3081  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: A no-Bitcoin friend turned a old Bitcoiner on: June 20, 2023, 06:41:46 AM
Why would someone try to hide their Bitcoin involvement from their friends that tried to teach them all this while?

I feel somehow about my friend because I just found out that he has been into Bitcoin for a long time, probably before me, what's surprising to me is whenever I tried to enlighten him about Bitcoin he always Shawn me down and say he has no interest..

Today I get to know from a relative of his, who thought that we are into Bitcoin investment together, a coincidence that brings up some suspicious thought, now I am left with thoughts of why he was hiding this all along from me?

At first I though maybe he was scared bringing me along, but it doesn't make any sense because I thought I knew better than him and I needed to teach him.

What do you think is probably ongoing here?


The person is hiding his involvement with Bitcoin and crypto-currencies because of privacy issue. There are many people who hold huge amounts in Bitcoin and they never share the thing with anyone. I even saw someone who hold Bitcoin rejected the fact that Bitcoin is trusted, because a few people don't want others to be financially stable and that's why they use the game of discouragement. The secretive people always hold their assets without anyone's knowledge and they won't share their secrets with anyone, not even with their spouses.

What I recommend you is to not mention Bitcoin of anything related to it in front of your that friend because it isn't worthy to continue a conversation about a thing that other party is trying to ignore. You don't even need to share your knowledge with him or ask him anything about Bitcoin and his investment on it. You should also try to not let your friendship bond breaks because of his behavior, and you should keep in mind that everyone is not willing to share their investments with others.
3082  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Luck is what you need in gambling but you have to get to work with trading on: June 20, 2023, 06:30:10 AM
I have read many discussions about trading and gambling, some people have rather joined the two as gambling. That is not totally true. For traders who agree that trading is same with gambling, they are just lazy to go into work and adopt the ethical way to trade and those are:

1. To cut your losses and increase your profit: You can conveniently do this by using stop loss or take profit adjustment or trailing stop but in gambling, is one straight end once you have gone on the bet, you either loss all you bet or win or you bet for.

2. A trader can adjust his risk appetite by reducing the lots size to suit his account and determine his appropriate leverage but in gambling, a bettor has to go with the odds provided for the gay. He can't reduce or increase it against the fixed odds.

3. Traders use analytical tools to determine what market price will be and wait for appropriate timing but gamblers play by the rules of casino.

Trading is not gambling. You require luck in gambling but you require work in trading.

What is your thought.

Trading and gambling are totally different things and they don't have any relation with each other at all. A trader is a person who has mastered the skill of trading and has gained enough knowledge about the market that he/she could have many profitable trades without any problem. The trading is a conscious thing and it doesn't involve luck as far as I know, because in trading, experience matters not the luck. A trader can earn a lot of money with a good trading strategy and a working plan. A trader can sometimes lose money when the stop-loss is reached, however a trader won't lose the whole capital in a shot if he/she is not leveraging the money as futures trader.

A gambler just gambles and that's the only definition for it. The field of gambling is highly dependent on someone's luck and is very less dependent on someone's skills. There are many casino games which are purely luck oriented and only those people who are lucky could makes profit out of gambling. The gambling is an activity that could cause addiction in the minds of the gamblers while trading doesn't cause any kind of addiction. A gambler throws the money into dust and it could all be wasted or can return with 2x or more, while a trader never throws the money into dust because a trader only places trades when market is according to his/her strategy and trading plan.

Your argument is technically logical and I enjoy the fact that you don't understand that both gambling and trading require an ample amount of luck, strategy and work to be able to earn the best out of it.
Although, for gambling it requires most times, the right mood and sufficient luck to win big after many failed attempt.

The work involved in trading is where you get to know mindfully the right time to buy or sell asset that will of course make you profit. Where this doesn't happen, loss limited to a certain fraction is incurred. A wise trader would know the amount of funds to trade with mostly if he/she is one that follows the trends and news updates.
Whereas a gamblers fate is a result of a sooner than expected outcome.

I don't think that trading requires any kind of luck, it's a pure skill-based approach that requires hard-work and experience.  I agree that trading requires a proper strategy to work successfully, but in case of gambling the luck factor is far superior than strategy. I have seen many gamblers loosing a lot of money even with a very strong strategy, and on the other hand the gamblers with same strategy earned huge profits. Trading is a learnable skill and anyone who give enough time to learning and gaining of experience can make some good profits with the help of trading.

A wise trader is the one who studies the market and is well-aware of the volatility of the market. The strategy a trader uses depends upon the conditions of the market because you can't use same strategy for bull/bear market. Both of the market conditions require different approaches that a trader should master in order to earn consistent income from trading. A gambler is just a gambler and he/she could lose a lot of bets if luck isn't in their favor. Although, I agree that a gambler could save himself/herself from huge losses with a good strategy, but when luck is totally down then no strategy will work for the gambler.

What is your honest review of the Demo account?
Do you think that should spend so much time trading on a demo account? I believe that in demo trading, there are no real consequences for losing "money". If you notice, the pain is different than the one felt when you actually experience a loss on a live account. Demo trading simply helps the newbie get acquainted with the trading platform, and it should only be for a few weeks. Compared to  live trading, demo trading lacks the ability to mental and emotional resilience. For me, the real trading education starts where demo trading ends. What do you think?


I'm totally against the demo account because I think a trader will never learn real trading experience with a demo account. The person is trading with virtual money and there is no gain or loss during the process. A trader who isn't having any emotions during trading process is totally a newbie trader because he/she would never learn what the trading is, and how losing could cause sadness and emotional damage. A trader who does trading with real money learns the steps with experience that how he/she could save his/her current capital and earn more money with the help of trading. Such traders always try their best to do proper technical analysis and research the news articles related to the pair they are trading.

A good level of trader is not created over night, a good trader becomes good because of experience of trading with real money. During the process of trading the trader learns from his/her mistakes and fixes those mistakes in next trades. The more a trader trades the higher experienced he/she becomes. The trading experience is not only limited to learning technical analysis only. A trader also needs to learn other skills like emotional control during the trading session. If a trader has no control over his/her emotions then such traders can never be profitable in long run.

This is crazy. Not sure how I didn’t se it sooner (or if I did then I forgot). I couldn’t imagine making such a massive bet. OP must be a wealthy dude to be able to toss nearly six figures at a sporting event. Props for doing it publicly and announcing it beforehand. That must have been one hell of a nervous game to watch.

The OP is hurt and he might be weeping after the loss, but what else he can do now other than regretting. I feel really bad for the guy and like you I also saw the post right now, but felt very bad after seeing him losing the whole money. The OP could withdraw half of the money and would enjoy his life for many years, however when someone becomes too greedy then that person get blind and his/her mind stops working because of greed. The guy has done a great mistake and he would always remember the event. I hope that others including me would learn from the mistake of the OP, and we should never ever do something like this. Luck doesn't favor all the time and in sports it really doesn't, it's one of the best lessons which a gambler could learn.

If you have the idea of how much you'll win or lose then that's the better way of gambling. Because if you lose, that's okay and that is because you know what you're losing.

And as you gamble, you know how much you can potentially gain so you'll gamble and try it. But Bob, you can't stop most gamblers because it's all about the money.

Whilst it's like that you're against the idea, everyone wants to win and take the money with them.

Brother, this is the fact am talking and talking and talking about self-control. YOU MUST DECIDE AND FOLLOW THE WIN AND LOSS LIMIT BEFORE GAMBLING. Then do the best to fight for it. This is why it is Super hard to become a pro. I have supplyed details on Update 2 and 3 on major content. This is the only way with hope to be them.
It's like a protection before you gamble and you know what you're asking as you gamble. I don't have plans to be a professional gambler, I like the usual approach that I do.

No pressure at all and just enjoying whenever I want to.

And if there are gamblers that are thinking of going too much with their potentials, that's all up to them and they know what they're entering and it's not going to be easy for sure.
Well, the truth though, as I understand it to be, is that, nothing in life that involves making money is easy after all, most especially when luck is not on the person's side, I personally have once taken a shot at becoming a professional gambler, that is trying to see if gambling is something that I could really depend on for a living, but for the first time I gambled with that mindset, I lost everything and almost lost my life in the process, 🤣, I did not bother going further because that was already enough sign that I was about to embark on a journey that might swallow me even before I know what I'm doing.

I think nothing is more pleasing and stress free, as just gambling for the fun, no pressure of any kind, no depression, no anxiety, no fear, no sleepless night as a result of thinking how to repay borrowed money..

You are the dude have similar situation as me. Let me give u my debt paying off plan may can supply some ideas to you. When gambler lose all and in debt, homeless looks like will happen 100% for sure. Okay. Now except going to jail things,  no matter what you do, don’t let that happen. Parents home, friend’s couch..The first step is super super super important. In simple words, if I break the day stop-loss or stop-win rules set by my own, I quit gamble forever. The second is setting a reasonable win or lose target. I used to bet hundreds of dollars per round. In the sky city casino Auckland, played $5,000 per round on Roulette. Now I play on Stake, set stop-win order on $30 for the day. And $100 stop-loss in one day. Too small? Haha, if you can do it for years, you are the top on top in gamblers. Or 100% professional. Because all of us know over 95% gamblers lose. For years, 99% will lose. If you think it deep and have unbeatable desire to gamble, casinos will be your heaven. Or hell.

You have learned a lot from your mistakes and that's a good thing my friend because playing $5,000 a single round of Roulette is insane, someone could lose a lot of money doing that. I think you also might have faced a lot of losses when you were playing at Sky City Casino, and it would be great if you can share some of the biggest losses you had during those very high value bets. There kind of things really inspire those gamblers who bet low because most of the times high bets come with high losses.

I think your new limits are quite good because $30 a day is enough money for a day and you'll earn more than $900 per month doing that, but you should also share that have you faced those days where you have lost $100 and then you stopped? I think that would be interesting thing to hear. I agree with you that almost 99% gamblers lose in gambling and only few lucky ones win consistently.  It's always better to win less rather than losing everything.

Next words will be a little rude and brutal. Since I assumed you have same situation here. Now, let analyze some true factors we have currently. No cash, no source of income, no support from family and friends, in debt. Let me put it more emotionally, no hope, no motivation, no close relationships, no direction. This is the real environment for gamblers especially for fresh ones every day. What we got? Time!!! Invest on your time with patience. Lose $100? Happen once per month maybe. Sometimes in two months. This is the bottom line for being the pros. This stop-loss on $100 just as insurance for accident. If you always call insurance company, you will face only two consequences. One is huge fee for next year. Two, the insurance company will put you on blacklist. Just take that $100 for insurance. $30 profit? With hours playing time? Come on brother, if you still have no idea how to gain that profit in long term, maybe better to quit gambling. Any 50/50 game win change game.

I like your style brother, you have told the truth and that needs guts. Everything you said is right and I'm sure that your information could be helpful for others. If that $100 stop-loss thing happens once a month then it's better to ignore it and have patience to learn and gamble better. I agree that the stop-loss is always there for insurance that there won't be more bets if the limit is reached. I'm pretty sure that a good gambler won't allow those limit to reach, and an addict would cross the limit with each gambling session. I truly appreciate your bold way of speaking, only few people could answer the things which most people would love to keep as secret. I'm sure that you'll increase your daily profit limit and stop-loss limit in future if you achieve better understanding of the games that you are gambling with. However, increasing it or not is your personal choice, and you better know what's best for you.
3091  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: 4 Altcoins to look at in 2023 on: June 19, 2023, 07:12:01 PM
Your list is not good because all of those coins expect Ethereum are useless and they won't grow too much in coming bull market. Only Ethereum has the potential to grow huge in the coming bull run. I think if you're really into altcoins then your first priority in current situation should be Lite coin because that thing has potential to 2x or more in coming bull run because it will also have a halving event in final quarter of this year.

Other than LTC I recommend you to go with BNB because the coin can grow to very high levels in coming bull run. Other than those the only competent coin that I think can grow is value would be Arbitrum because that coin also has potential to grow 2-4x or more during next bull run. You can also go with many other useless pump and dump coins that can grow in value more than 6-10x in the coming bull run, but it's really hard to find the genuine ones that could grow that much. I would recommend everyone to avoid those altcoins that have no good use case.

Sri Lanka VS UAE
The third match of the World Cup Qualifier Sri Lanka vs UAE starts today. United Arab Emirates is a weak side as Sri Lanka's opponent. I think Sri Lanka will win today's match. Because Sri Lanka's bowling line batting line is better than UAE. Who do you think will win today's match?
I think Sri Lanka has a chance to win today's match. We know that Sri Lanka is a much stronger team than United Arab Emirates team. But if United Arab Emirates can bat first and perform well in bowling, then today's match with Sri Lanka team is very good.  It will be a tight fight. I think Sri Lanka will play very well in this match and will win the match today.

That's true and I also think that Sri Lanka has advantage over UAE's team, and they could possibly win the match. The current score of Sri Lanka is over 292, and they still have 4 more hours for scoring even higher runs in this match. I don't think that team UAE will be able to cross the score because they don't have many good batsman who could score higher than that. We should also keep in mind that Sri Lankan team has some good bowlers in their team who won't let UAE players to score higher runs. Let's see what will be the result of the match, and currently the odds are in the favor of Sri Lanka team.
At the end of the first innings against the United Arab Emirates, Sri Lanka managed to score 355 runs for six wickets in 50 overs. In other words, to win this match, UAE must score more than 7 runs in each over, which is very difficult for a team like United Arab Emirates. If UAE could have bowled under control then they would have had some chance of winning but UAE will never win on this huge target. That's why I said don't win because Sri Lanka has several professional spins who can destroy the batting line-up of United Arab Emirates at any moment.  

Now there is an innings break and in a short time, United Arab Emirates will take the field to chase the target of 356 runs against Sri Lanka.

Finally the match is over and Sri Lanka team got huge victory against UAE team. They won the match by 175 runs and that's a disastrous loss for UAE team. UAE team is quite new and immature to play against other teams and they can't win a team like Sri Lanka with their current team members. Ali Nasser and Vriitya Aravind are some of the good batsman of the UAE team, but other players aren't that good in batting and that's one of the reasons of their loss. The UAE team will need a lot more experience to win against tough teams like West Indies and Sri Lanka, but I believe that within few years they will have many good players. And, after that they might compete well against teams like West Indies and Sri Lanka, and other good team.

Thanks SanReomo. I decided to take your advice and use the small "s" with the two dots. I set it as a prefix rather than a suffix as well. Once I've got this concept stabilised in my head. I'll adds a descriptive page to guide potential users. I'd be grateful for some more opinions though.

I've found another problem with the conversion. The cart only allows 5 decimal places for the conversion rate. When Bitcoin increases in value ( as it is sure to do ) then the Bitcoin value is going to be approximate.


You are most welcome bro! Yeah, setting it as prefix is also a quite good choice and it will appear very nice on the cart. But, I recommend you to try both the suffix version as well the prefix version, and whichever of them appears better, you should lock that one as the final choice. The final decision is yours my friend because you can decide best for your site.

Regarding the issue of decimal places you could check the API of the cart system and if it allows modifications  then you can modify it and increase the limit. You should also try to find plugins that might allow to extend the limit to higher number of decimal places. If none of those is helpful then you may hire a temporary developer who could add that extension to your current cart system, but I'm sure you won't need the developer for that because you'll sort it out yourself.

I have found that in Woocommerce admin user can increase the number of decimal places to 7 or maybe more. I have done some research on Google to find that how we could possibly change the number of decimal places in a shopping cart and after reading many articles and stackoverflow posts I have found something that could be useful for you.

Following are some links that you should read:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/49550127/change-number-of-decimals-in-woocommerce-cart-totals
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/override-decimal-places-in-cart/

I hope you will sort out the problem yourself after reading those posts. Best of luck Jet Cash, and if you need further support then feel free to ask questions here or in inbox. I would love to help you as much as I possibly can!

The best place to store ordinals is in the trash bin. Bitcoin is a medium of exchange of money, not fantasies.

Ah, trash bin is still for reputable garbage, the better way to send those is sewage because they deserve such kind of treatment. The useless ordinals are worse then germs and bacteria which cause disease in humans, because these useless ordinals are causing disease in our beloved blockchain and they deserve to be flushed in a sewage. I feel pity for those people who created ordinals, what a shameful life they are living. They can't harm Bitcoin and its blockchain because the community is against those useless jpeg files and we never accept such useless files to infiltrate our blockchain.

I've had some further thoughts on this, especially in relation to Sterling. If I want to list an item for 5 pounds, then I can print £5, but if it is only 5 pence, then I can list it as 5p. I'm going to adopt the same concept with Satoshi. ie. 50 Satoshi will be 50s. I'm hoping that this won't appear similar to 505 in some fonts.

If you guys want to  see how this works, then you can check the currency button in the top right hand corner of the cart home page -
The Save old Cars cart with Bitcoin and Satoshi payment options


Hey Jet Cash this one sounds promising to me. I have found some symbols that you can consider instead of simple "s" and they might be helpful for you. I will paste the links of the sites that are offering those 's' symbols which are better than simple written "s." Here is an example of one such symbol 50ṩ and I'm quite sure that no one will see it as 505 in some fonts. Here are the links of the symbols.

I think it will get too complex to use milli- or pico- as prefixes to the Bitcoin logo. I'm just going to have to stay with "SAT" until there is a new standard. I don't think that I'll be adding any alts, but I mauy have to add the new CBDC when it arrives. I'm tempted to include gold or silver, but I guess that would mean sovereigns.

I think we can make that symbol with some graphic design skills. Only a single S is quite preferable symbol of Satoshi rather than SAT, I'm sorry I'm not against SAT, but that sounds unprofessional is quite similar to the SAT tests kind of thing. I'll give it a try and update my reply when I'm done. I'm not good at graphic design by any means, but giving it a try won't cost me anything, and who knows someone with better graphic design skills can create a quite useful one after being inspired by my version.

Parents home, friend’s couch..The first step is super super super important. In simple words, if I break the day stop-loss or stop-win rules set by my own, I quit gamble forever. The second is setting a reasonable win or lose target. I used to bet hundreds of dollars per round. In the sky city casino Auckland, played $5,000 per round on Roulette. Now I play on Stake, set stop-win order on $30 for the day. And $100 stop-loss in one day. Too small? Haha, if you can do it for years, you are the top on top in gamblers. Or 100% professional. Because all of us know over 95% gamblers lose. For years, 99% will lose. If you think it deep and have unbeatable desire to gamble, casinos will be your heaven. Or hell.

You have learned a lot from your mistakes and that's a good thing my friend because playing $5,000 a single round of Roulette is insane, someone could lose a lot of money doing that. I think you also might have faced a lot of losses when you were playing at Sky City Casino, and it would be great if you can share some of the biggest losses you had during those very high value bets. There kind of things really inspire those gamblers who bet low because most of the times high bets come with high losses.

I think your new limits are quite good because $30 a day is enough money for a day and you'll earn more than $900 per month doing that, but you should also share that have you faced those days where you have lost $100 and then you stopped? I think that would be interesting thing to hear. I agree with you that almost 99% gamblers lose in gambling and only few lucky ones win consistently.  It's always better to win less rather than losing everything.

If the creator of Bitcoin Elon Musk, with a high probability someday Elon himself will say this and provide proofs

That's one of the craziest theories about real identity of Satoshi.

Everyone has their own theory regarding Satoshi, and this guy called Elon Musk as Satoshi. I must confirm you my friend that Elon Musk rejected the people's claims who called him Satoshi Nakamoto, and somehow he pointed that Nick Szabo had the same ideas like Satoshi and he could be Satoshi Nakamoto. However, I'm very sure that Nick also rejected those people's claims who considered him Satoshi.

Some people recently considered Steve Jobs as Satoshi Nakamoto, and that was done only because Apple included a copy of Bitcoin whitepaper in their operating system. So, these allegations and claims will remain the part of the game and I'm very sure that the original Satoshi Nakamoto will remain anonymous. I don't think he even needs to reappear to confirm that he's the real creator of Bitcoin. His idea behind creation of Bitcoin came into light of the day and that's more than enough for him.

I just watch in youtube if many zombie in kensington Philadelphia, why police didn't catch them?,

The video you have seen on Youtube is totally fake and is work of fiction created by Youtubers to entertain the public. Those videos demonstrate the ability of the creators who have created such piece of art. Their intention to create those videos is to entertain the public and earn revenue form Youtube AdSense program. The police official might know about the videos and that's why they are not taking any actions against such things because in reality none of those exist.

Don't just blindly trust such videos and do deep research before getting to any conclusion. The creators mostly love the idea of creating something that has the element of horror in it so that the audience would love to watch it and share it with their friends and loved ones. If we blindly trust those videos then we may develop fear in our hearts and which isn't a good thing my friend.

Sri Lanka VS UAE
The third match of the World Cup Qualifier Sri Lanka vs UAE starts today. United Arab Emirates is a weak side as Sri Lanka's opponent. I think Sri Lanka will win today's match. Because Sri Lanka's bowling line batting line is better than UAE. Who do you think will win today's match?
I think Sri Lanka has a chance to win today's match. We know that Sri Lanka is a much stronger team than United Arab Emirates team. But if United Arab Emirates can bat first and perform well in bowling, then today's match with Sri Lanka team is very good.  It will be a tight fight. I think Sri Lanka will play very well in this match and will win the match today.

That's true and I also think that Sri Lanka has advantage over UAE's team, and they could possibly win the match. The current score of Sri Lanka is over 292, and they still have 4 more hours for scoring even higher runs in this match. I don't think that team UAE will be able to cross the score because they don't have many good batsman who could score higher than that. We should also keep in mind that Sri Lankan team has some good bowlers in their team who won't let UAE players to score higher runs. Let's see what will be the result of the match, and currently the odds are in the favor of Sri Lanka team.
