$66k was $1.2 TRillion USD Capitilization larger than any USA corporation, bigger than most military budgets on earth

To go to $100k or higher would be bigger than the USA GDP, do you have any idea where this money is going to come from?


Don't talk nonsense. You don't understand how market capitalization works.

If we are already talking about some of the top companies, here are some facts:
Apple (AAPL)
  Market cap: $2.093 T (ATH at $2.4 T)
Microsoft (MSFT)
  Market cap: $1.847 T (ATH at $1.97 T)
Amazon (AMZN)
  Market cap: $1.615 T (ATH at $1.75 T)
Google (GOOG)
  Market cap: $1.554 T

Besides, have you ever heard of Gold market cap? Do you have any idea where that money comes from?

A, onda OK. Znam da se Ledger wallet može otvoriti i s drugim softverom ako znaš seed phrase. Ali za ostale wallete sam nekako shvatio da svaki koristi neki svoj standard.

Svi walleti koji koriste BIP standard se mogu otvoriti i s drugim softverom (npr. electrum). Electrum ima opciju ručnog upisivanja derivation path-a prilikom importiranja seed fraze. Zato je preporučeno u backup arhivu zapisati i derivation path, zajedno sa seed frazom.

Da, potrebno je informiranje prije kupovine. Ja bih osobno izbjegavao novčanike koji koriste nestandardne ili nedokumentirane načine generiranja ključeva isto kao što bih izbjegavao novčanike koji ne koriste softver otvorenog koda.

Fatunad said "20 or 30x losing streak". In this case, losing streaks refers to the martingale strategy with almost 50% chance of winning.

Yep, my bad. But whatever, this doesn't change too much. 30x losing streak will empty your pocket as well as 1000x . Especially if we are talking about martingale, where mathematically we have a sum of geometric progression, with "q" as 2. If we starts from 1 dollar, 30x lost strikes will result in 1073741823 dollars lost. Nice?

So this doesn't make sense to talk about "oh, i will lose 30 bets and when with 50 % prob will get my money back"

Yes, I totally agree. Hence the title of this topic: "Why the martingale system sucks!"  Wink

 1: How Is Bitcoin Value Calculated?
Bitcoin's value is largely dependent on its supply and the market's demand for it. Its value is also attributed to other factors, such as alternative digital currencies—including their supply and price—availability, and rewards for mining. Intrinsic value can also be estimated by computing the average marginal cost of production of a bitcoin at any given point in time, based on the block reward, price of electricity, energy efficiency of mining hardware, and the mining difficulty.

Yes, this is not a big win like Bitinity, but at least I got half of the max payout (:

Nevertheless, this is a nice hit. Congrats!
Unfortunately, I have never had such luck on slots. I don't know, maybe I'm doing something wrong...

Sad ću možda zvučati kao njubara, ali rade li svi ti hardware walleti s istim seed phraseom? Hoću reći, može li netko tko je crypto imao primjerice na KeyWallet Classic ubaciti seed phrase u Ledger Nano S i doći do crypta? Jer ako ne može, onda je to problem.

Točno je što je casperBGD naveo. Nisu svi hardverski novčanici kompatibilni po pitanju seed fraze isto kao što nisu niti svi softverski novčanici kompatibilni. Mislim da je razlika u tome na koji način i po kojoj 'formuli' izvode privatni/javni par ključeva iz seed fraze.

Even if you do make use of Dogecoin and having a base bet of 10 or whatever the minimum then i do believe that even hitting 20 or 30x losing streak would blown out your account.

To hit x20-x30 you need to bet with probability of winning, i suppose, like 0.1 %. With such prob you will run out of your money much faster than will hit jackpot. Sad but true.  

Clearly that's not what he meant.
Fatunad said "20 or 30x losing streak". In this case, losing streaks refers to the martingale strategy with about 50% chance of winning (or x2 multiplier).

    Social distancing should not lead to social isolation, so talk to your friends and peers and discuss your gambling problem with them. Having support can make a big difference. [/li][/list]
    While this is completely correct at the same time it is very difficult to implement for someone that is on the verge of getting addicted to gambling, your loved ones are the best support system that you can possibly have however when people lose so much money they get embarrassed and instead of telling their family members they hide it so they fail to receive their support as externally there does not seem to be any problem unlike what happens with alcoholics and drug addicts, so this creates an scenario where they want to gamble even more as they want to recover their money with nefarious results.

    I see what you mean. Unfortunately, the lack of support from loved ones can result in the worst consequences in cases of gambling addiction. They eventually end up destitute and homeless. Destitution is the common story for many gambling addicts as there is no sense of dignity or pride left in them. In a nut shell, they get an addiction because they lack something in their lives and what do they do when they are without money and jobs and when the addiction consumes them, they get helplessness and they lose their life!
    4112  Other / Meta / Re: User banned - Possibly misunderstanding the idea of a regular social bounty on: May 21, 2021, 07:38:42 PM
    Having read all the comments carefully, I have to admit that I do not entirely agree with the moderator's decision here.
    As the member initially intended to pay the bounty with bitcoin, it is evident that he had no intention of violating the forum rules. Upon other members' recommendation, he agreed to pay smaller portions in altcoin.
    Okay, maybe that wasn't the best decision, but does it really deserve such a harsh punishment? In the spirit of this forum, wouldn't it be better to alert the member that his actions are inconsistent with the rules and that he should go back to the original terms of the bounty campaign?

    I agree that rules should be followed, but even theymos don't support a strict adherence to them.

    I actively disbelieve in the idea of a "rule of law" where hard rules exist and are strictly applied across the board as if we're all robots. Every case should be considered individually in the context of the forum's mission.

    What do you think the mission of this forum is? I would really like to hear what other members think.

    4114  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin can not crash on: May 21, 2021, 03:29:45 PM
    From what i have notice people are planning to crash cryptocurrency and if Bitcoin crash what is the benefit of people who is against the development of digital currency, it astonished me that a man called Elon musk is fighting cryptocurrency for no relevant reasons, is that government is using Elon to remove crypto in line of currencies?

    I'm afraid of the way all the crypto is reducing in price, now that i join digital cryptocurrency fully with my family and sale some of my properties to invest into crypto, it's when Elon musk will bring scandal into cryptocurrency.


    If you have followed Bitcoin from the start it has always had huge up and down swings no matter what anybody says, including Elon   Its nothing new with crypto It will go down and people will buy and then will go up again ..it allways has ..
    true, this happened so many times, people will sell and take profit from their investments at some point, and if those people had a big amount it could easily affect the price of bitcoin and make it go down, and others who didn't have a chance would find it as an opportunity to buy at a low price, and it would go back up.
    That is what happens to the crypto market. The price will go down and up again, but unfortunately, we do not know how high or low the price will go and only predicting the price. This time, the bitcoin price crash to a lower price and many people worry about seeing if the price is getting down for more while the others are ready to buy more bitcoin. But it will recover soon and the price will start to rise and who knows, the next thing that we will see is another rally to break the $64k and still increase. So be patient and still try to have more bitcoin.

    Yes, it is a volatile investment. It's a very risky investment. We know that anything can happen at any time. But we also know that Bitcoin is the fastest growing and best performing investment in history. We need to focus on this. We know that it has a digital scarcity value that you cannot easily imitate. And then, we also know that, at the end of the day, it's going to be very difficult to ban Bitcoin or ban cryptocurrencies entirely.

    This is a great opportunity to get involved, as I'm not sure it's going to last forever.

    Yep, there is a lot of plagiarism in the white paper, and I think this is a clear indicator that this project is just another quick cash grab scheme. It seems scammers are running out of new ideas to scam.

    Hopefully nobody buys into this since it is destined to fail since the very beginning.

    The question that may need to be answered, why do we not have the option to delete KYC document if we no longer use a gambling site?

    You raise an excellent question. My understanding is that, in accordance with the GDPR, every user should have the right to delete personal data from any platform that requires KYC.
    I'm not sure if it's the same with Roobet as well since I haven't checked. Could someone please confirm whether this is possible within the account settings or if customer support is required in such a case.
    4117  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League Discussion Thread on: May 21, 2021, 01:05:27 PM
    This season Villarreal has played extremely well in Europe, so I feel that the bookmakers have underrated them somewhat by giving them odds between 4.5 and 5 to win. The quality of Manchester United's players puts them in a competitive advantage, but Villarreal's record in Europa League this season is impressive, with 12 wins and two draws from 14 games. In contrast, the Red Devils have struggled in defense in recent games. They obviously had problems without their captain.
    It will be an interesting day on May 26. A number of factors point to a very exciting final, much more exciting than the odds suggest.

    But United will get their captain back and we have to be fair to them, they had tougher opponents than Villareal (also not to mean disrespect to anyone). I will not even mention what happened to my Spurs team here who just completely blew their chances at a "weak" team of Dinamo Zagreb. But yes, 5x for Villa is a really nice odds to hit.

    In top leagues like UEFA Europa League there are rarely weak teams, but I see your point. Btw, have you noticed how often an underdog has an advantage due to being underestimated by the opponent? Probably that's exactly what happened to Tottenham.
    4118  Economy / Speculation / Re: What goes up must come down on: May 21, 2021, 12:27:24 PM
    ... Also bitcoin is clearly a failed experiment that uses too much energy, just like Elon said. And now everyone knows it and nobody wants it. USD is better and safer.

    A failed experiment? Let's see:

    This is clearly as high as bitcoin will ever get, basically. Maybe just a little bit higher because there are people who haven't realized this is a failed experiment, but that's it. 1 bitcoin will absolutely never be worth $50k. $100k? LOL, no.

    Looks like you got that part wrong. I wonder what else you might be wrong about.
