5821  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: BIT.AC :: MULTICURRENCY WALLET :: BUILT-IN INSTANT EXCHANGE :: Affiliate Program on: March 08, 2017, 02:41:55 AM
Can anyone tell me how good is the android wallet, I wanna try it as my secondary wallet but I see so many bad reviews on playstore. Those reviews makes me a bit worry but I dont know whether those reviews are valid or not, hope for some trusted member here to give review of the android wallet.

for any wallet out there you should always give it a try yourself, don't trust the reviews that much specially when there aren't that many of them.
you can install the wallet, play around a bit. find the pros and cons and decide if you want to stick to it or not. and besides as you can see from the reply of bitac they are working on it and you can always ask the developers to improve or add features that you want. all the wallets out there started like this and after a long time they became better with feedback they got.


perfectly right since reviews can be bought anywhere nor here as we can see there are people's who buying reviews on service section and exchange for only few satoshi. so to find out for ourselves might truly better if we just seek and try for ourselves so that we can review if this wallet is good or not. and as i am past user of this wallet well i can say that i don't see any issue and the good with it is they have other coins listed on their wallet.

Negative reviews can be bought? Who would make an effort to do something like that to a small service like Bit.ac?

And dont the two of you read? The developer of Bit.ac has already responded and has apologized for their Android wallet. Its true that there are stability issues and those reviews are unquestionably not bought.

apparently you need to read before jumping in conclusion, I made it bold for you.
all I am saying is that people post negative reviews just for a simple bug and rate the app low but they don't see that it is a new app and it is bound to have bugs and they are being fixed by our reports not by giving random negative reports. that is why I said it is best if we test it and report bugs instead!
And at the end, those who have given feedback with low rating some of them will eventually increase it when the app just fixed and becoming a better than the older version.
It's such a usual thing in an app store or play store.
There's no point of someone buying a negative feedback unless it's their competition and they just give tonnes of negative feedback that could overwhelmingly impact the rate shown.
You might have found some app that also has bunch of negative feedback, even published by popular companies.
I don't have an android wallet yet but I will try that one. Actually I have not face any problem using my wallet and actually I do not just listen to reviews because I tried it myself and I'm a satisfied user.

I believe people in this forum are more reputable and if they say positive about Bit.Ac then we should believe them than people that we do not know their reputation.

I personally don't think that Bitcoin can make Banks disappear. Banks will never let them self be disappeared by something else.
But the banks aren't invisible and can go bankrupt. And we live in a world where anything can so maybe the Bitcoin can make them disappear, but i don't so.
As long as this world is controlled by the government banks will always be here to serve us, it's true that there banks who gets bankrupt but that would not solely mean that the entire banking industry is not profitable. Banks has exist for many decades already and it's part of the history already therefore it cannot be replace by bitcoin which is stil making a history.

We all know that this world is centralized as it's run by the government and that can ensure peace and order than a decentralized thing which some are hoping to happen.

I will have to agree with that.
Those bank will not fall just like that. Example is China, banning some industry and some places to use bitcoin and then what? Suddenly PBOC says they will create their own blockchain? What the hell?
Since they are in power, they can easily copy a new revolutionary system and take the credit on their side, and considering only few people is aware of bitocin, they might think that it's the government that created that kind of innovation for the people. That's how greedy the government is, they want to be in control of everything and abusing their power is not new to us.
5823  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What would you do with your winnings? on: March 07, 2017, 05:03:45 AM
Most of the winnings I save for the future and with some of it would gamble again hoping to win it more and sometimes I succeed and sometimes makes losses but its good to gamble as if luck favors then it can bring huge profits for me.
- Save for the future is good but if you want to become rich, you should invest. Hope there is a huge profit from gambling is very rare to happen and you should not believe in that. I usually use my winning to invest because money begets money, I rarely go back to gambling after winning because I know if I continue to play, I'll lose again. We should be satisfied with amount of money we win, too greedy can kill us

Exactly and that is the mistake most of the gambler does that they don't stop gambling even after they win and continue to gamble hoping that they will win every time but that is not possible and yes if you win then that amount should be invested so that it can grow safely over a period of time.
i think it is depending on the amount of bitcoin you make in gambling. if it is a big amount then you can even start a good and legal business with its income.
That could be great but it's hard to trust our future plan in gambling, it is better if we have different plans in gambling and in our investment because that should be treated separately. The failure in gambling will be the failure of all and I'm afraid we will not be able to get our expectation due to lack of advantage in gambling.

Anyway if it happen for you to win that big amount which will unlikely to happen if you have no decent bets to put, then it's nice to use that money in a legitimate business but do not rely on it too much.
5824  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How much can u lose with gambling? on: March 07, 2017, 04:21:21 AM
the amount is not predictable sometimes i only want deposit small amount
if i have more money i will deposit more and i am ready to lose it certainly
usually small amount for me is 0.01 bitcoin and highest amount i can lose is only 0.1 bitcoin
It's easier to predict how much we can lose but on how much we can win it's very hard. To be honest, based on my experience we can lose more than the amount we can afford to lose if we let our emotion dictate us, and I would say the feeling is devastating that every gambler does not want to happen in their lives. However, if you learn how to control your spending and be discipline on it, you can lose only what you can afford to lose.

No specific amount to give as we have different comfort zone of our betting amount in gambling, my range would depend on my income, for now it increase to 0.2 in a monthly basis.
5825  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: the easiest way to make a profit from gambling? on: March 06, 2017, 01:05:50 PM
hello, I would like to try my luck from gambling.

what kind of gambling that you think is easy to make a profit? and what strategies are you using?
The only game that I played most often was dice games only, because it is very easy to play, only choose between hi and low bet then the amount of bet you wanna do.

You know in dice is really easy game, But in dice it is really hard to make money from it, and you know this thread belong to easiest way to make money from gambling.
I suggest, if you know about sports than do sports betting, because in sports betting, if you use your skills than you could win in gambling, and for me, it is not easy but it has chances to earn from sports betting.
We are just looking for a bigger chance of winning but there is no easy way to earn money in gambling, everything depends on our luck and skills and we need to be very good to beat the house. Honestly, I do not think of winning in the long run anymore as I have been dreaming that all my life and until now I still cannot achieve it, all my winnings are just a temporary thing, I win today and lose tomorrow, I get used to it but goo thing is I already enjoyed it now.
5826  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Season on: March 06, 2017, 12:29:24 PM
Sacramento Kings 109 - 110 Utah Jazz
Dallas Mavericks 104 - 89 Oklahoma City Thunder
L.A. Lakers 97 - 105 New Orleans Pelicans

Good to know the pelicans already found a way to win though its against the lakers. I think this season's a throw away alrrady for these young lakers and most likely the same thing with next season. They may need to have kobe back lol
Kobe retired for a reason, this team is still a young team and they were exposed now, they are only good in the beginning and when they lost Lou Williams there offense is not good anymore, imagine how that guy contribute in the offense and sometimes he is the main scorer.
On the other hand, the Pelicans has improve their line up and that is just too much bigs for the NOP and they can dominate the paint anytime.
Good win for them as they really need that to be in the playoff race.
5827  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to quit Gambling for good? on: March 06, 2017, 06:44:07 AM
For me there is so many ways to quit in gambling for good,
First of all you have to keep yourself busy so that you won't think about anything related to gambling,
And try to go out and have fun with your friends or family when you are having fun you won't even think about gambling.
True, make yourself being busy is the way it should be tried to quit gambling. It will make our time becomes more narrow so there is no time to gamble, gradually certainly could quit gambling. But if someone has become addicted maybe also need the help of people around to help forget about gambling. It is not easy and takes time, must be patient to successfully quit gambling.
It would really not be easy to quit gambling specially when you are already prolonged on it for long many days months or even years. Make yourself busy would be a good way to forget about gambling but be sure to do things that will not attempt you anymore on playing.
But quitting should be your goal and there is no excuses why a person cannot quite in gambling. It's hard but it's possible to quit, the more you stays addicted the more you are destroying your life, gambling is only fun when we are not addicted yet but once we are in the situation we will certainly live a miserable life. Think of that always, quit now and force yourself to do it.
5828  Economy / Economics / Re: Build a Bank Of Bitcoin on: March 06, 2017, 06:22:09 AM
i don't think we need a bitcoin bank, we already have a lot of banks out there and if you say that you will pay more interest that those then i will say we have a lot of ponzi schemes too and by the way paying loans are alreay the risky part for anything hope you are talking about taking collaterals and giving loans or else you can not stand a day
Banks will surely operate the same scenario like regulated fiat banks and I don't see there is a difference anymore which we are looking. If bitcoin is controlled by the government it could only be incorporated with current banking system and no way it is be more dominant than fiat.

It will only be use as payment system to increase the speed of transactions and when we are willing top adopt, we will have to surrender the benefits we are enjoying with the current no banking system which is we are only relying with exchange sites. Our accounts then will be audited from time to time and the risk of our accounts to be freeze will likely to happen.
5829  Economy / Economics / Re: Do You Think Bitcoin Will Replace Dollar Soon? on: March 06, 2017, 03:13:50 AM
I think that this bitcoin replacing dollar will not be in 15 years maybe later maybe in 20-30 years because dollar is too important for America economy so i dont see reason now for replacing it for crpytocurrency and it will replace also other values if world war 3 dont start or other type of apocalypse.
Not gonna happen even how many years you will have to wait, every country has their own currency and their government decide on that thing. Bitcoin is not regulated and not controlled by any government, so how would the majority of people in this world trust bitcoin when government is the most powerful in a nation. We are living in a dream if we believe it will happen.
5830  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Fixed income with BTC trading? on: March 05, 2017, 10:37:33 AM
it sounds more to me like you're looking for some type of passive income. there's certainly no way bitcoin trading can provide that. you have to have your wits about you constantly and be ready to change your position whenever necessary.

and the people who claim they make a consistent profit are either talking out of their ass or blew thousands until they were good enough to make a consistent profit.

the next closest thing to passive income with crypto is probably staking some type of proof of stake alt but the value is likely to fluctuate wildly.
Having an fixed income is a great idea. I think that fixing the income on bitcoin is much better than to change it regularly aside its value always increase so it means its value increase also. So even if the bitcoin is on a fixed price the income if you convert is going to be different after all. I just like it because if you are going to do it on signature campaign it much more easy to do it everyday because the income is good.
You can't compare the income in trading than your income in signature campaign, given that you can earn fixed income but that will not surpass the amount you can possibly earn in trading. Fixed income do offer a limited income while with trading, everything is possible since you can increase your income based on the amount you are willing to risk if you have the confidence.
5831  Economy / Services / Re: Byteball Signature Campaign(accepting local posters) on: March 05, 2017, 08:27:05 AM
Thank you for accepting me. But I have a question: on the first page it's written "30 posts min per week" and counting from Monday to Sunday. It's Sunday today and I have made only one post since applying for the campaign. So, do I need to make 30 posts today or count will start from next week?
Thank you.

It is better to start your posting after the Monday's payment. You have to wait only one day. Have a rest, there will be a lot of work next week.
Correct, it's self explanatory already, you can posts 30 today but I'm afraid that can be considered as spamming and that is not good for the business you advertise which is not fair. Better start posting after this week's counting of posts are done. Good luck.
5832  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Season on: March 05, 2017, 08:21:49 AM
Personally I think Cleveland are winning back to back. Especially with Kevin Durant being injured now it'll make it easier for western teams to defeat has. San Antonio is only 2.5 games behind and I believe that by April they will be first and ahead of gsw because of the KD injury

Well we can't be sure about that dude. The warriors have been to the finals two times without durant in their lineup. I don't think gsw is all about durant as there are more players who can pick up the weight durant left. I think they are still on top of the west here though from the start of the season i didn't really expect they'd replicate what they did last year
But they are not the same team when they acquired KD and release plenty of good players. They need Durant for both defense and especially offense. See what happen without Durant, they are exposed now and even team that are not so great like the Spurs and the Cavaliers, had beaten them already.
Honestly, I don't see them successful without KD back in line up.
5833  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: You only lose if... on: March 04, 2017, 01:19:01 PM
We will lose if we do sell if theres a price decrease on bitcoins price because you panic when you saw its going down and down sell of less on your bought price then its a sure lose.Holding off for long time will be also good because bitcoin does have good potential for future.
The simple way to explain it is you lose when you sell your bitcoins lower than the amount you purchase it, buy low and sell high is always the basic principle that should be followed and that is regardless of the price since we have different appreciation on the market movement of bitcoin.
Some says the price is cheap or it's expensive now, but in the end it's still our decision matters most because we do not want to decide based on others speculation.
5834  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ANY STRATEGY TO WIN IN GAMBLING? on: March 04, 2017, 07:57:17 AM
In theory this is can be betting strategy or system that is a structured approach to gambling, in the attempt to produce a profit or winnings. To be winner or to take profit, the system (gambler) must overcome the house edge. Betting systems are often predicated on statistical analysis.

Or practical you can go with some amount of money in play and cash out on some 20-30% income, and come again next time and so on. So many variant and solution for strategies you just need to find the right one for game you are playing.
There is no way in this world where we can overcome the house edge, it's built to give profit to the house, period.
Most of us may not be very realistic in terms of our approach in gambling and I don't see any reason why we are not learning despite the fact we are losing. Beating the house is an impossible mission, you cannot beat it therefore our chance to win is only when we join them by investing.

Look for another kind of game where house edge is absent, it's other option to win but not guaranteed.
5835  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to quit Gambling for good? on: March 04, 2017, 07:22:10 AM
How does one Put down Gambling for good?
Don't gamble? If you want to gamble, find something else to do.
The question is how, it's not easy as that because although we want to quit but quitting is hard. Factors that would affect are addictions or our interest to go further in seeking techniques to win, unfortunately, there's no such technique that would give us a long term profit, it's just a myth to let us spend more in gambling. If we can reach that level and we will realize how the reality works, then I guess that is convincing already to quit.
5836  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Giving up gambling is not easy on: March 02, 2017, 08:46:32 AM
yes it's not easy to give up gambling I've seen many people ruined their life in gambling but still do gambling. You should concentrate on other things which you likes to do and keeping yourself busy is the only option.
You have to determine what things that will make you interest more than gambling, once your addicted you will be wanting to gamble all the time and your time and effort will only be wasted in gambling. We all have the choice to give up but it will not happen if we have not fully accepted that gambling is no longer our friend that will give us entertainment, once time comes you'll accepted it, the real process of quitting will start.
5837  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin be used by ordinary citizens? on: March 02, 2017, 07:29:42 AM
Of course yes, it can be used by anyone.
Private Keys, Public keys, bitcoin private keys, crypto keys, generate bitcoins, get bitcoins, from bitstamp, localbitcoins, coincast,
the use of software as in video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AGhYGgtNXwk&t=39s
i mean just get your bitcoins how you see fit.

Most people use bitcoins, are now aware.
Everything can be learn even how new and complicated the technology is, but thinking of the potential users, I don't think everyone is a potential users. Ordinary citizens fall under our category as well because we are all ordinary who are living in this world guided by the law and common things like having a job to survive is what we do. Also, as citizen, we have different learning capabilities due to some have limited education, so I think only a little portion of the ordinary citizens can adopt or use bitcoin now and in the future to come.
5838  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you can control your self when playing gambling? on: March 02, 2017, 07:18:46 AM
While play gambling and lost, do you add more beting or stop play gambling? I always add more beting and deposit again, i can't control my self. Do you have suggesting for me?
I have great self control when it comes to gambling, I only play with my first deposit and if I lose that I stop playing.
If I don't lose it then I only play with my profit if I made enough to play with it.
Are you playing for how many years mate? I think most of gamblers don't have a self control especially if they are playing for a years also I observe some of gamblers are expecting to become rich in gambling that's why they keep on loosing
yes that is true, most of the gamblers do not have control over themselves. and specially in very start when you are very new in gambling and do not know about gambling too much. when people are very new they are more will and confident to make money in gambling but later he understand that it is not such an easy job and then he change their strategy about gambling.
Maybe at the start we do not have control but along the way we will learn to control ourselves because based on experience we are losing more than we can afford to lose if we keep betting without control. Just try to analyze the situation that every roll we don't have the advantage so probably the outcome will not favor on us most of the time. With proper control, we will not only be safe in losing big but also we will get the entertainment that we are wanting.
5839  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling loses and wins on: March 02, 2017, 05:56:13 AM
Losses has a very deep part of gambling and as you experience this everytime you are playing gambling you become more aggressive to bet for more, its doesn't give you discouragement even though its becoming worst. When you compare it with your wins I see the same idea of no satisfaction even you won a good prize, still you don't stop and still hope for another chance which could turn out you to lose again and again.

I agree that losses is really a deep part of gambling.  It is designed that way because of the house edge.  Though it is decided by chance, with the house having an edge, there is more possibility that the house will win in every roll.  Though some analyst say there is an equal chance in every roll in gambling.

Yes, the loss is the main part of gambling. If you play slot games, then the house having an edge and your loses chance will increase. So if you want to increase your win chance, you must play skill games. Here the win and loss both have equal value. And sometimes the win have more value than a loss. I don't know who said that there is an equal chance in every roll in gambling. According to me lose chance in high in every roll.
Even if there is no house edge, the sites has still the advantage because they have proven to be smarter than us with the evident by their profitable business. Losing when accepted will give us entertainment in playing games we like, whatever game it is as long as it's our favorites, we will always appreciate the chance to enjoy.
5840  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can trading be considered as gambling?? on: March 02, 2017, 05:17:45 AM
I want to know what you guys think about this, I have stopped gambling but still trade so does this mean I am still gambling?? I don't trade on basis of luck I trade using my skills would it still be considered gambling??

Please tell me what do you think.


Trading in some other community in this industry are the same as gambling. It maybe according to their understanding. Just important is gambling is for a game only were it gives joy and happiness when you play. But trading is a king of real business where your the captain of your own boat.
For me we can not consider trading as gambling since the purpose of gambling is to give entertainment and not for giving free money for people.. and gambling i s more high risk than trading.. you can make more profit in trading with less risk and you can predict what will be the price of bitcoin unlike in gambling only selected are base on skill base game and most of them are base on luck..
You are definitely right, it's better to think that gambling is for fun and trading is for serious way of making money and that cannot be interchange or done with the same purpose as it's safer that way despite considering both as risky activities.
Trading is the game for smart people who loves to predict the future and they bet on their prediction, what is good with trading is you will be able to get information that could be relevant as your basis in your decision making.
