Yes, people want more control over their own money. Everything we need to execute transactions is internet access. No more big bank agencies full of people waiting hours to make a transaction, no more limited unprofitable investments which the government and the bank eat the biggest part of it. A Crypto-Currency decentralized world can give the little fishes the same advantages the big ones have in a centralized world.

I don't think it's going to be the only option, because the traditional casinos play a big role on the industry, especially the land based casinos, and their customers aren't worried about implementing Blockchain technology. Blockchain would become a must only if an overwhelming majority of gamblers ask for that, impacting the profits of traditional casinos, forcing them to make changes.
Anyway decentralized casinos aren't a guarantee of anything for many people. It's common to see people here saying even Crypto casinos with provably fair system cheat the players.

After a spiked growth there is always a high fall, so it's more negative than positive for Bitcoin on long term, creating an eternal cycle of instability, panic, fear and uncertain adoption. Good for speculation and fast profits, but bad for solid adoption as currency used on the daily life and the development of new projects (as there will be less investors putting their money in volatile scenarios).

Why are Crypto-Currencies over and Bitcoin won't recover anymore? We are facing a crisis in Crypto market, but there is still hope and it's very probable it's a temporary phase, like all the others we have seen so far in this Crypto experience. It goes up, what doesn't mean it will skyrocket to the moon and it goes down, what doesn't mean Bitcoin is going to die. However I admit there is a little chance you could be right (everything is possible), but I really hope you are wrong.

Do I loot enemies automatically? Because I have killed some butterflies and frogs and didn't get anything.
And is there a limit we can fight? I just see HP and MP bars and they don't decrease as I fight.
You must loot creatures manually. Butterflies and frogs are the weakest creatures in the game and will therefor not drop much that's valuable. Please reply with your character name so I can properly credit you the 5 silver coins. Thanks for your interest in the game. Character name: Aromir I think I got a loot now from Maggot creature, 2 copper coins. Seems I need to buy a sword to deal more damage.  But I spent all my money with leather armor and helmet. I hope I can finish my set with the 5 silver coins reward. |

As Bitcoin pushes the market up, that is the coin to choose. You can buy some AltCoins and the effect won't be the same of buying Bitcoins, if you want to help the market recover its strength. I think the most certain investment now among all the Crypto-Currencies is Bitcoin, among all currencies, it's still the most reputable and influent one. However, the scenario is cloudy yet, not possible to know for how long this "Black Friday" will continue.
I don't expect a fast growth of the market anyway, because it would lead to another unstable scenario... Better to grow slowly and solid.

Why shouldn't there be a constitution? The constitution just must be writen by citizens as it has been done in Iceland.
And you talk about a big syndicate aiming at their own interests, but that would be only if you manage to find a large enough amount of people who share the same interests.
What you mean here is that majority would rull over minority right?
The constitution may not reflect the wishes of the citizens during a period of time (for an example: We created it today with majority's agreement, but in 30 years, most people don't agree with this anymore), so will the communists citizens accept to keep following it? It's contradictory with the "communist direct democracy" idea... You're right. The constitution might guarantee certain rights and we can change the idea of majority by saying for example laws can pass only if 60% of the population agrees but eventually, you reach a point where you say "hey, 80% of us agree on this so let's do this". But I don't see any way to have a system where a group manages itself without deciding that majority rules minority. It's teh very base of group interactions. Unless you see something else possible?
Majority rules almost everything. They can't, for an example, come to my house and send me out because it's going to become a factory, state's building or something like this. In a communist (even the perfect one) it could happen, and I wouldn't have who to appeal. Communists don't respect the individual, because everything that matters for them is the whole collective. If most people want, that is what must be done, even if it involves taking most profits/production, properties from the citizens and forcing them to work where they don't want. Yes, changes are needed, 5 years is too much to accept quietly, especially if the political said one thing during the campaign and did the opposite or nothing after elected. I just don't think changes should be so extreme...
Well that's understandable cause that would be some crazy changes. I don't see any mild solution but if you do feel free to tell Replacing the represetants and pressing them to make their job correctly. If it doesn't work in a country, the problem aren't exclusively the politicians, but the people in general... I really think people would change their state of mind if they knew they had actual power. Today people don't give a shit because they know politicians are just lying and nothing can be done.
If you tell them "ok now you make the laws and the constitution, no more representants you're going to decide yourself" they will be scared of course, but also happy to have control over their own destiny. And I think they'll really get more and more involved in politics.
I think power isn't for anyone... Everyone changes their state of mind with power, but some for the worse. Monarchy, democracy, tyranny, oligarchy, communism... Everything could work, depending the people involved on these systems. In the end the problem are the people and not the systems themselves... That is why there are always positive examples about everything involving nordic countries, but when you apply the nordic politics in third world countries there isn't any guarantee they will work too, because the people. |

Invest more of your money and you will be survive because once market recover you will earn more.
Easy to say, but can you predict when it will happen? Still it is very possible that it is not the end of bear market. Price of Bitcoin still have long way to $1. I'm not saying that BTC price will ever drop to $1, but if was possible $20000 why not go down to $1000? Everything is possible in a volatile market like this, and because this unpredictable scenario none of the options the author's post offers is enough to guarantee our survival. We can't rely our survival in holding, investing, mining or trading Crypto-Currency, it's too risky, being impossible to have a stable life this way. Crypto-Currency is a very welcome source of income, but it shouldn't be the primary one. Anyway, although it's possible for BTC to hit $1000, even the most pessimistic predictions say it's unlikely for now. |

What will save Bitcoin is the continuity of the work that has been done so far. I think there is nothing to change about it, slowly more people learn about Crypto-Currency, develop more projects related to it, adoption and propaganda increases in different sectors. Meanwhile speculators make their profit, play with the markert, but the solid work is being done on the backstage, and this work's results is the prosperity of Crypto-Currency, on long term.

Do you really think only in capitalism 1% manages the rest of 99%?
It's not a perfect world, but I would be happy for being a free peasant instead of a slave.

To sell can be a good idea, as it will guarantee you a chance to buy more BTCs later for a cheaper price, but at this time I chose to just hold and wait. Meanwhile we can observe the market closely, trying to predict the right time the scenario will change and the price will start rising solid again. When this happens it's the propitious time to buy more coins, as we will definitely help to pump Bitcoin's price on the Crypto market.

I have never regretted on getting into bitcoin but I definitely regret of not getting a major portion out of it when it mooned to 20k$  but hey we are here for long term and bitcoin will do just great in the coming time. Yes, that is my regret too, I should have invested more in BTC, however now I'm not sure yet if it's a good time to buy again. Some people have their reasons to regret about their investment in Bitcoin because the currently scenario in the market of Crypto-Currencies, it's understandable, but I hope you are right and that Bitcoin's story is just on its beginning, and those who are regretting about their investments now can change their minds in the future. |

Communism alone leads to dictatorship anyway...
How coul communism in a direct democracy lead to dictatorship? I really don't see how it's possible would you mind enlightening me here? Let's say there isn't state, each person has the same rights, everyone is "equal" (I really don't believe in equality, as it smashes the individuality). Then I suppose there won't be any constitution, because who will rule the country are the citizens directly, right? What they want is the law. So the majority starts going against others unfairly, creating a big syndicate that will rule (dictatorship) aiming their own interests. There won't be any laws to protect anyone, as what matters are the majority wishes. After this point, a civil war may happen. This majority can also create big economical issues, as there is a chance they won't know what they will be doing. Not everyone is interested in politics to rule the country they live, and many of the citizens don't have enough knowledge to say how things must be done in several sectors (economy, security, health, education, etc...), so it's normal to have representants, that have a similar opinion to the voters, but that are better prepared to work for the country, on the front.
There are many people who just want to work daily, earn money and buy stuff to thrive in life, they don't care about politics, ideologies, they just want to live in a confortable society, with the highest quality as possible. And if the person doesn't care about political choices, he/she won't have any idea about it, so it's better he/she won't have any power... Otherwise it can be a disaster.
Three main ideas you have here: -First, politicians are more capable that the averag Joe that's why it's good they make the decision. I think you're extremely wrong here, I don't know how it's done in your country but in mine one guy can be minister of education one day (without having even worked in this sector before) then minister of the environment another day (without having worked or studied in this sector before). Most of our politicians are DEEPLY incapable. Maybe your country managed to assure your leaders have some skills if show I'd love to hear how they're doing this! Politicians should be more capable than the average Joe to get that position (probably the average Joe should be more capable to choose the right politician too). It's true in many countries it doesn't work well, here there was a preacher as Science and Technology minister. Nothing against preachers, but in this case the guy didn't know anything about science or technology... At least here now there is a promise it will change, I hope so. I'm not a big fan of these studies, they are very convenient when they want. It may vary depending on how you interpret them. Maybe a law that benefits the wealthy people, benefits average people too. Especially taking in consideration investments wealthy people make on the countries, what is advantageous even for the miserable ones. But if a representant isn't being coherent with his initial proposals, there are many others on the competition, waiting for a chance. With social medias the pression over them is much bigger nowadays. -Third, people need representants because they don't have time or knowledge or the will to take the matters in their own hands. Well I'd say that's a huge problem because a citizen who doesn't care about politics is not a citizen. I mean it in no offensive way, citizen means duties, the first of these duties being taking part of the city and the country life. If you don't want to care about politics no problem, but that means you're just an inhabitants of the country, not a citizen. So you shouldn't vote at all. Problem being that today, as people vote only every 3 to 5 years, people who don't care AT ALL about politics have as much weigth in political decisions as people actually caring.
That is true, that is how Democracy is fail, not a perfect system, but at least there are some guarantees that respect our individuality against a possible majority's abuse. And even if it was the Communism you say, these people would continue apathetic towards the politics, with the difference it would be a hostile unstable system. The same is said about Democracy, all of us have an equal share of power, and actually that doesn't guarantee benefits. If there are 100 corruptible politicians it's because a big parcel of those 50 millions voted for them, so they are somehow in agreement with those practices.
In other words, if the biggest part of the population is corrupt, illiterate, alienated the whole country will suffer, because they are the majority. And the few guys who could raise the country will be smashed because the minority's opinion doesn't matter.
From this perspective, the Communist system you say is similar to the Democracy we have, with the difference there wouldn't be representants. So instead of electing corrupt politicians, the corrupt people would be acting directly, messing everything around...
You're completely right here! They are indeed responsible at least in part for the corrupt politicians. But why? Well again I don't know where you're from but in my country, it's not a democracy. We call it a democracy because we're used to calling it that way, but that's more an elective monarchy. You elect a king and then you can't do ANYTHING for 5 years as he has all the power and accounts to no one. Yes, changes are needed, 5 years is too much to accept quietly, especially if the political said one thing during the campaign and did the opposite or nothing after elected. I just don't think changes should be so extreme... People are powerless. Hence they're no longer involved in political life. To give you an example, our previous president was elected by only 40% of the population, the 60% either didn't vote for him, or didn't vote at all. Why should they even vote? Whatever politicians say there is no way they'll be true to their words.
Between the two options, none was good for them, however their candidates weren't enough to please the majority too, otherwise they would be on the final round of the elections... The stronger group wins, with or without majority. It's really hard to find a candidate who is able to get votes from most people of a country. I think if a politician lies new polls should be summoned. We have choice but without responsability. We have vote but we have no power. We're not complete hence we're not trying to become real citizens. We're just a small part of a big machine working without us...
Yes, because the ones who just press the buttons on the election's day and doesn't care anymore. Some people don't even know the difference between a president and a mayor... Again, it's not a perfect system, changes are constantly needed, but always preserving the conquests we made so far. |

You already have the answer: Communism leads to dictatorship (the worse kind of dictatorship). So why to insist on this idea?
That's the point I'm trying to make: Communism + representative government leads to dictatorship. Not Communism alone I believe Communism alone leads to dictatorship anyway... We need clear rules to live harmoniously in society, and in a communist state it's not possible, everything is questionable and dubious, at same time everything belongs to the people, nothing belong to them, it's a total mess.
There will be always a group of people deciding how things will work for most people. A forced equality that communists promises will never work because people aren't equal, each one has his own individuality and many of them don't even want to decide anything, but to trust someone to do this for them (a government, politicals). The same way many people don't want to be bosses, but employees and there isn't any problem with that.
Communism goes against how the life naturally is.
Isn't there? I mean it means handing out the power to somebody to rule over you... Isn't that the worst you can do as a human being? Not everyone is interested in politics to rule the country they live, and many of the citizens don't have enough knowledge to say how things must be done in several sectors (economy, security, health, education, etc...), so it's normal to have representants, that have a similar opinion to the voters, but that are better prepared to work for the country, on the front. There are many people who just want to work daily, earn money and buy stuff to thrive in life, they don't care about politics, ideologies, they just want to live in a confortable society, with the highest quality as possible. And if the person doesn't care about political choices, he/she won't have any idea about it, so it's better he/she won't have any power... Otherwise it can be a disaster. Now picture this: a country in which laws and constitution are proposed and voted by the people and not by a government. It means we all have an equal share of power and we don't have to hand it over to someone. Now that would be a communist country that might work because there would be no one to abuse the system. You can corrupt 100 politicians but you can't corrupt 50 millions people The same is said about Democracy, all of us have an equal share of power, and actually that doesn't guarantee benefits. If there are 100 corruptible politicians it's because a big parcel of those 50 millions voted for them, so they are somehow in agreement with those practices. In other words, if the biggest part of the population is corrupt, illiterate, alienated the whole country will suffer, because they are the majority. And the few guys who could raise the country will be smashed because the minority's opinion doesn't matter.

Probably a bad time for a conclusive idea about Bitcoin. If you lost $10.000 with Crypto you believed it at some point, and because the loss you are angry now. Of course there is speculation, the guys on the top make much more profit than everyone else and there isn't many investments coming in for now, but these are not reasons to see BTC as a dead currency. Remember that Bitcoin rules the market, and not some "stable" AltCoins.

If they had created Crypto-Currency, they would have created it in a centralized way already, no? Why would they create an issue (decentralization) to be solved by them later? Seems desnecessary work. If Bitcoin has not been killed by regulations, manipulations, and propagandas it is thanks to the enthusiasts who support it and think outside the default system. Maybe the same people who are defeating the old default system members on several countries in the world, choosing new style of governments.

Martingale actually works but not on roulettes because roulettes are totally random . ive tried martingale method on hi ' lo gmes and dice games , i did manage to win several times when compared of playing randomly . though there are also times that martingale method wont work , maybe because the gambling site are already detected the strategy that ive been using .
It can work on roulette if you play red/black because there's equal number of black and red squares on the wheel. Martingale works great with game that only have 2 viable options like heads or tails. It doesn't work on games driven by algorithms that calculate odds for many players at the same time, so you can't successfully use it in online dice. A few wins don't prove anything. Some people get lucky and it has nothing to do with their strategy. To know if it's the strategy you need enough rolls. Don't forget the "zero". It's neither black nor red, but green. On long term the house will have this little advantage over the gambler. Independent if it's Roulette or Dice, on the practice they are very similar. |

They are relatively satisfied with their currently life and they don't see Bitcoin as a differential on their life. Probably you are right, sometimes we have to create an issue to sell the antipoison, it always work... But the point is, Bitcoin came to make things easier and simpler, so it's a bit contradictory to create a problem to sell Bitcoin as the solution. What we can do is to keep trying to convince these people with arguments, finding what things they are interested in, and pointing how Bitcoin can be useful on that field.

Cryptocurrency transactions has been on the rise in the philippines.
They are already accepted 5 cryptocurrency company in the country and approximately planning to give license for atleast 25 companies to operate in the philippines.
With the current government administration they are starting to adopt and build even in the technological infrastructure.
In more years to come the country will be more open to blockchain technology like japan and other countries.
It's a nice thing to know that Philippines now are becoming more open into Bitcoin and crypto currency business. Also this is a good news to all crypto enthusiast who lived in the country. Moreover, some of the banks in this country are now doing the adoption of cryptocurrency like Unionbank and PNB also are planning to do the same thing for what the unionbank did. I think many people in the Philippines are already immersed in the cryptocurrency market, since part of their culture is to always find ways to earn to support themselves and their families, especially through online means. The beauty with cryptocurrency is that it's not that difficult to learn if you really are serious about it, and also, you can find that it can be a viable source of income whilst doing it as a part-time job of some sort. There have been news before that the Philippine Central Bank are getting wearing of cryptocurrency investments, so it's really a good thing to see that, in general, cryptocurrencies are gaining traction in the Philippines. A good demonstration that not only first world countries can lead Crypto adoption. Philippines has a strong presence in Crypto-Currency world since years ago and seems they are really serious about it. Now let's hope the adoption from the government side will be smoother as possible, without heavy regulations and exigencies over the citizens, so everyone can benefit from this achievement. |
