2841  Economy / Speculation / Re: what could cause bitcoin prices to go up and down? on: July 30, 2018, 01:42:12 PM
I think the growth of bitcoin can lead to more positive news and its greater appearance and legalization in different countries.

Well, with a lot of users and investors in the market, the price of Bitcoin will really lead to a growing price. But this talk is all about the cause of growth and not where it will lead. I can say that with a lot of users, it will really lead to rise that is also the cause of the decentralization of crypto currencies. The price of cryptos follow the law of demand and supply, well, it is the common explanation about it.

Makes sense though, but there are a lot of other gamblers that really want to gamble online not because they don't want to socialize or "have fun" but they are just wanting to gamble anonymously or take gambling the efficient way. Most of the gamblers I know usually have a job everyday, instead of going to casinos, they just leave their laptops or PCs open with a BOT on online gambling sites betting their money. It is fun for them since they are seeing changes to their money every time they went home.
2843  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: thinking quiting after lose on gambling. on: July 30, 2018, 11:19:22 AM
It makes me laugh when I'm realizing my promises to myself to not gamble again whenever I'm losing in all in bet. After that when I have bitcoin again, I would think to gamble it first and ending up losing all of it  Cheesy Now I had control to myself but still gamble a few bets sometimes
You are not the only that struggles with these promises. You can neutralize yourself but you can never say that you will quit, right?  Grin

Addiction will stay as your addiction no matter what, the only thing that will change is having our control to ourselves. There are a lot of people not really quitting their gambling activities since that is really hard instead they are making their own ways to control themselves, they might not be addicted but they are still winning with great control since they already know how bad to be addicted to it.
2844  Economy / Economics / Re: When will smartphones used for bitcoin mining? on: July 29, 2018, 04:43:11 PM
there is now option to mine some cryptocurrencies for example minergate or electroneum

This application may be available on the internet or on the playstore but I don't think you will be able to earn anything good here. The best thing about android or smart phones is that it is efficient for communicating and for some entertainment. It has some hardware that let it play games and applications but it can't really do a mining algorithm. Instead of wrecking your phones using it to mining, better buy a certain hardware for that work.
2845  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Pre-Season on: July 29, 2018, 03:12:43 PM
I read somewhere that Anthony will be Rockets' third option in offense. How come he is better option in offense than Gordon lol? You can compare Gordon with him, Gordon is way over Carmelo's league.
Gordon is better in shooting but not an all around shooter, the length and the strength of melo is a difference maker.
Well, we cannot conclude now, what I am saying is just based on their past performance, if Melo will step up, then for sure Rockets has a chance to be the number 1 in the west again.

Gordon is great but yeah he is not an all around shooter but if you will be watching the game of GSW and Rockets where Gordon is guarding Stephen Curry, Steph is having a hard time making some buckets. He did a great job last season and that is also the reason why he is also nominated as a sixth man. I guess there are a plan the reason why Melo is called out at Rockets. Let's just wait what will happen this season.
2846  Economy / Economics / Re: Greediness leads to market manipulation. on: July 29, 2018, 12:33:08 PM
Sometimes many people try to manipulate the market and buy precious tokens cheap and selling high later.They intentionally cause fear and panic in the inexperienced members and take advantage to perpetrate their greed activities.
That is what trader do.  Buy low, sell high.  They don't really care about nothing but profit.

That is what trader do, if they don't do that they will not earn a profit. You don't need to blame these traders since that is their job, you have a job, you do it. Why will they sell at low and buy at high? That will not generate them any profit. They don't really care about anything since that is the nature of our world, survival of the fittest.
2847  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is better in poker: bluffing or playing only with good cards? on: July 29, 2018, 12:14:44 PM
I don't usually play poker but I do know how to play and I am seeing great players play poker and get some good techniques from them how to the cards at hand. With this two options, I can't say that one of them is great than the other since these two options can be used at the same time. Since most players that is usually bluffing has a lower card at hand to pressure their opponents maybe verbally or using some facial expressions if you can play these two, the players will be confused on how you really play the cards. They will not know if you have a great card or just bluffing because you have a lower cards, It can be your great weapon.
2848  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Season on: July 29, 2018, 11:04:20 AM
The Warriors have no doubt the popularity of the championship, as long as the current Durant + Curry + Thompson + Green is healthy, then the Warriors will always be the biggest favourite to win!
The Houston Rockets can only hope to win a dream if they want to win!

Don't forget another great player in their team, the new one, Cousin. Some say that he is not that great player since he just got from the injury but even though he is, he can still help his team greatly even if he is not always in the court. Houston might their chance but it depends on how their newly built team will do in the new season. There are a lot of great teams to look out for and I don't know what will happen to Kahwi.
2849  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling addiction mainly due to loneliness and dissatisfaction? on: July 28, 2018, 01:23:40 PM
I don't know whether this argument is true or not. I know a few of these gambling addicts (some of whom happens to be my friends). These people are definitely not lonely or dissatisfied with their lives.

That is the problem about this Gambling addicts, they look really happy or cheerful on the outside but inside? They are really broken. I know because I had some experience in the past like that. They gamble since we did not know that his mother is suffering from a disease and he wants to help her, he gave some money sometimes but most of the time, he can't since he lost a lot.
2850  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Future of crypto currency will be bright in India on: July 28, 2018, 12:24:27 PM
India is one of the largest country in the world and it has great opportunity to invest. I think btc will find a bright future in india.

Well, India is not the only country that is accepting and circulating Bitcoin in their country. There are a lot of other countries that accepts Bitcoin, and also they are giving warnings to people not to use it in certain transactions especially using to commit crimes like in our country. India might be having some regulations about that, well it is the same with other countries.
2851  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Where do you see crypto-currency take us in the next 5, 10, 15 or 20+ years? on: July 28, 2018, 12:03:46 PM
It is mathematical that the future will be crypto. They are the best type of coins that the market will choose instead of the old fiat.

Even if you don't really use some mathematical solutions for that, we can already say that the future is pointing towards it. Our era is even called the digital era where in what we usually use are digital technologies like computers and mobile phone. The future will be really amazing with a lot of great technologies and inventions aiming to make our lives efficient, and that is the same with transactions.
2852  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To quit gambling is to quit yourself on: July 28, 2018, 10:57:39 AM
Yes, it is an addiction and it is hard to quit gambling if you can't set up limit.

Setting up a limit if you are addicted to things is really hard. When you experienced getting addicted to something, you are the one finding a way to do what you are addicted with. For example, you are busy doing the projects that you're company is doing and you don't have time to gamble, most of the time this kind of people find a way like he's sick or their family is sick and he will be the one taking care of it. You can't just stop gambling from setting some limits, you must first realized how deep you are in on wasting your money instead of using it for some things that can really help you.
2853  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What to do with the Unsold Tokens? on: July 27, 2018, 12:32:27 PM
I think some of projects are using circulation system, that is, adding unsold token into the circulation exchange gradually

Just hold your coins and wait for the price to pump up, always remember that the market is volatile so your coins will still has the chance to grow its price if the project is really good.

Even if you hold your coins, it will be bad if the developers decided not to burn the unsold tokens. The reason they are burning it is that to keep the price high and wanting to make their token in demand. And with lower supply circulating in the market, it has a high possibility of having a good price in the future but the problem is the bounty hunters selling off quickly the tokens in so low price.
2854  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Season on: July 27, 2018, 11:16:42 AM
This season I will also bet on Rockets, even if Melo is unsure attack option and defensive side might be a struggle (Ariza left).

I don't know what is the Rockets are thinking, they don't have that much power on offense and I think they really want to fight there enemies offensively, we don't know what will happen but I guess that will really be a thing.

Also, I am looking at LA Lakers line up and I guess Lebron is really being surrounded by good players, I don't know how will they play but they are also a team to look for.

Of course, wherever the king goes is where the eyes are. With so much popularity and exposure for lebron, I think the lakes will lure the attention of every team while the golden states are lurking and waiting to gab the Larry obrein trophy for the third time.

It is not that King is in the fans eyes but it just that every one is expecting something to what will happen to the revenge of Lebron to the GSW to the past NBA Finals. Everyone is expecting that the King will have this revenge every seasons but that is not happening especially with his team last season. With Lebron having great teammates this season, his fans are expecting more though some Laker fans are not happy with it.
2855  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is best practice for gambling?? on: July 26, 2018, 03:07:18 PM
Some people ay heed to this kind of advice which is kind of logical already if you think about it. But there are also a lot who value gambling more than other people. Everything gets thrown out the window when they're seated in a casino.

Right. There are many people who ignore other things when they are having fun at the gambling table. Gambling is their only hope and usually they don't care about the risks that might occur and they can't solve it. The best practice is to manage our emotions and finances so that gambling will not bring us to the brink of misery.

Well, it will be better if you can just control yourself rather relying on managing your finances and emotions. Most of the gambler can't really stop themselves from gambling, that is the worst that could happen to people, to not control yourself and just let yourself be eaten by your addiction. If you can't stop it, then just keep on trying especially if you have a family relying on your salary.
2856  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: how long you can stay without gambling? on: July 26, 2018, 12:14:48 PM
Yes gambling is addicting. It's an easy and quick money. Luckily I'm not get addicted to it and I'm afraid to. Hopefully I can control myself when I'm in a losing streak

That is usually the problem to these gamblers since they can stop themselves from gambling when they are in the losing streak, but the real problem is that they won't know if they are in a losing streak or in a winning streak since their goal is to just win their gambling activities. Gambling is said to be an easy way to earn money, but the problem is that it is the easiest way but it is also the easiest way to lose your money. I can stop myself from gambling and I can also control my gambling activities and stay for a long time without it.
2857  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling addiction mainly due to loneliness and dissatisfaction? on: July 26, 2018, 11:03:27 AM
Gambling addiction is different from drug addiction in terms of reasoning from someone who is into it. Addiction in gambling is because people are dissatisfied with what they already won in a gambling, and tend to lose it all even if they know they are not winning the game.

There are a lot of reasons why people are getting addicted and they usually end up taking drugs, gambling and usually being a shut in in their houses playing games and being an addict to social media or the internet. Depression, family and financial problem are some of the most problems they usually face and they are finding a way to forget any of them by being addicted to something, and yes, every addiction has the same solutions. Their addiction varies in their environment.
2858  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Season on: July 25, 2018, 01:38:16 PM
I think the champs this year will either be the Warriors or Rockets.  I don't really see any other team being able to compete with their offenses. 

There are a lot of assumptions about that since GSW is really OP right now. The contract of Cousins into GSW will be a huge impact, another percentage added to them being the 2019 NBA Champion but Lebron is on LA, I think we still need to see what will happen.

This league has become a three point shooting league so that is what it takes to win in this era.  It will be interesting if another Shaq type player comes along and turns the NBA upside down again with dominant inside play.

It is, REALLY! and it will be a long time again until we see another players dominating the inside plays, it is more excited in the past where the plays are really getting in and dunking it in, times like Vince Carter
2859  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The consequences of gambling on: July 25, 2018, 12:21:45 PM
Successful gamblers are not greedy and they enjoyed doing it with strict limitations according to their limits. Most of these people if not all have also good source of income outside gambling.

That is right, I know some people that became successful on gambling and betting, most of them usually are on lotteries. I do admire most of them getting out of their gambling activities, but some of them still gamble. Even though they still gamble, most of them usually has build businesses that can back up their addiction and some of them started building Gambling businesses.
2860  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can anyone teach me? on: July 25, 2018, 11:57:01 AM
Poker is not easy as to understand requires some skill and experience as you have to win against the dealer and other people. It requires your good understanding and high command over the game to make things work for you.

This is the more reason why I don't think people should even play poker or even gamble anymore. I am not saying that Gambling is a bad thing but when the urge of gambling for you is to earn money, you should stop it. If you really want to gamble and play Poker, there are a lot of mobile and PC applications where you can play Poker.
