601  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does positive thinking affect your edge in gambling on: July 15, 2018, 09:16:52 AM
It actually does affect your inner self if, and will give you have the winning edge in gambling, How? It simply makes you feel more determined, stress does not come to you, and within your positive optimistic thinking you'll gain the winning edge, in gambling people tend to intimidate their opponents in effect of making the opponents fear you or making them think in a critical way that makes them vulnerable, in this way you can mentally intimidate them and make them easier to interact with, and this is why positive thinking is important.
I hope you know that feeling more determined in gambling which apparently means trying to focus on winning would actually make you stress, depressed, frustrated easily while getting emotionally clouded in your judgments when it comes to gambling.

That is one thing a lot of people do not know and they usually feel that as long as you are having a positive mindset you will be fine. I am not saying positive mindset is bad, but better to be principled, have a limit, and face reality even while being positive. Being positive will always lead to severe addictions. Not just with gambling, nowhere we need to be positive all the times. We must react based on situations and results.
602  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is best practice for gambling?? on: July 15, 2018, 08:46:42 AM
May anyone tell me what is the best practice for gambling with little investment? I have no so much experiance about it.Any suggestion or advice.

Gambling is not a good for investment because there is a big risk that you will just lose on it. But if you are eager to do gambling the best practice would be you must know when to stop, win or lose. Just what they advise to gamblers/investors "just invest/play what you can afford to lose". If you already won stop don't be greedy it will just end up bust, if you lose stop also don't ever chase the amount you already lose because you will just end up losing more.
Gambling was never meant to be an investment, it is a game and luck is applicable to the game when it comes to winning anything at all. The worse mistake a lot of people make when it comes to bad practice is by expecting that winning to come to them all the time or most of the time.

You should not even be expecting it all, and should only see it as just one little good part of the game and the fun, but better to see what you enjoy on the game and concentrate more on that than the winning as that makes more sense.

Maybe a best practice with gambling should be, having a resolution for not spending anything from your hand. Make use of promotions and giveaways to find entertainment or your future if you have skills. For unskilled gamblers, the best practice will be staying away or immigrate to gambling banned countries.
603  Economy / Speculation / Re: It's not too late to sell on: July 15, 2018, 08:06:01 AM
I wonder why there are still people interested to sell, the market is looking goot at the moment but only to invest, selling at this point is one of the worst mistakes that you can actually make, i dont understand all that bunch of people that are impatient
I guess that some of them are impatient, but there are others that really don't have other option. What would you do if you were in some situation where you really need money and fast, but you have nothing else than your bitcoins? I guess most of the people would sell part or every coin they posses so that they could solve their problems. This is just one situations and there are many more.
Anyone who is even selling now must have actually gotten at the dip and trying to make quick profit from it, but one thing I am certain about right now is that the market cannot end up down forever and we will surely see a very good move to the upper side in the long run which is why taking advantage of this bear trend to accumulate is always the best deal.

Just like in stocks, you take advantage of every trend to make good profit and this is the buying time, not the selling period for smart investors.
604  Economy / Speculation / Re: Be patient or take a risk for money??? on: July 15, 2018, 07:20:36 AM
I think waiting and holding up with the High patience is the main capital in investing in cryptocurrency, I think they are the main capital if you want to succeed in investing because in that way will keep us from panic.
Being a successful investor depends on your pattern of investment but a very successful one will always know when to be getting out of a market and when to be getting into a market. Patience is a virtue that is needed of course, but at the same time, being smart is actually another virtue that is very much needed.

Panicking is basically for those who are stupid enough to always get into something for the wrong reasons without having enough knowledge to get them through making good decisions. I am not seeing any risk in buying now bitcoins. Bitcoin market must be in end of down trend hence buying now will not disappoint anyone.
605  Economy / Speculation / Re: What will happen after the last bitcoine is mined? on: July 15, 2018, 06:48:20 AM
Hello community. After the last bitcoin is extracted, will it become a mass payment unit in the world? Its price on crypto-exchanges will be stable? Share your thoughts, I'm very interested.
Transaction fee is there and by then, there is a possibility that the miners will be earning just that, which is why I believe there would be few miners by then, and those who have been around for a while would be making something tangible from it.
Also, the protocol could end up being changed and who knows, there could be a way in which miners will not be needed any more and only the coins in circulation will be used but in that case transaction confirmation will have to be taking another turn.
606  Economy / Economics / Re: regulation and legalization of cryptocurrency on: July 14, 2018, 03:14:30 PM
I thik we can not blame them for that, but to think that they've made their move to accept crypto is not a bad idea. This is an advance, maybe in the future they can receive more crypto.
At least, that is one good step and it is actually fair enough. The thing here is that if countries can just allow the space to develop with very lenient and slight regulation which obviously show they are not trying to kick against the space but rather want to bring sanity for everyone to be happy including the country itself, these are absolutely some of the things we will sure keep seeing as time goes on. Let's see how things would gradually be turning out.

Government will really provide different laws for cryptocurrency if its affecting their own economy because in this way they can stabilize the countries economy.
Concerns over their fiat economy is the prime reason for why governments are prioritizing the regulations and legalization. But I believe no one can stop crypto economy to take over the traditional economic systems.
607  Economy / Economics / Re: My Advice on Investing in Crypto on: July 14, 2018, 02:44:39 PM
Yes investing in crypto is a pretty well good idea.Those who cant afford to invest in high investment can invest in crypto because it has more lower value of investment and people can invest easily.Through your investment it can also help contribute for the development of a certain community and get more improved technology.But investing in crypto is more risky because there are lots of fraud projects.Thats why it needs more research and studies before investing in crypto.
Yes, it is a very good investment idea but at the same time it comes with a pretty huge risk which you really need to understand those risks so you can do better in terms of decision in this market. Over my years of investing, I have never actually seen an investment as solid and profitable as cryptocurrency and even so easy to invest in despite the volatility as long as you are well informed on how to play your cards well, which in this space, a lot of people do not, all because they just want to hop in without any research and get rich fast.

The present time must be a rare and very good opportunity for those who are all looking for comparatively cheaper prices to enter in. I have started to buy some highly established coins on dips. I guess they may make me rich in 2 to 3 years of times.
608  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Scam scam scam!! on: July 14, 2018, 12:40:00 PM
Some red flags for the beginners in the crypto world! Make sure to check these red flags before investing in any ICO.

1.CLAIMS OF HIGH, GUARANTEED RETURNS.
2.CELEBRITY ENDORSEMENTS.  (check their SNS where announcements are made to make sure they are genuine).
3.CLAIMS OF “SEC-COMPLIANT” (guarantees that their coins will trade on an SEC-compliant exchange where you can buy and sell them for profit)
4. INVESTING WITH A CREDIT CARD.
5. PUMP AND DUMP SCAMS.(Tempting you with guaranteed gains with pumps and dumps during pre ico to crowd sale)
6.Team members without any social profile. if they provide be sure to check the genuinity on basis of followers and background.
7.Language( grammar is correct or not)
 
and if you have done these (or not)  BE SURE TO READ THE WHITEPAPER!!
That sixth reason is even enough for any smart person to know they should not even be investing at all in such a project in the first place and it is not even about any social profile, but team that does not have old social profile that has been up and running, fully functional for a long time, should not even be attempted by anyone to invest in such.

I have seen occasions where some teams will newly open LinkedIn page and put some bullshit positions or responsibilities they have had but in this day and age, any professional person in the tech industry that is just newly opening a social profile and most especially a professional one is a suspect.
609  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How do you feel now? on: July 14, 2018, 10:40:10 AM
If you came into crypto without care to learn about the tech then you're probably not doing so hot...

However, if you spent meaningful time immersing yourself in the future of blockchain, there's no concern to be had. The number of jobs in the industry is increasing each day, and this emerging sector is not going to reverse any time soon. Now is as good a time as ever to get involved.
The thing is that a lot of people or investors who are new are inexperienced and they never cared about trying to learn as much as they can to be able to equip themselves to make long term decisions in the market to their advantage.

As long as that is in play, they will always panic for the wrong reasons and make decisions that end up not suiting them since all they do is make panic decisions. This is a very strong market, and it is growing daily, and even if it is manipulated downward, why people cannot just get the idea, of investing in the dips so as to take advantage of the long term benefits rather than complain.
610  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Persistence is more important than luck? on: July 14, 2018, 09:01:22 AM
-snip
You do have some point although, you wobbled it all up by not constructing your sentences well and made it hard to understand most of the things you have wrote. However, with the idea of being persistent, it is an attribute that is needed for someone who understands the length at which this space can develop in the long run.

You cannot just expect to get rich overnight as you need to work for it and earn it which will even make you appreciate you wealth. Nevertheless, patience is even more of an attribute that is needed pre or post ICO as you get the best only when you are patient for it.
611  Economy / Speculation / Re: Main reason for the price drop on: July 14, 2018, 08:11:18 AM
The reason for the price reduction is the multiplayer effect by the security of the hacker into the machine will take away the bitcoin and the altcoin they make investor confidence shake or labor structure also contributed. The market has fallen sharply
Investor who gets ripped off by hackers actually would end up that way due to their own lack of making use of strong security to their wallets. The market however is far more than investors getting scared because of that, but the fact that a lot of investors or will I say inexperienced newbie investors who got into FOMO last year are being shaken off by the whales so as to get back in at the dip and keep holding a stronger position in the long run and all these are possible because the market is speculative in nature and most people are just looking to get rich and not investing based on what the market value really is about.
612  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What will be the best cryptocurrency in 2018-2019 on: July 13, 2018, 06:21:51 PM
Let's see how the market will play against expectations

Except bitcoin and Ethereum out. I believe EOS and Cardano (ADA) will be very explosive. They will be the cryptocurrency of the future
If we are really looking at explosion in terms of value increase in percentage, the truth is that no one can actually know.
EOS, ADA, LTC and so on can come up with a huge price but to me when it comes to best, I am looking at the value it creates to the community and how well it is being used.

Truthfully, I would say it is only ETH that is actually being used to its fullest right now as a smart contract platform but does not still mean that we should just expect the price to just boom as a lot of people usually expect.
613  Economy / Speculation / Re: discuss the market? on: July 13, 2018, 05:49:40 PM
Today I am really satisfied with the price of the altcoin as well as the altcoin you can have different trading days with the mood depending on the price as well as the trading situation on that day.
Well, the mood is changing already pretty fast with bitcoin showing huge sign of some further downward trend, so I will expect that anyone who is smart enough to pick the pieces of the profit from alts they have been able to accrue should be doing that now. The correction is still on and in the short term, I have not even seen any serious bounce with volume that would make smart moneys to opt into the market, so it is better to just chill and see how things play out.

We cannot do anything about the nature of bitcoin markets hence we all need to be calm and keep watching for any possible opportunities to buy more. Discussing these type of down market may bring knowledge to some people but only few are making use of these discussions Sad.
614  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Benefits of gambling? Yes - it exists! on: July 13, 2018, 04:51:44 PM
Playing the dice game is a great way to pass the time, and if you play it conservatively you cant lose all your money.
Its nice that I can roll the dice and only risk a few cents- instead of when I bet sports and there is a few mbtc minimum (chance to lose more).
Well, it is a great way if you actually are gambling with what you can afford to lose. Really, I spend a lot of time on my PC doing some work, and since I have some little fund on by freebitco.in account, I just use some script to the roll with very little bet which if I am spending about 12 hours on my system daily, getting as low as 6000 sats on top of them all is not bad since I am not actually working for it anyway.

If everything goes which the chances would be as long as 40 streaks, it is a chance I can take and like I said, it is nothing I cannot afford to lose. Generally, benefit of gambling is far fetched, we all know the chance of losing is high anyway but we still find ourselves going ahead.
615  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you find Success in Gambling? on: July 13, 2018, 04:18:17 PM
I never find anything positive about the gambling because most of the people i see around me will gamble with their hard earned money, only very few times they are very positive about the gambling on that they will make very less amount as profit but on the next day they will be losing more money including earned profit. I never find any person who successfully makes a lot of money through gambling.
I believe so.Gambling makes only a successful one if we did it just for fun and simply entertainment.But the fact that lot of gamblers still play to earn a living,or to win a huge amount without lossing much is so hard to be true.Yes we may win sometimes in gambling but that's just only a small percentage out from those hard-earned money we lose.
The only time anyone can ever be successful from gambling is by being lucky, getting to win a huge amount of money without even expecting it and using that money to do something very nice like a real life investment.

Now, I see such a person as a smart individual who is wise enough to take a huge step in making things better for themselves in the long run, even if they want to take some little bit of their income in the long run to still gamble once in a while, but at least making that huge one get to work, is always a successful way to go.
616  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Lottery or Sweepstake? on: July 13, 2018, 02:44:41 PM
I would prefer lottery honestly but sweepstake is great too since it has no waiting time so both can work out. However I would prefer winning something here and there instead of just hoping for a huge win. Huge win may and most probably never come but low chance low reward is a lot better since I can actually win something. Maybe not a lot, maybe I will lose more than I put in but that is generally the case in gambling anyway.

I also like the idea of "scratch card" which could enter and win out between these two. That way you can both have a rare chance to win big but also chance to get even.
617  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it true that a whale moved 8k BTC? on: July 12, 2018, 01:49:16 PM
I think it does not matter because when whales sell a lot of bitcoin, bitcoin prices will go down and this is the right time to buy. prices will rise again after they buy back.
The problem is that people stress and bore themselves for things that are irrelevant and discard what they should even be concentrating more on which is what you just mentioned. If someone wants to dump on the market to cause a huge movement downwards, those who see the long term value that bitcoin brings will definitely not bother about the dumping in a negative way but will see it as a chance to pick at a much lower value. Quite funny that a lot of people really just keep panicking for no reason and looking for ways to actually subject themselves to unnecessary emotions.
618  Economy / Economics / Re: Tax on the crypto currency! What do you think? on: July 12, 2018, 12:11:51 PM
Taxes will greatly help the country's economy if all the crypto assets that everyone owns apply to pay taxes on each transaction or send tokens and coins. eg 1% or 2% of total assets owned.
Wait wait, are you ok? Tax is needed for economy but it's ok on wages, business profits and etc, what you write is out of sense, tax on every transaction? This make people very, very poor and all the money will be in goverment, do you see any idea here? People try to integratw bitcoin paymends and do much to attract people to use bitcoin and now.you say 1-2% tax on every transaction? Very unlogical.
Yes, no logic with that and I am pretty sure he has no idea of what he was even saying and decided to just opt in. Even value added tax cannot be charged to that level let alone charging every transaction of bitcoin. First off, we are even referring to a decentralized space where we can do P2P transactions without the government monitoring any of it since there is no third party anyway, so charging of every transaction is impossible.

Capital gain tax is what we can apply to the idea of making use of crypto-fiat based exchanges, and in that case, you will be subjected to it, and that percentage will depend on what each government come up with anyway, but every transaction ? The guy is sure high on something.
619  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin recovery? on: July 11, 2018, 05:35:29 PM
This year is a special year for bitcoin, statistics show that in the second quarter of 2018 bitcoin prices ended with a discount of about 8% for the first time in history. All of the previous years have shown bitcoin growth in the second quarter. Do you think this is a bad sign of a long-term downturn of bitcoin or do you still believe in a strong rebound in bitcoin prices? at the end of the year.
No one wants to be assuming anything serious right now in a bear market but however it is, even if we do not get to see a good rebound at the end of the year, we still have next year to see things play out.

We have to understand one thing that the previous year was more of a bull year, and now that we are in a bear year, we should be expecting more of the opposite. I do not see any bad sign irrespective of how the market is fairing at the moment, I only see a great opportunity to buy in low.
620  Economy / Speculation / Re: Reason to stay in this bear market. on: July 11, 2018, 02:08:00 PM
my only reason to stay in the market is because I do not want to get a loss, so I'll keep holding and wait for the price to go up again and I'm sure someday the price will definitely go up again and I'll get a profit
Exactly your expectation is true because everyone expectation is profit so no one is sell this time. But some peoples are buying more Crypto this dip. It is also best way to earn more profit in future. Majority of the peoples are afraid in this bear market but few are still this believe the Crypto so I hope Many of them stay in forever.
Everyone should think like this and not those panicking. Look at the market now, after hitting the top its slowly dumping again but it doesn't mean it will not grow anymore. Patience really help hodlers to become more confident so better to have it or else your money will surely gone if you make any action during dump market.
What so many people do not understand is that if you are in a market, the best time to be buying is when the price will be low so you will not end up missing the discount so as not to end up buying at the top.

People panic unnecessarily because they made the first mistake of buying the peak and then forgetting that as long as a market is not moved by real demand and just some FOMO, the chances of a huge correction is imminent to shake off weak hands. Here is the result but a good result for those who are smart to buy the dip.
