He propagates his ideas or just wants to make a high-rise, raise reviews and earn even this. Do not pay attention to such people. Judging by the fact that you wrote about this post, you very much offended it

But even he posted this here in the forum, it is already in the television, it is a news and people would already view that interview and people or viewers will believe that it is true since he is there. Even if we know that it is false, what can we do now? It is already viewed by a lot of people and instead of saying this to us, post this somewhere that can be seen by a lot of people that is believing that news so they will know.

Don't think too much about it. you only should wait patiently for a while, and the price of Bitcoin will rise again soon.


This might happen, this might not. We don't know what may happen in the future, all we know is that there is a that possibility of Bitcoin leaping to great price heights. For me, Bitcoin will still pump, we don't need to get upset to it's every movement since as an investor of a volatile crypto currency, this is always a possibility so we really need to be careful.
2563  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: You cannot win in gambling on: November 16, 2018, 11:57:20 PM
Now I am not an expert in gambling but this day was a really eye opener for me, you can never win in gambling. Imagine when you can't win in lotto , soccer betting or whatever you call it, you don't have a chance in slots.
I'm not an expert in gambling too but saying that you can never win in gambling is just bullshit. Maybe you are just saying this because you can't accept your lost. If winning in gambling is impossible then why are many people still gambling right now??

I disagree with you. You can win in gambling. You just need the right ingredients to win like luck, strategy, discipline, etc.
Gambling is about winning or losing, if you are not ready to lose don't approach gambling. In gambling, I am personally guided only by luck.

To my mind, gambling is something very vague, losing is mainly based on the luck factor like the lottery, the odds are enormous. So be alert and plan if you want to succeed with gambling, you can lose all your possessions such as home, car, family if you invest too much in the gambling.

That is the bad thing about gambling. Even if you have a plan laid out for every time you gamble, most of the time it is not being followed since we are always being controlled by our greed, our greed to win a lot of money. We must not always want to be successful in gambling, instead of focusing on gambling, focus on something you know you will be successful in the future.

No one talks here about Carmelo Anthony parting ways with Houston Rockets.

http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/25287539/carmelo-anthony-part-ways-rockets-playing-10-games
http://www.nba.com/article/2018/11/15/carmelo-anthony-part-ways-houston-rockets

Does anyone have an idea on where he's going to transfer after he's eligible to sign for a new contract with another team?
That player has a curse (kidding). Anyway, its a good move for the rockets management to trade Anthony to another team. Now the question is who will get him. Based on his performance this season, its obvious thay he didnt help the Rockets but he is a burden to them.
When they get rid of Carmelo they are now in a winning streak, in fact they beat the warriors today.
Melo needs to be in a worst team like the Suns so there is nothing to blame anymore.

Speaking of blaming, ever read or heard about the statement Erik Spoelstra made to Lebron James? He is praising Lebron's previous coach Dwane Casey and told Dwane did nothing wrong but because of Lebron, a lot of people were fired including Dwane. Do you agree with this? I mean I think Dwane is a great coach but do we really need to blame Lebron? Is this really Lebron's fault?

Lakers won again btw, they are 4-0 on their last 4 games and I know it sounds crazy but I think Chandler has a lot to do with it. Bigs just destroyed Lakers but now they have at least have a big body down there.
The Lakers has not a lost a game since the arrival of Chandler and it seems that he is a lucky charm for L.A  Smiley. Chandler though not so young but still very capable of manning the center and provide an intimidating presence and it has something to do with that win for the Lakers. We can't deny the fact that before the arrival of Chandler, the Lakers lack the bigs for defense purposes in close games. 

That is the spot that they lack in, defense. That is the reason they are needing the man like Chandler. He is the one needed in the team and we can see  the result of him being in that team. I am not saying that Lebron James and his teammates suck at defense, they don't suck in defensebut they are lacking more defense the reason he is a great help to them.
2566  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: how long you can stay without gambling? on: November 15, 2018, 10:14:14 AM
Every week or even everyday is fine as long as you stay on your own limit on each play. It is better than you play once a month or even once a year but you play over your own limit. They key is your own limit and yourself, no matter how often you play, as long as you stays on your limit then it wont be bad thing for you.


But it is really hard. Putting a limit to yourself means that you are being conscious of your self getting sucked in on gambling and you need to stop yourself before something happen bad. But when you are already having the interest on gambling, even if you put a limit, it is still hard to get out of casinos. I think it is really best to get a help even if you think that it is not that bad. It is better if you get a help earlier.
2567  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: The market is looking all red once again on: November 15, 2018, 12:02:01 AM
Expecting a market bullish run after the bearish market, hopeful that this is the last market correction, no need to panic  sure the future which is near will tend to compensate for the bearish market we have experience since the year 2018 began

Been expecting the same since this is the month when the price is usually increasing or pumping but it is not happening now so I think we should not compare the price change this time. Instead of panicking, I think we should take this as an advantage to our investments and buy now while the price is low. When the price pumps, it will be a good and great investment.
2568  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What to do with your 13 bitcoins on: November 14, 2018, 03:33:15 PM
I will keep my 13 bitcoin by myself. Unless the price of my coin is increased. Which will cause me good profit from my coin.

Everyone will do different things to that 13 Bitcoins since in our country, the value of that Bitcoins is great. A million is enough to build a house, start a small business, a lot of things can be done to that but the only problem is that it is Bitcoin. It is not that popular in our country and selling them for Fiat is hard. I guess I will just use that to invest on good projects that will also give me profit in time.
2569  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin become the universal currency of the world? What is the reason? on: November 14, 2018, 02:44:36 PM
I think in the future there is a possibility that bitcoin will become a global currency, more and more people will know and have bitcoin and the more popular in the future it will be possible to use bitcoin as a global currency.

I don't think so. A lot of people are already using crypto currencies especially Bitcoin and we can see that on its price. With a lot of demand, the price rises and if we will be comparing the price of Bitcoin in the past to this day, we can see the huge difference of them. Even a lot of them use Bitcoin, it will never be a universal currency. It might be legalize in a lot of countries but it will just stay at that level.
2570  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Need bitcoin control? on: November 14, 2018, 01:42:52 PM
It is quite difficult to control the bitcoin of the Government because bitcoin is decentralized and its users are anonymous so it can not control bitcoin literally.

What did you say? Did I just read it right? "Bitcoin of the Government?" and you also said it is a decentralized crypto currency, that is ironic in every way I look at it man. Bitcoin is not Government's property not being controlled by them, it is a decentralized crypto currency and no one controls or owns them. The only reason why Bitcoin is having a price change is because of its decentralization.
2571  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Manny Pacquaio vs. Adrien Broner on: November 14, 2018, 12:39:55 PM
Although not young anymore, I think Manny Pacquiao is still a favorite to win matches. He is a professional boxer full of experience.

Those two are great players and they are professionals obviously. Manny Pacquiao has a lot of experience as a boxer and it is the same for Adrien Broner as he also has a lot of games in his record. Manny might be the favorite but anything can happen and Adrien might win though my bet is on Manny Pacquiao. Been betting for Pacquiao since his rival fight with Morales.
2572  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: You cannot win in gambling on: November 14, 2018, 10:00:45 AM
Well that is not earning from gambling or betting, that is just taking advantage of the referrals. That is your hars work and not your luck on gambling. In terms of gbling, yes you can win but the longer time you are gambling, the higher the possibility of you losing a lot of money. That is just how risky gambling is so better not be driven by your feelings or emotions since it will really cost you a lot of money.
The longer you play in gambling, the more you are losing the money. Try to monitor your gambling transactions and you will see their the volume of transactions you are losing compare to those winning transactions, and sometime you lose big money compare to your small profit.
That is certain since even the chance or probability of winning is 50%, it is not really that percentage. Also, even if we monitor our gambling transactions or our gambling expenses, it will still be hard since deep inside us, we will still have that thought of betting some of them. What you will be thinking that time is that if you win, the lost money will be gotten back on you and most of the time, it don't happen.


But then again, you are not earning your money through gambling or taking risk of your money but you are just taking advantage of the fact that these people you invited wanted to gamble.

We've encountered a 16th Century Mathematician in our class in the past, I can't recall his name but searching the internet, this guy shows, Gerolamo Cardano. Not sure if that is the guy but all I know is that he is a 16th Century Mathematician. I am saying this not because I am believing the story but maybe because, I think Mathematics can really defeat the probability, it may also go beyond destiny itself.

Well, he is not really a 16th century mathematician but a Renaissance Mathematician, obviously that is a History of Math Subject. It is really amazing how he can apply that to gambling in that time but in our time, it is hard. Most of the games will not depend on the probability but on the luck of that certain gambler.
2573  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does hard work in gambling count? on: November 13, 2018, 11:26:20 AM
well, gambling envolves so many games that it is impossible to answer this question...
If the game is run by pure chance, it will be difficult to have any results by working hard...
I am not a gambling person, but a friend of mine has dedicated himself to learn and improve his poker game with good success... but poker has a great deal of math and probability... not only chance...
cheers and good luck on your gambling  Grin
Some games do use pure chance or luck just to win, like lotto, plinko, dice and so on. how strong you try and make a strategy, it won't change the chance in your win but there are some games in gambling that use strategies and your intelligence in playing like poker. your hard work might change the chance to win
I don't usually focus on that kind of games as I know my chances is very less and I will loss in the long run.
There are skilled based games, if I aim to become a successful sports gambler in the future, I will focus my time on it but of course with limitation.

We can't really say completely that we can be a successful gambler since there are a lot of times that people who are aiming for these position that flops down, most of them regretting that they've even gamble. Gambling is a good source of income, it is efficient and don't require any energy just skill, knowledge, skill and especially luck but we all know how low the percentage of winning here right? Better keep myself from these games since I can't risk my money on luck-based games, better work on my investing and trading skills.
2574  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How to earn bitcoin on blockchain games? on: November 09, 2018, 03:54:13 PM
You can normally earn only satoshi but If you play all the time like me Grin it can be a very good bonus.
Do you think spending all your time on it and getting small bonuses is worth it? Calculate time if you have a steady job, make sure you can make more money than you do with those games. Look for other forms because these headlines are idiotic.

if you like games and it's interesting to you can earn, it's like all the games on your mobile phone - we all play them

I am not being negative here but those Satoshis can't be that worthy if you are not that patient to play them for a long time since we all know how small numbers they are giving to their players. I'll just spend my time on another job or investment rather than playing there, but if that game is really interesting, and well, if it if the genre that I love, I will also play it but I don't think I would be able to keep that in a long time.
2575  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is not to banned or rejected on: November 09, 2018, 02:23:05 PM
not all countries prohibit bitcoin, many countries have legalized bitcoin in their countries, and I hope bitcoin is not banned in all countries because bitcoin is very helpful to the economy of its users, even though bitcoin is at risk of being misused, but actually bitcoin is much more useful if used positively.

It is true that it can help other people to earn some money but it is not that easy since to earn a profit out of these crypto currencies,  you should be able to have virtue of being patient. If you are not patient enough, you will not be able to earn money in the future. If the government banned them, I don't have any thing to object there since it is their decision, not mine.
2576  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you find Success in Gambling? on: November 09, 2018, 12:44:58 PM
no, I actually lose more than get a profit from gambling. the only thing that is obtained is only courage that can be used when investing in other assets, and also new friends in the same field.
That is how gambling works. They will make you win but after that it will be a series of losses. If you gamble, it looks like they are handling your emotions. I don't see any gambler that became successful with gambling as his/her main source of income. Success in gambling is very hard but I'm not saying its impossible. I only say "its very hard".
Its very hard because you only use luck as to the main aspect of generating win in gambling, and not everyone has luck. and will you depend on luck to be successful? of course not right? so don't ever have a goal to be successful in gambling, because it will only ruin your life #imo

For me, it is not bad to depend on luck but we should be able to use it right since there are a lot of times that luck play a great or important role in our lives especially if we are talking about money and career. Also, there are a lot of successful gamblers out there and some of them even are celebrities now since they used gambling as their job or their source of income.
2577  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: how governments can regulate digital currencies? on: November 09, 2018, 11:56:05 AM
If regulations are implemented now it is very late because all exchange systems have been implemented with decentralization that can be accessed by anyone. the government can only manage through the creation of its own digital currency not bitcoin

What did you mean by that? And what if other countries' government accepted or legalized Bitcoin? It is not late since there are no things that is late when doing these kind of things. They are just taking care of their people and their country, that is why they don't accept cryptos so easily. Bitcoin's transaction history can be seen on site like Blockchain.info, now what is the effect of that to the government? They can just accept Bitcoin whenever they want since that will be just a crpyto in their country and will never be a main currency.
2578  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will bitcoin be the currency of our future? on: November 09, 2018, 10:44:30 AM
It may happen as many establishments around the world now is accepting bitcoin as payment. Bitcoin has a bright future in the industry of currency.

We all know that Bitcoin is a volatile crypto currency, there will be a lot of people that will be really annoyed at the price of it every time, and just think of it how will the people will be disappointed on the price changes when they really needed the money. Also, just imagine how will they feel when they made a wrong transaction and will be getting back the BTC they sent, it will be harder than you thought.
2579  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Pre-Season on: November 08, 2018, 11:42:00 AM
Now Lakers won in addition of Tyson Chandler in his debut game in his hometown. Now Chandler might be the missing piece of the puzzle for the Lakers. A hard-working center with a heart of a champion might be as well what the Lakers need.
His veteran experience can also help the young players there so he is a good addition to the team. One more, aside from McGee there are no other good centers in their roster so they need him on the second unit or perhaps a starting Center (didn't watch their game a while ago).

They won against the Wolves hours ago so maybe adding him is a plus for them but lets observe how he plays in the Lakers.
They get bigger now and they won the game although DRose strikes again.
In terms of defense they have a good improvement because of the addition, both Javale and Chandler are good rebounder and shot blocker.

Well, DRose strikes but Lakers did not let him to win though but still, he must keep that kind of play since I really miss that Drose, it is all coming back. The addition of Tyson Chandler is really great since their defense are added up. Chandler made 9 rebounds in this game with 2 points, that is great. Lakers need more defense and his addition is really great. Lakers, I think will now get up to the loses they've made and make their run for the playoffs.
2580  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you ever wonders why we are using this paper as money? on: November 07, 2018, 11:02:50 AM
Just want to share the details about the people who ever thinks that why we need to use just paper as currency and we all are working hard to get those paper.People claiming that bitcoin is not virtual so it cannot be considered as money or they call it as scam or ponzi but they are using just papers for centuries and those paper currency were made out of thin air.

Made out of thin air? Are you reading what you are putting here? Do you even know that to make money you should be able to to pay them money? Money is being made because they are paying money, this is not made out of thin air since if they do, do you think we will be able to see it? Well, sarcasm aside, don't belittle these paper money since it is more older than you and a lot of people are alive, happy and comfortable because of this papers. You might not be able to live or even be born without these papers.
