United States 24.4%
China 15.4%

Both above are the two major contributors to World economy. As the trade war has already started the entropy is just going to increase the money is going to be poured globally much much more than ever before. This trade competition will just bring a positive growth in world's economy.


Wow this is actually cool, US is still number one regarding money, so I think that's why they have several space mission. I am just wondering are they still no.1 regarding cryptocurrency holdings? I think when it regards to crypto the no.1 is the China because of the population and almost all of them are investors haha.

Just trading, Because trading is the best way to earn for me, when I am winning on my trades, I will invest the 50% of my trades into bitcoin or bank trust fund. And I think one of the best investment for me is life insurance because you will never know haha, But yeah, trading is my source of investment.

To start with, there is no way to entirely trade crypto without losses but you can limit your losses by trading on reputable exchanges that offer a way to place stop limit scenario when a certain condition is met.
agree to this! There's no way you can't lose on trading, but you can limit it by smart trading strategies, the other one is reading news regarding the coin which you are trading, because the news is the no.1 indicator when the price will go up or down. But most importantly, is the patience of the trader.

Hi everyone, I am a newbie. I find myself with about a btc and I would like to sell, but I don't know what the right moment is .. tips?
If you need it, that is the right moment. Because bitcoin is good for long term holding, so I highly suggest that don't sell your bitcoin if you don't need cash. For me Bitcoin is a long term investment that will give you a lot of profit. Let's hold bitcoin Smiley
And also if you mean't to sell it in terms of trading then just go Smiley but you should keep at least 1 bitcoin for long term investment.

Human intellectual is always better than artificial intellectual because artificial is just a man made product using our own intellect.

When it comes to trading of crypto currency, human being is always the best in developing, so I would not agree on artificial intelligence, because human being connections by means of trading is another thing and has a great effect on our purpose

I can't understand one thing here.
Gambling websites usually promote their sites as best web to visit for gambling and winning. They tell you: Come here and win big but also at the same time they offer investment option and here they say again - invest and profit much. Website profits when users lose money so..
This also at the same time means: Players lose much here, so invest in our bankroll to get huge profit with us.
Can't understand of those casinos..

If you are seeking for profit through gambling, well it's your choice to get into investing since it is not necessary upon registering that you are required to get engage into their investment promo. If you are just into playing to have fun and entertainment, then it will not be an issue then. Actually I found no issue on that manner because it is just their way of advertising what their site services can do for you so they are offering you something they wish you would like and it is up into your choice if you will take it or not. Just what like I did into the online casino I am currently into in which I just tend to enjoy playing their variety of games so I am just up into putting deposits through Bitcoin since it is their main crypto accepted deposit and it grants me an opportunity to receive their welcome reward for doing my first deposit on it.
47  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will an increase in bitcoin price affect the gambling industry on: March 10, 2019, 04:51:58 PM
As we all know the value of bitcoin are down but we are still optimistic about the price bouncing back.
Am new to bitcoin sportbook I just want to ask what would change if bitcoin increases

Yes we all do have an optimistic thoughts about the price of Bitcoin to rise up again within the whole year of 2019 as well as the prices of the other existing cryptocurrency because as we all know, Bitcoin is not the only cryptocurrency being used by gamblers to play gambling because there are already online casinos who uses altcoins as well. Well, in my thought, maybe the gamblers will be encouraged more to go gambling because many people are hesitant to use their Bitcoin because they are saving it for good so it might took an effect in the gambling industry that many people will get to engage into gambling once Bitcoin was back into its high price once again benefiting us all who holds into it. Just like mine, I am not hesitant to use my Bitcoin into playing into the online casino I am currently into because I manage my deposits in terms of Bitcoin since they accept cryptocurrency for deposits to be able to play their variety of games plus have an opportunity to receive their welcome bonus for doing your first deposit on it.
48  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Your first betting? on: March 09, 2019, 09:07:34 AM
Some of us have known gambling since childhood. well, I want to ask you what your first bet is .... if I bet with my friend when playing snake ladder who will be the winner at that time. that's the way make me knowned about gambling.

Well, I do not know that betting in any way around is already considered as gambling way back my childhood because I am just a innocent kid knowing that betting is just a competition game between me and my friends. Well, we used to bet on arcade games wherein the ones who loose will be the one to pay our gaming time and so other games we have played involve child betting game stuffs because it was really fun and entertaining because it encourages both of us to do better with everything. It was just when I get 19 years old when I have known betting is considered a gambling in which money is involve but I certainly do not bet that much high cost of money because I am already contented playing and that's all that matters to me. Which I do really apply whenever I play into the online casino I am currently into playing small bets on the variety of games I play just to be applicable on playing the games I love without minding or aiming to get profit because having fun is an enough payment for me whenever I play plus I do enjoy the privilege they gave me from their welcome bonus just for doing my first deposit.
49  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What causes a person to become intensely addicted to gambling? on: March 09, 2019, 08:38:09 AM
Greediness is one of the reasons people become addicted to gambling. Many people have luck of a beginner in gambling and they think it will always be so and become addicted to it  as they cannot control their emotions.

I agree. Greediness and lack of contentment in an individual's mind makes it a way for addiction. Since they are not able to control their emotions on the way scenarios are happening in front of them, like losing in a game, they tend to chase their loss since they do not accept such failure for them. Greediness on the other hand makes any individual to do such things just to gain or acquire what ever they what in any way that is possible beyond their thinking which mostly are bad things that is why they get into addiction. If you really want to experience playing gambling, you must be able to have that self-control especially on your emotions so that you will not do things you will totally regret. Luck has always its limits on every individual so we must also do have limitations on the way we play to avoid being addicted intensely on gambling. Which I totally do for myself whenever I play into the online casino I am currently into in which I a setting up my mind that I a just playing their variety of games just for the sake of fun and entertainment and winning will be just a bonus to acquire just like what I have experience receiving a great bonus just for doing my first deposit
50  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think you are a gambling expert? on: March 09, 2019, 08:06:46 AM
I just want to know how you feel when you get a big win from the gambling you play, I know that feel is definitely fun.
But, do you feel or ever assume you are a gambling expert after you get a big win?
Then what kind of gambling has made you think of yourself as a gambling expert?

Well, having a big win from gambling is such a privilege because we all do know how difficult it is to win a gambling game but since I am not into gaining profit, I just consider my wins as bonus for having a great time entertaining myself from playing gambling. But even I do win big from it, I still do not consider myself as an expert gambler not just because I am humble, but because I admit I am not really an expert and I guess no one will call them as one because it is hard to be a gambling expert since no one certainly wins consecutively unless you were born really lucky. I am not considering myself as a gambling expert because I am already contented playing into the online casino I am currently into, playing their variety of games as well as enjoying the great welcome bonus they gave me for doing my first deposit on it.
51  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sometimes enough is enough on: March 09, 2019, 07:46:31 AM
If you are a true degenerate, than you are definitely familiar with the concept of “burning out” when it comes to gambling. We’ve all been there before, but for some of us the experiences are much more eye opening than for others. This is a tale about a time where wagered amounts that were way beyond what anyone would consider an “acceptable” gambling budget based on the amount of money I had at the time. Nevertheless, I will begin by telling you that sometimes you are just forced to go to a casino because that’s where your friends just so happen to be meeting up.

This is a story of one of those nights. This is a tale of a complete and utter degenerate gambling night, one in which there was lots of beer, coffee, comp meals, and visits to the ATM involved.

https://degenbet.com/sometimes-enough-is-enough/

You must not get into casino just because of peer pressure because you will just end up defeated any way around. Well, contentment is really the key as well as self-control when you play gambling. Have concern with the money you have in your pocket and do not play beyond your own limits. You have already known that you only have a limited amount in your hand but you insisted to still play having a degenerate attitude forced you to go all out beyond your specified limitation. That is what happen to those who cannot control themselves on spending that much for a game. That id why whenever I do play into the online casino I am currently into, I first set my limitations specially to my budget allotted for playing the variety of games I play on it, and once I am already near my limit, I am already deciding to stop because it makes no sense at all playing up to my limit because it is just like I have already lost in the game and lost all my money a double kill penetration.
52  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: For those thinking some bets are safe, read this on: March 09, 2019, 07:21:42 AM
Please read this
This was a horse racing market, which a total of 249 british pounds layed at odds of 1000/1. That means a total loss of 249,000 (of course it was not a sole bettor but the total of them betting against this horse).
No bet is ever safe.

For the record, those who layed Leicester to win the Premier League back in 2015 felt the pain too. Some wisdom to learn from it  Lips sealed

There is no really such safe bet because in the first place, taking or placing bet in a game is already taking risk whether you will have the privilege to win or not. It is just that lowering your bets will give you a low risk of losing lots of money if you have the self-control not to chase for the bet you have lost. The mistakes usually gamblers do is to take a big bet on a game to have a chance to gain a large feed back but do not really know the higher bets they placed, the higher risk is associated and that will lead to chasing their loss unlike putting small bets just for the sake of fun, low risk and low cost loss no need to chase because you have already give a shot to try. That is what I usually do whenever I play into an online casino wherein I just place small bets for the variety of games they have to play because my aim is just to keep myself entertained and that's all because I just frequently play if I am in the mood or during my vacant time maybe 2-3 times in a week just to still have proper moderation in my game play.
53  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Effects of Gambling on: March 09, 2019, 03:15:38 AM
Gambling Affects your life either in a good or bad way in the long run. Some of those effects that can change your life are:

Good Effects:
*Can make money easily (not guaranteed)
*Gives so much pleasure
*Meeting new friends
*Can increase your assets

Bad Effects:
*Big loss
*Increased on your debt
*Loss jobs
*Depression/Stressed
*Broken Family/Failed on relationship
*Insufficient Funds

Despite of this effects many people are still want to continue gambling, how can you handle this possible effects of gambling in your life?

Actually those effects of gambling were dependent upon the individual playing it because there is nothing wrong on the game, it is the mindset of the player who makes their lives miserable because on the first place, we do have our brains to think of the consequences so the bad effects you have said are depending on the people's choice if he will let himself lead into that path. People do always say that gambling do have bad effects which is true but all of the things in the world do also have bad and good effects which comes out once people make their choices so if you do not want to embed yourself into the bad effects, better secure yourself that you have the self-control and tough mind to play this kind of game. Which I totally remind of myself always that no matter what happen, I will just stick into my aim to have fun and do not seek for profit whenever I play into an online casino I a currently into playing the variety of games they have as well as enjoying their great bonus after doing my first deposit.
54  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What's the strangest or craziest thing you witnessed in a casino? on: March 09, 2019, 02:55:26 AM
Once I was playing the slot machine with my wife when someone that she knew (a distant acquaintance) asked her for $20 cause she ran out of money. My wife gave her $20. Half an hour later, the woman came back, removed her gold chain and tried to sell it for $50 cause she ran out of money again. My wife said no thanks. That was the last time they talked. The woman used to be married and had two sons. Sadly, her gambling addiction caused a strain on her marriage, and resulted in a divorce. Her husband left her and took custody of their children. The woman's gambling got so bad that she ended up working as a prostitute for a while.

What's the strangest or craziest thing you witnessed in a casino?



I haven't experience something strange like what you have experience whenever I get into a casino. Imagine, your wife acts like a withdrawal machine or a pawning shop for her friend just to be able to play into the casino. That was already a desperate move ever done by a player to even sold her gold chain for $50 just to continue playing. This only shows how people are getting addicted into playing casino games without minding how much they have already spend just for playing. There is nothing wrong in playing in a casino as long as you know your limits because once you have exceeded your limitation you are already heading to addiction. Knowing that she is doing everything to have a source of money to feed her addiction on playing casino is already awful to think seriously. That is why self-control is a real must have if you were trying to get involved in playing into casino. Which I totally do whenever I get to play into an online casino I am currently up to playing the variety of games they have with the objective in mind that I am playing for fun and with proper moderation plus I can also enjoy their great bonus for just doing my first deposit.
55  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I lost 30,000 on superbowl. on: March 09, 2019, 01:54:54 AM
This sucks, $30,000 lost because I bet on the rams. UGH

I know its not much but still sucks the rams offense is so shit, only scored 3 points, un fucking believable.

$30,000 was already a large amount of money for me that I can't even imagine losing up something like that because I can already buy all my needs with those amount you have just spend for a bet. But it seems you are not regretting that much for your lost maybe you are a rich man to spend that amount of money for a bet. You are playing with no control and not thinking of how much money you have already lost. Even I do have a lot of money like you, I will really spend that much for a game because its ridiculous. That is why whenever I am playing into the online casino i am currently into, I only place on small bets just to enjoy myself playing with the variety of games they have because spending lot of money is not already good for a game because its a waste of resources since there is always a big possibility of lost that wins.
56  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How gambling sites can cheat you on: March 09, 2019, 01:29:35 AM
Thing you need to know about probably fair websites

1> you control your part of secret
2> website has its know secure text, you get hash for it, so it ensure that there can not be any alteration to the server secret

so a bet roll is generated using 1 & 2, which ensures there is no cheat.


Now consider this

1> your account is hosted on there website, all it takes is 1 command to database to delete your whole account and you will not prove anything.

suppose a user deposited 10 BTC, the website can simply delete his account and claim its never been created, so what use are your secrets hash.

2> or they can alter your password and claim its been hacked and its your responsibility

[ remember : password is saved as hash in the database, so they cannot know your password but they can definitely change it , and claim its been hacked]


FOR NOW THE ONLY SOLUTION SEEMS TO ME IS TO USE , A SMART ETHEREUM CONTACT OR USE BITCOIN ON-CHAIN BETTING.

I guess not all gambling sites are like what you have said. Maybe what you were saying can be illegitimate gambling sites that maybe promising for the crowd to attract players to have big deposits and run out after getting it. But there are legitimate sites who possess legit services for us gamblers that will take shoulder of the responsibilities with our money in terms of fiat or even crypto. That is why before getting attached into a certain site, we better make sure its legitimacy so that we will not be fooled by those gambling sites and better not to do such big deposits because the presence of money do really triggers greed beneath our souls. That is why I just do small deposits only into the online casino I am currently into to ensure my money but I do trust and believe on their credibility that my money is safe. It is just that I just want to deposit amounts that I will just use for playing their variety of games and as well enjoy their great bonus for doing my first deposit. Not all gambling sites are cheaters because there are still sites that is truthful to their promise so better be good on choosing your site.
57  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you gamble only with Bitcoin and do you have other favorite alt-coin? on: March 09, 2019, 01:00:13 AM
Hello,
Many sites are now starting to accept more and more different crypto currencies, for example Luckygames now accepts 101 coin and all of them seems to be active.
My favorite is still Bitcoin and Doge.
Whats your favorite coin that you use for online gambling and if it is not accepted would you convert it to Bitcon to try and play online gambling games?

Well, on mine, I only stick into Bitcoin because I do not have that much crypto coins to hold and the other holdings I have are just into small amount which might be not enough for placing bets on an online gambling site. But if I will have a privilege to convert those coins I have for Bitcoin, I would really love to do it so I can enjoy playing gambling. But I a not really into playing always, just at times whenever I need to entertain myself so I am just playing with the lower limit bets just to be able to play and have fun since I am not that typical gambler who aims for profit on playing gambling. Currently, I am up into an online casino that accepts Bitcoin deposits that is why I really love to use only Bitcoin for playing the variety of games they have plus the privilege to receive their welcome bonus just for doing my first deposit on it.
58  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Gambling addiction a disease? on: March 08, 2019, 02:09:17 AM
I am not really a gambler but I heard about people who can't quit it and keep losing lots of money. Do you think the attitude to gambling addiction should be the same as to drug addiction?
Should the government forbid gambling and treat somehow those who are addicted?
Or maybe it should be left up to an adult? I mean, should people decide on their own whether they need to gamble or not.
What do you think?

Somehow. Gambling addiction can be like drug addiction in terms they are being addicted into something wherein they can't control themselves on using it. But on the other hand they are far away from each other because gambling is not really addictive for me, because the attitude and behavior of the people playing gambling makes them addicted while drug addiction is really addictive because there are certain chemicals in the drugs making it addictive once used. Banning gambling will not make sense anymore because there are lots of gambling sites all over the world so gamblers will just transfer into other place where there is legality of gambling and it will just turn out you are putting all gamblers in one space and it does not resolve the problem. Well, it must be left on the adults understanding and let them decide for their own journey but the least we can do is to guide them to somehow help the realize what they are doing. That is why whenever I play into an online casino I am currently into, I fully decide that my aim is purely to have fun. No chasing of lost because I only play the variety of games they have with low bets as well enjoying their welcome bonus after doing my first deposit on it.
59  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A cryptocurrency entirely dedicated to GAMBLING? on: March 08, 2019, 01:41:54 AM
An idea came onto my mind, and it consists about a currency that is entirely dedicated onto gambling and also betting, I did not search through the web if there is actually a crypto that has done this. Gambling is a thing that the people love to do, whether if it is in the casino or online, but have you ever thought of a crypto that will serve as your main currency whether if it is in the casino or it is on online, I think this could also be beneficial for the gamblers as well, I wanna know about what you think of my idea, whether if it is a positive or negative opinion, I will still take it.

Well, that is a great idea if cryptocurrency have no capacity and capability to be used for online gambling but since all cryptocurrency can be used depending on the casino or gambling site you wish play, the idea of your makes no sense anymore. Although you have a great idea in mind, but the existence of cryptocurrency do already cater like almost anything in the range of internet so there is no need for the creation of a crypto designated only for gambling because all cryptos can already be used as we desire to use it in any purpose. It will just be added into the thousands of existing crypto coin in the market if ever. Just like the online casino I am currently into, wherein Bitcoin is the cryptocurrency accepted for transactions like deposit, so I do not need anymore a crypto designated for gambling because Bitcoin can already give me access to the variety of games I enjoy plus have the opportunity to receive their welcome bonus for doing my first deposit in terms of Bitcoin.
60  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: People who gamble are degenerates, change my mind. on: March 08, 2019, 01:19:49 AM
I know my statement may sound pretty hostile on this part of the board, though I'm not talking about the person who will buy a superbowl box or makes a friendly bet with someone over one big game. I think the degenerates are the people sitting around gambling on every game they can possibly gamble on.

I have friends like this, people that will gamble on Mexican Womens Tennis if they can win (or most likely lose) some money on the game. It's a crushing addicition that we've normalized in our culture to make it seem like it's just apart of life. It shouldn't be, and children at a young age should be stopped from gambling until they know the horrible outcomes that gambling can cause. I support every effort by regulators to stem out the bad actors in the gambling field in order to stop children from being hooked on this.

I'd like one of you to change my mind, or at least make me think different about gambling. Because as of right now, I have a pretty negative view on it.

Gambling is not really the one who must be blamed in the series of addiction stories because gambling is just a game we can play. Now, addiction is the result created from the behaviors of the people who play gambling because they tend to treat gambling as a part of their life which is the bad thing. Actually gambling is fun and entertaining if you know how to play with it in proper moderation because once you have changed your mind especially with the aim why you are playing gambling, now that will cause the addiction. But if you have a tough mind that you can play gambling without getting addicted on it because you just tend to play for fun and enjoyment, now you do not have to worry about it. You have the choice within you if you will be going into moderation or the other way around because there is no bad thing in gambling, it is the people who plays it that makes the game bad. That is why whenever I play into an online casino I am currently into, I always keep in mind that I am playing for the sake of enjoying the variety of games they have even at smaller bet games to keep me out of addiction plus I can enjoy the great bonus I have received for doing my first deposit on it.
