4241  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to Overcome and Handle Your Mistakes in Trading? on: July 06, 2020, 08:02:21 PM
no trader could win on every trade they do make and all the failures while trading should not be considered as mistake but may be accounted as lack of knowledge on technical analysis. I mean when your sound in technical analysis then the chances for making mistakes in trading will be very less. Only the traders who are not experienced in making good signal out of their technical analysis must be facing frequent losses and may consider them as mistakes.

Indisputably frequent losses and failures are the consequences of either limited knowledge or little experience in cryptocurrency trading. But it seems to me that it is not always possible to make such an accurate technical analysis as to constantly have 100% accuracy of the forecast in relation to a particular coin. Even the most professional analysts can make a forecast with an accuracy of no more than 75%. Therefore, it seems to me that it is impossible to always be in the black.
Yes, fail, fail again, fail better, fail until you succeed. you only need to succeed on the last try. And many more sayings like these. The main topic of this is if you are trading and making mistakes, that's fine, if you are making mistakes and not learning anything from it that is a mistake, if you traded and failed and gave up, that is the worst in all of them. You have to realize that you have a power to turn things around and make yourself richer by actually learning how to trade instead of quitting, but of course you need to study your own mistakes very well to avoid doing it again.

It is actually a great advantage to be able to fail early on, because if you fail early on you know that you are learning at the low levels and you will get better when it matters, instead of profiting a ton of money early on but not learning anything so lose them all in the end when you fail for the first time.

If people really knew what altcoin would be the next monster, we would see tons of people investing into it and they would actually cause the price of that altcoin to go up and actually do become that next monster because of it. However people do not know, they all have predictions and guesses and assumptions but in the end it is something none of us really know.

Ethereum has a good trajectory with all the increases and all the new staking thing and eth 2.0 etc etc, that should be something but I do not really think that people even trust that right now, they are still staying solid away from ethereum too if you look at the price. So, it is not really something that we can be sure about and that is why I think we will never know which one will be the next monster until it happens and we are too late.
4243  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Brave browser CEO apologizes for automatically adding affiliate links to cryptoc on: July 05, 2020, 08:17:22 PM
Honestly I feel like this was not the CEO who did this but someone in the company who just wanted to make a bit of profit from something like this and took advantage. When CEO found out, he probably fired the employee, put in charges, and removed that code. So, I can't really say it is easy to forgive Brave for this but I can see how they could be the victims as well since they might have lost both profits but also credibility as well.

However if it was something done with the knowledge of the CEO, that is quite scary, no company who is making enough profits should be looking to make something like this, it not only stops your income stream but it also prevents you get a proper one in the future as well, it just hurts you as a whole and could cause you to completely go bankrupt for failure.
4244  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What do you wish you could do the most with your Bitcoin? on: July 05, 2020, 06:01:56 PM
As we can see here, people just simply want to spend or invest it a lot more, they just want to be part of something bigger while they use bitcoin as well. I know that it is not common and bitcoin is not spent properly and only in few places, but if you check all pages you will see that bitcoin is wanted to be spent in more places, that's it.

Definitely there are few who would like to put it in banks, few want to make money with money, but the general train of thought is actually spending it. This is actually one of the hardest things to manage because it is an amazing amount of money to be made if you make a company about it, but it is also legally quite tough situation as well. If any company in the world could manage to handle the legal part of things, they could definitely handle the business side of it since there is so much request for it.
4245  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: You want the best for your new project? on: July 05, 2020, 05:17:34 PM
Honestly there needs to be a place for the bad ones as well. The alternative is that bad coins will want to be in the good exchanges and steal even more money from people to actually be there, which is why it is great that there are exchanges who are willing to list or do coin offering on bad coins in order to make them stay away from the cool ones and get the easy quick money.

The perfect situation would be bad coins and bad exchanges all not existing, however the sad truth is they do exist and they will continue to exist, which is why we will always need a place to send them away. Think of it as trash can (or garbage if you want it) and these exchanges are the places where we throw the garbage coins into the garbage bin and just let them be there instead of actually being around the house.
4246  Economy / Gambling / Re: Roobet.com | Crypto’s Fastest Growing Casino 🦘 on: July 05, 2020, 03:16:01 PM
Alright, no need to pay attention to that accusation as there is not enough evidence yet that Roobet has scammed him. As of now, I have not yet to read a case that Roobet can claim to be a scam. Anyway, to me, that would only depend on a gambler if he relies heavily on a casino. But of course, it is not uncommon for others to think about the risks of such platforms based on past of other casinos. Maybe just avoid comparing it to an old casino because they are not the same. This does not mean that other casinos have become scams and it will be scams as well.
We still didn't manage to get roobet to talk about this? I mean that would be the important part because they are the only ones who can give a proper response to it, we can assume and assume all day and all night long and even one guy is already bored from talking about it, yet roobet hasn't responded with anything just yet. This should either be over when all of us feel bored about the subject which I feel like I won't for a little more while, or it should be over when roobet actually comes in and talks about the situation.

I think if we can PM them or just tell them on support or anywhere to come here and read the numbers and just give us a response, they might realize something is going on here and they will come here to respond to it as well, not sure if they would want to but it worths a shot.
4247  Economy / Gambling / Re: 🚀 Sportsbet.io - Get a Price ₿oost on every sport, every day! 🤑🤑🤑 on: July 05, 2020, 01:49:56 PM
The truth is that the sportsbook also get things wrong almost as often as they do get it right, Chelsea won against Man City just a few day before that and they were offered at an even great value, what would you say about that ? Of course the sportsbook probably do get a lot of informations about these games and it's used to determine the odds, but it necessarily doesn't mean it will always affect the result positively.

If you look at logically it is probably always in the odds providers best interest that the underdogs win, then providing odds that would almost certainly decide the winner of any fixture is directly in contradiction to that interest.
Well, I didn't mean like sportsbooks are always right, there are times when even 10.00+ odds actually hit and happened. Do you guys remember the time Leicester became champions? It was like 5500+ odds and some dude actually won it as well and made a ton of news about how he was tried to accept earlier bet so that he would take less but win for sure instead of waiting for the last game.

So, yes the sportsbooks do end up paying through the nose sometimes when unexpected happens, however what I meant was, the team that has the highest points by a big margin, the team that became champions when there was like 100 games left, and the team that might break the most points collected record after actually becoming 4th most collected points just year, had 3.7+ odds which you have to agree looks weird on paper. That's all I wanted to say.
4248  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: A good book to learn how to trade. on: July 05, 2020, 08:12:24 AM
I think books on learning something like trading doesn't feel like it requires a book these days. Just like design or coding, trading is no longer on books, sure there are books about it and a million of them but trading is something that changes very fast and there are a million stuff online for free that you can learn from.

I am not saying do not read books in general or books are useless or anything, you should still read books for fun and to educate yourself and become a better human. However not for trading, I would say go online and check out what you can learn from online courses and they will actually teach you better than what you can learn from books. Plus when studying online you can ask questions, you can't ask questions to books which is why they are subpar when you are trying to learn something.
4249  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Cryptocurrency Day Trading: How to Get Started & How to Win on: July 04, 2020, 07:47:05 PM
I personally think that everyone's path is different, everyone's mindset is different. Some people came in too early, made just enough money and left, some people made even more money, some people got in a lot later, and made just enough money or maybe they all lost money. There is a million type of people and there is a million ways to get into bitcoin, not all of them are the same and this is why I think that "how to" stuff in bitcoin world are not that reasonable.

I would rather deal with my own version of success and create a path for that individually that suits me the best, that way I do not have to follow anyone else and can do it however I please and how I like. Of course, this doesn't mean I can't take lessons from others experiences, but I could use it to shape my own version.
4250  Economy / Economics / Re: Can we rely on Bitcoin and cryptocurrency? on: July 04, 2020, 05:28:00 PM
At the end of the day there is a big potential on bitcoin that can reach to those levels, I do not really think that it should be that big of a deal right now and I agree that it will take some time to reach there, but we have a huge potential. Hopefully we will get to a higher level in few years and we will become mainstream in 10-15 years.

By 2030 I would like to see bitcoin everywhere and people getting salaries in bitcoin and also people who spend bitcoin only without ever having any fiat in their pockets. So, we should be patient, we should wait, we should collect and accumulate as much bitcoin as we can and consider 2030 1st of January as the moment we will sell, if you say you will wait almost 10 years, suddenly small changes in price doesn't really matter because you have years you can wait.
4251  Economy / Economics / Re: China economy and how they handle Covid-19. on: July 04, 2020, 03:59:14 PM
They are a huge industrial nation, they do not care about air and pollution too much as we all know and that helps them to basically be production place for the whole worlds items. This is basically why I believe that even with covid going around they could find stuff to produce.

For example, they either gave away or sold hundreds of thousands of test kits, which means they kept people in the market for buying something with china, they basically kept people in talks with them instead of looking for another place. All of this basically resulted with China going back to how things were when all of this is over, a friend of mine who ships stuff to here from china actually said his ship is on the way and coming to Jersey in early August, which means they are actually doing quite fine.
4252  Economy / Economics / Re: 2010 one Lebanese lira = 0.67 BTC today 1 lira = 1 Satoshi on: July 03, 2020, 08:25:49 PM
Yeah, this comparison is not fair at all, it is really just way of saying that Lebanese lira is actually doing that different from others, I personally think that they are doing about the same as the other places. Sure they are going down, sure they are lower in value and sure there is inflation going on but that doesn't mean that Lebanese lira is the only one, it might be or might not be the worst I don't know all the currencies, but just because its bad doesn't mean others are doing better, which is why I think its quite important to know that that currency wasn't doing that bad at all, it was basically the norm.

Obviously currencies losing value is a very bad thing, it leads to a ton of problems, but just because all of it did, doesn't mean one doing the same could mean something different.
4253  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin is bullish longterm on: July 03, 2020, 06:18:40 PM
They could be the ones that are losing money but they are also the ones that are making money as well. You can never know how a trader makes his money, sometimes they are profiting sometimes they are losing, the same trader could have the different results in a month. There are traders who are good at what they do and there are traders who are bad at what they do, which means you will see both of those type of people in the world as well.

So, when you look at it we are talking about good traders making more profit but sometimes lose a little and bad traders who lose usually but make profit time to time. All of these happens every single day thousands of people all around the world. So, long term is not the only way to make money from bitcoin world.
4254  Economy / Speculation / Re: What will governments do next to manipulate Bitcoin? on: July 03, 2020, 05:41:26 PM
Do you think they could have a branch on government to do something about crypto or is it like too small to care? I mean they have bunch of branches for everything, having one for crypto could be different and with all the tax they could get from tracking every single person and asking for tax could mean that it would be a government branch that actually profits as well and not cost money. If they do something like that, it could both manipulate bitcoin but also it could help you out as well.

So, would you prefer something that allows governments to manipulate bitcoin but can't control it (decentralized currency after all) but that would help you too, or would you want government to be out of it all together even if that means it would hurt you? I am not entirely sure but the reason why bitcoin was created was a bit of resistance towards current system so I would say latter would be better.
Well, the only method I can think of to actually make any sort of manipulation that they could even make a profit from is actually that doesn't require moves with money to manipulate, sure they need money for the profit part but the manipulation doesn't require any money at all.

If you are a big nation, just tell the world that you are considering banning bitcoin all together, and even have a public announcement that you want to meet other big world leaders on potentially banning or at least limiting very much with full government knowledge (like KYC but harsher) to even own bitcoins, that will drop the price a lot. Buy as many bitcoins as you can as government when the price is that low and continue to be harsh.

After a while when you have enough, tell everyone you changed your minds and you will allow bitcoiners to exist and also will support them, that will increase the price a lot. You can sell after this stage.
4255  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will a BTC bull market begin in July? on: July 03, 2020, 04:15:11 PM
3 days is nothing in the bitcoin world and also a lot of time in the bitcoin world at the same time. What I mean by this is that bitcoin price could go up a lot in three days, it could go up like a million times but at the same time it could not move at all for months, this is why I think it is crucial to know that bitcoin not moving for 3 days is not a big deal not because it can't go up in three days (it can go up a lot) but it can also stay the same for a lot longer period, this is the part where people are mistaking.

Wait a bit more, July is just starting out and it will continue for another 27 days and unless you are talking about some major stagnant record breaking situation, it will definitely move eventually, either up or down but it will definitely move to some direction.
4256  Economy / Gambling / Re: 🚀 Sportsbet.io - Get a Price ₿oost on every sport, every day! 🤑🤑🤑 on: July 03, 2020, 03:57:04 PM
Honestly when sportsbooks gave Liverpool such a low chance to win and the odd was so high, I was a bit confused, after all I thought this is the team that lost only once (to watford!) and why would they lose now? Sure they have a "chance" to lose like in any game but it was over 3.5+ for Liverpool to win the game, it looked like it is nowhere near that impossible for them to win that game and the odd looked weird.

Now that I look at the result, maybe sportsbooks know this thing more than we do Cheesy. They actually allowed Liverpool to be that high so that people would find it lucrative and wager on it and they knew that City would be the better team on the pitch. The game ended 4-0, wasn't even close to being competitive and from the first half it was already decided, kudos to all odd providers.

Even if I never finished in a paid position for Steves poker, it was still a lot of fun.   Congratulations to all those who made some money!
As long as you finish at the payment levels there is really not much else you could do with it, you got something, that is better than you can ask from anywhere else. Do not forget that it is the fun that matters, it is free and it is just entertainment and as long as you are having fun that is winning in my book.

Hopefully this poker thing continues forever, sportsbet really nailed it and has managed to make it pretty known. I personally never really did anything of worth and honestly even though I try to hang it in there I just can't keep myself from going short early on, hopefully will do better later. Sportsbook becoming the most liked poker place is one of the weirdest things I heard in my life but crypto is a place where I have seen plenty of weird things before.
4258  Economy / Gambling / Re: 🎲EarnBet.io - $50 FREE Bitcoin Sign Up Bonus Right Now! 🎲Provably Fair 🎲BTC ₿ on: July 02, 2020, 06:51:04 PM
I would say "$50 BTC Welcome Bonus" because people don't get the bonus for depositing alone. It's depositing and playing x amount. But by saying "$50 BTC Welcome Bonus" its more general thus covers the bonus in its totally more. From there its up to the player to read the requirements for it.

All in all, you guys are doing a great job! Remembering where you came from (just a single Dice game) to what it is now. Smiley Keep it up. I hope the staking feature is released soon. Should give me a lot more dividends I assume Grin

This kind of bonuses are standard thing in fiat casino industry. We are avoiding them in crypto industry as much as possible but it is moving in that direction.
You know what sucks about it? They came in here a month ago, A MONTH AGO and said what should they change the topic name to, they said maybe putting the right thing would be better and realized what would be better, and they even sent a post about it. Look at it a month later, they are still keeping the same topic name and they are still saying "50 dollar free bitcoin sign up bonus" like it is free to take whenever you want when in fact it is nowhere near and definitely wrongful marketing.

I hope they will realize one day that tricking people into coming into the casino is no way of making a long term business, it may get few people who fall for it, but it won't help them in the long term. I don't know who is the marketing guy for this website but he has dropped the ball insane amount of times.
4259  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How is the future of projects with gold-based tokens? on: July 02, 2020, 04:39:17 PM
I keep saying that I do not even trust dollar backed ones and they are as easy as sending money to your bank account, it takes maybe a day or so to send it at worst, let's say 7 days at the very latest, but at the end of the day how could they even think about doing similar on gold?

We are talking about sending gold from nation to nation which has a ton of legal things tied to it and when you are doing something as valuable as transporting gold from one place to another it is a very risky thing and costs a ton of money to send. So, at the end of the day there is no way that gold could be backing up a coin, you can try it but at the end you are going to fail it and not going to have a success with it ever with all those potential problems that could rise from the legal and shipping problems
4260  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Just because it's called a shitcoin doesn't mean it really is on: July 02, 2020, 02:55:30 PM
many called electroneum and apollo currency shitcoins last year but this year the coins start showing good signs, you don't have to make your money from Bitcoin or popular coins, you can make money from not so popular projects too, remember HEX? Haha I'm sure you guys know what I'm talking about.
I have not heard about apollo currency but electroneum cannot be a shitcoin. But, anything about hex must be too earlier as hex focus on locking your coins for 180 or for similatr time frame and also you must need to spend some money on paying for ethereum's gas while claiming your free  hex coins for your BTC balances. If this topic is all about hex then I want to opt out.

Hex may not be a shitcoin and at the same time, does not have any superior innovation for claiming and saving for long term holding.
In my view, it is just another bitcoin fork with mandatory holding period in the name of staking and the worst part is paying for ethereum gas which must be complete new on BTC forks regarding.

A project is usually called a shitcoin when it has almost no prospects either for future growth, or even a slight recovery.
That must be the right definition of shitcoins. I just entered into this topic by assuming OP is talking about shitcoins in general but he is trying to promote hex, a BTC fork on ETH smart contract with enforced holding periods.
