281  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How many times have you gone against majority on: October 30, 2019, 11:30:07 PM
Going against the majority really needs too much courage and confidence but it is not difficult and i think everybody should do what seems right to them because sometimes it happen that majority of the people cannot figure out the situation and if you follow them and loss your bet then it always become the cause of regret, so in some cases people needs to follow their own decision as it is sometimes the demand of the situation.
Nope, it doesn't really need to take too much courage when you're about to do it. Sometimes we act something differently and doesn't go with the crowd because we want twist.

But yeah if we are confident with what we're doing, going against with everyone's bet is fine thing to try.

It still need courage going against the majority because what if the team you are about to bet on is considered and underdog by many, then if a gambler think its an underdog then they would normally go with the majority but if you have trust on that team and have courage to risk your money on that team then yeah you will go against the majority.
282  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does the discipline help in gambling? on: October 30, 2019, 02:21:10 PM
a strong character knows how to accept defeat whether if its small or huge  . strong character does not limit himself to gamble because if he do that , that will only make him afraid to loose or weak when it comes to risking himself on playing a gambling  .


Strong character also knows when to stop, it doesn't always mean that you have to be brave on taking the risk, it is about how you analyze the situation to figure out what is the best thing to do.

discipline i think dont help too much in gambling because itll wont make you win when you wanted to win big because you are controlling yourself to bet more or to bet big   .

this is not about winning, discipline means you have the control over your behavior to avoid further losses in the long run, it seems you misunderstand the whole thing here. Control could help you in so many ways, and without a doubt, it could be your way on winning in gambling, it might not be a big jackpot win, but if you are going to add your winnings in gambling, that will be still big as jackpot.

It is okay to be brave in taking risk but know your limitations. Limitations meaning you have to know when to stop if you have to, being brave is not enough if you want to succeed, one should also have discipline while gambling because if you only have bravery then tendency is you will keep on betting without really realizing that its not the right path anymore. Having discipline does not only prevent a gambler to addiction but it can help a gambler maintain it's focus towards that game and when a gambler has focus then he/she can make the best strategy and is successful.
283  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How do we get the best at this moment? on: October 30, 2019, 11:11:44 AM
to get the best results from investing crypto we need patience and not easily panic selling. when the bear market a few months ago we should not complain or panic selling. many people fail to invest in cryptocurrency because they are not patient. they think bitcoin is a way to get rich overnight. this is wrong thinking. to get big profits we have to be patient and wait for the price of bitcoin to rise.

Panicking will only worsen the situation or will only make you regret it so might as well just ride with the bear and have faith that sooner or later you will be riding the bulls. With todays price we can see manipulation of the price but just get the best out of it by thinking of long term and don't panic, it is not all the time that we will have this trend.
284  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to control your emotions while trading?👨🏼‍💻 on: October 30, 2019, 10:39:43 AM
Note that if you trade on a demo account, then losses will not touch you as much as they touch on a real account. You do not feel emotion for the money that you are not afraid to lose.
All problems are precisely because of this. When people trade, often, for them this money is very valuable, they depend on them.

When they lose them, lose in unsuccessful transactions, they feel pain, which leads to emotional reactions that they cannot control.
The same thing with greed, it arises only if you depend on this money. To learn how to control your emotions you need not to experience anything for the money you are trading for.

It is not all true that when you play on a demo account you can't feel any emotions because for me you still feel a little frustrated whenever you trade wrong or you lose because that means that your strategy isn't working but it doesn't have a worry on a financial aspect since its a demo account and you will not lose any money. I think it is easy to trade using a demo account than the real one because when of all the worries you have like what if the strategy won't work or whatever. In gambling you just have to have a focus mind to think of good strategies and never let your greed control you.
285  Economy / Speculation / Re: Don't react to the fluctuations on: October 29, 2019, 12:44:48 PM
It is easy to say that but very hard to do, many people are checking the price like everyday and they see the quick pump and dump in the few days and as investor they want profits to cover the previous losses that is why when they see a pump they well sell again in fear that they might miss the opportunity and that the opportunity is not always there. If only most people are patience then we won't see much of panic buying and selling.
286  Other / Archival / Re: Is KYC benefit to crypto people or not on: October 29, 2019, 11:35:57 AM
Almost kyc i agree exchange and bounty campaign for avoid cheating people, I think most important every exchange for safety our account with funds. Actually dumper people will not available in exchange where have good kyc documents passing.

Yes it is true that KYC can actually help eliminate those cheaters who are using the anonymity of bitcoin as a reason to rip people off. KYC is good because it can make you feel secure and if incase something happened then it can be traced easily. However, the bad side as well is what if the KYC files were hacked then hackers can get your personal information and worst case is they will use that information to scam other people. KYC has advantages and disadvantages it depends on the person what he prefers.
287  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Stop Worrying about the Bitcoin Price on: October 29, 2019, 10:40:16 AM
As long as you look at the price of bitcoin every minute of your life, you cannot sleep well. People should not focus on the short movement of bitcoin because its highly volatile. The good thing right now is that, the price starts to recover and its good for those who don’t panic sell, it will rise big again soon.

It is easy to say that but even me it is hard for me not to look on the price. I find it very tempting to know what is is the price, you know to check whether you can make profits out of the pump even if it's not that huge, this was before though, now, I only check the price once in a week or in two weeks because it is stressful to check everyday and then all you see is a dump. I think we just need to be patient and good things will come on the right time.
288  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Crowded Casinos - Play or not? on: October 29, 2019, 04:31:53 AM
You bring an important point, when a casino is mostly empty the risk of being subject to theft is very low since people have a tendency to keep a very large distance between each other, but when the casino is crowded this is not an option, you are going to have people very close to you and when that happens then you need to take care of your chips because if you get distracted you could easily lose some of them without realizing it.

Casino are not crowded always. You may find more gamblers in casino during the weekends or most probably during Christmas and New Year, when everyone is in a party mood and they rush to the casino and other entertainment places. If you are too worried about the crowded places, you can avoid going to casino at those times of the year.
I am not really worried about crowded casinos but we must admit the possibility that you may lose some of your money to thieves in a crowded casino is higher than when it is empty, in fact despite those risks I like a crowded casino since you can feel the energy of the people and you could always find someone to have a nice conversation, it always surprises me the diverse backgrounds of those that gamble, there are many successful professionals that do it to get rid of some of their stress while others are professional gamblers and others are naive enough to think they can earn money in gambling with their luck.

Well if you aren't careful enough with your assets or belongings then surely you will lose it from thieves, with this very crowded it is not impossible that thieves or probably tricksters are present and with all the crowd it is very hard to spot them because they can blend in pretty well. In my experience, I find crowded casinos very stressful and I can't really focus on what i'm doing because I have to think about something else, thus, I will not play in casinos that are too crowded.
289  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are People Losing Interest with Bitcoin? on: October 25, 2019, 01:52:12 PM
It's not fair to say that people have lost the interest in bitcoin, because once our world is going forward with new technologies everyone will find the use of this digital currency. In the future with new development projects based on this new digital currency system and the blockchain technology, it's going to be a very interesting world, trust me Smiley so there is nothing to worry you can always go forward with up and downs, TRUST THE PROCESS!! Smiley

Trust is what we need right now, Bitcoin has been in the industry for almost 10 years but still it is still standing and will for sure be part of our everyday life, if you are holding Btc  at the moment, thank yourself as you had the chance to buy it at cheaper price, 10 years from now we don't know the price of Btc, it can be times five of the price today or more.

Trust and patience is what we all need right now, trust that bitcoin will surely bounce back and patience since we really don't know when will the bulls will come. Yes, it is true that bitcoin lived for 10 years already and has proven to have regained strength despite the dumps so we just have to be a little patient about it, this is not the time to lose interest to bitcoin.
290  Economy / Economics / Re: Will 2019 take us to Moon or Mars? on: October 25, 2019, 01:29:02 PM
all of us of course are eager to see that bright end of 2017.. but in fact we don't want to see what happened during 2018 when bitcoin fell to 3k level.
so I vote for stable flat during the end 2019.. let the bitcoin be at 10k level. that would be nice an d steady growth within 2019
maybe at the moment, the price of bitcoin is quite close to the price of $ 10k, but it might be a little difficult to see that when we are at the end of the year. however at the moment, the price of bitcoin is stable at the level of $ 7k- $ 8k, although there is news of halving will happen, I think the current price of bitcoin is indeed trying to reach the price of $ 8600, or even $ 10000 this year, but until now the increase has not been significant.
In this year we are so glad that bitcoin reach to $11,000 but now it down to $7000. Maybe it will be back again in other months be followed by some altcoins are long down the price. As of now we need to hold our bitcoin and wait the recovery of it and we dont need waste of time selling our bitcoin in that dip price. Must better to buy some bitcoin on that kind of price than to sell bitcoin.
Until now, whether bitcoin will rebound in the last months of the year or not is still unclear but at least here, we get two joys, the first is that this year, the price of bitcoin has made a proud return, although it has now fallen quite a bit but compared to last year, this is still a pretty good price. In addition to this success, we can see many investors have more confidence in bitcoin, and bitcoin does not continue to fall into a deep pit, it is still between the moon and Mars but with the hype right now, the chances of future growth are very high

We can't tell for sure, bitcoin is trying to get its feet back but it seems that it is very hand to stand firmly and keep up the momentum. Despite the massive dump this past weeks i'm still hopeful that bitcoin will bounce back but i'm not thinking it'll be instant, it may take time but I know it will surely bounce back like the old times.
291  Economy / Economics / Re: Is bitcoin volatility here to stay? on: October 25, 2019, 01:02:08 PM
volatility will always be in bitcoin or altcoin. because in cryptocurrency trading, everyone uses volatility to make a profit. investors and traders will definitely wait for the price to come down below to buy, and will sell it when the price is above. volatility will definitely affect market prices, and it will always be exploited by traders.

When we say cryptocurrency or bitcoin then we should also know it comes with volatility. Bitcoin is known for it’s volatility and investors got interested because of it. For me, volatility is in cryptocurrencies nature which means it is here to stay whether we like it or not. Bitcoin is doing great regardless of it’s volatility so we just have to accept it.
292  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin in 2020? on: October 25, 2019, 12:26:20 PM
Hy all. How are you. Bitcoin will rise to the moon in early 2020, do you know the reason? One reason is that more and more people are familiar with crypto and the digital world. Thanks. Cool

Interesting but please know almost all people think it’s gonna happen but sad to say having a lot of people investing in bitcoin is not the only factor that can affect the market price. Yes, a lot is now investing and interested in bitcoin but with new people entering cryptocurrency a high percentage of people doing FOMO or doing unnecessary buy and sell of coins most especially when the price is at it’s lowest. It’s good to be positive but don’t get to confident with your prediction because you might only get disappointed.
293  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BTC, why do some people just get it, others really don't? on: October 25, 2019, 12:00:05 PM
Its not that they don’t get it but they are not open-minded about bitcoin. If a person if open minded then if you only explain bitcoin in a simpler way then I don’t see any reason that they can get it. When we introduce it to newbies it is important that we include everything meaning we should provide them the advantages and disadvantages for them to understand better.
294  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What's your favorite way to receive money as a gift? Cash or digital.. on: October 25, 2019, 11:29:18 AM
No wonder why, people are already adopting and accepting digital currency like bitcoin. Some people finally understand how a digital currency works, maybe they realize its value and the advantage on using it. Just like them i'll also choose digital, because it can be used for a lot of other things and its less hassle in making transactions and payments.

A lot of people now are understanding the benefits that digital currency can provide. I think a lot of people now are starting to understand that digital currencies, bitcoin for example does more good than bad unlike those televise on media, they are starting to appreciate and fully understand that digital currency cannot only provide convenient and secure transaction but can also provide better lifestyle. Anyways, I would love to receive a gift through digital currency to also help in the awareness of bitcoin.
295  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will bitcoin hit a new low since 2018 on: October 25, 2019, 11:06:23 AM
There has been a lot of predictions here and there, some say it’s going bullish some say it’s bearish and with all different prediction it is hard to tell which one to choose and what to think anymore but we all know bitcoin’s volatility and as investors there is only two directions up and down thus, we should all be ready for all the things that can happen even the worst things. We may see a new low in the coming days but always remember that bitcoin has always regain it’s strength so just believe in bitcoin.
296  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What's worse: cigar addiction or gambling addiction on: October 25, 2019, 10:47:04 AM
Gambling is a worst addiction people might end up going broke and poor or commiting suicide while for cigar addiction i didnt heard any story that people end up poor cause of smoking too much cigar.

Same goes with cigar addiction, cigars in our place are quite expensive but a lot of people are still buying it and it can make you broke just buying cigar and if you’ll get sick not only you will be broke but also your family and also it is also like a suicide because we all know having cigar addiction can give you diseases so for me, it is better to stop both.
297  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Donating the Gambling profits on: October 25, 2019, 10:29:59 AM
I won't do that,unless the money I won is more than enough to complete a rich man's life. Cheesy Helping poor is good thing but giving them money will not change them,we have to teach them about something which can be useful to find a job and lead their entire life on their own which cannot be done by individual it has to be taken care by governments.

So you are saying that you will not donate until you get a lot of money and but remember the more money you will get, the more greedy you will get too.
I also contradict your 2nd point of view because Government alone cannot change the people life, it is also the responsibility of the rich people to help the poor ones and every cent matters.
Its not the rich man duty,its government duty because everyone paying taxes to government not to the rich man.I just spoke the reality,people may say they will donate but after they won they will forget that and will continue to enjoy their life with the rewards until they exhaust it.

Right, it actually depends with the gambler if they wanted to donate or what, but I doubt it because most of the time gamblers don’t win big and when they win a decent amount then the first thought would be how is he gonna increase it, should he gamble it again or invest it on some other investments or some would even think of having a vacation with family some place else.
298  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Price Bounces Back Above $8200, Are Bulls Finally Here? on: October 24, 2019, 12:56:45 PM
I think it is too early to say the bulls are coming because the price is still showing bears, yes there might be an upward trend of but I think it will still in bearish trend even in the early 2020. I know we’ve been waiting for the bulls and it showed quite a bullish trend in the past months but we shouldn’t think right away that its bullish after few pumps to avoid disappointments.
299  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are People Losing Interest with Bitcoin? on: October 24, 2019, 08:25:15 AM
yeah, newbie weak hands are leaving bitcoin handing over their small amount of bitcoin to others who understand the true purpose of bitcoin, at a discount just to try and buy it back a couple of months later at a much higher price. Wink

Very true, these are the newbies who have weak faith with bitcoin because they only invest in bitcoin because it can give big profits but with todays price that is sometimes bearish then they will loss faith in bitcoin. The only people whose with bitcoin are those who have been with bitcoin through thick or thin. Bitcoin is very volatile and that investors should know better.
300  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What's worse: cigar addiction or gambling addiction on: October 23, 2019, 11:20:09 PM
I think gambling addiction as its a serious illness which might lead to destruction of your health also.

Once you destroyed your finances which will likely to happen for gambling addicts, you will start destroying your health as well as you have no peace in life, you cannot concentrate, can't sleep and can't eat well and you will live a miserable life.

Both can actually can compromise your health so if you have both vices then better stop both, they may of different terms and are different but both is bot good for a persons well being. Cigar is bad for the health because of its chemical and at the same time cigar now are getting expensive. Gambling on the other hand sure can give entertainment but it can also make people stressed.
