361  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: It's stupidity to have thousands in Bitcoin using a software wallet on: February 22, 2024, 03:13:34 PM
It's easier to find the definition of Bitcoin online at the time but it's a bit complex to know out of the box that there is something called cold wallet or custodial wallet, it was confusing to me, so I just visit google for answer and yes Legder and Trezor are always the first, instead I went on google play store for bitcoin wallet, I mean, why spend dollars on a hardware wallet when a software wallet can do the same?

You are talking non sense.

Unless you are very experienced in cyber security,  there is no way you could have the same level of security using a software wallet and a hardware wallet.

A hardware wallet gemerates your seed in an airgapped environment , 99.9999% secure. You can even plug your device in an infect computer and your coins will be safe. Unless if you do some mistake like phising etc...

OP is talking in the past tense so of course they believe that hardware wallets are more secure than software wallets now Smiley

Anyway, sorry for your loss OP, but this is how you learn. Never ever store your bitcoins on a custodial platform. Custodial = does not give you a seed phrase.

It is just not worth it, I mean there are so many people lined up who are waiting to steal your money, that you can't get back since it is decentralized.
I quite don't get the idea of OP using past tense words in his sentence being related to his point of view that hardware wallets are more secured. My analogy with this is , online platforms are convenient to access and same thing goes with hackers. Everything in online especially wallets or accounts are prone to be hacked, if bad people will be given a chance. Including devices as threat, malwares and phising sites are troubles you wouldn't wish to encounter. What's best is to maximize the security of wallets as much as possible. At least hardware wallets will be only prone of owner's negligence which could be easy to change for the better. If you value the amount then there's no need to save a few amount; better to save what you are storing. The more you want to save a few money, the more you are exposing yourself with loss, as evident with mentioned instances.
362  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ethereum price approaches $3k on: February 22, 2024, 02:39:40 PM
Ethereum did break the $3k mark earlier but now it seems like profit booking is happening. What looks interesting to me is suddenly BNB price has spiked by 7%. I don't have any news that indicates the reason. It looks to me as if whales are manipulating it's price for now.

There are two reasons why Ethereum breached the $3 price point. Of course one reason is the spot ETF that might get approved soon. The next one is Dencun upgrade which is going to happen on March 13th.
Good insight but more likely it is whale manipulation due to those mentioned events. There's no significant event at this moment, only anticipated ones, which helped me come up with such conclusion. But bottomline, no one has the assurance of whatever reason behind the increase other than the increase itself being unexpected that it even had a higher price increase than with bitcoin's.

Given these upcoming events, there is a huge tendency for ETH to reach its ATH, and other tokens might as well have the same hype. Domino effect is evident for a long time with market price increase and decline. However, investors should still be careful of a possible price correction given that prices are up for months already and consolidation might suddenly take place. Being optimistic of ETH's price movement is okay however never be too confident.
363  Economy / Economics / Re: How can it be possible coping with one source of income on: February 22, 2024, 01:27:54 PM
It would be better if you avoid comparing yourself to others. In my experience, doing so only leads to more stress as you dwell on how others have achieved their success. Instead, focus on yourself and consider taking a part-time job to increase your income. Everyone's situation is unique, and some people are fortunate enough to begin their careers with a decent income, while others are not. Use your current job as a stepping stone towards a better career with a higher income that can provide more for you.
I agree with avoiding comparison with how others are doing but in OP's case, he is seeking for a way to be able to pay his bills with only one source of income. First of all, he won't ask such thing if what he's earning is sufficient. There is only one way which is to make changes with his expenses to compensate his bills and to at least have any amount to save.  Ofcourse it would be better to seek for a side job or anything that will make his monthly earning, bigger. It would be the best solution; bigger salary means being able to pay bigger expenses. However, it is not as easy as it sounds 'coz it will depend on his circumstances. There are some instances that no matter an individual wants to add another job, his time just cannot fit another workload. Investments on the ither hand is also not simple to achieve. So I guess adjustment with expenses should be first done to make a margin and it is for later to think of how to increase his earnings.
364  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling for fun and not a way of making money on: February 22, 2024, 11:52:56 AM
The idea behind gambling is rooted in our desire for risk, reward , and entertainment. Some people engage in gambling not just for making money but also for the thrill of taking chances and social interactions. As gambling it’s not just limited to staking bets as we call it. Some gamble by playing poker, whot and Luda etc because it provides opportunity for socializing and competitions. While others are motivated to gamble for just the financial gain
People that wants to gamble for financial gain may lose and later blame themselves. These kind of people need to be wise and also use just small amount of money to gamble. That makes people that says gambling for fun and not ways of looking for money to be very correct. For social interaction, it will be common among land based gamblers. Most people today are not land based gamblers but online gamblers and looking for money gamblers will be more than those looking for social interaction. But irrespective of any, we should go the way of not wasting money on gambling.
Everyone who engages with gambling activities will really have a tendency to lose their money because of the risk present, and that's a normal thing in this industry. Regardless if you are after huge or small amount of money, as long as there's an expectancy of profit, you will be categorized under gamblers who are after money from this industry. People who claims to be gambling for fun just happened to afford the consequences which is loss. Meaning, they won't be in deep feelings of frustration and regrets no matter what the outcome is, unlike with people who are only after profit that gets too emotional especially after losing an aount of their bankroll. Idea is; the more you exect, the more it affects you. Also with interaction, it depends on the individual, 'coz you could not be sociable even with landbased casinos, same thing with how  gambler enjoys the experience.
365  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Recovering gambling addict stories on: February 22, 2024, 07:08:23 AM


Perhaps you have seen other videos as well and maybe share it here.
I saw the video before and there are other inspiring contents surfacing the web. Indeed, helpful however addiction is not something everyone would overcome because of inspiring videos, that is why there are professionals to help and to properly address the problem. It will also need the initiative of the gambler who is needing the help. Let us be real, it alll depends on oneself even the part of getting addicted into it. Not new to hear but we should be peventive with ourselves to avoid unwanted situations. I doubt that there's a gambler who never know it could be an addictive activity also with the risk involved. We are the ones putting ourselves in such situation and if you never wish to be one, start it with always reminding yourself of how gambling really works to all of us. And to those who are already addicted, desire to change and start the change. Have the initiative to seek professional help 'coz it would be the best solution. Assess how things are going as well in your gambling career to check if you'd be needing one. Losing is a part of gambling but not losing oneself.
366  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Don’t play gambling with drugs or in half sleep on: February 22, 2024, 06:24:47 AM
It'll all boil down to being unconscious or unaware of what is happening whil you are gambling. Also, it will never be right to do drugs, anyway. The importance of awareness is to avoid betting amounts outside your risk appetite. Bottomline? You'd more likely regret the outcome. This is only a simple way to display self-control and discipline. Presence of mind is also needed when you are gambling to at least enjoy the experience and to make valid decisions. If the money you engage with gambling matters on your end, then you better not take things lightly.

There are indeed instances wherein players were unconscious of their bets and ened up winning but the fact that the opposite is more often to happen, never add risk to an existing risk.
Your friend's condition is concerning. Especially when he is under the influence of drugs, it highly results to risk-taking behavior or impulsive decisions, and these kinds of decisions will result in unpredictable outcomes leading to wins and losses. It's much better to gamble with focus and calm mind. It's important to prioritze a healthy start of the day, make wise decisions, learn from past experiences, and most importantly to gamble responsibly.
I agree, most of the time if you are under the influence of any illegal substance, you are having feelings of a different "world". This will make you not be cautious of the consequences of your actions. You can think of the worse; betting all you have, borrowing money even if you know to yourself that you will struggle paying it, and more. These are unwanted scenarios not only in gambling but to all life settings. If those who are in their normal condition struggles to make a decision, what more to someone who is not even self-aware of things.
367  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Where did u put your Money ? on: February 21, 2024, 04:10:18 PM
I basically stick to idea buy low priced coins like 0.00001$ that have good potencial
so when coins get to 0.01$ its a very good profit of %


For my self i have 60% of assets on BTC
But i wonder on which coin you have more % invested ?


Investing in altcoins is more like gambling than investment irrespective of the fact that every investment comes with it's shares of gain and lost Bitcoin is on a better side compared with altcoins, now Why altcoins is for Short term profits maximization Bitcoin is better for long term, apparently we have different individuals level of risk tolerance, aims and objectives, understanding who you are and what you want is what will give you that peace of mind which is paramount. For me I have been allocating 10% of my income in Bitcoin monthly.
The same thing, if it is investment in general. Both Bitcoin and altcoin market prices are volatile so how come investing to one is gambling while the other is not? There will always be a risk of losing money in any kind of investment. And with this industry, it is a matter of decision making. You will only or completely lose once a decline with the market price happened and you choose to sell at that point. As long as you are holding and as long as there's a considerable amount of volume then hope should still be there with what coin you have invested in whether it is Bitcoin or altcoin. I get the point that major tokens are percieved to be more assuring when it comes to profit however, technically those are all the same. Especially during bullrun, majority of tokens' market price are affected and are following the tide.

You may refer to price charts to check for yourself and try to compare the price direction of a certain coin you are interested with. Not all altcoins are indeed a good choice but that's because of the project'e progress and popularity; you won't engage into one which is not even known by many right?
368  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Seeking Advice ‼️ on: February 21, 2024, 03:42:15 PM
Hey everyone! I've got $1000 to invest before the next bull market kicks in. Should I spread it across five different coins or go all in on just one? What are your top picks for either strategy?
Definitely it would always be better to diversify in order to not suffer that much from loss. In my case, I have filled my portfolio in preparation with the anticipated bullrun in relation with halving. Bitcoin and Ethereum would be of course be advised gigen that these two often lead the uptrend. The rest is up to you, point here is to spread your capital to avoid huge loss with one token, it will also increase your chances of earning profit in a way that even if market prices moves on the same direction, they run with different phases. You may also engage with launchpools and other crypto projects which are now creating a noise. Some would say memetokens and that would be fine however, personally I'm not into it. No matter what advice we give, it will always depend on your risk appetite. You may also wait for a price correction if you want to get a better position; prices won't continuously rise anyway. No need to rush and enter at your own risk.
369  Economy / Economics / Re: Isn't it all about money? on: February 21, 2024, 03:00:23 PM
What's the essence of all the hustle and bustle and learning and reading and keeping all the sleepless night? Isn't it all about money?

What if I don't want to go through all these process, don't care if I'm a graduate or not or if I'm good at speaking good English or not buth I'm just focused on how to make the money and end up making the money, won't the end justify the means?


For sure you will be using a skill to earn money. Education, language, drive, reading, and hardwork are all skillsets. Basically, the more skillset means more money, so how come you will not be needing those? Drive to earn money is not enough. Even if you are blessed with a talent, it won't be enough. Imagine if just wanting money will already give you money, why aren't we all rich by now? Why are there people categorized as poor? Let's be honest, especially nowadays wherein ny industry is conpetitive, yiu have to stand out from the croud if you want to get the spotlight. You could indeed work thru what is 'standard' when it comes on employment, however would it be enough?

This will all boil down on earning more than an average can do. If you are not willing to undergo the 'process' you are referring to, then settle with what will be there and what will be earned, which is more likely the "enoigh" and the "average". You are not doing those things such as hardwork and sleepless nights for nothing. You are doing those things 'coz you want to be better, and to earn better than others, if money making is being the concern.
370  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What game will you choose for one shot big bet? on: February 21, 2024, 02:13:13 PM
One thing is for sure; I won't bet with casino games if it is a one time big time bet 'coz I don't trust my luck. Kidding aside, it shouldn't be a game which is not only determine by luck but also with some sort of strategy to at least increase the chance of winning, and for me it is with sportsbetting.
As far as I understand any game chosen for betting involves risk we have to bet considering the risks. There is very little guarantee that you will win the bet. Luck is required here I love playing slots there are huge winning chances but be careful before shorting. If you double your bet after every unsuccessful bet you can end up with big losses if you have to make many unsuccessful bets in a short period of time.
Well it is true, however maybe OP is just being hypothetical with the question. Ofcourse it won't be advisable to bet an amount you will be so worried of, and that could be everything you have. No excuse will push you to do so if you want to be happy with your gambling journey. Losing will be the worst outcome in this case.

As I'm saying, in sports betting, you could increase your chances of winning. My choices are either boxing or basketball. As we all know, player or team statistics matter in sports betting. From those data, you could draw conclusion on which one should you bet with a huge amount. And for sure feelings would be different from putting that amount in slot machines, dice games, and roulettes. At least, there will be hope of winning.
371  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Couple won the jackpot but split soon after! on: February 21, 2024, 01:40:23 PM
Depends really in the case, we might not know the whole story.
However, if perhaps only one of them insidted the bet, and that same person is the one to do the 'whole' thing, then definitely he earned that jackpot and it depends on him whether to share it with his partner. And if the only thing that associates the 'split' is them being a couple then that won't be fair especially if they aren't married yet.

Another side is both of them engaging the bet, sharing the mount they bet, and being "whole" to make that bet, then they should be splitting the amount.

Last angle is with whom the bet is named after, tit will be the only one acknowledged by the laws and regulations.

I hope they won't be in conflict because of this. Money is indeed important but relationship should matter more 'coz even without the jackpot they were together already. Any amount could be earned and that is why we should not let greed take over us.
372  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Wednesday had been my bad day to gamble. on: February 21, 2024, 12:51:26 PM


Anyway, some will say it is just a superstitious belief but what if it keeps on happening?
How about you? Do you have that one day when you feel like you are not even winning whatever you do or whatever game you play?
The only thing that keeps it happening is your fate and fortune, nothing more and nothing less. This is a normal day in my gambling 'career', and I just get used to it and have accepted bad days as part of our journey given that no one has control of their luck. We gamble 'coz we risk, and that should be an enoigh explanation of why losing will be always happening whether it is for the whole day or week.

I do understand those who'd claim it is just a superstitious belief. As I said, we have no control of the outcome or we cannot be certain of winning. This is the same as with routines some of us tend to practice to 'increase' their chances of winning. Sometimes it does work, and sometimes it doesn't. It is a valid gambling thing no doubt as long as you don't cheat. Do as much and believe as much as you do because it adds flavor in our gambling routines. On my end, I don't have any; if I'm losing then I'd be. I will always choose to just accept things ad try again the other day. I will also take a break if I have to.
373  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you feel excited while gambling on: February 21, 2024, 12:14:30 PM
Excited, thrilled, and tensed. Probably normal feelings a gambler might get into since we are all aware thaat chances doesn't mean assurance. There will aways be a risk of losing but behind that unwanted outcome, is winning. As I sid it before, this somehow has something to do with the adrenaline caused by risk. And even if we often lose, most of us views gambling as an entertaining activity especially if you are able to manage the bankroll and risk involved with it. What's not normal to feel is to be frustrated after losing. Feeling itself is valid however, it only means that you cannot afford losing the amount, which makes it a bad decision to bet in such way. If you are being rational with the aount you bet, then you would avoid frustration and greed. The reason why these feelings should be avoided is to also prevent addiction to take place.
As most people say and almost everyone feels this condition, and in my opinion because we know our condition and if the feeling is disturbing and will cause fatigue, it is better not to bet and stopping for a while is the best choice.
Gambling will always involve psychology and emotions which we must immediately be aware of and control, if not controlled the answer is as I said above. Stop and rest for a moment to neutralize your situation, and if everything returns to normal and overall good you can play again.
Excitement is always a positive thing, it only means that you are hoping of something. What's not, which might caused fatigue, is stress and frustration as what I am saying. And yes, control with our emotions should as well be prioritized along with our bets. Once we lt emotions out to play for us, we cannot expect anything less but the worst, which is deep loss and debt or even loss of property in some instances.
374  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you won a bet with your last cash? on: February 20, 2024, 07:11:47 PM
For slots players, I think this often happens, when the balance is almost drained, they get a surprise free spins which give big wins. I myself have experience by placing a bet of around $0.5 (IDR7000), because this is the last balance I have. But, from that last 1 spins, I got free spins, and it gave me a win of $100 [ss]. It's not much for some people maybe, but with a deposit of $10 getting a win at the last of the balance is something unexpected.  Cheesy

Simply winning with your last bet is already amazing. Last bet means you are hopeless (most of the time I guess), given that you've lost all of your funds for that dy or certain period of time. However, if you will be haing a small win with your last bet, perhaps an amount lower that what you've lost on earlier of your gambling session then there's a high tendency that you will bet again. Only a few people will accept and let go of other loss on that instance and that is simply because it won't be as satisfying as winning the jackpot with your last bet. It will just give you an impression that you could  be winning again with the following bet. Next thing you'd see is yourself regretting not securing that small win over chasing profit. Regrets do come last, right?

Many people for sure experienced this and such thing doesn't happen on a daily basis. But that's just gambling in the first place; you'd completely lost once you stop. This idea is what creates a cycle in gambling activities of many players.
375  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is it too advanced to get into Bitcoin now? on: February 20, 2024, 06:34:29 PM
Choice is in your hands, no one is certain of the price movement in the first place. No one can guarantee that the price won't fall so better make an entry depending on your risk tolerance. Why? you could make an entry no matter when you would want to. If the market price suddenly falls, then know to yourself if you could endure seeing temporary loss; will only be permanent once you choose to sell despite of loss. In my belief, you could a price of it lower than its previous ATH, will always be a good entry point as long as you could afford losing. Butcoin's market value is expected to break its ATH and the only problem is when will it exactly happen. Therefore you need to be patient and to wait for it.

Downside of waiting for a lower market price is missing your assumed entry point.  If it is just general possibility then its price could fall half of its price and recover, it may also continue to upward direction. Bottomline is lack of assurance with things in particular with its market price.
376  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Price of Bitcoin and Ethereum on: February 20, 2024, 05:39:34 PM
So does the price of Ethereum really go up when the price of Bitcoin goes up? And does Bitcoin's bull market actually coincide with Ethereum's bull market? What is your opinion on this matter? And correct me if I'm wrong.
Price of these cryptos are aligned, I guess. And that doesn't mean that they should both have the same market value. They have different token supply, release date, projects running on their chains, and more. If it is parallelism, then these two simply got it, especially if it is price direction. There will be times the market price increase of Bitcoin is higher than with ETH's and vice versa but that's probably due to the volume by that particular time. Also with factors such as price manipulation; there's no consistency with lmist everything when it comes on cryptocurrencies in the first place so I guess things are just normal if that's just the only concern.
Bitcoin is always the best and never compare the altcoins market with Bitcoin. Where bitcoin price was before and where it is now may make your head spin even a few months ago, if you had pocketed for bitcoins you could have made huge profits today. All altcoins including ethereum, follow the price of bitcoin in the market. If bitcoin goes up then altcoins will go up naturally so almost all tokens will pump in the bull market. So when the price of bitcoin increases then the price of other tokens increases
If it is just market price then there are altcoins which had a higher price increase for a shorter period of time making it not the best aspect to determine which one is better as a coin. Bitcoin indeed has a supremacy in this industry but I think the one being discussed here is the correlation between the market price of Bitcoin and ethereum only and not which is  is the best. Due to that supremacy as well, Bitcoin is more of the 'leader' of trends.
377  Economy / Gambling / Re: How Crypto casino market themselves? on: February 20, 2024, 04:55:27 PM
I am curious to know who are their targeted audience and at what age group. In general gambling people target countries like thailand more but probably this is not the case with crypto. Do they target nerds or total dumbs? How efficient they are between their marketing tactics?

If I were the owner of an online casino and asked about the first thing I would do to market it, I would prioritize building the casino's reputation. Why? Building a good reputation for your online casino is super important. It helps players trust you and encourages them to return and attracts new players. Also having a good reputation makes it easier to comply with regulations and maintain success and especially considering the competition from other casinos.
But how will you build a reputation if you are still introducing the platform? Of course we know how important it is given that we re talking about 'marketing something', so I think it would be better to find your target audience first. In this discussion, it is mentioned that the platform is not only a 'normal' online casino, but speficically web 3.0 or blockchain based. Is there a  difference? Yes! especially with the mode of payments and the transaction itself. Once you found the target audience or players, try doing a research on what would be the best approach to gain their attention and I think one is with welcome bonuses, games to offer, free spins (?) and such. You have to make them try the platform and that is where struggle could take place gigen that there are too many gambling sites present. You have to think of something that will crete an edge over the competitors just like with releasing a normal product. Advertisements, is one way to do so.
378  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A famous influencer lost more than $4000 in just 2 minutes. (2) on: February 20, 2024, 04:20:38 PM

Even with a rich guy gambling, still has this regret he just made, so how much more for an average guy to take the risk of spending his hard earned money just to gamble?

Everyone is prone to losing anyway. But I believe that's not all he got so at least, he'd be able to recover with it somehow. It just sounds like a huge money on our end and that thing is normal especially if you don't usually bet amounts of such. But going back with the point, al of us here experienced and are experiencing loss from time to time in gambling. Bottomline is one's risk appetite; if you lost an amount larger than yiur monthly income then for sure that would hurt for a long period of time. And in his case, assuming that he wagered that amount as his extra money, he'd be fine eventually. He might even get back with that amount from monetization given that the video itself gained views. Much of an influencer scheme. But I hope he's doing good still. And that single clip should be a warning to those players who plans to bet big.

Have you experienced this kind of situation wherein you spend huge amount of money and then regret after the loss? Is your reaction the same with that guy on the video?
Well yes, especially on my fresh start. I was being too hasty with my decisions because I jad a belief that gambling could make me rich in no time. Realization came when I lost more than half of my savings from chasing the loss. That was really a sad moment for me and no one will like having feelings of regret right? Fortunately I managed to accept things and learned how to control my emotions and bankroll as well, whenever I am betting.
379  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Wins: Your Money Was Returned to You. on: February 19, 2024, 05:59:30 PM
There already are tons of gambling websites and casinos with more popping up everyday around the globe. This is because they are profitable, very profitable, and with the fact that their major source of revenue is your stake, with the only other one I can think of being ad revenue on their website, this means they are profiting off the players.

Majority of players lose everyday with only a few winning and they also structure the games to favor the house and put you at the disadvantage. Just gamble for fun and do not stake too much on it.

- Jay -
The rise of gambling platforms doesn't mean that players are all profitable in gambling. Rather it is because casino owners see how many people are hooked up with the idea of earning profit from this industry and that is what they are taking advantage of. It would be much reasonable to say that more people are seeing the demand in gambling which makes them desire of being the provider than a consumer. House most of the time wins in the first place and knowing how many gambling sites are being born nowadays, is not a surprise.
There have been saying that before you win a game in gambling, you would have lost enough funds and that means you didn't win any new or extra money to yourself but the casino return part of your money which you have lost before to you. And some will still say that what about those who have not playing gamble before and they won in their first day in gambling. Well those people newly converts to the gambling system will still dash the casino company that win again because the first time win is always to lure them to the system and making them to perpetual adoration to gamble. And I don't think someone in the gambling industry has as a win win gambling history. Or you wins are bigger than the loss. And all the experiences I have in gambling I have not seen that and also those of my friends who are gamblers have not to me that they only win and there is no loss record in their gambling history. And all the ones I have seen and known, the loses are more than the wins. And when I carefully look at the argument I also accept the assertion that what you win was part of your loss. Is that true? Make your input.
Well, honestly there are gamblers who are in profit. It depends on your gambling habits; those who are in profit are either ones who won the jackpot or those which are often securing winnings. The idea behind this is consistency and inconsistency. Nothing's consistent in gambling; you won't win continuously but that also means you won't lose always. If you are able to manage your bankroll and wagers, then you could be in profit. The only instance you'd be permanently at loss if if you lose increasing amounts but if it is with the opposite such as being able to lower your bet after a win, or to be consistent in a way with the amount you are betting, then you could be in profit. There are factors which differs the idea; the game you are playing and overall efficiency as a gambler. With pure luck games, gambling consistently will put you in huge loss but with strategical gambling activities such as sports betting, you would only bet on times you are confident with the team or players you are interested with. Key to profit is management of funds, and control with emotions while gambling. This might not be evident to all gamblers but we cannot generalize that everyone has the same fate and fortune.
Yes there are, but we cannot set aside the fact that most of the gamblers are in loss, in the long run. There are just gamblers, as you have mentioned, which are lucky enough to win big amount of money. Those who won varies on the wy they handle their winnings. Those who will be eager to re-use the money in gambling are the ones ending to lose all of those which they earned.

It was with DOGE to be honest. I was one of the investors who became unrealistic and greedy for a moment that time before its market price drastically fell, in a short period of time. Same reason why I never engaged that much with meme tokens after the incident. Fortunately, I managed to hold up until now and now quite closing the gap between the loss. Just turned out to be a lesson; an expensive one. It was my fault not setting a stoploss because I overlooked at the market behavior before. Meme tokens are a good option still, if you know how to ride with the 'wave' on its market prices. I haven't make use that much of the resources such as communities of tgar token, which is an important aspect to at least lessen the chances for a huge loss.

This was just the biggest but with other coins and projects, I am also prone with loss; we all do. I experienced engaging with scam projects, dead coins, and the likes and those are just part of the process, I guess. So far I became more meticulous with the coins I am being interested with and profit comes more than loss. Especially at this point wherein bullmarket is anticipated. This is the right time to accumulate decent amounts and wait for prices to soar. But still, manage the expectations 'coz nothing will be earned easily.
