2861  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Many cryptocurrencies — how important is that for you in casinos? on: May 05, 2020, 05:25:15 PM
It is important for me because it gives me a lot of option to gamble, when a casino does not only accept bitcoin, that would be good for us since altcoins are more faster and cheaper when it comes to transaction (sending/receiving), and it does not only help the gamblers but it will also help the casinos to gain more gamblers since they provide a lot of payment option, for me, I mix my transaction, sometimes its BTC, sometimes its ETH.
I don't know what you are talking when you said it gives you a lot of option to gamble coz basically in any platform there should be just one universal used cryptocurrency in gambling like what most of platforms are using right now is BTC or mBTC because it would be a lot more complicated when different users are using different currencies to play simply due to the conversion rates from the market volatility. So it is either you'll play with bitcoin or USD. I guess what the OP is trying to say is the deposit method for alternative rather than just using bitcoin.

You should go for Atomic wallet, they have staking and swap, you can hold bitcoins, altcoins, and even tokens. Read a Lil about it, start using it and I'm sure you will love it just as i do.

Here is the download link: https://atomicwallet.io/
Atomic wallet is an open designed to store the data just to your device, well talking about open source wallet, it is pretty safe when you have set it up correctly honestly something could go wrong if you mistakenly forget something when setting it up. Coinbase has earned so much reputation from being an exchange, running for long years seems to be great so the coinbase wallet is a thing for their top exchange, there is no doubt it is built just like the exchange, pretty fast and secure.

we have the same conditions. the current pandemic is causing so many crises and generating so much unemployment. we know that so many bills that need to be paid because of this, now I suggest looking for income online. quite a lot of online businesses that are out there. don't let this turn off your skills to stay creative at making money.
Yeah man, I didn't think it would come this far. It's been two months since we are lock down in our city, government's relief seems to be not enough given that I have an extra family members and our stock foods are getting out for good. My company does not have any alternative policy for us, we don't have that work-from-home policy and we are just literally sitting in couch every single day but yea this is the outcome of the pandemic. I'm holding btc and other couple of alts, hoping that these coins will lift me up on quarantine days ahead. I hope it won't be extended so I can work my ass out.
2864  Economy / Economics / Re: Btc going to 2k or 3k or 7k or 9k on: May 04, 2020, 05:15:47 PM
The market is currently very unpredictable. The price of Bitcoin is now affected by many mutually exclusive factors. If you are afraid of losing money, it is better not to trade cryptocurrency, because the markets are feverish. But high volatility attracts the attention of those who are willing to take risks and invest in these turbulent times. You should still keep in mind the diversification of risks.
why can't it be predicted? in my opinion the market is very predictable, especially when bitcoin prices touch $ 3800 and $ 4000, you should already know that the price of Bitcoin will go up because of FOMO Halving, when it was in March bitcoin touched $ 3800, and an increase of 100% more now prices to $ 8800, it should You know
Are you joking or this is some kind of sarcasm that I can't contain? " Market is very predictable", there is the word predictable and emphasize with adverb very which absolutely makes you a narrow minded kind of person. Sorry for the word but that's the only thing I can say with your judgment. I just can't really get what are you trying to say with very predictable, have you tried trading bitcoin before at least once?

you should already know that the price of Bitcoin will go up because of FOMO Halving, when it was in March bitcoin touched $ 3800, and an increase of 100% more now prices to $ 8800, it should You know
  Huh  teach me to predict then ! lol
2865  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The 2020 Bitcoin Halving: See what'll Definitely Happen. on: May 04, 2020, 04:48:03 PM
On top of that is the price of bitcoin, it is very high right now that I don't think it could go beyond the ceiling or making a new ATH.

how do you define "high" because that is a comparative thing. so what are you comparing bitcoin with when you claim its price is "high" and can not increase? keep in mind that you can't just choose an arbitrary number and say it is high because it is close to your arbitrary number.
Well I guess he said it is "high" because he mentioned the past 2 halving events. High in price compared to the past halving?

I know you're also skeptical about this year's halving coz almost everybody does. There are pretty much speculation that it will explode and the others says it won't. It is really hard to deliver words for the halving that will happen in less than 10 days, the uncertainty of it makes the market more interesting yet scary. And yes, we are not really sure that halving always impact the price of bitcoin positively, we cannot rely on that data having no basis.
2866  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can bitcoin halving make cryptocurrencies reach all time high again? on: May 04, 2020, 03:51:11 PM
This time it is possible that bitcoin will return to the ATH level but provided that the economy must recover in time. Now people are holding a lot of cash and they don't dare to invest yet. We are all waiting for confirmation from the WHO or European countries for disease control. That news is really important and a prerequisite to help increase the price of bitcoin. So from now on let's pray for the disease to be controlled soon, we will have a chance to invest with a very high probability of winning.

Although bitcoin can reach all-time high again, we still need to wait for some time because we don't know when the bitcoin price will increase so high and will be more than $20k. People now are waiting for the next update from their government so they can know what they should do because of the pandemic still not over. But the bitcoin halving can be the best time for bitcoin to lift the price to the highest price and maybe we will see another ATH soon.
I must agree on this, even we've already passed the 2 halving phases we are still uncertain of what could happen next since we got into different situation right now which is global pandemic, economic crisis and Trade war (although it seems that it stopped for a while due to corona virus) But let us count the factor that the best market to invest today is the cryptocurrency not just because the stock market is down but because of the fact that cryptocurrency has seen substantial growth for the past weeks, crypto is the first thing that comes to the mind of the people when we talk about investment these days.
2867  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and health 🤕symptoms on: May 04, 2020, 02:32:09 PM
Great article showing the real problems of gambling but I don't think that the industry itself is all to blame. People are grown-ups, they have to take full responsibility for their behaviors. When someone has addiction issues, he has to figure out the way to handle with these issues. No one said life's gonna be easy.

All of us have its own demons to fight with. No matter if caused by gambling, alcohol, drugs, shopping, eating or anything else. Finding the median is the key.

That's the reason why gambling sites will ask you if you are 18+ above before you can proceed to gamble because they want to ensure that you are at the right age and you are already mature which you can make your own decision to and to stay responsible when gambling.
They are just asking, not verifying, so there would be no total standard that is being set by this platform, well it's pretty hard task to do for them to verify so it does not bother us anyways. Gambling is kind of like a vice, and when it is a vice you need to take a full responsibility of it, like a cigarette you can't get one if you don't have money to buy right? and it affects your body negatively. I hope most of us here is just gambling for the sake of entertainment, well of course to make money.

How long do you think the crisis can last after the epidemic?
What are the most likely events to occur?

  • Countries will strive for full self-sufficiency in food, energy, medicine, and means of production.
That means they should utilize all their resources and do not rely on products that is mainly only available in other countries for the mean time, budget should be set prior to the needs of the people.
  • The share of human labor in logistics, communications, and services will decrease.
Less important jobs should be in less priority, the reopening of essential company and businesses should be prioritize.
  • Remote work and virtual services will become standard.
I guess it will for the mean time, it will be great if we normalize that.
  • States will be able to better control citizens and their personal lives.
They already does, we are just naughty citizens.[/list]
2870  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Which investment is a safe haven Gold or Bitcoin? on: May 03, 2020, 04:53:38 PM
I guess gold is much safer. But I don't understand why Bitcoin and gold are constantly compared? I don't see any resemblance.

People consider both an investment so they compare. Gold has always been safer since its regulated but BTC had put itself above because it's also valuable and investors make money out of it. At this time though, BTC is the much preferred. I guess there is time for each to be safe haven when bear market comes, investors may find Gold to be safe haven as well.
It is very obvious, yet people are still asking what is the safe investment between gold and bitcoin. Obviously it would be the Gold since the price of gold is intrinsic, meaning its price reason out to be its properties that's why the value of gold differs from various karats unlike bitcoin whose price is determine through demand and supply. It is just a case for centralized asset vs decentralized asset, basically the centralized one is more safer since it is regulated.
2871  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have You Started Gambling Because You Want To Be Part Of A Gambling Campaign on: May 03, 2020, 04:20:06 PM

And then I ended up losing ~1.5 BTC

That was a huge amount if you lose it today, what was the value that time if you still remember?

Me, I am here in 2016 so I am a bit late already, but I still enjoy the bull run in 2017 and that is good enough.
I've been gambling in differnet gambling sites and never stayed in one site only, dice, roulette, sports betting and ect.. those are my games which makes me more interested in staying in the forum.
That was very unfortunate, imagine if you just hold 1.5 BTC that time, you could be a millionaire by now.

I know every one did not see bitcoin reaching $20K in price that year, 2016 to 2017 but you can see the price change at that time significantly, the bitcoin valued a thousand by 2016 but no one expected what happened after 11 months. 1.5 BTC lost in gambling is just a small amount for you, but look at it now, I bet you are regretting it by now lol.
2872  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: All your entertainment things must have an external limiting feature, agree? on: May 03, 2020, 03:48:22 PM
Well for some gambling isn't just for fun, some made the gambling a way of living not just to escape from what is in the reality. For me it is more about on being entertained along with risking and testing my fortune with a small amount of money, you know these 2 matters in online gambling. However things gets different when you are doing it physically, like for example you are playing with your friends you'll see that it is not about money or winning, it is about the fun that you guys are together.
2873  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Las Vegas Mayor Wants to Re-open Casinos. Thoughts? on: May 03, 2020, 02:21:17 PM
A selfish decision coming from a selfish mayor of a huge city.

She knows already that USA is now the epicenter of the virus and yet she is thinking things like this that may risk the lives of many people. This is stupidity. She Is just thinking of the economy of the country before the health of her countrymen. We know already what will happen to the economy of the USA after this virus. The government are continuously printing money (Quantitative easing) and for sure this will have an effect for them. I know that the economy of the US is very important because they will be beaten by the Chinese with regards to its economy but for now, they might just focus on the virus before their economy.
The Mayor of Las Vegas is in dilemma, you can't call her for doing the shots deciding what to do with the city she's leading. We all know the fact that Las Vegas is running under private businesses and companies where most of the taxes are coming from, government does not have the fund to sustain the people in the long run that's why they are trying to suggest these businesses to resume operating but at least with a guidelines. I'm sure the mayor of Las Vegas is having a headache right now, well everyone does because of this pandemic.

2876  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Las Vegas Mayor Wants to Re-open Casinos. Thoughts? on: May 02, 2020, 08:25:18 PM
I guess we already have a thread about this one, not only the casinos though but also the stadiums for baseball and more.


Bad idea of course. I do not think any responsible citizen consider them to go there. Besides, I do not think outsiders will feel the interest to go now and spend time in casinos. Maybe some local dumbasses will find a way for them to entertain in the empty casino.

It's true that businesses are struggling, employees are struggling but going back to a life where there will be gathering of people is dangerous now until we have a vaccine.
It is really a bad idea for normal people however as a mayor She's up for something. I've read she does not have the power to order these businesses to reopen, what they have is only the guidelines prior to businesses that wants to open amidst the crisis. We know Las Vegas is an expensive city you'll find hotels, restaurants, clubs every where and that's the main point of them to reopen, the heart of Las Vegas lies to those businesses. As a mayor, I don't think it's not worth letting them to reopen, and as if people wants to go clubbing?
2877  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Best platform to practice poker on: May 02, 2020, 06:12:05 PM
Have you tried youtube? I have not also much knowledge of poker. But I have tried to learn through youtube for a few days. Now I have some basic ideas about poker.  But not much. You can also try to get some help from youtube. Maybe you can get some basic ideas about it. But I don't sure about pro strategy.
You can try it with youtube, watch a couple of videos on how to play good at poker but most the videos there are quite from average player to professional level player that for some people they might find it hard to get or follow. Or you can just download a game on playstore or appstore so without spending a penny you'll get practiced to it. This is also what I did before entering online gambling though I already know how to play poker before. Just a suggestion don't get a tutor for gambling, I've seen some advertisement online regarding gambling tutorial which I find quite disturbing as a gambler.

2879  Economy / Economics / Re: Get ready for more tax. Save your BTC! on: May 01, 2020, 10:58:23 AM
I think the government with crashing economy has only 2 option for imposing taxes after the pandemic crisis, It's either they will issue an increase in taxes for the economy to quickly recover or they will stick on their taxes percentage like before the pandemic came but the economy will recover slower. Besides, if workers will pay for more taxes, let's say half of their wages are going to be in taxes, they will surely complain for it.
The government will start to save by that time, exports will be limited to necessary products only, domestic products will be fully consumed, by doing this the government's expenses will be lessen.

27 million is a shitload of money, I still don't understand how grown people still don't use bookmarks and anyway check with 2FA to get shit secured. I got a kid who occasionally falls for typosquatting but he's got a really good excuse (doesn't and can't know better as he doesn't even type) but I thought with all the education and awareness people get, they still get tricked.
Bookmarking is really needed especially when you are visiting the same website over and over again like exchanges, online wallets and online banking, this is the main target for typosquatting. What I think of this is that, the domain providers should be accountable also for giving some people the altered domain of some famous websites, is this possible in any way?

That said, Bitcoin's simply not ready for the masses when even basic internet use isn't.
This speaks a lot. This is what I'm talking about with the mainstream adoption, we are dreaming even we're not ready for it.
