5421  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin make Banks disappear? on: November 05, 2016, 03:50:24 AM
Banks will not disappear I believe, but here in Scandinavia (and probably other places too), banks have been inspired by the way a bitcoin transaction is processed and have launched instapay services and apps that makes bank transfers obsolete. It also omits bank fees on smaller transactions.

A step in the right direction at least! Grin
No way it will happen, banks will always be here as it's supported by the government, they created it for the people to comply with the rules of a certain state and fiat is the only legal tender that is allowed by the government when we transact, our financial standing are measure by our liquidity or the amount of money we are holding.
and thats the complete reason why this statement will happen bank cant be disappear in any how government has been recognize stability in terms of hold fiat without banks it will be harder for that nation to continue its progress.
5422  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If you were rich, would you still gamble? on: November 05, 2016, 03:47:24 AM
A lot of people here gamble to become rich, but some do it for fun.

The question is, if you wake up tomorrow with 50 million dollars, would you still gamble for fun, or would you forget about gambling and do other stuff? Personally I think I would still gamble. I do it now, and I know I realistically will never get rich off gambling, because I barely do it and I don't risk much money, just for fun sometimes, to test my luck.
So if I had a lot of money, I would do bigger gambles, but they would still enter in the "for fun" amount (for the new 50 million standard). For example, gambling 1K a month would be irrelevant, and winning with a 1K bet can give you big rewards if you are lucky. It would still be fun, in fact more fun, and it would be as non risky as it is now, in terms of going financially bankrupt.

I liked your answer. I also do the same

Wow if i woke up with 50M dollars.. I would not gamble it.  I would just simply go on a long vacation and educate myself how to grow it and multiply it. 
If I have that amount - i will go to Law School... and invest in myself some more.
good thinking mate finding more ways to grow your money would be much more fun and it will somehow move you away from gambling especially if you find that way from your interest it will focus your mind in what you love and make you more successful.
5423  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: November 05, 2016, 03:37:32 AM
yeah agree with you all, because of our greedy so gambling make us addicted
fun reason on gambling is not true reason for gambling make us addicted
because gambling is risk activity, but sometimes risk activity is funny thing for some peoples

There is some reasons which make gambling so much addictive things the more we get greedy than we lost the control and thinking that kind gambling is very easy way to make money for our needs, so this kind of behavior is really risky and that is why we get addicted to this.

We think it's going to be easy to win every time. It's a false idea but we got it in our mind and cannot get rid of it very easy. It's very addictive too, of course.. But this false idea gets us greedy each time.
It is really not easy to win each time you play gambling, it is always depend of a game, if the game is more on strategy and you know how to play it then for sure you can earn money in a short time, but once that you just have to rely on your luck it will be hard for you to win the game.
thats the logic there mate the more you know the gambling that you are playing the chances of winning is bigger but if just playing and only relying from your luck its not easy to win and you will keeps on chasing your loses and make it more and more.
5424  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The House always wins. on: November 05, 2016, 03:32:29 AM
Most of the time yes the house always wins. But sometimes whales beats the house because they have lots of bankroll to use for recover. For me and others who have limited bankroll, The house will always win against us unless you know when to stop when you win something. Casino are not created to give money but instead casino are created to get money from people who loves to gamble.
House is not always win but most of the time the house will win,but when the player win at gamble they don't exposed it,  but it is true that casino and gambling site is the place for fun not for looking profit because the house got better odds in winning
the house design to win but if gambler like us knows how to control and not being greedy we can also win against the system little by little as a system created by human so better to think that we are still more intelligent against it he only dont have emotions so thats our problem.
5425  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin is Becoming a Global Currency on: November 05, 2016, 03:26:14 AM
Bitcoin has gained global popularity due to its nature of transactions. It is very easy to transact with bitcoin and there are no elaborate procedures involved. It can also not be traced easily that is why many people prefer using it. This feature has made it to be liked by many people thus its likelihood of becoming a global currency is high.

Though it is liked and used by some percent of people in almost most of the countries in the world but still there is a long way for it to go for becoming a complete global currency, as there are still not a lot of people using or knowing about bitcoin if we see the population of the world and the users database of bitcoin we would know that we are still so far from that place.
well if theres a smoke theres always fire behind so when people from that place start using btc they should introduce it to much bigger audience that way we are also helping the chain to continue to grow up the more we invited to join btc investment the more value it will gives to this currency and for sure it can be globally in this coming new era.
5426  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling made for kids???? on: November 05, 2016, 03:24:05 AM
Normally gambling is only for adult but the problem of bitcoin is anonymous so they can't stop kids from gambling.
but i don't know why playing dice for example is like a kid game :p there is some games is not for kid like casino and others.
maybe it could damage the kids mind when he will interact with adult in gambling games.
I think they can play dice with a board of snake and ladder game, but with a dice game that is also money involve for kids, that is already that good for kids, so for those parents who is out there that didn't want to make their children addicted into it, supervise them so that they will not get hooked with it.
Without money involve, they are just playing not gambling. Kids will have more fun if they play a lot of games and it will help them develop their childhood as a children. As parents we need to support them on that as it is our responsibility to raise them for good but never make them learn how to play or gamble for money, there's a right time for everything.
i agree as they are still in the developing stage they should be guided with good moral information gambling is not for them its for those who can manage self control and how to completely treat is as a source of entertainment for some time.

5428  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you think bitcoin is one new step for sucess. on: November 05, 2016, 03:20:17 AM
Define success. If you expect BTC ll become every day currency, this is not going to happen. If you expect it to become an important store of values, this has already happened. So I d say it has already positioned itself as a very important financial derivative.

 Shocked I was going to ask this... "define success"

For sure we can see a lot of people here trying to be rich with bitcoin and what they are doing? colecting cents on faucets, investing on ponzi schemes, for me that's not success...
yes becasue thats just a small part of how to earn btc but for those who's involve to alt trading for sure they already getting enough earnings and possibility to gain even more after they successfully learn the system, me as a beginner i tend to look for more chances inside trading alts and making me more involved inside this forum for more  info.

5430  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling should be considered as a Sickness!! on: November 05, 2016, 03:16:19 AM
Gambling is not a sickness but a decease that ruins someone lives...
Too much gambling makes a person do bad habits by not being able to do what he have to do as a normal person...
So if you have gambling addiction you better need some help...

Its not either  a sickness or disease  because gambling is just a game  and  the one who would be responsible is the player or  gambler itself. He  knows already on the risk would happen when they tend  to gambling is  the first place.  Gambling sickness is considered as   gambling addiction  which could  really make things wrecked up.
Yeah it depends on the one playing if he's going to let gambling turn ibto addiction. Gambling addiction is the one that's making people broke not gambling
I've got your point and I am agree with it. Gambling for me is a game and that is not going to be a sickness, the person that is addicted in gambling that is the one that will be considered as sickness.
Gambling is purely design for gamblers to have fun but you cannot control the others who do gamble for the sake of making money, they have a high hopes that they can win in gambling although the odds does not favor them. Really hard to think that all of us will win because it's impossible.
because if that happen there's no more casino that will open they will only lose their bankrolls and they are not design to make charity here
they putting business to earn and aiming for many many more.

5432  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Controlling your temper in gambling on: November 05, 2016, 03:12:00 AM
Some people shouldn't gamble at all, simple truth not many gamblers will acknowledge.
If you have addictive personality or have trouble with managing your stress and anger in general, or specifically during your gambling session - it is better to not gamble at all.
Most likely you will lose if you do not have the right discipline needed in gambling, you might end up losing a big amount of money because you will lose control when you are gambling. Better focus in other games as for sure there are more entertaining games aside from gambling.
yeah right gambling is not a good source of entertaining it can cause more stress if you cant control emotion it will wrecked your life for sure
chasing loses will make more loses to come i think you should think about this matters before you start to gamble.
5433  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Season on: November 05, 2016, 03:06:20 AM
LA Lakers Vs Golden State Warriors I think Golden State Warriors -9.5 points is good to take risk there and good pick as for me.

Lines looks so deceiving, I may pass on this one or just bet on the warriors small time. Lakers have been playing good basketball lately but you cannot discount the ability of the warriors as they have a good rest in the OKC game when the game resulted to a lopsided win by the warriors.

I think they want to maintain their good start so probably a good play is on the first half, that has been the trend so far.
i guess -9.5 can be safe if warriors played the same game they had against okc, let see the game started now. good luck

I predict that BLRY won't overtake the price of Trumpcoin before the election!


You're probably right, but AFTER the election will be a much different story Wink
If the election will turn for hillary for sure some movements will empower trumps price value of this coin can be double let all see and wait for it.
5435  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Drug free in the Philippines on: November 04, 2016, 10:25:28 AM
Philippines chose its president and its own development path. To build a new, need to completely destroy the old. Now there is this destruction. It is very unpleasant, but it needs to survive. I am confident that the president will make his country prosperous

There are no destruction but only renovations. The mass killing were done by the drug syndicates to cover their marks. The new president is not focused on the failures of the past rather thinking on the new ways to evolve and to lift up the country from the shores of poverty and corruption. In just months of his administration many has changed and improved, government services has improved a lot and people are beginning to feel it. Soon if Drug is not eradicated it will be lessened by 90%.
Thats more possible atleast lessen it up would make a good flow the lessen addicted to drugs the safer philippines can be our president is really doing it great for most of us filipinos.
5436  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin is Freedom on: November 04, 2016, 10:20:57 AM
I believe bitcoin is freedom, freedom in terms of policy and rules.
We can make any transactions, deposit and withdrawal as fast we
could. As bitcoin is becoming increasing its demands so people
could earn easily. Likewise, bitcoin is freedom because of easy use
and hassle free.
Thats right and more and more people are noticing this freedom in terms of internet currency this easy system that allowed us to transact anonymously really gives us freedom aside from the earnings that also allowed us to get bigger profits.

5438  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: November 04, 2016, 09:07:21 AM
It's hard to say which is more important, both are required. But if you ask me, I would say that having savings is more important, given the fact that having savings you can handle your expenses and even invest.

You got it, both of them are important and needed. Because you can't even invest if you don't have savings and what you are going to do with your profit if you are not going to save it or unless you will invest it again. But I'm a bit more focus with saving because I used to save daily and I just wanted to be always in safe haven.
much better to atleast put some inside investment like trading or lending its also a good ways to grow your savings just needs to get some knowledge about whatever investment you are going to enter.

5440  Economy / Economics / Re: Why do you buy Bitcoins? on: November 04, 2016, 08:57:46 AM
I buy bitcoin To control my money and I buy to let it sit in my wallet and wait for prices to reach higher before I started to sell them and earn a good amount of profit.

I have the same strategy. I buy Bitcoin to when the price for them will be high - sell and earn a good amount of money
its just little earnings if you dont have huge amount of btc, much better to use it inside alt tradings buy low price btc then use it inside alt trading to grow.
