I continue playing with profit only after I achieve my objective. I withdraw my initial money and leave only the winnings to play with. This I do in soccer betting as I usually bet only on soccer. However 99% of the players don't have much discipline.

Even if it may sound strange to you in gambling discipline is much, much needed. I want to win 10-15% in total during the year as no bank or investment program gives you that, but that is just me.

I'm doing this before on dice  I set my limits when I already win ,I withdraw my initial then continues to play as long as I want knowing that I don't lose any. But sometime I still got regret when I know I already reach the amount I don't expect then it will gone because of continues gambling.
2482  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: bitcoin transactions - Slow OR Fast on: December 11, 2016, 09:41:02 PM
bitcoin transaction speed today is very different from the first. Well, this time the speed is somewhat reduced. perhaps it is because more and more users bitcoin.

Bitcoin transactions come through instantly. Not sure why people still mix up transaction speed with the time a transaction needs to get confirmed. The number of users has gone up while the blocks are still capped at 1MB. Pools have to make a decision based on the financial gain. Transactions with the highest fees get included in found blocks, everything else will need to wait for other pools to get picked up.
That's the beauty of the system because if someone needs urgent confirmation or say quick confirmation they can pay a little higher fees than usual and enjoy the luxury of getting confirmed within next block while someone who does not have such urgency can pay the normal fees and get confirmed normally. And guys which other payment method allows you to do so ? (I mean pay less when less need and pay more when need of confirmation is urgent)

Right it can be an advantage that we can be picked first and be accommodate seems like a special treatment to do it we need give extra or higher the fees to be able to get the confirmation we needed ASAP. But still I'm hoping that there'll be no specially treatment we will just need to pay the right amount and be accompanied a accordingly.
2483  Economy / Economics / Re: Why have Bitcoin instead of cash? on: December 11, 2016, 09:24:40 PM
At this moment most of my daily transactions need cash to be carried out, so in my personal case I still prefer to use cash rather than bitcoins. Bitcoin is for ma a long term investment and I prefer to accumulate them when I can get some coins, and spend my existing cash before it lose its value because of its gradual devaluation.
You have to learn more about bitcoin so that you will be able to use bitcoin in your daily life instead of cash. After getting more knowledge about the usage of bitcoin you will find that it is much easy and convenient to use bitcoin for our needs instead of cash.

I don't think it is able to use now in daily needs we still need to withdraw or to do cash out before we can use it for foods and some necessities. Though we can use it now on paying electric and water bills,  ordering online for some stuffs, for eloading and transferring money. There is lots of services bitcoin can offer now so I think soon enough it can be for our daily needs also.
2484  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: In what gambling games are you good at? on: December 11, 2016, 09:17:06 PM
Well most gambling games are dependent on luck rather than skill. But there are a few games that are more skill based like poker, but even for those eventually they depend on luck.

So if you want a skill based game you should play poker cause that is according to me the best for you.
And fortunately to have a best game to me, I do not need any skill nor I do not need any strategy. I am very good with my dicing as I am not doing it for making profit. The dicing is very good for spending your time with some thrills. This is what I'm doing with my dicing and I believe I am good at it.

It was nice to know that you are good on dicing and you don't defend on it for profit. There were times I'd really do dicing to earn but it not leads me on what I expect so I quit that part that making profit on dicing . I just played it once in a while when I have free time and extra btc
2485  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you Still believe in Fiat? on: December 11, 2016, 09:10:27 PM
For as long as the popularity of Bitcoin is not that know to many people, so fiat currency is still very much in use because that is what you or we use in purchase of our day to day needs and also use in paying utility bills because most people believe in physical cash and as you know Bitcoin is digital currency for this reason i still believe in fiat and what ever you ear from bitcoin must be converted real currency.
Yes that is a fact that the number of bitcoin users are not as good, as majority of people do not know about bitcoin. That is the reason there are not sufficient bitcoin acceptance which leads people are still believing into fiats. When bitcoin user base grows, and bitcoin will be accepted everywhere people will forget fiats.

I think it will never be forgotten. As for me I based the value of bitcoin in our fiat, in every transaction or services I did I always do a conversion on what it will be on our currency . Though I'm always hoping that btc can be on used on purchasing everyday needs and can be use anywhere for a hassle free transactions.
2486  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin be used for Good? on: December 11, 2016, 08:55:59 PM
Bitcoin is like cash you know, it can be use in bad or good, because we, the users are the one who is going to decide where to use it, bitcoin doesn't have a choice, obviously, because it can't speak to argue with it's user if he is going to be use in bad things. It is not new in this world that currencies or cryptocurrencies is using in bad things or illegal things like buying guns, drugs and other illegal stuffs online in the dark markets in the deep web.
That's what some people need to understand, Bitcoin is money. The currency was created with a design that allows the user to have freedom of choice, the use of this will depend on the user's awareness. And, obviously, the vast majority of people will not waste money doing stupid things, but like in any economy, there are always people who act in a stupid way.

True. There's always a pro and anti . Some can't be happy for others that they find their ways to put people down so that they will quit bitcoin. We can't really please everybody so better concentrate on what btc can do than those who are against on it.
2487  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What would you do with your winnings? on: December 11, 2016, 08:51:01 PM
I will withdraw my winnings for investing, and trading and left the amount that I played first on my gambling account so that i can play on another day. Then use some of my profit left to buy some stuffs to reward myself if ever because not everyday is a lucky day in gambling. Rewarding myself for a successful profit will boost my spirit and motivate me to win more again on the other day. But i'm always aware that i might lose when bad luck strikes to me.  Grin
2488  Economy / Economics / Re: Best way for steady income on: December 11, 2016, 02:13:37 PM
All you have to have is miner buy a miner and install it at your home and wait until you get the amount you want, but for sure your electric bill will hit high where but then OP wants steady income but without actively doing anything, and I guess mining is for him.

Mining is never a good solution for an steady income because there you will have more headaches than how much you will earn in a month, because the expenses would be even more than what you earn or even if they are not higher but the profit you will get wont be worth the work you will have to do.

True. I stop mining when I'd learn about signature campaigns and when I start having trading transactions. There is no guarantees in mining we can't even predict how much our earning will be. Unlike in investing,trading and campaigning in trusted sites will surely earn we just need to put more effort and patience.
2489  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I have a huge gambling problem, any advice on overcoming? on: December 11, 2016, 12:58:13 PM
I think you should stop betting on prime dice and such like bookies, why not try sports betting?

As long as you're in gambling either in sports betting or any other gambling then it is difficult to come out of it and it will not take much time to change your mind and go back to those old sites start gambling again. If you want to stop gambling then first try to avoid any kind of gambling completely and start spending more time with family and friends then surely can come out of this habit.

Right better focus on things that will make you forget gambling. For example focus on signature campaigns and trading in this services you'll surely gain and no addiction might happen. Better research the sites that are reliable and with lots of offer.
2490  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is the best source of bitcoin nowadays? on: December 11, 2016, 04:33:47 AM
My source of bitcoin right now is signature campaign and doing some Trading. I earned most of my bitcoin in doing signature campaign weekly and I also earn some in Trading sometimes when I have buyers. Sometimes I also do faucet if I don't have anything to do and just having a pastime. There are a lots of way on how to earn bitcoin like Investing on HYIP sites but I don't do that because being scammed is really the worst thing that can happen to you in the bitcoin world.

Yea . We should really be considerate on choosing whom we trust our bitcoin. In trading it is hard to negotiate into other parties whom to send first,some doesn't want the same time option so it is better to see trust record of the user same with in investing we need to do research on the sites to invest. The really best way is to choose the signature campaigns who offers best.
2491  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is bitcoin being used for illegal activities on: December 11, 2016, 01:36:17 AM
bitcoin isnt the problem. people are the problem.
as far as i'm ware, people use everything to pay for drugs... everything.

if they have fiat money, it will be fiat money... if they have bitcoin, well, it will be bitcoin.
if they dont have fiat nor bitcoin, they will pay with services, any of their things(bike, tv, etc ) or maybe even stolen things.

Right no matter how the government will do as long as their people are still on committing illegal transactions or bad things no mayter how they ban bitcoin,gambling or drugs people who didnt want to join their campaign or laws will always find their to do wrong doings. So better have a program for rhem to realize or their wrong doings. Its not the currency or the sites that needs to be ban.
2492  Economy / Economics / Re: Best way for steady income on: December 10, 2016, 07:42:33 AM
Signature campaign is the best way for steady income so far. Because only signcamp that can earn bitcoin up to 0.05 per week and even more. Other service also good, but you need an expert skills to earn steady income for that.

This is right. Looking for a fair-paiding signature campaigns provide a steady income. It will also helps us to learn new and more knowledges while earning. We can learn the investing sites that are reliable and really helpful. You can also do translating and investing just make sure you did your research before entering in any methods.
2493  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Worst mistake in gambling on: December 10, 2016, 07:29:48 AM
the worst mistake ive done in playing gambling when ive bet all of my bitcoins with a low chance of winning i dont know what comes on my mind why i did that but im sure its because of the prizepool that i could get now im suffering and regreting that ive done wish icould get back again my bitcoin and playsafe for now.
people always learn from their mistakes, same is the case with me. i also lost my all money in gambling for so many times, but now i have fixed a limit for gambling and i play gambling tell that point and never try to exceed that point. through this way i have minimize my risk of losing all my money in one time.

Im also doing that plan , before playing I set my range of values that I can win or lose. In this way I'll be able to know when is the time I need to stop. Though there are times still that I did'nt follow it  doing a another try hoping that somehow it may win. But I learned my lesson now . Why set own goals and not follow it. So I really think setting limits is the key on continuing gambling.
2494  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Dice sites with highest speed on: December 06, 2016, 06:50:18 AM
The fastest dice I encounterd before was fastdice where I can get as much as 20+ bets per second but they no longer exist now. I think bitsler the only other dice site I know that you can changethe betting speed. You might want to try bitdice.me also. Currently there has been a lot of promo going on. Speed is quite good not that fast but can be a good addition to a list of your dice sites.


I agree that bitsler has a feature of fast betting like fast dice, They are actually the fastest dice site that i played ATM. But the speed is always depends on the speed of your internet connection, The Dice site fast feature is useless on turtle net. Just always keep monitoring your bets when you are using fast roll feature because it might lose you all your funds in the game when bad luck strikes
2495  Local / Pamilihan / Re: I am putting a lending business in the Filipino community here @ BTCTALK on: December 05, 2016, 09:41:51 AM
Ask this question: How much is the red tag worth?

To some people, it's not worth much, they can always create or buy another account.

If I were to offer loans, I would ask for NBI Clearance. (and a whole bunch of other identification / documents.) You know how it is having lent in the physical world.
I understand what you are trying to imply but this small amount is not worth requiring them to present a valid document to show their personal information. I would not even show my identity here if you will give me Php 5,000...

And since the collateral is not that good to force a borrower to pay, maybe I will only extend loan to those borrower who has a co-maker with a good standing in the community and also the capacity to pay is necessary as well.

If this certain person cannot pay, then I have to red tag as well the co-maker if he cannot pay also.

I was thinking of requiring at least 1 co-maker for smaller loan and 2 or more for a higher one. I guess that would be a great method.

Like in real world lending, there's a group liability, so I might as well do that here. I don't know the concrete procedure yet, I have to study it carefully, hence your suggestion are very welcome and appreciated.

So just put above your OP that this is just a micro loan. NSO certifide birth certificate is enough for identity confirmation without taking too much time. Or else selfie with their bitcoin name tag is good too. But you need first clear your reputation before start business or made new account for it

Do you check the capacity of your PSU? I mean is the power of PSU is sufficient to support your video card because i faced that same issue before and i found out that my PSU is failing to supply electricity to my GPU, But if you have the right PSU, Maybe check the cable and try using other cable, That was the two only troubleshooting that i know for that problem, Can you please provide the actual picture of your connection on GPU.
2497  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] ICONOMI - Fund Management Platform on: December 05, 2016, 09:03:09 AM
Devs are not motivated to reach to Bitfinex, Poloniex, Bittrex to list ICN because they're afraid it will pump & dump too soon, before their 6-months lockup period is over.

Putting blame on exchanges is just way of forcing that same 6-month lockup period on us investors, in a quiet & indirect manner.

Also, that 6-month lockup period, is just the minimum they want to hold ICN off the large exchanges... they've got plenty of reserves ($10.5m to be exact), so they have no problem waiting, unless they're pressured with legal action by the community to stop hiding behind NDAs.

LOL. I think you are not familiar on what ICN really plans for the project. They are not afraid for the ICN price pump and dump because it is just happening right now, See for yourself on kraken. ICN devs are not focus on the exchange because that is not the essence of ICONOMI, But i will gave you a few heads up. They are planning to release their own trading platform so that the ICN investors can sell directly their ICN shares on the Iconomi site. Don't focus on exchanged, just wait for the dividends if you really want to enjoy the benefits of iconomi.
2498  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can I post refferal link of hot game here? on: December 05, 2016, 07:53:17 AM
Good practice is sending referral links in PM to ONLY those who are interested on your momentary benefits, please note NOT to everyone.
This is the least method you can try , but overusing PM to all member with your ref link leads you into perma-ban . Don't use this method on the first place

That's why he said above that send it only in PM for those users that want to try it,  Users that just abuse PM will get perma ban but if it's been requested to him, There is no reason to ban. IMhO ,PM method is the usual and safe way to share referral link, This is legit but just make sure that you will invite first the person to try it and wait him to voluntarily it to you.  Roll Eyes
2499  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin encourage spending and not hoarding on: December 05, 2016, 07:47:52 AM
If I understand this correctly, do you mean people should spend and not hoard ? That is true, but there aren't a lot of opportunities to spend bitcoin. Most of the people who I know into bitcoin are just using it for gambling or an investment.

As for value, the more the value rises the more people usually hold their coin.

I don't think that holding bitcoin on wallet is hoarding. because there is a huge volume of btc circulating on the market and i'm sure no one can hoard btc because it's volume is always increasing everyday. This will just possible if the difficulty of the blocks to mine will took too long that can cover the everyday demands of the user of btc. But for now, Hoarding is impossible and saving bitcoin is the best option better than spend it now so that you can enjoy the huge price of it in next year.
2500  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: what is the most recommanded wallet having fastest confirmation time? on: December 05, 2016, 05:10:43 AM
i think all wallet has the same speed because it is just depends on how much transaction fee you put so that your transaction will be on high priority, But based on my observation, If the both user have same wallet and they are going to transfer funds, It will take just a second to become successful the transaction. I recommend blockchain if you want a secure wallet addy but if you want a no transaction fee wallet, Just go for the coins.ph. Goodluck
