How does one Put down Gambling for good?

Try to find things which is much more important than gambling. Its very hard to stop if you really prioritize gamble. Try to slowly erase it and fill it with your new discovered things and make it your hobby. Be persistent and patience, as time goes by, you will be slowly not craving for it and will be much more into your new hobby. I hope that the one you choose to replace the gambling should produce good result and not harm your self so that you can have a much more better life.
Repetition of same task really becomes a boredom after sometime. I won’t suggest going for some other activity because changing interest is not easy. It is not like you can change it whenever you want to as it is not in our control. I want the gambler to accumulate a good amount and then keep on playing for as long as he can, once he will do it he will lose interest in this game.

This is what happens ultimately. Play it like it is the last time and then you will never play it again or at least not crave it.
442  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Is it possible to use bitcoin like offline currency? on: November 02, 2017, 02:51:43 PM
Few days ago a friend asked me this questions. But i cannot understanding that how to i give him answer. At last i said him that, bitcoin is an online currency. Only this currency used in online marketplaces. It is not possible to use it in offline marketplace like offline currency.

But what is your best answer of this question?
We know that internet is most important element for bitcoin. Without internet, we can't think the process of bitcoin. It is an online based crypto currency. It is not designed for offline. For transaction and use it, internet connection is must be needed.
To this day I don’t think so that bitcoin can be used like paper currency, because you can use your local or any other paper currency anywhere but in bitcoin it is not possible till date because most of the people do not even know about bitcoin how they can accept bitcoin and the other problem is this that the restaurants, hotels, shops and any other place have no idea especially in my community to accept bitcoin. Therefore I think that using bitcoin like offline currency is not possible.
To this day and even in future will it ever be used as a paper currency. That is definitely not possible and that is why it is called digital. Over time, things would change and it would take either converting to fiat maybe via an online exchange like we already have now, or possibly just making use of cards for withdrawal or payment via POS. These are the changes that we will end up getting as time goes on.
443  Economy / Economics / Re: Will bitcoin change the distribution of wealth in the world? on: November 02, 2017, 02:14:59 PM
In my own opinion of bitcoin, one of the major grouse against it is on the basis of distorting the current order where the poor are at the mercy of the rich and with bitcoin on board, a lot of that will change with people having control of their money rather than being forced to put in the bank, put some restrictions in other to make the fund available for the rich to borrow and continue to improvise the poor while they become richer.
Exactly, a lot of it would change. You can make plans for your own freedom if you want to. No restrictions, people get paid based on their work and the government will not just keep monopolizing things the way they always have.

However, this does not mean the rich will still not always have advantage and only the poor ones who had the advantage of adopting early will only end up having their status changed. That is just it and nothing can change that fact. Opportunity comes, some takes it and some are left out to take from the lower part.
444  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: electrum for BTG on: November 02, 2017, 09:06:56 AM
that's why I asked. cos that web page to me looks like a scam site.
I just hope that vising it didn't do something. ESET didn't activate nothing.
thanks.
You should stay away. If electrum is listing BTG you would have gotten a notification or you can just go directly to their site to find the information. Moreover, it would have been listed on the BTG website itself, btcgpu.org which is the only place you can get information. However, I would be careful just distributing my private key just in any wallet and it is best you transfer your BTC to another wallet first before doing that.
445  Economy / Economics / Re: The legalization of bitcoin. on: November 02, 2017, 08:13:04 AM
Legalization is a very long process, we ard talking here about the whole world and not with a single nation. It is very hard but let us just take it in the positive way. May the legalization make BTC becomes useful and popular.
Many Asian countries have legalized it but again some of its big supporters like china and Russia have made some move against it in the past while they were big supporter of it once so it is difficult to say who is going to legalize bitcoin and who is not. Also, nobody knows for how long will a country support this currency but many businesses are accepting it and it has been praised by all great tech tycoons. The love of people for bitcoin is increasing and that is all what matters
Honestly, the adoption in Asian countries is really surprising. It sounds more like they are seeing much of the benefits they stand to gain from it than the rest of the world. It is pleasing though and I really hope some other part of the world would start taking steps towards it than trying to attack it. China may soon have a comeback and I really see that getting huge.

They have not stopped its usage yet and can be used as long as it is P2P, and hopefully if the regulations of the exchanges get concluded, it would be a good thing for the people, the country and bitcoin community. But one thing for sure is that bitcoin's growth is not dependent on their decisions as it would still grow anyway.
446  Economy / Economics / Re: Why people scam on: October 31, 2017, 06:21:43 PM
It is quick money if they scam they don't have to work hard for legal money thats why they do it. They want fast money as soon as possible so they scam with it.

There a lot of scammers with bitcoin so you should be alert they want all of your coin.
I know a lot of my friends that got into scam business. Most of them are very stupid to the extent they believe that scam is not an evil thing. They always say that scamming is better than killing people, so that you should scam than kill.

But all these things are the same and is punishable by the law if you found getting involved in such. Most of them are hardened criminals and you just have to avoid them.
447  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What is the risk of holding Bitcoin? on: October 31, 2017, 05:47:07 AM
Fear of holding btc, It may crash down to its original value because of its highly volatile, the second, it could be a big threat against theft or scam, The third , Im afraid bitcoins will be banned in our country.



Factors can be considered during holding bitcoin are losing of your keys wallet where all of your personal information data sheet has been erase or hacked and attacking system like virus. And one thing of holding bitcoin is when the time has a very low exchange value a big dump like i saidmakes it a double risk to you.
At this stage, and from research, even newbies should already understand the volatility level of bitcoin and how they can manage their emotions based on past experience once such situations arrive. It can be crazy but knowing what you are getting into before getting into it usually helps in any investment. Security is not really a huge risk if you know how to manage it.

449  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin to be Taxed...... on: October 19, 2017, 03:42:09 PM
the income tax for the work we live is a natural thing, but how the government imposes a tax on bitcoin, how they will find a way to do it will be difficult, we all know how the nature of bitcoin decentralization, bitcoin can not be managed by a country, but this is just my guess, every one of us want to exchange bitcoin into paper currency will be taxed for every bitcoin we exchange, whether like that
Yes, it is hard for the government to keep a eye on bitcoins as they have a decentralized nature and they were originated in 2009 as a anonymous currency so making it difficult for the government to track each and every transactions. Taxation on bitcoins will perhaps not work as they are completely anonymous.

Instead government can apply taxes on converting bitcoins to fiat as it is a centralized process. Bitcoins do not belong to any country as you mentioned instead bitcoins are a global digital currency.
450  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: How profitable are doing bounties? on: October 19, 2017, 02:15:26 PM
I feel like quitting my job and doing bounties full-time, but I am not sure how influential I will be and also how much can I expect to earn shilling multiple coins a month. Can anyone shed some light on this?
I think you should have atleast stable job because trusting your whole future on bounties kinda feel unsecure. I think you shpuld first save a lot of money in both your job and bounties then make an investment and from there think of it again. Its a matter of time and right choice by that time maybe you just sit and relac and wait for your money to grow.
This is really a very valid point. Doing bounties does not require a huge effort once you have everything in place.

This is something you can just do at your leisure, similar to what one has been doing normally and just get your coins rolling in and luckily see how it gets you extremely rich after a while via HODLing. It has worked for so many people who hit it on a good project and so many more to come eventually.
451  Economy / Economics / Re: Will bitcoin change the distribution of wealth in the world? on: October 19, 2017, 12:41:37 PM
Not really. You have to take into account the fact that rich people can get richer in Bitcoin quicker. There will be plenty of new rich people though, with the number of early adopters.
Rich people can have control over a large number of bitcoins. They raise the price and then sell your coins increasing his fortune several times. When the poor maintain their bitcoins to earn they can stay with a set of numbers on the wallets ktorory will not cost anything.
There is no way we can doubt that. Some of them are just solo, without much noise. It would not have taken them anything, to find a way to blend in knowing it is definitely worth the risk and most especially they are in a position to know if something will end up working or not and once they get a hold of that, they step in pretty fast.

So many of them are still going to come in and the poor will definitely just have to dig the scratch and find how they can enhance themselves better than someone else eventually.
452  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Bounty campagnes at the moment? on: October 19, 2017, 10:44:00 AM
Which ones look like they will do well? Which ones have the best rewards?
If you want to know a project that will do well, then look at the team and some of the achievements they have had on the project as well as their plans for the future. Since, you are joining bounties, it is best you also help the community by scanning to know the right one to join, so you don't end up advertising for scams.

However, there are so many of them and I believe you already know that, so just find the one you feel is available and works for you and worth investing your time.
453  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: 15.000 Euros, what shoul I do ? on: October 19, 2017, 07:47:51 AM
For me personally, investin into bitcoin is wise option as we can see bitcoin show promising value over 7 years and this year , bitcoin reach $ 5500 which is insane value and nobody can't expected that happen but that's the fact

Investing into ICO may more profitable but the risk are greater than bitcoin
This is really the wisest option I can ever consider. Altcoins are good, but sometimes, just focusing your attention on a single coin with more prospect and the first movers advantage with the largest market cap is just safer than gambling it into other altcoin.

ETH too aint bad as it has been solidly doing its thing, and with the upcoming upgrade might get something good coming. Every other investment into other altcoins should not be much at all.
454  Economy / Speculation / Re: Crazy Bitcoin UP TO 5000$ Please some one stop it on: October 19, 2017, 06:05:19 AM
when i check bitcoin price it is more than 5000$
 Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked

if price keep up more will keep hold and price up and up

who agree with me ?

I do agree with you. It is really fascinating to see Bitcoin's value continuously increasing. It surpassed the 5000-dollar mark and aiming for a higher price before this year end. Surely, huge profit will be to its user and investors if its value will be more expensive if the next hardfork in November will be successful. Holding at this moment is really necessary.

Indeed bitcoin is really unpredictable and good things now are happening to those who patiently wait for this. And some are really converting some of their bitcoin to fiat to somehow taste the moon and I think it's okay and just keep some decent amount for the upcoming hardfork so we can get bitcoin gold.
Why do you need the bitcoin gold? It is only in the beginning of his career so it will be a long time to gain the price. If you sell your bitcoins when the price will be high because everyone wants to get free bitcoin gold. Then you can buy more bitcoin gold and buy back the same amount of bitcoins.
And from all the look of things, I could not believe there can be someone who would think bitcoin gold will ever catch up with the value of bitcoin. It apparently will have the same fate as BCC or even worst. It might have a chance in the market and serve a purpose, after all some shitcoins do, but being able to catch up with bitcoin would be anyone's wildest dreams.
455  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin unstoppable now on: October 19, 2017, 03:58:17 AM
Bitcoin was unstopable since its introduction many years ago, as otherwise some governments or secret services surely would have already tried to stop it!  Cheesy

We will see if anyone will be able to stop this decentralized system one day and if not then good night to the fiat money system.
If only most people knew the many attempt that was made to bring bitcoin to its early grave in the past, and how it has still thrived till date, then they will know that bitcoin is unstoppable most especially at this stage. It is not even about dragging positions with fiat, it is just about liberating ourselves and allowing the decisions to be in our hands rather than being controlled by the government.

They can still make use of their fiat since not everyone will make use of bitcoin globally anyway, but for us who feel it is much better for us, then it is our luck.
456  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Bitcoin Gold, Price Speculation on: October 18, 2017, 02:49:03 PM
i think Bitcoin Gold, will rise to 2000 usd fast ... and bitcoingold better than bitcoincash for sure
Yes, Bitcoin gold is a better concept than bitcoin cash as more people are showing interest in it now and it has a better value than bitcoin cash. bitcoin gold has good price at its launch.

I think its price will increase at least 50% from the buy rate now. many big peoples have already invested in it and more are investing daily so you should also invest in it as it is a sure profit coin in my point of view and it will also be a good investment for new users. Bitcoin gold also has potential to become a famous and used coin the digital currency world.
457  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Altcoins Plunging on: October 18, 2017, 12:29:09 PM
All indicators show oversold zones and this levels are best to buy big amounts. Do your homework and find undervalued alts before hard fork.


I agree, let's do our homework because there are a lot of undervalued coins around this time which is before the fork. It's good to buy altcoins around this time too.
Bitcoin has made a great place in people's minds and hearts and now one else can take its place altcoin is also increasing its popularity very quickly but Bitcoin has already made its root in digital world and altcoin is still like a newbie.

I think in coming future there will be only trades of bitcoin and other currency trade will stop and altcoin will also be included in it as bitcoin is used by many people and has a stable value or place in digital world but it not the case with altcoin as people are just buying and selling it or converting it to bitcoin and than using it so its popularity is overthrown by bitcoin and no many people know about it as many people know bitcoin and trust it.
458  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What about Bitcoin gold?? on: October 18, 2017, 10:36:11 AM
As we all know another fork is coming. What do you guys think will it be successful like Bitcoin cash or it will be a waste of time?
Obviously just another waste of time and the whole fork will happen the same way we had the bitcoin cash.
Huge dumps of the coin will definitely happen once it arrives and hopefully they might have resources to try to pump it like BCC dudes did, but who knows? Like someone said, Fu*k all forked chains.

It seems altcoin industry is heading toward the trend of forked coins rather than creating new conceptual coins. I am not seeing this as a good improvement for altcoins industry.
459  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC speculation before fork on: October 18, 2017, 06:43:53 AM
It usually drops a bit right before the fork and rises after that. I wouldn't be surprised if we drop to less than $5000, but I expect to be at the $6000 mark, if not $7000, at the end of the year.
Your values may be correct, since that is the reason we call it speculations anyway.
460  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Bitcoin - new Business Opportunities on: October 18, 2017, 05:14:57 AM
Yes definitely, in fact many people has earned good amounts of profit in just a short amount of time more and more people are getting involved in this platform rather than fiat currency or investing in gold where you can earn quick money in ICO's, trading and lots of money making method. In fact bitcoin is a safe haven for long term investment and even surpassed gold recently. Bitcoin can be treated is an commodity or investment opportunity.
So many people have and so many people are still earning a lot daily from different forms of campaign and bounties.

Although, this is more like an employment opportunity, but a whole lot of business has sprung up since the development of bitcoin, such as having a gambling website, rendering services and collecting bitcoin, ecommerce accepting bitcoin as payment and so on and so forth. it is just to find where you can stay relevant and make good use of it.
