481  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why is the price of bitcoin so high on: November 20, 2017, 02:40:31 PM
Hello,

Im new in crypto and have a question (a stupid one).. I never really gave it much though and now i wonder.

Is price of bitcoin so high (compared to altcoins) because it is so much superior or is it just because it is THE coin - the original one.

Cheers Smiley

The price of bitcoin is this high because of the more people are getting into crypto currencies and investors are investing heavily into bitcoin. This is making the crypto economy gain the interest of people and the price rises cause of much demands of bitcoin.

Yes daily new people are investing in bitcoins, and the demand in the market is increasing. But at present, i think some group of rich people are investing in this bitcoin to tempt a normal people to invest in this bitcoin. Because now the bitcoin is becoming popular in every country and people keep watching the bitcoin movement and investing.

Every altcoin can make you rich. The most important thing to keep it for at least a year or two
No way there is hundred of shitcoins in the market if you invest in those coins you will not make any profit. But there are some altcoins can grow very fast, and they may make you rich in future. You can better concentrate on only top 20 coins. My choice is ETH and waves.

Hello,
I am thinking of investing a little amount in cryptocurrency. I want to invest $100. I am also thinking of doing trading sometime with that money.
Which coin will be the best for investing with $100 ?


I prefer that you should wait for the downtime in the market where every coins value are decreasing then that is the right time to invest some coin. As of now the value of altcoins is at fire, I prefer that you invest in eth coins today because that is the altcoin that can grow faster.

You are ready to wait for a long time then you can invest your money in ETH, or you are looking to make a speed profit then invest in other high volume altcoins. Right all reputed altcoins are in the fire so wait for some time the price will drop that time you can invest.

Gambling is good too if you want to profit big amount at once go and play but there is also possibilities that you will lose it. But investment is about trustingyour money to someone, just like that. Its like giving your money about a year and wait until its going to profit.

Gambling is not good if you want profit and you are the one to gamble. Profit in gambling is also good but it's very unstable in a way that you'll be streak in deficit. It's also hard to recover in gambling, that's why if you want to take a risk but you are comfortable that you can recover on it later on, go with legit investments.
It is always be a problem when people come to a casino and want to make money steady.
Then that moment you might have to think about trading has bigger chance to make the mission completed successfully.
Noone can deny the fact that gambling isn't profitable for the long term.


Well i think investing in a  casino is better than playing against the house and so if you get the chance to invest in bitcoin casino then you should go ahead unless you have a working strategy that can beat the house  and that is the only time i will advice you to gamble instead.

No strategy can beat house suppose if anyone beat house it's just by luck not from strategy. But investing in casino sites also risky who knows when they will shut down and go home. If that happens to whom we have to ask? Whatever we invested everything will go. And to make a decent profit, we have to invest min 1 BTC this is also not worth but manageable.

India just trying their luck by throwing this game for a short score with limited over, this is where test matches look to be interesting and not as the same old usual ones.They should win this if they can make Sri Lanka go to defensive in the last couple of overs.

India require 6 wickets to win the test match in around 20 overs left for the day. And SL require 173 runs to win in another 20 overs if they want to go for it. It will end up in a draw unless something changes in the course of time where either SL gets all out which seems little difficult now. But a good match overall with the short time span.
 

What a thrilling end to the game I thought India would win this game today but bad luck the weather not supported. Due to bad light, the game was stopped early and the match was draw. It's an advantage for Sri Lanka and disadvantage for the Indian team. Great bowling from Bhuvneshwar Kumar he took 4 wickets in just 11 overs and gave only 8 runs.
486  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The hapiness of a green profit on: November 20, 2017, 02:02:31 PM
I always do my best to stay on the green side no matter what but in the end we always just want to be the one who is profiting. I don't gamble too much but it's a way to really enjoy what you can have meaning if you have the chance to win, you go for it.

I can't make myself stay on the green side, I know we should stay on it whatever it takes. But pushing ourselves to stay on that side is quite hard for doing it. And if you don't gamble too much, you can't stay for the green status but of course all of us wants to stay on that side no matter what happens. Greener side, whether gambling or trading it's giving us confidence to do more.
Maybe it wasn't just your lucky day during you the time you played when you cannot stay on the green side. It is definitely hard because you cannot control luck and somehow the casino controls the outcome because of the advantage of the edge. Maybe it's the Universe telling you that you should stop gambling or something, as long as you don't get addicted it would be okay.

Luck or not, gambling is really unpredictable. Many times that I'm into red side and only few times that I'm into the green side but I don't know why I'm staying maybe this is just a sign that I'm a real gambler and I don't mind whether I lost a lot of not as long as I have my hobby and never give up on my losses. Green days is what I'm waiting for, I know it will happen to me.
That's great if you believe that green days will coming to you. For me, It's not matter if i win or i lose in gambling, The thing that i want is to be happy, and i feel good, Feeling good is a very good thing for me, I don't need money from gambling or in kind of risky activites, what i need is to be happy in my life, and gambling always do that for me.
Basically you are enjoying your games and you spending your free time in gambling happily. What you are doing it is actually right if you love free money and play gambling to make money it will make you sad end of the day. But instead of losing money if you love the game and your luck is good you can have both money and fun. I also do gamble just for fun.
487  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: gambling ends on: November 20, 2017, 01:55:17 PM
can this world stop in gambling?
someone who like to gamble hard to escape from the gambling trap. almost like a drug addict. Even after they went bankrupt still struggling to gamble by borrowing money for gambling. Actually what do they expect?
I think people who are experiencing addiction in gambling can still change their lives by the help of the gambler's friends and family, they can help the gambler by changing its habit like playing sports, working out, and working in their jobs, instead staying at home and going to casinos.

yes that habit is what should be strong and appealing enough to help you forget completely about gambling because gambling is difficult to stop and you should be really ready to replace it with sporting activities, working out and other recreational activities like you are suggesting.

Only the physical work can replace gambling addiction how means it will give us tiredness, and we will not get more free time. Suppose if you start to play any indoor or outdoor game it takes a long time and after playing this game you will be full tired you don't look any other things. But if you find mobile games or any internet related activities then it is hard to come out from this gambling addiction.
488  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket match prediction discussions on: November 19, 2017, 03:57:28 PM
Not at all impressive by SL middle order batsmen . Herath is playing well but 250 isn't enough according to me , they have to reach atleast 270 as soon as possible so that they can pressurize Indian batsmen in the second innings.

India is still trailing by 85 runs with 10 wickets in hand. As of now India is 37/0 and things going well. Tomorrow is last day and 1 more session in today play left. If SL has to win they have quickly wrap up India and make minimum run possible for 2nd innings. Else it will be a draw match.


Indian batsman is playing well and safe batting in 2nd innings. 54/0 they trail by 66 runs, but I have little bit hope on this match that SL may win this match if they pick 5 or 6 more wickets in 1 session. this could be possible in this pitch we saw in 1st innings.

Match looks into India's favor now as they have a heavy lead and with only one wicket loss, if they can declare and give a target of 200 plus with over 2 sessions, will be a good win for India.

India is just 49 runs lead and as looking towards pitch condition i think this match is going towards draw, even if tommorrow India bat well in first session and make lead of 200+ then they have to bowl well and take all wickets of Sri Lanka in another 2 session but what if Sri Lanka batsman bats well as now the pitch is looking good for batting then even Sri Lanka can win if the target is low. So i think India will try to make lead of 250+ and then give Sri Lanka batting and try to take soon wicket. So 5th day will be full of drama as both team will try fully to take control of the match and win it.

Do you think India can make 200 plus runs in the 1st session and after that, they can make all out SL in next 2 sessions? I don't think it will work out and India will win this test match. My guessing is 90% this match will become a Draw and in remaining 10% if any miracle happens anyone team can win this match.

Yea it can eliminate employer
Many developing and poor countries poverty and unemployment problem is a major or common phenomenon. Many young generation are in jobless. They can adjust with Bitcoin and remove their problems.
You are right yearly cores of students are completing their educations all over the world. But only a few percentage students are getting a job in time remaining students are suffering to earn money. For this kind of students, I think bitcoin helped a lot, and it reduced unemployment.

I'm also surprised by Goffin's victory against Federer though Roger has said he is not at 100% of his shape.
Goffin will face. in the final, Dimitrov and both will improve their best ranking

here are the projections of the ranking atp, it will practically be the definitive ranking of the 2017 season:
 
1)Nadal     10645
2)Federer    9605
3)Dimitrov   4650 (if he wins the final 5150 points)  Best Ranking
4)A.Zverev  4610
5)Thiem      4015 (if Goffin wins the final, Thiem goes down to 6th place)
6)Cilic         3805 (if Goffin wins the final, Cilic     goes down to 7th place)
7)Goffin      3775 but if he wins the final he climbs to 5th place with 5275. In any case it is Best Ranking
8)Sock        3165 Best Ranking
9)Wawrinka 3150
10)Carreno-Busta 2615

other strong players:

11)Del Potro 2595
12)Djokovic  2585
16)Murray    2290
22)Nishikori  1885
24)Raonic     1795

I saw that something strange is going on on this match. Roger looked like he is moving to slow and his reaction on the shots(backhand and forehands) was not so sharp too. I haven`t heard that he sad that he wasn`t 100% ready for this duel. I couldn`t figure out if Goffin is playing to good or Roger is not playing his best tennis. Thanks for the info.
Dimitrov is favorite and I think that he will win today. So third place on ATP ranking list should be his. He should enjoy as top 3 player for this 2-3 months because Djoko,Murray and Wawrinka are coming back and will change looks of the ATP Ranking, or better said, will put the things on the right place.

.I could sense roger wasn't himself especially after the firjst set which he did manage to win, Congrats to D Goffin, he deserves to win but i was looking for a Roger v Rafa to end the calender year but it seems that's  not happening.
Everyone expected that Rafa and Roger would play in finals but our bad luck both players out from this tournament. Come to the today's game I also expecting that Dimitrov will win this match.

Do not support bitcoin cash! This is a planned Chinese attack on the network of bitcoins, behind which stands Bitmain, this is a huge pampa! These bastards send fake transactions to the bitcoin network.
SEGWIT2x WAS A ATTACK.

HODL BTC!

Could you help to explain what are fake transactions ? I'm just curious.


Best regards.

That is right, we need further information in able to believe with your accusation against bitcoin cash. I don't have any bitcoin cash but it is better to have some information for me to avoid bad choices since I was a trader, I did have some before from the split and I already sell it. Anyways bitcoin cash has no fundamentals that can withstand the market and investors any longer unlike bitcoin I believe bitcoin will crash sooner or later.

Even i don't have more knowledge about this bitcoin cash. When it came to market that time only I avoided and not invested. But according to me my observation it gave us a couple of chances to make a profit. For example recent hike in BCH price and before that also it went up to $700 few times. For a long term investment, i also not support this coin and I don't think that bitcoin will crash in future.
492  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What if, we advertise bitcoin on T.V.? on: November 19, 2017, 03:29:46 PM
In my opinion,  bitcoin doesn't need to be advertised on tv.  It is gaining popularity nowadays, especially on this age of computer. Everyone had access on the internet and can make a research about bitcoin with just a single click.
To know about the word bitcoin, we need publicity or else how can people get to know what is Bitcoin. At least people heard this name, and they know the price of the bitcoin then they do reseacrh in google. To spread the word bitcoin to everyone we need media help then only it is possible.
493  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Slots Strategies? on: November 17, 2017, 02:49:15 PM
I dont think that strategy is indeed in slot or even in all gamblings.i do believe that its luck whos gambler depends on.i have heard some tricks on cards but its harder to apply in actual game.coz the moment u made mistakes in a single move the losing is on your stake.

yes i also believe that luck that will take the big part for gambling games, without luck we can winning in any of games we've played. if there are any tricks on cards, i think its only can help us to win in few times but the rest, i don't think that we can win again and again because tricks is only can used in just one until three or at least five times and then the tricks will be visible to others.

in card games 1st we need the luck to get good cards and next you can use your tricks and win your game. But winning card game is not easy like other skill games. in sports betting if I lose 2 or 3 games definitely i will win next to my bet because I know about my game. In card game there are lots of pro gamblers are there, so it is not easy to beat them unless we are also pro in card game.
494  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket match prediction discussions on: November 17, 2017, 02:43:08 PM
India in the first innings lost 5 wickets just for 74 runs. It is either Indian player's worst batting or SL superb bowling.

Day 2 has ended and India would be happy that rain has come into picture else SL would have easily made India all out in less than 125  runs. On  other hand SL would feel bad that inspite of picking quick wickets 2 days have gone and still only India has lost 5 wickets. This match will  be a draw.
If the match happens for the next 3 days without the interruption rain we can expect result, as pitch is assisting for bowlers especially fast bowlers. India has 3 quality bowlers can take 20 wickets of the opposition team.
Yup the pitch became too worst batsmen are struggling to touch the ball. Suppose the continues without any interrupt then surely we will get a result in this test match. Both teams have quality bowlers in just one day there is a possibility are there to complete 2 innings. But tomorrow also the match stopped means it will become a Draw.
495  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: ETH or LTC long term? on: November 17, 2017, 02:21:10 PM
In my opinion, it's best if you stick with LTC for now, especially since it will have its Lightning cross-chain swap with BTC later, which may push its price to surge. Furthermore, we must also consider the fact that Bithumb is advancing the volume of LTC to a new height in their exchange and that, of course, will also affect its price eventually. We can actually say that we're expecting an increase in the price of LTC sooner or later if it continues.
The main reason why people are not investing in LTC means the price was stable from the last couple of months and recently it was pupped for few dollars that's it. But people have hopes on this coin one day it will reach good value. Now I plan to buy $200 worth of altcoins I am confused which to but ETH or LTC or Waves, ETC.
496  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: I hope you guys won't fall for this BCH joke on: November 17, 2017, 02:09:52 PM
I really don't understand why Roger Ver decided to pump the price last week, if it is going to lose 50% of its value again in few days, it just doesn't make any sense. Thanks some people must have made quick money from the pump

Surely they are up for something that's why they pumped it and whatever it is it's surely part of their plans. And yeah many rode their pump and get profit but many are also buy back and thinks that the rally will continue but they've been deceive by the pump and bch dumped easily in just for hours after it pumped hard. That's why it's all pure drama and show up by the people behind it and just want to dethrone bitcoin.

They planned very well and trapped many new people and made a good profit from others money. Those who hold this coin before this hike I think they made a good profit. When it crossed $1500 that time only, i thought it was a big trap but my bad luck I did not have any BCH that time to make a profit. This time if it again comes down to $300 I will buy and hold.
497  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What you think about Ethereum in like 5years? on: November 17, 2017, 01:52:44 PM
In 5 years i see Ethereum as the still one of the main cryptocoins, with atleast 10x bigger market cap than it has today. There are so many real world uses coupled with so many developers building on top of it... The future is going to be insane for Eth early adopters!

Now it should be in my opinion at least 1000$. So it is like spring - should just explode oneday! We saw this when it go from 11$ to 300.$

The bitcoin price is also increased very slowly. But suddenly an unexpected increment we saw in this year. i think no one expected this increment in bitcoin price. Like this ETH also now stable at $300 one day it will cross suddenly $1k this is guaranteed but when it will cross that i am not sure we have to wait for that time. In 5 years 100% it will be in good position.
498  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it possible for the bitcoin to lose it's value ? on: November 15, 2017, 02:14:46 PM
On my opinion, I believe that bitcoin price can possibly hit at very low but not completely lose ots value because I believe that when the time come wjen price is very low, most people will dump and panicly sell there coins but there are still some people who will hold there coin because they believe that in the long run, it will rise again.
I think now onwards the bitcoin price will not hit a very low price. A huge number of people and big shots are invested on this bitcoin, and this is the base coin for all cryptocurrency. If it's come down, it will affect on all cryptocurrencies.
499  Economy / Economics / Re: Electronic Money vs. Physical Money on: November 15, 2017, 02:11:00 PM
Physical money is very attractive, I prefer to hold the money on fiat like USD or EURO, because they are pretty and everybody likes them instead of my local money.
But everybody knows that earning money through electronic money or cryptocurrencies is being very easy at the moment, because they are being very volatile and that is why almost everyone is buying bitcoin, only to make more money because it is easy.
So, I think, that they are different and we need both of them
Now the trend is changed, I agree that holding USD or EURO feels good, but the value of the physical money will never increase. You want to grow your investment then you must go for electronic money. I think next generation full support only electronic money.
500  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you ever gambled to escape worry, trouble,boredom,loneliness, grief or lose on: November 15, 2017, 01:44:34 PM
Gambling has made a way in my life that's made a big impact. For example, when i feel lonely it makes me want to play and play. Not just in gambling but also with consoles and the risk of playing with others in a game with a wager makes me feel fired up. So I turn to it when possible but I make sure I'm not addicted.
Gambling can be sort of destruction to those people who want to escape problems and loneliness in life, others want to gamble because they are worry about money. All gamblers has their own reasons why they gamble.
yup you are right mate, people have there own reason why they are playing gambling. I do gamble for fun, but I play to win my bet. Suppose if I lose I will take that easily. Who will not take their loss seriously they can play safe gambling.
