Really? Fortune tellers? Nobody ever proved me that they're right (if they would be..... Everything would have been better in this world). Nobody can tell you when you're lucky, and you're going to waste a ton of time and money on "fortune tellers" lol. The only way to see your luck in gambling... Is to look at your recent bets on the history and see if you had or not luck.
3782  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: November 19, 2016, 07:14:23 PM
Imagine having this feeling and that feeling is so good but you only get it every once in a while. You would want to repeat that again and again. You want every second of your life to feel that feeling. Our brain does that when we win in gambling. When you win money in gambling, you'll feel that amazing thing that you can actually double your money in just seconds. You then eventually consider that feeling as a necessity.

For me, whenever I deposited, it worked this way both when I lost and when I won. Because when you lose you want to get the red bets back to green, you want profit and not loss. And from "I want X profit" you'll reach the point where you'll say "I want my money back". If you are lucky to get your money back, you'll want profit again. And you'll lose in the long run.

To be honest, everyone wishes they became rich from such a simple way of income. Gambling isn't even considered a way to earn your living but a way to entertain yourself. A lot of lives are being ruined by gambling because they do not understand the real risks. Everything looks fine until you do a wrong move. And that move will lead to just another wrong move. And so on, until you lose all.
3784  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How much does it cost to create a btc gambling site? on: November 19, 2016, 07:07:48 PM
At first you need if you wanna to make your website atractive to others, or make just a clean casino, with that said i do believe you can make a casino with 10-20 bitcoins, as you will need some extra bitcoins to handle rewards and jackpots, something around 40-50 bitcoins to handle casino and big wins should be enought.

To start off you don't need $300k to create a website. Like most websites did, you can start with a simple interface, a few basic games like dice and roulette, and then you will create the rest as soon as you have enough profit to be worth it. $5k would be perfect for a simple and secure website, in my opinion.
3785  Other / Archival / Re: Do you agree with idea "Bitcoin bank" ? on: November 19, 2016, 03:03:18 PM
Yes I agree with bitcoin bank, I sure with bitcoin bank make more popular and make new job opportunities. Maybe can help poor countries and save all products.

But.... What about the anonymity we're mostly looking for here? Bitcoin bank = no privacy. We already had our privacy taken by the states because they wanted to.. Now this is the only place I finally feel like home. I prefer not being known by anyone else.. A Bitcoin bank will take away the most important features Bitcoin normally has..
3786  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BitCoin 20 Years From Now on: November 19, 2016, 03:00:50 PM
Into 20 years will be mined around 90% from total coins avaible with that said, i do believe the demand and supply will work on those time, and i dont know the possible value, but i believe it will be around 2000 dollars.


think that it will be that much mined in 20 years I don't think so for price it might be higher then 2000


Too early think about the future of bitcoin, if we can spend some of your time for read about the latest news.
I have read about the first national crypto going to run in the future.
Could we have thought again about the future of bitcoin besides from his rate?

Yeah, it was Norway or Sweden as far as I can remember. That sounds great, people will find out about Bitcoin. One country having a cryptocurrency will mean more Bitcoin users, so a higher price. About how it'll look in 20 years.... Well, nobody can predict that. Even predicting one year ahead is hard. I'm saying Bitcoin will reach a high price by next winter but we never know what can happen until then..
3787  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to win gambling with no lose? on: November 19, 2016, 02:57:00 PM
There is no way to win gambling with no lose. You will get lose sometimes.
Gambling is such a game, Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. That is a rule, you have to take it.

Agree, its impossible to play without losing thats part of the game and we need to accept it. sometimes you are lucky to win but there is also a moment that you will lose. gambling is risky and cant promise you sure money.

This. I've been lucky a few weeks ago, I got 20k satoshis from a referral on a dice website and I've tried 10x all in and I won. After that, I tried 2x and it worked again. I got 400k from 20k in two bets. I didn't feel like I would risk a lot of money... I mean come on, 20k isn't even $0.5. You need luck to win. Otherwise there's no other way to gamble without loss.
3788  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin is Becoming a Global Currency on: November 19, 2016, 02:50:43 PM
Yes bitcoin is used all over the world but only a few thousand in every country if bitcoin wants to become a global currency i think is should be used by 1/4 or half the human population.
yes that is a fact that bitcoin is almost using all the countries of the world therefore to me bitcoin is alread a global currency. more and more  people of the world are entering in the filed of bitcoin and making bitcoin becoming more and more stringle
yes that is a fact that bitcoin is almost using in all over the world, but the number of bitcoin users is still very low, as most of the people still do not know about bitcoin. bitcoin still need good advertisement so that people may know about bitcoin.

No doubt about it bitcoin now is being used as global currency by those people who only know bitcoin but still we may say that it is still not applicable or quite sort of. But in conclusion, there are people from different countries that has been using bitcoin in the long run as investment, currency and trading platform globally.

Though bitcoin is used all over the world by people living in different countries, but it is still not that much a global currency as it is not yet legalized or used in many countries, i heard only about a few countries where bitcoin is used or accepted in physical world otherwise it is just a internet currency.
it does not need to be legalize to be called as global currency, the volume of supporters is making it possible and no matter this is not legal as long as it's no illegal also we can still succeed in the future. The fact that we have freedom in here then it would certainly attract people to adopt.
yes that is a fact that some thing that is not legalize cannot become a legal currency, for becoming globalize it is necessary for some thing to become a global currency that it should be use through out the world, and i think bitcoin is using in all over the world almost in all the countries of the world.


But it can be also legalize when majority of the people are using it even it is still not being considered by the government. So if the people are shouting to legalize bitcoin and adopt it as global currency then the government will don't have choice but to legalize it. As they do believe in Vox Populi.
very often politicians tend to be for or against something solely based on the what will bring me more votes. but this requires a much bigger user base and in order to get this legalization would be helpful. it is a circle.

And how will we be in their control after they'll legalize Bitcoin and make it an official payment method? The politicians are looking to control as much as they can so they can steal as much as possible from us. Most of our money (and I'd say it's over 75% of it) goes to their pockets, unlike the promises they're making everytime before they're elected. It's all about beautiful words, you know.
3789  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Europeans are being forced to accomodate rapefugees. on: November 19, 2016, 02:45:41 PM
I think that your statement is very wrong.
Refugees is not equal to rapists.
Refugees are also human beings, not animals.
They also deserve to live, to receive second chance.
Any country in EU have to follow common European laws, including obligation to help people in need.
It's also act of kindness and love, as well, toward other human being.
If a few refuges raped somebody, we can't call all refugees rapists.



I'm not racist in any way and I am not trying to spread hate or anything. However:

Have you ever been to Germany? I have, three times this year. I have talked to many Germans about the refugees and they do NOT like their presence there. Why? Because everything is being censored. Why do we never see all these news on TV? Rapists are now everywhere. People are afraid to even go out in some cities. I never hated any race or religion, but the problem is that the good guys never get to Europe because only the bad guys are capable to do that. They can steal, rape and follow different methods that are going to basically ease their job. They are being paid MORE than my uncle is, and he's been working there for years already! How would you feel to be working 10 hours a day for €900 a month and they get €1500 for doing nothing? It's not about being racist or something, but this is just the islamization of our world. Slowly, but happening. The good guys never get to Europe because they cannot steal to live. Yes, refugees are stealing to make a living. They are not even identified. They are not arrested for coming WITHOUT AN ID to Germany but we are. This is not fair, trust me.
3790  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How to explain bitcoin to teenagers or children on: November 19, 2016, 02:36:47 PM
Bitcoin is difficult to explain. I also felt difficulties in understanding bitcoin for the firs time. Let's share how to explain bitcoin to children of teenagers. In My country I can say 98% children don't know bitcoin. In fact, bitcoin can be future money. If the children not familiar with cryptocurrency or bitcoin, how can they face the digital era in the future.

Well I think teens or children doesn't really need to know that much about bitcoin, you can just tell them that bitcoin is a Cryptocurrency and that's it! if they would question you if what is cryptocurrency then I think explain to them how real money works and I think that would be your base for cryptocurrency, and when they turn older enough they I think that would be the time they can fully understand about it!

I would say we should even not tell them if something like bitcoin exists, because it is not really easy to understand the technology of bitcoin and it will just make them confused, better let them grow older and then they would themselves come to know about it or you should tell them about it later on.

Yup! that is what I'm trying to say, I think the debate about this topic is already finish and I think that teenagers or a child should not be teach any cryptocurrency involvement until they reach the exact age they can understand about it, but well teenagers now a days have been very easily learn this thing maybe I think It will always comes to the ability of a child if he can understand pretty well or not !
Maybe if the state program of teaching children to be in computer science include knowledge of cryptocurrency it would greatly simplify the task of understanding what children bitcoin. Perhaps this is the best way out than at home try to impose their ideas to the child.

We'll never see the governments support Bitcoin. At least not the ones in which there is censorship, dictatorship or control being wanted. For example the Switzerland and the Netherlands do allow Bitcoin to be used because they're countries in which you actually feel free for real. North Korea probably won't let their citizens use Bitcoin, for example.
3791  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: India is Paying $900+ for Bitcoin Amid Cash Crisis on: November 19, 2016, 02:32:40 PM
i never thought i live to see the day that people of a country actually start buying bitcoin this massively and this expensive just because there is a financial crisis going on in their country.

we have already heard some news about it in Greece and two other places before but they were mostly talk and no action. this time they are actually buying bitcoin!

The safest currencies are the only ones that have the possibility to live during a crisis in this world. In our case, it should be Gold and Bitcoin. Bitcoin as the second because it's virtual and without Internet or electricity we can do NOTHING with it. Gold requires a small space for 1kg (it's as small as a phone), and Gold was always the best one during the World Wars. This is why the traders are relying on Gold too.
3792  Economy / Speculation / Re: Nobody is talking about the reason for this rise! on: November 19, 2016, 02:18:07 PM
It's probably India and Trump. People are always investing in anything else but their local currency when they don't feel safe about their country anymore. In India, the price for one Bitcoin reached $900 a few days ago. That's huge, and will probably be influential for us too: the price will rise.
3793  Other / Archival / Re: Which one is more risky? Skill-based gambling or trading? on: November 19, 2016, 11:09:46 AM
i think both have the same risky but you are not explain in trading, professional trading or just trading like others people which have new comer until middle skill? but if for trading you make for new comer person, then trading is more risky than skill-based gambling.

Second the motion, whether it is skill-based gambling or trading it will be just the same when it comes to the risk that we are taking.

Because trading is also a skill-based type of investment so that will make it a tie. And the only gambling game which is pure skill-based is sports betting.

Even you have good analyzing with the involved teams and matches still that is risky for we are not assured who will win that game.

I agree.. skill-based gambling and trading are both risky because there's always a money at stake and you have to predict what will be the outcome. But skill-based gambling like sports betting have more chance for you to win if you're really good at the game and know to analyze it the chances of winning is higher than doing it in trading.

It depends on where you are more skilled when it comes to in profiting for both of it. Because there people who manage to earn good for both ways.

And there are people who manage to make their profit from trading to be used in sports betting.

So the more risk you will take the higher possibility that you will earn.

The higher risk there is, the higher possibility of LOSING is actually. Because it's enough just once to lose and you're going to become greedy and will keep on betting until you get your lost money back AND profit. They're both as risky, but if you know how to play then you're going to be fine with it.
3794  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To Gamble or To Invest? on: November 19, 2016, 09:19:27 AM
Gamble if you are desperate of making money as investment will take time for you to become rich, it's only good for investor who have a decent capital.

No it's not, it takes you luck and not time to win. You can never be lucky or you can always be (which is pretty rare), but this is the only factor that matters when it comes to gambling. I don't think there's any possibility to be lucky every single time because that'd mean you could make billions out of nothing.
3795  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to Turn Gambling into a Profitable Activity on: November 19, 2016, 09:16:07 AM
In gambling we can't assure our daily win or daily profit some times if we are just pushing our luck and keep playing in gambling we are just loosing our money in gambling i don't think that you can really turn gambling into profitable activity but if you have skills and your good in gambling i think there are chance.

Who can? Even the professional are not making money easily and even the gambling site are not making daily profit.

i think the good point that gambling can give to us is we still playing gambling even we know the risk and we are learn to stay focus with gambling. stay focus its a good thing and maybe its profitable activity because stay focus is really hard to be learn and need time to mastered it.

but for all reason, i think gambling can not be change into profitable activity and better to stay away from gambling before its too late for us.

It can if you take the advantage over the gambler and that is when you invest or make your own site.

There are rare days in which the casinos are not making profit. It's not often for them unless the site has been exploited or the users are very lucky. PrimeDice had such problems in which someone exploited the website and was able to take all the bank roll, so it happens. You cannot turn it into a profitable activity though unless you've got your own casino or unless you're lucky.
3796  Other / Archival / Re: Which one is more risky? Skill-based gambling or trading? on: November 19, 2016, 09:12:48 AM
For me skill based game is more risky, it is gambling. Although trading is somewhat a gambling too. It is not like a poker where you'll play against the house. Unlike in trading theres no house edge you need to beat. All you need is analyze and predict.

Trading needs a skill and without skill, if you trade just thinking that prices may go up in future then it will be almost same as gambling. All gambling games including skill based games needs luck to make money so I chose these games only for enjoyment and for earning money then I will chose investments like trading and other means.

There are many people who got friends that are in different positions, and can give them info about something before happening. For example, the millionaires and the billionaires worldwide have got such friends and this is how they know the answers many times before we do. Skill might work too, but you need to study what the chances are for something to happen.
3797  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What Happen If Gambling was not introduced? on: November 19, 2016, 06:09:18 AM
If bitcoin will not introduced to people then no one will rich in gambling i think gambling can make people rich in just onw lucky blow when you are in casinos and play poker games and other. and there are no owner gambling rich right now and people are really hard to earn money.

The possibility of gambling not existing is very small, and the number of people who would have become rich from gambling is small too because only the chosen ones are becoming rich out of it. Without gambling I can say that more people would have a better life right now because a lot of us are betting everytime more than we wanted to when we begun our day so many become actually homeless because of that.
3798  Other / Off-topic / Re: How many Bitcoins are lost forever? on: November 18, 2016, 10:38:10 PM
There are LOTS of accounts with low amounts in them. It looks like the total is small, but it's just an illusion - because there are probably MILLIONS of wallets out there with 1k-5k satoshis. There are tens, if not hundreds of thousands of Bitcoins lost forever. I'm wondering what will happen in the future... I mean, people will keep losing their money and although there are small sums, the fact that there are A LOT of transactions makes a big amount out of it.
3799  Economy / Economics / Re: Switzerland=Bitcoin Boom on: November 18, 2016, 10:34:24 PM
I don't think the two can merge. Banks are never going to be anonymous - they want to keep track of their own users, so if you're looking for anonymity then you're in the wrong place, I guess. If you'd make an account in their bank, it means your anonymity is going to be completely gone because they're looking to control as much as they can.
3800  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How much time to 30 losses on a roll on: November 18, 2016, 10:32:03 PM
I've been unlucky enough to win as much as 20 rolls in a row from my first time sometimes. If you're unlucky, there's absolutely nothing you can do about it. Just try to play for fun and not for profit. 30 losses in a row are easier to achieve than it might look.
