5181  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin and tax in your countries on: November 12, 2019, 10:20:55 AM
My country is not really looking into the area of cryptocurrency yet and I think it is not that much popular for the government to keep an eye it, I mean not popular to the government but the number of users of cryptocurrency is still quite high, just that we don’t make noise about it unlike the government, and since it has not affected their own government in any way, they are not so much paying attention to it.

I don’t know of the future, but for now, no government of mine is interested in cryptocurrency tax, but I believe that in future when cryptocurrency will become so popular, they will look into it which I don’t think I will ever pay it since I will be operating with a decentralized coin and also a decentralized exchange that makes my transaction untraceable.

Full article: https://www.forrestvisions.com/blog/people-are-underutilizing-bitcoin

People need to start accepting Bitcoin and keeping it, not converting it.

If you think of Bitcoin as just a virtual placeholder for fiat currency, stable coins will be the future and Bitcoin will slowly fade away.


Thoughts?
People are not keeping bitcoin in their wallet because they are still considering it in the fiat aspect of it, because if we understand bitcoin very well and we want to use it as payment, we will know that there is no way that volatility can affect the quantity of bitcoin itself, but of the fiat equivalent of it.

I was going through a post recently and I saw where someone actually made us understand that it is not the fault of the users that are converting it into fiat, but the fault of merchants that has failed to receive it and those merchants that are receiving it are also not keeping it in their wallet, but changing it to fiat which is still making us to encourage the traditional banking system and that is why we see that these institutions no longer complain again.
5183  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Business ideas with 60 Bitcoin? What would you do? on: November 12, 2019, 07:39:42 AM
If I were you, I would forget about establishing those projects for now that we are having lack of interest of users, as you see that most project that are being established are really not making it that much as far as it involves cryptocurrency, many people prefer to use the old coins for both payment and for investment purpose only.

Since you have that amount of bitcoin, I would just advise that you keep it in a fixed deposit first where you will not touch it and then take some time off to engage some quality traders that would train you fully in trading your coin, which if you know how to trade very well with necessary skills, you could be making $50k every month with this currency market situation, so I would advise to you take trading business up.

I only got Vardy and Salah this time around, I don't know how I got so bad Cheesy I mean Salah was expected in a game like this and figuring that out is not really that weird, mane or Salah usually scores in every game so if you say mane you are half right anyway or if you say Salah same thing.

Vardy is one of the best strikers in the league so finding that is not really that great neither. So at the end, finding 2 out of 7 is not really that big of a deal, I made probably the bare minimum, I don't know if you could get any worse than 2, if anyone did worse than 2 I fear they have no idea about premier league at all. I will aim at at least 5 next time, I know that is not much but I kinda feel like I have to prove myself I am not a newbie with the next time around.

great work from wolf.bet team to listen to feedback and improve accordingly

Yeah, that's what I like most about them, they listen carefully to their customers and add improvements accordingly.
Last time I said that I didn't notice the VIP button and here is what they did:

maybe one day if I could actually figure out to make some money eventually and get richer than I would be able to gamble here enough to be in top 30 as well.
I think it is the other way around. You should gamble to become richer  Grin
Lol, tried that, hence why I am not rich anymore, I used to have a ton of btc (back when btc was very little) and almost all of it went to gambling, of course I lost couple hundred dollars at most back in those days and nothing major but if I kept them as btc and not gambled they would have been a lot now Cheesy.

It is fine because I am not really looking to dwell on the past plus if I didn't gambled with it and it went anywhere near 500 bucks per btc I would have sold them anyway Cheesy. So, now I am looking to build a good portfolio and not only have a decent amount of money but also network with the right people so I could start some crypto thing.

Back on wolf.bet there is literally no one that listens to their customers anymore, its a shame because feedback from us would make website more fun for us and since we are the users we are the only feedback that matters, thankfully wolf.bet is not like the others.
5186  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What companies create portable cryptocurrency wallets? on: November 08, 2019, 07:14:36 PM
I want to believe that you are referring to hardware wallet here because that is the only cryptocurrency wallet that I am aware of that you can move round except there us another new technology which I am not aware of, and the company I that I know can still be trusted is Ledger Nano, although there are still very popular ones, but those are still the one that I have been using too that is very okay, and the good thing about some of these wallets is that they are very secured, it is very much difficult to hack these type of wallets.

I don’t know where you live but I think you can Google it to know exactly where you can purchase it from. In my country, it is even easy to purchase it from an ecommerce store online, which is where I got the first one from.

I was surprised when I logged in back to the Wolf.bet dice site, there are lots of improvements!

The top 30 can now be viewed, what more is we can toggle it.  There is the VIP system wherein we can rake back a certain percentage of the housed edge on out wagered amount.  Cool upgrade there wolf.bet!
Yeah, viewing the top 30 is a great improvement, I have always been wanting that top 30 thing for a long time and now we have it (great work from wolf.bet team to listen to feedback and improve accordingly) and it shows why we wanted the top 30, there was a lot of "hidden" players in top 10 that we weren't sure about the reality, but in top 30 there are a lot of players who we can see the names so it makes it more personal.

Additionally, I found out that I wasn't even close to being in top 30, I thought the numbers would go down significantly but it is too close to each other from one spot to another instead of steep falls from one another. Well, it is tough luck, maybe one day if I could actually figure out to make some money eventually and get richer than I would be able to gamble here enough to be in top 30 as well.
5188  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The Harsh Reality About The Current ICO Project on: November 08, 2019, 02:38:09 PM
If you feel cheated by the project that you are taking part in, that is normal. I also often experience it like that. I was once an investor in ICO which I think and my friends are good at. But in reality they only cheat and carry investors' money and are not responsible. their website is also dead and cannot be accessed. There are also those who make the project until the completion of softcap is reached but never listed on the exchange. The token becomes trash and has no price. As an investor or bounty hunter you must be smarter than a scammer. Need to study the project you want to follow so as not to be fooled again.
It is very easy hard to really know a scam project and even those that are very smart are still falling for scam. If you even see binance, you will know that the guy behind the project is a very intelligent guy with all the concept he has been coming up with which absolutely means that all the people he will attract to be working with him as a team are actually people that will also be very smart, but the issue here is that those scammers and hacker are very smart also, and you can see how they won binance by hacking them.

It is because it is getting difficult to identify a scam project that is no making many people to abstain totally from ICO projects thereby even affecting lots of genuine projects also, and they only purchase project that has already been established.
5189  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: (Yes or NO) The 2020s belong to DEXs on: November 07, 2019, 01:19:11 PM
DEX is the future. For now it is rather difficult to compete with cetralized exchange. Because of their greater prestige, trading volume too, and most recently they added the IEO feature. This makes them increasingly used by crypto activists. Now, large exchanges have started to make a lot of new DEX. This is a sign that the DEX era will soon develop because it is safer, without fake volume, and also buyers and sellers are connected directly without a third party.

Still there's a lot of things to happen, yes DEX is the future, but we don't know what will happen, is people going to trust them and use their exchange or not, so it depends on the people's preference. Although, DEX is not good for me as they will list a lot of shitcoins there, it is just for their own so that they can earn even in shitcoins.
For dex to become the future, we are still the one to determine it and like you said here, it depends on the level of trust that we have for them. Actually, dex exchanges has been a trustworthy platform as we all know that it is even difficult for hackers to go through it, but because there is an ownership of centralized exchanges, they are using the hype they can create to actually step on dexes and diverting the attention of people from it, so people don’t even use dex exchanges or us to even try them first and see how they will perform.

The whole thing will start from us first, we should encourage dexes by visiting the platform to at least try one or two trades and transactions, if we can do that, I am sure that majority of us would love what we actually see, and by doing so too, they will gradually get the popularity and the volume that is needed to drive the exchange forward.
5190  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to control your emotions while trading?👨🏼‍💻 on: November 07, 2019, 09:24:13 AM
Controlling your emotions while trading is most important thing which a trader cannot ignore if he want to survive in the market making profits.If trader gets panic in dump situation he will suffer loss or maybe he get away from market so he need to stay calm even in worst situations and hodl their coins to get high returns when price surge and bull run hit the market.
Panicking should even be the least that people should do when it comes to cryptocurrency trading or investment because bitcoin is not like Forex that when the market is going that, it could go so low and cut off the trading capital which may make the trader to lose his trade.

If bitcoin rice goes down, as long as the trader dos not panic sell, no trader has still lost, because when the price makes a recovery, they can still regain their capital back except for people that are trading on leverage which I don’t usually support. If we are not leveraging and we don’t panic sell, our trade will always work itself out provided we have some level of patience because some price recovery could really take time to recover the trader's money back.

Which ones do you recommend and why?
If it's possible those which aren't too expensive..
Appreciate the help!
I have been using blockfolio from inception now and I think that they have been very wonderful for me, which I dint think it involves money using them, except maybe I have not gotten to that stage, but form the year that I have been using block folio, I think that their service has been very few, and you can also try them out also, I am sure that in this section, if we are to look at the most popular one, it should be this block folio.

I remember that when I needed to have something like you want here too, many people that I have asked all advices that I go for the application, which I dint think I ever made the wrong choice choosing this application. This is what my friend has also choses and it also have some additional benefits that you will really need.
5192  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: About Coinsbit Exchange. on: November 07, 2019, 06:18:28 AM
--snip
Most of those new exchanges hardly even finds it to survive because it become difficult for them to get volume, and those new exchange that tried as much as possible to fake volume still would not get much attention needed because people have really learnt their lessons, and these lessons has made them wise to only pay attention to exchanges that are ranked the best in the market of which I think binance is number one of them, though there are so many exchange too that are really good such as kraken exchange, kucoin exchange, Coinbase and the rest of them all. This exchange that op mentioned, I am not even very sure if they will survive at all for any people no longer go for new exchange but the already existing ones for security sake.

We'll obviously try to make our sportsbook competitive. There's a few things that we have plans for but at the end of the day in this industry there are so many things that you can ultimately do relative to competitors.
Sportsbook is a totally game changer. There has been a lot of casinos adding sportsbooks these days, fortunejack for example is the first one that added sportsbook when they were just a casino. Now stake is working on adding as well. Mintdice as we heard from you guys from adding as well.

At the end of the deal when the casinos work hard and make a name for themselves it is much easier to add sportsbook and create some sort of safe bubble. When a new sportsbook comes out I wouldn't know if I could trust them or not, I would have no idea what to do, however at the end of the day if a great casino like fortunejack/stake/mintdice adds sportsbook then at least I know there is a trust going on there, for example mintdice is a platform that I love and trust, so why would I risk playing somewhere else.
5194  Economy / Gambling / Re: Stake.com | The Most Popular Bitcoin Casino | Sportsbook Launches November! 👽 on: November 07, 2019, 02:36:24 AM
Slots is weird when it comes to odds, like I see so many different high odds that I don't even know what the highest ever possible is. Like what is required to be the highest ever? If that hits what is the odds you get back? Normally, I am used to games where you set the odds and then you either win or lose, for example on dice you set 2x odds (just an example) and you either win or lose 50% of the time for example. Yet on slots you turn the slot and whatever you won in odds is pure surprise.

You could make 0.6x (not a total loss but you do not earn money) or you could make 100x as well, they are all surprise every time you gamble. That is how slots works and it is really a new thing to me, I am not used to it and I fear I will never be used to it neither.
5195  Economy / Gambling / Re: 🎲EarnBet.io - Licensed Casino Platform 🎲Provably Fair 🎲NOW ACCEPTING BTC ₿ on: November 06, 2019, 06:33:18 PM
Let's say GP is right (would be end of the world) and let's assume they are actually scammers who wants money from other people. Like the worst possible thing, earnbet is a full on scammer that steals money from people. Even if that is correct, which it is not, there is really no possible way to not market the casino at all. You can market the dividend part I am not against that and sure they should spend money on marketing the dividend part of the deal.

However, that doesn't mean that people shouldn't be aware of the casino part of it. They are not even promoting their own chat on their website and use telegram, a totally different part from website. At the end of the day even if they are scammers there is no reason not to promote the casino part and considering they are not scammers it is even better to market the casino part.
5196  Economy / Speculation / Re: Newbie looking for advice on: November 06, 2019, 05:59:21 PM
Without sentiment, I will say that you go all into bitcoin, the game of cryptocurrency is not going to end now, you need to start using bitcoin to increase your holding while you will still get the chance to invest in altcoin later in future.

If you commit the $300 to bitcoin now, and bull run start making your investment to grow by 3x at minimum, you can take from that profit then to invest in altcoin, because bitcoin just witness its own bull run before it will then go on consolidation for other altcoins to start surging in price too. If I ask you to out your money in altcoin now, you may not be able to be patient for it to grow because I don't see any development for altcoins now until after the halving of bitcoin and during bitcoin bull run that it will get some consolidation.
5197  Economy / Speculation / Re: One more dump before halving? on: November 06, 2019, 05:28:52 PM
Honestly speaking the bitcoin market is good as of now with slight improvement and not much dump except one particular dump before week or so which provided further pump, but are these manipulation just to for whales to cash out before the halving and then invest again at a cheaper value to get most profit of out it post halving? Are we going to witness major dump before halving?
It could be whales manipulation and I must confess to you that they really know how to play their games very well, they are really taking advantage of their financial strength, so there could still be a major dump ahead of the halving of next year which would make them to accumulate more of those coins, but now that we are beginning to study them and understand their ways of operating.

 I think what we should just be doing too right now is to accumulate anytime that they crash the market and then sell anytime that they pump the market till further notice when bitcoin will get stabilized and they will not be able to manipulate the market again, then, the real purpose of bitcoin establishment can be really achieved when all the coin has been mined.
5198  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin demand in economically volatile countries surges on: November 06, 2019, 02:01:05 PM
Could be said so. A lot of countries have been trying to let their people buy BTC so that they could possibly hoard coins for the upcoming halving. A lot of people are placing their eyes on BTC right now so I expect a huge amount of analysis and descriptions of the current state of BTC now and in the next, lets say, year I guess.
No government will want their citizens to hoard their wealth in a virtual currency that can be traded world wide but they cannot stop anyone from doing so but people are investing in bitcoin because they see an opportunity to hold their funds without any government policies and manipulations and they are confident in gaining a profit after the halving.
Government too are getting wiser now, they are actually not stopping anyone form the use of cryptocurrency for trading and to make money, infact that is what they like now and we can see how they are beginning to introduce tax too into the trading system, so instead of cutting off cryptocurrency, they are seriously encouraging it right now, so that they can be able to get more money through taxing, and this is because they are able to gain access to centralized exchanges that we have.

It is still good though, because if government do not have any access to taxing people, I am sure that by now, the heat of trying to ban it would have been much more than this, but since they have access to taxing the traders which will help the economy, they will promote it more now.
5199  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin Whales Are Selling BTC Before Market Crash: Peter Schiff on: November 06, 2019, 01:03:16 PM
many people have guessed bitcoin and predict the price but many have missed it,
in the telegram there are some BOT about bitcoin transaction information, we can see it there, if there are transactions with a lot of bitcoin we can predict whether the market will decline or not, that I think it's very helpful, I don't know if whales really sells all bitcoin, but we can see transactions so don't worry, we just follow the flow
No one is that stupid, especially whales. These are the people who like to be called as the owner of world’s most precious things. Bitcoin is now above all of other assets. It is impossible that whales will leave bitcoin. They never did. If any of them would commit such stupid act, he will be losing his present position. Such acts cannot hurt bitcoin for sure. If one whale leaves, other will takes it place.
People just like to sit down on their bed and imagine some things from their mind without fact and analysis, they make it known to the public and say it as if they are sure it is what is exactly happening. This is really a ridiculous thing to think that whales will be selling off their coin now that they are just accumulating.

If the op had said they are accumulating, I would have seen sense in it because what whales does is to look for the available opportunities to actually buy bitcoin at a lower price which they wait for the coin to really grow before making any step to actually sell and of course, they will never sell all the portion of what they had accumulated, they will only sell the little that they can sell while they await bull run for the remaining one.
5200  Economy / Economics / Re: US Congressman: Facebook Should Adopt Bitcoin, Drop Libra Project on: November 05, 2019, 05:45:31 PM
I really do not understand the point behind regulating bitcoin. Before I proceed any further, I would like to say that bitcoin has worked for us and still helping the intelligent investors in its own free way. It does not need to find some way to work. Moreover, nobody who like economic control does not support this idea of regulation. As far as Libra case goes, no one provided clear points but indeed government is planning something.
I want to believe that the regulation of bitcoin that everyone is referring to is to regulate some of the activities that is surrounding it and not to regulate the technology itself because it will be impossible for the government to do so, but regulating bitcoin means that they will be able to establish a bod that will overseas all the activities of exchange that are involved in the exchange of bitcoin, so that it can be free of scammers.
 
All these regulations we are talking of is just to either allow or disallow a project and also constantly be looking at the projects that is being released on those exchanges as the case of Libra. They are having problem because government has seen that its use will be of a very big disaster to the economy which even regulating it may not work.
