You need to talk about the technology [the blockchain system and how it works] to tech-based forums perhaps, and I'd probably talk about the possibility of profiting to the majority of people. Money brings interest, of course!
Talking about anything else would probably make them turn away from the bitcoin community.

Simply, I'll invest it in cloud mining and trading alt coins
Alt coins is good but you cannot expect good returns from cloud mining, I don't have high trust for them, in long run they will surely run away with your money. Especially with the halving nearing, the profitability will decline quite a bit. It'll take longer to reach ROI if you decide to join right now. I'll throw everything in a safe investment plan, and I'll live of the returns. I'll also say you thank you of course  . What's a safe investment plan? Anything that advertises itself as "safe" or "secure" is likely to be the opposite of that. There would still be a risk of having your "wager" decline to 0. I will use for trading n lend it in btcjam or poloniex  Yeah i think only trading can give you a good profit with your bitcoin.. and already tried trading its low irks and high profit.. If you are good in trading then that is the key to success, as price fluctuations will always help you in earning some profits at regular intervals. You need to be able to read the trends, but in instances where there are market manipulations, it becomes purely based on luck. You don't know if a sudden increase will decline after a minute or continue to strive upwards or not. |

I also think some strategy based games have pretty good chance to make good profit there, sportsbook betting has good chance if we make good research and have knowledge about the abilities of playing teams than there is good chance for bets to go into positive way.
The biggest question here is how long your strategy will be so accurate for the changes of team behaviour or for a particular player's performance. So, the strategy based gambling also turns into depending on your lack. Yes gambling always based on your luck factor. The strategies are working for you at very low percentage. The main factor which decides your profits or losses with a gambling is always luck only. actually in sportbetting you can win continuously without relying on luck specially if you know what is the capabilities of the teams, so saying the in gambling everything relies on luck is a bit ridiculous. There is still a small reliant on luck, for anything can happen in the grand scheme of things. In fact, there could be fraudulent actions where a team intentionally loses (subtly, perhaps) to another in order to let someone win a bet that doesn't seem reasonable. Even strong research can not lead to a complete guarantee as to what the result would be. |

Gambling (not talking about the websites/casinos) is a method to make money without any effort. If we use our knowledge and skill (like a project that as its risks involved), it is considered gambling but here it's your luck and hard work that pays off.
Dice games, sports betting and casinos are different types of gambling methods which are merely for entertainment. Gambling can be also investing in ponzis and considered an investment.
I like to consider the essence of gambling to be everywhere we are. The factors matter in all situations in life and we take a risk with every moment that we continue our existence. Every single choice leads to a consequence, and [quantum mechanics tells us] there is a small chance that something unexpected can happen, like your hand going through a wall. Though this probably isn't the form of orthodox gambling you think of when you hear the word, any action has a certain risk of consequences after it. If you decide to sway slightly left in a war zone, chaos theory could lead to a whole variety of events with risks involved. If you decide to cross the street, either looking or not, both have their equal risks. What's the chance that the slow car coming down the street could have a drunk driver who doesn't see you and rams into you? Gambling is life. |

You should just withdraw all when you won so much, now you have lost so much  One of the largest issues with gambling is that you don't know when your luck ends. You could, after all, begin a huge loss streak starting from bet #1. As soon as you hit that "bet" button the odds are against you and [statistically] you are already at a loss. Even if someone has a 0 profit net, just starting into gambling, they could lose all their bankroll that they are wagering and be at a net loss. More people lose than win. |

6.6 -> 7, etc. old thread.
I decided to gamble 7, made it to 9 and cashed out.
Deposited 9 again and did martingale. Went to 2 BTC.
OH SHIT, I thought. Did one more bet, 11 BTC! A bit more and now I'm sitting at 9K AUD
Thank you betking
You know how lucky u are to go from 2 back to 9 then even to 11. Nice ! Glad to see greed never got u. OP was affected by greed, though. If you were looking at it reasonably, you should have simply taken your winnings when you withdrew 9 BTC. Why deposit ALL of your money again? If you really want to play again, then play with... I'd say, 20% of your winnings? That way, if you lose, you still keep a reasonable profit and have sated your thirst for gambling. |

If you say BTC 0.1 faucet you give people the impression they can claim 0.1 BTC or 10 million satoshi. Either you have the highest faucet ever by X1000, or you made some kind of typo The intention was to create a "fake" gambling platform to test out strategies. However, this is unnecessary as different strategies can be mathematically "solved" through using statistical analysis. The only thing that I would like to have here is just a guest mode, without registering an account. |

It would be a sickness because you have the power to get rid of it in your life. As with most sicknesses you can not just cut it out. If your will power is strong enough you can if you find it taking over your life or simply ask for help to stop.
It all comes down to moderation and sheer will power. Which most of anybody that isn't mentally unstable has in their possession already.
The issue with that is even if you have strong resolve, the urge to continue grows and it becomes exponentially more difficult to stop the addiction. Once you've tipped that threshold, it is an uphill struggle to get back on your feet. |

Why not divide it. Keep the .5btc on your wallet and take a risk on .5btc on other ways on how to grow your bitcoin like gambling, trading, etc.
Let's face it. Gambling is not an investment, nor the optimal way of trying to earn money. You don't want to gamble all your money, and while investing is also risky losses can be diminished in the process with gambling your loss is definite. Well, it is. Gambling is a form of investment, and investing is gambling. You're putting in a certain amount of money at a certain risk and expecting a certain return. That's basically the same as if you were to invest in any programs that you could find, and though a typical investment seems less risky, gambling is (for one) convenient and investments could also collapse before you know it. If you were to invest your money in something, there still isn't a guarantee that you'll profit. |

Why is storing Bitcoin against Bitcoin? I think that it is the same as with money the banks and stuff do not that you safe your money at home because they want the money to go around so the economy can go on.
Holding bitcoins is not the same as letting a bank hold your cash. Firstly, the bank will use your money to loan to others and give others money (so in essence, it is an investment) and secondly, you would give it to a centralized system that pretty much controls the currency. This can "sort of" help the economy because the money is being used, but with bitcoins, if you simply hold them in your wallet, nothing is being circulated and thus there is no demand for them. |

Actually i never saw a man, who has rich from Gambling?
I m not playing gambling because i saw a lot of people who has lost everything in gambling.
So i want to ask if anyone is here how has rich from GAMBLING ??
Practically no one can become rich in gambling. Some might get a massive hit from jackpot or by a rare outcome of a bet. But it won't matter to the gambler as he'll then try to bet continuously with higher bids which might eventually lead to a loss of that previous profit. So overall, there's no chance of becoming rich in gambling. Adding on to this: you never quite know /when/ to stop, and thus there is no clear indication of when a gambler will lose all their money. If one gains a large profit, it's unlikely for them to stop because they are addicted to the act of gambling (most likely) by that point and thus will not stop at a certain point. The temptation will definitely lead one astray unless they have incredible willpower and the resolve to quit at any point. |

Well, it is not true. Google allows to add gambling or casino apps. Look at the apps of Zynga, Miniclips or others. Apple also allows such apps, even it need to fullfil some prerequisits. So, it is possible to release betting apps on these platforms. Thanks, I am aware of that most sites are offering adapted sites for mobile devices but the thing is, I travel a lot and on roads the cellular network is mostly very bad. Mobile sites are still consuming a lot of traffic because they are mostly not optimized in data transfer rates but only for user interface. I made the experience that mobile apps do usually need much less data transfer to work properly.
Yes that is true as mobile app doesn't require to load whole site images and all those big things as they were pre packed in apps. But as we all know google play store is quite cruel towards accepting apps like related to gambling, i think they are not accepting even sports betting app considering them as gambling app. So bad luck, we don't have app for betting. Actually when a gambling site have an ios/android app they do not need to put it on app store/play store because it is not allowed. The site can share the app on their main site and players will be able to download it directly. But I believe that that type of gambling isn't with real money, but rather their fake online currency, right? Zynga has no way of turning their currency into real money that you can use for transactions. Albeit there are microtransactions with real money to gain their currency, there isn't the reverse. I think that may be why the apps are allowed. |

He seems to have avoided the subject of everything that made bitcoin good and focused purely on the volatility. (And of course talks about the dollar as a comparison to bitcoins).
Either he wants to bearishly spread dialogue about bitcoin, or does little to none research (that is in the most basic level)

Indeed, well for some people its easy to stop and for some people its that they never can't stop by themselves.
I think social control could really help you if you are just doing it right and tell some relatives to help you.
It can be helpful, but I think it won't stop true gambling addicts. If someone is truly addicted to gambling bringing relatives into the game might rather destroy the relationship with them than resulting in getting rid of the addiction. The best recommendation would be to seek professional help from a psychologist who is specialized in dealing with gambling addiction. Sometimes, gambling is used to offset a feeling of low self-worth - which obviously only works on a winning streak... Gambling can be fun, but only if you do it for the thrill and do not have the intention to generate an income from it. ya.ya.yo! A true gambling addiction would be an insane lust for gambling, to the level where you're willing to do immoral things just to fuel the addiction. Perhaps when friends and family attempt to help the person who is going through it, they may indirectly help him fuel the addiction (through the stealing of money or gifted funds) but I would say that a hobby would help someone be distracted from gambling. If their addiction is purely playing (not even to gain money, but just gambling with the knowledge that they are gambling) and spend much more than necessary then it could be a sign of someone truly being addicted to the act. |

Hrm... I'm not so sure I like this update I was enjoying the 0.05-0.08% house edge and playing with that. Now it'll actually be significantly more difficult for me to fight against the odds! (Though, let's not talk about the horrible luck I had a while back) Well, the house edge wasn't affecting the odds really. Mostly, low house edge meant the rewards were high on the first bet, then, extremely too low on the other bets. Yet, everything got fixed.  Well, I knew that betting only once was superior to betting multiple times. Now it's the opposite, rather. However, I liked it before because that was the lowest house edge at the time You fixed my way of gambling at nearly-fair odds |

The help center is very important cause it provide professional help, however, family and friend support is equally important cause they will be the one around you for 90% of the time.
Still family is the best remedy, if you seek advise from an institution or professionals they charges fees or maybe minimal expenses but in times of distress like having gambling addiction family is the best because they offer real advise and they will really care for you as the real family offers unconditional love. I've read somewhere that pertaining to addiction, some of it is resolved through familial or friendly contact. Perhaps the social relationships can revitalize you and distract you from gambling. I think this was something about soldiers in the Vietnam War being addicted to heroin but then once they returned to their families they stopped using it. Hobbies and social connections/events with friends and family should help gambling addictions. Gambling could give you some money initially, though statistically you're at a loss from the very first bet. |

You're funded by ads and you pay the users with those funds... That sounds exactly like a faucet, not a gambling game (or an investor-based game, at least the free mine anyway) so what would be the point if you can use the exact same amount of time (and money through electricity and internet fees) to go to any old faucet rotator found in the Micro Earnings section?
