Well, I choose this [Casual Social Gamblers].
Most of the time in gambling I spent only a little amount that thinks that it is enough to have fun while gambling because in my perception gambling is just a source of fun and a source of funds or become a source of income. If you know how to control yourself and gamble moderately daily, there is no threat waiting ahead like having emotional damage that most likely triggers when your axiety will up to the next level.,
spending a little money to gamble and trying to make the money can still be played for 2 hours or 4 hours by choosing a small bet is the type of gambler who can control his emotions. thinking of gambling as entertainment is one way to control emotions and anxiety while gambling. because there are so many gamblers who consider gambling as a source of making money and always chase their losses without him realizing it is the wrong way to get more money and after that they will definitely do with big bets or go all in when the emotion comes to mind
5942  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: POSSIBLE THINGS TO HELP US TO WIN AT CRYPTO CASINOS on: July 25, 2022, 04:37:08 AM
I don't know any strategy on how to win at the slots, much less a large sum. These machines aren't made to win money, they're made for entertainment. While playing, it may happen that you win some amount of money to give the feeling that you can win, but in the end all the money will be lost. But you'll have a good time if you enjoy playing slots.

agree! playing slot is like playing a game to relieve stress in spare time and when getting a win it is a bonus when entertaining yourself and if getting a loss it is a normal thing when playing games.

but not just slot, playing poker, roulette etc is actually gambling for entertainment when we are bored with our free time. there are some gamblers who expect to always win at gambling, but for me that is a mistake.
5943  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The characteristics of people who are addicted to online gambling on: July 24, 2022, 11:02:03 AM
Those who don't have discipline and have a lot of money to spend is the one that always fell into addiction, not all people who used to gamble sometimes because most of them for sure, just trying their luck and it's all done..   Cheesy
What I'm trying to say is it's impossible to happen to some people that has financial problems and lack of source of income because for them at the first place its very skeptical way to make profits. So the one that becomes addicted in gambling will be the rich people. And its their problem why they all have addiction because if they consider it as a risky way of making money, then surely they will not end up in such situation.. Lol

not all gambling addicts are rich people.
there are a lot of people in my city who are addicts to gambling and they are not from the rich but they are from the poor. so they consider gambling as a source of earning money for their daily lives and if they lose they will continue to pursue losses and losses by borrowing money from anyone or selling valuable items they have.
so there were some people in my town he was a poor man who continued his addiction to gambling until he became poorer and depressed lost it all.
from my story, it can be seen that gambling addiction is not only from the rich
5944  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can change of environment have an effect on gambling addiction. on: July 24, 2022, 06:07:51 AM

Truth, a person who has plans of entering gambling can be restricted through the environment. Same time a person who have got addicted can't be changed through a change in environment. Nowadays everything is in the palm, so unlike the environment the user will participate into gambling activities.
In our culture and religion - we migrate when then we fail at one place. Be it health, wealth or any personal loss.
It is in our books that migration is healthy and one must do it if they are in trouble. And we usually change the place. Being stagnant is useless. One must move on!
i appreciate your culture mate.
indeed changing places to be better avoiding everything that smells of gambling, that is one of the keys to stop gambling and become better. even though someone thinks it's useless to move and get a place to live far from offline gambling but still playing online gambling is just a waste of time. but for me it's not in vain. because if a gambler gets a place to live far from offline gambling and gets lots of friends who always talk about business, it will make the gambler forget his addiction. because he will think there is another way to get money by doing business without having to play gambling
5945  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: An alternative to gambling with money. on: July 24, 2022, 05:56:41 AM
-snip
I believe if one has decided to do something or to leave something. One should think so many times once decided should do it with full mind and heart.
If something is done with half mind - it will not be achieved and also the fake money is not helpful in fulfilling the persons need. Its purely waste of time
i agree with you. when a gambler wants to stop gambling but not with sincerity of mind and heart it will only waste time and in the end he will return to gambling again. all of this must be done seriously, at least avoiding the environment that affects gambling. moving residence to a place far from the gambling environment is one example of the seriousness of someone wanting to stop gambling.
and by keeping himself busy with work and in every spare time he does positive things such as holding fundraisers for people in need.


but if the gambler really has become an addict who is very difficult to stop but has the desire to stop gambling the only way is to ask for help from a psychologist
5946  Economy / Gambling / Re: Would you support a collective boycott of all Russian gambling platforms? on: July 24, 2022, 04:37:33 AM
i am currently thinking if we all boycott all gambling sites or other sites from russia but it turns out that the owners of these sites are not citizens who fully agree with the war being carried out and the owners of these sites have to provide for their families, will we also be that bad? i think boycotting gambling sites is not the right decision because gambling owners don't necessarily support the war to happen. as far as i know, many russians don't agree with the war, but they can't go against putin's decision.
and for gambling sites 1xBET and 1xBit, whether it's russian or not, but i wasn't there. it's not that i support the russian boycott but i'm just afraid that the allegations of the gambling scam have not been resolved
5947  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: This clearly damage the gambling. on: July 23, 2022, 08:55:24 PM
Well i cant put more words, the video says it all.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NsB15QKz9No&ab_channel=EBDSports


I really think this damage the trust in the sports bets, or anything related to sports gambling, I know a lot can say it's a kind of protest but still really unclear.


If the organizer of that event did not punish those who are involved in that game fixing it can damage only sports events in that country, you don't include sports in general, game fixing exists in every sport but it should not be in major events because people are paying and advertisers are pouring in millions to give a fair and honest game, in general, this will not damage the whole sports betting community, its just your perception that it will damage when it's not.
It will only ruin the reputation of those who manage the sports event and not the whole sports betting community because it doesn't happen in all countries, especially in huge events. It will also ruin the trust of bettors and might avoid every event that they might set in the future. They should do something about it because it will be too unfair for bettors who are risking their funds for the game.
such incidents often happen in local leagues not in the big leagues and maybe some gamblers are aware of such occurrences. so most gamblers prefer big league sports betting over local leagues.
for reputation problems, such broadcasts should not need to be broadcast and the publisher of the video should be punished so that such shows are not reported again. because there are some beginner gamblers after seeing the video they must be afraid to bet on sports gambling

You aren't going to get rich investing in Bitcoin now though unless it goes to 1 million dollars. It's much easier to get a 100x investing in promising microcap alts like Lamina1 and CNDL, and that is why people do it.
someone has their own goals when choosing crypto to be an investment asset, well, although right now i'm not rich when i only hold bitcoin before the bitcoin price dump to $200k. lol
if indeed you can get more than 100x profits and can get a profit of $ 1 million dollars from the altcoins you mention do it, if it is the best for you. good luck Wink
5949  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Shiba Inu's future on: July 23, 2022, 11:28:25 AM
if you intend to buy shiba coins for long term investment, i suggest you don't buy too much
That's right, as shib is a meme coin and they are considered to be high risk so we should allocate small amounts on them only to test our luck like we are playing a gambling.
but it's more fun to gamble than buying meme coins and holding them for the long term  Grin


Altcoins are much safer than meme coins (tokens) so it's fine to invest on them in this period
yes it's true, but i also still think that shiba is also one of the altcoins. indeed there is no prohibition against investing in altcoins during this season, but i just remind the OP that it is better to choose to invest in bitcoin or at least buy ethereum instead of buying meme coins


Prices of the coins are falling but isn't that a blessing in disguise?
when the price is down, that's the right time to buy cheaply, but if you want to buy altcoins, don't go for the long term and don't put all your money into buying altcoins. just buy with some of your money and get daily profit
5950  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Would Bitcoin recover even if it fell to one dollar? on: July 23, 2022, 06:06:29 AM
Don't know why we discuss these baseless things like these. Bitcoin can never reach one dollar and if it reached one dollar, it would mean that it going to zero and dead.

Yes, bitcoin may dump to 5000$ to 10000$ and still reach to its all time high again. Although i think that bitcoin may never reach these low values.

Even in his assumption, bitcoin will recover. For bitcoin to get to $1, it means it's dead already. Let's assume that nothing happened to bitcoin protocol, there's no hardworking or compromise of the network. It's just price dump to $1. What will happen is that people will start buying again, hoping to be billionaires when it goes back to its ATH. Traders will enter to look for daily profits, buy this it will start rising again and again. This literally shows that bitcoin cannot die based on price dump only.

as said by @Smack That Ace Bitcoin is dead! it is very unlikely that bitcoin will go dump to the price of $ 1 because in every bitcoin price decrease there will be many investors who buy again and hold it until the price reaches ATH. as every bitcoin price goes down some big investors are stalking it and immediately get the chance to buy bitcoins cheaply.
no matter what happens, bitcoin will never drop in price to $1, it's impossible
5951  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I Have Donated My Campaign BTC to buy Laptop for Practical Classes on: July 23, 2022, 05:29:51 AM
good achievement for Agbe.
very wise when you get paid from campaigns in this forum and with a sincere heart you want to buy something of value for those in need. i really admired you when you bought laptops for school children and you sincerely taught them about bitcoin for basic knowledge in the future.
for me lessons about bitcoin like lessons that are valuable in the future and more valuable than other students.
and i really salute you when you ventured to meet the principal asking for permission to give lessons about bitcoin.
i hope your story provides an example to anyone that will also be done in several countries about bitcoin lessons.

i really appreciate you Agbe
5952  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is dead! on: July 23, 2022, 03:10:33 AM
the more news about bitcoin's decline the more news media will cover it and more and more people will know about bitcoin and once the bitcoin price starts to rise, those who don't really know about bitcoin will start buying bitcoin because after seeing the news of the price drop and they know that if bitcoin goes up, will get a big profit. like people in my city when the bitcoin price went down, they said a lot of bitcoin would die but when the bitcoin price went up they actually started buying it until now. so from the news of the decline in the price of bitcoin, i actually thank you for attracting many people to give knowledge to people who don't know about bitcoin and when they know about it, they start buying it.
and i can't imagine when everyone buys bitcoin and the price goes up to $200k. definitely more people will buy
5953  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Ignore the dip and Invest in Bitcoin for long term on: July 22, 2022, 02:11:51 PM
As bitcoin is a volatile asset, it is best to invest in BTC for the long term. In the short term, fluctuations in supply and demand are very likely to mess with the price level on a regular basis. But on the other hand, bitcoin has shown a consistent and prominent growth over the long term ever since its launch. It is always a safe choice to invest in bitcoin for a long term.
Because the proof already exists for now on Bitcoin when viewed from the time Bitcoin was launched. So obviously choosing Bitcoin for the long term is a good thing and also highly recommended although for the short term it won't always be bad if everyone can be very happy with a little profit through Bitcoin.
it all comes back to yourself how to treat bitcoin, for the long term or for the short term.
all of them are equally good just different in the profit is much more when held for longer.
and i saw the bitcoin price change in recent days from $20,000 to $24,000. this is one example of indeed investing in bitcoin is very profitable, whether it's short term or long term. and i think now is the right time to buy bitcoin after that hold it for the long term and hope the price will hit ATH
5954  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Everything stop on: July 22, 2022, 11:15:47 AM
Todays current situation for Luna all my works just stop and cant belive whats going on with this scenario!!  Lost too much in my life savings!! Now thinking about invest on btc at least there is no chance like 98% dump at least stable coin looking to more risky!!
i'm sad to hear that. but after all that has happened to you right now can teach you a lesson not to put all your money in other coins besides bitcoin and ethereum.
indeed investing in crypto has a very big risk for investors. but if we can put our money in the right coins like bitcoin or ethereum, there may still be hope in the future. because the popularity of bitcoin and ethereum is very clear and has a very good value in the future even though the price is currently down, it will definitely go up again in the future. we can remember the price of bitcoin in 2017 rose to $ 20,000 and dump to the price of $ 5000 after that in 2022 bitcoin rose again at the price of $ 60,000.
from this we know that bitcoin has a much better future than other altcoins. like LUNA is one of the altcoins that made many investors lose a lot of money and have almost no hope in the future after the crash
5955  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Shiba Inu's future on: July 22, 2022, 08:47:54 AM
According to my observations I think that this coin will grow but not really sure whether i should try to buy and hold some or try micro trading. I'm sure that there're lots of experienced traders who can give me an advice
if you intend to buy shiba coins for long term investment, i suggest you don't buy too much and don't bet your money on altcoins at this time of bad market.
after you buy some shiba coins try to hold them for the next 6 months and do your own research whether you change well in shiba coins. after you are sure and able to bear all the risks, you can put your money in large amounts in shiba coins
5956  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What do you think about TON? on: July 22, 2022, 05:36:12 AM
I've invested some money in it and waiting for its growth but it's kinda stable rn. Also I'm wodering should i invest more moeny in it or no. When do you think it will grow and will it grow at all? Really want to hear the opinion of some more experienced traders
after i opened coin marketcap and saw there were some TON coins in there. i'm not sure which coin the OP meant.
but for me right now investing in any altcoin is not the right time when bearish are hitting the market.
indeed investing in crypto all has a big risk but for now the best for investment is bitcoin.
because bitcoin for me is a stable asset for the long term and very profitable in the future. maybe you need to consider this matter. because if you invest wrong you will lose some of your money
5957  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Hoping to see a bitcointalk token sooner on: July 22, 2022, 04:54:59 AM
This is the birthplace of crypto and many people learnt alot from here
you already said that this forum was the birthplace of crypto and the first crypto was bitcoin. from here you should know that nothing but bitcoin is the identity of this forum. you don't have to expect the forum to create alternative tokens

is it not fair for this platform to get a token that can be traded in the market.
don't talk about fairness here if you've already said "many people learn a lot from here". if indeed someone here intends to seek knowledge about crypto or bitcoin, he will not ask for any justice here. unless someone is here just to profit from the bounty campaign after the project is a scam don't pay and ask for justice

other content management platform has then own crypto that are been traded and use as a means of rewards to their users
if you're talking about rewards, you shouldn't expect the forum to reward everyone using alternative tokens. you just need to go the bounty thread and there you will find some campaign bounty projects that will reward you and maybe the tokens can also be traded in the market

not everyone can afford bitcoin now
anyone can buy a few bitcoins for a small amount of money too, bro. one doesn't have to buy 1 bitcoin or 2 bitcoins just to save. you can also buy bitcoin with your money $1. don't complain about not being able to buy bitcoins. because bitcoin doesn't force people to buy everything

we need an altcoin as an alternative token here for payment of service.
if you only need tokens for service payments, maybe you need to come here Bounties (Altcoins)

5958  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Be careful buying alts right now on: July 21, 2022, 06:09:27 PM
Buying Altcoin and Bitcoin certainly has the opportunity to lose, this has happened since Bitcoin is present at Exchange, there is always an opportunity to lose money, especially since the current market conditions are increasingly difficult and the number of scam projects that add to the image of cryptocurrencies is getting worse.
I doubt there is more alts scam when the market is being like this. I mean you have to realize there are now new flow of money and investors. No enough to keep the old alts running hence price keep going down across all coins.
Bear market is the perfect time to buy bitcoin. At this time, if you invest in Bitcoin, its returns will come relatively quickly. But many people keep running towards altcoins instead of investing in Bitcoin. There is possibility to high return at the same time it also takes no time to lose. Because if bitcoin dumps 2 percent some altcoins dump 15-20 percent. So investors should think carefully before investment.
i agree with your opinion on this.
when the market is bearish it is better to choose bitcoin for investment assets than put money in altcoins.
there are also other options besides bitcoin for investment that may not be as good for me as bitcoin, namely ethereum. these few days i see the movement of ethereum and bitcoin start to rise again and if only for short term investment very good
5959  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to grow my wallet? on: July 21, 2022, 12:22:31 PM
Assuming I've made up my mind to hold on to a token for many years but after a year this token hit a new ATH what should I do as a newbie? Sell or not sell?
there is no denying that an investor buys coins and makes them an asset for the long term only to get a price that is much more expensive than the initial price when buying. so if you buy a coin and it's only been a few months since the coin reached a new ATH, it might be better if you sell it you get a 100%-200% profit. and after selling the coin maybe you have to wait a few days or months to buy again at a low price and you hold it until the price reaches ATH again.


but it's all up to you to sell your coins or not. because all decisions and risks are only you who bear it
5960  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Am I doing the right thing on: July 21, 2022, 05:25:09 AM
-snip

It's their decision, and if they want to experience it, we should let them experience it. the coins OP mentioned are also potential altcoins and worth the investment. As long as the OP doesn't put all his eggs in one basket, knows how to divide his portfolio properly, he can still make a significant profit with the altcoin above.
but at least we as seniors here explain to beginners how big the risk is when investing in new altcoins and we can also give advice to the OP if you want to get the best and stable investment in bitcoin or ethereum.
even if he doesn't put all his money in the new altcoin project but if the project crashes and collapses, he will still lose some of his money.
maybe when he loses his money because of investing in a new project, it can be an experience for him not to repeat investing in new altcoins. but at least we can save newbies from losing more money and give advice for investing in bitcoin or ethereum
