The warriors loss today, I think this season is the only chance for their rivals to win because they are not doing it seriously.
The Champs are playing at their home court but they did not put much effort to beat the Wolves in the 2nd half, yet still an entertaining game.

Well, it is just the start of the new Season, and it is really exciting seeing them play again even  if they lost to Wolves. I guess they are still not that heated up for the first game, just like they are still not serious. I am not a fan of GSW the reason I am saying this but I do want to see again the players play. Boston lost to Hornets, I Missed the handles of Kyrie though they still have a great game against Hornets.
2682  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: You cannot win in gambling on: September 30, 2018, 01:19:23 PM
just because you lost a few low odds bets doesnt mean you can ever win in gambling
it just means that you were pretty unlucky
OR the games were rigged

Well, you have a point but the thing is that you will never win in gambling if you will be having a summation of all of your used money on gambling and compare it to the amount of money you had won, you will see the difference. In reality you will be able to see that earning money through gambling is hard, you are risking your money in a way that you are betting it based on how lucky you are that day while in trading or investing, we risk our money, we invest or trade money accepting the risk in a way that we are basing it on our knowledge and skill on interpreting a project. Gambling and Investing is not really far to each other but there are still a huge difference to these two.
2683  Economy / Economics / Re: Evolution of Money on: September 30, 2018, 12:13:59 PM
What i know in money evolution is that it started with Bartering, then gold and minerals, it came the fiat money now towards digital money. No matter how it started the important is now how are we going about it? How are we preparing ourselves to new technology and digital money?

I guess we are all prepared to what may happen in the future. The past will always be remembered as it is and people will always learn to what is the importance of the past. Value of items and products in the past are hard to consider since they are all just trading each other things that is well, valuable but it's value is not really the same as it is now. Nowadays, artifacts are being valued so much it will cost you your whole life. I guess in the past and what it is now, the only thing that changed is the value of things, if you will be thinking of it, even a simple thing has a great value and people are paying for it.
2684  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BTC is near end, proof block 2 on: September 30, 2018, 12:03:55 PM
Everyone has different views about bitcoin. And if thats your view then so be it. But why there are still so many investors that invest in bitcoin if  its a scam or ponzi scheme?

The way Bitcoin price moves depends on the investors of that certain crypto currency since the price of Bitcoin follows that law of the Demand and Supply, the higher the Demand, the higher the price of it and if that demand get lower, the price decreases and that is where the investors go in to invest again making an effect to increase it up again, the cycle goes on and I guess that is the reason why there are a lot of investors of Bitcoin and that is also my view the reason why Bitcoin will continue to push on making new records of ATHs.
2685  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How have you impact people with cryptocurrency knowledge on: September 30, 2018, 10:33:57 AM
All my efforts to try to explain to them were rejected. Everything related to money is sensitive and it can destroy the relationship between acquaintances. I do not think we should urge friends or relatives to invest in Bitcoin or something like that. But if we recognize them as Bitcoin misconceptions, we should clear their minds.

I don't think they will be rejecting that. Bitcoin is a great investment and I just give my friends some proof that they will be believing in, some of them even don't believe the profits I am getting from trading and investing on Bitcoin. Well, I did not really taught them but they do learn the simple things to themselves. If they are having a hard time, they approach me for my suggestions or opinions for that certain problem. I guess that should be the way of teaching your friends, if they want to learn it, they should work hard for it just like I did, right?
2686  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is the highest lost you have made as gambler? on: September 29, 2018, 02:38:51 PM
I think hoping to win is not a problem but the problem is that when you are too ambitious to get rich from gambling, how do people
gamble long-term but if they lose they remain calm? because they allocate the amount to gamble according to they can afford to lose

Hoping to win is a problem already when you know that we are talking about gambling. We all know that there are a lot of people hoping to win a huge amount of money in it but  we all know that is so hard to be accomplished. Instead of putting your money at risk in gambling, why don't people consider investing instead? Same risk, same things you will be using atleast you know that what you are spending your money is something you want to earn and that project too wants to earn.
2687  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Benefits of gambling? Yes - it exists! on: September 29, 2018, 01:00:57 PM
Benefits of gambling you guys say?  Yes!  If you have a nagging wife that you hate, you can gamble online at home to avoid her.  And if she wants to divorce your ass cos you gamble too much...  Just sign the papers and you get what's half of hers.  Full benefits achieved.  Lololol.

Well, that is like a situation in a comedy movie that will be done by the MC. It is funny that people make gambling a time spending entertainment but I don't think it will be a good solution to your nagging wife or dissapointing life. I guess the only thing that is better for gambling is that people will be able to realize that earning money is not easy as betting your money into gambling that will win easy money.
2688  Economy / Economics / Re: Technology improves we work more. on: September 28, 2018, 04:09:17 PM
I think the more developed the technology, the technology will also develop and you must be able to keep up with the times and must be able to work harder, because if you are lazy to learn this technology then you will be far behind.

We need to improve more same as the technology improves too. For me the technology will never stop improving because the people keeps learning new things and this is very helpful to all of us.

Well, for me I guess the word "learn" is not right but the right word for that is study. People study a lot of new things these days from new technology to old technologies. It helps them to pursue other things, to create and invent things that might be a theory in the past and making that theory a reality.
2689  Economy / Economics / Re: What will happen to bitcoin? on: September 28, 2018, 02:50:20 PM
Bitcoin prices will one day rise again and will bring huge profits, proven by beginners who began to study deeply about bitcoin, because they believe that bitcoin is a very profitable investment.

Why beginners? The reason they are beginners because they are just first timers on investing on Bitcoin and other crypto currencies. I don't trust these beginners since they do not know how volatile can Bitcoin go. I remember someone that invested on Bitcoin and then blame me for not only wasting his time but also wasting his money because he thought that it will be too well. I think that is 2 weeks before the price reached the 5 digits price.
2690  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Pre-Season on: September 28, 2018, 01:38:28 PM
Well even without lebron, the lakers have a very good chance of making the playoffs. I mean, their composotion of talented young guys, kuzma ingram and ball, who would likely all peak at the same time, is pretty potent. But of course throw in james and they're pretty much assured of a spot.

There are still a lot of other great players in the Lakers not including the players that you had said. Lebron James made it in to the finals the last season with only some great players. Don't get me wrong though, I know that players of NBA is all great. It is a sure spot for the LA Lakers and the exciting Conference Finals will start. Well, we all know GSW will be making their way to it and might be facing LA Lakers.
2691  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does convince people to enjoy gambling is a wrong idea? on: September 28, 2018, 12:29:40 PM
well we all do sometimes try to let people know of the good sides of what we do but most times we forget to highlight the negative aspects. I think you should explain to anyone who wants to join both the benefits and risk.
Also, always try to examine the person yourself if you know him and refuse to teach if you think he'll go wayward.
Everyone have their reasons for gambling and just as OP said, he gambled for fun and entertainment only but I do believe it’s not good to introduce someone to gambling for the purposes of entertainment when he can’t control himself, there are other avenues of entertainment out there.

That is right, there are a lot of other entertainment out there and most of them don't really need to be spent a huge amount of money. There are online games where you can enjoy playing game with anyone randomly and you can also make friends with them the same as gambling online. Watch movies, watch live games or maybe sports. There are a lot to think of so I guess you do not need to worry about it.
2692  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin volume is still rising ? on: September 28, 2018, 11:34:06 AM
yes of course this volume of bitcoin will add because this bitcoin has a very high demand and bitcoin also has a very limited total supply which makes the volume will still increase. when the volume increases, the price of bitcoin can be very expensive.

In several years, Bitcoin's price will be extremely expensive. It will be always in demand. More and more people show their interest in the cryptocurrencies. Thus, buy BTC now.

We don't know what will happen in the future but all we know is that more investors are seeing the potential of Bitcoin and more might invest on crypto currency in the future. If we will be making a guess based on the past prices, the price of Bitcoin will be making a huge leap or pump in the next years if that happens, well, Bitcoin is a volatile crypto so we don't know what will happen.
2693  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: DO PEOPLE STILL HAVE CONFIDENCE IN BITCOIN? on: September 27, 2018, 04:28:48 PM
Why are many disturbed about the  drop in the price of bitcoin  Cool. Come on guys, this is the not the time to give up on this amazing digital currency. Although this year has been a very volatile year for bitcoin, but one thing has always remained whenever this amazing digital cryptocurrency goes down, it bounces back much stronger than it was before. This is hope that keeps most crypto enthusiasts like myself who are resilient and have compelled us to develop a strong faith in this amazing cryptocurrency called bitcoin. Please this is not the time to give up on this amazing coin.  Roll Eyes

so it seems to me that entering into Crypto really requires the right time, with fluctuations, fud news and several internal factors (such as transaction problems) can have an impact on the hype to decrease interest in cryptocurrency

It can affect the investors or the users but all in all, all of that will be the decision of the user or the investor. We all know that the price of Bitcoin is not stagnant, it always changes, and it change quick. With that, Bitcoin is volatile, it quickly change so whatever other people says, even the price dumps, there will come a tine that it will pump.
2694  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Government trying to stop bitcoin, what I see on: September 27, 2018, 04:00:04 PM
Most developed countries have already legalised Bitcoin (except China) so we can see a good trend, other countries will probably follow, they can't ignore the future and they are not fools

China is not the only country that banned Bitcoin. In fact there are also a lot of countries you don't know that banned Bitcoin especially the countries with internet censorships. China is a developed country, in fact it is one of the greatest country in terms of the market so I don't think you need to belittle China.
2695  Economy / Economics / Re: What is the most influential factor that triggers bitcoin prices to fall down? on: September 27, 2018, 02:32:32 PM
The main factor in the fall in the price of bitcoin, is its demand the less people it comes the less it costs, and for this created this fall.


Well it is true, but it is not really the demand since the main reason is the movement of Bitcoin in the market. The more investors sold their Bitcoin in the market, the lower the price will get. But we don't need to worry since most of the investors took this opportunity to invest again on Bitcoin. It is great to invest on Bitcoin when the price is low and investors are taking advantage of it.
2696  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does convince people to enjoy gambling is a wrong idea? on: September 27, 2018, 01:46:09 PM
I felt guilt for convincing the people to come into gambling when some of my friends I invited them for gambling got addicted very soon so we need to pick the right kind of peoples for making them gambling if we have the poor people to make into gambling then it may affect them and their family life.

This is the almost the similar scenario which has happened to one of my friends as they wanted to just hang around and enjoy so invited few friends to casino. But now out that one has got addicted and plays for money and not for fun. So he feels bad about it.

That is the bad thing about your peers or your friends. I know that in that case they are just having fun, finding ways to spend some time together but the thing is that they introduced him into something that will ruin his life forever. I am not saying that friends are bad influence but most of the time, they are the great influencers of our lives so we must first decide if going with them all the time will be better for you.
2697  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Taking a break from gambling on: September 27, 2018, 11:46:17 AM
I say you don't take break or something, instead of that just stay from gambling. Moreover gambling is not meant to make money only you will be loose the funds from your wallets.
Nothing there in gambling field is stable. So not even for consideration you should not go with the gambling investment.
Well if the OP just wants to have a break, why not? I think the critical responsibility of the person is to be strict with funds and accept losses whenever it occurred. It's not going to be fun if you become emotional, you should just be smart with your funds and approach a strategy. That's what I do most of the time.

If someone told you he wants to take a break, that means he will be having a rest for some time. And that also means that he will be coming back after that rest and I don't think that it will only bring a small change and in the long run, no change at all. I guess for people who has realize that they are tired of gambling every single day or week, and think they need a break better make it your first step to take away yourself from gambling. That that chance since that might be a one time chance you will get from exiting the gambling world.
2698  Economy / Economics / Re: What's Crypto innovation for you? on: September 27, 2018, 10:09:10 AM
Thanks to Satoshi Nakamoto for creating bitcoin and many lives here changes there life including me. Crypto can changes all including the future of payment system by the help of blockchain technology it will overwhelmed when it see in the end and will appreciate everybody.

Crypto currencies will not be appreciated by a lot of people since most of them do not have an interest to it and some of them don't know how to use the computer, well most of the technologies meaning they will not be able to use Bitcoin or other cryptos. I guess if the payment system will be developed and will be applied by the Blockchain technology, it will be more efficient and easy though people will still not be able to realize or appreciate the technology since all they know is that the payment system is developed.
2699  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: how are you increasing your BTC portfolio? on: September 26, 2018, 05:01:36 PM
almost all altcoins seem to grow bigger against BTC when there is a bullmarket, so besides buying BTC for cash holding some good altcoins will do the job and increase your BTC asset.

Bigger than BTC? How can you say that? I know that there are a lot of other cryto currencies that is greater than Bitcoin but in terms of increase, I don't think Bitcoin will be losing to other crypto currencies. Others might have a greater price change than Bitcoin but with Bitcoin having a long life now, we should also consider it's change all of these years.
2700  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Three things you should not do when Bitcoin prices drop! on: September 26, 2018, 04:05:55 PM
Also don't trust on rumors, don't sell your bitcoin in hurry and mostly don't let your trust be aside from bitcoin.

If you trust on rumors so easily, I don't think you can call yourself a good investor or trader. As an investor, you should be able to find trustworthy sites or sources of information that can help you with your investing and that is also means great profit. Some popular investors is a great example of great sources of information since most of them releases their own books about their experiences and trading techniques that can help you.
