No real guide here. If your investments collapse what do you do? You are typing this as if cryptos are a guaranteed profit in the future and they may very well not be. There is always the possibility that a new cryptocurrency arises with far better technology than the rest making all the others obsolete and making your investment worth 0$

Thank You but I am definitely NOT the same person, I have only 1 account and it has over 1500 followers..Smiley


No, I meant that accounts like @indotaa have 1 follower AT TOTAL and it's pointless to do audit.
All of the re-audited account are with very good stats.

I don't really understand, my twitter audit https://www.twitteraudit.com/b1tco1n_m4st3r is the same as before, shouldn't the new audit you did appear, otherwise what's the point of this? Are you trying to scam people?
523  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to control greed on gambling? on: October 02, 2017, 09:30:39 PM
For me it is simple. There is no control when it is about gambling.

You are wrong, there's control in gambling. Only the gambler is the one that can do that control and if you are thinking that you can't do it, then expect what will be the output of that way of thinking. And for sure that will be a negative result because you don't have plans of controlling and instead of looking some better ways you are judging yourself that you can't do it or there's no way for you to control greed.

If you could control yourself you wouldn't be gambling in the first place, everyone knows you will very likely lose the money. You never really know when you are about to lose or win so after you start betting there is no such thing as controlling yourself because you don't control the odds, you might very well just lose very fast or win a lot, how do you manage your ''greed'' in those cases? You cant.

Haven't tried to gamble yet using Bitcoin as crypto. But i gamble in land base casino for fun only because i knew that i will not win so i am just doing it for past time btw what i play in casino are slot machine and roulette.

Really? You play slots or roulette without any money involved, like you don't win or lose anything ever? I find that quite interesting, how do you have fun playing slots or the roulette, do you just look at the roulette go and then get excited when your number hits or how does it work?

We are at 4.4k already even with all the news from chine or jamie dimon. This really shows that the bitcoin community just doesn't give a fuck about them. This is making bitcoin so much stronger, I mean if we can recover from that so quickly it means that the price will only go up from here.
526  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your reason to gamble? Fun or profit? on: October 02, 2017, 12:39:53 PM
Does anyone actually gamble for fun? I mean you have fun because there is a chance to win/lose money, I don't think anyone plays dice without money just to see a number appear on the screen. There is no rush because you are not winning anything and there is also no risk of loosing. Some games can be fun without money, like poker or blackjack, usually games that involve some skill are fun, otherwise I don't think anyone plays roulette just for fun.
527  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Vs Bitcoin Cash on: October 02, 2017, 11:37:15 AM
Bitcoin Cash pros: A big argument for Bitcoin Cash is that because it allows for much larger blocks than Bitcoin Core, this will allow greater throughput (~24tx/sec max) & less backlog as well as lower fees. This lets Bitcoin Cash scale more and their argument would be it is more useful for peer to peer, for commerce and just everything. Additionally it does not include Segregated Witness (SegWit) (which some view as a positive since some see SegWit as less secure or having legal issues).

Bitcoin Cash cons: Against Bitcoin Cash we have arguments like it is more centralized due to small less well known development team and due to fewer people running Bitcoin Cash full nodes and higher cost to run a full node. It does not (yet) solve transaction malleability (SegWit) and so existing Lightning Network (LN) implementations won't be run on top of Bitcoin Cash at this time.

Bitcoin Core pros: Established large development team, robust network of nodes (less centralized), transaction malleability fix (SegWit) allows current Lighting Network to run on top of it. SegWit allows for double the existing transaction throughput of the current Bitcoin Core limit of ~3tx/sec to ~6tx/sec max once enough people are using SegWit style transactions.

Bitcoin Core cons: Even with SegWit transaction throughput is limited. Centralized control of development from Blockstream and very small group of prominent devs that effectively have control over changes. Some toxic developers. SegWit some believe is less secure or can lead to problems (this is of course highly disputed). Reliance on unproven solutions like LN to increase throughput/scale beyond block size limits.
(Note also that the Bitcoin Core chain may undergo a further hard fork later this year when SegWit2x forks off that chain. But no time here to describe those implications.)


A fair assessment.

But let's add to Bitcoin Cash Pros:
* 1162x lower fees than Kore BTC at the time of writing (source https://cashvscore.com/).
* Rapid adoption by exchanges and businesses
* resurrection of all old BTC use cases that were killed by high fees and long confirmation times (Satoshi Dice, reddit tipping, micropayments, are back etc.)

Also I think you're leaning too hard on transaction malleability. It was used by Mt Gox as an excuse for the stolen coins there, really they were just stolen. I haven't seen a report of malleability resulting in theft or losses. Nobody accepts zero-conf payments.

I know this forum is not a particularly favorable environment for BCH. But let's please just try to be honest and objective.

Ok, that's true for now, the fees are lower but are they going to be lower forever? Obviously exchanges adopted bitcoin cash but that's not a pro compared to bitcoin itself. It's true that there is a fight between bitcoin and bitcoin cash and both sides will support their coin no matter what.
528  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What was your biggest casino win? on: October 02, 2017, 11:31:43 AM
I went from 0.004 up to around 2 bitcoins once, I lost everything in the end. That's gambling, the more you keep playing the bigger the chances to lose, some people think that you lose because you didn't know when to stop but that's simply not true. You could have easily lost in your first bet, what then, stopping before even starting?
529  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can maths help you win in gambling ? on: October 02, 2017, 11:29:26 AM
Whenever there is a house advantage/edge it means that there is no way to truly beat the game at least long term. Some casino games have a skill element, where the player makes decisions; such games are called "random with a tactical element." While it is possible through skilful play to minimize the house advantage, it is extremely rare that a player has sufficient skill to completely eliminate his inherent long-term disadvantage. Keno can have house edges up to 25%, slot machines can have up to 15% that's just huge and yet a lot of people still play them, why? Addiction and not understanding math.

Bitcoin cash is nothing but another copied cryptocurrency. It's ultimately a scam, it's value is only as high as it is because it was distributed to a lot of users, as you can see now, the price is crashing hard even tho the other cryptocurrencies are going up, there is really no substance to bitcoin cash. I wouldn't buy any.

532  Economy / Speculation / Re: When will it fall? on: October 01, 2017, 11:43:52 AM
I believe bitcoin price will increase more so if you have extra money in your pocket I think this is the right time to buy bitcoin and for sure you will be happy for the result because you will earn profit in the future. I would like to suggest its better if you hold your bitcoin because if you sell it now you lose some profit and that possible you earn. But it depends to you what will you do to your bitcoin.

Right now may not be the best moment. It's better to wait for november and see what happens with the fork, it's fine if you are buying now to sell but if you are planning to hold it might not be the best idea.
533  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can maths help you win in gambling ? on: October 01, 2017, 11:23:05 AM
If people understood math no one would be gambling. In most games, the odds are stacked against you to begin with, and there's nothing you can do about it. There are games that you can beat by ''cheating'' like blackjack card counting but even that today is close to impossible. In sports betting math can and will help you if you apply it correctly, you can find many stories/interviews online of people who actually win money in those games and they will tell you that they spend hours and hours analyzing the games. Just like anything, you need a lot of time and effort to make it work but yeah, math will definitely help even in shitty games.

536  Economy / Speculation / Re: When will it fall? on: September 30, 2017, 09:27:03 PM
The segwit2 hardfork in november will definitely make the price fall, days before it's scheduled and even if it doesn't happen. Now I'm not going to talk about the process itself because even if nothing happens it's still going to have a big impact on the market and not only bitcoin. I personally will not be holding bitcoins when it gets close to the date.
537  Economy / Economics / Re: Is NOW the best time to buy or enter in bitcoin? on: September 29, 2017, 10:59:14 PM
To be fair, no one knows, whenever the price jumps up everyone thinks is not a good time to buy but history shows that bitcoin has done nothing but go up. It seems to me that 2017 is a very good time to buy because bitcoin has shown it's strength and kept his value even after bad news from china. Bitcoin is still an investment and investments are always risky otherwise they wouldn't be called investments but yeah, personally I think it's a good time to buy bitcoins if you are planing on holding them for a long time.
538  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to control greed on gambling? on: September 28, 2017, 02:22:52 PM
That's not true, there is no such thing as controlling greed. Say you bet 100 times and you win all 100 but then you lose the 101, you would tell yourself that you were greedy and you should have stopped however that's not always the case, in fact you can very easily just lose in your first bet or bets, what would you tell yourself then? I should have not played? You never know when you are going to lose or win, you could stop at your 100 bet not knowing that the next 50 bets were also going to be wins.
539  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know when to stop? on: September 27, 2017, 12:45:13 PM
There is no such thing as when to stop because you could lose all your money in your first bet/bets. When you lose your money after 100 bets people would say, you should have stopped, if instead of 100 the number is 50 they would just say the same thing, you cannot know when to stop, otherwise you would be able to win constantly. Also another huge problem is that if you win, say, 1 bitcoin and then you stop, unless you stop forever, stopping for a day or two is not going to matter. If you stop playing when you win but then you keep gambling the next days is the same as not stopping.
