441  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How many hours a day are you spending on online gambling? on: September 08, 2018, 01:01:40 PM
I choose about 1 to 3 hours. because sometimes playing with low capital for a long time can be an option. in addition to providing a safe advantage gambling in a way that can anticipate a large loss and if let say its bad luck day it can become aware that the possibility of loss also exists.


yes, I think it is better to not stay at the gambling games if we don't want to lose all the money we have and I agree with you because we need to have that money for the next day if we still want to play gambling. besides that, like you say, we need to prevent a big loss that might happen in our game so we need to have a limit in time and money so we can quit the game directly. and if we can do this, I am sure that we can avoid getting a big loss if we only use the small money to place the bet.
If you continue to play with a lot of money, then you could definitely lose it all. Whatever it takes, you should set up limits. If you want to gamble, it's best just to have a budget and receive your winnings and accept losses. Do not be greedy and you will see the progress you are going to make. You will still have the chance of losing whether it's a small amount or not.
Limits are always good and it would be easy to set for those who already know that everything about gambling is just a game of luck and they should not even try to want to get more than they can chew in the long run from it. The reason why certain people get addicted is because they do not know how to control themselves, or they simply had the wrong mindset which led them to not thinking straight.

Gambling is more prone to losing and if anyone cannot take that, then they cannot be able to set any limit and they are the category of people that spend huge hours of the day in a casino.

Anonymous coins it is payment coins at the same time. Platform coins it is payments coins as well. I can say that payments coins - it is just coins without any additional features.
You are forgetting something that payment coin is really going to be a very competitive space in the long run and if you want to be investing in payment coins, you should know their biggest competitor is btc.

However, there are so many utility coins and coins that are based entirely on certain product usage which would be highly utilized in the long run, these are the coins, and I basically look at with more focus on exchange coins, considering the nature at which exchanges are going to be booming in the long run.
443  Economy / Economics / Re: Be Creative and Earn on: September 06, 2018, 11:43:12 AM
It is easy to do.  For the people who lives in western countries and or in legally used bitcoin nations.
Because it is normal to them to perform in streets to earn money.
You never can say until you try. The truth anyway is that creativity is always a very great way to make it huge in life and to always achieve great results in whatever you do. There are so many ways to be creative, serve a purpose and then earn money from it.

The thing though is that these days’ people are much more focused on finding just little ways to get rich fast without having to do much for it and they even tend to lose more at the end.
444  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: So surpridsed ! Bittrex delisted BTG on: September 06, 2018, 10:24:53 AM
So surprised again !

Sometime Bittrex make me so surprised exp delist BitShares BTS , and now BTG

The BTG markets (BTC-BTG, ETH-BTG and USDT-BTG) will be delisted and removed on September 14th, 2018



BTS is actually a coin I never expected would be delisted from bittrex anyway but they sure have their own reasons for it. BTG on the other hand still remains the fork of bitcoin which was not really necessary anyway, so delisting it may actually be something worth it.

However, so many decisions that bittrex has made in the past with respect to delisting of coins sometimes can actually be worth questioning as I still would not have seen the need for delisting it when considering there are so many shit coins listed on the exchange.
445  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to overcome my fear and how to start trading? on: September 06, 2018, 09:54:32 AM
Hi I am just new in the trading, I just want to ask how to overcome my fear in trading and what should I do to start trading. I also want to trade with a short term cause I need to earn daily for my daily needs can someone help me and give some that I used to start my trading now.


You should be brave and willing enough to take the risk in trading and investing. Better learn about all the basics of trading by eagerly learning all the fundamentals of it. Trading need a lot of braveness and patience so you better learn how to handle your emotions.
The main reason why a lot of people get scared is because they have no idea what they are doing and they are not patient enough to learn as much as they can as well as practice as much as they can before setting in with real life funds.

In cases like this, it is always good to be scared until you get it right, and during the process of getting it right, it is always important to never go in with real funds or probably try out what you can afford to lose. The truth is that after paper learning, the practical is another level of learning on its own and you want to be sure ready before you go in fully.
446  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Robot trading volume war on: September 05, 2018, 12:52:56 PM
I understand that people that own exchanges tries to change their volumes to look like they are really bigger than what they currently are but you fail to understand that if an exchange gets big enough that their volume is big so much that they can't themselves change the volume too much.

Look at binance and how much they have, I believe everyone who uses binance can testify that their volumes are incredibly high and volatile and they can't just tamper with that because it would require insane amount of money to change that volume. So what you are saying is only true to exchanges that are low on volumes already and you can just stay away from them.
447  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Patience is the most important thing on: September 05, 2018, 12:05:05 PM
The Perfect definition to earn to in crypto, never ever say oh! i missed that creepy pump. i made same mistake twice and got myself in big trouble. after that i made a mind that i will never buy any Bull trend. i always invest when market is downtrend.,
Unfortunately, this is one thing a lot of newbie traders do when it comes to cryptocurrency trading since they hopped into it without any trading knowledge whatsoever. This is what gives room to a lot of emotional trading, and not being able to know what to do at certain point in time.

For those who are able to learn, they simply will know when to be entering a market, exiting a market by either stopping or picking profit. Anyone who trades without a strategy is apparently gambling and such a person no matter what can never be patient.
448  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When do you know its time to Stop? on: September 04, 2018, 11:59:42 AM
I always start with a certain set amount and play until either thats gone or play until I am bored. For example if I start the game with 50$ to gamble and I end up finishing all of that before I got bored than I stop nevertheless, not try to recoup that at all. Usually I play like something smaller than 10 cents or so each bet so whenever I lose my money I only lose a small fraction of it and it takes a lot of time to lose all of it at which time I get bored anyway.

I don't know why people have hard time stopping. I think its not stopping thats the problem, if you run out of money you will stop no matter what.
The harder part is not starting, if you feel like you are not cut for gambling and you are gonna have hard time stopping than you should not even start. That not starting for wrong people is the true issue, they don't know what type of people they are and they gamble and fail to stop at the correct time. Learn to not start whenever you want before learning how to stop.


Thats right dude, people usually just start without knowing how to stop the game. there may be some players who allocate special funds so that it can stop them playing if the funds run out, but if you play emotionally you might use your main wallet to gamble again, so you should know how to stop using your own abilities dude!

Curiosity kills the cat that is what they say. The only thing that a person could do wrong is to start gambling because of others people influence, because he heard in the news that a certain person have won a big amount of fiat in gambling so he decided to give it a shot, believing he could also win something big like that. Being positive about things in life is not bad, but we have to make exceptions, and gambling is one of the things we shouldn't even try.

Gambling is so gamble, meaning you are risking something to get something, and that is money, you are risking money to get more money. The chances of winning in gambling depends on what game you are playing, for example you are playing lottery which the chances of winning is 1 out of 175 million.

That first point you raised is actually the reason why a lot of people ended up finding them gambling and just wish if only they could just have the same luck as that caliber of person you mentioned, while forgetting that among 100, there can only be 1 winner, with the rest 99 wallowing in self-pity.

As long as they understand they are risking something and can control their emotions and that urge, I believe even when they start hearing some voices to just try it one last time, they will discard it.
449  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to find if airdrop is fake on: September 04, 2018, 11:22:51 AM
I think many airdrops are fake, they are not paying. You can only knew if it is not a scam if they pay tokens as their promises.
Truth be told, so many people just put up some form of airdrops from projects and ask the gullible ones to drop their information, but what they are indeed doing is to gather all these information and sell to the highest bidder who will use it to distribute their spam.

One of the reasons some people get their mails spammed from the likes of airdrops, unknown ICOs and bounties is because their email address was bought by those who perpetrate themselves as project owners doing airdrops.
450  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Crypto Bull Run!!! on: September 04, 2018, 10:43:36 AM
ARE WE ENTERING A CRYPTO BULL RUN?!
(Don't sleep on the poll, your opinions matter!)

For the first time in the last few months, people seem to be acting positively about the cryptocurrency market. This is because, in the last couple of days, the market has risen at a surprising rate. On August 27 the global market cap was $215 Billion, on August 29 it is worth $232 Billion. That is nearly an 8% rise. It has lead people to question whether we are experiencing a bull run and how investors should prepare for it. The Financial Times defines a bull run as simply a time when prices rise on a financial market, so by those terms, this could be considered one — however, the question now is about whether traders should be treating it as such. It is one thing to say that we are in a bull run, but it is another to change your trading habits to accommodate for one.

BTCitcoin during the bull run

Bitcoin experienced two impressive jumps in price. One at the start of August 28 which brought it from $6,700 to $6,900, and another later in the day taking it from $6,900 to $7,000. This is in stark contrast to how Bitcoin was performing just one week ago.

The nature of Bitcoin’s rise has also brought other coins up. Ethereum, XRP, Litecoin, and most other cryptocurrencies are seeing the same bullish behavior. The fact that this rise in value is being experienced throughout most coins and tokens is certainly indicative of a bull run.

Not every cryptocurrency is so lucky

Out of the top 100 cryptocurrencies by market cap, there are only a handful of coins and tokens which are performing poorly, most of which are relatively unknown. Of the coins that are well-known, Nano is currently struggling to hold onto its gains from the previous days. WAVES is also stagnating in price (although at noon August 29 it has had a spike) and PIVX is moving negatively. On the note of PIVX, fans of the coin engaged in a debate with fans of its rival: Monero. You can find this debate on the cryptocurrency subreddit. While these coins are not doing their best right now, none of them are declining harshly.

As far as I am concerned, we are not even close to it at all. We might see some uptrend in the short term, but that would be nothing compared to a bull run as the sentiment in the market still favors bears a lot and we are not done with this no matter how optimistic everyone is in the market.

I hope that coming months might bring about some little bit of freshness into the market, as we see some good values attained, but at the same time, I would not bank so much on it so as not to end up screwed from too much optimism.
451  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Risk of scam ICOs is more during Bull phase on: September 03, 2018, 10:02:28 AM
ICO scam is a dangerous thing that happens regularly with the users. But all should know how to avoid them by following some easy steps like avoid malware download, avoid easy and unbelievable profit policy offers etc.
Either it is a bull phase or a bear phase, ICO scams are always usually there. However, it is understandable that the enthusiasm to make a lot of money from new investors mindset and the sentiments in the market during bull period makes it easy for the scam ICOs to get rampant and as many people are getting happy with the market, their judgments can somehow be clouded with a lot of newbies entering into the market within this period.
452  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Can i buy BTC using an internationl credit card? on: September 01, 2018, 08:39:52 AM
Using an international credit card (one that is issued in a country but is accepted in lots of countries), is there somewhere i can buy BTC?

edit: i mean without a middleman, no Paypal etc, i pay with the CC and the person or entity sends me the equivalent in BTC to the address i provide.
What do you mean by that? You mean MasterCard and VISA cards? You can use them to buy Bitcoin from lots of exchangers. I used to make use of my MasterCard card to purchase bitcoin when I was a newbie and then I was making use of Xapo wallet and Coinbase, but after sometime I decided not to use it again because its quite risky to me, then I started making buying from a local exchanger direct to my wallet… Seems much safe to me than exposing my card.
453  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Solution for your market problems. on: August 31, 2018, 10:45:20 AM
Why would these two chains that you mentioned can be the solution? I believe for every problem there is a solution but what does these two chains will do for the existing problem that we're currently facing?

And have you determined the problems that you have to solve?
Sometimes I find it jokingly amusing to see some projects trying to paint what they cannot even handle until they hit the ball running and reality starts kicking in. At least, I know of MFChain that is building the most cost-effective cryptocurrency payment ecosystem that rewards the consumer as well as the merchant but this is not something new and if this is the only solution that the OP is painting here as something huge, they have not even started yet.

It is not just about saying something, it is about doing. Although, they have a strong team, vision and product available, but until we start seeing the real life usage being effective before we can start saying if the solution is at hand or not.
454  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Finally I Say TerraNova Is SCAM :) on: August 31, 2018, 10:08:32 AM
It Started Jumping 3 BTC at One or two days.(year Ago)
Then got Dummped. Again Jumped near around 1 BTC then again Bumped . now its 13K Satoshi .

I have also purchased 5 coin when it was 0.03  Sat but now only regret n nothing else.

Pls Stay Safe.
This is not even a matter of staying safe, this is absolutely a manipulation going on in this market and probably same person trying to buy and at the same time sell so as to be able to fool people like you into believing a moon is taking place.

Stuffs like this happen once in a while since this is a decentralized space anyway and for the fact that you are seeing such a huge volatility, it is something you should have been very much used to. Nonetheless, Terranova is absolutely not a project I would even want to smell, let alone trade or hold.
455  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Why Do People Dump Their Precious Tokens With Ridiculous Low Price on: August 31, 2018, 08:29:11 AM
When the project is nice and a token is good and its potencial is great in the future I can not afford to buy my tokens at a cheap price.
You cannot afford to buy your tokens at a cheap price if it has potentials? Or you are trying to say you cannot afford to sell. There will always be weak hands in the market and some who would not mind to sell their tokens at a very low price and until those weak hands are out.

A lot of people blame the bounty hunters for dumping at any cost since they do not really understand the real value of the coin during ICO anyway. These are the caliber of weak hands we talk about, and most whales usually start the dumping process just to buy at a much lower price eventually.
456  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why martingale is PURE SHIT. on: August 30, 2018, 12:25:54 PM
Most these strategies don’t work. This is just another such example where logic is impeded by greed.
Logic impeded by greed indeed. Everything about trying to find a strategy all balls down to people or gamblers consoling themselves on a solution that can work and a reason to gamble further.

Logically and in reality, gambling is meant to make the gambler lose money, otherwise it would never be a profitable venture for the casino or gambling platform owners and I believe that is one thing a lot of greedy gamblers do not get to think about before they go ahead gambling.
457  Economy / Marketplace / Re: LOOKING TO INVEST MY LIFE SAVINGS NEED ADVICE on: August 30, 2018, 11:54:50 AM
for investment then you can use the advice of some people from the people here, I suggest you buy as much bitcoin as you can by buying bitcoin you also participate for investment.
The only advise that is necessary for anyone who is trying to invest his life savings is to know what he is doing exactly and also understand this space is not a get rich quick scheme and if that is the mentality is coming in with to invest his whole life savings, then, he is already threading on the wrong part.

A lot of people keep investing and getting greedy for the wrong reasons, but really, the idea is to be investing in the future, and if you have to do that, you will still need to consider the risk involved as well first to be able to have a concrete info for making your decisions.
458  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why I am buying bitcoins - and why I am keeping them. on: August 30, 2018, 11:22:16 AM
I really agree with you if you want to get a lot of profit so you should be able to buy as much bitcoin as you can because bitcoin is always experiencing a price increase.
Knowing when to buy is also a good knowledge needed to at least gain some advantage in the market. So many people often do not get that fact that; you can end up buying the dip and the market can end up going deeper.

It is either you understand that the long term prospect is intact and you buy more of the dips with a lot of patience if you have the chance or you just simply end up making terrible mistake by expecting too much as regards getting rich fast. The idea is to be a part of the future of payment, which I feel everyone should be paying more attention to than just the profit.
459  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: 7 Difficulties for a trader on: August 30, 2018, 10:38:23 AM
the starting point of a trader is number 7. It's hard not to be greedy. because of this all will cause us to lose everything because there is no sense of satisfaction if we are greedy
It is never hard as long as you have a strategy and you stick with it. There is never any way the market will not give you a signal of when to be getting in or when to be selling as well as when to be stopping losses. However, all these are decisions that can only be made with knowledge.

And for a fact, not everyone sure have that. Greed only comes into play if all a trader is doing is gambling. Once you are able to stick with your strategy and make that a principle, you will be surprised at the way you make good decisions.
460  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Everyone loses money when the market is down right? on: August 29, 2018, 07:34:11 AM
Not everyone but maybe 70% to 85% of all the investors and holders. Why I said that because there are many professional traders and brokers around and they might have read the outcome of cryptocurrencies this year and sold all of their coins before the crash happened. They might also lost some but I'm sure that their gains still dominates.
Bear market is always an opportunity for professional traders who simply have the swing strategy style of trading. It may be a bit hard for day traders to trade a volatile bear market which is why so many day traders rather prefer to stay clear the market during some periods than trying to trade the market at that point in time.

The bad thing however, is that a lot of people in the space trade with little or no knowledge, and for a bear market, that would be the worst for them to ever trade.
