441  Economy / Economics / Re: Legalizing Bitcoin on: November 13, 2017, 07:24:26 AM
I think bitcoins are legal in most countries. If there is no law saying it is illegal then you can be sure that it is legal in your country. Actually something just becomes illegal if there is such a law saying it is. But since most countries have not even created laws or any of their existing ones saying the use of bitcoins is indeed illegal. So the point is that right now the laws of the world does allow bitcoins, so we do not have to worry about it legally speaking.
442  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin is Freedom on: November 13, 2017, 07:14:29 AM
I believe bitcoin is freedom, freedom in terms of policy and rules. We can make any transactions, deposit and withdrawal as fast we could. Bitkoin is freedom because of its ease of use and security.

We actually make our own rules because it's decentralized and no one can control on our desired purpose of our transaction.
This gives us real freedom because unlike banks who can freeze our transaction when it's against the law bitcoin seems to best payment system to those who like to launder money. This freedom has alarm the government so they will regulate bitcoin especially the exchanges to monitor illegal transactions.

That is why bitcoins are revolutionary and the world will soon know how much benefits can it bring about to them. The ability to use money without control coming from any centralized authority is a power we should have been given since money was invented. I am not saying we should be the ones controlling it by our own whims but really bitcoins has given us this freedom because there is a given limits and mechanism  to its use.
443  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: All coins are now dying, what do you think? on: November 12, 2017, 03:30:06 AM
That is true, but right now is the best time to buy those cheap altcoins. Prices are so low that likely everybody who buys now will profit from most altcoins. Look at how much BCH has grown in the past two days. Right now I am eyeing on DOGE and I think it will pump as well, and probably back to 100+ sat levels and if it does that will be x5 my investment since I bought it from 18-20 sats each.
444  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy BTC at 6500 or wait to go lower? on: November 12, 2017, 03:19:15 AM
Right now, I think the best option to do is just wait, seems like it will go down by a lot and prices will even reach back to $5,500 probably. Maybe invest your bitcoins on other altcoins for now like DOGE which is really low. I've done so and invest probably about half a bitcoin on DOGE since it has been low for the past weeks and has even reached an all time low. Probably it will pump to 120 sats again in the next few weeks.
445  Economy / Economics / Re: Worst bitcoin decision you've ever made? on: November 12, 2017, 03:14:48 AM
For me the worst decision I made was to gamble away 3 bitcoins worth back in 2013. However, back then those bitcoins were just worth $900 or just about $300 per bitcoins. Well, if I just kept them with me then I would have been rich by $21,000 by now. Too bad, I never really expected that the price will bump up this high because if I did, I would have just hoarded and hodl on to my bitcoins.
446  Economy / Economics / Re: Where do massive amounts of unconfirmed mempool transactions come from? on: November 12, 2017, 03:04:12 AM
To be honest, I think someone is really just attacking the network to prove a point that we really need an upgrade. It's either that or the network is indeed congested because of the sheer number of transactions per day. However, I don't think that is indeed the case, since sometimes the network just suddenly becomes empty, probably because the attacker's transactions has reached the point that it was all simultaneously dropped. Well, I hope to read an expert's opinion on the matter.
447  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Any tricks available in gambling to won the bet? on: November 10, 2017, 10:03:08 AM
Honestly I don't know any tricks in gambling, because everything what I do I can't win anymore in gambling.
Definitely I solve many problems to get a tricks in dice roll, but I can't do even I made many experiment I can't get good result.
Maybe you just only need to trust in your luck to know if you win in the game.

That is predictable. For sure you will lose on any gambling site if you use a strategy or trick. Because in reality there is no such thing that could win you consistently in any gambling site or gambling game. Generally, that is how gambling works. The house edge may be small in one glance but in reality this is a big percentage and will likely prevent anyone to win in the very long run. You can probably win a few bets at the start but if you do, make sure to take it home.
448  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bitcoin Sports books on: November 10, 2017, 09:32:00 AM
Just curious if anybody has had any real success with bitcoin only sports books?

Thanks

Likely there are people that got success with it, I don't think it is any different with other sports book gambling sites out there. Also be reminded that even big sports books like 5dimes and other popular online sports books are already accepting bitcoins as a way to deposit into the their platform. So, I believe there could not be any doubt that someone has already won big in sports book gambling.
449  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does experience matter in gambling? on: November 10, 2017, 06:37:24 AM
There are some types of gambling that needs experience like when you are betting for some teams like basketball,baseball etc.
You need to have some experience in analyzing teams so that you can have a greater odds in winning.

Correct and this is the best type of gambling game that when you have more knowledge and skills, you have more chances of winning. Unlike games that are based on pure luck where skills and experienced really doesn't play a big role of your winning.
This form of gambling requires you to be smart in order to win, there is no house edge so if you have the skills you can make consistent income here.
Make sure you have a decent bankroll so you'll not wasting your time, when you are confident and you believe you can have the success then you should be ready to risk a decent amount of money for better return.

I could not agree more with you mate. I can still vividly remember, this time with trading, when I was able to get to learn how to trade wisely, I already had several winning trades but with only a few coins traded - and when I get the hang of it and deposited a good amount of bankroll and just apply what I did with small bankroll, I was able to quadruple my income in a similar amount of time.

Because that is trading, that is quite different from gambling. In gambling, no amount of skill or experience can change the outcome of any roll, and that is a fact. Unlike in trading, the more experience and skill you get, it would result to a lot more profit since trading is a from of business and the intention is really to profit. Unlike in gambling, where the only goal is to entertain one's self.
450  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Worst mistake in gambling on: November 10, 2017, 06:28:55 AM
Honestly, i dont know how to gamble. I was trying to play in freebit.co.in at bitsler but then i always end up for nothing. Even if i know the tricks, maybe its not my line.
That is good, don't learn to gamble here you will not learn anything. only you will lose your money.

So find any other thing to kill your free time it is good for you and your family.
Better advice you just have given here. Actually we all here and others who are gambling practically in the field, must learn one fact about it. Gambling is not for making money and this is like a universal thing. You can’t expect to earn from gambling at any case else you are more than a foolish person. Keep engaging yourself in some other thing like you just advised here.

That is true and there is indeed no exception to it. Gambling is not for income generation for gamblers, it is the business of the casinos to make a profit. Unless you are invest into the casino or you open your own then there is no way a gambler can profit from the casino. Generally this is because statistically the casino has a statistical advantage over the players and that is a fact we cannot change.
451  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Poker v Other casino games online on: November 10, 2017, 06:20:50 AM
We all know how much bitcoin users love dice but I think even poker websites ( bitcoin supporting sites ) also generate same or even more revenue than dice sites . Do you guys play only dice or only poker or both using bitcoins ?

I disagree with the statemet though, I think Dice is overall the most played game using cryptocurrency, probably next to it is slots or sports betting. Dice has the most number of gambling site and the most number of players.

For me, I play plinko, blackjack and sports betting aside from dice.
452  Economy / Gambling / Re: gambling with playing poker on: November 10, 2017, 05:49:52 AM
I want to ask if one of these forum users ever played gambling poker with bitcoin bets? Is there an app for android phone? What is the minimum balance that must be owned? Thank you in advance.

If you use Telegram, you can add our chatbot to your contact.
She provides poker games and you can try for free(use /faucet command in the bot).

Use BTC:
https://t.me/SparrowPoker_BTC_bot

or prefer Litecoin:
https://t.me/SparrowPoker_LTC_bot

and here's our website if you needed
https://sparrowcasino.github.io

Wow, a gambling game on telegram, and it's poker too. To be honest with every casino that has been making games for chat apps (as well as those developers that are creating games for the facebook messenger), it's quite annoying to see those things on chats. For the likes of me, I only installed those apps for the sole purpose of chatting and not really looking for casinos on there. If I wanted to gamble, a browser is accessible on a pc, mac or mobile.

I do understand your opinion.
One of my friends hates any other functions on chat app but chat.

So we keep our bots as quiet as they can.
They won't proactive send any notification that bothers you unless it is a bank-related information.

It's just another style.  Cheesy

It's still an annoying add on to any chat program, in my opinion. Well maybe everybody do no share the same opinion and you might hit a niche for people that like this. But generally, like what I've said before, if I wanted to gamble, I would open my browser and gamble on really good casinos with mobile versions than use chat bots. Good luck with your bot though.
453  Economy / Gambling / Re: What is the best bitcoin casino? on: November 10, 2017, 05:45:56 AM
Stake.com is the best. Wink Best Support, best chat and games.. You will have fun.

It's nice to play there since the owners and admins are the same people behind primedice, one of the most respected pioneers in bitcoin gambling. What's nice with stake.com is that they have pretty unique games to play with and some of them can't be seen in other gambling sites. For casino games and dice though, I would always go with fortune jack as it is the best one for me.
454  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: List of popular Betting Strategies on: November 10, 2017, 05:40:29 AM
betting strategies don't work recent times tennis has also been so unpredictable and even football i am seeing all the good teams losing or getting a draw even when that hasn't happened before. it better to quit betting also

I think so too. There isn't really any strategy that has consistently worked for any kind of gambling. Specially those martin gale methods that are regularly used in dice games and other similar games. That's basically a sure lose in the long run since statistically a gambling game will ave an negative expected value. That is because most gambling sites have a house edge and that is why a strategy will never win in the long run.
455  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and Superstition on: November 10, 2017, 05:32:42 AM
I know few person that is very superstition specially in gambling.they do more actions,giving foods to the Gods they believe can help them to win.not doing this..that before going to gamble.but for me its all about luck.if your not lucky that time.lossing is on your way.so my answer is i dont believe in such
Everyone of us has our own belief in order to win in gambling, I know being superstitious may sound weird for others but we are gambling with our own money so we have the freedom to do what we believe that could increase our chances of winning. This is only applicable in a luck based games and also it's only good for short term as we know luck is not consistent.
Yeah superstitious will work for a while but we can't solely rely on it because we know that in gambling we are not always sure if we will win or not. And I think there is nothing wrong if we believe with superstitious and nothing will happen to us if we believe with it, its the same as we are hoping to win with the help of luck.

Where did you theorize that superstitions work for a while or even consider it to work? There is no such thing as a working superstition. It is just something people think that works but it was just mere coincidence that it worked at the time they brought with them whatever superstitious item like a rabbit's foot. It doesn't work all the time, ti was mere coincidence and that should stay that way. People should stop believing in these kinds of things.
456  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: losing 50 bitcoins gambling on: November 10, 2017, 05:19:54 AM
I definitely feel frustrated losing 50 btc in that way makes me feel disappointed because imagine how I earn that 50 btc just about to lose it in a gambling method because you know the feeling when you lose something important and don't  get something in returned that's  frustrating. Well to cope up with it is just work harr again and try and forgot everything  what happened.

Who wouldn't? I don't think even a rich person would be glad that he lost that much bitcoins. Well, if you are a multimillionaire that was nothing to him so we can't really argue with them. That's like spare change to them. But for the likes of many of us, that is a huge number of bitcoins that we can't even say that we can even earn that much in our lifetime. But that's the inequalities of the world we live in.
457  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Games of skill best practice on: November 10, 2017, 05:15:30 AM
About the address, provide an address for each one of the participants so there would be any problems of the participants claiming to own whatever transaction ID they want. Less problems for everybody.

About the game, I am not sure these kinds of games are really popular with people and I think there is little interest in them since it requires skill to play and not just plain luck. If, for example, you game is chess. If a grand master of chess joins, then it would severely undermine everybody since the skill level of that person is quite above everybody else and will likely win the whole game. That will cause people to be skeptical in joining your game.

You should just buy it off your own market, it's hairy business to deal with online people with just a simple thing like a phone. It would likely be a lot faster and cheaper as well. Also if you go to most physical stores that sell second hand phones or brand new ones, you can check the quality of the phone you're buying and hence you can decide much better than just looking at pictures online that were sent by an online seller.
459  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What happend with BTC? BTC is going down under 7000 USD. on: November 10, 2017, 05:04:04 AM
It's just a normal occurence, bitcoins will eventually go down since it has really gone up by a lot. But I won't panic right now if I were you, since this is normal it is just correcting. It will still go up in the near future and will likely break another all time high. I estimate it to reach $10,000 before the end of the year, but right now it is the time for alts. Since alts all went down by a lot, there are so much cheap alts that people can buy.

I wish these SOB bankers shut up. They don't keep on commenting on bitcoins because they nothing about it but they just keep on blabbering shit about bitcoins. Remember when the bankers said shit about bitcoins then suddenly a big bank just bought loads of bitcoins when the prices went down? Yeah, those bankers are hypocrites. They say shit about it and in the end the bank that they work for just bought loads of it.
