Nothing is gonna make you a better player in gambling. To be a big player it is must to learn on their own and keep on experimenting. Maybe you'll fail continuously but you'll learn some tactics out of the same. When it comes to poker however you practice online/offline without luck nothing gets turned to be a myth.
4142  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Would you buy a house? on: July 23, 2019, 08:46:40 AM
"Buying some bitcoin with buying your house" , im so confused with that part  . you mean buy bitcoin after someone buys your house ?
IMO hat he meant is that investing with bitcoin and his holdings is the thing which he will use for buying a new house. I guess he just fail to pick the right word, much better if he used "invest" instead "buy" Cheesy.

Anyway, I also want to buy a house using my btc not only because of the money you can save but also the mere fact that you are now being a part of crypto adoption. It's so fulfilling for sure. By the way, if you are living in the Philippines and want to buy one then better check this out.
As described every user should have similar mindset on making use of bitcoin. Being a part of bitcoin network we used to make use of it directly which will help with the growing adoption of bitcoin. Already there were more properties being sold in exchange of bitcoin, maybe soon we can see users from our forum mentioning that they've bought a house with bitcoin.
4143  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will the price of BTC stabilize at around $10,000?🧐🧐 on: July 23, 2019, 08:32:47 AM
People want bitcoin at $8,500

i certainly do. i'm still betting we go no lower than $8k. anything in the $8000s is a solid buy. price won't stay down there for long---strong v-bottom expected.


too low. bears are already getting greedy, i can feel it. by the time we're bottoming in the $8000s or $9000s, they'll be aiming for $6k again.
Agreed, this time the price could fall low to $6000. The price has been found stabilized above $10000 for a long and the market keeps falling without any forward price move. Upon the same I belive the the price move is in down trend and the same is predicted to go low to $6000 if there isn't any large scale price pumping to take the value get pumped above $12000.
4144  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What are some things all gambling websites/apps/games should have? on: July 23, 2019, 08:03:31 AM
Most prominent feature that a gambling site needs to have were the UI that is easy usable even for the very first time user of the gambling site as well to the one who is completely new to gambling. Dice sites needs to be provably fair while sports betting sites needs to be provided with perfect odds on games. Apart from this common features of a site which is the security, good support, on time settlement, KYC free access.
4145  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Would you participate in new project if it is not listed in ICO rating websites? on: July 23, 2019, 07:28:32 AM
There are websites that haven't got listed on these rating sites, but have good potential. Even with ICO rating website there are paid services. It is always good to go through the project details and do your own research before making an investment. Even much rated projects have failed, so making ones own decision seems to be better than following ICO rating websites. From my view those websites can be kept as a reference.
4146  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: KYC Process (Sportsbook) on: July 23, 2019, 06:45:09 AM
Every gambling website require signing up of an account, other than that there isn't any more verification involved other than the email verification. Exchanges were the one that request for the KYC as there will be huge withdrawals. These days cryptocurrency users will always skip the websites that request KYC fulfillment as cryptocurrency users prefer to be anonymous.

Does this have anything positive associated with the growth of gambling industry through cryptocurrency usage.
What's been stated seems to be a common meet for the sports betting enthusiasts and gaming people.
4148  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: July 23, 2019, 04:16:26 AM
Singapore won their match against Qatar by 33 runs, Qatar just weren't able to put partnerships together while Singapore top order played well to set a decent sized target which I thought was always going to be hard for Qatar to chase down. Malaysia also won their match which was to be expected against Kuwait. 
Singapore has made its win against Qatar on the world cup T20 qualifier. It is good to see both the teams having Indian players. The player of the match Surendran Chandramohan seems to be an Indian from his name. Same is with other players like Manpreet Singh of Singapore, Janak Prakash, Chetan Suryawanshi of Qatar.
4149  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Indian government appointed committee proposed draft bill might get approved on: July 23, 2019, 03:37:27 AM
Such outcome was well envisaged by the Indian crypto community. The kind of political leaders we have currently, we can only expect to go back in time. There was actually no hope that India will adopt the digital currencies. Rather, they are focusing on divide and rule politics since the inception of the current government. The age old politicians are just not capable to understand the power of cryptos as well as the one-exam-wonder beaurocrats. God save the country!

Well said, it is very sad to hear the political rule of the government. The country is at its edge of separation based on religion and based on culture. World used to praise India for its diverse culture and religious practices. The monetary rule too the same, they decide as a monopoly and reveal to the people as that happened with de monetization. Now the government always have a world digitized nation, but they always stand against digital growth. Now there were news rolling out stating India gonna have its own cryptocurrency.
4150  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Gov'ts and Institutions buying up Bitcoin on: July 23, 2019, 02:45:12 AM
There is no solid proof stating that bitcoin is being is being bought by governments and institutions. There were some predictions that institutions might also engage into buying and holding of large volume of funds for profiting in the long term.

From a press release from Southeast Law Enforcement Center in 2017 revealed data regarding Bulgaria having half million dollars worth of bitcoin. The same calculation gives a 2 million worth to be into the reserve of Bulgaria which is higher that of their gold reserve.

It is the only country in which data related to the bitcoin reserve got known and calculated.
4151  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Whats better holding many coins or fewer coins? on: July 22, 2019, 11:54:51 PM
I think it's better to hold just a few coins than hold many coins. investing must be calculated, if we allocate our funds for something that does not necessarily provide profit, we are losing money and time.

just put your money in 4 or 6 different types of cryptocurrencies but all you have to choose is coins that are in the top 100 crypto capitalization currencies, I don't mean to say that a coin below the 100 is not good, it's just too risky.

I would disagree with that because it's not my style actually.
For me, holding lots of coins can minimize the risk and that makes me more comfortable investing for long term.
What I'm really thinking is maybe if I hold a lot of coins, that could help me find a hidden gem in crypto that could change my life.
As long as the coin has a potential, even if risky, I will not hesitate to buy it but of course with proper fund management.
Agreed, we've got 2000+ cryptocurrencies to invest. Among them there can be life changing assets, but that is really hard to find. When we diversify on large number of altcoins we get our portfolio value almost in a stable way and when when the market turns bullish we'll get a bigger profit out of any one of the asset which is the success of holding large number of altcoins than a limited number.

As stated in the last line without proper fund management nothing can be made to be effective. With cryptocurrency based investment fund management is key factor.
4152  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Altcoins: to Mine or to Buy? That is the Question on: July 22, 2019, 11:43:13 PM
I tired to mine altcoin, i found mining become difficult this days may for very new altcoin it will be profitable, but i suggest buy altcoin instead of mining.


If you have got all the mining equipments then it is good to mine, else as suggested buying is the right choice.

When the price of bitcoin was around $3200 the amount spend upon mining the same was close to the same value which leaves miners without profit where there is high electricity consumption charges.

Now as the price of bitcoin has grown high the mining cost has decreased and the profitability has increased. The scenario hasn't chnaged with altcoins as there is no big growth relative to bitcoin.
4153  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Bitcoin and Ethereum Pump's up on: July 22, 2019, 11:30:25 PM
If the situation in the cryptocurrency market is appropriate, then it is quite possible that Bitcoin will show good results.  It is worth paying attention to the growth rate of prices for Bitcoin since the beginning of 2019 and it is quite possible to assume the same development of events until the end of this year.
I also do not deny that the end of this year bitcoin will experience development, but not for 30k, the bull market does not seem to be able to pump the price of bitcoin as high, especially seeing the development of bitcoin prices this year is a bit slow.
I see the opposite, this year's increase in bitcoin is very fast and very surprising.
I think this is a good potential and next year we will see it higher.


I hope so even trump thoughts he is against bitcoin, bitcoin is still in stronger stablities in the coin market cap, hoping bitcoin before ned of this year have pretty good development and improvement their price and hit again the old all time high. Year 2020 bitcoin and altcoins stay increase until reach 30k usd.
All traders expect bitcoin to stabilize immediately and provide an opportunity for altcoins to rise.
the best way to get profits is trading altcoin, as long as bitcoin is not stable then altcoin is very risky to trade.
These days bitcoin is found much strong against ethereum which serves to be the reason for growth of most of the altcoins. The price of ethereum against bitcoin was around 0.021 which was around 0.123 during January. This is a more than 80% fall, which shows people investing big on bitcoin and has left ethereum. There is lot to be updated on the ethereum network to make the market of ethereum progress giving hands to rest of the altcoins.
4154  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: You cannot win in gambling on: July 22, 2019, 11:17:41 PM
Now I am not an expert in gambling but this day was a really eye opener for me, you can never win in gambling. Imagine when you can't win in lotto , soccer betting or whatever you call it, you don't have a chance in slots.

To be fair, gambling is too broad a term nowadays. We cannot generalize gambling as if all gambling games can be categorized as one. I mean, I cannot classify dice as the same as a game of poker. They are obviously two different bananas. In the same manner that you cannot classify gambling on a lotto and gambling on a soccer game as one.

The huge difference is that the other one is purely based on luck while the other could be won based on skills, or perhaps based on a brilliant analysis. Gambling on a slot machine is definitely a world different from gambling on a game between Roma and Brondby on Italian Serie A.

Perhaps you are just having an unlucky day, mate. There are always better days ahead.
The better day comes out of luck, and the skills make way to be luck. Sometimes out of fate even after getting close to luck things go out of track. This happens often, and most of the gamblers could've experienced it. Dice, poker and other forms of gambling vary with the requirements, but those too has dependence over luck. Skills were the base and luck is the concluding factor.
4155  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Why does BCH use BTC to gain popularity? on: July 22, 2019, 11:04:54 PM
We know BCH is somewhat we call it as a clone for BTC, having such name it receives appreciation and market popularity but in the long run BCH didn't do it well and BTC taking it down. With BCH market design, we can't tell that the intention of its creation is to compete for BTC but is just similar to the other coins who have a different purpose and a place in the market.
As bitcoin cash is a forked coin out of bitcoin, the naming terminology is used. As it is a forked coin of bitcoin it gained popularity, and during the days after forking some started to claim bitcoin cash to be the original Bitcoin. Somehow that got vanished, but it has grown high than expected reaching more than $4000 when bitcoin touched its ath.
4156  Economy / Economics / Re: hackers becoming smarter than exchanges? on: July 22, 2019, 10:36:04 PM
Well most of us here are already aware of the hacking activities of binance and bancor.They are taking practical measures to track down the culprits but the question on my mind is why could coincidentally both exchanges be hacked?Now it appears that the exchanges are not moving at a faster and innovative ways to upgrading their systems and allow these hackers time to study their systems well,identify the loop holes and cause the problem.In my opinion, exchanges should always move in an unpredictable way so as to always confuse these scammers .The scammers are scaring new investors away and this must stop.Exchanges must be up and doing so that we can attract new investors into cryptocurrency else our efforts are going in vain to attracting new investors.

In a security system there must be a gap that is very guarded by the system. all depends on the security of the website and the people behind of the website. there is Many reputable exchange cases have to ended horribly and claimed the company was hacked and the coin was lost. if we remember the past like mtgox and other exchange that are trusted exchange at that time. but the possibility of vulnerability of stil systems exist these days. so this why i just believe with my own wallet . im just using exchange for Exchange to real money, not as my wallet to saving money there.
Already several horrible incidents have took place when the price of bitcoin was very low compared to the present. When something gets more value automatically the focus of the innovative people will turn towards the same and keep on learning to acquire it. Some does it in the right way while some try the back door. Everywhere everything can't be perfect, exchanges too have loopholes and the same is being used by the hackers. This is endless however secure we keep the funds.
4157  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think a "winning mindset" can get you what you want while gambling? on: July 22, 2019, 10:16:21 PM
I am sure that you always need to think positively, because it is positive thinking that attracts positive results.  A person who has a very bad mood is not able to achieve a good result.  But do not be too self-confident and exaggerate their capabilities.
 Right it is very important to think positive and to be sure about your winning chances. When a person think about winning he actually wins and who will remain afraid of lose will never get anything hard work and setting your goal before starting is very important as our half success depends on our thinking and our good mind-set.
Keep thinking positively indeed will have a good impact to maintain the mood during gambling but even so this method is still not enough for us to get winning easily. Because maintaining a good mindset and mood will only increase your confidence when betting.
With betting confidence doesn't have any role to be done. All that required is the courage and the emotional control, because even the game that we believed high could change in no time. This could make you suddenly go low, and the same shouldn't happen. By that time emotional control could let you decide what needs to be done and what shouldn't. Winning mindset is just a factor that pacify you till the end of the game.
4158  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin dominance hits 66.5%, alts lagging behind on: July 22, 2019, 09:53:21 PM
What's the conclusion? better buy a little bit of btc than full bags of alts.
The dominance level has come low, but it is found above 65% which is a small margin drop from its peak dominance. Maybe soon there will be a turn in the market with altcoins rising in value. Considering the same it seems to be good to invest on altcoins. As in the above quote always the largest percentage needs to be allocated to bitcoin to make the portfolio more valuable.

Man, these marketing and promotion tips and tricks are being used everywhere - not only in crowdsales Smiley Open your eyes and take a look around Smiley
And people are being fed with all this marketing crap every day - and nobody cries about this. Just be smarter than the crowd and live your own life Smiley
We are much used to it, still we fall for these kind of marketing without analyzing anything much about the project or the backing team. Marketing tricks are the one that makes people have a view over their project. Even the smarter will go greedy which is nature of human mind and to that its just a reminder to be careful on the go.
