5741  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Mobile phone vs. laptop vs. tab...what's your preferred device for day trading? on: August 18, 2021, 02:56:45 PM
If you are a pro trader, you can use any device because the device is just a tool for you to trade. It does not matter if you use a mobile phone or laptop or tab because you can analyze using one of them.

I prefer to use a laptop or computer but I also use the phone because I install an app such as the Binance app and other things to help me trade.

But day trading needs more skills as the market will different day by day. So without having the right skills, you will hard to analyze, no matter if you use a mobile phone or laptop or tab, because that will not help you analyze.

That is what the young generation should do for their lives. They can prepare their future from now on, and those kids did the greatest thing for their lives. I am sure they will not have a financial problem in the future and that story amazed me because those kids are aware of cryptocurrency. It is good that their family supports them in mining ethereum until they can make a lot of money.

If more kids are aware of the new technologies and they know how they should do and what they need to do, I am sure we will see many richest people from the young generation and they will live happily and maybe they will retire at a young age.

Safe moon shiba inu With the advent of coins in the market, do they pretend to be extremely popular among the people?  Or do those coins add some value to the market?
 But their prices are very low.
 Have such coins stabilized in the market in a few years?
As we do not know what will happen in the future for Shiba Inu and Safe Moon, we do not have to select that coin for our long-term investment. We do not even know if the price can increase higher in the future or it will be like that as Shiba Inu is one of the meme coins while Safe Moon, I do not know much about that.

You should know that if you invest in those coins, you are ready to gamble with that because we can not predict the future. But if you check on Dogecoin, that will be different than Shiba Inu because many big investors have had this coin from a long time ago and it can increase so high this year. I choose Shiba Inu than Safe Moon because I think Shiba Inu are more popular than Safe Moon and I gamble for some amount to hold Shiba Inu Grin
5744  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Economic Costs of Gambling on: August 18, 2021, 12:29:31 PM
I fully support your point of view. If a person is not able to restrain himself while gambling, spending more and more money from his budget, it is better to give up gambling completely and never return to it, because such behavior sooner or later will lead to serious problems.
If he can do that, then that will be better for him. Otherwise, he will still play gambling games without stopping for a while or even quitting as soon as possible. That behaviour can lead us to have a bigger passion for playing gambling and winning more money, but the fact will not be the same as what we want. But spending more budget from what he can afford will not be recommended for him as he will not know if he can win or will lose more than he can expect. The cost of playing gambling will become bigger if he can not realize the potential of losing money.
5745  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What lie did you tell? on: August 18, 2021, 12:05:25 PM
I can not remember what lies I already did to play gambling because that was long ago. But if you lie for just playing gambling, that will not be easy, especially if you lose all of the money and do not have a right reason why you lose the money.

The first time, maybe it looks easy to win some money, but then, the dealer will not let you win for more and will make you lose the money. We do not know if they cheat on us or that it is just coincidentally, but that really happens to us and we only regret what we already did while we will hard to recover the losing money.
5746  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The connection between gambling and addiction behaviours? on: August 18, 2021, 11:29:23 AM
Maybe the gambling pattern can lead to alcohol because when they go to an offline casino, they can ask for a drink and the bartender will give them alcohol available on that casino. Maybe if they drink one glass will not be a problem, but if they also drink while playing gambling, that can trigger them to get drunk. Once they are drunk, they will not see or think clearly, which can lead them to lose more money. If they do that for a long time, let say for a year, there are possibilities for them to get addicted to gambling and alcohol at the same time.

The problem will be bigger if they consume cocaine as a "calm down" medicine to reducing their tension, they will become addicted, which can lead to a crime if they really need money. But we do not know the truth as we can only say without experience, and I think more patterns can appear along with that activity.
5747  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Exposed to children on: August 18, 2021, 11:02:36 AM

The technology is like a knife that has two faces. If we can use it with the right, we will get the benefits, but we can drag into a crime if it is not.

Yes, it happened in many places. I see not just gambling, but many are too open about sex and sarcasm and can not respect older people. I do not know if their parents do not teach about that, but I realize that it is because of a wrong association with their friends.

Hopefully, parents can realize that their kids are too important because if they can teach good to their kids, they will have children who are devoted to their parents.

I agree with your thoughts, that why parents should really be able to supervise and direct their children properly in every use of the internet today, if parents are careless in providing good education for children, it will certainly make the child have bad behavior later , especially now that the government recommends doing online learning, and children get the freedom to use their laptops, smartphones or tablets and if there is no strict supervision of course they will access bad things in between their study time, in my opinion, 80% of children today are smarter in accessing the internet than their parents.
You are right. I agree that 80% of children are smarter than their parents, so when they access the internet, besides doing online learning at their home, they also play games that can make them addicted and forget their duty as a student. I rarely find children who learn from the internet than those who play games or I can say the number of them will be bigger for those who play games than studying.

We can imagine what will happen to them if they visit the gambling games coincidentally. Maybe they will invite their friends to play gambling games together at one of their homes because their parents are too busy with their work.
5748  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Currency is not the same price, you can buy low and sell high profit? on: August 18, 2021, 10:29:59 AM
Recently, the price of Bitcoin has fluctuated sharply, and arbitrage windows have appeared on many exchanges. The price of Bitcoin on Binance is US$47,000, while on some exchanges in South Korea, the price of Bitcoin is US$51,000. If you buy in Binance and then sell in South Korea, you can make a profit of $4,000. I am considering doing this. I want to hear your opinion. Huh
There are lot of things that you need to consider to do arbitrage trading. For some exchange, they require you to do strict KYC check and of course for every transaction. how much time it will take to confirm your transferred funds. Bot can also manipulate pricing. I tried it before but it didnt work for me. Sad
We need to consider the time of the transaction because we can not predict the time accurately. Maybe before we send the bitcoin, the price is still high, but there is no guarantee for the price to stay at that price. Who knows, after we send, the price is down sharply and once the transaction got confirmed, we can not sell at a high price. As usual, high risk can give you a high profit but be careful. Not every time you will get your luck.
5749  Economy / Economics / Re: Is Bitcoin losing its purpose? on: August 18, 2021, 10:07:31 AM
Price movements have nothing to do with popularity in use and network, just market demand. I wouldn't say struggling either, BTC has been just doing a slow burn the whole month. Remember, there's still 6 weeks left to Q3 and Christmas is the target to match and break the ATH.

That will of course need a fresh round of FOMO but it's for sure coming.
Hopefully, that can become true for the bitcoin price to rise so high in Christmas to make a lot of money from bitcoin. Otherwise, if the price can not break the last ATH but is a bit lower than that, I will not have a problem because we can still profit. Maybe that do not have relations between price movements and popularity but someday, it could happen, especially if bitcoin price is up to $100,000-$200,000.

The difference is that bitcoin was created to be "used", that was the purpose of it, and is it losing its purpose? Well, it is surely a lot further away from what Satoshi was considering, that's for sure. I do not know who he is, I do not know if he is still around, last time he ever wrote something was years ago when he said he wasn't this guy some tv shows found, he declined being him and that was it, never wrote ever again, maybe he is dead and we may never know what he feels about the current crypto situation.

That is good (not him being dead, just not writing) because we can use it however we want to, that is sort of the idea of decentralization but the fact is that people are acting as if the purpose of bitcoin was to make them more fiat, of course it's not, nobody created a crypto currency just so you can be rich in fiat, the purpose is to be used.
Maybe bitcoin needs more time to be "used" as what Satoshi was considering or wanted. But if the world will ready to use bitcoin, it will become true and bitcoin will be very popular in our lives and it will attract more people's attention to use it as a currency or just an investment thing. Yeah, we do not know who Satoshi are and I think that will not just be one person behind the name Satoshi. But who cares about that because as long as we can use bitcoin for whatever we want, Satoshi will watch his creation grow as he wants.

This is true.

Parental guidance is what gonna make your children mature at a very young age to determine what's good and bad for them, which ideally good because your children will take care of themselves at a very young age instead of playing too much and being carefree too much. And about the "becomes smarter with a device", I think I might disagree with that since most of the children misunderstood the right use of the devices as a kid.

Most of them would search KPOP and other adult stuffs on it if they accidentally searched it or some of their silly friends suggest it to them.
Children misunderstood the right use of the devices as a kid. Their parents do not guide them to use it with the right because their parents were too busy with their worlds. That is why we see many cases of abusing Facebook account or other social media, even sex in that social media. We knew many underages offers themselves to adult people because those kids want to have much money in their ages using many ways.

If their parent can guide them, I am sure many kids will be saved and grow up as they like. Maybe there is a need to ask them how they are prohibited from using their mobile phone for just one day and see how they will react.

The development of technology is indeed very good for human life, but if we are not careful, it will have a negative effect on the younger generation.
What you say has happened a lot now, I even find it sad to see some children around where I live can access gambling sites with the gadgets they
have. This should be a serious concern, especially for parents who do have children under the age of 18. We can start from ourselves by educating
our children which things they can access and which they don't have to access. if we are not married or have no children, there is nothing wrong
with advising those closest to us who already have children how dangerous the internet world is without supervision.
The technology is like a knife that has two faces. If we can use it with the right, we will get the benefits, but we can drag into a crime if it is not.

Yes, it happened in many places. I see not just gambling, but many are too open about sex and sarcasm and can not respect older people. I do not know if their parents do not teach about that, but I realize that it is because of a wrong association with their friends.

The gamblers will have different favourite coins to gamble, whether sports betting or other gambling games. If they like to use bitcoin, they will still use bitcoin, which happens with the other gamblers. But if the casino does not have their favourite coins, they will search for the coin that will fit what they want, especially in the transaction fee because something that will be a concern for a gambler. Most casinos will have bitcoin, ethereum, litecoin, usdt, doge in their coin list but with the growth of the cryptocurrency, those casinos try to add the other coins such as trx, ada or others so they can attract more people who want to use that coins.

as long as a gambler can bet any coin will do. if it werent for the transaction fee, they'd use BTC.  trx comes the first for me because its the cheapest.

but when its started it was litecoin and doge that were the first that casinos considered. with the rise of altcoins and i guess they see profit from altcoins community.
When doge is still cheap, I often use doge to gamble but when the price increase and still does not have a sign to go down to the lower price, I move to trx and sometimes use litecoin. But litecoin fits me to gamble as many casinos have litecoin that we can use to gamble so I can send some litecoin amounts to that casino. For me, using BTC is not recommended because the price now is too high and it is better to sell bitcoin at a high peak than using it for gamble.

Gambling is illegal in most Islam countries yet we can't deny the fact that people will always find ways to do gambling. Even in the most strict areas where gambling is prohibited, we all know that underground gambling is still happening. However, we still aren't sure if the players on the photos are really Arabs since not all we see on the internet is true.
Yes, that is because people attempt gambling to make money and know that gambling is prohibited in their country. They risk their money and even their life because if they get caught by the police, they will get punishment for some time. Even if that is Arabs, we can not blame them as gambling is their choice and they know about the consequences of playing gambling in their country.
5753  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bots and fake accounts in Telegram channels on: August 17, 2021, 02:58:28 PM
Lately the number of fake accounts and bots is rising in Telegram groups.
Is there any app that recognize the real number of people in a group?
I think the app can not recognize if that account is real people or scammer because they can buy any number from their country and use it to scam any people in that group. People will only know the number and name of that person, but they do not know if that is real people who want to interact with other people in telegram or scam people. The best way to prevent scammers or fake accounts is by deleting the conversation they start or reporting it so they can not message you anymore.

I am new to trading, what are some of the good trading platforms? kindly advice
I do not recommend copy trading for you as you are new to trading. I suggest you learn some basic lessons about trading on Youtube to know how to trade for beginners. It is not about the money you have, but how you can pick the coin and the time to enter the market. If you want to use copy trading without knowing the basics of trading, it will feel difficult to select the traders you want to copy. My advice is to buy bitcoin, hold it, leave the market, and come back in the next month or the end of this year or next year.

5756  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do poker and sports betting skills correlate? on: August 17, 2021, 01:30:58 PM
unless I can keep getting wins in every tournament continuously, then it's definitely a matter of skill. But if it's won only occasionally and not continuously, then I consider it just luck though indeed, I also believe in skill but it won't be perfect without luck.

There are no steady wins in games and both poker and sports are games except for the ways they are played. Skill might be considered in sports but winnings are not always guaranteed especially two equal teams playing but poker is gambling and gambling is based on luck. So I agree to luck for  gambling and skill for sports.

Sports betting is also a gambling, isn't it? Your statement sounds like that sports betting is not a gambling at all and your skills on it will be the one thing that affect the result. Skills and Luck are involved in both poker and sports betting. You may say poker is a luck based game only if you play it blindly without any skills, or in other words you play it like doing "all in" all the time with any cards on your hand.
Sports betting is also gambling because if that is related to money, that consider to gambling. But if you are just guessing what team or player will win on the game without money involved, that is not gambling but will depend on your skills to collect as much data as you can. Yes, skills and luck are involved in both sports betting and poker and if you can have better information about that, you can have a chance to win. If you do not have many skills in poker and only play randomly and suddenly, you win, that will be you are in the luck moment. And that will be the same if you place in the sports betting.

If you believe the app has a good reputation and has good security, your account will be okay. If the phone is compromised or has malware, you send your data in your phone to the hacker or the creator of that malware. You need to check your phone and make sure you have a clean device.

But if your phone already has malware, then it is possible that your data still send to the hacker.

I never use Blockfolio on my phone but I use TabTrader only to check the market. Blockfolio is recommended apps, but that is a personal matter and not all traders use Blockfolio and synchronize with their exchange wallet.
5758  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Exposed to children on: August 17, 2021, 12:32:30 PM
Yes, guidance is always needed to avoid those kinds of situations where children are now getting curious about gambling. Kids are easy to get curious on such things especially if these things are getting his attention like card games in gambling. If a child is taught about the reality of gambling and how it works, he is unlikely to do it because he knows it is wrong and should be avoided. Parental supervision is really essential to us and plays a significant role.
I think underage people can get the documents to verify themselves and pretend that they are adult people who will allow gambling. That is not a surprise if children can do that, especially if they are under 17-18 years, because they can use the other adult identity to verify or ask for help from the adult closest to them.

When it comes to cryptocurrency, they can hide their identity by playing gambling as the site won't check and it is difficult to know who is behind those devices. Besides that, children or under 17-18 years can play gambling from their gadgets or computers in their room before going to bed.

Yes, this issue needs to be a concern from the parents and they need to discuss with their kids what they can do and what not.

Many parents are too busy with their work, where their children are allowed to access the internet without supervision. Especially now that
gambling advertisements are everywhere spread across various platforms, and what is even more worrying, sometimes some parents do not
really understand about technology. So there are many children who are curious to access gambling sites. Moreover, as you have explained,
it is very easy for children to verify pretending to be adults. Finally, this is a serious problem, which must be considered by parents. From an
early age, children must be given education about the risks of playing gambling and with good explanations from parents, children should be
able to understand that they are not allowed to access gambling sites.
The parents think that if they can fill what their children need, that will be enough to learn many things. But without guidance from the parents, I am afraid that children do not have a limitation about something they should know. We know that when someone accesses the internet, they can cross the border and can visit any websites they want and if they get block, they can easily find out how to access the site.

The children become smarter with their devices without a parent needs to teach them. Once they visit Youtube to search for how they can access one thing, they will get a lot of information that is sometimes not for them.
5759  Economy / Economics / Re: Is Bitcoin losing its purpose? on: August 17, 2021, 12:02:23 PM
~
Yes, bitcoin still has popularity today and that is proved with the good movements from bitcoin price to reach the highest price so far, although right now, the price still struggling to back to that high price.
I have a doubt, do you think that every time the price of Bitcoin goes below the all time high valuation you will consider that the price is struggling  Roll Eyes. The price is rallying 400% from the past years valuation and why would anyone think that the price is struggling, which does not even makes sense and do not expect the market to only in one direction .

The purpose of Bitcoin as a currency is not bad either, i am able to make transaction at very low fees and i do not have a complaint against Bitcoin for the past few months because the transactions fees are lower than ever and the confirmation times are surprisingly faster.
Yes, if the price is not struggling, the price will stay at that lower price and not increase for a long time. Or the price is set at that price and the investor moves to the altcoin or leaves the market temporary because they already take profit from bitcoin. We do not know for sure why we see many speculations about what happened to the bitcoin price.

As we know that bitcoin is not controlled by anybody nor the government, it seems the government is not ready yet to use bitcoin as a currency. But we should be happy because, on the internet, we can use bitcoin to purchase something and even if the price always changes, that will not be a problem for us.
5760  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: the fight between Binance and Cardano on: August 17, 2021, 11:35:06 AM
We can not deny that right now, Cardano is taking the BNB position and still getting stronger. But if Cardano price wants to fight against BNB price, that will need some time before the Cardano's price can go up higher and that is not easy as BNB has already become the third favorite for the investors. But if Cardano can still manage the project can reach the other phase of the project, it could be possible the price can jump a lot and it could be close to BNB in the future. The future is still a mystery and everything can be possible to happen.

I honestly hope that BnB will continue to be in the third position of coinmarketcap compared to cardano, because in my opinion, BnB is an asset that is still the best performing crypto asset throughout the year, besides that BnB also has a strong use and  value, so it can sustain price movements, and this is not present in cardano at all, but even so cardano is also a good altcoin with a market dominance of 3.41%,
But to replace BnB position in third place coinmarketcap seems to be very difficult to happen because of many factors that influence it.
Many people want the same thing as you, but that is what happens to the market and it is normal to see the crypto market change from time to time. Maybe people want to search the other potential coins besides ethereum and BNB and they see that Cardano has that potential, so they are interested in the project and invest in Cardano.

But BNB still has the best performing crypto besides ethereum and it is only a matter of time before BNB can replace the number two position and beat Cardano position. But for now, it is better to use this time to profit from Cardano while we can try to hold BNB.
