6101  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If gambling is illegal in your country, would you still gamble? on: May 14, 2018, 04:03:11 PM
We can hide our habit with crypto. So, I will keep gambling even though it is forbidden to do. But for sure I will do it with very carefull so none able to notice it.

How do you think or will take care of yourself if county or regulators know that you being gambling inspite of a ban. So do you have any plans how will you handle that situation as you can even be in prison or the laws that state in your country. So better avoid it.
Yes, we must avoid gambling if gambling is banned in our country. Because there will be a two problems if we gamble on a illegal situation. First we need to face the bad consequence of gambling after that the legal consequences.

Instead of struggling twice, it must be better to avoid completely on the initial stage itself. Now a days, lots of options are available to bypass legal restrictions. Still I never recommend to go for them. We must obey our country regulations so that we can be responsible citizen. Being a responsible citizen will always lead to responsible family member which is the only reason we are here and being as a family member.
6102  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To quit gambling is to quit yourself on: May 14, 2018, 01:32:42 PM
When you greed for making more and more money you will gamble continuously and the result will be not in your favor. There is no handling in losing. you will be upset and your mind will be empty when you lose more and more money. There will be no chance for winning is such situations. It is better to quit gambling as soon as possible.
You are talking about making money with gambling but you never think about how difficult to quit gambling. Yes, quitting gambling is more difficult than making money with gambling for most of the addicted gamblers.

Instead of finding strategies for making money with gambling, most gamblers are finding it is easier to continue their gambling as finding solutions and methods for stopping it is not at all in favor of them or they never need them heartfully.

They need some extraordinary things to stop their gambling completely. Extraordinary in the sense, a new activity which will be enforcing them to completely forget about gambling. Practically there will be no such thing for most of the gamblers, that is the reason they are still in to gambling.
6103  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Shyness in gambling on: May 14, 2018, 12:18:35 PM
if casino crowd is there real problem or being watched out, internet is the answer. Gambling sites have been created for such reasons.
Online gambling sites are here for many purposes at the same time we must need to understand the dangers of using online gambling sites. If you are feeling shy while gambling in front of more people then you will avoid gambling over time. This will reduce the chances of bad consequences of gambling. When you are gambling within your home and at any time you prefer, you will get addicted to gambling more quickly.

I mean to say feeling shy in casino must be a good thing and we should not find a solution for it. We must enjoy being a hero by watching out but thousands of people and it will help to get rid of our gambling thrust.
6104  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: thinking quiting after lose on gambling. on: May 14, 2018, 11:45:35 AM
Taking some break playing with gambling is also good, or maybe make a time or date or what day should you just need to play gambling to lessen our losing stake. It is really hard to make a plan when playing gambling because most of the time, we play gambling on the spot without any plan but if we know our daily needs, for sure even if while you are playing you will already control your game.
Yes, we must stop our gambling activities time to time so that we can plan up how to manage the budget for gambling more effectively. Only the gamblers who are continuously gambling will not plan up how much to spend for gambling and how much to save for future. When they are into gambling rush-up, they do spend their saving for gambling activities. It could be avoided when they are taking break after some losses.

To think and to plan up, we must need some break always. This break could be a permanent quit or a temporary break. It is all dependent on capabilities of a gambler to avoid gambling. Because, avoiding gambling permanently will not be possible for most of the gamblers at the very first attempt itself.
6105  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Effects of Gambling on: May 14, 2018, 11:14:32 AM
Sorry to say, but I don’t consider any gambler as a decent guy and my heartily apology for using such harsh words. If a person was really a decent one, he would never choose such an indecent activity for any reason. Gambling is not respected in any part of the world and why would it be? It is very difficult to appreciate a person who is wasting his precious time and money simultaneously. Nothing can be more ridiculous than this.
Gambling alone makes them indecent. In my opinion when a person is not conscious about his responsibilities then there will be nothing wrong in calling them indecency. The effects of gambling honestly worst than we can expect. Due to addictions people become totally forgetting about their basic responsibilities of their life. When a person is not useful for his family and for his society then how we can call them decent. Some addicted gamblers deserve not to call them as a human being itself. Because they do mind only gambling activities and nothing more.

6106  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Digital Currency Take Over on: May 14, 2018, 09:14:29 AM
From the way and speed with which people are embracing digital currency, it is only a matter of time some countries will start adopting it as means of exchange.
If we really want to be referring to speed, I must say it is not that much and at the same time it is not that bad. It has been few years anyway and from the look of things, we have been growing stronger and better than where we started from.

If we keep seeing things going on like this, obviously the future is bright for cryptocurrency but obviously not at the position of taking over banks or local currencies. Come on! It is the government we are dealing with here and all they just need is to use regulation and some policies to put cryptocurrencies in its place.
6107  Economy / Economics / Re: Will Crypto currencies make local currencies disappear? on: May 13, 2018, 04:05:00 PM
Competition between local currencies Vs crypto currencies are in peak now. Crypto currencies have occupied currency market causing local currencies enforce (banks) banning of crypto currencies. We can see number of investors have turned towards to bitcoin and other crypto currencies with large scale. Will there be a chance / time bitcoin and other crypto currencies rule over currency market and local currencies get disappear slowly in a decade or two?

     In my own opinion cryptocurrencies can't make local currencies disappear because they are different. Crypto is digital while local currency is tangible and it is use daily for buying,payments and everyday transactions. Another thing that it can't disappear local currency because local currency is centralized currency issued by the government while cryptocurrency is decentralized.
The centralization aspect alone is one thing that the governments if any country cannot easily just give up. Therefore, it is far beyond imagination to think cryptocurrency will ever take the place of local currencies.

Apart from that, globally, there are so many people and places where they find it hard to even blend with anything related to the internet or probably have low facilities when it comes to that, in that case, we should expect that this category of people will prefer to stick to what they have over the time gotten used to.
6108  Economy / Economics / Re: Portfolio on: May 13, 2018, 02:52:43 PM
There is no limitation on your portfolio, you can add as much assets you can. As a in the above quote it is upto you, you decide upon the amount you have to make a perfect portfolio. If you go through the portfolio of different users, almost everyone has got bitcoin and ethereum within it, apart from that based on the research they hold other assets.
Yeah, no limitation at all as you can decide to have as much as you want to have, based on your budget and based on how you perceive the market you want to hold. However, it is always good to normally cut them short to the best minimum possible based on what you can monitor as an investor. Thank God for the apps like blockfolio anyway that can easily help one to monitor what is being held for the long term, so at the end, the decision is for the individual in question to take.
6109  Other / Archival / Re: Ripple still Alive even their appeal gets denied from New York court on: May 12, 2018, 04:52:34 PM
Ripple is alive and still good position even a online news publish on 19 March 2018
A San Francisco court has denied Ripple’s request to appeal the order which denied its lawsuit against R3.
News was fake ?

Claim was that  Ripple had backed out of a previous agreement that allowed R3 to purchase up to 5 billion XRP coins at $0.0085 each before the end of 2019.


Check news link :
https://ibsintelligence.com/ibs-journal/ibs-news/new-york-court-to-have-final-decision-over-ripple-r3-dispute-after-ripples-appealing-gets-denied/


Ripple has huge community. It just cannot be dead like that. It is one of the coins which people believe (definitely not me) will moon because of its usefulness and purpose in the banking industry. So I guess, until there are so many believers, XRP will live just like bitcoin.
Let them keep believing in their moon, and I hope that one day they get to see that moon. Yes, some noobs may believe that they can get to see ripple give them some pretty good move to the moon in the later run but I really hope their hope will not end up getting dashed in the long run.

All the above, ripple to me does not look like a coin that is going to be surviving that much in the market and the only thing that is keeping it going now is just basically because it is centralized and when the devs are done with everyone, they could likely just dump on them pretty hard.
6110  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How do you trade? on: May 11, 2018, 06:17:30 PM
There are a lot of ways to trade, you should learn from those who go before or you can go to youtube to find out, many guides are clear. There are examples, so you will understand more easily through the words on this forum.
Trading is all about to learn and find a strategy that can work best for one. As much as some people may always find it hard even after reading and learning, some will be able to apply what they have learned, get dedicated to what they are doing and be able to do it well as time goes on. However, it is necessary to understand that there is no way you can ever do it without learning, and there is no way one can learn without dedication and the former category that I mentioned are those who always end up not dedicated.
6111  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What is your trading strategy? on: May 11, 2018, 05:36:17 PM
I prefer the common trading strategy of buying low and selling high. It is not that possible every time. We need to study the market and should make the trading strategies accordingly. In specific even when the market keeps on fluctuating which can be used for marginal trading.
Of course, everyone should be buying low and selling high but the problem with that alone is to know if you are really buying low and if you are really selling high which I believe so many people always find pretty hard as a decision to make. Some have actually bought higher and then ended up selling lower as a result of panic while trying to buy low and sell high without using indicators to confirm their decisions.

It is important to always have a strategy with the help of the indicators for analysis and then stick to it.
6112  Economy / Economics / Re: How does bitcoin become a currency? on: May 10, 2018, 07:44:09 PM
Bitcoin is a digital currency and it is used for online payments to selected merchants who accepts it. It works like our local currency but it has no physical form, it only works on the computer over the internet. We can purchase items from abroad by paying through bitcoin without passing through any third party for approval, it is a direct transactions to anyone and it is cheap and fast.
Yeah, but in as much as we all know that for sure, how many people today really make use of it as a currency. I know there are some who do, but I feel we have not really gotten much to that stage where we get to start seeing real life usage, but it something we are approaching gradually.

A lot of people have turned it to being an asset more than a currency and waiting for the day it would hit that huge amount and by then, I am sure we should have hit some level of mainstream adoption driven by currency usage demand, so we just have to wait for it, but for the time being, I do not see it as it becoming worthless.
6113  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Centralized coins on: May 10, 2018, 06:59:43 PM
Of course, centralized coins have a place to be, since not everywhere decentralization is necessary and convenient.
Well, they may have place to be in the market in the long run, but I do not see them having much space to occupy as most people will not really give much damn about them anyway. With the way things have been over the years and how centralization has only favored some certain caliber of people, I do not think those who understand that will want to invest in something that is being controlled by some devs. That is the idea that sucks pretty much. Most altcoins are still working as a corporate or individual's decision based coins.

For instance, dogecoin was turned as a inflated currency overtime just due to the reason of being centralized whereas its community still hating that.
6114  Economy / Economics / Re: Prices will some day fluctuate less? on: May 10, 2018, 06:00:49 PM
Do you think that someday the prices for Bitcoin will fluctuate less and ppl will be able to use more as a currency, and not only as a form of investment?

I think when the demand higher than supply, The matket price will rise. maybe in the future it will happen.
That is a normal economic principle and basically, the only thing that can cause that increase in demand right now is the usage as currency which it was mainly created for which we are totally forgetting except that everybody wants to get rich overnight which makes it easy for the whales to manipulate the market to their benefit.

In the sense where we have a real life usage, and adoption grows, this would bring in room for real demand and not the type we had been having and this is the only time we can see sustainable value, more demand, and less fluctuations to the lower side.
6115  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: When do you think Eth will break $2,000? on: May 10, 2018, 02:01:08 PM
When do you think Eth will break $2,000?
It will take a really long time and the market must cross a couple of trillion dollars to reach those valuation, there are many projects using ETH but it might dry out when the regulations come in, so it has its own risk to invest in it because it has its limitations. If it was a currency it would be great but sadly it is not.
It may not take a long time and it might. The fact here is that no one knows. Ethereum however has been looking quite bullish for some time now, so I would not be surprised if it actually has some pretty good stuff in store for the next few months or days. Nevertheless, this is a market, whether it would increase or whether it would end up decreasing is just one thing no one can know except to just wait for it and if it comes at the time it pleases, good and fine.
6116  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: SELL ALL YOUR FIAT AND LIVE 100% CRYPTO!!!! on: May 09, 2018, 06:22:00 PM
I am sure that such an act is very risky, but it has a chance of success. And in case of a positive result, your capital can grow tens of times.
Yeah, it is obviously a very risky thing to do and it takes a lot of balls for anyone to ever be able to do so, but I believe this guy is living very fine now as that would have been a risky thing worth it eventually based on when this story went round the net. However, in the real sense, it is basically an insane thing to do that could have ended up backfiring for him, so I would rather say he just got fortunate and anyone trying to copy him may not just be that fortunate.
6117  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambler's mindset! on: May 09, 2018, 05:43:53 AM
Ofcourse gamblers mindset will be a winner.Ofcourse he wish to win in every game.
No gamblers will think that he's playing because he wants to be a loser.Maybe if he is crazy,he want always to be a loser.
Yeah, no one likes losing anyway but even as much as we want to win in every game, it is normal to also have the mindset or I would rather say better to also have the mindset prepared for losing because this is what happens most of the time anyway and those who are prepared for it usually know how to limit themselves in certain loosing conditions rather than pushing their luck further by trying to recover their losses which I am sure it is a trap a lot of gamblers always fall into.
6118  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Why choose LONG-TERM TRADING? on: May 09, 2018, 04:27:28 AM
Actually long term trading/ holding is good for people who does not know how to trade.

Just like investing they can just sell it when they think the profit is enough.

Also with this strategy you do not need to worry about price dips/crash because history shows that Bitcoin/stable coins will rise in the future.
It is actually the best for those who really do not have much idea about trading, but it still requires you to always have some strategy even with the long term trading as well. At least, you should know some basic stuff like supports and resistance, know how to use some of the indicators for long term divergence and at least also know how to manage some risk and when to sell.

All these things require some knowledge but apparently not as much as what a professional trader would need.
6119  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Strong Hands Vs Weak Hands on: May 08, 2018, 07:07:54 PM
The world of crypto comprises of two classes of people, the WEAK HANDS and the STRONG HANDS.
-Early dumpers and those who dump at prices lower than the ICO price of any coin, are known as weak hands.
-While those who hold a coin(s) until prices increase to appreciable level are know as the strong hands.

This is a humble call to all investors, most especially bounty hunters. Let us endeavour to hold whatever token/coin we earn or better still if you want to dump early, do not dump at prices below the ICO price of any coin.
I really do not see the early dumpers of an ICO that gets listed on an exchange as weak hands, they are just some pathetic fools that do not know the worth of what they are holding and all they are looking for is the quick short term gains. It is how they have chosen to do their own investment anyway.

Also, the believers are different from the strong hands although, they can still be classified as that in a way. Weak hands are practically those who throw their position away at loss because of drop in price while strong hands are just who do not care and buy more at the dips. So in a way, I guess I can still relate with what you are saying somehow.
6120  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: 5 most common mistakes of Crypto Traders (and how to avoid them) on: May 08, 2018, 06:37:46 PM
I can add from myself that you should not play with borrowed money. How many cases have people borrowed from banks, and after a complete collapse at the crypto-exchange, they could not repay their debts. Trade only costs what you are willing to lose.
That would actually be one dumb thing to do anyway. Even your own money is not safe when trading as a crypto trader unless you have some great level of knowledge.

Nevertheless, rather than saying not playing with borrowed money, I would rather say, you can still go ahead with borrowed money as long as you know what you are doing. The only problem is to have borrowed money and you are trading with no knowledge at all. That is someone who is set for doom!
