441  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To quit gambling is to quit yourself on: April 21, 2018, 12:46:16 PM
Guys, I know that many of you have already discussed this issue regarding quitting gambling as it is addictive, and I know that this thread is just like any other one. But forgive me because I am really sick of seeing people committing suicide because they are in big debts. I would like to speak my mind.

So, guys. Quitting gambling has to be done by quitting yourself. What I mean by that statement is that you should no longer be yourself or what you are. You are now a man of greed and addiction. Who was the person you were before you start gambling? Perhaps you were addicted to something else. Perhaps you were just a normal man living a normal life. Now you are a different person. What I want you to do is that you should be aware that gambling too much will make you lose yourself. Second off, you should sit with yourself and write down the negative effects of gambling. Do not be like "What if I win next time, what if I get lucky next time." No, that is not you who is talking but your greed. Do not give yourself false hopes because "What if" is a term used to talk about unreal action in the past or the future. You can neither change the past nor be accurate about what future will be like.

Then you should practice positive self-talk. Fill yourself with positiveness. Have a strong willpower and determination because believe me, once you are committed to something, you will attain it. If you want to give up gambling, then you can do it because other people and I gave it up.
I used to gamble a lot with my friends and I would be lying if I said I did not learn many things. But the negative effects overcame the positive ones. I took a decision to stop gambling. I filled my time with various activities. In time, I started to forget about gambling. It is like moving on. If you want to move on, get yourself from the routine you used to be in. Your brain is functioned about a certain routine. You will find it hard to adapt to the new routine, but believe me, in time you will get used to it.

I hope you guys achieve what you aspire. And I hope this thread will help you, even though I am sure I am going to get negative feedback. But it is okay, I am open to everything. Have a lovely day, Hadoooken!

I totally agree to your wall of text. If you want to gamble be responsible and not make the people around you to suffer with you also, when you win maybe people around you like your wife or son might have a good life for few days but when you lose all you have and you start to borrow from people money they will be living in hell. You can gamble but please gamble by not affecting people around you, when you start gambling you either win or lose but eventually in the end you will still lose back what you win and much more if not why there is not much betting platforms from online to offline.


You are absolutely right and of think why one sinks in debts. The main problem is gambling because one can lose a lot of money in seconds while earning such a huge amount is not so easy. When they see no way to recover his loses he commit suicide. It means that the result of gambling is the end of life. I don’t agree with this that quitting gambling is to quit yourself.
442  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will the price be stable or increase 2018 midle to last? on: April 21, 2018, 12:29:34 PM
I will buy more Dogecoin to be able to buy more Marinecoín (.MTC.) at their F1CX Exchange.I recently found this community based project and participated in their Proof of Promotion airdrop, and since their approach for true decentralization, not relying on miners with extremely low energy consumption for maintaining the network, as a DEV-less self-sustaining AI powered crypto-currency looks really promising to me, I want to procure more coins.There is not much going on at their exchange right now, with the DGE/.MTC. pair having the most liquidity, but this is because the airdrop is currently paused. So first I am going to buy more Dogecoins to transfer them to my account at the F1CX exchange, then I will just wait for the right time to be able to snatch more Marinecoíns.The airdrop is supposed to resume shortly with changed rules for better community interaction, and to hold off the scammers and prevent simply grab & dump.That already time tested project with a history leading back to 2013 has just recently been rebooted, and I really would like to encourage everybody who is interested in something that’s going to make a difference to take a look. With Dogecoin and .MTC. prices low, there surely is no better time to get started.
The topic is not about marinecoin or blockchain or MTC. Al the people know what coin is better and what wallet is good. I feel that the price will increase more and more in the coming days because it is already on the way up and till the mid of the year it will cross 10000 dollars and till the end of the year I guess that the price will hit 20000 dollars. Let’s wait for some time.
443  Economy / Economics / Re: What do you prefer Bitcoin or Ethereum ? on: April 20, 2018, 10:26:50 AM
Both are good coins but main advantage of Bitcoin is not controlled by anyone, so no fear of developer dumping it. But in case of Ethereum developer is holding a chunk of stack and developer itself dont have belief on cryptocurrency. Bitcoin price wont die as 90% of cryptocurrency followers are holding it and using it in life.
I will go for these both options too. Reason is, bitcoins are amazingly growing and ETH as well. They both have been marked as best coins in the crypto families, where ETH is best in altcoin family specifically. But still it is all about the knowledge and technical use of the trader or investor that how he will be managing these both so that profits can be earned at the end of day.
444  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Patience is the key on: April 20, 2018, 09:57:37 AM
As a matter of fact, it is very few number of noobs in the cryptocurrency business that understand the level at which patience is required and valuable in the business. I do tell my friends around me that wish to come in to the business “it’s only patience ones that would feed from the milk of a lion” . I bought some coins few weeks ago, which I decided to hold while it was dipping but I keep holding with zero fear and absolute patience. Presently, i’m In over 47% profit in all. My advice to my colleagues is all you need is buy into coins with good potential and relax even while it’s at dip. Trust me, you won’t live to regret anything if only you would be able to hold with patience. Thanks
The thing is a lot of people these days want to get rich fast and as a result they must have gotten greedy at some point and most especially since they do not have the knowledge how the space even works. It is not new and the only set of people who always get the best of the market as long term investors are those ones with a lot of patience. As long as you know that what you hold is a strong coin with potentials, worry is always going to be the last thing.
445  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin will have a price of $50000 on: April 19, 2018, 10:47:10 AM
I'm sure it will happen. And the price of $ 50,000 is not at all the maximum. Most likely in 1-2 years we will be able to witness such prices

Of course not! In a year or two we will see a new crypto currency, more modern. Maybe one of them will cost $ 50,000.
Even if we see many new crypto coins, I don’t think so any of them will have this much potential to compete with bitcoin as you have seen so many crypto coins coming after bitcoin but none of them have this much of reputation and the market value as is of bitcoin. I am very much sure that bitcoin will have market value more than that of 50k $ but this will take little time and we need to be patient.
446  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When do you know its time to Stop? on: April 19, 2018, 10:10:35 AM
Easy, it's time to stop when you win or loss too much but even if you do know about it. It's hard to stop the feeling even if you know it will cause no good. Having a limit in win and loss is good but much better if you can control your emotions because if not you will exceed or break the limit you've set. Feeling confident on win and frustrated on loss, both is hard to control.
I like the part of you adding winning too much. We actually concentrate more on losing too much than winning too much maybe because most people have never experienced a huge win in gambling anyway, which I am not surprised.

As much as you have a limit and once you hit that limit in losses, you call it a day, is the same way we should always be able to put a huge full stop when you hit a big amount already, but greed most of the time always make some people to want to keep trying more until they still end up losing everything.

Greed is the actual culprit for people unable to stop. The greed starts from expecting too much than normal from gambling. Just like you painted it by stating profit, a lot of people consider gambling as a way to invest their money and that is more like the most stupid level of thinking I can ever imagine. It is not hard to apply, as long as you believe gambling is not out to give you anything positive most of the time, you will always know when to stop and not to expect too much from it, otherwise you will be soaked in debt before you even know it.
In my honest opinion, any time when this question of stopping playing further appears in the mind of a gambler, he should instantly execute it. There is no need to wait for the right time because anytime is the right time. The earlier it is, the better it would be for gambler.

Still if someone wants to discover that point after which the loss could be fatal, it is when he would exceed his limits and like you said, greed is the controller here.
447  Economy / Economics / Re: If the government supports bitcoin instead of the existing currency. on: April 18, 2018, 12:40:59 PM
It depends on the type of government. If a country is a capital outflow, then it is difficult to support Bitcoin, a country is a capital inflow country, then it is likely to support Bitcoin. At this stage, Bitcoin is the most effective tool to bypass the government's capital blockade, so it is inevitable that some countries will support it, and some countries will oppose it.
If we generally talk about the governments of different countries, then most of the governments are not showing positive response and that for now, they are not going to treat crypto currencies just like the way they are treating other regular currencies. in case this thing ever happens, then this will surely help you out and that the demand of the crypto currencies will then be greatly increased.

They know bitcoin can vanish the corruption and bank frauds and many thing will be regulated in a better way. But none of the goverment people and politicians looks that to happen in the live market.
We need to make the bitcoin legal in every country to stop the US and UK colenial rule from this world. After the world war ends also still we are seeing the market ruling with the corporates and banking attacks still on every countries. I believe bitcoin will make the everyone in the same standard.
The reason that many governments do not take interest in bitcoin and are not going to legalize it is that they have no control over bitcoin and they can never find how much money one have because this is a big disadvantage of bitcoin that the underworld and black money holders will use bitcoin for their black money and by this way they will hold the whole economy of the country.
448  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To quit gambling is to quit yourself on: April 18, 2018, 12:11:04 PM
It's not going to be easy even the addicted gambler wants to. He should have a support system like parents or family that will make him stronger mentally and emotionally so that he can fight the urge of gambling and finally end that worst chapter of his life.

Yeah, but quitting is the only way to have a better future and to save money. There is no reason for anyone to continue to play gambling if he is losing most of the time, he must be smart and considering all the things before he decides what to do next in gambling. I've witnessed myself losing a lot of money in gambling, and continuing is so confusing to do that is why I've decided to quit gambling instead and try another way to earn money.

I agree. I was also losing a lot of money before and even though I thought of quitting, the impulse to play was still there - that is why I really understand how others find it really difficult to quit. It was only when I finally realized that I already have a son and that I need to take care of his future when the realization and the greater urge to finally quit kicks in and the rest is history Smiley
No gambler can quit gambling on his own because it has become a universal truth and we can easily observe that from every gamblers story. However, when the gambler tries to leave this gambling on his own, his love for the gambling increases then it was before because he starts thinking about the advantages of gambling which are obviously crated by his own as there are no advantages of gambling.
For this reason, I think this gambler must encourage himself to leave. He must enlightens the issues and problems that he would be facing if he continues his gambling activities. There will be no other person who can do this, only the gambler has this aptitude to think better for himself. Try to conquer the addiction of gambling and leave it as soon as possible, only then you may have a good life.
Yeah you are right. An addicted gambler can never quit gambling because gambling is like drugs and as drug addicted person never give off drugs, same a gambler cannot quit gambling. But I think that gambler should gamble in in his limits and when he know that know I am losing, he should quit at once and try his luck some other time. It will be better for him.
449  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: is buying new listed coin profitable? on: April 18, 2018, 11:37:37 AM
In most cases it can be profitable to buy coins when they are just listed, just for a sort term trading. Usually when a coin gets listed on a good exchange there's a huge 1st green candle and then the price drops down, sometimes even below ICO price, so it can be a very good moment to buy it, because in most cases there will be another green candle where you can sell the coins and get a good profit. Of course, it's quite risky but if you have some experience you can understand when it's the right moment to buy and sell.
Lots of people want quick result or even wait for some time but for many years and launching new currency means waiting for a long time. Who I should invest in such a currency which price is less than 0.00000001 dollars. It means that I have wasted my time and money. Finally I conclude that never invest in new currency,. Authentication is also an issue with new currency.
450  Economy / Speculation / Re: Good time to invest at $7,000? on: April 17, 2018, 11:39:19 AM
Yes good time to invest .. And as of now the price grow fast from 6 to $8100 and perhaps it will surge now because if some positive news nowadays , but it depends always,  unless if those whales and etc didn't interrupt on this up trend 'cause it will collapse again for sure..  But I'm not hopping for it. Lol  so instead let's celebrate to welcome the bull.  
This is the time for real celebration because we have waited so long for making bitcoin come to this point and start increasing in value. There is no way for bitcoin to come down in value now because it has already dumped for so long that too damn bad. This is the time of happiness for the supporters of bitcoin because their favorite coin has started a journey for the recovery of its high prices.
451  Economy / Economics / Re: Why is the world economy is sliding down? And how bitcoin may help it? on: April 15, 2018, 11:11:05 AM
I don’t think Bitcoin can help the world economy in anyway, the only thing it can do is help the individuals that invests their time and money into it. Bitcoin can even pose as a threat to some people who are not smart enough, cause the price can be manipulated; to be sincere, it could.

We all do say that bitcoin's price rate is determined by the rate of investment, but when someone brings up that the price can be manipulated through that way we all denies it, while it’s true, just because we are afraid to accept the truth. Someone can invest a huge amount of money and make the price to go up to a very high price just in favor of them.
452  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do you encourage friends and family to invest in crypto? on: April 15, 2018, 10:38:50 AM
Yes, I will encourage them to invest in Bitcoin. I have a lot of knowledge of investing in Bitcoin and I think I can teach them. I'm also doing this. Blockchain technology is very popular in my country, and we have access to Dapp applications. The blockchain is changing the world. We should let more people know.
That is great because this can help them financially more than they could ever imagine. Bitcoin is the future of money and the most beneficial investment created so far.It has made people millionaire within a decade and anyone who also wants to be one of them, he must grab this golden opportunity. Now is the right time to buy this coin as it is going through a dip. Buy low, sell high and enjoy life.
453  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Scam in the name of BITCOIN on: April 12, 2018, 12:02:20 PM
It’s not really easy, just like what happened to me day before yesterday – I was surfing the web and immediately I was automatically moved to a page that claims that I should complete a survey and stand a chance of winning an iPhone X or something different, after filling the survey I was told to pay $1. I checked people’s reviews and all the reviews were claiming that it was legit and some were like `I got my iPhone X today… I didn’t need anyone to tell me it’s scam. No one would be giving out iPhone X for free to millions of people online, man it’s not a toy.

Scam does not only happen in the crypto industry, it happens everywhere. So I don’t know why people will be blaming Bitcoin whenever they are scammed. Bitcoin wasn’t the reason why they were scammed, it was due to their own stupidity.
454  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Day trade or Hodling on: April 12, 2018, 11:28:06 AM
Day trade is not suitable for everybody, only experienced traders can do it in a better way. But low when the price is down and hold. It would be better option.
Day trading is good and also investment is good but need your experience. If you are knowledgeable about both trading and investment then choose investment apart from the money you have. Savings are less then start trading and if savings are huge then go towards investment and especially Bitcoin investment because here you will get a lot of huge outcome. Furthermore and moreover the popularity if Bitcoin is very and the demand for it is high so your investment can not be failed.
455  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling: Culture on: April 11, 2018, 11:57:25 AM
The gambling seems indeed it can be said as a culture even around the world, because the gambling in all the country and it’s hard to lost as a culture of traditional a tribe of a nation that can not be lost
But wherever it is a cultural element, it is considered as disrespect and dishonesty. In our cultures, this gambling isn’t considered as part of goodwill rather people start hating those who are gambling. Even here in our country, this is law to sentence those people who are caught at any stage being involved in gambling thing. So don’t get near to it rather keep it at arm’s distance.
456  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trader Future life? on: April 11, 2018, 11:27:13 AM
Traders life is really challenging the freedom is within. Capable to do wha's the best to earned money all throughout in trading. Able to manage the time and can understand truly the risks in trading. Lastly, trader's future life is good as long you know how to handle to gain profit.
These all things would be amazing to listen and read, but you know it’s really not easy task to do so. Things are quite complicated in this scenario too but whosoever have patience in his work, would be shining in this world. Here, everything is related to decision making either you are short term or longer. No matter, but what matters is how your mind perceives everything and then control your emotions.
457  Economy / Speculation / Re: falling at a price of $ 6k on: April 10, 2018, 12:36:44 PM
But anyway., a prediction, it doesn't just depend on predicting price through price fluctuations graph, it's still a lot of things out there that will affect it unexpectedly. In my opinion personally, I think it will be at $7k upwards within the next week.
The market is done with correction almost and this is the time for coins to increase in values as much as they can. As far as bitcoin is concerned, it is since holding the largest market and since it is the biggest giant of the market, the progress shown by it would be little slow but the end results would be amazing. Bitcoin is the most successful and trusted virtual currency of this crypto land. Support it to peak.
458  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: bitcoin prices not rising! should we trade or hold? on: April 10, 2018, 12:04:25 PM
the bitcoin price is stable, then why you are planning to sell? just hold it. you will get big profit. Yeah,there is risk. Without taking risk you cant earn anything
Selling out at the moment would become a regret tomorrow. Everyone is aware of the present condition of whole digital market. It is bleeding but it is also a fact that it can go green anytime. After all, this is how it works. Coins gain value, they lose it and the cycle goes on allowing investors to buy the desired crypto currency at low rates and sell it out whenever prices are high.
You will regret if you will sell at a lose, not all the time we see a market that is progressive, we are in crypto and everything can be too risky here
and whales have the power to manipulate, what is happening is that people panic when there is  FUD and FOMO when big money coming in.
Selling out is an action that is supposed to be take whenever a good amount of profit can be earned through it and definitely, that happens whenever bitcoin is  in pump phase. We all know the current condition of not only bitcoin but the whole digital market. Selling out now would become a big regret tomorrow when bitcoin will recover and touch 30k to 40k dollars. Plus, holding involves zero work.
459  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I'm so happy this is happening! on: April 07, 2018, 12:44:48 PM
I have only one year since I am into the cryptocurrency world and the first thing I have to learn is to have patience. For sure holding bitcoin is one thing we will be happy for doing it
Patience is the key to success rather earning big profits with the help of bitcoin. It is good as a long term investment. The longer you will hold your coins, the bigger will be the profits. Now it is totally up to you whether you want to make small amount out of it or become rich once and for all. However, there is no doubt in one thing and that is bitcoin has a bright future and can make people millionaire.
460  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will the history repeat again? on: April 07, 2018, 12:14:27 PM
This trends about the bitcoin currency just proves that it is so volatile and its value is ever changing. What will happen can be predictable but no one will know what will happen.
This is the whole reason behind it grabbing this much fame and attention of big investors from all over the world. It is the most fluctuating and potential digital coin the world knows. When it starts making progress, even crypto experts fail to tell the highest target. Bitcoin is truly amazing. Anyone who would invest in it today, will become a rich elite guy in the future. This dump is also destined to end someday.
