321  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What stage of adoption is Crypto currently at? on: May 02, 2018, 06:39:55 AM
Just wanted to know where you guys think we are. Are we still in the early adoption stage?

At what stage of the dot com era would you put us at? Dial up lol?


I don't think that we are on an early adoption stage. People are just investing on it to get profit and not using it to buy for their everyday needs. I think we are on an experimental stage.
Bitcoin and the rest of the crypto currencies are doing exceptionally well and that the ones who are investing their money into them are very much satisfied with the earnings they are having because of investing in the crypto coins but still things are not that much well-organized as they should be.

We can call the present era as the early stage of adoption and that with time, things will be even better and the crypto coins will then be more beneficial.
322  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Your first betting? on: May 01, 2018, 10:22:05 AM
Some of us have known gambling since childhood. well, I want to ask you what your first bet is .... if I bet with my friend when playing snake ladder who will be the winner at that time. that's the way make me knowned about gambling.
Yes it is true since childhood we know about gambling because gambling is every where. People always take risk just to have a big reward to themselves that is why there are a lot of people started to get addicted in gambling and ruined their lives. My first bet when i play card games with my friends, i enjoyed it a lot because i've won the most money.
You were lucky that day, I must say. Reason is, gambling or betting, both are just based on luck. There is no skill needed for these two harmful games and you are just based on the luck factor. If you are lucky someday, that day you might be winning most of the games. But being a greedy person, you just play more and lose everything because house has planned everything according to their profit.
Only luck is what can bring victory to a gambler. There is no other way to avoid defeat in this game. If it was about skills, people would have learnt it but we cannot learn luck. We can’t make it our slave. One more thing, it is not like that every other day would be someone’s lucky day so one must set some limits to his game. Else, tit won’t take much time before these lucky days convert into unlucky ones.
No doubt that luck plays a key role in the winning of gambler as gambling is totally a luck dependent thing with a very little role of self confidence and experience. However, after luck I think experience comes on gambling because it is due to this experience that one knows how to tackle all the situations and which can cause a loss in gambling if the person is inexperienced.
323  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why gambling is portrayed negatively almost everywhere? on: May 01, 2018, 09:52:32 AM
Gambling is all about luck. You don’t have any control on it and your strategies are just not working out in any case if you aren’t that much lucky someday. Believe me, no skill can have any impact on your results when you are gambling. So why to go for such option that is biggest risky for your money? Why to gamble when you already know you will be getting loss? Think over it.
You should not even be considering a strategy as long as it comes to gambling, but instead just depend on your luck and if it does not pull you through, you move on and find something else to do. However, some people have ended up painting the worst picture in their head as they tend to just look for ways to get rich quickly and then believe that gambling will set that path for them when they should be using their funds for something useful or even saving it.

Gambling will only and always make the pocket of the platform owners richer and the gamblers who have the wrong mindset poorer.

Gambling is the owner's game not the gamblers who have invested on any option. There are people go with the bitcoin and loose all the money over the gambling site. If there are high amount of investors through out the gambling site to play for luck and enjoyment purposes alone.

Since the people loosing the hard earned money on the various gambling site. All the investors showing the gambling website as a negative thing mate.

Gambling is a business just like any other business. To sustain a business, they need profits and it's not wrong. Gambling houses are not here to do charity! When people gamble, they mostly understand the risk associated with it. Majority of the gamblers understand the risk of loosing money if not all. They also understand that they can win big in their luck support them. That is called responsible gambling! One should not gamble with their last saved penny but if anyone with control to his emotions and finances, will never go bankrupt because of gambling.

It's just the outlook of people towards gambling needs to be changed. Yes, there are people who has gone bankrupt because of gambling. But we have seen instances of people going bankrupt after investing in stocks as well, that is also a form of gambling, packaged in sophistication! I strongly believe, gambling is nothing wrong if you play responsibly. The problem starts when someone goes out of control.
I also don’t criticize the owners of casinos for using or tricking their customers. It is how all business of the world run. It is not only gambling that is injurious for its player but the coca cola is no different from it. Alcohol, Nutella, McDonald, KFC, Microsoft all the businesses have sustained so far because these are good at playing with human minds rather they understand human nature well.
Yeah! We have no right to say the owners that they are tricking people and doing bad with their customers because they are here for business and business can never ever be done purely. Also, the people who go to casinos are old and mature enough that they can understand what is happening with them and what is good or not but they still go for gambling which means they don’t care about casino’s activities.

Please as a newbie how can I trade , please teach me everything
You don’t come to the forum and be looking for someone to teach you everything that has to do with trading. Why not find a teacher locally where you live or maybe find a website online where you can everything about trading, cause no one in this forum will have the time to teach you everything about trading, what they will tell you is to buy low and sell high🙄🙄 apart from that there is nothing else they will teach you here.
325  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does positive thinking affect your edge in gambling on: April 27, 2018, 10:27:16 AM
Some people think that strong feeling affect the outcome of your bet. But for me its all about luck., what do you think guys.

Too much positive thinking or confidence when gambling sometimes lead you to bad or wrong decision. Chasing your profit believing that the next bet will be a game changer is also one of the reason why a lot of gamblers lose a lot of money. Being too positive when gambling will not affect the result of how  you gamble.
No doubt that positivity can give you an edge in gambling because definitely you will forget about the bad affects of gambling when you will be playing any game in gambling and when such dangerous thoughts would stop coming in your mind during the game, you will be able to put more concentration on your game and also win it. That positivity you are talking about is illness not positivity.
326  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Keep these things in mind when you are into crypto world on: April 27, 2018, 09:43:19 AM
You’re right bro. Especially in ICOs one has to be very careful, so you don’t jump into ICOs and waste your precious time working on something that will all end up as failure. You should know their social media account and follow with them to more about them. Good exchangers will have a good support team that won’t keep you waiting for a whole week without giving you a reply or solving your problems.

Good support team will reply your messages within 24hrs time and have your problem settled. When it comes to being secured online, you shouldn’t open emails from an unknown sender and should also make use of difficult passwords and 2factor authentication.
327  Economy / Economics / Re: market refresh or just a pump ? on: April 26, 2018, 10:08:26 AM
Hi today market goes green
as you can see in 1 houre perfomance everything changed is it the comeback or just a pump ? what you think about it what is going on ?

It's just a pump for sure and I'm so happy of it right now.Thanks for this moment that the value of crypto market was started to grow more and all the ICO project will held successfully.
At this very moment, the market is getting better and that the market value of the coins like that of the bitcoin which are the backbone of the entire crypto market is getting better and that the ones who have invested their money into these coins are very much hopeful that they will be able to make some huge earning if they kept on holding their coins for longer time and this is the best thing to do as well.
328  Economy / Economics / Re: A wise strategy for your bitcoin on: April 26, 2018, 09:23:47 AM
We must certainly be able to determine a wise strategy or a specific purpose by constantly trying to adjust it to existing circumstances especially the price movements.
Well for me, besides still keep holding., of course, it would be nice I earn bitcoin or other income by not just investing only. Here, in this forum has been widely open for all of us to find many ways that can be profitable. In essence, we can really keep moving better without monotony.
If you have somehow managed to invest your money into the crypto currencies and that you have bought some bitcoins, then you need to make some wise strategy which can then help you out in making of some good amount of money as well so that you may not regret of investing your money into the crypto currencies. the best thing which can help you out is to go for holding of your bitcoins for longer time to get more profit.
It is already a very mart decision from a person who has invested in bitcoin. In my sincere opinion, nothing can be wiser than this at the present moment. As far as the strategy of making profit out of bitcoin goes, it is very simple and easy. A one can do that if he understands that bitcoin has a bright future and grows with time. After wards all he needs to do is hold for long.
329  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Massive loss 40% underwater on: April 25, 2018, 10:49:24 AM
Perhaps your behavior suggests that you have too little experience for such investments. You can try again with the smaller volume. But I'm not sure that bitcoin has already started to grow steadily. It could still happen again.
For such reason, it is often said that first go to the learning sites and learn completely about what you are going to do. We people are so hurry and always in haste. We really can’t wait and see the things coming to us gradually rather we have to jump and try to grasp everything in such short time. Such blunders comes in the market when an ignorant person start trading without basic knowledge.
330  Economy / Speculation / Re: Your opinion about the fall of bitcoin on: April 25, 2018, 10:14:44 AM
disappointing, Bitcoin's latest downfall, making the digital money down more than 40 percent from a record high around $ 20,000 that occurred in mid-December. This caused its market capitalization to fall to US $ 130 billion.

I think you don't have disappointing because as long as you can see your chance to buy bitcoin at a lower price and you can sell it once the price increase, you will make a good profit. this situations happen over and over and we can use this to make more money and I think many people can used this too. although the price is down but I am sure that in the end, the price will increase higher and perhaps it will reach more than $20,000.

People can't realize what is crypto market, majority enters with plan to make fast profit and they expect price to go up all the time. Downfall is nothing more then pumping the money out from crypto, its the time when newcomers buy at high prices while old timers are selling and making profit. Look at the market cap and watch how much money is pumped in and out from crypto by that you can understand where is market going, in which direction its heading. From January we have downfall cause more people take money out from then getting in bitcoin. What is important that market capitalization is higher this April then any April before, only when December come we will see will it price make new December record or bitcoin will need more time for passing last December high. Downfall is normal in any market so don't be surprised with this one, its not first one and for sure its not last one.

I hope that we don't have to wait until December to see the price increase like in December last year. many people still waiting for the price to increase again although this time is really difficult to increase more than $10k, I still believe that we can see the price increase higher.

like you said, the downfall is normal and we don't need to be disappointed or sad because the price will be up again and once the price is back to increase, we can make a lot of money. and the downfall will always happen over and over and it depends on us, what we want to do.
Fall of Bitcoin generally is answerable but if you are talking about the current market then the statement is not valid because the price today has increase up to 9.1k dollar and has started increasing from many days regularly that is a positive sign and the market is happy to talk about its increase.

On the other hand if you are talking generally then the fall of Bitcoin is more with the decrease in demands due to negativity and poor decisions of people.
331  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Shyness in gambling on: April 24, 2018, 10:07:36 AM
If you don't gamble because you are shy then you probably have some psychological problems in your life that are not necessarily related to gambling.
Most of the casinos giving you the feeling that you are at home, everybody accepts you and care about you, which in fact all they care about is take your money.
if Shyness blocks you from gambling then go ahead, whatever blocks you from gambling is acceptable.


Don't gamble because of shy is not a psychological problem, it's actually a normal thing. Acknowledge the fact, gambling is considered a bad thing by most people so embarrassing to gamble is common to some gamblers. People in the casino will accept you because they are gamblers too, you will not be embarrassed. Unlike the people who do not gamble and they talk about you, you must be ashamed unless you can ignore it.
I think there isn’t anything in gambling due to which one should become shy off. Saying this we should feel ashamed or shy after losing a game in gambling would be nothing else than a big blunder form one’s side because winning or losing is a part of game and this truly depends upon your efforts for winning in any game. If you will put all of your efforts in any game, there is no chance of your losing.
332  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: What are you buying now? on: April 24, 2018, 09:35:16 AM
I already bought that planning and yet these coins are growing good. Want to buy 2 more coins, but they are too expensive.
There are ways to make money in order to buy those expensive coins. If these coins are really expensive then I am sure one would be bitcoin. How about starting trade by the help of coins you are holding. Trading is a profitable profession. It would be a little difficult to gain increase in the capital due to lack of experience and knowledge, but with time everything becomes fine.
333  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to become a trader? on: April 23, 2018, 10:23:05 AM
If you're friend is already said the basic need in trading then explore it first.try to learn more strategy before you enter in trading.you always need the guidance of you're friend much more better than asking here.maybe a little bit help here in trading sites discussion.
Basically when a person goes in a new place, he is confused and conscious about everything. So for ease and getting normal, some technical papers and information are given to him so that he can easily adjust himself according to environment. Same is the condition here with all those who are newbies and came in trading, they must learn basic knowledge about bitcoins and then start trading.
334  Economy / Economics / Re: Will Bitcoin become a long-term trusted store of value? on: April 23, 2018, 09:50:01 AM
Whether one should invest in bitcoin or not depends on whether you think Bitcoin will become a long-term trusted store of value.
If it does become a long-term trusted store of value, BTC should trade around $2,000,000 a coin (depending on how many coins are lost and are actually in circulation). That is over 100x the price of where BTC is today.
If BTC does not become a long-term trusted store of value, its likely price will be close to zero (unless it becomes a "cool" collectible... which is a possibility).
So if you think BTC has a 10% chance of becoming a long-term trusted store of value, it is a good investment with a nice expected return. It is still very risky but professional investors should invest some small portion of their portfolio in this case.

It was already long enough if you are asking that bitcoin could be trusted for long term, the price of bitcoins is very cheap before back in 2013 and there's no one interested on investing in it till the price rise up today in the market.

Yeah, bitcoin already spend a long term and now bitcoin has come in this stage where we already have profit from it. If we have bought bitcoin since 2 or 3 years ago, now we come in this stage where we could make profit in a day and the next month bitcoin may be fall down, still we are in profit, But i do agree on it, that bitcoin has become long term trusted store of value. 

My opinion the only term investment is very power way for the profits in bitcoin so if you want to store more amount for investment you will definitely choose bitcoin long term investment .
By doing long term investment you can make better life ahead. Reason is, bitcoins are continuously growing in this world. No matter the price, as this is volatile coin so you can expect a low price as well, but still the fame and popularity is continuously increasing for bitcoins. So just don’t worry about the end in bitcoins, it would be best for you. Keep confidence in them and invest.
335  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Fall of crypto is near on: April 21, 2018, 01:57:01 PM
Bitcoin,  in my opinion,  is going to go up in price. What I reason is happening now is all about countries trying to benefit from a new shift in the financial system. For example, certain Russian hotel will introduce the use of Bitcon for the payment of hotel accommodation for the upcoming World Cup, secondly, Switzerland is renowned for being cryptocurrency friendly,  among other factors. What is happening now is a kind of consolidation of Bitcoin.  Bitcoin,  to my view,  has a bright future.
I think that today we can not say anything definitively, because the crypto currency market is still quite young and the situation in the world has a very strong influence on this market. I can only hope for the best moments and believe in a good and positive Exodus.
Near? is a bulshit. you're right that crypto is still very young and still in developmental stage. many people in the world have not used bitcoin or other crypto yet. or have not even heard about crypto ? impossible crypto to fall while many people continue to show interest in the world of crypto. I think the future of crypto is still very long dude. we have not reached the golden age ?
In my opinion 9 years is nothing for digital currency and many Altcoin are very new so it will take more time to develop. Many people have invested in bitcoin and are still buying bitcoin. Therefore I think that it will survive and the future is that of digital currency and bitcoin is the leading one and it will be the main steam in the future. All other currencies will disappear.
336  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and investment - different discussion on: April 21, 2018, 12:39:15 PM
This contradicting mentality is cater for different group of players, when gambler read that they will believe they will be the lucky ones which will always win and not lose however when they start to win they will also start to play a bigger amount and eventually lose back to the gambling site. When they start to go into the game unless they are able to control the human greed and revenge if not they will be addicted to the game. So the investors will start to be able to profit from their investment from here. Investing and gambling is quite similar in nature and you need to control human feeling in order to turn gambling into investing.
It is impossible that one will win all the times. He will lose if he gambles regularly. Al though a regular gambler has a lot of experience but luck will not favor him all the time. A regular gambler will never invest his money because he has the addiction to make money in seconds and in investment it is not possible. I don’t think that gambling can ever be turned into investment.
337  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you agree? on: April 20, 2018, 10:25:48 AM
According to CCN, Bitcoin prices will probably climb after April 17, when Tax Day in the United States is over. That’s what Fundstrat co-founder Tom Lee, a noted bitcoin bull, predicts.

If this is true then. Better buy some bitcoins now as long as is it low. Goodluck guys !

EDITED
BULLISH RUN IS COMING AS THEY PREDICTED!
It was early for now ! Hope it will consistently pump 😁
Well lets see what will happen yet I'm still hoping bitcoin price reach the 5 digit mark again so I can recover my loss but I still believe in this technology and I know bitcoin will be grow more that can very useful for the future.
Yeah, brother keep on holding you coin. The time is getting healthier now. Since January of this year, we are continuously seeing the market going down and down. It isn’t be getting up and that was seriously an alarming situation for all traders and investors. But like you have said, now, prices are getting higher and things are getting better. Hope so till the April end, we will get a big profit.
338  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do you encourage friends and family to invest in crypto? on: April 20, 2018, 09:55:22 AM
Your first point of contact in life is your family,  and having relate with your family members since cradle would give you an opportunity to talk and convince them in to cryptocurrency.  Your family members are likely to listen to you than strangers. 
Whenever you are going to convince someone on something, make sure this thing wouldn’t be wrong or unethical or immoral to the society values and personal values. Then if the results are good in this case, then sure you must talk to everyone for getting in and make some good days.

Same is the case with bitcoins and their trading, as this is profitable so don’t just waste time rather compel your family to invest more and earn bigger.
339  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why is Bitcoin's daily price fluctuations getting smaller and smaller? on: April 19, 2018, 10:45:58 AM
those are the ones who has invested only for shorter terms, they sell quickly after a slight upswing, mostly testers and curious traders who speculate often after a slight movements, they create this crazy trend. more small time holders sell often, many ICO are popping too, somehow affects the market price.
If you are more interested in making the money in daily basis, then I will suggest you go for investing in some of the altcoins as bitcoin is not meant for short term investment of money and that you will not get anything profitable if you will plan for short term investment with bitcoin. You need to keep holding bitcoin for longer period and that you will then be able to make more money.
340  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and investment - different discussion on: April 19, 2018, 10:02:35 AM
I can't understand one thing here.
Gambling websites usually promote their sites as best web to visit for gambling and winning. They tell you: Come here and win big but also at the same time they offer investment option and here they say again - invest and profit much. Website profits when users lose money so..
This also at the same time means: Players lose much here, so invest in our bankroll to get huge profit with us.
Can't understand of those casinos..
This is a strategy to attract more gamblers with ads that are attractive and profitable from every gambling, but it will be fatal for those who are too cool to gamble, wasting their time, surely people will tend to lose a lot when not having a strategy especially in patience, then there is no point in gambling, a great chance to earn a profit and a win and a great opportunity also to get big defeat, so that people are motivated to do it again and again.
Do you ever heard that in gambling sites anybody made money? I have never heard because most of these types are sites are scams and looting innocent people and suppose gambling site is authentic and registered then too nobody can make money because it is online and any online thing is not in control of users. That’s why gamblers lost their money.
It is not that online stuff cannot be controlled, rather it is the only thing that can be controlled. But that would be a total different discussion. People win, people lose and most of the times people lose in this game. It can be just thought as the nature of this game to hurt the player financially.

Luck is which no one can control and it hardly favors anyone. Even in land based casinos, not every other person becomes rich by gambling.
