Another useless thread.You might want to re structure the title of the thread to "How was your first Gambling Experience" ? I  bet most of the posters here started betting after getting introduced to bitcoins  because casinos wouldn't allow under age kids anyway.
Did you bother to read my post? Or did you just simply decide to use this "useless thread" to *contribute* to it? "How was your first Gambling Experience" is essentially the same as my question. Gambling does not necessarily mean directly gambling from a casino or a gambling site. You could be with friends, *betting* on something. You only realize it now when you see that there lies a risk and a reward. Viewing gambling strictly as wagering a bet in an environment directly suited to gambling is wrong. There's gambling everywhere, every day, with all ages. Don't tunnel-vision yourself.
5844  Economy / Gambling discussion / What was your first gambling experience? on: March 17, 2016, 02:55:52 PM
Over the course of your life, no doubt you have gambled at least once. It did not have to be a direct bet (heh) but you could have indirectly chosen to risk something. Remember, you don't have to be in a casino to gamble. You can be anywhere and wager something. So, in full, I'd like to see what your first shot at the dice was. Your prime dice, if you will.

More then a investing I have earned it, price volatility attracts me towards it, as whatever I am earning at a moment will be multiplied in future if the price is higher.
Can you elaborate on that? The thing is, liking the volatility of bitcoins is fine, but then what of the risk that the price will drift down to a lower level where then you lose profit? Wouldn't you rather a more stable currency where you can have a somewhat higher representation of security?

There's no guarantee, no 100% security that your earnings in bitcoins will increase in the future.
Volatility =/= Security. You will not necessarily gain anything by investing in bitcoins. If you're talking about being impatient, then there's always gambling. That holds risk, just like investing in bitcoins, but is often an instant payoff.

Add more flavor to your explanation, please.
5846  Economy / Economics / Bitcoin: For what reason was it a healthy investment? on: March 16, 2016, 10:59:02 PM
I want you to explain in detail why you personally thought that bitcoin was a healthy investment. I don't want the same crap replies about the same thing over and over. I want a longer, more complicated answer depicting the true nature of why you thought it was useful to begin investing in bitcoins.

It's not necessarily investing money into it. You obviously also invest time (which is pretty much money) into the bitcoin community. Even now, as you read this, you're investing time into bitcoins. So, explain. What made it so good? In what way did bitcoin create this imagine in your mind where you thought, "Hey, this seems like a good use of my time. This may hold use in the future and allow me to profit off it" instead of anything else?

5848  Economy / Economics / Re: Should I believe in Bitcoin ? on: March 16, 2016, 10:43:39 PM
Everyone using bitcoin should have total faith in it as its gonna be a future currency giving us multiple benefits and you should view it as a best investment for the future as you can expect better returns in future.

We can't really know if what we are gonna face in future with bitcoin but we can just hope and predict for something very positive, we can't be sure of anything coming in future as anything can get changed in no time so better to just hope and pray for the best.
Yes, we have to believe on good and the more predictions are about the best future of bitcoin especially after halving a large community are of the view that the price will double up.
Why do you think that the halving means that the price will double? There's no guarantee that *boom* the price will double instantly and everyone will continue at the same pace. The halving is just an event that happens - it cannot change the price. We as consumers change the price of bitcoins, and the demand may not increase to a level high enough to double the price. Besides, look at the current price. One of the factors for its increase IS the halving.

It cant change the price?The halving will and must affect the value of each bitcoin otherwise would be useless to have halving to reduce your income.Sure speculations that we make is what really affects the value but we act to the news usually same way as forex,in this case is bad for miner and good for medium short investors that should be able to get an extra profit before and after the halving,i believe we will reach 700 dollars till end year stable.
The halving does not change the price directly. It will not double the price, either. That's not how the economics of bitcoins would work. The halving has already begun to affect the price of bitcoins, that's what I'm saying. Keep believing that once the halving comes, the price will reflect it, because that adds more demand to bitcoins. But in reality, you should know that it doesn't directly double the price. It's the supply/demand of bitcoins that reflects the price. The elasticity.

Animated gifs could also be two frames of flashing images, which is a potential cause of seizures. That's not necessarily something that's good. I doubt that's the main reason for banning animated avatars, but that's one factor that could be involved in it. It could also just be annoying, most likely, to see a bunch of animations everywhere you go on the forum. I suspect that may be one of the reasons. (It would be fairly obnoxious to see a bunch of memes plastered on the left everywhere)
5851  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Network is under sybil attack on: March 16, 2016, 02:26:42 PM
Nodes is a very important part of bitcoin ecosystem and the last defend in malicious attack from miners. For example in 51% malicious attack nodes can prevent the miner to destroy the network. In a hard fork scenario again nodes can block to relay the the new blocks and transactions.
The other danger think with such a sybil attack is that someone can easy use all of this nodes to get some informations from bitcoin transactions like to identify from where this transactions came from

thank you for this explanation, I think I understand more about nodes.  In regards to the last sentence - Aren't transactions traceable to someones identity anyway?
Only their wallet (unless they mix them) and the wallet addresses but I'm under the assumption that controlling the nodes would allow access to the transaction origin's IP address? Correct me if I'm wrong, I'm not too advanced in this subject.
5852  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Doubling Bitcoin? on: March 16, 2016, 02:20:05 PM
How about buying ETHERUM..?
i think trade your bitcoin with altcoin pair is a good option to doubling your bitcoin in 1month, maybe only 1week  Cheesy
and the best way of decreasing your bitcoin in 1 month, maybe only 1 week, trading have medium risk, whether the price down or go up, who knows?
Ethereum will be dumped soon. It's just a matter of when. The bubble will pop, and those that took the opportunity and profited will be counting their bills.

Well the altcoins keep making this the best and easy way to double,they reach 50%90 % in a day of pump if you lucky to have coins on the bump well ,just need to know when to jump.Whales pumped eth and others and left the coins,slowly recovering the hit ,but its always this way with altcoins,bitcoin will have its moment soon of pumping.
It's difficult to figure out when a pump is going to happen. Actually, no. It's next to impossible. You can't expect a pump on some shitcoin unless you pay attention to every single market at all times and check for buy orders on all the exchanges. If you're too late, then the pump will already be over and you're left in the dust, with a huge loss by investing in some useless coin. And don't expect whales to come back to that - there are plenty more altcoins to pump and dump.
5853  Other / Off-topic / Re: what you like best in Bitcoin ? on: March 16, 2016, 02:16:00 PM
Of the many options, it's difficult to facilitate a response to survey only one... Most likely, I would say the transactions. This ties in with both the fees and the time it takes for a transaction to be confirmed. The relative ease of this system allows for security and speed at the same time, as well as an incredibly low fee. There are no huge taxes here, just a few cents worth of transaction fees every time you do one...

I also have to love how easy it is to get bitcoins.
5854  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: People mocking of me for using Bitcoin on: March 16, 2016, 02:13:21 PM
I find the same so now I don't bother trying to explain to anyone as they will be using it at some point or at least a variation of it.

Now the challenge is to gain as much bitcoin as possible before they catch and then when they do you can be like "told ya so"
Obviously, though there is the risk and chance that bitcoin may fail (I personally do not hold to this belief, I'm quite bullish) and you could be wrong. Alternatively, instead of bitcoin rising to the top, it could also be a different altcoin that takes its place. There's always more room for innovation and I believe that there could be some advantages that an altcoin could bring that bitcoin does not have to the table. People may prefer that over bitcoin... or they can use the original.
5855  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: PayPal or BTC on: March 16, 2016, 02:11:01 PM
As aubert said, there is already another thread. Lock this to prevent spam (though I bet that's your only purpose, seeing how you've already started two spammable topics... Sigh. Anyway, I would like to say that I prefer bitcoins over PayPal, but the problem is that I can use PayPal in more places. Though their support may suck and they have a lot of problems themselves, I can have a more diverse amount of ways to spend money from PayPal. However, when bitcoin reaches the point where PayPal is now, then I will use that. But for now, it's easier to use PayPal over bitcoin.
5856  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: A teen is given $1K to invest into Bitcoin - what would you recommend for them? on: March 16, 2016, 02:01:50 PM
Let the teen invest some of the coins in some trustworthy sites and make them hold the rest. It's better to stave off and just wait a bit for the majority of your coins while the price increases. Let their patience reward them, and that'll be a good lesson for the future as well. There are different investments that can be risky but may pay off in the long run, like investing into a gambling site. Though it holds risk to it, with $1K you can part with some of it as long as you hold the rest. Make sure the teen does not go into gambling. That holds significant potential loss.
5857  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Video game gambling on: March 15, 2016, 10:48:43 PM
This the most fair of all the things you can bet on in my opinion. There is no manipulation in these games as any team can win and it's outcome is based on skill and not luck. There is no house edge due to there being only teams involved and not computerized bots that would normally represent the house.

Yes I am sure that this game is really based on skill but you need some luck too though like you hope that you want to meet some newbie so you can win it easily, this is called luck. But are they having this kind of games in casino? I dont think so because this kind of game will never be profitable to them
The problem with a skill-based game is that you'll see a lot of high-tier pros, who have been playing for a long time. The only people who are able to have a chance against them would be other pros or hackers. Take for example CS:GO - there are plenty of people using aimbot or wallhack to cheat in even competitive, where there's no profit in it. The thing is, a gambling program with this kind of thing wouldn't be able to be regulated unless someone is moderating the game during the event, and if it becomes large enough, you won't really be able to deal with the amount of players.

So, you have no collateral whatsoever and therefore, no reason for us to trust you? What do you think logically would happen if you just asked a bunch of people for 830 USD? Do you expect them to believe you? Get over your "paranoia" and go seek out a loan in real life. It's not that difficult if you're able to earn so much money.

I think probably the difference in post count is due to the 2 posts in Archival. Replies to topics in there may not result in an additive post count to your profile.

EDIT: apparently I was wrong. I searched for the posts/section on http://www.bctalkaccountpricer.info/ for Chris! but the only other one is Beginners & Help, and I'm pretty sure that counts towards your post count.
