341  Other / Politics & Society / Re: China hacks American companies, and they turn a blind eye on: April 16, 2019, 01:35:39 PM
Without a doubt a bombshell report about how the Chinese government is hacking American businesses and NOTHING IS HAPPENING. Thousands of American companies are turning a blind eye to these hacks due to the fact that they don't want to lose short term profits from China banning them from their country -- as the Chinese government controls EVERYTHING in China with a heavy hand. Here's a pretty good quote about this sort of behavior.

Alperovitch says White House officials told him that some of the same companies that were being victimized by China also wanted to continue doing business in China.

"They didn't want to take any action that would jeopardize that billions of dollars of trade we were doing at the time," he says.

China is the USA's biggest competitor in the world, and China isn't playing fairly in the least. They're prepared to (and have) hacked US businesses-- and not only the small family businesses, they're hacking companies like Google, Apple, etc in an attempt to build their own large companies. I hope to god that this is stopped, and that China faces severe penalty for their actions.

We as a country have to stop kicking the can to the next person on fixing a problem, we must stop this monster in their tracks.

I noticed that as well. China seems to be pushing it's weight around without anyone trying to do anything. It's like there's a silent tension going on between china and the us and one day things will blow up. Hopefully it doesn't escalate some more because the situations scares me.

Lol. 2 of the 3 sweeps you've listed here already had game 1 upsets. To be honest i didn't thik the lower half for both conferences would stand a chance against their counterparts. Brooklyn was a big surprise though i think this series can go down the wire. Ben simmons has been in the league for 2 seasons now and i still don't know why he hasn't developed an outside shot that would basically boost their chances against any team.

I would rather not teach anyone but if they insist, you inform them  about the implications and the addiction problem.
I would also advise against teaching gambling to under age people . I believe they can be easily  affected by gambling problems.

Its not good to influence people to gamble, and if they insist you must tell them everything about gambling. Teenager are easily to influence, they should be guided by the right gambler or person so they can be prevented. Let’s not encourage everyone to gamble, we know its risky.
We need to stop considering gambling as a sin,it can be a great entertainment when we know how to use it,so teaching them about how you need to gamble and why you need to gamble will help.

Come on. If the person isn't interested in gambling, you'd do him great service if you just keep it that way. I don't think there's any good reason why you would need to convince someone to gamble. I mean what's in it for you? Referrals? Not worth risking to ruin one's life over.
344  Other / Off-topic / Re: Is it possible for us to hack some gambling sites? on: April 15, 2019, 04:09:03 PM
Hacking is not good and once you caught you have consequences. I think better to use your skills in good way instead of hacking gambling site like creating your own gambling site . Gambling for sure are prone of hackers because they have a lots of bitcoins and altcoins.
It will be good if that skill is used in a good way. For example, if security of a website is not a strong, that hacker can inform them and then they can fixed it. Maybe they will get rewarded too, and better than do bad thing.

There are hackers as you described.

There are types of hackers on the internet, as far as I can remember when my friend told me about it, there is this white hat and blackhat, I think they are just some of the type of hackers. The usual suspects are the black hat, they are dangerous. If you are talking about a hacker in a good way, there is the white hat wherein they are the ones finding a hole in security and inform the organization. For me, hacking a gambling site is not impossible, securities are just close to being impenetrable the reason it is so hard to hack.
We know some gambling site maybe hard to get hacked, and there are no a lot of news that gambling site get hacked. Sometime only exchangers that get hacked. And that is what i mean, white hat. Maybe if black hat people get smart, they will use their skills in a good thing.

For sure there are hackers skilled enough to break through casino security. It's been done a lot of times before. But it'll be almost impissible for us, or me, to do it. It would require extreme skills to pull that off since i know casinos also put priority in security because their reputation is on the line there.

Yes definitely but it different for everyone because everyone will not in same lifestyle and same condition of economic situation so investment is based on your future with your savings will definitely been accepted for casinos to invest and it is my recommendation also for everyone to put your extra money only in Bitcoin Casino.

I follow your suggestion as I see that we have a chance to make extra money from the bitcoin casino. But we need to choose the recommended bitcoin casino so we could get that profit although it is not guaranteed to see the profit in every day. Let us think about the future with that investment because I think we can collect some profit from them if we don't break their rule.


You don't look at the daily status of your investments. These are passive profits that gain over time. And the gambling industry is one of those that never gets out of season. Money comes in non stop. Having a share in a bitcoin casino would likely be one of the most profitable investments in the crypto industry.

Another circus fight to generate money if ever this pushes through. Pretty sure the rules will be the same as the one with floyd so how do you expect these japanese fighters to even hold a candle to such seasoned boxers lol. Nasukawa earned his biggest paycheck however, and that can bait these mma fighters to a boxing match with one of the gretest pound for pound.

Season 8 will begin in approximately 45 minutes. For those who forgot, this is a recap of the storyboards of some of the main characters to remind you.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jMbao3xdiRY

An episode full of reunions it seems. A filler episode but great nonetheless. We've waited for this for 2 freakin years and the pilot was a good springboard to launch the next episode and probably the entire season. Not going to spoil it for anyone who hasn't watched yet even though it's all over social media now lol.
348  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Strategy to overcome losses .. on: April 15, 2019, 03:48:11 PM
There is no way that we can  prevent losses, i myself always lose however i am not losing that much because i am only setting small amount of bankroll that if i lose that bankroll i have the mindset that its not my day and just continue with a different day. Unlike before if i lose my bankroll i immediately deposit more to win back my losses but most of the time, instead winning back i end up losing all my crypto.
That in itself is a good strategy and avoids you making bigger losses. For someone who's fond of gambling, that's a sound advice. Not everyone will be happy to listen and apply that though. Losses aren't highly considered anymore for someone who's deeply addicted to gambling.
349  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does gambling sites needs to be a mobile friendly or not? on: April 15, 2019, 03:46:51 PM
Not all gamblers liked gamble with their PC sometimes they were comfortable to gamble with their smartphone instead of PC with their various reasons why they gamble use their smartphone so in this case i think gambling sites are required to mobille friendly because indirectly it will slightly increase new players to playing at their sites

Wow. From actual gambling tables, to pcs, to laptops and now to mobile devices. The evolution of gambling has really gone a long way now. From you going to a casino to gambling, to the casino coming with you anywhere you go. I think most gambling sites now has their own mobile option, some even have mobile apps to boast.  They don't need to have it but it would get more people to check their sites out.

To be successful through gambling users require luck as well the strategy developing knowledge. With relative to the game one need to be more informative. People with luck win with ease while users who have the good strategy developing skills gets increased winning chance.

Strategy does work only in few of the games but luck is most important part which will help you to take your wining form the gambling. It is important that you realize that you gamble for the fun and if you win it consider it as a bonus.


Yeah. People find it exciting when they risk losing money in something they don't have any control of. Testing fate to put it simply. Though having a good strategy and a lot of experience can bail you out sometimes to avoid losing situations, most of the time it's just all about luck.
351  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bet service on: April 15, 2019, 01:53:38 PM
Your betting conditions are too specific bro andi doubt you'll find any site that matches what you need. You probably could just start your own betting game with people you know. That'll be a lot easier lol. Or just scrap that and try the more conventional betting forums like sports.
352  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Season on: April 15, 2019, 01:49:15 PM
LA Clippers will be so frustrated with their series with GSW. Curry has step up his game specially his 3. And imagine if KD and Klay will also erupt at the same time will be very difficult for LA Clippers to at least win one game. If will be a good match if that is LA Lakers, but unfortunately, we won't see it happening this season though.

Every team that will face the GSW will get frustrated because they are so good.
Just remember what they did to the Cavaliers last NBA finals, if they can sweep Lebron, how much more this Clippers team.

GSW is not just good but they have the chemistry to blend in each play the do. What's killing the clippers are the three's made by the warriors in which they can answer or defend. Anyways, let's see on game two on how the clippers will adjust on the warriors plays.
How can they defend the GSW when they are not a defensive team, during the regular season they allow their opponent to score high and it's just their type of game. They cannot just change their system they will have to play better, outperform the champ on shooting and they will win.
The thing is the GSW is also a good defensive team, they are both good in offense and defense that's why they win championships.

So you mean that the clippers are not playing defensively that's why they lost to gsw? I thought that GSW has the edge since they are playing more intense in defense and more on offense.

Simply put, gsw is the better team in pretty much every aspect. I don't think the clippers expected to move on to the second round after the seedings were released. They may just be consisering themselves lucky they made the playoffs. Still a better finish though considering their lineup compared to the lakers lol. I had to get that out 😁
353  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Play poker to train trading on: April 15, 2019, 01:39:41 PM
Trading needs lots of patience and trust and their experience also play an important role in this trading field so I think Pokar is different from trading and it will teach something as to not invest much more that is the learning will come with the gambling field

Experience, self control, getting your emotions out of the way and patience. These qualities are what determines your result both in poker and in trading. So yes, i believe poker is a good way to make yourself comfortable with situations you'll find in trading and to develop traits needed to be a better trader.
354  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Capital on: April 15, 2019, 01:36:25 PM
It's often category b for me since the money i get outside the online world usually are spent outside the online world. Previously when i was still into gambling, it's the earnings in campaigns and early trades that i use to play dice on some exchange sites. Good thing i got my head bumped and was able to restrain myself before things got worse lol.
355  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling.. way to loss on: April 15, 2019, 01:33:20 PM
I believe that they are many people that are making money through gambling and we are not all losing in it.  I have had from someone here that he makes about 50bitcoin from gambling in 2018 and I also have seeing many people complaining on how much they have lose in gambling.

That will be too many people complaining about their loss than the people who can win Grin

I have many friends who can win in doge because I think he is a specialist in the dice dogecoin gambling site in FJ. He already wins so many dogecoin amounts from that place, but he doesn't tell us how he can win. Besides of that friends, I have the other friends who cannot win a single dogecoin or bitcoin in that site. Maybe he is not as lucky as my other friends. Gamblin is a way to profit and at the same time, the way to a loss.
Yes.It's just between the two,making profits or losing your money.But for me,gambling has higher chances of losing than winning in the first place so it would be very profitable if you only do it for pure fun and enjoyment.There may be some people who are too lucky enough to make such big wins but still majority of gamblers still end up losing at the end of the day.

Yes, so far I use gambling for pure fun and enjoy the game, nothing more. I know the consequences of losing, but I accept that because when I gamble, I never use too big money, so I don't need to be very sad if I lose that coin. Besides that, I don't gamble in every day and only gamble when I really want to play the games. Gambling will be a way to lose money when we cannot think that we don't have a big chance to win.

But most of the people will choose gamble for making money but i never think it will not be a money making method because there are very fewer chances to make money through gambling, most of us should consider gambling as for fun it will help you to control the emotions.

  Gambler's should never take gamble seriously, because it may lead us to feel anxiety in a way to become addiction. In this field we have to take it as a good vibes to release the stress, not by stressing itself. Because gambling has a lack of assurances to create money and if you are aggressive to earn accumulately, a huge possibilities of losing money will take its way and it is hard to deal it off.
Easy to say but if you are in the situation, you will realize it's really hard to do what you've said. As if you'll feel good vibes if you are having a lossing streak. Of course you'll get stressed wether you like it or not, unless you are winning. Eversince I only enjoy the game if I won.

Yeah i agree. It's never easy to get yourself together once you get too invested in gambling. It's a lose lose situation in the long run with the possibility of ruining not just the gambler's life, but their families as well. Not being too negative about it, but it's happening in real life and people need to accept that this is a real problem.
356  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How will you teach bitcoin if someone does want to know coming from you? on: April 15, 2019, 01:22:00 PM
I will prefer to answer question after the interested individuals had read all my recommended write up. If he read all I gave, it shows his high interest, high understanding of tech information and he must have gotten enough information to go through. Other information can be provided as a forum member if am not available.

I agree bro. You can't just spout out bitcoin and blockchain terminology to the uninitiated since it will just come out as jargons.  Better to have them familiarize themselves first through those writeups, articles and videos. And then it'll be easier for the both of you to discuss what they want to learn.
357  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Dominance and Bitcoin Meme on: April 15, 2019, 11:36:06 AM
We see that the downward trend in the bitcoin capitalization level continues. Therefore, interesting events await us ahead. It is possible that this may result in Bitcoin losing its price dominance over other types of cryptocurrencies. This is also indicated by the fact that even now many altcoins surpass bitcoin in many of their functional indicators. What will happen after that - a cryptocurrency market free from price domination or something else, it seems, we will soon see.

I doubt that. It may lose much of it's dominance but btc will still be the dominant coin in the crypto market. I think it's just accetable that alts grew in capitalization since crypto itself gained and is gaining popularity in general. That means the focus isn't too much on bitcoin now since people are looking at the other uses of crypto.
358  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Number of Blockchain wallet users are now above 35 million on: April 15, 2019, 11:32:14 AM
Still a painfully low amount of wallets.  Lots of people have many wallets and even less have a significant amount of bitcoin.  This really shows how far off we are for full adoption but this just means the price has a lot of room to grow.

You also have to consider the rate of the growth the number of wallets took from  a few years back. In crypto's early stages, it's not bad at all. We don't have any mass adoptions happening just yet as well so this figure is something to be hopeful about instead of something tonbe disappointed in.
359  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Possible scenario when all Bitcoin is completely mined. on: April 15, 2019, 10:14:54 AM
In order for Bitcoin transaction fees to become lucrative enough to encourage mining, Bitcoin’s value is going to have to rise substantially. Luckily, certain traits are built right in to Bitcoin to ensure just that.

People were mining when Bitcoins were worth $1. A lucrative block reward is not necessary.

Times change bro. I don't think there would be anyone who's willing to mine btc at sub 100 usd. If that's the case then miners would most likely shift to mining eth or other alts that definitely would be more profitable than mining bitcoin. Profit expectations were raised way up after 2017.

Almost 4 years here! 😁 and i'm glad to say that most of my basic knowledge in trading and crypto in general, i've learned here.  I've been in around 5 or 6 camapigns during that time and i would've had around 2 to 3 full bitcoins by now had i not gotten myself amused by crypto gambling early on lol 😆
