Replan I'd say. There isn't much question there. Sides, all the choices are actually byproducts of re-planning in the end. In case such disappointment did occur, I'd just depend my actions on the current state of events not only of the market but also the community around it. You never know, governments and countries might initiate a total ban over BTC or any other crypto for that matter, I'd have no choice but to give up on it and turn a new leaf right?
2342  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which game is most fair in Online Casino. on: December 21, 2019, 02:36:33 PM
I mean, is there even a casino game that isn't fair? Like it's pretty much a matter of perspective at this point. If you think Player against AI is not fair, then it isn't, but most probably it is, you just don't understand how the logic and the system works. If Player vs Player then I have no doubt you'd just say that the other guy was luckier than you... but that's what makes it fair. Luck. Literally every gambling game there is could be won just because you're lucky, and there's literally nothing you can do about it.
2343  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: two gambling games that are players favorite on: December 21, 2019, 01:23:17 PM
Dice indeed. It's easy, not much technicalities, plus you can play it a lot of times in a single day very quickly. As for card games, since OP didn't specify one, I'd give mine as Blackjack. pretty fun game. Even though you just sit there and pray that your guess is right, it's kinda fun using my brain cells even though I know it's completely useless. Other than those, I'd say that roulette could be pretty fun as well. It's kinda like dice but with a bit of twist in it. Although it is a lot harder to win in roulette than dice.

Well I hope so. But in the end, If DEX were the ones to remain, people need to stop scamming and lying to each other by the end of it. Follow the rules set. CEX are made and are more used by DEX because of its security. We wanted to use DEX for our anonymity, but it lacked the security of how CEX does it, and CEX lacks the anonymity we need. No exchange so far has met with both conditions users want, sadly enough, and I really doubt DEX would dominate the market by the end.

It's not a matter of if Users want it or not. It's a matter of if Users actually USE it or not, like with how CEX is the one that is mostly used. People whine, they don't want KYC, but they still use it, right?
2345  Economy / Speculation / Re: The real reason BTC price has dropped on: December 20, 2019, 01:30:56 PM
BTC supplier? I'm pretty sure most of the coins are held by traders at this point in time. And miners have no choice but to adapt to how the coins are currently priced by the market. It's not like, it's a simple buy and sell concept. Traders don't only buy, they buy and resell, and that's why the market has developed as such today. Sides, if only miners/suppliers held the mantle to putting up the price of BTC, heck they'd be so overpriced by now.

Sides, not gonna lie, I'd rather choose to buy 0's and 1's than paper money. Paper money are made using natural resources. 0's and 1's on the other hand? Quite free iirc.
2346  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is Bitcoin a Good Investment? Does Hodl Work? on: December 20, 2019, 11:30:57 AM
Timing is also crucial, by ignoring the two last scenarios that are based on pure luck
This is literally the answer to Does Hodl work. I mean, if you were to invest on BTC right now, Timing would be very crucial in terms of determining whether you profit or not, since Having a period where BTC is down in the dumps and cashing out then would go counter the idea of profiteering out of Hodling BTC. Now if BTC actually died off 5 years prior from now, and said trader invests now, then pretty much, everything is lost. His timing was pretty bad and probably just joined crypto market cause of the hype train.
2347  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who wins and What next step? on: December 20, 2019, 10:39:56 AM
Uhh, lose or win casino always wins. Ngl. Like, it losses once in a blue moon, but really, casinos were made so that they can suck off of their users. Also, logically speaking, I doubt you could predict results from the situations provided. It is still a 50/50 and either way, Person X wins if he wins that $700 bet then hes pretty much happy same when person Y wins. But when they both lose, only Person X is on the disadvantageous side since he pretty much lost everything while Person Y lost what he could've since he won more than $700 already. Losing it isn't gonna impact his original funds in any other way.
2348  Economy / Economics / Re: Question about MarketCap and Cashing Out on: December 19, 2019, 04:05:19 PM
Not really I'd suppose. It was a personal transaction where records were only saved towards the both of you, so I suppose not? It's like how A meetup is different from buying it online. Sides, with the peer to peer transaction right there, Price could be freely changed depending on the seller themselves, so let's say BTC is at $100k and Seller decided to sell at $50k. If transac was a success, I doubt you could say that BTC dropped to $50k there and then, after all, only you two were involved and the money was sent directly to the seller. It's trading, but from human to human, not from market to human.
2349  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Buying bitcoin and several altcoins on: December 19, 2019, 03:25:54 PM
Go to market place or service announcements and tell there that you're buying BTC. Also, specify what altcoin your buying, pretty hard to guess from your post ngl. Also just like what the other guy said, use escrow. Otherwise, I think no one is gonna have the guts to trade with you. Especially since your account is at the newbie level so far, no offense intended but that's just how it goes.

Good decision to try here instead of telegram. Pretty sure most of the people you'd speak with there actually offers scams instead of transactions lmao.
2350  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Trump Writes Pelosi An Open 6 Page Letter For Historical Purposes on: December 19, 2019, 02:43:45 PM
If I didn't know what Trump really did before as such, I'd actually believe this. It's pretty convincing and factual enough, except for the middle bottom part where it became pretty much just a pit for pity or something similar which I don't know how to describe anymore, and long story short, guilt trip, I guess? Sadly enough, all of his claims are for the recent times and since the party for his Impeachment has been trying for so long, I doubt they'd let Trump actually get away with such a simple letter overtaking everything they bloody did for the past few years.

Still, It's a pretty much mayhem right now, I just wonder how the development after the Impeachment would occur. Curious to how the future plays out, since the drama is pretty big and all in there.
2351  Economy / Speculation / Re: December’s Significance for Bitcoin: All-Time Highs and Bearish Bottoms on: December 19, 2019, 12:47:51 PM
Well december is the end of the year after all. We can actually say it's like a moving phase for BTC, one that can actually be considered quite big for it. At the moment, BTC has pumped to 7k, turning its back from the bears of 6.6k. However, it is only the half of the month. The end season still hasn't really sinked it, so yea, anything could really happen. But I assume BTC would actually continue like this, playing with the bears, and only till next year, would it actually fight back properly since it's halving is already just by the corner.
2352  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [What IF] Part 9 on: December 19, 2019, 09:38:07 AM
I'd spend it, use it on my enjoyment aka gambling. Hell why not right? Money IS supposed to be spent after all. But I'd only gamble the amount within my limits. Even if it wasn't originally mine, if Imagine I only gamble around 50$ per entry, I'd only gamble 50$ (If ever he gave me more then I'd keep it for another day). Plus, the guy might actually be looking for someone to play with. Might as well join him than run away after being given money right? At the very least, he knows where the money went.
2353  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin dips below $6600 ,contract trading, the best way to speculation??? on: December 18, 2019, 03:05:05 PM
If you're familiar with how leveraging works, feel free to do so. They have a lot of space to actually profit right now, with how BTC goes down ONLY IF, BTC would actually go up well enough. But well, we all know it would so eh. Entering at this point could be a profit from them, but the same goes for normal traders, but at the same time, the risks are also larger for them. And besides, looking for the bottom at this point is the goal for traders right now, so entering is entirely up to traders themselves.
Leveraging always gives out profit if predictions are made correctly, just like how normal trading works, but with just more possible returns and risks involved.
2354  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Stop Loss, A life saver or a evil? on: December 18, 2019, 01:55:40 PM
Here's the thing. You don't blame stop loss for stopping you from earning a profit, you thank it cause it prevented a loss for you. That's it. The only reason stop loss prevented you from earning a profit was because your prediction was bad. Simply as that. Listen here, Stop loss is a system. A bot so to speak. It has no mind, no intelligence or any of the sort. YOU order it what it needs to do and that's it. You don't blame a friggin light bulb for providing light now do you? If any one is to blame, it is you yourself. Because you told the stop loss what it needs to do, nothing else is to blame.
2355  Economy / Speculation / Re: Happy "to the Moon" annual on: December 18, 2019, 01:03:53 PM
It could happen, and most believe so. But honestly, no one really knows how it would even happen. It just happens whenever it wants. I'd be lying if I didn't believe that BTC is going to at some point this month or the next start going to the moon, but it really is quite difficult since a lot of attention is at BTC right now compared to then.
is this a sign that Bitcoin is ready for more than $ 19,000 ?, your statement makes me confused, there is no analysis that you made, I hope you also use indicators and so everyone knows
It isn't really a sign. More like OP is just reminding others of what happened last time halving was near and last time BTC reached to the moon. Good ol days, just hope it could happen this year, or at least even a bit of it.
2356  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Questions on Trading and fees etc on: December 18, 2019, 12:07:28 PM
Either find another exchange with relatively lower transaction fees, or just p2p exchange, which is free(depends if you use escrow). It also depends how you buy BTC. Generally, fees are higher when you use debit/credit cards to buy them, and most exchanges adopt it. Plus, if you're using an exchange from a foreign country, that could also result in additional transaction fees. Most traders also study the spreads of the coins they are currently trading in plus limiting orders (but doesn't guarantee the transaction would continue), they could pretty much bypass a lot of the transac or at least lower those that are needed.
2357  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC Price Selling on: December 18, 2019, 11:23:43 AM
Nothing new here. Nothing different from the norm tbh. BTC broke down to 7k, and fear spread towards most of the traders, which resulted in another drop towards 6.6k which is the current price right now. Also, no one wanted to break through the current price, and most traders are actually waiting for BTC to go lower and hit the most bottom it could actually get. Once the bottom breaks out though, BTC would probably skyrocket in price and traders would then proceed to buy continuously. That, or a breakout doesn't happen and BTC continuous to dump down, but I hope for the former to happen.
2358  Economy / Economics / Re: Crypto vs stock markets on: December 17, 2019, 04:03:20 PM
Right now? Crypto. Crypto is booming bro like literally booming so bad. Crypto tops off as the highest return in the past ten years against apple and amazon, which I really think is stupid in comparing btw since BTC literally spawned 10 years ago and where Apple and Amazon was founded in the 1900's, just looking at the price difference of the market then and now is enough to give reason why the comparison is unfair, but that's not my point.

Crypto has a huge investment of return as of 2019, which amounts to $2.3 Billion. The others only stand to not even 10% of what bitcoin achieved. That already says enough as to what is actually better right now to invest in. Not saying that stocks isn't a good way to profit, just that you could profit more in Crypto in the past, since it literally was unknown. Stocks on the other hand, require the company to actually boom out, with a never before seen type of product before it could achieve a boom in its price.
2359  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why didn't Bakkt launch bring $25000 on the table? on: December 17, 2019, 03:01:19 PM
Bakkt spiked BTC only because of the hyped it brought, which quickly died down, like super fast. Especially when it launched and it did absolutely nothing to pump the BTC market. Now, Bakkt reaches new ATH in their volumes and is affecting the market, though the effect is a bit on the low side. Bakkt couldn't bring the $25k simply because... It wasn't supposed to bring it. Or rather, it couldn't. It didn't have the power nor strategy to push the market to ATH of BTC. Bakkt is on the right track, but don't expect and pumps because of it.
2360  Economy / Economics / Re: bitcoin might be over but blockchain will live on: December 17, 2019, 01:26:39 PM
It was not the intention to show that bitcoin has major flaws. Sorry on that.
It actually has. But the continuous development and changes made by the community to let it grow addressed those flaws, and that's why we are here, right now, with BTC standing at thousands of dollars per coin. But well, lets move on to blockchain which is in all honesty, a system that isn't much noticed because BTC took up majority of the popularity. Blockchain technology seems like it could provide a whole new world to how transactions work, but only a few companies have started in its development towards it. Just past 2 weeks ago or so, China declared it's seriousness in adapting the blockchain technology and are fully focusing on its development, which I fully agree on.
