381  Other / Archival / Re: Have you ever won a Jackpot? on: July 14, 2018, 08:53:56 AM
The only jackpot i have won is the prime dice 77.77 one. I have won them three times, but unfortunately the wins weren't that big, The biggest i won from the jackpot was 0.007 BTC. Have you ever won a jackpot in your life? If so how big was it?


"The biggest jackpot from the list below is won by user " tyz" with amount of 3.7 BTC. "
My biggest jackpot I have won was $300 only  since I do not gamble large amount of money and it was long time ago still hoping to win again like thousands or millions hahaha
I will definitely not call winning $300 as having won the jackpot though. I have never won the jackpot and when i say jackpot, I am talking about winning money from at least $20,000 on wards.

Jackpot is not only about the amount won, but it is more about the probability to win it. Someone winning $100k but if it is won with normal winning chance like 50% then it cant be called as jackpot. But small winning can be called jackpot if it is won with so low winning chance.

Jackpot is not really easy to obtain. It is just for people who always gamble. But for a person like me that do not gamble so I never experienced to won a jackpot. Gambling is just for people who have the money to waste and dont have any responsibility to anyone.

Bitcoin needs to improve the time for completing the confirmation so the transaction doesn't need to wait for a long time.


Most of the people who are involved in bicoin wants to improved the transaction because sometimes it takes time to complete the transaction.

Also the security of the bitcoin, I already had experienced hacking my account also lost my saving in btc.
This is just some of the pointers that needs to be improved so that all the hardworks will not just go for nothing.
383  Economy / Economics / Re: Why the price of bitcoin rapidly going down on: July 09, 2018, 07:14:49 AM
because a lot of issue issues that want to fall bitcoin, so the bitcoin price will decrease day by day, in the future bitcoin price will be back to normal as before, I believe and I am sure.

Yes I agree with you that there's a lot of false issues that comes in and spread to other people who dont have any knowledge about bitcoin due to this they judge and criticized bitcoin without knowing what the truth is.

Also because of it almost beginners do the panic selling because they are scared to lose all their money and went for nothing. Sometimes other people say that it is better to have little one than nothing. This is just a sample why the price is falling.
384  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you set up limits for yourself? on: July 09, 2018, 06:24:26 AM
Yes and it's your best way to avoid losing all that you have. I make sure that the money that only that I will gamble is the final amount and I will not be tempted to get another amount. If I'm going to gamble with bitcoin, I turn the rest to cash so I have no other bitcoins to gamble and return if I lose.

That's right because if we don't limit ourselves then we might be sleeping at streets and by doing this we can teach ourselves to not become greedy. I usually just play with fiat and I just let myself play but didn't forget that I should be win at least and of course enjoy every game. Losses are inevitable but I hope that I won't meet him the other way.

I've witnessed some gamblers who have gained a lot of advantage through dice games and keep rolling with all their balance even though some people have warned them about the risks. And in the end, most of them get very bad results. They lose their profit and capital as well. Frankly, without restriction, there is no way to go except sadness.


For me, if I will enter the world of gambling of course I will setup limits for my self not because I dont want money but I want to monitor my self if it is too much or what.
If ever I would gamble I will save money and make sure that if I won I will keep it and stop when I already have enough money. Being selfish and greedy is like an illness that will destroy you. It is not that easy to have money so if you were a wise person limit your self to prevent big loss.

385  Economy / Economics / Re: Investment in Bitcoin vs Investment in Education? on: July 09, 2018, 05:21:17 AM
Education is key as much as laying a sound foundation in it will help you go farther in your easy comprehension/assimilation of what the cryptocurrency markets have. There are levels of educational learnings but the basics is needed to excel in crypto world.


I would suggest to other people who are dealing with cryptocurrency that it is better to invest in education than bitcoin. In education we may have and choose what you will be in the near future.

We cannot depend on bitcoin because it is just for extra income that will help you to live and survive everyday.
You can have a stable source of income not considering the value of bitcoin when you finish studying.
386  Economy / Speculation / Re: Perfect Time to Buy! on: July 09, 2018, 04:11:51 AM
Yes I agree but actually it always perfect to buy bitcoin as long as you can handle it well. As cited in different articles that I read, bitcoin will hit the unexpected value within a couple years. I declared that It will be a battle of patience and a battle of emotion s.

Just use wisely this time. Invest in the cryptocurrency. Those guys, who will be late to do it, might later call themselves the losers. If you do not want to be one of them, buy altcoins and Bitcoin.

Waiting for the perfect timing is when you do search  all about bitcoin and you notice that the price is lower than the past price meaning you have to grab that opportunity that buy bitcoin at that situation so that you'll gonna have more profits on it.

I'll gonna sample my situation, I take the bitcoin late so I regret the day I didn't start to open when my brother told me to open atleast the minimum amount of investment in bitcoin.Now I am starting to open and gain from it.
387  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Things you should know before investing in bitcoin on: July 09, 2018, 02:22:37 AM
I personally am not in favor of promoting bitcoin as an investment. Every time I've talked with my friends about the importance of bitcoin, I've done it with the purpose of expanding their ideas about the future of money, and how we can integrate into modernity through its use. But for those who still see cryptocurrencies as an investment instrument, they should look closely at what has happened in the market recently before risking their money.
 Grin ;D3

There are lot of things you need to know if you are entering cryptocurrency world. You have to search all about the possible scenarios that you can encounter when you engaged with bitcoin. You have to know what are the strategies that the masters do when they face some challenges in bitcoin. You have to know when to buy and sell your bitcoin.

Also you have to know all things about the bitcoin so that you can encourage other people to enter bitcoin. The more you know about it, the more confident you are in encouraging other people.
388  Economy / Speculation / Re: what affects the price? on: July 08, 2018, 03:37:15 PM
bitcoin slowly went down this year, from almost 20k USD last December and went down at a significant price

what might be the reason why bitcoin's price is going down?
what are the major things that can greatly influence bitcoin?
answers would be fully appreciated Smiley
There is nothing special happening, the price went up really fast and logic dictates the price will have to go down very fast as well, the price went down a little bit lower than I thought, I was predicting that we could reach the point of equilibrium at 9000 and we went down to 6000 but that is fine now the only thing to do is to wait for the price to recover again.


There's are some points that are considered what affects the price of a btc. First is when a lot of investors sell their coin therefore the price of bitcoin will become low because of the number of seller. The higher the sellers the lower the price
Next is the social media or news cast about negative side of the bitcoin due to this, some people who are lack of knowledge about it is afraid to enter the cryptocurrency world because they are scared to lose and went for nothing.
389  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Effects of Gambling on: July 08, 2018, 02:47:44 PM
The effects can always be good I took my bounty payment to 777 coin Blackjack and made .003 it was only like 20$ but still. It was a good effect!
C'mon dude, it's gambling so there is no "always be good" thing like you have said. In gambling there is more losses than win. Only few became successful in gambling but never seen a gambler that always good in gambling. Those player who won big also experience unfortunate result.
With gambling there is good as well bad. As in the quote very few were successful through gambling. This can be of the fortune or through the experience one has gained over time. People can earn, but the greed in one's mind after a winning is the one that leads to increased loss through gambling than winning.

Effects on it? it has only one effect if a person get involved in a gambling, it is addiction. Either you win or lose you will get addicted on it before once you win you will become greedy to have more because you think that  if your lucky on that day you can have more  money.

But if you lose you will think that you have to atleast win one game to become happy which is so hard to do.
390  Economy / Speculation / Re: Right time to buy bitcoin "again" ??? on: July 02, 2018, 09:43:12 PM
Its good to invest in deepest price but investigate it if you invest in deep if it will be back to its rise because you invest in first deep then it have second deep or third so your investments will be disappear.

The right time is when you have the opportunity that comes and the price is very low. And you can buy lots of bitcoin.
If you have money then buy lots of it.
391  Economy / Speculation / Re: BIG HOPE FOR BITCOIN on: July 02, 2018, 07:26:16 PM
Thanks for encouraging this is really significantly helpful, because for now all the people are discouraged and frustrated, including me. So yeah we would look on the previous trends, it is it.

Big hope in bitcoin? I really do hope that soon the price will pump  high.

Bitcoin is decreasing and the users, investors, are tired of getting low and low of the price. I hope that startng this month of july the price will goes up ang up.
392  Economy / Economics / Re: Wise thing to do with your savings. on: July 02, 2018, 02:03:27 PM
I see that many of you actually liked the concept of 20 % method wherein you allot 20% of your earnings to be saved as emergency fund.
So I was thinking, if that 20% allotted will be invested in a time deposit kind of account, will it still be possible to earn as much or invest it in cryptocurrency? Or maybe just let the money sleep until such time you will need it?
What will be a wise kove to do with the noney you have saved up?
It is not good if you will just save your money in your cabinet or wallet. If you have a lot of savings, then you should invest it. The inflation rate is always in our economy, if we do not want our money to lose its value; then we should invest it.


Wise thing to do my savings? Its a good question but hard to accept if you dont have any savings.

Well the wise thing to do is separate your money in your savings, the one fourth is put it in the bank account of your children, then the another one fourth is keep it for emergency then the half of your savings is invest it in the stock market so that it will generate income to you.
393  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What does bitcoin need to improve? on: July 02, 2018, 01:10:23 PM
I can clearly see that there are other cryptocurrencies that are beginning to dethrone bitcoin, showing off there quick and secured transactions, though bitcoin continues to be the king. What does bitcoin need to improve state your opinions.
Actually, Bitcoin is good, but Bitcoin has a lot of things to improve, starting with transaction handling, currency is limited to about 3-4 transactions per second, and more than that will only cause the entire system to be flooded with users, but the problem applies to all type of cryptocurrency, you do not see it in other currencies because only Bitcoins are successful in getting a lot of transactions traffic.

For me, bitcoin needs to improve the transaction and the security of the account of one user from hackers.

I've known a lot of people who lost thier money in bitcoin just because of hackers, also some of them hack accounts that have high rank. People who do not have a lot of knowledge in this business will lost their saving in bitcoin.

The number people who are not satisfied and contented on what they have are getting higher than before. The new generation now are really liberated that they dont care even they hurt other people, they only know is they are happy about it.
394  Economy / Speculation / Re: Patience is all we need on: June 23, 2018, 07:06:04 AM
Actually, it is not very few number of noobs in cryptocurrency business that comprehend the level at which patience is required and important in the business. It may be a cliché, but there is truth behind the line “Patience is the virtue”, especially in business. Running a business is not for the faint of heart, and not for the impatient either. Even if you have a great product or service, great process, and great employees, your business will require you to stay committed for the long-term. I got a few coins couple of weeks back, which I chose to hold while it was plunging however I continue holding with zero dread and just absolute patience. My advice to my colleagues is all you need is buy into coins with good potential like bitcoin and relax even while it’s at dip. Presently, i’m In over 30% profit in all.
But bitcoin is not a business  Huh
well, i don't disapprove your idea of patience is a virtue on hodling cryptocurrency in fact i agree on this, many people earn good fortune couple years back by just buying and holding it for a long time, but comparing it with business which greatly affects by the owner or management intervention with regards to success, i guess not  Cheesy
We should enter into the market with the knowledge of source and processes involve in it so that we may be able to survive in the market. Besides it we need to keep our emotions aside and should perform processes with patience and efficiently.

Some people when invest in normal market or high market and suddenly the value falls then do not have an idea and therefore they get panic and sell coins. Now we should wait with patience for the market to go high.

We all know that all things are possible with patience. We can change the impossible to possible. There is no such things as dream if you have this virtue.

Patience is the key to success in this business. Dealing this business is very hard to do because we need to monitor the value of coins where we can tell if the value you had your  coins is profitable. And the most important thing in this business is be patient and do not panic if the value goes low.
395  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do you think its the right time to sell Bitcoin ? on: June 22, 2018, 10:02:17 PM
hello, if you believe that now the market will fall even more to 3000 dollars for one bitcoin, then yes, it's worth selling now. But do not sell it just because someone said it. The information is not verified, and the market can grow.
Well if you are having this bitcoin and you are stress to be on what you see on its price better to be more practical if you would sell it on that cheap price well youve been loss of it.

I would suggest to wait a little more time before you sell your bitcoin. If you sell it now the value you buy your coin will not meet the price it will become profitable.  Bitcoin is not for short time for long run so don't be afraid because your money will not be lost.Even the price of the bitcoin fluctuates too high or low your money will not affect it.
396  Economy / Economics / Re: Low BTC price is good for Bitcoins at the moment. on: June 22, 2018, 01:38:30 PM
Low price of Bitcoins will attract new people to join the rally, now that a lot more people can afford to buy a ''Full Bitcoin''

It is one of my goals for now, to have a full bitcoin at least one, I am trading and working and investing in order to have those, and then I would celebrate.

Yes it is a good sign for those who want to open an account in BTC. This scenario is grab by investors who want to have lots of bitcoin in order to gain more  profit from the bitcoin they have it. Usually this is the time where some people enter cryptocurrency world due to low value of BTC.

To those people who want to enter the world of bitcoin you better enter now we may never know tomorrow the value will rise again.
397  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What would you do with your winnings? on: June 22, 2018, 01:06:34 PM
Just spend them before it gets too late but most of the people will play again with their winning amount then they will lose it again so it is better to leave gambling once we got enough amount in that and just spend happily that is what I want to do with my winnings.
Basically I will treat my family with the half of my winnings and the other half of it will be segregate for another set of games, because we don't know when our luck ends. So better try again and hopping for another chance of winning.
I think this is the most easiest thing to do when you win a lot of money. Spend it and spoil yourself and enjoy. You shouldn't be there to profit.

Initially i used to spend all of my winning into gambling to earn more and more but now i started saving some of my winning for future use. Usually i save half of my winning and spend other half on trying my luck again.
You are using your money so you should save some for yourself and be disciplined.

As a parent I would save 75% of my price. Why? simply because we may never know if I have the luck again when I enter gambling again. Gambling is just a matter of luck that you faith depends on it.

if ever I will enter gambling I have the big need for money, so If I won I will save it for the future of my kids that sooner or later will be spending a big amount of money such as tuition fees, everyday allowance.
398  Economy / Speculation / Re: What does the future of bitcoin look like?? on: June 22, 2018, 04:31:08 AM
It is totally unpredictable.We can only estimate upto some extent that what will be its value in coming weeks.Saying anything about coming months or years is not possible.But as we can see that number of investors are investing in it so hopefully in coning years it can reach a great height.Many countries are declaring it legal and in many countries still their is some chance that they will ban it in coming years.So saying anything exactly about bitcoin future is not possible.If people keep on investing in bitcoin that surely it will reach a great height.

Yes it is totally unpredictable but there will be always a bright future for cryptocurrency due to a very high demand of bitcoins in the market so keep on holding your coins today because the price will increase even more soon.

Yes I agree with you that it is really unpredictable. No one can predict what will happen in bitcoin. But one thing is for  sure it will be very popular among other coins because at this state the investors can have additional coins that they can hold for a long time and become more profitable in the future.
399  Economy / Economics / Re: Wise thing to do with your savings. on: June 21, 2018, 01:31:32 PM
Of course the answer would highly depend on the ammount of savings that we are talking about, but the wise things to do with that are plenty
The wise thing to do with our savings is to invest it on the best cryptpcurrency and that is bitcoin and we can also invest our savings on some altcoins that have a very low price like investing it on ripple and tron, and it is also better if you will invest on great ico like the deal coin.

I agree with you, if savings will be the issue here the best thing we can do or the wise thing is we can do is invest it to the most popular and in demand coin in the cryptocurrency.

Also you can half it ,invest the half and the other is keep it for emergency. As a mother, I need to keep some money for emergency for my kids.
400  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What Is Your Worst Moment in Gambling? on: June 21, 2018, 12:57:24 PM
I had two encounters:

1) Made up from $450 to $1100 on roulette, then ripped all after a series of losing streaks.

2) Used up my bankroll of $1,000 worth of BTC to cover up a small loss. Ripped all in less than 1 minute on dice.

Gambling is sure hella drug!
Shit that happens man it's honestly really hard to not make such a mistake in such a situation, if you do decide to gamble in the future the best thing to do is have a goal in your mind, most of the time these things happens mainly because we are clueless of what to do when we incur a profit

Well me its not really gambling , its just the same as gambling. Its a real life situation that you need to take risk all you have, if you are aiming for something.

Worst situation is when I give my everything but I lose it all. All my effort, hardworks, money just go for nothing just because on that fucking shit. How I wish I can go back and change the decision that I choose before I lose my everything.
