61  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Pacquiao vs Matthysse July 15 2018 on: June 01, 2018, 12:41:48 AM
Seriously, Manny Pacquiao should just retire he is old and really slow compare before when he really young he moves so fast and quick unlike today he cares all about the money. This is all about the money now, boxing is all about the money. After Manny Pacquiao's last fight it was really rigged probably, they paid Manny Pacquiao to lose so that the young boxer can be a star on his own and even challenged Mayweather the chicken boxer. Boxing now is really like acting now they are being controlled by the management for money, which is why I don't watch boxing anymore.
62  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ripple - long term or shorting? on: May 31, 2018, 10:16:45 PM
What's your approach towards Ripple? I can see both sides making sense.



For me, I think Ripple is more like a long-term investment than short-term but it can also be both if you know how to trade it can be both because for me I think ripple can be a great asset in the future like bitcoin. In my preference Ripple might be the next bitcoin that can sky-rocket high in the future but patience is always the key to trading. In short, it is really up to you on how you invest but for me, I'm more into long-term so I would always go for long-term investment.
63  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: GPU OR Mining machine on: May 31, 2018, 10:13:16 PM
I'm a newbie in mining working world. Which mining system is more profitable??
Mining rig or Mining machine like antminer.
Which is better??


I joined a group on facebook where the group members suggested me to mine with a GPU and those guys who bought an ant-miner regretted to why they bought an expensive mining machine which its not much profitable as having a high-end GPU which you can also use in other stuff like gaming or programming if you are into computers. I myself would prefer to mine with GPU because as I said it can be multi-use than having an antminer.

What blogs or channels do you prefer most when you need to get knowledge about crypto, wallets and crypto market? Just found hacker noon on medium and CCN website:) Can you share more?

To educate yourself you need to actually get into the crypto world is to take your time and be patient in learning and asking because the only way you can actually learn about it is through people here in the forum or as you said blogs or channels. There are also actual courses that you can take online if you have time but I'm not sure if its free or not. Good luck  Wink
65  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Addiction Stories! on: May 31, 2018, 10:05:32 PM
One of my Mom's friend actually got addicted to gambling in the actual casino, she is single and living alone by herself. Whenever she got off to work she goes to the casino and play until midnight and go home after, same routine every day that's how addicted she is until one day she decided to quit so she makes herself banned into the casino which I did not know that you can actually get banned if you request it in the casino management. So she did ban herself from gambling and now she is not addicted anymore, she lifted her ban but she still play but rarely now.
66  Economy / Speculation / Re: Price manipulation on: May 31, 2018, 09:50:39 PM
I read that they are investigating criminal price manipulations over Bitcoin. Manipulation of prices is really possible ? This happened before ?

There have been reported accidents that companies manipulate the price of bitcoin or any other coins that they are trading, it is 100% possible and it has happened before. They always do this so that they can make more money, especially they can make more future with high fees which they manipulate.
67  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BTC for taxi on: May 30, 2018, 05:45:24 PM
Depending on the company they may or may not accept bitcoin because it is not stable and it is gonna hard for the company to pay their drivers with money that is really not stable like fiat money. If they really want to maybe they can but there will be a big adjustment in their company. It will be possible if bitcoin price will be stable but for now, it is still hard for it to come true.
68  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin SCAM! on: May 30, 2018, 04:33:38 PM
Good thing that you did not invest with your friend and did your own research because if you do invest in that company your money would be also vanished I know it was tempting because it is your friend who you trusted but then they got scammed. So always make sure search their company online for reviews if it is legit or not this is why I don't trust someone immediately because I know many people now are scamming to get some money. So do your own research and do not believe immediately.
69  Other / Off-topic / Re: Money for school fees. Invested in bitcoin. on: May 30, 2018, 03:21:27 PM
Hi there! I just need your advice. I invested the money instead of paying my school fees. Yeah, i know this is wrong because education is more important to us and it can't be stealed from us, i'm still studying but my fees will be doubled on the next payment. But i believe this will end a good result. What do you think about this ? Your advice will be highly appreciated. Thanks!

This is really interesting, I'm really not sure why you did invest instead of paying your school fees. First of all, you need education so that you can earn more and so that you can get the knowledge from it but investing with bitcoin than investing in your future is kinda the wrong direction if I were you I would have invested your money in your education because learning and education is also an investment. Bitcoin will always be there and you can invest any time when you finish your school but you already have invested it you might as well earn from it and withdraw it to pay with your school fees if you still have time. Good luck  Wink
70  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Which is more risky? Bitcoin or bank investment? on: May 30, 2018, 02:45:58 PM
Depending on what kind of investment that you want in the bank, if you want a high interest in the bank then you need to invest a lot of money for you to get a high-interest income in your investment but in bitcoin is also a risky investment due to high volatility in the price. As you said you can actually choose on which investment type that you want in the bank if you like to invest in low, medium, or high-risk investment but then you need to pay the bank and the one that is managing your portfolio and other fees that the banks will get depending on which bank you are in but in bitcoin you only need to have a wallet and know about investing but then it is you who decide when are you gonna sell and buy so there are cons and pros on both but it is up to you on which type of investment you want.
71  Economy / Speculation / Re: Futures destroyed Bitcoin on: May 30, 2018, 02:41:43 PM
I bet the twins regret getting Bitcoin listed on the CME.
Bitcoin Futures will keep the price LOW!
In futures no one buys bitcoin!
It just a bet: up or down

You can think about what you want but you can't change our minds and still invest with bitcoin. We believe that bitcoin is the future currency and it will increase in the future years and will be stable at a high price. This is why many people are still investing and getting into bitcoin and all of us are not regretting in investing if you back out that means that you are too afraid and don't deserve to be in here and earn with bitcoin.
72  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2018 NBA Season on: May 30, 2018, 02:37:15 PM
As we arrive in the Finals, between Golden State Warriors and the Cleveland Cavaliers the match is really favored to GSW due to that most of their players are healthy and there are 3-5 healthy Allstars playing in their team but on the other side in the Cavs team only Lebron and Love are playing their best and they already have a hard time to play with Boston and Lebron can't play all the time and not getting exhausted while in the other side they have rotations of Allstars that can make points and win the game. If Cavs wants to win this they need their team to step up and not just got carried by Lebron. If just Lebron did not get all the credits from the couple years when Kyrie was their Kyrie would have stayed but they did not appreciate him enough that he decides to get traded.  They would have a change with Kyrie in there but then next year when all Boston Celtics are healthy Boston Celtics will be in the finals
73  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin still a buy despite recent losses on: May 30, 2018, 02:36:00 AM
Many people still buy bitcoin especially in the recent decrease because this is actually a good opportunity to invest due to the low price and it can benefit until it increases again in the future this is why many people are still investing. Good investors see all opportunity as a positive investment and if you are really eager you can earn a lot from it.  Wink
74  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you set up limits for yourself? on: May 29, 2018, 05:15:56 PM
Setting a limit on yourself when gambling is very important and it is vital in gambling because not a lot of people has the courage to set themselves a limit because they really want to win more. It is a personal nature to be greedy and to want more even if they are already rich or when they already have the money to do buy stuff. Many people get bankrupt or get broke because of not limiting themselves whenever I gamble I always set how much I gamble and after that, I stop because I don't want to waste my money on it.
75  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin insurance. on: May 29, 2018, 03:34:29 PM
Hi I eagerly want to that is there any insurance company that offers services to protect investment in btc or any cryptocurrency. If you know please share.


I really haven't heard an insurance company that accepts bitcoin as payment, because I do think that insurance company is not ready to invest to accept bitcoin because it is still too volatile and it is hard to predict the market price. You can try a search on google and probably you can actually see some companies that do this kind of investment that you want. You can check this site if it helps. http://innovationinsurancegroup.com/our-services/bitcoin-brokerage-agency/. Good luck  Cheesy
76  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to know if Bounty is scam? on: May 29, 2018, 03:07:49 PM
How do you know if it is a scam? Because I have encountered a bounty that let me finish all the translations first and didn't respond to me after I have passed it. I hope bounties will not be like this anymore because they demand and we did our part but they didn't do theirs. I hope you could answer my question.


You will know if it is a scam whenever you check the ICO website or whitepaper it is really not clear or it is just copied by the other legit bounty. Also, you also need to check that the bounty who is managing it doesn't have negative trust because for sure those legit managers don't have time to accept scam bounty because they are also earning from it. If you have been working here in the forum you know which managers are legit and can be trusted be always careful and always check before applying.
77  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can somebody steal your btc? on: May 25, 2018, 11:50:37 AM
Hi, have you ever thought this?

You know that, to import a wallet you need the private key or your seed. Taking as example the private key (the 52 letters key). It could exist the possibility someone create a software whose function was to try thousands of times to find the private key till it is be done.This would be like the process to find the new block in mining, anyway you can try the times you want in order to find it.

I think this could be a weakness, correct me if I am wrong. Smiley

Or comment if you have a kind of solution for this...

Regards!




You are not wrong about that, the possibility is endless and maybe someone will actually do that and try every possible combination that is available but then that is why we have passwords and two-factor authentication which will put a layer in your wallet in any case if someone will hack it or someone will actually hear or sees it on your computer. There has been a lot of hacking that is happening even trading websites which they got stolen for million of coins are still not safe but then the only thing that you can do is protect your wallet and keep it personal that is simple.
78  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is there any gambling site that uses bitcoin? on: May 25, 2018, 01:33:20 AM
There are lots of websites that accept bitcoin and it is the most used coin in online gambling compared to other coins it is your job to look for one yourself if you are interested in gambling so bad but I would not recommend gambling though because it would be just a waste of time and waste of money, investment is always the best to do with bitcoin and nothing else but then it is your bitcoin and it is you who can decide. So good luck and hope for the best. Cheesy
79  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Does crypto bring more risk than benefit? on: May 25, 2018, 12:02:03 AM
Central bank Governor of Spain has told the cryptos bring more risk than the benefits to get. but I believe on more risk more gain theory. If you can not trust crypto, you will not be able to see its value. Risk is associated with all kinda business. It just has to be calculated properly that which one would be profitable for you.

please share your thoughts in favor of mine statement or against.

Probably, the government was just afraid of crypto that they say that as a warning to those people that wants to learn and invest with bitcoin. Investing is really a high risk always especially if you are talking about bitcoin, but for me it is different. If you are smart enough you can get high gain than risks with crypto, the risks are only when the market price goes down but in trading depends on the person. Think about what you believe and not others will you will be successful in the future.
80  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Buy low and sell high is very tough on: May 24, 2018, 11:58:20 PM
When you ask someone for advise they always say buy low and sell high but this is very tough.

What is your strategy for buying low and selling high?

Do you agree with buy low and sell high is very tough?


It is hard if you have really no experience on trading, especially you just started learning bitcoin and not only that it can be so very tough to decide when to sell and to buy. I myself tried to do it but it is just hard to predict when it will go up or down, patience is really important in investing especially for mature traders. For me, I did not continue trading because I really suck on predicting and being patient but for those who really wants to learn do more research and good luck. Wink
