2801  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: how long you can stay without gambling? on: August 19, 2018, 01:33:21 PM
Can't, when I was under the influence of gambling, every day I gambled and tried to take a vacation to not gamble, but in reality people who have become gambling addicts will find it difficult for him to stay without gambling. As long as he can have the capital to bet, gambling will not be cut off from his life.

Because Gambling is so hard to forget. Who would be able to forget the easy winnings they can do on gambling. Gambling requires money, and if that money increases, the experience is getting better and it is another reason to come back again the next day hoping that you will be able to win a lot of money but that don't really happen.
2802  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Life with a Gambler - Solution! on: August 19, 2018, 11:40:38 AM
I don't think gambling should be called a addiction it's not something bad or horrible as it's always is portrayed. Not all our alike, not even our fingers are the same size, each one finds a different passion which keeps him sane so I would call it a passion, i believe each person is sane enough to decide for himself, and so I feel each one can make his own choice without being subject to humiliation.
Only people who do not have a future will consider gambling as an interesting thing. The fact that gambling is a bad thing and has no benefits. As people who want a much better future, we must try to leave the gambling game in the fastest possible time.

So you're saying that you can't get a better future from gambling? That's just ridiculous and your statement is false.
Doug Polk is a gambler, and he still has a future as gambler and meanwhile streaming and meanwhile trading cryptos.
So where your statement steps into him?
these are exceptional cases i think, but as a whole i do not think that most of the gamblers are too much successful in gambling. I do not think that there is any better future for most of the gambler.

That is certain. Gamblers don't ensure a win every time they sit on a gambling table, they do experience a lot of times that they had lost and regretted that they did gamble. I gamble sometimes but I am not a gambler, I know that myself the reason I don't understand most of the gamblers view on their gambling activities but I do know that they have a goal on their gambling activities the reason they are pushing hard to win. I guess having your own gambling place is the best solution for you to have a great future in the gambling industry.
2803  Economy / Economics / Re: why do people agree to pay taxes? on: August 18, 2018, 03:46:57 PM
I think because there are already rules so they are afraid that if they don't pay, we may not pay but taxes will continue to accumulate and that becomes our debt. They are aware that taxes are for the country's needs.

Tax are not just the "country's needs", it is the blood of a country that is the reason it is so important. Tax may be irritating, may pissed a lot of citizens because of the pesky taxes but it is essential to a country to keep it's development and create other opportunities dor the country.
2804  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling- Believe in Strategy or Luck on: August 18, 2018, 02:46:47 PM
BELIEVE IN BOTH! Both Strategy and Luck will mesh well into your games, If you do not have any strategy within your game, then I don't think you should be asking for luck to appear in your games, I mean if you do not use your brain and not become strategic with any moves you do, then I don't think luck is even necessary.
Both of them are indeed needed for gambling but I think luck is more needed than strategy. Even a gambler who doesn't have strategy can win in a gamble if they have luck of their side. On the other side, even the strategic gambler can lose if they are not lucky so for me, luck plays a bigger role in gambling compare to strategy.

Though the problem in there is that you can't really call in the "luck" since no one ever knows how luck rolls in. A lot of gamblers says that if you are straightly winning a game, you are lucky but what if that is just a coincidence. But luck or not, as long as you are not using all of your money into gambling, that is better than hoping to win on gambling.
2805  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is independent? or depends on fiat currency on: August 18, 2018, 01:10:47 PM
The dollar is the most popular currency on the planet. Therefore, it is convenient to measure bitcoins in dollars. But this does not mean that bitcoin depends on the dollar. If the dollar collapsed, bitcoins will be measured in another fiat currency.

It is not really the most popular currency but it is the most traded fiat currency that is why Bitcoin's common value of fiat currency is US Dollar, also not because it is convenient. Fiat are also the common currencies we use so there is no other things we can use to represent the value of Bitcoin expect using a fiat currency. If Dollar collapsed, dollar will still be used and with that Bitcoin will be having a great price in terms of USD.
2806  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Reasons behind Bitcoin/Cryptomarket fall??? on: August 18, 2018, 11:49:56 AM
Yes, the cause of the price of bitcoin dropped dramatically is sell panic and manipulation. Bitcoin theft is included in the sell panic, because the perpetrators are sure to sell all of the stolen bitcoin.

Do we really need to be worried about the every movement that the Bitcoin price does? We are investing our money on a volatile cryptocurrency so we don't really need to be worried about it every single minute. With a lot of users and investors all over the world, that is common for Bitcoin to have a quick price change in a shirt period of time.
2807  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Criteria of a good gambler on: August 17, 2018, 04:52:31 PM
A good gambler knows what the best for them not to become an addicted on gambling. And They know already what's their own limit while on playing as a good criteria of being gambler.

If gamblers can just control their greediness I guess there will be no problem on gambling. Most of the gamblers are addicted to gambling since they can earn easy money, "Easiest money of my Life!" I've heard it once on my friend, I thought it will be continuing since he is really bragging about it but when I asked her wife, he barely give any money to their children nor support their elder son to go to school. It is sad not because he is losing a lot of money but because his children are greatly affected of his addiction.
2808  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To quit gambling is to quit yourself on: August 17, 2018, 04:17:52 PM
Quitting gambling is not easy especially once you addicted in to it but suicide is not a solution try to do anything and be busy to other thing than to finish your self. Avoid gambling so that you can not be addicted.
Yeah it's not an easy thing if you have become an addict because gambling has become your habit activity so it will be very difficult
to get rid of, you're right maybe you need a few days' vacation or looking for other activities so you get busy and forget about gambling

Even if you spend most of your time redirecting your focus on earning money or gambling, I don't think it will work that easily. As a lot of gamblers I knew, they all suffered from not gambling their money. Saying it like that is easy, but when you are addicted to gambling, keeping yourself from betting even in a simple way it is very hard.
2809  Economy / Economics / Re: Is the government really scary? on: August 17, 2018, 01:52:39 PM
I believe that the government is trying to protect against the risks of venture investment, because in this market a lot of scams, respectively, you need to have a way to protect ordinary citizens from the risks


I guess this is a reason why citizens should be afraid of the government, since they are just an ordinary citizen. There are a lot of government that wants to make the country develop, to improve the state of lives of the people there but there are things that is needed to be sacrificed and other lives of people is not suffice to do that. I don't think that it is happening but what if it is?
2810  Economy / Economics / Re: When will smartphones used for bitcoin mining? on: August 17, 2018, 12:32:10 PM
As we all know that smartphones are just like computer nowadays that has strong storage capacity and processor. This I think could be enable to mine bitcoin and this is what I am waiting for if there are any smartphones company that would offer their smartphones for bitcoin mining or even as a smartphone that works as digital hardware wallet for bitcoin and other crypto. I am waiting for it to happen. Do you think that it will happen?

The day is not so far from us. Men has go long in nano thchnology where a big amount of memory can deserve into a simple cheap. Not only memory but also big work can be made easily in a single seconds. So be cool and wait for next discover. Grin Grin

There will be a lot of great inventions and technology in the future but I don't think that smart phones will be developed or improved to be used on crytocurrency mining. I would rather improve the performance of these smart phones on games since we are seeing the technology is leading to these.
2811  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What Happen If Gambling was not introduced? on: August 17, 2018, 12:00:38 PM
I can not imagine if gambling is not introduced, maybe there is no fun and togetherness because I think gambling is a social activity that must involve money in the game. where the winner can earn money or reward valuable.
I think that there are so many other ways and means of getting fund and to come together. In fact gambling create a lot of economic problems for the people and specially for those people who do not have any limit for playing gambling and they play gambling for everything they have.


I guess there will still be a way of gambling even if it is not introduced in the past. Since there are sports, a way of having a competition with other people, there will always be people betting on each teams with their money supporting that certain team but of course, that will not be called as a gambling act since no one knows what it is.
2812  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Don't worry, Bitcoin will be fine. on: August 17, 2018, 11:02:04 AM
The cryptocurrency is still a long way ahead to reach the full development threshold. I expect bitcoin prices, as well as Altcoin, will rise this year

It always do yearly. I don't know what will happen on the next months but all I know is that it will create a development, it will be bringing change to the price we are having right now. We don't need to be impatient about this since Bitcoin is always surprising us how it moves and how it sets records annually. I don't know what will be the next ATH but all I know is to invest on good altcoins in the market.
2813  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is it possible to have bitcoin shortage? on: August 16, 2018, 01:37:10 PM
Yes it is.  Bitcoin is limited and it will never enough for everyone. Also if shortage happened,  the value will be very high making it's user / investors really wealthy.

well, Bitcoin has a limited supply so that will be obvious that not everyone will not get a share on the supply of Bitcoin. And the more that everyone wants to get a share of Bitcoin, the more the demand became higher and the more the price of Bitcoin will rise since the price of Bitcoin is based on the law of the demand and supply.
2814  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Martingale for win, my own experience on: August 16, 2018, 12:19:28 PM
Correct , We know that martingale technique is so risky that if you run out of money you will totally lose the game , But this technique is effective on a persons that has a very large bank roll. But it is isnt effective on a small ones. Just remember that dont over spend your time on playing gamble because you will all lose in the end.

That is obvious, if you run out of money that is the signal that you lose, does it mean anything else? Martingale is a great strategy really for an individual that has a lot of number in his bank roll. Don't try this strategy if you just have some number that can be gambled on your wallet since you will not just lose but you will be losing it in a blink of an eye.
The whole point I was making was to show that it is NOT a great strategy ESPECIALLY for an individual with a long bankroll. That particular individual would be eventually risking his whole money just to win a single stake 1$ profit. It is lunacy!


Well, I am not having an argument about your post unless you are abel1337 user. Hmmm  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

High risk, high return, that is the usual saying of these gamblers, not only them but also these investors investing on a lot of great crypto currencies. I am not saying that it is a good thing I am just saying that it can be a good thing.

2816  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sometimes enough is enough on: August 14, 2018, 10:56:57 AM
Enough Is enough if you lose and you didn't control yourself it will affect you a lot you will be addicted for gambling and don't let yourself like that .

Gambling can change your life in an instant, who would not want to be rich instantly right? If that is the case, why would they not gamble right? Most of the people these days wants to be rich instantly but in the reality, they can't do a thing to make themselves rich. They are hoping to win lotteries, betting their money on sports and testing their luck out on casinos in which rich people don't risk their money on luck, they risk their money on something that can give them profit and not hoping for luck.
2817  Economy / Economics / Re: How do crypto exchange help a cryptocurrency? on: August 11, 2018, 07:06:18 PM
I'm not familiar to the world of trading (even the traditional ones). Can someone explain how a crypto exchange (like Binance or Kraken) benefits a cryptocurrency?

Usually, the exchanges can only help tokens that can be exchanged. But if the token is listed on a "awesome exchanges", that would be great. For example, if a coin is listed on the binance, its value will increase several times.


There are a lot of  crypto currencies and I don't think that even if that certain exchange is an "awesome exchange", there are a lot of times that their value do not change. With a lot of other competents, I don't think that certain crypto currency will be popular if they are not better than other crypto currencies. I guess the help of these exchanges is that it makes a lot of investors increase the demand of a certain currency because it has a value of other popular crypto currency.
2818  Economy / Economics / Re: To be or not to be. What to invest in? on: August 11, 2018, 06:14:28 PM
Each investment has advantages and disadvantages of each. And for investment in crypto does have a high risk but investment in crypto can also provide greater results. I believe in the future crypto will be more advanced because crypto is a technology and therefore I choose crypto as an investment.

Investment has their own risks the reason we can really say that Bitcoin and every crypto currencies really has their own disadvantages and advantages. A lot of people said that it's volatility is the disadvantage of Bitcoin, but the thing is that that is the reason why a lot of people are earning from these crypto currencies. So we can say that it's volatility is the disadvantage and advantage of Bitcoin.
2819  Economy / Economics / Re: Beliefs about money and wealth on: August 11, 2018, 03:20:45 PM
I always put my trust and expectation into the market, even though the market is down, but that's not the reason I'm disappointed.

The market volatility is necessary in order for you to earn profit and that is the reason why you should not be disappoint in order to multiply your coins.

Well the word is not really "necessary" but the thing is that it is that already. I mean Bitcoin is a real crypto currency that is so volatile the reason a lot of investors investing on it is earning a lot of money. They are just riding the waves to earn money, they sell when the price is profitable and they buy when the price is very great to buy.
2820  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Don't worry, Bitcoin will be fine. on: August 11, 2018, 01:33:28 PM
yes, don't worry the market will be fine because bitcoin will continue to have changing prices, so we don't need to worry, the graph will go back up and will bring good news

That is obvious since Bitcoin is a decentralized crypto currency, it is volatile af. With a lot of users or investors of Bitcoin, that makes the Bitcoin price more volatile and we should really expect the price of Bitcoin to be more volatile than before. There are a lot of times that the price changes and there are a lot of times people are expecting to increase but we will not know the exact time since BTC will be BTC.
