This year we are going to reach $700 price, i don't really know will this price be stable for two seasons, i think that after halving price will start slowly decreasing.
I think it will not decrease but it will be stable on the last price right alter the halving, and for sure its going to be high compared to current market price.

Bitcoin is really worth right now, and till halving comes better to believe on it. You will make profit for yourself for sure if you will start working with bitcoin.

Yeah, just continue believing it and let's support it until the price of it get's high and high that can benefit each of us. But starting working for bitcoin, needs to
have dedication and effort and also investment into it, without these things you are unable to start up a working opportunity with bitcoin for yourself.
The most essential thing that make the people believe in bitcoins is not just the value of it. The benefits of using it, using bitcoins in online transaction would give us a lot of benefits. Base on my experience, I can transact safely and fast, and the fact the fee is very low or even close to none that is something that other payment system online cannot compete.

Gambling on a long run and making profit is possible indeed and the fact is that you can do it easily and its also very enjoyable.
For the most of us it will not work( a long term) but its worth trying it right ?

Yeah, There are some gambling games that are profitable in the long run if a gambler has a knowledge and strategy. I my self is in the profit side, but on sports betting only. Yes, it's worth trying because you just don't know when is your lucky and unlucky day. Just gamble on what you can afford to lose.
There are maybe some games that can you let make profit on a long run but I only think that poker can maybe help you with this.
I do not think other games can let you achieve this plus every gambling game is still depending on luck.
Poker is only the best game where you can win in the long run, that's already given I think as in skilled base game if you are good you can really make profit and even make this as your profession for a living.

Made some big bet on golden state, hope i won't regret... Lips sealed

For game 1? IMO the Cavs are much more ready and rested, although the Warriors still have their momentum going on from that series win, this could be a winning factor too.

In such instance  gsw might get this because this win because game 1 is at there house and knowing gsw nailed cavs for their last bout,  but it some instance though cavs now is complete and healthy squad and their big three is doing excellent against raptors and i think maybe they do the same to gsw this time and all i can say with this game is very exciting match of all time.
Game 1 is very important for both team because usually it would dictate the tempo of the remaining games, and as warriors they will do anything to protect their home court advantage by winning all games played at home. This game will be a phyiscal game as cavs known for their good defense, this game will go under IMO.
3985  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If you were rich, would you still gamble? on: June 01, 2016, 05:01:55 AM
If i was rich i dont need to gamble, i will focus my self in investing and business.
gamble can ruined your life if you are unlucky in gambling.
Stop gambling start trading!

Exactly if people were rich, they won't involve much in gambling for making cash. For entertainment and feel the winning they might get into it.

No i dont agree because as you can see even rich people dp gambling because same as poor gambler they want to earn big money with it the difference their theyre betting to big noney in gambling and they are prone on lossing big with it, and mostly of them throwing their money in casino and thats very awful thinking they can seek for fun and entertainment their and risking their wealth in this program

again this will only depend on how you look at gambling so it is different from person to person. not everybody is thinking about gambling as a way of making big money. and i think that way of thinking can even be less among rich if they have gotten rich on their own not with daddy's money. because earning it on your own means you won't just throw it away.
it's obvious that rich do not gamble to make money instead they do it to through their excess money in the casino. And by doing it they get some happiness that's priceless. Definitely that gambling is a good thing for the rich as they can afford to do it even regularly but for the poor they have different perception in gambling.

This is another amazing journey for the waves, already  25169.99 invested with less than 7 hours left. This is going to hit to the moon when it is available for the ICO. 7 Hours still a long hours for the sharks to invest, I hope it reaches up to 50,000 BTC and the exchange will be $10. Getting excited to much here.

wow  22850 BTC  Shocked

Some serious FOMO going on. I just decided to double down on my small investment. Hope my transaction gets confirmed in time. BTC blocks near max size lately.

I think this is going to hit at least 50k BTC by the end of the ICO. Am I being unrealistic here guys?

My God my waves keep decreasing, it that amount of BTC would hit what would be my final number then?

Bitcoin is really worth right now, and till halving comes better to believe on it. You will make profit for yourself for sure if you will start working with bitcoin.
Definitely, only those users of bitcoins are the real believer, we believe in it because we are benefited in using it, not just we earn a profit everytime the value increases but by doing a transaction only with an amazing experience of having your transaction fast, secure, transparent and even free or low cost.
3989  Other / Off-topic / Re: Will you quit your day job to go full time on bitcoin? on: June 01, 2016, 01:36:57 AM
I am not gonna quit my dayli job to go full time on bitcoin, not now. Need to be very exerienced to make yourself as full timer with good profit, it's so hard for me.
The decision is always on us, but I would advise to everyone who is in the cryto world to study and focus on this as we the early adopters should take the opportunity to earn by investing or even working here, I can see the future of fully digital adoption among countries and that would simply mean if you are holding a coins now with a small amount in the future its a guaranteed profit due to increase of demands.
3990  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling can be profitable in the long run! It is possible! on: June 01, 2016, 01:30:54 AM
Gambling will be surely profitable on long run. The reason is that when we continuously involve into gambling automatically user gets additional skill on betting and about the various ongoing betting events. Long run gives users the tactics to avoid loss.

This is the common tendency of common gamblers. But actually as long as you play you are playing against the bigger and bigger house edge. So, if you skipped the edge and made profit on first day, your chances of loosing will keep increasing say by day.
Maybe in sports betting there is no house edge, so if you are good in choosing winners you can win in sports betting. If everytime you pick and the odds is over 2.00, even if you are break even in terms of winning and losing record you still win using flat betting.
3991  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If you were rich, would you still gamble? on: June 01, 2016, 01:27:15 AM
Yeah if I would be rich I would gamble more, as being rich you keep on finding different ways of entertainment, and gambling is one of them.

I think rich people are not worried about the outcome from gambling even they win or loose its total fun for them rather then reacting too much.
i totally agree, if i was rich i woudnlt be gambling in hopes of making money or winning. i would do it only for fun. but maybe if im that rich i dont care for money, so the reward from gambling wont be appealing to me anymore so i wouldnt waste time gambling.  Shocked eh wont know for sure until im rich.
i am aware you guys if were rich will spend money to gamble for fun purpose only.

became rich doesn't mean we are not need to earn money through gambling , there a lot of rich man earn money from gambling with bigger bets and bigger return too.
But if you focus on gambling and you are rich you might end up losing all your riches, we know that gambling is very dangerous because we risk our money to earn money and also the feelings involve in gambling is very hard to control, the more you are focus in gambling you become more stressful cause you always think of ways to win in gambling or even think of beating the house.
3992  Economy / Speculation / Re: bitcoin continuous rising? on: June 01, 2016, 01:25:09 AM
I don't think the price will just rise constantly.  We are going to see changes in price up and down like we have in the past and like the stock market changes based on good or bad news and demand.
yeah it is impossible if the prices will always go up?  I think that continues to grow not in terms of price? but in terms of the other? like growing user? the number of users will never be reduced but will always increase? and bitcoin will always evolve and grow. so that growth is not the price. because the price will always be ups and downs

Price will not go up always, maybe today's price movement is due to the hype of halving where people are buying more bitcoins and hold it in preparation of the halving. After the halving and investors got profited already on the price increase will be back to its a  stable price. By saying stable I mean with a little fluctuations.
3993  Other / Off-topic / Re: Do you still believe in bitcoin on: June 01, 2016, 01:13:47 AM
If I receive BTC1 as a reward, then I will hold the BTC until the exchange rate rises to $10,000 per coin. It might take 10 or 20 years.. but I believe that I have the patience with me. And I will just keep the coins in cold storage. That means a strict no-no to the BTC-based investments. I have learnt my lesson after losing my coins earlier on various HYIPs.
Lol it was an impossible thing to happen ? high price is the price that is not unreasonable $10k/btc. how the situation of bitcoin at the time? or the state of the world when it happens? it may occur if the number of bitcoin just below 1000 BTC. and the users covers all over the world. maybe the price it will happen

I beg to disagree, for me that is not impossible because it could happen, but chances are very low or should I say that is an unrealistic projection of the price in the future. I think we should only focus on the more realistic approach, $1,000 could hit this year or at least next year if the value keep increasing.
3994  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2016 Play-Off Discussion on: June 01, 2016, 01:08:56 AM
Well just for an honest opinion i think clay should be recognized and get the finals mvp as what we witness from their game in this series it is clay who carried the team and not curry alone clay steady 3 pointerd would be the deciding factor and edge against the stronger cavs.

bold - hahah dude, the finals didn't even start yet.

The Warriors have a huge advantage that nobody is talking about (yet) - coach(es)

I can't wait to see how the Cavs are going to matchup with the Warriors on the defensive end. Who will guard Klay - Shump, JR Smith? both are too small. James?
I think Shumpert and JR Smith can defend Klay Thompson, and about Stephen Curry just Dellavedova will, dont judge yet who will win the NBA championship because now the CAVS is 100% complete and greedy to aim for the 1st NBA Championship of Team Cavaliers
cavs is a strong and eager to win now after giving a chance to meet back the gsw I just don't want history happen again remember the bulls vs jazz, malone and stocktone was very eager to win the title for the first time in their career but mj did not let them and beat them up in their own home court. wishing good luck for the cavs guys.
No mate,  according to lebron he is the best player in the world, so that alone is already a guarantee that he will win this series. Warriors are very good, no question about that but if cavs is destined to win, this year would be their best chance as they have a healthy squad.
3995  Economy / Economics / Re: How too get rich on: June 01, 2016, 01:00:00 AM
To be rich you have to be smart with Bitcoin and with your own money and you must also not to be greedy otherwise you are going to lose some money and that is bad for you. The best thing that you can do is that you have to know that you must make an investment and safe also some money.
rich from bitcoin is also an option for you dude You can choose different ways to become rich. including of bitcoin? I think you're not enough to be smart to be rich. you should be able to take advantage of all opportunities to earn money as an investment and so forth. yeah and one more do not be greedy

Yes! bitcoin is a good source to become rich and of course you need to understand the risk in investing as the price of bitcoins is not consistently going up. For now this is the best opportunity as the halving is near and the price is steadily going up. Just a simply buy and hold would give you a profit in a short time.

In Primedice  

This is good news for Stunna! LOL and even better for primedice users. With more profit in primedice, more chances that they will run promotions and contest. Can you share your game screenshot? or the roll result. We like to see how it happened.

Good luck on your future bets. I hope your next thread title will be Won 3000 mBTC today Smiley
I doubt he would profit man, its gambling and the fact that you do it in dice you still lose in the long run due to house edge. He might be lucky but he cannot sustain that luck in the long run. Hopefully I am right cause I want you to win but this is gambling, just being realistic here.
3997  Economy / Economics / Re: Let's Be Honest. We Are Waiting for $100/BTC to buy on: May 31, 2016, 01:36:54 AM
LOL..It already reached to $500 today and we still are wasting our time in thinking that bitcoin will fall back to $100, that is impossible for bitcoin to fall that low now.
anything is likely to occur, as today we went to $500. but maybe they would wait so long for $100, and I do not know how long it should be Cheesy
to make a profit does not have to wait $100, so what are we waiting for things uncertain Wink
If it will go back again to $100 with current price is $500 then people would be hesitant to buy as they think that bitcoins is going down and might not go up again, we always react on a situation right after the happening but what we need here is to have a good prediction.
3998  Other / Off-topic / Re: Do you still believe in bitcoin on: May 31, 2016, 01:27:53 AM
There was a time i believed in the bitcoin but for now i am not so sure about it.
He lost so many publicity and not many sites are using the paying method.
For me it's just a dying paying method only used these days for the gamblers.

But i think you should believe in bitcoin, you know most currencies are here in online, but you can't say that you have a one thinking about all currencies, Bitcoin and the others currencies have a lot of different, people more like bitcoin instead of other currencies, so you should believe in bitcoin if you are using.

You are right, but I think its just a matter of time before this will gonna happen more people are already using the bitcoin.
We will see what is gonna happen these days but I think it will attract a lot of people in the future and they will all believe in the bitcoin.

Agreed, its just a matter of time it has not reached to all level yet and it will still take some time to be known by others, so believe in it and the fact is its gonna be best currency in future.
No question about that as we have already prove its benefits using it in online transaction, what makes bitcoin stand out from other currency or payment system is it is transparent and has a low cost transaction fee doing online.
3999  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: May 31, 2016, 01:25:09 AM
Gambling gives you high enjoyment and nerves when you are betting the highest bet compared to your old bets,  but after the enjoyment and when you loss prepare for thier anger.


After losing a big chunk of money, that's when you start to do bets that you can't even afford to lose or even go all in. You want to recover your loss in a single bet. You'll love the thrill. Then if you lose that round, you'll end up having more losses to recover. You'll try to recover your losses but you'll end up having more losses. Until you realize nothing's left in your bank account so you start to sell your stuffs. If this happens to you, then you are now addicted to gambling.
Gambling addicts are addicted more to the thrill than the money. You can try to deny this all you want, but once you've been hooked, you'll continue on no matter your bankroll unless an external force acts on you [oh, first law of motion!]

Let's suppose that you suddenly received a million dollars and you're a gambler. Let's suppose that your goal was to reach a million dollars through gambling. Okay, you're there. But why does it feel unfulfilling? You want more. Greed drives you senselessly, or so you think. The real allure to gambling is the thrill. Without any loss, there is no more intensity.

Essentially, you're addicted to... losing.

LOL, exactly mate, you hit it, we are addicted to gambling because we are always losing and while we are on that position we always come back to bet more to take back our losses and to be on the profit side. Anyway, gambling is really fun so no matter how much we lose as you as we can afford it they it would fine.

yup, to be honest, a lot of regular gamblers already knew they are going to loss but they still keep going because it is part of their lifestyle already. It is their source of entertainment cause they like the thrill and excitement from gambling.
Me too, I always gamble because I cannot take it out in my life, its already part of me and without it I cannot find a good hobby that would give me a real pleasure time while doing it. But mind you, I am a responsible gambler so I am not prone to addiction.

Referring to my portfolio, I think bitcoins is in 50% on if, I don't really earn a lot on my full time job and I have no investment aside from bitcoins, so I would estimate that percentage, but with the total market distribution of bitcoins I am at less than 1%.
