I can feel the same feeling as yours, but I probably think that it really hurt, no matter what you avoided and recovered from that disappointment.
So, does it mean that we must not be happy until something is hot in our hands? As we know, not only in gambling but also in other sectors We may be able to lose something only in seconds because of missing something or being not lucky probably.
The money may likely seem to be ours, but in the end, it ends there, and we can't do anything again, only seeing from the far distance. It hurts, does it?

And what is about now?
What do you take from that previous experience?
4462  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Millennials Increasingly Prefer Bitcoin to Gold or Real Estate on: October 01, 2020, 03:41:10 PM
It can be used for millennials who prefer Bitcoin to Gold and real estate. There are reasons that are easier to understand here, especially where the area I live in:
1. Bitcoin is easier to achieve or obtain compared to investing in gold or RE.
Most millennials probably don't have enough money to invest in Gold or RE. Whereas with Bitcoin, they can start small. Plus there are ways they can get Bitcoin.
2. More trends among millennial, especially because this is related to technology that will continue to develop
4463  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BitCoin and bitcoin high transaction fees on: October 01, 2020, 03:28:34 PM
First, we should understand that Bitcoin and other payment methods are different. You may not only consider BTC as payment but also as an asset. You may consider that sending BTC needs more times than those payment methods, it may be true. But how is about doing some transaction around the world and need to pay it globally? Sometimes, BTC is needed.
Additionally, people may not only focus on using BTC for payment but prefer to use it for trading and investing. You know, from these, we can earn more profits. It is different from the currency where we cannot make profits from it more easily.

Actually, the fees are different depending on the time we are using and the blocks we are passing. Here, you can set the fees to determine how long your transactions will be processed until done.

4464  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is Addictive...Pay Attention to your Gambling Habit!!! on: September 30, 2020, 10:02:34 PM
We always try to ensure that we are okay with gambling and we can bet for something. But it will depend on how we can manage our personality, finance management, emotion, and also control our desire to gambling or betting. If we can't, we will be addicted. And gambling addictive is commonly worse for most people, moreover if he is addicted and he can't meet with what he expects. It may end up in some crimes.

I read an article today about a man killing his wife and burying her in the backyard of his house. Well, he assumed there are many reasons why he killed his wife.

But after researched and analyzed, the judge said here:
Quote
“The collapse of your financial circumstances and the squandering of millions as a result of your gambling was a significant factor in your personal circumstances leading to you killing your wife,” said the judge.

It makes sense o the reasons after searching how his financial system and management. At least, the man admits that he is a "high role", primarily on horse racing. What we can see there is that he has lost betting hundreds of thousands of $ at one time. And what makes worse also is that he lost $3 million, probably more.

In this case, I am not blaming betting or gambling. Sometimes, gambling and betting can also make someone successful and they also have very good financial management so that they will not run off their money for gambling. This is what people can manage their desire, emotion, risks, and also finance.

but for those who only addicted and following the desire, it may end up like this, with any crimes.

So, depend on who you are and what you want to be.

The subject of sports betting, is today the reason why many follow certain sports, come on! there is nothing wrong with that, okay.
But, what happens to the real reason that led us to follow a specific sport, either because we practice it or we simply like it.(?)
Simply for the answer to these:
Both.
I like the sport because I practice it, and
I also like sport because I just like it, but no practicing it. Like, I like football match but I don't practice it.
Moreover, if we are a fan of a club or sport, we will always update their matches, follow the news happen, and also see their development.
It is only limited as a fan.
But more specifically, sometimes, following a certain sport for betting is also something very usual. And when people concern about that betting, it may mean that they really like the sport because of the reward of betting, or also both, they really like the sport an also like betting for it.
It doesn't matter the reasons because everybody has its own reason and reference.

But, the bad thing is that if we only concern about sport for betting, and if we lose for betting and we hate the sport, this is what called very closed-minded and consideration. Sometimes, people are blaming sports because they lost betting. This is wrong.

And for me personally, I am not a good person at betting, so that betting is not the main preference I like the sport.

4466  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If all BTC Gets Bought Up? on: September 30, 2020, 09:03:51 PM
Do you mean if all BTC has been mined and the whales have bought all BTC?
Thoughts. Seems more and more "whales' are getting into BTC

Many are buying up the supply of Bitcoin. Which in turn would make it harder for other people to get.
If so, why should we worry about this? This will be kind of what the other people here said, Supply & demand. More demand will be better to increase the price of BTC. Additionally, do you think that if whales by all BTC, they will only hold it on their wallet? Well, it may be. But, it doesn't mean that they will never sell it. Everyone buys something to get profits. And if all BTC bought, it means that it is a good condition. More people to buy, more increase the price, commonly this what happens.

Then the value of some of us who just have 0.00054  BTC  have little value in the long term?
Value in Bitcoin is not meant to be like that. It doesn't mean that if you have a small BTC, your value will be also small enough. The value of BTC will be the same for all amounts of BTC. And when you have only that amount, you can use it for trading. DO you think everyone will only buy BTC and hold it without selling on the market? I don't think so. Everyone likes money and profits. If someone holds BTC for any purpose, they will do it for the shake of profits in the future. And it may make the price increased.

So, you may not worry if you only have a small amount of BTC.

This s a crime, whatever the currency used, it is not the fault of the currency, but the people do.

I agree with this:
-snip-
If we blame Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies because they are used for any crimes, so we should also blame other currencies used for it. If they talk that BTC is easy to be used for any crimes, let's compare how much currency is also used for those crimes.
So, what is the point? The criminals will always do everything and use everything to support and soften their ways of crimes.

In this case, I still have no idea when there are people that hate BTC because it is used for crimes. Here, note for people who still hate BTC because it is used for crimes (as they think):
1. You do not know how BTC can change everyone's life
2. BTC has value, more than what you think, that is why we love it.
3. BTC is something very worthy, you may not know how we can earn profits form it
4. You consider if BTC is used for crimes, you know, you will always think so if your mind is limited in one small box only.
5. Cryptocurrency is also about technology, you may not be able to follow the development if you hate them.
And many other reasons again.

So, it means that it needs another election to make the price increase highly. but of course, it should be the contribution of every single in very simple ways.

As we know, why it is a really high price and also it will never be late if the price is so fluctuating. But let's see to gather and also consider every single crypto news in that country. The prediction will be also inflection, not more, but also your journeys otw to the next player. ,
4469  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Great News: Nigeria Launches Digital Portal and Mobile App on: September 30, 2020, 04:07:49 PM
Is the cryptocurrency law in this country is legal but for only digital investment? it means that as the payment method, it is still is forbidden, right. In this case, It means that the adoption of cryptocurrency in this country has been good enough, developing enough from its beginning.
And the simple question is that what is the significance of creating that? will it really give a certain influence and also impact?
4470  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What would you prefer? Live casino games or slots? on: September 29, 2020, 10:37:10 PM
Live casinos or slots?
Well, actually this is quite difficult because it also offers quite similar risks.
Here, many say that both slots and live casinos are very easy to be tricked by the house. yeah, we know that if it is on the live casino, we really do not know what they have done to their machine, right? And do you think that they will not do anything to the machine and let every person win always? I don't think so. There will be always a certain trick to cheat us not awarely. But, they are also smart that they also give us chance to win, but I don't think we will win so easily and often.

Also in slots, it can b also programmed with some tricks and we only can get a small chance of winning.
But of course, everybody has its own history. They can think that they ever won big and win again. It is addictive where we can't stop ourselves not to play them.
4471  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: BOUNTY HUNTERS: THE CARRIER OF ALL BLAMES IN NEW CRYPTO PROJECTS' PRICE DUMP on: September 29, 2020, 10:17:00 PM
It has been the usual practice of the investors to attribute the faults and blame of a new project price dump to the bounty hunters.
Actually, it is funny, but in fact, this is true. I often follow the telegram groups of any project and see many chats that blame bounty hunters if the price dumps. They always said that the team should not give any chance to bounty hunters to get the coins or token because the price can dump after they got it.
More specifically, they always think that bounty hunters and airdrops will become the main factors of price drops.

However, in fact, how the percentage of tokens or cons for bounty hunters? I think commonly it is only about 2% or approximately 4% the highest. Can it dump the price so easily? if it is capable, it means that the tokens or coins are limited and once there are some investors buying the tokens it should get the increasing price again.

So, I also agree with some points of OP. Many factors will influence the price to drop or increase. Bounty or airdrop hunters maybe only a few percentages that can cause the price drops. But we do not know what behind it exactly and probably only investors and team know that.
4472  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Where can I sell ERC20 coins? on: September 29, 2020, 10:10:42 PM
Do you mean what ERC20 tokens are they? Here are some conditions:

1. Etherdelta Token (EDT)
If it is the Etherdelta Token (EDT), I don't find any exchange listing this token although I searched in idex. I have searched the token on CMC and CoinGecko and I found no data.
You need to know that if the token is not listed again (delisted) in any exchange, it means that you can sell it anymore. We know many ERC20 tokens are not tradable after so long time. I also have some in my wallets, shit tokens/coins that are not listed in any exchange (maybe will never be listed)

2. Other ERC20 Tokens
By the way, it should be ERC20 Tokens, not coins.
Well, if it is about the ERC20 tokens, we must know several things:
- Check on the token official announcement whether the token has been listed on a certain exchange or not
- You can't send the token into an exchange if the token is not already listed on that exchange or your token will be lost. because you commonly can only send the ERC20 tokens into the eligible wallet address.

About the fee, there is no way for you to withdraw your tokens or coins without any fees. Moreover, it is ERC20 tokens where you must need certain gas as a fee. Or even it is from the exchange, you must also need a withdrawal fee to enable for withdrawal.

You can send the gas fee to the wallet in order to eligible to withdraw your tokens. But once more, Note that you must ensure that the token is tradable in certain exchanges.
4473  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Read the rules and don't post plagiarised content. on: September 29, 2020, 04:58:16 PM
I'm constantly seeing posts by new members asking for help because they have been banned for breaking the rules here. Now i shouldn't really have to start a thread like this, but please read the rules before you get chucked out of the forum.
There are some types of them:
- They know the rules but still don't believe the punishment
- They do not know and do not want to know
- They are in hurry to post something that they see/think/feel
- They only follow other, make posts (no matter what)
- They really don't know and they are lazy

Well, we may not say all of the newbies are doing this, but some of them did those.
Shitposters and plagiarism, very common to be found here  Grin

I also read the content of a member who is asking help for his /her account, well, in fact, he had admitted that he committed plagiarism,
They will admit doing so because they have been punished and will still do the same if they are not yet punished.

or sometimes, they also don't know what meant by "plagiarism"?? Grin Grin
4474  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why do people keep playing unlicensed, illegal slot machines? on: September 29, 2020, 04:24:07 PM
How if they considered if it is worthier and more legit to do so?
Sometimes. also people need easiness and a big chance to win. If an illegal casino is much easier, this is also what they think.
But of course, it is very risky, doesn't guarantee if we can really get the money and other risky again.

Or probably, as mentioned in the third option? How if they do not know that it is the illegal one?

Illegal casinos are available in almost every countries. In my country, gambling is legally banned. But the number of illegal casinos are in thousands. They are mostly open by invitation only and not for any common people. So it makes sense for such countries where gambling is banned.
This may be also one of the reasons. And once they are uncovered, they may be one of the people to leave in jail  Grin Grin
4475  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Where do you store your seed? on: September 29, 2020, 03:36:48 PM
I wonder if I tell you where I store my seed in detail. I do not know you and probably it is not safe enough, to tell the truth. So, as the other said, I will give you common and general thoughts about it.

At least, there must be backup. I can't say what kind of backup you need to do. But you can do as follow:
1. In your email
2. Printed paper
3. Certain book
4. Image in data
5. Sent to other person contacts who is very trusted
6. Mke some code in your online and offline notes.

Actually, sending it to my mailbox is very risky because hackers can be there to pick it. However, it is just an option and ou need to pick the right one. 
4476  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do think about skill games? on: September 28, 2020, 11:58:51 PM
Well, I believe that this kind of game isn't just needed the skill to play but it much better to have luck as well to win the jackpot prize which is much important than having the ability alone.
Agree, as the category is a luck based-game, so the winning is mostly affected by the luck factor. Indeed gamblers don't play carelessly, but they have a certain approach based on their own experiences. However, it is true that winning is mostly caused by the luck, not the approach/the way to play it. It is much different when you play a skill-based game, if you only rely on the luck, then you will never win on the game.
4477  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Hacker started to eliminate tokens stolen from KuCoin on: September 28, 2020, 11:24:33 PM
Wow so now, they are trying to start harvest what they have done? It is worrying actually about what they will probably do tot eh coins. Whether they will do some mixer or even sale with a very dump price.
But in this case, they are raising tokens/coins and now they are stolen and going to be sold at any rate. Will it influence the price? next? If yes, who are the most profitable people of this?
They also use different wallets. But if we can track the wallet, it means that we can know the exact however of that stolen coin/token?
4478  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Red Cards in Football and what they do to the odds and the outcome on: September 28, 2020, 10:36:29 PM
I always hate when someone from the club that I like got a red card for an unnecessary offense. However, if its offense is meant to maintain something or because of a certain problems like what Ziane did, I don't if it will be wors again. And for the team, I personally agree that a red card for one of their team will result in the game exactly. They must have a decreasing spirit and also of course they must work hard to maintain and survive.

Actually, I ever know about it that red cards may give an impact on the need to pay some fees for that red card. Is it true? probably every match or event will depend on the rules, including the red card acceptance and it is a must.
4479  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Telegram is trash on: September 28, 2020, 04:51:51 PM
Should we blame telegram for all those shit things, advertisements, and also scam information?
It is like we are blaming all social media where we can use it for positive and negative sides. but yeah, everyone has their own thing and I don't think so.
The ways you get from telegram will depend on the way you do and believe in telegram.
To avoid all the bad things from telegram, we need our effort to do some analysis. that is why we have our ways to learn it.
- Filter all information coming from a telegram
- Never believe so easily
- never only follow the other members do on telegram
- Never join any airdrop or gift rewards from telegram if it is not officially announced in the official channel of certain projects.

They are mostly a gang. work in a structured manner in carrying out such a neat scam. Of course, this may seem identical to those who already know the world of crypto. But for those who are beginners? It is a disaster wrapped in sweet honey and candy, like a child who could easily be deceived.

And this mode is always like this, they require us to deposit first in order to withdraw their prizes. This is classic. However, there are still many victims. lucky you can immediately alert and avoid it.
