2521  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: People are not only gambling to win but they are buying entertainment on: July 20, 2022, 10:12:30 PM

Many of us here will say that we are gambling for entertainment but this is the same reason why compulsive gamblers put in more money they want to feel high, so if you say I gamble for fun does this mean you admit you are buying entertainment to produce adrenalin and endorphins, so you keep on putting more money to get that feeling regardless if you win or lose.

I do gamble for entertainment. I bet on matches that I watch so that it gives an added incentive and drama to it. Makes the wins a lot more sweeter and the losses a lot more bitter. I'm sure there are a lot of people here who do the same. Always follow the golden rule of gambling. Gamble only with what you can afford to lose. So, I generally don't care about the profits as much as others but it sure is nice to win though Cheesy .
This is what makes gambling so interesting, it can add a lot of fun to something that you already enjoy, after all most of us enjoy watching our favorite sport and root for our favorite team but when you add gambling that is when things get really interesting, because now it's not only about your particular preferences about which team happens to win, now it's a lot more personal because now money is involved.

This makes defeats way harsher but it also makes victory way more sweet, so gambling adds a whole dimension to the games you like watch making them a lot more interesting in the process.
People should be having this kind of treatment or way on believing on what gambling is all about.It do adds the thrill but majority of people do really tolerate their greed once they are winning where they

are already forgetting the true essence on why they do make out some bets or do involved real money on which it is for the sake of fun but turns out that some people do make it as a living instead.

Play for fun and dont go into a certain extent that you are already risking out your finances just for you to play or indulge that leisure that you are seeking into.
It isnt really just right nor really that worth for you to do so.Only spend on the amounts which you can afford to lose and dont go beyond your limit.
2522  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Saves my relatives both of Life, Time and money on: July 20, 2022, 08:59:27 PM
One of my relatives goes to work in Singapore as a remittance fighter to earn some money. He had a habit of gambling before. One day he goes to the casino and gets free food and $10  to go there. She fell into the greed of eating free and some free dollars and started going there regularly. At some point he becomes interested in gambling. And he started gambling regularly and he started losing all the money he earned here. At one point he lost all his money. One day a lottery was arranged in that casino. And he bought a lottery there as his last attempt. And he won that lottery and got 2nd prize. Where there was 1 million usd. But this money brings danger to him at one stage. The other expatriates who were with him wanted to kill him and take his money. Then he realizes this and take the help of the police of Singapore but Carrying $1 Million was high risky and transferring money to his country by international money transfer it was matter of time. so he buy $1 million worth of bitcoin and back to his country Immediately. Bitcoin saves both his time and money. And he was able to back safely to his own country with his money.
Nice initiative i would say on which you could really save up yourself on different hassle and the risk specially you are dealing with a million dollars which lots would really be having that bad intent towards you because money is really just too hot and could easily trigger out those criminal minds once they are really that aware on someone who had been holding those huge funds.
A good thing that he knows bitcoin which he had able to think up directly for some solution on the current problem that he's facing considering that security is indeed at risk on bringing those funds.
but still not that enough for you to get confident because anytime they could abduct you but to know that getting private keys wont be simple but if you are on a situation where
life and death involves then you might really ending up on giving.

I wonder what can bounty manager can bring to the campaign and what if not? Of course they will bring more member but actually how many member, how participant will they bring?
Everything would really be depending on the project itself since they are the ones who do set;

1. Budget
2. What marketing should be done

Managers would really make out adjustment with that and tell up recommendations and suggestions and calculations on how much the team
would really be charged from campaign payment upto his own professional fees on handling the bounty.

I dont know on why it is bothering you since these things could be known in between manager and the project itself.
2524  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you look down on Bushy or undeveloped areas? on: July 19, 2022, 08:59:13 PM
Sometimes we didn't expect this things to come so for sure normally we experience something like this from the past. But what good thing about downplaying a place is we learn something on those areas because at this moment we can take action on un develop areas and make it as part of your investment. For sure we can still see a lot of opportunities since each province or city are improving.

I certainly agree with this. I was once living in an almost underdeveloped province where there was no open opportunity for everyone so I decided to move out to a city where I found my fate. After years of exploring in cities, I went back to visit our relatives in our province and to my surprise, everything has changed and developed. I regret not buying a small property because I underestimated the location. Unexpected things can really happen so we shouldn't underestimate properties or places.
Everything in life is totally unpredictable and there's no way for someone could able to tell on what would happen in the future.Even though it looks bushy or underdeveloped but you cant really able to point out if it does have that future potential to be developed and that land would really valuable.We people could make out certain decisions in life whether we would really be seeing some opportunities or just
simply buying just because you do love to have some properties and lands which would for you to live on on the future or something that you do mind off about being inherited by your children.
2525  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Many people become binance futures full time traders as job on: July 17, 2022, 09:52:59 PM
Binance futures as a job? No way, it is a risky business for traders, taking it as a full-time job can be a dangerous choice for life. Especially leaving your daily job and focusing on futures trading can be emotionally challenging for those who are not pros in this field. Risk and money management are two main keys to controlling trading activity, I doubt new traders with few years of market trading experience will handle it easily. Maybe taking it as part-time job can be good choice if the trader has ability to manage his journey. Just my 2 cents.
Part time job or side income would really fit out into this manner but for main job? You are indeed putting your finances on big risk when you do invest or make capital almost all of your funds and savings
considering that not all the times you would really be ending up on being profitable on the market.Volatility could easily fucked you up and i could also consider that this one is almost similar or close to
gambling i would say considering on the leverage or price movement on futures is something that someone could easily handle or bare it out thats why you should think twice or thrice or many times
before you do put yourself into such condition on where you cant really assure the future of your finances unless if you are really that experienced and been through lots of trading and market conditions
which you could really be having that risk management on peak.
2526  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Investing in Casino tokens such as BFG, OWL or TFS on: July 17, 2022, 08:31:05 PM
<snip>
I think all these three casino tokens are good and are already established good reputation and market. But to choose between the three right now, I think I will not choose the one that has been risen up in value. There could be reasons that it's only a short period of hype, but I believe on other coins that has been down so much right now, I think they will recover soon enough. Not an investment advice.

Yes, why would anyone invest in anyone of them? Why not divide your investment in all of these tokens? This way you will get reduce the risk in case any token/platform does not perform well.

Generally, all of these tokens are good ones as they have a perfect use case as they are the tokens of the gambling platform and people use these tokens to gamble on these sites.
Some of the coins arent really that in line with its company itself yet there are traders which do scalp out with this coins volatility which arent really that connected on whats happening around on the platform which does simply means that it is really truly an independent type of reason on such movement or able to sustain out on a market that do really shows off opposition.

When you do make out decisions on investing with these coins then it is really that depending on you since its your money and if you do see that it is really worth for you to dive in then
its your choice on doing so.

There's nothing on this world could able to predict out on whats ahead specially on things that we do expect for its  value to rise.Diversifying would be a solution
but we know that not all does have the funds on doing so.
2527  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: This clearly damage the gambling. on: July 16, 2022, 11:41:59 PM
I really think this damage the trust in the sports bets , or anything related to the sport gambling, i know a lot can say its a kind of protest but still really unclear.


You can't blame the whole industry for what the small leagues have committed, the story is not complete you did not provide information about those videos and what is it about, this happen in Nigeria, and it's not even a World cup it's not even worth broadcasting that sports betting is damaged because of this, let the organization do an investigation but people will continue to trust the sports betting industry.
On just peeking on match-fixing incidents then we do have a long list.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_match-fixing_incidents

American football
Australian football
Badminton
Baseball
Basketball
Boxing
Cricket
Darts
Esports
Field hockey
Golf
Handball
Motorsport
Snooker
Sumo
Tennis
Volleyball

This isnt something new just for us to say that this would clearly damage gambling.Its been here
and nothing surprises us off.
2528  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: FUD Has Finally Taken Its Toll on Me on: July 16, 2022, 08:13:13 PM
~
I'm beginning to wonder whether Bitcoin has a long-term future, now that much of the world's nations are caught up in this 'climate' hysteria, and want to ban proof-of-work protocols, like Bitcoin, which they claim is harmful to the environment.
 
Looks familiar as we get these FUD whenever there is a market correction, go through the archives in this forum and you will see many RIP eulogy in this forum how BTCitcoin is dead and will never rally again and we see these fear mongers all the time. If you trust the decentralized market there is nothing to worry as it will move on year in and year out even with all these FUD.
Speaking about bitcoin is dead kind of headline or something those claims or sentiments from different gurus and so called professionals
then we could have a good read for some reference on this one.
https://99bitcoins.com/bitcoin-obituaries/

Bitcoin has died 461 times

Then hearing up something like this with these lose of fuds in the market then as an investor or supporter of bitcoin then it would be better if he get used to it because
thats how these things circles around on this forum or entire crypto space specially on a bear market.You would see lots of those scenarios
and events which could potentially make you panic.
2529  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How long do you think the market will take to recover? on: July 15, 2022, 10:58:43 PM
Instead of thinking about when the market will recover, I think it's better if we focus on finding areas to buy. we know previously it took 4 years to recover, but this can not be a benchmark, maybe it will be faster. and in investing the main thing we have to be able to hold on until the bullish season comes, and keep the emotional so that we stay on the right track. no one knows for sure when there will be a reversal for the change of seasons
It should be on this way rather than stressing yourself on when would be the recovery.It would be good if we do mind off on accumulating while prices are cheap and find out potential coins aside from btc

and as long your budget or finances permits you then you could really be that versatile when it comes to investment because you do have the money to spend but of course you shouldnt really be that careless or in rush on making out decisions.Just like what others been saying that market is really just having two movement which is going up or down.
We cant indeed having dumping market like forever but there's really some recovery after crash but it would really be needing some positive sentiment which would be a good catalyst on driving out the market on such trend.
2530  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Threshold of Loss in Gambling on: July 15, 2022, 09:21:01 PM
My question is, can you remember a time when you reached your threshold of loss while gambling?

Sure. For me the threshold is the money I have deposited in my casino account. I have a rule of never adding to the balance during a session. If I lose it all it means the and for that day, maybe for longer, depending on how long it was since the last time I sent money to a casino.

Sometimes I played on a casino account with the money they gave me for free or money I got from a signature campaign. If that went to 0 I'd stop until the next paycheck.
That same goes for me too. If I gamble, I make sure I have my own intended funds for that, and if ever I lose that, that serves only for now. I’ll take my off and leave. I guess the time when you reach the threshold of loss, well maybe if you’re just a disciplined gambler, then you will not chase your losses and stop gambling right away. Otherwise, you will fall into a deep loss especially if you keep biting their offers and free bonuses, you will eventually get rekt in gambling.
They key on here is that you should set out limits and be discplined.Dont really tend to chase up losses because as said that would really make you desperate which it is likely you would really be ending up

on depositing once again and lost it all over which is really a very common scenario to happen and thats why gambling business is profitable because of these type of people.Some are really in control
but majority is really having that impulsive or highly reactive and easily rage out.

Well its a personal kind of perception on gambling because there are some who are good on control and some are not.
2531  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Are NFT drops profitable? on: July 14, 2022, 10:56:32 PM
NFT have gained huge attention during their hype and bull market but in this bearish time, it seems we seeing them down as the entire market has been down as well. And even from that, I'd never see these NFT projects would last for a long time - projects built in hypes couldn't make it, that is really impossible.

Thus, if you are investing them OP, you've to be prepared about losing your money then, or much better not to choose them.
Just as expected on every trend and hype on the market that when bear market comes then everything would be dragged down and even on a hyping market then we know that things that do get much

hype isnt sustainable or something that cant really be seen in terms or utility or potential then i dont really see any projects or trend that would sustain for long term or something which isnt worth
to be included into your portfolio.

Ive seen some sites do give out some free drops of NFT's which i dont see for it to be bad for someone to engage on as long you arent pouring too much money on it
then i do see the risk is way too less for someone to get a hold of.
2532  Economy / Speculation / Re: Do you regret buying before the dip on: July 14, 2022, 09:56:47 PM
We never know whether the current price has dipped or not, if we compare it with ATH that has happened of course we have already gotten a discount of more than 70%, and this fact makes me have to buy bitcoin immediately before it skyrockets again.
Bitcoin is not going to skyrocket sny Time soon because the bearish market is still having long strong effect this time. This is nice time ro buy Bitcoin because we should expect it increment from the year next upper not now Bitcoin still going down couple with the brother Ethereum and othe associates, for me i will buy Bitcoin when the price reached below ten thousand dollars and thirteen thousand but i know that price will take time before it will reach such level because of how people is bumping the market to come up, when you observe cryptocurrency you see that many people is buying because of profit of bullish market
This is really a test of patience for everyone who had been dealing on this market and its true that this isnt something that we do expect that movements will really be on fast pace which some people really

been expecting or anticipating.Whenever you do make out some buy decisions and the price did drop even more then  the feeling of regret and disappointment is really there but if you are really get used to
this market volatility then these movements wont really be an issue for you.

Buy and dont sell on panic then you wont lose something.Its a matter of self discipline and control.
2533  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How Gambling companies can get more uses to deposit. on: July 13, 2022, 11:23:51 PM
This is certainly something that the Gambling companies do have to look into since this will go long way, thus changes needs to be made, What do you think, how important this option is for you?

I believe that the biggest concern of players when betting on an online gambling site is the ease or bureaucracy they will have to face in order to withdraw their winnings.
So, this diversification is very important and beneficial for both the user and the site.
I don't remember when was the last time I cashed out, I usually spend everything, even what I win, making new bets.
But I would give priority to sites that don't require KYC to withdraw and have multiple withdrawal options for when I need it.
Im also having this kind of behavior on which whenever i do make out deposits then i do tend to make use all of those balance and if ever i do win big or small then those amounts would be still be

spent back into the casino yet i've been playing for the sake of entertainment or enjoyment but well we are different when it comes to approach and impression towards site.
Ease of deposits and withdrawals will be one of the things where people would be minding on on where they cant really experience any hassle and headache on doing that.
On the time that they are able to have good experience then that will surely hook up and make them stay.
2534  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bear markets are for building on: July 13, 2022, 10:18:49 PM
The illustration speaks a whole lot. During bull market everything seems green and many misinterpret the moment as time to build whereas building and accumulation is a thing of the bear. Bullish season is a reward season, a compensation season as well  for patience. some times the FOMO push new investors to start building when the bulls have exhausted their grip.

Just like an african proverb says you don't search for a black goat at night. Investment is appreciated when everything seems down
That's how people see the bullish market as a time for everything because the prices are very positive and they even believe that these prices will stay on top and won't fall down anymore. These people might not only be selling their coins, but also be buying new coins. And when the market suddenly crash, they start losing everything. Although people seem so stupid if we think, but i guess that's how they learn and cope up in the crypto market, they always learn it the hard way.
Very wrong kind of belief if you do ask me but sooner or later they would really be realizing with their mistakes because thats not how market works.You'll soon realize when you do lost money on a bear

season or market condition on which you would be seeing your portfolio is dropping on the floor which is a usual or normal concept or movement in this market.We cant really just having that upward
movement forever.Its true that bear markets are the best times for you to get in and not to freak out and crying just because you are on negative.

Once you do get that sufficient experience then you would see these movements to be that a good opportunity for you to get in.
2535  Economy / Economics / Re: How Will Investing Help the Economy of a Country on: July 13, 2022, 09:40:40 PM
Cryptocurrency is not an investment that can generate money as quick as possible as one may think,  it is an investment that normally yield profits that may take sometime,  cryptocurrency is all about hodling to make reasonable profit. A country can't depend on cryptocurrency to make it economy as fast as possible.

For a country economy to be better very fast they need to some other things aside cryptocurrency,  but if a country still invest in cryptocurrency it can help the country to generate more funds in time to come. But not really rely on cryptocurrency revive economy within a short time.
Totally a misconception or thought have in mind about cryptocurrency on minding on about helping in economic thing of a particular country.Yes, it does help some individual on changing up their
lives in terms of finances but it wont totally give out an all out big effect in towards economic situation thats why it shouldnt really be mind off that seriously.

Better to mind your own business and make yourself a better progress towards crypto investment or other forms of investment because on this life this do really talks about survival of the fittest.

The ones who wouldnt really made out well or doing well are the ones who would suffer losses and challenges in life.Am i right?
2536  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Threshold of Loss in Gambling on: July 13, 2022, 08:18:06 PM
I have an experience like many others have got that bad feeling of losing so much. I think around 2 years ago or close to it that I experienced it but in my own case was not a bet money, it was a potential winning that I should have cashed out. I bet on soccer games but with little risk and when I lose it I don't chase back my money as it is dangerous to do because you will keep losing. At times I also take a break if I have made consecutive losses.
If you have succeeded in doing that, then your emotional management has been successful. It is quite difficult to train emotions and mentally, because I myself know that emotional and mental management is almost similar to trading. Those who do not have will continue to lust for profit and return losses, although in the end they will lose. It took me years to learn that. Although gambling is different, emotional control is a major factor. If your emotions cannot be managed then everything will be damaged, it should not happen to gambling or trading.
Emotional management is one of the most crucial thing that should really be learnt off specially when you are dealing with gambling or any other thing which does really need proper control on burst of emotions because with this you could really affect your decisions to be made ahead and we know that decisions on stopping when at lose is very crucial thats why on the time that you do able to stop
mid way without any problems then you had definitely able to achieve that emotional management where people should really be learning since from the start.
Dont make yourself get wrecked by gambling in terms of finances just because you had made out bad decisions due to greed and becoming that impulsive.
2537  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Every "Bitcoin is Dead Headline" is a Buying Opportunity on: July 12, 2022, 11:14:40 PM
It's just to scare many people e and so they can buy cheaper. If I see this type of headline I will simply wait and see the next move the act on it. Also many people need to be told that investment should be only of what they can afford to lose. This is very important to always remember and make use of.

Some people wish to hold thier bitcoin, but whenever they see this kind of news, they always panic and sell because the money they invested is not thier money, some of them borrow money to invest and whenever they see this news, they always sell at lost just to cut their lost. Most people in crypto space don’t really understand what cryptocurrency is all about, they don’t know things they should do and once they shouldn’t do whenever they want to invest, that’s why they panic whenever they see this kind of news.
Thats why its never been recommendable to take some loan or borrowing money for you to invest on crypto.It wont really be giving any guarantees for you to make profits in a short time or if you do

rely into those profits then its not really that a good idea but if you could able to repay those loans/borrowed money in due time the i dont see any problems.Not all the times we do have funds
allocated for something like this whenever you do see opportunities but of course you should be sensible on different factors which are needed to be considered first.

But its true that every headlines like this is totally a good buying opportunity but it wont really be simple on making such decions.

2538  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Axie Infinity's NFT volume is up 205%, the project co-founder says 'nature is he on: July 12, 2022, 10:24:43 PM
P2E game Axie Infinity is back on the menu, as we're seeing a 205% rise in NTF sales volume just since the last week. Axie has generated more than $1.3 million from selling NFTs over the last seven days

One of the factors that contributed to the sudden increase seems to be investors' sudden love for the Axie Land NFTs, which give weekly rewards in Axie's AXS tokens. As of now, more than 90% of the tokens were staked. Jeff Zirlin, the project's co-founder said that "nature was healing", hinting at the project's restoration.
Wont really be a solid thing for us to say that it would make out that recovery even if they do launched out that land-based staking and do generate that kind of revenue on selling nft's but still the overall

game wont really be the same just like into those glory days.Why? as long they wont be able to create a burning mechanism then i dont see any chances of recovery of this game.

For AXS it might show different scenario but still would be on the same story.
2539  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What Type of Gambler Am I? on: July 12, 2022, 09:14:42 PM
52% of the people also selected Casual Social Gamblers in the voting options, which shows that people aren't serious about making money with gambling. I don't know if they have selected the correct option as most of the gamblers want to make money from gambling and they are not for fun/entertainment only.
For all those who have selected "Casual Social Gamblers", I want to ask them a question. Do you feel relaxed even if you lose in gambling? If not, then you do not fall in this category.

Does gambling for fun (and not for money) suggest indifference? It seems to me that no. Obviously if you win it gives you positive emotions and when you lose you get upset. These emotional swings give the final relaxation, everything seems logical to me. Therefore, those who chose this answer are correct even if they are disappointed by losing a bet or two.
We are just humans then those mood swings could really be inevitably felt by anyone who do decide on engaging with gambling whether you are playing for entertainment or for money then it would give out on the same feels and emotions on the time you are winning or losing.Being a certain type of gambler would be definitely be depending on someones perception and treat towards it.
Some do play for the sake of making money and some do play for the sake of entertainment.

But we cant precisely tell that we are just playing for fun because later on you would really be realizing that you are really getting stressed and impulsive whenever you do experience
losses which is normal.
2540  Economy / Speculation / Re: copytrading and futures on: July 12, 2022, 08:11:25 PM
Copy trading is worst because you can’t control your margin as you wish because you are literally someone trading style. It’s a gamble to choose the best trader that will give you a good return since most the trader on copy trading is not a stable trader or rather just placing position for a short term return.

You should learn to trade on your own so that you can manage properly your margin to avoid liquidation.
For those mindset who do love to earn without exerting much effort and time then the primary thing that they would be having on mind is to copy trade because its simple and minding that they
could make profits without much effort but frankly speaking it would be more better if you do learn while you do follow because as mentioned that not all would really be having that kind of
idea on mind that it would be lasting forever or having always that precise trades for long term.

Nothing beats out if you do make out learning on your own or simply trade with your own because you arent really that depending on someone
but rather only depending on your own skills.
