A lot of rich people who don't know where to spend money, gamble very often, a lot of celebrities and just many popular people were caught by paparazzis. For me that statistics isn't very interesting because it's very easy to obtain but what I want to know is how many celebrities actively gamble on bitcoin related casinos, that would really be an interesting to see.
3102  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Less price = more profit? on: March 19, 2019, 09:33:22 PM
Less price = less demand, not more profit. When there is huge supply but demand is low, price falls. You can imagine this on any altcoin which isn't manipulated. Most demanded coin is bitcoin, none altcoin has ever surpassed it's price. But you may ask why was ripple over ethereum with low price? Ripple's current circulating supply is more than 40x of ether's supply.
So from all of this, less price doesn't mean more profit, depends on coin because maybe it has zero chance to become popular because doesn't promise something that worths for crypto users. But you may find coin where less price = more profit. Also it's very hard to determine what is less price, especially when coin is new. For example a lot of people were in trouble when they bought Zcash in the begining.
3103  Economy / Gambling / Re: SocialBet Launches! :: Make Gambling Social Again! :: 0% House Edge on: March 19, 2019, 08:32:48 PM
I dont believe in the 0% house edge because all we know that game needs an income. But if it's true it's a great game that I want to try. And I think they only give a very small amount of information about the game. I think old gambler will not go to game like that because they think that it has a hidden information or charge against to gambler or player.

If you deposit and you can't profit from it. House "Casino" will still be able to income...
Maybe they will change it in the future and perhaps it's only for the early stages of their Project.

I think we shall make a lot of changes in SocialBet. But 1 thing will never change. House edge won't have a place in our platform. We hope, that community will donate us as we want to build a better world. Also, soon we shall publish an article with more details about our monetization.
I have never seen anyone in this world donating casino. It sounds very strange too, when I gamble, more likely I'll lose or if I win, I'll withdraw it, is donation new thing? Donation is when someone loses. If you don't think your casino will profit with 0% house edge system, then what is your hope for running of it? When you ask donation it sounds like we just donate and others win/withdraw our donation, we donate for them.

Hi

I am wondering if there is some sort of site where you can exchange your bitcoins easily to real money or idk what and transfer back so you can avoid if btc drops.

Thanks
You can easily use XAPO and similar providers where you have bitcoins in your wallet and can instantly exchange them with good fees + it offers you debit card so you can withdraw from any ATM with fixed fee or you can also use spectrocoin instead of XAPO and use their virtual/physical card which allows you to buy things online.
I don't know if you mean anothing other in avoiding btc drop.

3106  Economy / Economics / Re: The myth of crypto revolution on: March 18, 2019, 07:17:08 PM
Bitcoin isn't only currency and also there are more types of people than those who only think about profit, there are a lot who thinks on privacy and use it as a secure payment way + you can have offline wallet in just one small usb stick and store as much bitcoin as you want while you can't store millions in your home because that's unsafe + we don't want to give banks control on our money.
3107  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: BitcoinTransit .com worth developing? on: March 18, 2019, 03:47:18 PM
Actually designing something in the works now. Do you think a bitcoin ride share service is viable?

How are you going to compete against Uber, that spends billions a year on R&D?

Let the man dream Tongue

For all we know he gets a couple of million in VC funding, not likely but possible.
The domain is actually pretty good, I don't know what elda34b is saying. The name sounds pretty catchy to me.

Thank you, I'm glad the name is good! I am currently working on a simple and easy to use ride share / delivery service available for Bitcoin users.

I feel like it could be a great option for places of the world that doesn't have any ride sharing services and assisting transportation in underdeveloped areas.

Will share more on how it works soon. If anyone interested learning more about the project, feel free to send me a pm!

For now I would love your feedback on the design.

Thanks Smiley

Like design, pretty nice but for applications but to be fair it's very similar of shopping website, when I saw this template it looked like there were cars for sold.
For your domain, I would unite uber, food delivery and etc things. For example imagine uber and glovo services united in one app where we have to pay with bitcoin, domain matches pretty well. Also personally I like Glovo's design, I would make colours green or blue because so much orange isn't attractive for eyes.
3108  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: How does shapeshift/changelly work? on: March 18, 2019, 03:14:54 PM
At first the great thing changelly offers is no need of verification. They work like any service, for example gambling website which has built in exchanger but difference is following: shapeshift/changelly makes procedure super easy for you but with high fees. For example you need to exchange 1000$ worth bitcoins into etheteum, you deposit and get 960$ ethereum instantly. But they exchange that money on exchanger or have direct provider and do 1:1 rates.
3109  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think a "winning mindset" can get you what you want while gambling? on: March 18, 2019, 02:22:33 PM
Highly depends on personality, imagine when you have winning mindset and then lose a lot, this can make you very angry but this doesn't mean we mustn't have hope of win, yeah we have to be positive but we mustn't expect profit from gambling but fun, only fun if we can get it from gambling. If you enjoy it, then spending some backs just for fun is pretty normal.
3110  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Another proof that cloud mining is a scam on: March 17, 2019, 03:42:06 PM
The statement that cloud mining is scam doesn't need any more proofs, it's as easy as abc to understand that it's scam. At first imagine, why will someone mine for you while they can mine for themselves? If it's hard to understand for you, then imagine this: Why will someone print money for you while they can print it for themselves?
Cloud mining companies get great profit, you pay fixed money for hashrates, they get it, mine, charge you electricity and equipment's fees and finally you never ROI. Everyone works for their own benefit, not for your.
3111  Economy / Speculation / Re: Do a lot of western governments like bitcoin and dislike banks? on: March 14, 2019, 11:47:06 PM
I've been questioning this for a while and most economists say that fiat is a scam or a lie as the central banks are selling people a promise we will pay them back.

It seems to me as if fiat came in when it was needed to help solve the issues of carrying heavy gold for big transactions but now we have bitcoin there seems to be no other real use for it once bitcoin gets adopted by the masses (or other cryptocurrency).

It feels like fiat was made by the government without them knowing the risk as to what it would potentially lead to in the central banks artificially inflating it so much.

I was watching a video recently of the roman empire currency where they used to clip coins and melt down the clippings in order to inflate the currency - exactly what has been done since fiat hasn't been backed by anything of real value bitcoin is the same but its limited.
You say fiat isn't backed by anything of real value. For you Gold is this value, am I right? But has gold been backed by something? No, then how has it value? It's psycological factor, we measure everything by one unique thing so to my mind it doesn't matter if we use gold coins or paper notes. But the worst thing here is banking system, not actually fiat, the way bank systems are managed. Solution of bitcoin is that we can't create more than 21 million while governments can print as much paper as they want and cause inflation, they won't be able to do it with bitcoin.
3112  Economy / Gambling / Re: Primedice.com | Creators of Dicing 🎲 | 29 Billion Bets | 112+ BTC Jackpot! on: March 14, 2019, 10:19:55 PM
💰 3 people who retweet & follow will win .001 BTC!
Take a look at the timestamps from this high roller session!
That's over 48 BTC, roughly $185,000, won in a matter of seconds!


This is what we call high risk, high reward. If 2 bitcoin is just a dust amount on my total crypto holdings, I wouldn't care to gamble 2 or more than that with the hope of winning up to 48 BTC.

He lost some but continued to gamble until he reached that amount, congratulations mate!
As I see some people really do insane bets and to my mind they don't care whether they win or lose. Dice isn't a game where you have to play with strategy because it's 100% lucky based and in such situations strategy only worsens your chanses of win. When you act like you know nothing, then there is luck on your side.
Btw nice win from this person, if PD has wagering contests, it's double catch for that person.
3113  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Is a Technology, Not a Business Opportunity, TRON CEO Tells Mainstream on: March 14, 2019, 09:00:32 PM
Every technology is used for business opportunities, only Tesla was a person who didn't care about it and was keeping inventing a lot of beneficial things just for science. Yeah, bitcoin is a technology, an innovative payment method and currency at the same time but it's an ideal opportunity for financial gains. Imagine there is demand on bitcoin payment and others in your industry don't implement it for silly reasons, you implement it and attract new customers. Everything has value and you offer another currency and payment method so yeah, it's 100% business opportunity.
3114  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: After long break I started constant betting and this is what happen today? on: March 14, 2019, 07:53:12 PM
Dear community,
I am so pumped to see the positive reaction and care from all of you. I read most of the responses it most of them were inspiring. The addiction period was around 2010-2012 and after that I did not gamble until recently.

I am still in full control of my emotion. The money I deposited I lost them but I am okay with it. This is what I am doing:

- Not looking at any odds
- Not even logging in any betting account
- Focusing on very less football updates because this is where my addiction is.
- I am doing some other activities which is keeping me away to think about gambling
Get job, do something online like own website and take care of it's development, learn programming and start working on envato and etc, you'll have no time to gamble. On another hand there is nothing wrong with gambling, personally I like poker very much and often play it but play with small money and my aim isn't to make profit from it. Don't ever think you can get profit by gambling, no, there is no way. Just gamble for fun and everything will be okey.
Also ask yourself, if anyone would be able to profit from casinos, then would they exist?
3115  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: BitcoinTransit .com worth developing? on: March 14, 2019, 07:09:41 PM
I think a possible service in transportation using bitcoin is quite suitable. I’ve got some ideas. I’ll loop back Smiley

Maybe you can overthrow Uber.  Tongue

Anything you can build based on cryptos, they can simply add crypto to their established infrastructure.  Smiley
Good idea, domain is pretty good to my mind. You can make Uber like service and offer payment in crypto but also keep fiat because I think currently number of Taxi users who would like to pay with crypto is very, very low.
On another hand your domain would be great for shipping forward service because of it's name transit.
Btw I don't think name will be good for trading + if you plan to do it, you need a huge amount of money + great developers in order to keep website secure.
3116  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin is difficult to rise above the price of $ 4000?? on: March 14, 2019, 06:02:32 PM
i think there is some resistance at 4200 ... if the last fall mean bitcoin will be stronge more than now .
we must buy as we can now and above 4000 
evryone should buy now and not tommorow ( lomg term need short term) ...why wait for buying bitcoin !!
$4000 seems to be a resistance barrier that needs to be overcome to grow further. Once it crossed it, but in short term once again it fell back low to $4000. When this resistance barrier gets exploded and the price cross $4500 we can expect gradual growth in the market. Until then the value will fluctuate within limits.
I agree with you but why is I still can't understand 4000$ resistance barrier because mining isn't profitable + everyone wants high price. Sometimes price become 4K usd which I thought would cause tise but no, it quickly felt.  I think 4500$ is still low, bitcoin needs huge and quic rise like it happened in past when price rised from 10K to 14K in few days.
3117  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ecommerce projects to help boost mainstream adoptions? on: March 14, 2019, 05:33:19 PM
Btw I am amazed why amazon and ebay don't add bitcoin payment? At least I think it will be normal if ebay give users right to choose btc payment over paypal but seems ebay tries to promote paypal and amazon - amazon payment.
On anothet hand ecommerce which supports bitcoin payment of course boosts mainstream adoption. Owner benefits because can attract those who only use bitcoin or prefer to use it + new users search information about bitcoin when they see it as a payment option.
3118  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Just Started to Accept Bitcoin in my Espresso Bar on: March 13, 2019, 07:35:28 PM
Congrats OP, it's a good step. But on another hand I am very interested in how beneficial btc payment implementation will be for you. So can you answer me on these questions?
1. How good is your bar's location? Is it located in areas which is full of tourists or it's mostly for those who live nearby?
2. How much transactions have been done since you implemented it? If there was any, how much was on bitcoin and on bitcoin cash.
3119  Economy / Gambling / Re: Stake.com 2 Just Launched! New games, updated design 💎💣🎰🎲♠️ on: March 13, 2019, 06:13:15 PM
Hey I feel if Stake decides to have it’s own coin it’ll be a nice idea, they could study Bitdice model wherein their csno coins gives dividends to the holder and allows them to play with it in Bitdice. In my personal opinion if Stake decides to make a coin of their own it’ll become quiet popular, and if Stake can give dividends for holding it people will definitely buy and hodl it. It’s also pertinent to note that for the coin to be launched Stake needs to have a blue print on how it’ll use the funds, it’s roadmap for the future.
A typical ICO thingy and I think they are aware of that.

It would be great if they will get the same idea from what you suggested but I think stake will come up with something unique or with additional features.
Well, based on this https://medium.com/@stakecasino/launch-of-the-races-forum-rewards-and-huge-plans-for-next-year-7207aa9ae3ec, their goals is quite big in 2019, maybe stake can consider an ico if they need more funds which is unlikely to happen.
Wow, didn't know their plans and even this medium article too. Seems they are going to add sports betting and poker which will be really amazing, some websites have added sportsbook recently but not poker, can't wait to see it, also hope they will have traffic on poker.
edisystem
As you know primedice and stake are owned by same team, so I think during this time they were collecting profit and now are ready to launch new games with neccessary budget, so no need of ico.
3120  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin has no practical use and could be damaging to the economy! on: March 13, 2019, 04:13:07 PM
That's ok, take it easy, you can't expect much from people who have zero knowledge or say lies because of their good wealth.
Do they have any arguments? No of course. It's 100% clear that banking system is very bad. They give loans, then we pay back with high feed and this continued endlessly and finally huge amouny of money gets in bank and reduces im society.
Nothing to talk about it, bitcoin offers quick transactions with very low fees, we can protect our privacy, have control on our money and we don't depend on banks.
