Are they mainly looking for money, excitement, socialization? Please vote and leave a comment below in case you want to add something to your answer.
It is actually everything since gambling has a very wide scope on which it caters to, especially to individuals who have the capacity to gamble. There are two (2) kinds of individuals mostly in casinos: one looking for entertainment and the other expecting money. The first type of gambler is usually for people who have the resource to gamble. They find the act satisfying since it provides socialization among their peers and colleagues; this type of gambler also knows their discipline throughout the game and they know their limitations. The second type of gambler is usually the common majority shared in a casino. This is potentially dangerous especially that they are prone so succumbing to addiction. If you gamble to pay for your financial problems, expect things to spiral out of control. |

These are actually helpful especially for newbies who are relatively new to the gambling world. But in all honesty, some are easier said than done. Gambling is an act which is very difficult to maintain and have discipline due to its nature being satisfying and giving adrenaline. Not to mention, everything revolves around money in that aspect- which is the primary need of a human. My friend recently get scammed by a gambling site which he found by continuously browsing. On internet. ~Goodbye $200 .~ Why browsing the Internet looking for a gambling site, when you can come here on this forum and see dozens of established sites and new ones with reviews on them? I personally don't know about more reliable source of information regarding crypto gambling than this very forum. It's better to spend one hour reading about various gambling sites here than saving one hour, but losing $200 to some scammers, imo. Yeah, it doesn't make sense if he cannot found any recommended gambling site on here because we are sharing the best gambling website which he can use to gamble. But that will be different if he doesn't know this forum so he can search on the internet and found many gambling websites in out there without knowing which is the good gambling site. There are lots of legit and trustful gambling sites roaming around this forum. I guess one of the major considerations is the length of the gambling site's operation. If it has been around for years, it means that it already built its strong reputation and trust from its user. But you are right, doing research and asking is the best way in order to know if the gambling site is legit or not. |

It means the popularity is the one of the main ingredients for Filipinos when voting.  That is why I argue that democracy cannot be integrated if that is the mindset of the majority of the voters in our country. If they are clueless about the history of every candidate as they base their votes solely on popularity and hearsay, I think that a democratic form of government would not fit. We can implement strategies in order to enlighten each voter but I still believe that this problem will exist. |

Democracy is not dead in the Philippines IMO basing on the result. You may not like it but that's the voice of the people.
For candidates who have pending cases, they should be ban from running for government post and this entail amendments to the Constitution but i think this is very far from happening as those who will amend the Constitution will be affected.
The voice of the people? That is where the problem rises due to the majority of voters do not have a voice of their own. Not to be rude but the majority who voted for these candidates are also the people who are unaware of the current state of the country. I just cannot accept that these candidates won despite having criminal and civil cases filed before them. If this is the voice of the people wherein they vote for alleged criminals, artists, a person who does not even know what the job of a senator is, and a thief, then our country is doomed. I do agree that the Constitution must be amended in order to address this problem of candidates running with pending cases. But again, the people who are responsible for the amendment of the Constitution are the legislative branch, so this may be far from happening. |

All users who have lost bitcoin due to the recent Binance hacking will be compensated as to their announcement. Unfortunately, since bitcoin's nature is primarily exist on the internet, hacking is inevitable. As to the recent bull run, the price stabilized in the $8,000 mark with little resistance. It is never too late to purchase bitcoin but you missed the opportunity to earn short-term income due to the recent skyrocketing of its price. The bull market might have started looking at the current market trend. However, you aint late at all since the party just started. You can still jump in but for the exchange, there e are several other good ones but binance hasn't lost their integrity yet.
That is what I always advise people when they mention that they are too late in the bull-run experience. As for my experience, it is never too late as long as you do research, technical analysis, and market observation. The bull run may have started but prices are still unpredictable. |

It was never a democracy from the start, the Americans pretty much made sure of that during the first election they administered. It gave a huge advantage to political dynasties that they've remained entrenched as they were during the Hispanic era. Ever noticed that '87 "Constitution" specified that political dynasties would not be allowed but no proposed law to regulate it ever passed?
That is actually true. It is stated in the Constitution that political dynasties are prohibited yet almost all local governments positions were taken over by families who share the same surname. I just find it really depressing that our senatorial candidates are filled with people who are endorsed by our president- let almost all are unqualified for the job. I cannot fathom on why our countrymen voted someone who stole money directly in our pockets! |

The only thing that we can do is to provide preventive measures just in case of malware due to hackers. Unfortunately, being an entity whose nature exists on the internet cannot escape the possibility of being hacked, no matter how secured or updated your engines are. For example, binance (one of the leading exchanges) recently was attacked and around thousands of bitcoins were stolen. Re: As the price rises so should our sense of security rise
We should always prioritize security in general, regardless of what bitcoin's price is, as scammers will always be out there looking for potential victims regardless of the market situation. This is actually true as being secured has a broad scope and contains no limitations as to the nature of the topic. Even if cryptocurrencies are not involve, being secured and providing contingencies may address future problems that may arise due to hacking. Better transport your bitcoins in an offline wallet or hardware for maximum security. |

Last May 13, 2019, the Philippines held their general elections for the spot for various local government positions and for the senate. There has been an uproar regarding the list of candidates due to some being unqualified and fit for the position (a former head of the national police, television actors, an artist, person who has 16 counts of graft and corruption on his name, someone who constantly fakes her credentials, etc.). Unfortunately, those who I just mentioned received and won their spot in the senate- the legislative branch that is responsible for making laws. I do not want to sound politically bias (although it may sound like) but I really feel devastated about the results. I mean, there are lots of candidates whose credentials are far more fitting than most of them. Voting someone who just stole millions of Pesos from the people and still won on the elections? Do you really think that democracy is dead and is unfitting in the Philippines? If yes, what form of government should be integrated in order to address this issue?  photo from philstar.com |

Reaching 1 million USD for each bitcoin is the dream for most people who owns bitcoin but it has its share of disadvantages too. Back in 2018 when the price of each bitcoin reached an alarming rate of around $18,000-$20,000, transaction fees were high and it discouraged almost some to trade their bitcoins. From an investment perspective, reaching that price would be the best thing since sliced bread. The opportunities and potentials it create to people who own bitcoins may be a solution financially to some. Not to mention, expect government intervention to take place in this scenario. if btc hits 1 mil . i would be happy to be around for that to happen. i dont necessarily need btc to hit 1 mil. i would have alot of cars thats for sure. i think every young person would be spending like crazy on who knows what. and jus go completely broke. in a few years time.
People who owns it will be the most happiest and those who could not get or thought it was bubble would regret it later as they would have missed the money making opportunity during this bull run . It my or may not reach to that levels but it will rise from current level for sure . I doubt that it will reach that kind of price soon but it is not entirely impossible. Before it reaches to that price, government would surely intervene in the process and banks may engage in the cryptoworld by making their own coin. |

Hi,
Upon checking the official website from the link that you posted, there are no links directing to the project's WhitePaper and to the current team behind the project. These are crucial information which you should supplement in order to validate the authenticity of the project. Hopefully you integrate it as soon as possible, thanks!

One of the many things that the blockchain technology promotes is transparency reflected in a public ledger, which is open for the public. The blockchain technology was developed in order to abolish the need for a third-party consensus in handling our resources as a whole.
If we were to implement it in our election, every vote of a citizen would be reflected in the internet inside a public ledger which no one can ever change, hack, or hamper its contents. Everything is transparent and anyone can see it including all the historical data.
In other words, this would actually benefit the government and improve our system more in addressing cheating allegations and vote miscounting!

Hello every body.I am a Newbie. I joined Crytopia about four months ago. I hold ont and dog Now I want to practice to trade .Please help me give some idea for Newbie as me, I should trade or not? I really want to receive the instruction of the go-ahead, thank a lots.  Everyone who has an experience on trading was a newbie before until they experienced the actual field itself, did market research, and risked their resources for it. Anyone is eligible for trading but what differentiates is the technique and skill they utilize for maximum profit. As a newbie, you are obligated to do your research, study the market, and read guides on how to trade in order to prevent any losses. If you already know the basics and know how it works, why not! Also, it's better to try it as early as you can because you can learn better through experiences. And the more you're expose to it then who knows you'll be able to master it and you'll become successful in the future.
Learning to drive by reading and watching videos will not guarantee that you will be a good driver yet to learn driving, actual experience does! Same thing with trading and investing! You learn the skills and techniques by actually participating into such since you physically learn from it. |

Many but not all gamblers are claiming they gamble for fun and pass time. I was just thinking. If it is the reason why people gamble then why not play online games? There is a lot of good and challenging onlne games wherein you can interact with other people online?
Playing online games and gambling are two different worlds that cannot be compared with. Gambling involves risking a part of your resource in-exchange for a chance to win something. You sacrifice and risk your money in order to double or triple the returns depending on your luck. On the other hand, online games involve playing something that satisfies the need for your entertainment. One can argue that both can impinge addiction but gambling is way worse. Not only you succumb to addiction but also you risk a part of your livelihood which affects everyone in your surroundings. There are lots of people whose lives are ruined due to addiction from gambling. The interest and fun was very low when you are doing the normal games in online but if you are doing a gambling with the money for excitement will definitely change that's why gambling is more entertainment than anything.
I doubt about that as something satisfying is relative to an individual's experience. Like for my case, I enjoy playing online games compared to gambling. While the adrenaline is higher if you risk your money for high returns, losing in gambling may result to an endless cycle of betting. |

Almost everyone is indeed waiting patiently for the implementation of Bakkt platform in the cryptocurrency world. The price of bitcoin has already increased in the past few days and hearing this news may further elevate its price more. I really do hope that the bull run we are currently experiencing stabilizes soon enough so we can have a grasp on the trend for this quarter. One of the positive news this week seems to be able to provide the power to increase the value of bitcoin, I see many companies and investors who have made investments that have denied bullish on Bitcoin a few hours ago.
Of course they will deny it for reasons of greed. From the price itself, one may say that we are in the bull run as of now. Prices have gone from $6,000 to $7,800 in just a matter of days! |

Let say someone buy 1BTC now and after they will hold bitcoin for long time and they will wait a lot of years and let say they are lucky and bitcoin will reach 1.000.000$ then yes, bitcoin make some people reach.
This is too far fetched but most of the people that I know do this. It is very idealistic to speculate that the price of each bitcoin would reach a million dollars but nothing is indeed impossible. In my opinion, better focus on short and long-term goals as they provide an opportunity to profit due to its high volatility. Just to give you a concrete example, two (2) weeks ago the price of each bitcoin was stabilizing around $5,500-$6,000 with a little resistance. Until then, it skyrocketed now to $7,000. If you purchased/own at least 1 bitcoin during that week, you could have profited around $1,000 from that short-term investment. worth mentioning is success becoming rich by bitcoin. is it appropriate to call success if all of that is obtained from a fraud. What do you think  maybe a successful villain is the appropriate name 😅😅😅 Can I laugh now? lol. How can you say so that every people who got rich by bitcoin is all "villains", you don't even have any proofs that they've got their bitcoins in fraud. I think you are just too jealous because you don't have any bitcoin, or maybe you do have, before, but you've lost it because of your stupidity or naiveness, that is why you're just making rants about other people's lives since you don't have anything to do at all. Well it's another shitty reply from someone who lacks the knowledge on cryptocurrency, what could you expect? Better to focus on your personal growth and achievements than worrying about someone's reply who is obviously trolls around the forum. |

There are multiple benefits of playing online casinos, namely: - Convenience;
- Flexibility;
- Safety Measures; and
- Anonymity
Online casinos provide convenience as it eliminates the need for someone to physically visit the shop. This can be followed by anonymity (since you are not physically there) and safety measures as casinos tend to be potentially dangerous despite the presence of high security guards and cameras. Online gambling can be flexible depending on what cryptocurrency you utilize for payment. |

If the trend continues until the end of this quarter, we can expect the bull run to further have an impact on the price of bitcoin. This is a golden opportunity for either short/long-term investments especially that prices are skyrocketing now. I find it funny that the prices of altcoins are decreasing but the volume and price of bitcoin is increasing. But I still take the conservative approach as anything can happen due to the market being highly unpredictable. No one knows and your title is misleading. You ain't Nostradramus to predict such a big thing. Maybe it was just a simple pumped just to make people go into bitcoin again. You ain't a part of Whale also so you can't really prove your misleading title. Ethereum is still on the verge of dying so it needs some major altcoins to be on a big jump too if the bull run is really on.
Best way is to rely on data and market analysis. Wait until the end of the quarter and we may derive the market situation from there. I highly advise to take a conservative approach regardless of the market run that we are experiencing. |
