But, how long this poker will continue now that the football is coming back? I know you guys really enjoyed it and it looks like if it stays permanent and be here all the time it doesn't look like it will get less and less attention, but it looks like some people may have gone back to just betting as well (even though there are new ones).

If this is going to be permanent I think there needs to be some overhaul on the design for a separate poker page on the website, this has been requested for a long time but I haven't seen any improvements so far, and not even an indication of it neither. Do you have any plans for it? Or is poker more like "something to spend time on until sports comes back" type of deal? If that is the case there is no need to really work on it too much.

No in that case you should divide your winnings and put it aside usually vault in some websites, or simply wherever you want, or keep it on bankroll but consider it not there. Because if you gamble with 10 bucks per week, and make it to 100 bucks, that is 10 weeks worth money right there, you wouldn't have to spend more money.

Now, of course do not stop gambling for 10 weeks because you only deposited 10 bucks and should play the week after, but at the same time you have missed out on putting 10 bucks there, and 90 bucks aside, so you could gamble for 9 more weeks after that for free basically. That is the difficult part here, you didn't deposit it, but you also won it, you shouldn't stop gambling because of it, but you shouldn't continue at that moment neither. Very difficult position to be in.

Sad truth is that there are people who don't even have any means of income now, not to talk of having savings to help them out when the time comes.

Those are the people I really pity at this time. And things now got worse because companies are relieving people from their duties so that they wouldn't have too much of expenses. It's really a sad thing, and how are those people who lose their jobs now going to survive since they don't have any other job? This is going to be a really difficult situation for a lot of people. And this is why it's being said that people should try to have two means of income, because you never know tomorrow.

EOS is a good coin. I once thought of investing my money in it, but changed my mind because I felt it’s unnecessary since I already invested in so many other coins. EOS was created to be a competitor to the Ethereum smart contract and they are aiming at solving the scalability of dApp projects. From analysis I have read online, the coins seems quite recommendable and the predictions were that it will growth is year and will continue to grow in the coming years, and Cointobuy.io has given it a 6.5 rating.

I like to suggest you that before you invest you should do proper research and then make your choice because even this community is known for suggesting from their own experience and analysis, there could be some paid shills who may talk for the coin where they are affiliated. So, doing your own due diligence will help.

Discipline is what most people lack when they are trading. It’s always difficult for them to control themselves and manage the little profits they have made. After they have made their first profit they will still like to go further and make more profit and most times it doesn’t work out for them, and they end up losing their money. It gets even worse when they decide to go further to recover their losses, instead of regaining their money back, they will end up losing even more money.

So, every trader needs to learn how to discipline themselves and avoid being greedy when they are trading. I believe I was also not discipline while trading until I make use of suggestions made my professional traders in our trading discussion board. There are lots of useful discussion are available there for any trader to make use of.

I think that question is unnecessary. Every project do bounty campaigns as a way to get investors, so investors should be the ones that values the project and not really the hunters. Hunters are mainly there for one purpose which is to promote the project and help get more Investors to invest their money in the project. So, after their work they expect to get paid and when they are paid with the tokens they sell it to get their payment for the work they did.

Investors are the ones who invest their money in the project because they believe in it that it’s going to grow from there. So, this question is unnecessary. But, different people are having different opinion hence we cannot need to do anything this type of questions other than simply moving-on.

Cryptocurrencies are the future, but the government are not agreeing with it for now. Earlier Facebook tried to create Libra, the government refused to let them do it, because they feared that Facebook is trying to take over finances and whatever excuses they have got.

Now, some of them are talking about creating Central Bank Digital Currencies, and that has been the main subject before this pandemic broke out. China seemed to very serious about their cryptocurrency and I saw news that it was almost ready and I even saw someone show the application that was created for cryptocurrency how it looks like. They might still be towards that by now.

Well, you’re right about that, but there is really nothing else that can be done in this situation. People still have to stay indoors to stop the spread of the virus and as well maintain social distancing when they are outside.

If it is not going to be that way, then they are going to keep on spreading the virus. Scientists are still working towards creating the cure for the virus and we are still not sure when the said vaccine will be ready. In my country the government tried to ease the lockdown and things got worse, they had no other option than to go back to lockdown again, especially in states where the cases are serious.

What made you think that the Coronavirus has nothing to do with cryptos? This is a pandemic and it has lots of ways that it can affect Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Although the cryptocurrency market has managed to recover recently, at first there was a panic and a lot of people were afraid that Bitcoin will fall, and not just Bitcoin, including the stock market. And things started to get worse when it got to the extent that there was a lockdown and so many companies were losing money to the extent they had sack their staffs.

People were losing their jobs, and cryptocurrency doesn’t seem like a good option for them at that moment. I’m happy that Bitcoin has been able to recover, and it’s likely to keep the growth steady.

I mean I was just giving my two cents but even I myself could check and find a bit different possibilities to it .

Like maybe you can start with 30 bitcoin, make it 50 bitcoin, and lose it all, which means you still lose your own 30 bitcoin, but you are also losing a potential 50 bitcoin withdrawal instead as well. It means I am both right and wrong, yes you only lose what you deposit and not more, but would you consider potential profits as loss as well when they are gone? That is a question to be asked and I am sure everyone would have a different answers.

And that is gambling's basics, that is why I never really deposit too much, from 10 bucks to 50 bucks and that's it, I rarely ever ever deposit anything more ever because if I do I would lose it and I know it, but if I deposit less, all I can lose is that amount and that's it.

It was always obvious that euro zone would have gone down eventually, there are some nations who are awesome at what they do (like Germany and UK) whereas there are always ones who suck at economy (mainly Greece but Spain a bit too) and you are putting them all on the same pot, how could that ever work?

I never believed in it but something this big of course would take decades before it can fall, it has been only 20 years and it is already cracking, UK wants to get out and already out in a way, there will be other nations who will realize that they are carrying the eurozone who will want to get out as well, who could say anything if Germany wants to get out, they are doing much better than other nations so they have to help other nations in order to not lose value on their money, they must be sick of it. Maybe not today, maybe not in 10 years, but eventually this group will disband.

I agree that there will be a recovery phase that will take a long time, I agree with that, but I do not believe in the notion that there is some people behind this. Nobody really gained anything from this, check the whole world, who is in profit right now? Who is doing better? Nobody is doing better, hence nobody did this.

Definitely it could be manmade who knows, but even if it was manmade, it wasn't to release and kill people, it was probably some science trial that went wrong and thats about it, I do not believe it was anything else. Recovery will of course happen, what are we expecting, everyone to die and no money left in the world and just ruled by animals with no humans? Of course there will be recovery, but the longer it takes the more people it affects.

Lol, I am surprised you're still asking whether to invest in Bitcoin at this time. Why wouldn't you invest in Bitcoin?
That is the best choice you have among the coins you have mentioned. And apart from the list, I don't know about the coins you have on your second list, I haven't even heard or seen them on any website before.

So, you should invest in Bitcoin first before talking about investing in any other cryptocurrency. If it's not Bitcoin, then it should be any of the top cryptocurrencies in the market, you can invest in Ethereum, Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ripple, and other top cryptocurrencies. Stop taking risks by investing in coins you are not 100% sure about.

Lol, seriously why would anyone be enjoying their failure, especially when it is trading that we are talking about here? Anyone who is trading and failing is losing money each time they fail, so why don't they take some time out to think over the reasons why they fail, instead of continuing with their failure and expecting that things get better?

You should first start with learning how to manage your risks, and then you will be able to cut short your risk and the amount of money that you're losing. Then apart from that you should learn the strategies that are required for trading. Although I do know that there are constant risks in trading and anyone can lose, it's good that you develop a good strategy that is more likely to get you the wins.

There are lots of good stable coins, but the truth that there will always be a complaint about most of them if not all. There are things you will use and not have problems, but others will make use of it and have problems. So, sometimes I don't really consider things like these, I just do my research on the coins and check out their features and other necessary things I'm meant to check. And once I confirm that they are really good, I start investing and making use of them and I don't have the time to be asking around.

Tether, and there are still people making use of it. Then as for PAX, I don't think your funds will automatically be freezed just for no reason, except there are some suspicious activities that you're into. If you stay clean, then you wouldn't have any problem. Your choice.

Hello Best_Change!

Good day!

I just noticed in sheet for the current week (tab name = Week 18), starting post count and BTC addy are somehow misplaced from the row number 50. My entry is at 52nd row and my correct starting post count is 690.

Kindly check and do the needful.

---

I request all other participants to check the sheet and notify here for any problems so that it would be easier for @Best_Change to do counts smoothly by avoiding last hour hassles.

Thanks for understanding.

I don't really have a particular website that I just wake up and head to whenever I want to read about cryptocurrency.
Although I do go to Cointelegraph and that's just to randomly check their weekly analysis and that will be more than enough for me to gain some quick awareness about what is going on right now.

Still when it comes to reading about cryptocurrency, I make use of the Google News app and cryptocurrency is set as one of my interests, so I get updates from every site that is talking about cryptocurrency. That's just how I do mine, although I do know about all these sites that you have mentioned here, but I don't go directly to them to read news.

The reason why there is a calculation based on the house edge is that there is really nothing else you can calculate or use the data from. House edge is the only thing we have to make an estimate on what should be the expected loss or win (well there is no win for the house edge except if you are the house).

So, when you are saying stuff like "30 bitcoin should lose 0.3, if you give them 0.2 there is an expected loss". Hence in the long run if you wager 30 bitcoin and win 30 bitcoin, that's unexpected, if you wager 30 bitcoin and lose 30 bitcoin that is unexpected as well. We can't calculate things with unexpected results, we can't calculate it like that is possibility, when you wager 30 bitcoin the worst is losing all of it, but the win has unlimited possibilities, which is why we drop it down to one thing we can calculate; house edge.

That is really sounding too awesome and I am sure you are going to make a big change as well, making like mintdice a lot better. But, when you update the website and there is no one that knows how it was before, and only know the new version that would be like people reacting "what is the big deal, yeah it is cool but that is it" because they wouldn't know the first version.

So, I guess it must be really helpful to get more people right now just before the update because people should see the previous versions before they could see the new one, they would love the new updates a lot more that way because they would know it went from what to now what, that way the update would worth something.

So now that the price is at $9.3k, what are you going to do, are you going to be selling your coins or have more patience? It is definitely up to you what you plan to do with it. But, my advice would be that you should have patience till the right time comes. The price will go up to that $15,000 for sure in short term, it's only if you can have that level of patience to wait till then.

Some of us here, like me, have been waiting for a really long time now. After I sold all my coins in 2017 during the bull run, I had to restart all over again to invest in 2018 and I'm still holding till now, and even bought more coins when this pandemic started. So relax and think about holding your bitcoins till end of 2021 as well.
