2341  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is more risky. Sport or casino bets ? on: April 20, 2017, 06:35:31 PM
Gambling us risky, some of the games and strategies have calculated risk but its still risk. For me playing risky is playing with big bets and high odds, in that kind of gambling you risk a lot of money and on high odds you never know when will you win. For me this kind of betting can be applay in sports and in casino, its risky when ever you bet high, everything else is entertainment and when we don't risk too much money its not a big risk.
2342  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I have found a long term and strong dice strategy. on: April 20, 2017, 10:18:28 AM
This is interesting method i hope that you can explain it more.. because i tried many martingale methods and different settings are end up all to lose..
If you continue to play for an extended period of time you will end up losing with this strategy as well.
Be mindful that this strategy was created for roulette, using it for Dice might defeat some of the core characteristics of this method.

Here is a demo of the strategy, real roulette play, with commentary:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0Rt3N7VIBg


One strategy can not work for extended period of time, not cause of the casino it is gambling. There is no team that can win all the time, everyone lose in the end. What is important is to not lose to much in the moment when losing serial comes, and it will come definitely.
Well done for noticing similarities between OP`s strategy and this strategy for roulette. So basically OP didn`t find nothing, he just think that roulette strategy might work on dices, and on long run, I wouldn`t bet on that.
2343  Economy / Speculation / Re: Speculation on the price of BTC if Bitfinex does a Gox on: April 20, 2017, 04:41:29 AM
It will be second time that bitfinex is on a egde. Last time they survived and they regained trust (I really doon't know how) and price dropped around 300 dollars if I remember good. There was big drama and price recovered pretty fast.
It didn't pass too much time and they are in same situation, I don't know what is with people there is good exchanges why people are always choose the most risky one.
2344  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is BTC for you? on: April 19, 2017, 07:32:29 PM
For me bitcoin is currency, a currency that hasn't reached full potential yet. Bitcoin already helped me with my financial situation, and I don't know will I be rich one day from all this, but I'm working and I'm trying many things. Bitcoin is opportunity for many of us to make some earning and if we are smart to make some good investments and profit. With bitcoins everything depends from us.
2345  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: It is not worth it, right? on: April 19, 2017, 04:21:40 PM
OP, and all others, probably don't see gambling as entertainment, they look just how to earn money. For me gambling is not just earning money and making profit. I enjoy in gambling and I can spend hours in playing. For me it's definitely worthy to spend some money for quality gambling night, any win is just plus on all experience.
Like always in this kind of threads more comments are from people who don't gamble, this section is filled with people that hate gambling, what an irony.
2346  Economy / Economics / Re: How bitcoin can be useful in developing nations like the African continent. on: April 19, 2017, 07:25:21 AM
Some of the African countries have very bad economy, with that on my mind I think it would be good for them to start with something new and fresh. Most of the African countries, if not all, are with very corrupted governments, I think using crypto-currencies they can follow the money and everything can be more transparent, and transparency is a pillar of democracy.
I think that Africa have a lot to offer to the world, problem is someone to take money and share it justly. That is the only way for them to get out from the dark, if its possible to somehow end with bad regimes they have for centuries.
2347  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How to make governments accept bitcoin? on: April 18, 2017, 07:49:29 PM
We don`t need to make them do anything, they will do it by them selves. Recent example is Russia, they will legalize bitcoin so they can track every transaction. I think in one point every country will wish to do the same, they like to control things. This can be a good thing for bitcoin, but in same time cause of this many people that use bitcoin will turn to some coin that offers more anonymity then bitcoin.

2348  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin Bank on: April 18, 2017, 09:41:39 AM
If bitcoin bank will issue loans in bitcoins at a favorable interest, then I do not mind using such service.
Just need to very accurately choose the time when to take a loan, and when to give
Maybe it possible, but what was the possible collateral you offer, if the Bitcoin bank give a high amount of loans with fair interest how they can assure that you paid it in time? I don't think so if it is possible for now but we still hoping that it will be happen in the future.

Let's assume that we can take loan in bitcoins from bank, first question is how do you plan to return that and in what time. I don't have salary in bitcoins, so I would need to payback that loan in my currency. With rise of btc price, my monthly rate can be higher each month and that can be real problem. How many of us here can afford loan in bitcoins?
2349  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Avoid Casinos With Max Bet Rules on: April 17, 2017, 01:22:39 PM
Most of casinos have this rule about max bet. I`m sure this rule is here to prevent martingale system, but I also think that max bet policy can prevent bankruptcy of the casino. They preventing some high roller to come and win some insane bet with insane odd`s.
Anyway I don`t care about this policy, I`m far far away from this max bet`s.
2350  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Excuses on: April 17, 2017, 12:02:04 PM
In this topic more comments are from people that do not gamble, then from real gamblers, that is funny.
I don`t gamble with borrowed money, that is a jinx, and its hard to gamble with that money cause you always think about winning and how will you give money back when you win, all debts will be solved, all in all you think about everything except on the game, that leads in disaster. If I have money I gamble, if I`m without money I wait and save until I have enough.
2351  Economy / Economics / Re: I hate Cryptocurrency on: April 17, 2017, 08:28:24 AM
Everyone has their own experience and you have all your freedom to express yourself.
But for me, I will never hate something that gives me a good opportunity to grow my money.
Exactly, yes you can grow your money with cryptocurrency.
You can also lose.


Most people in this space think only about the money and don't remotely care what is best for society. Self respect and dignity is thrown to the side in the pursuit of money from nothing.

Opportunities are always around us, depends from our personality we like something more then other. Instamined is right here, people are running for money and self respect, dignity is thrown on the side, and we can`t do much about it, if you won`t someone else will do it for less money or for free. Freedom of choice, and in that you can hate people cause they chose something (what ever it is), cause not all of us have a right to chose, some are pushed into something.
I hate wars for example, but as we can see war can be very profitable for some countries, corporations, and individuals.
2352  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Your advice needed on: April 16, 2017, 05:36:10 PM
Greetings!

I am creating sites and I am good in Maths. I already have an experience in creating games with HASH SUM verifications (games, where result is predefined and you cannot be cheated).
I have two ideas to create.

I plan to make a lottery game with a possibility to win a Lexus GX 460 and with a clear hash sum verification.

Or I can add a new Space game, where you will be able to upgrade your ship, collect trash from a space and extract some good resources from trash. Also later will be added an ability to fight with other ships and winner will get resources, loser will lose his ship.

What is better to add, how do you think?

Or if you can suggest any other Idea, I will review it and create too.

Building a lottery is one of the wiser way to get money from the people. Don't be offended because it's the general idea that will came up from the mind of the experienced gamblers. How can you 100% prove to all that your lottery is fair or being close to be like that? Erase the thoughts of what I stated and try to catch the gamblers trust which will goes into difficult way.

Also the mentioned game of yours, sometimes that kind of game are waste of time because most of the games like that are being tagged as micro earnings. Maybe you can changed that kind of idea by the gamblers by making that game different from the others. Goodluck.

There is several games like that one in micro earning section, I played two one for satoshis, and other for some alt coin, earning from this two games is lower then on some medium faucet. You need to make really cool game to attract people to play it, if you add some possibility for earning (more then on faucet) that can be a good game, and people will play it, but this requires big investments in beginning.
About lotto I don`t wish to say much cause I don`t like it, I tried with bitcoin also but I didn`t find some pleasure in that. When we talk about real gambling, I can suggest poker, slots, dices, roulette.

-What are your goals with the project ?Just how your coding skills or make some money as well ?
-You certainly have lot of competitors,what makes you different from them ?
-Do you have enough funds for marketing and promoting your projects ?
-Also those random number generating alos are not 100% perfect.It depends on your processor's power anyway.
-Market is saturated with lottery and other games,if you don't have huge investment to back you up.Don't waste your time.

You asked some good questions here, OP should have prepared answers on this questions if he is serious about his project.
2353  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Could LTC go to $1000.00 ? on: April 16, 2017, 12:52:08 PM
"Never" is a long time.  Could litecoin go to $1000 within a year?  Probably not, but crazier, stupider, more unpredictable things have happened in the world of crypto.  So yeah, never say never.  Imagine asking people in 2009 if bitcoin would ever be at $1300.  They might have laughed you out of the nerd fraternity, but here we are in 2017 and we hit that mark.  Litecoin definitely has some advantages over bitcoin, so you just never know.


Agreed, I think that segwit can add value proposition to ltc because of the feature sets that coders can implement if segwit were to be implemented.

I need to repeat part where Pharmacist talking about bitcoin in 2009, wbk would say that bitcoin can worth this much. I will agree that we never know, and Litecoin can make something more, at least we need to be open for this to happen.
Even if Litecoin go x5 this price, that makes Litecoin a good investment at the moment. I have some and I think I will by more, litecoin is better then some more expensive coins, Litecoin deserve to cost more.
2354  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Are signature campaigns really working for gambling sites? on: April 16, 2017, 05:14:34 AM
Betcoin.ag is the best example why signature campgaigns are really working for gambling sites!

They are a publicly proven scam, but with their 70 signature campaign promoters they still can find customers.

Their traffic decreased for 66% recently and their poker traffic has now only 14 players in average, but be rest assured that Barbut will continue to swear for betcoin when they will have only 5 players in average left, as long.... as long as he will get paid.  Cheesy

On the other side, as soon as the 1xBit scam was called out, they instantly stopped their signature campaign!

I wonder what kind of problem do you have, cause what are you doing is not normal! You are not a nice person, and you are spreading false informations, I told you few times that I will not address you ever again but again I let you to pull me in argue.
I`m paid for wearing betcoin.ag signature, I gamble on their site everyday, its my decision I like them and please stop pushing me!!!
You don`t gamble, you don`t like them, then stop talking about them. I wonder who is paying you to annoy people here?
2355  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin's price is so volatile right now! Why should I even hold? on: April 16, 2017, 03:41:20 AM
Bitcoin price is not volatile right now, it's like that since forever. You hold bitcoins cause they can cost more then right now, that is pure profit. Price rises a lot in last year, and its still in that rising trend that's why people invest and hold bitcoins.
If you don't believe in bitcoins and you mind this fluctuations in price you should transfer your bitcoins in gold, then you will have more stable price and you will not ask yourself why yo hold.
2356  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Are signature campaigns really working for gambling sites? on: April 15, 2017, 03:18:20 PM
I really wonder this. I never clicked a signature ad and am wondering if it works for gambling sites. I need to be enlightened in this topic, because it looks like a waste of money to me.

You never clicked, but I visited all casinos from signature campaigns and on some of them I still gambling. Decision to gamble more on some site is made by design, games they offer and other things, all of them are good, its just my taste.
Marketing and investing in marketing is never a waste of time and money, there are so many examples for that. Look really big companies and how much money they give for marketing each year, here we talking about billions on global level.
Edit: For the first time you can click on my signature and come to play poker with me.
2357  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ANY STRATEGY TO WIN IN GAMBLING? on: April 15, 2017, 01:27:28 PM
I really don't think there is any fixed strategy as of such. What one can do is pick a sport I would suggest cricket or football. Since the concept is easy, pick a team, look at the pitch, look at all scenarios. Then think who is stronger and who can win. It's not easy to win every day, but with regular updates and watch on the matches, you could win. But do expect surprises, but it will be fun if you last long. It's the best advice I can give hopefully you shall make some money.

Wonderful, indeed the most profitable and fairly easy is to do a bet in sports such as football, cricket, basketball, etc. Because the sports direct could you watch and see how the results you do sports gambling and also largely did not commit fraud, because the match is very transaparan and the winners are those who are quite exceptional in doing analysis of excellent sports teams


There is no fixed strategy to win in gambling, even in sport betting we see unexpected results almost every week. In betting on stronger you have small odds, so on 1 dollar and odd 1.2 you will get 20 cents, how many games you need to guess accurate to have some decent profit? For this kind of betting on sports you need to have bankroll, and to play progressive, when you lose next week you need to place double bet, or triple and like that every week.
Gambling is a game where winning and losing are equally important, so don`t hope that you will find strategy for long run, point is in mixing strategies and coming back if you lose.
2358  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Number of Bitcoin users. on: April 15, 2017, 08:57:00 AM
In my opinion, the the most accurate (almost) number that we can get is from exchange that asks for ID and probably ATMs (whether the ones that require phone verification or ID).
Blockchain.info claim that they have 10 million users but that's far from being accurate since bots should be taken from consideration, people who lost their wallets and made other accounts etc...

I will not count ATM because there are just some one. Most of region / cities doesn't have any ATM.
Best way is to count user from service like bitstamp/coinbase etc where a lot of people access every day for exchange fiat/crypto.
There is also a wallet count (blockchain.info) but give just a number of wallets and anything related to users.

Actually much more cities doesn`t have ATM then there is citis with ATM. Many people do not exchange bitcoins, and some do that more often then others, so I wouldn`t say that that is the best way for counting bitcoin users also. Many users have couple wallets minimum, so Blockchain is far from accurate.
There is no way for us to calculate how much bitcoin users there are, we can just guess this number, and add on that new members that appear almost every day.
2359  Economy / Speculation / Re: "The price of your bitcoin is 1000 times overvalued" on: April 15, 2017, 12:45:44 AM
I heard many times that bitcoin is one big ponzi scheme, but that was from the people outside bitcoin community. For me this is one more newbie that comes here to talk bad about bitcoin, or digital currencies, and that is opposite from my beliefs. Digital era is knocking on our doors, people are online all the time with little computers in their pockets, sooner or later everything will be digital. Price of bitcoin is not overvalued, its just reflection of the demand and supply, and more people is involved now then ever before.
I don`t agree with this Chinese economist, he have his opinion and I have mine, period.
2360  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Do you see alts have chances against Bitcoins? on: April 14, 2017, 11:33:50 PM
Very nice question you have here. I believe people will be divided on this one, many see bitcoin as a stronghold that no one can conquer. Some things last forever some don't, that is reality, and about bitcoin I think that bitcoin doesn't have decent opponent in any altcoin. That is my opinion in this moment and that can be changed if situation requires.
There is alts that worth attention, and most of us agree that its hard to predict the future, so things can change very fast. For now alts are far away behind bitcoin, buy will it stay like that in next 10 years when people starting to be aware of crypto currencies. Bitcoin opened some new era, that is a fact, but do kings stay kings forever?
