programmers have caught in on the freedom of the blockchain to create shitcoins, extorting money from people who have put their trust in cryptocurrency.
but nowadays there are many who say bitcoin is a ponzi scheme that happens and there are lots of price games that occur at the price of cryptocurrency so many people give bad statements about the price of bitcoin.

And do we need to give them the attention they wanted? Do they have that proof that Bitcoin is a Ponzi scheme? If Bitcoin is a Ponzi Scheme I can say that the mastermind of all of this is so patient waiting for 10 years to do it. Also, if Bitcoin is one, then I guess it should be done when the time the price is at $20K. They are all talk but they did not know what Bitcoin really is.
2303  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Benefits from Gambling on: February 16, 2019, 11:54:09 PM
i should say if you gambled and won some 2x,3x or even 10x or more Get out for that day take your profits come back other day,Don't be crazy make strategy and stick with it.
When the people won two times of their capital they think that why the should not try make into three times and if they did that means they will look for more so it will keep going unlimited that is why gambling is not for earning.


This depends on what you want to do. Gambling is a great way to earn money actually as a lot of people want to test out their luck or have fun with their friends using the money they have. Well, I am saying this because if you are an owner of a gambling site or a casino, you can earn great money. If you are just a gambler, you will not be getting good profits unless you try the games that rely less on luck.
2304  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling - Eating your Brain and Money on: February 16, 2019, 11:37:33 PM
Gambling losing streak,

I’m into gambling for about months now, and in my first game I was able to generate profit enough to be happy, I continued for the rest of my 4 weeks of playing, sometimes its breakeven but I know its ok.

My friend invited me to play with him in casino this time, I have enough money to play for so I decided to say yes. Bad luck comes to me this time, at first my loss was about $500, so I know it is still fine and decided to continue, but the moment we stopped I think its too late now since I’ve already loss $3000, a very bad day for me. I’ve lost the money I’ve worked hard for.

This is an eye opener situation for me, and I’ve realized that gambling was slowly eating my brain and my money. Now I’m broke but still kickin, this can be the proof that chasing your losses is not good at all and it should be avoided. Have the same experience with me? Don’t hesitate to share and give some thoughts for those who are suffering from sitution like this.  Sad
Gambling is a very risky venture and it is not good one should go into it without adequate knowledge on how to do it properly.  You have to know that you can lose everything and we can still make money from the market also and the money you make is loses from others gamblers.

I think they already know this before going to gambling sites or casinos, they are not that dumb. The misconception of a lot of people to gamblers is that they think that if that certain gambler get in or access a gambling site, they will not be able to stop themselves, There are still a lot of people that can stop themselves but the thing is that they just don't care with the money that they bet most of them quickly and not slowly. They do not enjoy gambling, well some do but most of the time, they don't because they are losing.
2305  Economy / Economics / Re: is it possible that the bitcoin was created by governments? on: February 16, 2019, 03:15:18 PM
Until now, no one knows who exactly Satoshi Nakamoto is, whether he is a government or a company, no one can reveal it, this is indeed a question, who is he who can make the blockchain system

He is a great programmer, he is a genius who thought about making Bitcoin, inventing the Blockchain. He is far to be a government since he made Bitcoin a decentralized crypto currency. If he is from the government, then he will be making it a centralized crypto currency, not a decentralized one. It will not be a volatile crypto but a stable one.
2306  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can REGULATION Really Be Beneficial to Bitcoin? on: February 16, 2019, 01:09:25 PM
Bitcoin is still one of the most popular digital currencies in the world. maybe now the regulation can provide the benefits of bitcoin as long as the regulation really facilitates bitcoin and other cryptocurrency. so I think this is a good step for bitcoin.

Bitcoin is the most popular crypto currency in the world and no other crypto currency will ever surpass it. Bitcoin and I think other crypto currencies are legal in our country but I think only us, a small number of people are using it since we are a third world country. No one really uses it since only a few people know it and capable of using it.
2307  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Would Bitcoin be the same if Satoshi wasn't anonymous? on: February 16, 2019, 12:27:39 PM
It wouldnt, i think that the vision of satoshi would be the only one with value in that distopic reality, something like ethereum and vitalik buterin

I think there will be a difference when Satoshi is known and still supporting and developing the Bitcoin that we know. First off, if Satoshi is around, a lot of people will approach him to tell him good or great upgrade or improvements to do with the crypto currency he made. Second, I guess since he made it, there will be a rivalry of owning it, not of people but country. That is just my opinion though.

Or maybe Satoshi is into something that we don't know yet as other part of his reason of staying anonymous, because once he gets known. Media will surely expect a lot from his capability. Can he do this and can he do that, when we're speaking about digital entities that will surely be globally used and not just specifically to where he is currently right now.

Well, that might be true. There are some rumours about the two sides of what might be Satoshi Nakamoto is planning to do. There is this theory about the Good and the Bad Satoshi. The good Satoshi they are saying is that he will be controlling the price in order for it not to drop using the million Bitcoins he has, the other side, the Bad Satoshi is that he will be keeping all of the Bitcoins he has and if the time comes that the price is good, he will be selling all of it leaving his creating into rubbles.
2308  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Understand addiction! on: February 16, 2019, 12:04:03 PM
i think any kind of addiction bad for health,life and effect negatively on your life.if you thinking i am addicted just change your routine,change life style you will feel great.

True, whatever we do excessively, it will usually have a negative impact on other things in our lives and no exception with gambling. Moreover, gambling can have a fatal impact, especially with wealth if we are addicted. Doing all activities in a balanced manner is the best way.

That is really why we need to balance the things that we do in our lives. Some things that we do excessively might have a positive impact but there will come a time that we will be facing a consequence to that. As the band Journey sang it, too much love will kill you, and that is the same as other things especially to gambling, it might not kill you but it will fill you with regret and hardships.
2309  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling - Eating your Brain and Money on: February 16, 2019, 11:40:03 AM
We are in a lucky situation wherein we already realized that we are slowly being eaten by gambling and our greediness to win a lot of money out of it. In the past, I am also so close to being addicted to gambling though don't get me wrong, I already lost a lot of money and I quickly realize that I need to stop. I am not that addicted but it is still hard to stop. I needed the help of my family especially my wife, I want to stop because of them since they are also the reason why I want to earn the money.
2310  Economy / Economics / Re: Would a global disaster increase or decrease the Bitcoin value ? on: February 16, 2019, 11:07:39 AM
I don't think a global disasters will affect the bitcoins value in the market even in a positive and negative scenario because disasters are happened only in a one place at a time and it also can't destroy a whole country which means that the economy of the affected area don't need to get inform the market to increase or decrease their because government will do much more help to it using their currency.
Well, this is huge than what you and I think or believe because we're talking about global disaster which I believe if it occur it will definitely cause decrease in price of bitcoin value because every aspect of bitcoin have to do with the internet. Besides, do you remember what happened to the bitcoin market when the US workers salaries were not pay acouple of days not to mention global disaster.
moreover the disaster is in a country that has legalized bitcoin such as Japan or America, of course with a glogal disaster will affect the price of bitcoin. of course the electricity facilities will be stopped for a moment, especially the internet that cannot work without electricity, but I don't think that will last long

I don't think you need to think about that. You already said it, it will not last long. If there will be something that will affect it very badly, it will be the legalization and also another world war, I guess nuclear war will also be a problem. I know that it is far from happening except the legalization but that I think will be the ones that will affect badly the value of Bitcoin.
2311  Economy / Economics / Re: Why all people moan about the price of bitcoin? on: February 16, 2019, 10:40:41 AM
I think it's very natural that everyone complains about the decline in the price of Bitcoin, because so much Bitcoin falls to a very cheap price, so many have suffered huge losses due to this long decline, I hope this year there will be a miracle for Bitcoin.

Well, that will just depend on what you will do in the time that the price dumps. I am ready with the dump for a long time now and this time I am doing fine with my investment and also my profit. The price might not be that reliable now but always remember that Bitcoin has a volatile price, it changes quickly over time and we should use that to our advantage.

2313  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Nobody wins in gambling anyway on: February 14, 2019, 01:46:52 PM
I think yes, nobody wins in gambling.If they do win at some point but again they loses anyhow.I always see many one becoming poor for gambling and that realized me that nobody can wins in gambling.Its not any fact that you are so skilled at gambling because at some point you'll become empty hand anyhow.

It is true that there are a lot of people that lost on gambling but don't forget the people that also won a lot of money out there. There are a lot of gamblers that also won that game and made their lives great through gambling. I know some people that won on a lot of lotteries and started their own businesses because of that. They did not lose on gambling, they use their winnings to make their lives great. That is a great decision for them than to continue gambling, isn't that right?
2314  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling addiction becomes more popular with young people over time on: February 14, 2019, 12:52:34 PM
This is what concerns many people as they can easily get addicted as they are small and might not understand the value of money if they keep losing and keep asking for more from their parents . Also they can start borrowing etc if they want more and  more money if they start liking the gambling .

I think this will be an easy task for the parents if they really love their children. I don't think their parents will just let their children spend the money they are giving to them without any instructions or rules. As a parent I let my children ask for money as long as they are honest to what or where they will be using that money to. If the children will always ask for money on their parents, that is obvious it will be noticed by their parents.
2315  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What Is Your Worst Moment in Gambling? on: February 14, 2019, 12:22:45 PM
Never really had a worst moment because I do not expect to win in gambling. I was young when I tried my first gamble. Money wasn't my priority back then. Gambling was like a game to me and I had fun playing it.

That is really great. Never experiencing gambling for the money is one of the best starters as a gambler. In my first years as a gambler, I immediately experience winning a lot of money and thought that it may be the one that will make my life comfortable but it is not. That is the worst moment that ever happened to me as a gambler, to be addicted to gambling.
2316  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is there any valid reason to continue gambling? on: February 14, 2019, 11:48:08 AM
My valid reason is profit. Do you make profit in gambling? YES, most of the times i do gamble for fun but majorly for profits. Whenever i want to gamble i always consider profits than looses and this has actually helped me.

This is what I am telling to my friends and well, some of the people that might read some of my posts. You may be gambling, or your main reason in your head is to have fun, to pass the time using gambling but still, you are aiming for the great profit, for the money ofc. There is a lot of valid reasons to stop gambling and mostly, that reason is their family. I've heard a lot of reasons saying that they want to stop for their family. They did, though it may be hard, they did stop their addiction. I can still see them gamble, I did stop my addiction to gambling and I am still gambling but I am not like other addicted gamblers that really waste their money in gambling.
2317  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you still continue? on: February 10, 2019, 01:48:59 PM
Many addicts always say "one more bet" until they end up completely broke.  Sometimes you just need to know when to walk away and handles your losses.
high curiosity makes them want to continue the game,
"one more bet" because in the next game will get a jackpot (imagination)

Well no one knows what might happen especially to luck games that entirely depend on the luck of that certain gambler. In our country, the usual games that is being played are cockpit and mostly card games. It also relies on luck but you can also do something using your skill to increase more the probability of you winning.
2318  Economy / Economics / Re: If you had 10000$ on: February 10, 2019, 12:33:38 PM
I will reinvest in some different business to monitize and get return on it.
Well it is your idea and reinvesting is really good but if I got 1000 dollar so will invest all in only one coin which is bitcoin, I will make long term trade because my whole priority will given to the coin which is at low but has high potential as when the market will bounce and prices will increase we will have profit.
I have no problem investing in bitcoin, and I'm also sure of the potential of bitcoin, but you need to invest in a number of other investments also when $ 10k is in your hands, that's a pretty big capital in my opinion, and I will buy some coins with that much capital

It is great that people are still choosing to invest on crypto currencies despite the fact that we are in a trend that is not that good in eyes of some of the good investors. I think I will be making some plans to invest on other assets like the popular metals, Gold. In our country, that money is big enough to make your own place.
2319  Economy / Economics / Re: Low BTC price is good for Bitcoins at the moment. on: February 10, 2019, 11:58:51 AM
yes, now the price of bitcoin is also still low, for me it is also an opportunity for investors to get more profit by buying current prices, and you can hold it back for some time with the increasing increase in the price of bitcoin.

We should really take the opportunity of the price. This is the only way that we can earn woth our investments. If we will not be making any movement or plan, we might regret it in the future when the price pumps so we should man up while the price is low and buy as we can. We will never know what will happen unless we tried something.
2320  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you have a reason to stay? on: February 10, 2019, 11:19:01 AM
We all have a reason that's why we are still using bitcoin because of its advantages that shines than a fiat money.  Bullish and Bearish are reasons why I remain. Bullish isn't always like bearish but it takes a period to replace. Bitcoin will rise and conquer the market again!

I think this depends on that user. There are a lot of uses of Bitcoin for some like gambling currency, payment method, transacting online and stuffs, well usually people use it as an investment and it is a reason to stay. With the price so low now I think people will stay and invest more on crypto currencies especially Bitcoin.
