3241  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is Buy and Hold Really the Best Strategy in Crypto? on: September 04, 2020, 04:54:31 PM
There are veterans of trading and they will tell you that the amount of profit you can make from regular day trading is not even remotely close to what you can make from just buying and holding. Don't get me wrong the fact that buying and holding is profitable is true, people could make money that way and I would say it is quite the investment if you really want to do it, and nobody could argue that people wouldn't be able to make a profit.

However just because one thing is profitable doesn't mean that other one is not making profit, sure a newbie doing day trading will end up losing and someone who insists on not learning and just doing it how they want to will end up losing as well, but someone who really knows what they are doing will make ten times more than the person who buys and holds.
The power of trading comes from compound interest, even if you were only able to earn roughly 10% per month if you can do this regularly then at the end of a few years you will multiply your coins many times over and that is where trading shows its power over holding your coins.

During that time frame a person that just holds his coins could earn fiat but the number of coins that he's holding will remain flat and will not increase but with trading you have the option of the number of coins that you are holding to grow significantly during that same amount of time which will obviously multiply your profits in fiat as well but as we know trading is very hard and only a few can earn money with the activity which makes holding such a good option for the rest of the investors in this market.
Every strategy will depend on the person, There are people who aren't good at trading so the most efficient choice is just to hold their tokens and wait for the token value to rise. On the other hand, If a certain person has the skills that can accumulate profit in trading the person would certainly do trading for him to earn much more profit. Trading can give you more profit because you are working for it, Doing some analyzation while holding is just letting your token sit on your wallet and you are just checking the asset price regularly. If we are talking about the time I think the person who daily trades will get profit more than the holder because the profit of it is just pilling up and using it to deliver more profit in the trader's portfolio.

Both trading and holding are profitable if you do it right it's just trading is where you can earn more but put a lot of work on it and holding is earning less but gaining profit slow and small.
3242  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: COCK FIGHTING: COVID-19 health protocols violators, caught on: September 03, 2020, 08:52:43 PM
even if they win but their Health is at risk,what if 10 of them become infected and shared with their family?is it in the governments concern and problem how to make them better?

Well, that is the worst thing to happen, you the most annoying part in that situation? Those people would be blaming the government about that, people would be scared of them so they would find a way to blame it all on the government, that is what they do. Then the government will be the one making an adjustment to those, that is the sad part. Hope they realize this before going on those "tupadas".

The problem is that you can't force people to stay inside forever. It has been almost 6 months since the lockdown came in to effect here (in India) and now people just want to go out and relax themselves even if that means that there is a higher chance of putting them at risk. For how long you want them to stay inside and refrain from entertainment? The pharma companies are saying that a vaccine may not be available for another 12 months.

I am not saying that they can't entertain themselves, but can they just follow the safety protocols? Can they just follow the law of not doing these cockfighting which is still banned? They can do anything to entertain themselves as long as they are following the protocols, They could relax, bond with their family, does it really need to be cockfighting?
We really can't control people in doing stuff like this, Even if it can be dangerous to their health or whether it is an illegal act in their country. We know this cockfighting wouldn't be happening if there aren't organizers that make this event. I think they are the ones who should be blamed for. I think those cockfighting gamblers are having itchy hands in betting on their cocks to fight so they can't wait. It's just there are some people who don't take this pandemic seriously and don't know the harm it can bring to them and their surroundings if they are infected. They aren't scared at all they just want to satisfy their own needs.

Damn, and im here freaking out when losing 20$  Cheesy
When it is my first time doing gambling, I'm disappointed of myself when I lose at around $10 or less and saying to myself that "If I only just bought food with that money or at least saved it or invested in something" and there are times where I will just sleep out of my disappointment.

It will depend on the lifestyle of the gambler. If you haven't that much money then you will really freak out when you lose a few buck like you and me but if you will ask those rich gamblers, $20 is just nothing to them and they are still ok if they lose it. Its just experience and discipline. If you want to gamble then you must learn not to feel anything when you lost your money because at the end of the day, gamblers have a higher chance to lose all of their money in gambling.
It also came that to me, Realizing the thing I should have bought with the small money I lose in gambling, It was a small bet with my sister almost 5$ value in our fiat, I was really disappointed with that bet that I told myself not to gamble anymore or make bets anymore but here I am playing gambling on different crypto casinos and not regretting my loses. I do agree that it depends on the lifestyle, The time that I loss 5$ bet is when I was a young age that I can't afford to buy myself my wants cause I'm still studying that time, But now I do have income, I really don't feel any guilt when I lose some pennies.

Putting some limitation on your gambling money can help you not regret the gambling session you did. Gamble what you can regain with your job  Grin

Lossing too much money in gambling can cause damage to your mental health  Grin

is it ads banners? or just a background image?
because it has links and clickable. is it supposed to be displayed like that?
well, my screen resolution is 1600x900, and I feel distracted with that position.
maybe you can consider to make it as a floating banner.


I feel distracted by the advertisement of roobet, It feels like this site is made for roobet. I agree that the floating ad banner is more better than making it the whole background.

I hope that your designer isn't lazy for just replacing the whole background, For an advertisement like this I understand roobet pay more than others but please consider the design of the site.

Btw it's nice that you have a mobile application hoping that it can get through ios.

Price rise: adoption!
Price drop: manipulation!

Ah, classic. If you're a long term holder, why are you so affected by a price drop? It's not like price drops are anything new with bitcoin in the first place. If anything, price drops like this are great opportunities to stack up some more.
I genuinely laugh at this haha, I don't know why there are still people who are complaining when bitcoin drops it's the price and blaming that it is manipulation. As a long time holder, I really don't even care enough what price would be.

We can't expect that bitcoin will just go straight that price border, I think it's normal to have the price drop on that price but I agree that it is a pretty big price drop.

3246  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Which type of trading you think is good? on: September 03, 2020, 06:21:11 PM
The one you know obviously, the more you know the more you can do, if you think there is a set configure that could help you with making money you are very wrong, I am sure that people actually think like that, there is some sort of quick way of making money, do this type of trading or do this type and you will definitely make money! Well that doesn't exist, you can't make money that way, you are going to end up losing money.

This is why I agree that people should actually focus on learning, learn whatever you want and learn how to do it however you want and that is why I want to make sure that you know what you are doing, if you know what you are doing you are going to profit from it, that is why just study your things and whatever it is as long as you do it well you will profit.
Sad reality but this is what happening on most people who do tend to make up trades for the first time on where they do hurry to learn up things and even jump to the battlefield without any sufficient
knowledge or even knowing the basics which would really result into a 100% loss and they do realize that they had done the wrong stuff.Trading cant really be learn overnight and this would really be
a pile of trial and error and we know that there are several ways on being a trader and you cant just have to learn it all but rather focus into a path or way on which you are comfortable into neither
you would be a long term or a short-term kind of trader and you do really need to find out on which one works the most on your part.
That is one of the common mistakes of new traders that just want to earn a profit, Imagine there are experienced traders that are losing even they have sufficient knowledge, What more if you only have a limited of it. Trial and error are effective but you shouldn't risk something if you are doing that especially if it involves money, There are a platform where newbies can practice trading through trial and error that can't cost them a single penny.

The crypto market now is unpredictable, Before I am basing my trading decisions depending on the new event of a certain token but now It's really hard to conclude things to make the right move on trading.
3247  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What I think will be the top cryptocurrencies in 2021 on: September 03, 2020, 05:19:08 PM
Bitcoin and Ethereum are my key players.
But I am still hunting some altcoins these days, I am trying to avoid DeFi coins these days coz I think I am already late for the party, lol.
As long as my bag is majority on Bitcoin and Ethereum, i'll be more safe, kinda scary to pick some low market cap altcoins, I am afraid on Bitcoin to dominate the market again.

I believe a lot of us here are rooting for btc and eth. They are like the only cryptocurrencies you can trust of when all others fail. But if you are a crypto user who is closely following updates and developments of others alts, you will know which one is worth investing for. Not gonna believe all the FUD by other people here.
Yes. Bitcoin and ethereum are my only top choices and the rest of those altcoins are not really seem profitable for me. And besides, it's more risky if you fill your bag with pump and dump altcoins and only to find out they only end up as dead coins in the long run. Better invest with bitcoin and ethereum since they made the best hit in the crypto market.
This will more likely the answer of most of us, there are many of us who are scared to hodl newly born alts. DeFi is now on-trend but there's a large possibility that DeFi tokens can't bring their fire in 2021, Knowing their trend might go down.

I do think that the tokens on top 20 of rankings on coinmarketcap will hold their position in 2021, The number one spot on cmc which is bitcoin won't change absolutely If you're going to settle into tokens, of course, choose the best.
3248  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Crypto.com investment app is it a good deal? on: September 02, 2020, 08:16:29 AM
For now, I don't really suggest it because anything can happen with your investment at any time. Your friends are telling it's a legitimate investment "For now" but we don't know what might happen in the future, there could be a possibility that the coins your hodling will dump that it makes hard for you to sell. This has a risk knowing that the payout is a bit high and I don't know if the investment could sustain that high payout in the long run. 

The general rule of thumb is, if something is too good to be good, avoid it.
Just remember this  Wink

I will be glad if you add blackjack fun in your directory, Blackjack fun is a blackjack focused game so I think there will be a new blackjack site identification in your directory.

3250  Economy / Gambling / Re: Seuntjies DiceBot -Multi-Site, multi-strategy betting bot for dice. With Charts! on: September 02, 2020, 05:16:47 AM
As long as the response from the forum members will be positive like they actually earn even a small profit then I will try to download your application and will likely to start from a small amount. In my side, I can say that it is a little bit risky as I am not that familiar on how it operates but I think I can handle it as long as your application is safe.
You realise that the dicebot is NOT a "guaranteed to make you win" type system right? It is just a tool, like a web browser... that lets you automate certain aspects of your betting and allows you to create or run custom scripts so you can try various "systems" or strategies...

It is NOT guaranteed to win, it does NOT increase your chances of winning etc... the odds are exactly the same as if you used the site manually through a web browser.

Anyone that tells you otherwise, is a fool... and if they're trying to sell you a "winning" script, they're a scammer.
I think he is aware of the risk of this dice bot, It's a common-sense that a bot can't lead you in a sure victory just by using it, It also requires knowledge and strategy that's why it is called a tool. It's meant to be used for more proficiency.

Bots have the same purpose that is to help the gambler to help them with their rolls and bot makers are doing something to help the user like this bot, It has charts in it for the user to easily see the data of his session also built-in strategy is also nice.
3251  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I have shared about bitcoin on my class on: August 30, 2020, 06:44:45 PM
Asking that question shows that your teacher really wants to know what bitcoin is all about. He/she might have heard it in the past. So many people do not have an understanding of what it is but you jump into the conclusion that it is a scam or an investment scheme. I believe with time the bitcoin will be more discussed in an institution and public places and will change the orientation of the people especially those that have a biased mind towards the crypto and blockchain technology

It happened to me a lot since I have a knowledge about bitcoin sometimes I put bitcoin or cryptocurrency in the topic. And then most of the time my teacher ask me what is bitcoin etc. and then I end up explaining the bitcoin to the whole class. I think a lot of people or even professionals doesn't really have knowledge about bitcoin, bitcoin is not yet ready as an online currency and it is still in the progress of adaptation. A lot of people don't trust bitcoin-like my professor because it is just digital and doesn't have a physical form and he says that you are just investing in something that is imaginary meaning anytime you could lose it. I think he has a point but in my experience on the market supply and demand works.
I sounded like you before, Explaining the concept and bitcoin itself in the whole class, Honestly, it is a very satisfying experience to be sharing my knowledge to others and having many people ask more about bitcoin to me. The only thing that conflicted is the knowledge of my teacher, He really fights me that bitcoin is a scam due to recent news of bitcoin scam that time but I'm relieved that I changed the entire knowledge of my classmates on bitcoin. I don't ask them to believe but I intend to make bitcoin positive for them because of the negative impact on scams on bitcoin at that time. Sharing knowledge about bitcoin and blockchain is awesome!
3252  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Barriers preventing you from using bitcoin today/advantages of using bitcoin? on: August 30, 2020, 04:50:11 PM
The most common barrier for me and for others I think is the lack of local merchant that is accepting bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies as a payment for their product and services though there are some online services that make it easier for other people to accept or to spend the bitcoin they have, But thinking ahead, Bitcoin will surely be adopted by many merchants as bitcoin grow, It's just the same as Paypal before who is not accepted by the most merchant but it came to the time that it is adapted by them due to convenience and trend.

There are many advantages that I see from cryptocurrency, Volatility is one of them since I am trading crypto and as a trader that starts on stocks before, I make more profit in the volatility of crypto hodlings than my stock assets.

As a crypto believer, I believe that bitcoin will eliminate the problems that are existing today. It's just no one can stop me from using crypto. I feel comfortable here, Why would I leave?
3253  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin and Mobile Gaming on: August 30, 2020, 10:22:23 AM


Which is right. Those gamer are aware of using other digital currency and adding bitcoin is not hard to them. It's also adds great advertisement for those who don't know bitcoin yet, seeing that it's part of their options will give them time to search about bitcoin and
how things works using this cryptocurrency.


This cannot be implemented everywhere. The game developers will never integrate bitcoins as mode of payment in the games where the bitcoin are not legal. If they do, they might have to face legal complications. Other than this, many people will prefer it and use crypto currencies in games too.
This can be a possibility too, No developer wants to endanger their game because of the payment method and given the fact that not everyone knows how to use crypto as payment, Developers would probably go for crowds favorite payment method and the most common.

There are some games I know that are accepting bitcoin thru 3rd party services, It has some fees in it that's why I think it is one of the reasons why it is avoided, I didn't even try to use it, to be honest. But if the main plan is spreading awareness it could be effective since people are cautious living things and there is a high chance they will search it.
3254  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: RenVM, supposedly decentralised but control 9000 BTC worth of funds on: August 29, 2020, 09:56:02 PM
When you are responsible for people's money, then some things must give way, some of these DEFI projects realise they can't be 100% decentralised for now until the space truly mature and there is a better security. It is easy to be pointing fingers when you are outside the development team because you do not understand this, any vulnerabilities in the chain could resulted loss for the team
But as an investor imagine what they can feel about the bunch of money they invested into a promising plan. A bunch of people hodling your money and promise not to mess up with it. I understand that they need to give way in the process but I think it is wrong that they didn't include it in their plan given that they are a DeFi project. People are expecting it to be decentralized all the way.

Does anyone have more information about them, are they legit and are they coming on bitcointalk forum?

They would be silly to skip the  best crypto forum in the world  Cool
Just heard them just this day, it's early to say that they are legit but something with 4k follower on Twitter I think they do but as I said it's still early to call them that. There are flourishing crypto casinos out there I guess that haven't got an introduction here in the forum it doesn't mean they don't introduced their casino here means they can't flourished.

Well, I partly agree with you since they'll get good amount of traffic if they get to advertise here rather than not.
Having them in this forum and take part some promotion here can be more effective since they are giving out worth $500,000 for their introductory promotion. Promoting in the forum will be no problem for them. We know that traffic is good here and it will be wise of them if they get by in this forum.

They are not functional for now but they seem pretty serious about it.

This is obviously a manipulation, Common pump and dump scheme which most likely did by people who will benefit in this. Buying these coins will put you in trouble because this scheme only stays for a short period and there's a high chance that you won't get profit but will put you on loss. By seeing its volume, It can be proof that these coins can easily be manipulated. It's just abnormal in every way.

I really don't recommend to buy these coins because this can be considered as shit coins.
3257  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Don't invest for quick gains only on: August 28, 2020, 11:35:18 PM
A reason why many had come into crypto and invest it is that they always think about easy money, quick market gains, and be an instant millionaire which is definitely wrong and only just an imagination. Nah, they can find it in real life when they invest cryptos.

It actually we can make money from here and become profitable but we also have to realize and not being blind enough to see the true market condition and don't live into hallucinations. If we have a good choice of projects, it all becomes possible but if we're not, we have to know also the consequences awaited us.
I can very relate to this one, There is time that my friend see me that I earn such amount of money in cryptocurrency and this instantly triggered them to ask me and teach them how to use and invest on it and they are thinking that I am earning easy money in crypto which is not true. Ups and downs can't be avoided if you are dealing with crypto and seeing only its ups will give a false impression about crypto that it's a money machine.

Today DeFi projects are being hyped up and I'm sure many who are unaware of crypto will think this as a money machine, I'm just hoping that they won't be scammed by fake scam projects because of being ignorant.

Yah, Using big names is one part of the marketing and the concept of the project, They will basically use big school names such as Harvard University which has a very reputated name and a dream school of many students.

3260  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Legal Matter on: August 27, 2020, 04:30:27 PM
I am sure that this would have benefits and advantages as well. Legalizing online casinos, does not necessarily mean that crypto casino are included. Unless, the country is open to also accept cryptocurrencies. But, by doing that it can compromise our anonymity and would also lead to taxes being charge.

Having a  certain country that legalized online gambling might not directly affect cryptocurrency casino but it can be a stepping stone for a crypto casino that could possibly start-up in that country.  Of course, the drawbacks of setting up a crypto casino on a newly legalized country can't be avoided because the regulations will be pretty in favor of the country and the government itself.
