Young people should go on bitcoin, because right now they need to know to invest and earn extra income, for their future purposes. Develop their skills is important that they have already knowledge if times comes that they want to invest in bitcoin they have already an idea. There's nothing to wrong at the very low age they started invest, the important how to earn while they are young and importance of bitcoin its a big help as they grow old, but we just need to guide them always.
I agree with you, young people should use bitcoin. This will help them become financially independent. And this may be the beginning of the collapse of the banking system. The younger generation will go to bitcoin, and the banking system with large commissions will become unnecessary

It is a good opportunity for all young people to start earning bitcoin now but we can't force them. There are people who would be interested in bitcoin that they will persevere and will work hard to earn but it is normal to still have people who would doubt bitcoin. We all know about that, not all millennials are interested in these and there are also people who don't have good internet connection like in provinces so basically it is possible that many people could never heard about bitcoin.
382  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you use analysis when play gambling? on: August 06, 2017, 06:43:00 PM
I do some analysis like how much would I bet for that certain round and when I lose, I would compute how much would I bet to get back the amount I lose in the first round and would analyze how many rounds would I be able to sustain my funds if I will always lose. In this way, I would be able to control myself in betting more.

It is good to know that someone values money, there are many people who would not care if they lose small or big amount. What is important for them is that their craving or unnecessary need to play gambling is satisfied which is very wrong. Not all games need analysis, gambling games based on luck does not but I do really think that there will be analysis in there somewhere which is in the money management just like what you are doing. We must be careful in betting because in just one click we might lose a good fortune.
383  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How many people are asking you about Bitcoin now? on: August 06, 2017, 06:18:45 PM
I've been talking about Bitcoin to family, friends and random people for years and nobody seemed to mind when BTC was under $1000. But now that Bitcoin has reached $2000, people are starting to realize that owning 1 BTC is beginning to be out of reach for the average person.

I've had more people ask me about Bitcoin lately and wanted help buying Bitcoins. What about you?
There are some people, they are my friends. I used to tell them about bitcoin and they care about it for the profit it brings. In my family hardly anyone knows about it, although I have mentioned it. They are not interested in things related to the economy or market fluctuations!

In our school, many people are getting interested now with bitcoin because they have learned that huge profit can be made from it. I have learned about bitcoin from my classmate too and I am very thankful that he encouraged us to try this. My parents are trying to their best to support us in all of our needs and studies but they cannot avoid having debts and loans because life is really hard. Through earning bitcoin, I was able to help myself in studying as well as my parents in paying our debts which I am very happy about.

Some people would like to know how I am able to do that but I only told those whom I think who needs it too. It is not that I am being selfish, it is just that some of them would just want to get in trend since most in our classrooms are doing bitcoin now.

One of the biggest trust I have read here, thanks OP for sharing your opinion here, I think this thread must be pinned to avoid seing crying faces of another unsuccessful traders.

I agree, his experience in trading should be a lesson for other newbies who think that easy to make profit through trading.
Bitcoin really has advantages which makes it growing bigger over time, so no need to panic if its price drop back because in the end it will always recover.
We've been going through all this years with bitcoin and the cycle always repeated, keep holding your bitcoin and it will worth even more as time goes on.

If a trader succeeds in trading, the profit gained will surely be big. Trading is one of the considered best methods in earning and gaining profit but it does not just go with clicking the buy or sell button. In order to succeed we must study and learn how to it in the most wisest way to avoid failures. Honestly, I have been doing trading since I learned that the profit here is big but I still experience loosing better opportunities. Trading will always be like that, it will never be easy and there will no right time to do it but if we will study it first we can avoid getting disappointed in the end. Trading must surely come with being sport, we can never achieved big but we can continue trying in order to learn.
385  Economy / Economics / Re: bitcoin provide income on line? on: August 06, 2017, 05:32:54 PM
many of my friends did not work but a lot of money away was great when compared, to me that is still working in the factory, I was confused from where producer obtained from bitcoin?
Actually, by using bitcoin you could make and earn huge amount of money. In addition to that, bitcoin is profitable and it may also serve as your job that give you high salary. As of now many people use their in there business and because of that their capital become double or triple. I think bitcoin will help to becomr rich in the future.

Aside from being profitable which is true, bitcoin does provide as an extra income online which is very convenient for anyone who spent lot of their time online. I know that there are many other online jobs that we can do like online business but still, the possibility to earn big is greater when it comes to crypto currencies. Another thing is that the amount that we can earn from here through bitcoin can be bigger than the salary that we can earn from regular jobs. Yes, this is true, I know someone who have experienced it but he did not leave his regular job because it is not necessary.
386  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If money would not be a problem, would you still gamble? on: August 06, 2017, 05:06:20 PM
Even if money was not a problem, i would still gamble. Personally, gambling is an entertainig activity that i've been doing for a long while and it's also a source of money.

I seldom play gambling but I can say that it is really fun and entertaining. I know that there are many other ways to do for us to get relaxation and to get away from our stress full jobs or school works but there is nothing wrong with playing gambling right? It is just for relaxation anyway and I don't use it for earning profit.

I would still gamble if money wouldn't be a problem because if we have enough money or lots of it then we would not worry about losing. Losing in gambling is sad but if you have money, you wouldn't think about spending the amount that should be allotted for more important things.
387  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Are You Disappointed In Trading? on: August 06, 2017, 04:13:01 PM
yes lost lots of money
There's no use to be disappointed in trading.Trading is always like that,the high and low rate of trading is just normal and I already experienced that with my parents when they trade their livestocks. It's just so similar when trading coins. What's good im trading btc is it won't spoil or feed it you just need to have strong will and patience.

Correct, when it comes to trading no one really knows if when is the right time to sell your coins as well as buy other coins. What we can do is to follow what seems to be the golden rule in here which is "sell high buy low". Based from what I learned from my previous trading, spending too much time in monitoring the market prices can be a little stressful especially if you are going to sell one of your coins. Our emotions will greatly affect how we decide so it will be better to just set an order and then just check on the market price in order to be updated of the current prices.
388  Economy / Economics / Re: Why You Should Never Sell Your Bitcoins Ever on: August 06, 2017, 03:48:37 PM

 Having a decision about not selling your bitcoin ever was hard to do. There are only two things that can happen, maybe the time comes that its price rises so high or maybe it will gone soon. I prefer the first choice to happen. But to be safe devide it into two, in crypto and to real cash.


I agree with that. There is no assurance that there will be profit gain if we continue to keep our bitcoin. Keeping it depends on the situation and of course, if you really need money you will surely deduct an amount from your savings. Looking at its market price now, keeping bitcoin is surely beneficial but it will not always be like this. There will be times and days where bitcoin's price might fall down and converting it to cash will be an option.

It is not wrong to keep your bitcoin as well as spending or using it for good things especially in emergencies or in helping your family.
389  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Giving up gambling is not easy on: August 06, 2017, 04:46:57 AM
giving up gambling isn't easy for sure , but it's possible just like smoking you will struggle in the first couple of months then you get used to it
but anyways people should enjoy  gambling and gamble only what they afford to lose , that way is fun and safe
or learn some skill games that you can actually make money , like poker and sportsbetting

It is not easy and I have tried alot of method to stop but it is really hard for me to stop. Sooner or later I keep on thinking about comig back to play that is why I cant stop. I choose to play wih a smaller amount nowadays so that I dont lose alot of money when I lose. This is better han losing money when I play for profit

Well, at least you have tried and is still trying. Setting limitations for yourself especially with the amount that will be used in playing gambling only shows that you are trying to control yourself. Loosing lots of money in gambling is very painful and looking at the current price of bitcoin in the market, accumulating those loss money could be a fortune right now. Playing gambling is fun and is very relaxing but we should be aware how dangerous it is when we became so addicted with it. We should set in our minds that in gambling, it is very easy to get addicted but is very hard to quit from it.
390  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Fun seeking gamblers vs profit seeking gamblers on: August 06, 2017, 02:58:53 AM
Which side you are gambling ? Are you successful with your intentions of gambling ?

I read finding entertainment from gambling is possible for all the gamblers still it is not a preferred way for all the gamblers. Here we must note all profit seeking gamblers are not successful with their attempts.

How you are gambling honestly and what is your suggestion to a newbie ?
At first I always see gambling as a source of entertainment then after I accumulated enough money I started gambling for profit on  the first week I was doing well winning a nice amount of bitcoins from playing slots always doubled or tripled my deposit to make me cashout then repeat the same thing on the next day. The next week things ended up pretty bad for me lost all my profits so i'm back from where I started. I stopped playing on casinos and moved to sports betting. My suggestion to a newbie that wants to gamble is always expect losses to come your way.

I do really think that it is better to suggest for newbies to never start at gambling. Gambling is a very tricky method to earn profit and playing it is very risky. As a newbie without experiences it will be very hard to control emotions especially if you have lost in most of your played games. Playing gambling will only be a waste of time for you. Gambling should be just for fun and relaxation and I strongly suggest to never gamble if you don’t have money for these kind of games.

As for me, I only gamble for fun and if I win any game I feel happy, of course, but I see to it that I am also contented with that. I don’t spend much of my time in gambling sites because I am a very busy student.
391  Economy / Economics / Re: Worst bitcoin decision you've ever made? on: August 04, 2017, 06:44:57 PM
At the very beginning, I sold my coins because of panic and lost the opportunity to earn something because I was a beginner and I was very much afraid that bitcoin would disappear.

Right, I also had the same experience with you. Because of panic selling I had also lost the opportunity to gain more profit and I really do regret that I was carried away with my emotions at that time. It was the time when the news about hard fork is very hot which had caused many people to sell their bitcoin resulting to a dump in price. I had sold my bitcoin too in a very low price because I was afraid that it will continue to go down and that it will be hard for it recover. After that, the market price suddenly goes up making it reached up to $2600. I was really sad about that. I really do wish that I could have hold more to my bitcoin. I loss a very good amount which was 50% profit.
392  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you do something while you gamble? If so, what? on: August 04, 2017, 06:14:21 PM
I'm gambling right now. So in a way, I like to gamble my bitcoin while posting on bitcointalk. But I usually gamble on my commutes to and from home.

As for me, it depends. If I am playing online I watched videos while playing on gambling sites. Watching videos helps me to remain calm if the game is not good and if the game was being affected by the internet speed causing me to lose. If I am playing gambling offline which is with the other folks here in our town who also do gambling,  I don't do anything while playing. I focus in the game because one wrong move will also cause me to lose in the game and I have nothing to blame but myself only. I also play gambling through mobile applications that can downloaded from the store, my 100% attention is also unnecessary here because the money being use in playing the rounds are also from the game which means no money from your wallet is used in here.
393  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: My first day of trading on: July 30, 2017, 04:29:43 PM
Trading is very exciting and fun, in my first day of trading I had already lost enough money while trying to transfer money between exchanges but this is way to learn.

Honestly, my first day of trading was consumed of watching over the market price because the price of the coins at that time is very low. I know that it is not a good time to trade but I needed some money for personal reason that is why I was forced to sell one of my coins and trade it, hoping that I would not loss somehow huge profit. Unfortunately, my wish didn't come true, after two days the price of the coin I sold rises as well as the bitcoin's price which is $2800. I feel very weak because I had realized that I should have earned half of my money. This situation was a lesson to me that whenever the coins pump I should consider trading some to earn profit.
394  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: I'm panicking, tell me it will be OK... on: July 30, 2017, 03:58:41 PM
The decreasing is getting worse, the volatility in the market had cause difficulty for me to do trading, the price really unstable and unpredictable, but if you are a long term investor then there will be no problem, unless you are investing in alt coin, if you are investing in Bitcoin then you can relax

It will be alright. Just wait and have patience on its price. It is because bitcoin price was constantly fluctuating and doesn't have a fixed value, so maybe the there is a tendency to increase again. I'm not panicking but, it is better to prepare what would possibly gonna happen on August 1. I've already cashed out all money in my wallet. Better to prepare than regret.

Right we should not panic in what had happened. Be optimistic and think of that dump as a n opportunity to buy bitcoin. Anyways, bitcoin had recovered fast from that dump caused by the announcement of split and segwit that might happen in August 1. Bitcoin had reached $2800 because of that which is a good example of how we calm we should be at times like this. What we need to do is to prepare ourselves for August 1, I had also converted my bitcoin into fiat currency just to make sure that I won't lost the money that I worked hard for.

 It will be better to wait until August 1 to see if the segwit will really help the market prices of the coins.
395  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin in College??? on: July 30, 2017, 02:24:25 PM
Bitcoin as a course or any related currency on web.
In my country we have multiple courses in computer especially programing and web developments. My course is also information technology, but i've never heard or learn about online currency as bitcoin. In present, and future studies is there any chances for inserting about it in education. In your country is it available?
It would be better for any country to adopt bitcoin in educating new generations. Instead of playing games and wasting money in surfing xxx sites.
No I don’t think so. We have a math subject and so many computer related subjects and our teacher just only taught basics and only basics. It is very impossible that bitcoin will be a subject and much impossible that bitcoin will become a course. Basic is the very foundation. If know the basic then we can explore. I don’t know a person or teacher in my school that know bitcoin neither them all. Me and my friends just talk about then our teachers heard and they ask “what is bitcoin?” with a confused face.

I can relate with that. My course is also related with computers and most of my professors are like that. Most of my classmates are into crypto currencies but I haven't also heard if any of my professors know about bitcoin. I don't know if bitcoin can be thought in College because as far as I know, many countries are still not accepting it and it will surely have an effect on bitcoin. Also, bitcoin should be legalized first before it can be introduced in school as a subject. If crypto world would be properly introduced to the people, it will surely serve as an opportunity to gain more investors which will help in the market but I think it would also cause confusion to many people.
396  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What kind of worst decisions do you take when trading? on: July 30, 2017, 01:49:58 PM
The most common mistake which all traders have been through is that they are not patient enough. I have a big mistake in the past which I very very regret. There is a coin name XVG on bittrex and when it was 50, I bought some of them and when the price drop, I sold all of them when it decreased to 45. Then, suddenly, it hit 200. WEll, that was my damn mistake and I was very sad after that
yeah i been through that setuation when i first start trading im so weak hands so nervous thats why im so great that some body teach me
the proper mind set of trading and im doing research now.

I've been in this situation too and I think most of the newbies go through in this kind of situation even if they have a mentor. The market has a very big role in playing our emotions and as a newbie its so easy for us to panic sell because we think we are going to lose everything we have without any knowledge that after the dumping there comes the pump and more. I have learned in months of being here in cryptoworld and I can say that I am better now than yesterday.

Yeah we all have been there. Every newbie in trading must have experienced that, I think it is just necessary for us to experience that in order to teach us a lesson which is to be very patient. I also regret selling one of my coins when the split and segwit news was fresh and hot. I loss the opportunity to earn half from that coin and I was very sad because of that.

The market can really affect our emotions in trading. We do not know when is the right time to sell for us to gain profit and there are times when we had already sold our coins when its price suddenly pumps. Again, another loss profit.
397  Economy / Economics / Re: Is trading just educated guessing? on: July 30, 2017, 01:16:00 PM
For me, it is not just an educated guessing. As a new trader, I experienced a  lot of difficulties during my first experience in trading. You have to be careful in your decision on when is the right time to buy and sell to gain some profit.

Somehow, for me, it is making the right decision and not only guessing. You have to be familiar in trading and bitcoin world. Know the strategies and techniques of trading.

Correct, trading crypto currencies is not an educated guessing. Trading is not a joke that we should be serious about it because it is about the money that we have work hard for . A single click can already make a big difference in the amount or profit that you could have earned. Studying and learning how the market will be very helpful for all of us because we will be aware of the things happening in the market and the things that might happen in the market. We all know how all crypto currencies are volatile that each of them have a different time for pump and dump.
398  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know whether its your lucky day? on: July 30, 2017, 12:45:24 PM
A happy day is when you can win many times in a row or win a very large amount of money. This happens sometimes, but still there are such happy days when you finish the game with pleasure.

I envy those who can go home with a smile on their face because of winning in gambling. I gamble but most of the time I lost that is why I won't gamble if I really don't feel like doing so. Winning in gambling is very hard and we would often loss a big amount before winning.

Honestly, we can't tell whether today is our lucky day until we win big. No one can predict if when is the day and time that they are going to win in gambling. There is no instrument that can tell us either, this is the reason why we can consider that gambling is purely based on luck.
399  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: You lose only if you sell on: July 30, 2017, 11:43:55 AM
Bitcoin resistance around 1814-1840 reached = STRONG support


If segwit2x activated and fully operational this weekend = back to 3,000 $ +++++


If not = hard fork = bitcoin will be traded around 900 $

What do you think ?
LOL , if segwit is activated or not the price will still recover segwit days and dumps is just an speculation and its effect is now going on in the market  .
Bitcoins will never go back in $900 that was too low and cheap if that happens maybe bitcoins will go down more than on it but as i said it will never happen . Keep holding on the price might have a new high after segwit.
Cheesy Segwit or not I think BTC prices will remain stable even will be expensive in the future. This is because bitcoin has gained the trust of the community.

I agree with you. I also think that the segwit will cause good things in the crypto world. I believe that it will only make the market price of bitcoin and the other tokens and coins higher. I had already loss an opportunity to gain profit before the segwit because I am one of those people who sold their bitcoins due to panic selling. I am new to trading and I was scared that my bitcoin in my wallet would dissapear because of the split. I converted most of my bitcoin into fiat during the dump and I regret it because after that, bitcoin recovered easily reaching $2800.
400  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gift For Kid on: July 30, 2017, 09:44:41 AM
For kid as long as it does not use money, it does not matter. Just to play and fun is not so dangerous, just do not teach him to use the money. That's good enough to help the child's mind  power and spur his brain power to get a victory in the game played.
no problem? Are you crazy, should we teach things that are good for kids and if we can explain that games like this should never be played and if your child's age has sufficient explain the bad effects that can be obtained from gambling.

As a parent we have our own decision, gambling is not bad after all we are educated on what is right, the gift was merely a game in gambling but since there is no real money involve there is no risk at all. My kids at a young age already know how to play cards and I don't see any danger on that when they grow up as I will ensure I will give them enough information to fully understand things and view gambling as an entertainment.

We can’t control what is going to be sold in the market. For the parents, it is their duty and responsibility to keep their children safe and happy. Toys like this that should not be sold for kids can be prevented to come out in the market but it will not be our decision to make. As far as I know, there are groups that aims to prevent situations like this and I believe that this should be the concern of the government.

I learned playing card when I was in my grade school, I think I was 10 at that time. My father knows card games but would only teach us card games that are non-related with gambling and betting. In the future, I would not buy things like this for my children to play. I do not want any of them to be involved in gambling at a young age.
