I was a serious preacher of Bitcoin to the commoners or the newbies but, was almost slapped by one of my closed friend who once invested on a Ponzi Scheme that pretend to be a Bitcoin legitimate investment platform. Although, his argument was based on the facts with him, later in two moths after the hot argument, i told him where to invest and he made his profits. Sometimes we should be patient with them and guild them because, they are still nobs even though they look matured.
4302  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What do you think about Bitcoin and the games industry? on: October 04, 2019, 01:45:24 PM
Bitcoin and game industry have connection each other how to build an easy way to purchase your needed using bitcoin as payment way, keep connecting bitcoin and game industry.

More also, the anonymity that Bitcoin has brought has promote more gamblers to gamble, knowing fully well that they are fully shielded by the anonymity of Bitcoin. As a gambler, i have never wanted to gamble on the traditional ways again, becasue of what happened to me. I was beaten black and blue to give up my winnings on Gambling; that i did gave them my won profits. But the advent of cryptocurrency, i can now bet anonymously and go home with my profits without anybody harassment.

.......
So the question is , should i sold like 2500XRP and buy BTC when this one have a price drop?
........
Ripple has a growing community also as Bitcoin but the difference between them is that; Bitcoin has a bigger community and being a decentralized platform. These attribute draw many potential investors into invest in the community. Bitcoin dorminance have been on the increase while the Altcoins are been down. I will say this, is better to invest in bitcoin than risking your investment into altcoins like ripple, ethereum is better than ripple in my opinion. Sell out your ripple portfolio to get into Bitcoin investment.

Ok this actually happens to my friend not so long ago, he is going on a boxing match and he will bet for the heavy favorite, then suddenly an unknown guy whisper to him, that the fight is going to be fixed and he supposedly heard it from the favorite to win, locker room, are you going to listen to that and bet for the underdog.

What's your take?
I wouldn't trust the words of a man I don't even know and would bet on a heavy boxer. I understand your friend was analyzing the outcome of the match and changing his choice because of the stranger's opinion is foolish.

Specifically, I don't think the friend is foolish by follow the strangers opinion in the change of the bet. Come to think of this; if you have been close to friends with similar mindset when it come to gambling. I have been around many friends who have helped me with my bet  changed and I worn. How many times do you place a bet and worn? I mean, on your own bet placement. No man is an island, we all depends on each other for information. When they whisper it into your ear, kindly make another bet to support your initial bet placement.
4305  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What Do You Look For In A Bounty Campaign on: September 28, 2019, 05:58:48 PM
First and foremost, the project social media accounts updates since the account creation is always my first priority in choosing bounty to participate. Most of the unsuccessful projects are mostly those projects that create accounts prior to the launch of their project but, those I have seen so far succeeding are those that have existing social media accounts before the launch. More also, the team of the project is one essential part I consider before joining any bounty and team profile must be public and not private. Things have happened in this industry and, one can no longer take things for granted.
4306  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Closings bountyhive? on: September 28, 2019, 05:38:01 PM
Many have heard of such a platform as a https://bountyhive.io. The platform was engaged in bounties and paid fairly regularly, although many projects were a big deception. There was news from the chat that you need to enter eos, stellar wallets, as tokens will be sent that the company owes to those who did not manage to enter the wallets on time. Does this mean that the platform will be closed, so new projects are not added to it. Maybe someone has information about the project.
It's just a update from their system, so that more projects on blockchains other than Ethereum can work here. I agree that they have many failed projects last year, but in this year they have quite a lot of projects with significant rewards for hunters.
Can you sincerely mention to the house these projects with significant success? Most of the bounties that I participated on their platform where just a huge waste of time and resources but, the past has  gone. No justification given or be giving will be enough for me to admits that; their platform really work well like other bounties platforms. Several times, they ban my account because of me asked questions that borders on projects in their platform.

Its high time they close up because of their shit projects be promoted on the platform. There have been unpaid payment of tokens with several team projects which where been promoted, the platform suck and I went my own way.
4307  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why is Ripple not dead? on: September 28, 2019, 05:21:09 PM
Things like that won't happen to ripple. Knowing the secret team behind ripple will speak louder than whatsoever we post here. Ripple will contend with Libra coin because the big giants believed in ripple for privacy than; getting into Libra coin without privacy protection. Centralized tokens will take turn to be patronized in the nearest future because, they will be the favorite for the government to control. Ripple will not die just like others did in the past, those behind ripple are more like the government, then, why will it die?
4308  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bakkt disappointment on: September 28, 2019, 07:04:58 AM
I'm also quite disappointed with Bakkt when their volume only has a few BTC per day. and that is why people are disappointed and the market collapsed in the past few days
Time without number; Bakkt has done nothing to the current situation of bitcoin price, if you ask me per se. Baktt launch first announcement help the price to shoot, if many will still remember but, the current launched they did few days ago is yet to be seen as a catalyst to the cryptocurrency world in general, this will happen on a long term, so, let's wait for the right time. Remember that, Bitcoin has enemies who can go extra mind to distort the general well being of the cryptocurrency world. Bakkt has opened a door for more potential investors into the system either institutionally or individually, so, let wait for sometimes before complain.
4309  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bakkt disappointment on: September 27, 2019, 10:09:54 PM
How many of you guys feel disappointed about how bakkt did nothing to crypto market price but shrink it down to where it is today? i am one of those who think bakkt will have huge impact on crypto market since 2018 so here we are today and things went sideways

On the contrary I haven't seen what you saw as disappointment as Bakkt launched their platform. Although the impact is not yet felt doesn't mean there will not be a positive impact for the entire market of cryptocurrency. Looking at the first time they announced their launch back in 2018, the market actually experienced positive impact, so, this made many to think: that it has not affected the price like it does in the past. Without iota of doubt, the impact will come but we have to wait for it to happen. We should remember that; they bought some qualities of bitcoin after their first announcement in 2018 and that actually affected the price, but now ready for business.
4310  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Many new traders are playing to lose on: September 27, 2019, 09:05:29 PM
It is because people think that trading is easy, that it is a game like casino. But trading is not gambling........

Basically many thought of trading as gambling thereby getting the wrong lotion about the two. Trading is more of learning than gambling that is base on pure luck, as a gambler; one thing that I have understood from this industry is: gambling is more of a game of non-pro unlike trade. More reason why many run at loose in trade is purely because; they thought trade is like gambling that required no skills and techniques. Personally, I have been involved in the two and have gotten the needed experience in differentiating the two similar profession.

I heard on the news how many traders have been knocked down because of the downtrend of the current situation in cryptocurrency. Many thought trade is simple but haven't understand how technical and skillful a trader should be before embarking in trade. I have lost in my early days but later learn how to be a little pro.
4311  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why would someone use an exchange to shift $1.2 Billion worth of bitcoins? on: September 26, 2019, 07:41:42 PM
The current price fall seems to be a well planned attack on the bitcoin price. Maybe they want it to be on the bad news or to get weak hands to sell off while they come back and buy cheap.
We all actually that, there are enemies of bitcoin who never wanted it to be heard among other currency, especially some government and some institutions who seem to be oppressed by the existence of Bitcoin. Although, we are entitled to our opinions, attacks on bitcoin have been known before now but, basically because of the bakkt launch was this attack carried out by some powerful whales. Those manipulation will not stay longer because bitcoin is gradually becoming a global digital currency through social medias, government of nations have nursed some ideas of creating their own cryptocurrency, control by the government. Because nobody can control bitcoin, that's why they tend to manipulate the whole market issues to disallow potential investors.
4312  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How do we get the best at this moment? on: September 26, 2019, 06:25:37 PM
Am holding my portfolios at the moment and do not want to loose my portfolios by sell. Holding is my option after I saw the dropped some days ago. For those who are eager to sell are just doing this at their own disadvantage because the bear market will not stay longer as speculated, reasons be that, the months ahead are known to be good months for cryptocurrency. Keep a little patience will save many from regrets.
4313  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Altcoiners, don't give up yet. Bitcoin can't do it alone. on: September 26, 2019, 06:02:37 PM
Exactly what many disagreed with that, Bitcoin can't live alone without the presence of altcoins, altcoins are the taxis on the high way of Bitcoin and will ride along with Bitcoin. Most investor are disappointed in some improper projects which they were scammed and stick to Bitcoin that they have known. My reason to come back into altcoins domain in 2019 was my investment in altcoins late 2018 MB8, this investment gave me hope for the future of altcoins. Bitcoin cannot do this alone, and must go along with altcoins, so, don't give up on altcoins.
4314  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Hold on to patience even when it feels like wearing off on: September 26, 2019, 05:35:00 PM
From the start we all know that this is the nature of every crypto. It has a very unstable price value that every time will change and we ...................

I quite disagreed with that because, many are still complaining about the market volatility and seem to them that, the world.if cryptocurrency is full of birds of rosary. Impatience among investors have caused many to loose their profits while they invest, some of them never want to see the market going down. Although, i was a victim of these theory's at my early stages but learnt my lessons while invest in 2018. I almost lost my whole investment in 2018 when the entire market was down and was speculated to get to $1000 per BTC, I summoned my courage and later see a good profit from my investment. So, patience is the right key to make reasonable profit from cryptocurrency investment.
4315  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BAKKT launching tomorrow but BTC price falls? on: September 22, 2019, 01:07:01 PM
Why isn’t the official launch of BAKkT driving btc prices up but instead it’s going the opposite way?
.........

Basically they said it before the price shitfted positively and the launch was postponed, so, what we are seeing doesn't mean it announcement again for the launch have no traction. The traction will come as soon as they actually launch their program. Personally, the believe that this launch will produce positive results for bitcoin and altcoins is what happened last time they intended to launch. Let keep our fingers across and see what happen later this year or in the year 2020.
4316  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: bounty hunters and Exchanges. on: September 22, 2019, 12:20:04 PM
As a bounty hunter, I have registered on many exchanges because of my bounty hunting. The cause of these exchanges registry's was as a result of my participation on many projects in the forum and outside the forum, the records still go that, whenever I received any token, I usually get over to the listed exchange to register and, this is how I ended up with my registration on several exchanges. Although, I don't feel comfortably seeing myself doing this because of different passwords and usernames one have to keep. Most of my frequent exchanges are the Binance and Bitmix including the latoken. Naturally I wouldn't advise anyone of having register on many exchanges when there are good few ones that can serve traders better, except for the bounty hunters.
4317  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 5Dimes founder found dead in Costa Rica a year after abduction on: September 21, 2019, 07:59:22 PM
Even the $1-million ransom paid by William Sean Creighton's wife to the kidnappers was to no avail.

After having being reported missing for almost a year, the founder of 5Dimes sportsbook was found dead in Costa Rica, the local police confirmed.

Source: https://www.bitcoinsportsbetting.co.uk/news/5dimes-founder-found-dead/
That was a great loose to the family and the gambling industry. Going through the story, I can deduce some reasons which could have possibly lead to his death by those kidnappers. Firstly, they paid the kidnappers unreasonable amount of money they actually demanded from them ( $5m to $1m) which was far bellow the kidnappers demands. Greediness on the part of the family maybe also contribute because, as the owner of a gambling platform you will be seen as a multi millionaire. Secondly, close friends to the victim are the ones that actually carried out the kidnapped and demand ransom. I have leant a lesson, never give kidnappers one third of what they demand, in my country were there is higher rate of kidnapping, you dare not pay one third of what they demand ( ransom ). The gambling industry have just lost another potential investor.
4318  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Did gambling affected your personal reputation? on: September 21, 2019, 05:32:48 PM
It affects me negatively and positively. As a family man, most of time in gambling are supposed to be used for the family but, whenever I start gambling, I totally forgets to recognized the presence of my family until am done with the gambling, this has caused me a big dispute between me and my nucleus family. It has made my family life difficult in terms of giving of attention to the family. Although, most of my winnings bring joy to the family as the proceeds from gambling are what I used for family maintenance. Currently, I have been able to balance the time for gambling and that of the family.
4319  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Most of gamblers are rich or poor? on: September 21, 2019, 05:11:36 PM
I don't really understand statistics,
in the environment around me, only rich people play gambling, whereas poor people are only busy working to fulfill their daily needs,
IMO, the majority of gambling players are rich people because they have money and lots of time to play gambling.
Categorically you are saying the opposite buddy. The last time I checked, the poor were the ones taking the lead in the world of gambling because the rich do gamble just for fun or for entertainment purpose. The poor often check for opportunities in the world of gambling while the rich aren't but doing it for fun till they get their wins. I have been gambling for sometimes now and, I often stay around gambling platform's to ensure I have my win even though I still loose. The poor will remain and wait patiently for his or her luck to shine but the rich will never be patient like the poor gamblers.
In my country, the numbers of sport enthusiasts are youths without job ( that is the unemployed youths) and they are poor, they survive from what they do as gamblers.
4320  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which Online Casino has the Most Fun Games? Recommendations? on: September 20, 2019, 02:11:30 PM
For Cryptocurrency Casino, I suggest MINTDICE.COM, FortuneJack, and Stake.com.

For a traditional casino, I think what's interesting right now is MliveU.. MliveU is a live chat application, when you are bored with gambling games you can watch sexy girls LIVE there.. just for fun  Cheesy
In addition to your suggested casinos, although I have tried many online casinos but found fortune jack very interesting among others and the Windice.io gambling platform. The most interesting part on Windice is that of the Telegram gambling enable platform, this has given me additional pleasure from what I do get from gambling before now.  As a gambler, am not the addicted type as I gamble for fun and for entertainment.
