I have seen people here as well as on internet who suggest people to go in Bitcoin whatever they earn from their income sources like Job, Home
That's not recommended especially now that we experienced an all-time high followed by a big dip and those people who bought in the all-time high, sold their coins at a lost, people should think scenario that it could happen again.

So be sure where are you going in future and be realistic with your goals and just execute them. No one will have ever written on his grave that "He earned more than the market average.
Best to proceed is to read a lot and listen to all sides not only the shillers and the FUDSTERs, there are some truth on what they say and some are not.

Read the full article on the challenges and possible solution to living on Bitcoin daily here: www.forrestvisions.com/blog/living-on-bitcoin

Excerpts from the article 
Quote
Many companies have taken a defiant stance against Bitcoin because of these price fluctuations.
This is the main reason why merchants are having a second thought, and those who do are doing this because of they supporters or doing experiments, but if I am a merchant I will readily accept payment, I will just set up or create a safety net, so even if Bitcoin drops or increase my company is still safe. 
6123  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Addiction at its Worst! on: November 14, 2019, 01:41:31 PM
I was reading the news this morning and one of the headlines was about a terrible stealing incident involving an alleged gambling addict. The man is an employee of R&L Investments, one of the Philippines' oldest stock brokerage firms. He was able to orchestrate a way to suck at least ₱700-million worth of stocks from the company to support his gambling addiction. This is around 14 million USD, huge enough for the company to decide its closure after 5 decades of operation.[1]

The guy just lost his mind this is an example a chronic gambler went berserk or crazy, he will have to spend the rest of his life in jail with the huger amount or worse people will just liquidate him, because this is company money and there are a lot of shareholders on it, the problem on this one is they delegate everything to one person, they should break it down to several people to avoid this scenario this is a bad business decision that should be avoided.

6124  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: 55.com Exchange | Weird Thing | Why? | Does anyone vouch for this exchange? on: November 14, 2019, 12:53:15 PM
I wanted to sale one of the shitcoin which is listed in 55.com; I have known about this exchange just now from CMC.
I signed up and they sent a verification mail where I needed to click "Verify Email" and it forwarded me to the site again (I know you guys know this is common procedure; LOL) but the domain is different this time, it's 55com.io


I registered with this domain.
Code:
https://www.55.com/home

The verification mail I received from the same domain as above.
Code:
no-reply@post.55.com

I have been forwarded to this domain after email verification.
Code:
55com.io/home

Do you guys think it's normal or you guys are thinking the same as me? Any positive or negative reviews?

And the token which I wanted to sale has a price of 55 sats in 55.com whereas Coinbene has 20 sats only...

I don't know the purpose why they should use other domain for verification when they can easily create a subdomain from their main domain, it is questionable, they should address this issue, in case of a hack they can disown that domain, especially since this is an exchange where people are very careful and particular on the name of the domain, this is a bad practice, and they should have a reasonable explanation, for me it's risky, if they have a telegram channel you should ask it.

Hello and what's up fellow users/gamblers!
I hope you had a great weekend!
Another week has come, so let's start all over again.

what if you suddenly see a fellow gambler that has been winning continuously (example Poker)  and it seems like he's unbeatable on that game, would you care to join him so you could also be winning? Or would you like to beat the guy on his game?

We certainly can't deny the fact that we gamblers can be easily influenced by these kind of scenarios.



I'm not good at Poker but I would love to beat him if I could, Poker is a game of luck and skills, there are people who are good at having a lucky game, by playing against him I can get some pointers and if by chance I able to beat I will be proud of myself and people will think I'm very good at Poker, because I bet a guy who has a lot of win to his credit.

So after reading all our replies here OP, are you okay now?
Please never ever think of committing a suicide because you loss money because that's a complete stupidity, believe in yourself and seek help from people that you love and care for you, they will surely gonna help you with your problem.

you are not the only one who has problems in gambling due to addiction, there are a lot of people suffered.


you can check the story here - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5200442.msg53045052#msg53045052,... that guy steal and loss 14 million usd, your problem is just too small compared to his.

People differ in how they take depression, he is not good at taking this kind of depression, when in fact it can be solved, these loan applications are actually illegal they charging a very high interest ten times on what the banks are offering and they are harassing people who cannot pay their loan, maybe this is one of the reasons why he is depressed, he cannot take harassment.
6127  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: P4ay.com Any reviews or comments about this site? on: November 13, 2019, 05:29:04 PM
Hello,

I found a website named P4ay.com that buys your bitcoins with paypal. I checked its reputation on scamadviser.com and it is good. Has anyone used or heard something about this site?

Thank you

Don't rely on one website on the site's reputation, use common sense, we all know that Paypal has a chargeback if you are dealing on a website that deals with it, your account will be in trouble, if you are a Paypal holder you will be limited and they can get their money back, they could be trustworthy in a small amount, but different if the amount is big, so better not to do it all.
6128  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: What services are Bitcoin in need of? on: November 13, 2019, 04:55:32 PM
Bitcoin has progressed into a thriving currency and has touched almost every industry in some way or another but what services would you like to see accepting Bitcoin? This thread has two reasons for being made first to see what services the Bitcoin users are looking for but also to expose certain services which already exist but the majority of people are not aware of.

Two of the service that I want to see where Bitcoin is being used or adopted, is a marketplace like Alibaba or Amazon and a freelance site like Fiverr if we can have these two things, Bitcoin will finally arrive and will be used by many people, in fact, it can run to millions of Crypto holders using these two websites, there;s been so many attempts in the past, we need big people that can do this for us, since we already have the community to support.
6129  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin is Preparing For the Bull Run After the 4% Surge on: November 13, 2019, 03:15:03 PM
Bitcoin has effectively figured out how to hold a large portion of its obtained additions when the day's exchanging began, be that as it may, Bears came into difficulty with the increase when Bitcoin plunged down to the $8571.50 mark subsequent to breaking the help at $9000.This run initiated long liquidations to the whole of $31 Million. This invited back unpredictability of Bitcoin which was accused as the reason for the loss of about $89.06 Million for the merchants during this unexpected swing.

News Source: TheCoinRepublic


It's like an ongoing cycle people are analyzing every movement of the market and very quick to speculate I don't see big movement of the price and even if the price is moving up, it will go down again within days, the only positive sign I am seeing in the market, is the volatility is going down, people are not very worried when the price is down, because it will eventually go up, and if the price goes up, people are not very sure that it will stay that way.
6130  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: HYIP monitor on: November 12, 2019, 10:58:58 PM
We have created the HYIP monitoring in order to ensure that our users have access to a list of current and paying projects. We also want you to have an opportunity to manage your investments on the Internet as efficiently as possible.


All I know is, these Monitors are also front of HYIP they are monitoring HYIP that they are monitoring, when in fact they are just a marketing arm of these HYIP's, they are not independent and they will not address issues when HYIP stops paying their investors, we don't need monitors here in Cryptocurrency, all HYIP are considered scam and have no place here in our community.

https://twitter.com/bitcoinsights

What do you think?
Leave your valuable thoughts Smiley

With the limited number of character you are posting, it's better to first create a blog, from your own or from blogging sharing platform, twitter is just a tool to share the main article site or social media channels, you need to first establish your platform before you use Twitter to promote your own articles and news, if you are just going to share popular articles, chances are you will not get followers, because people wants to get straight from the horse's mouth.
6132  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin $400,000 (?) on: November 12, 2019, 03:50:21 PM
*me grabs popcorn and waits for $400k BTC*
The author did not mention any year could be in the next five years or ten years or twenty, that's a lot of popcorn for you, but I'm quite impressed with his analysis, he has a good theory to back it of, but he still playing safe by not mentioning a specific years compared to other experts who have a specific year attached on their prediction, but I prefer to take it one step at a time, 10k, then 15, then 20k, safer and realistic this way. 
6133  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Permission to Use Bitcoin Logo on: November 12, 2019, 01:54:22 PM
I’ve tweeted @bitcoin for permission to use their bitcoin logo on a t-shirt. Waiting on a reply. If perhaps it was missed or something. Is there any other way to request permission from bitcoin.org?

There's a thread here that it is in Creative Commons 
The Bitcoin logo is part of the public domain and can be freely used and altered for commercial and non-commercial purposes:
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Bitcoin_logo.svg

There is no need to ask permission to print Bitcoin Logo, but if you are going to use a modified version that was copyrighted then you have to ask permission from the creator of that design, so many companies and individuals have used and are now using the official logo
6134  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: China Looking to Spend $2 Billion on Blockchain by 2023 on: November 12, 2019, 11:43:25 AM
I’m still keen to know how would China oversee anything and how would they be able to facilitate and use the $2B investment on the said aspect of technology.
It's a huge amount for a country to spend that amount on a new technology that they use to ban, with that amount they will have in command on everything related to their project, they can do massive marketing employ the best people and even pirate people from the other projects, we are only thinking of it's potential when it finally launches, we will see it's greater impact in the market and global as well. 
6135  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What Will You Do To Recover Bitcoin? on: November 12, 2019, 10:08:43 AM
In 2010, you came across a site that was giving away bitcoins. The site said it was free money so you signed up. You were logging in to figure out how it was money but couldn't. The last time you logged in you had more than 100 bitcoins. Later you forgot about the site until 2017 when a ponzi was advertising Bitcoin. Bitcoin? The name rang a bell and you stated hearing stories. You remembered you must have many bitcoins  somewhere but you can't even remember the name of the site. How would you recover your BTC?

If you registered on any site you will have to confirm the email that you registered to those sites, so all you have to do it to do research on all the sites that you verified, hopefully you are not the kind that deletes messages, this will be tedious and it will take weeks, but we are talking of hundreds or more Bitcoin, so you will need to be patient on this, I have done this when I was very active on faucets.
6136  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you think that cryptos such as Bitcoin would be mainstream? on: November 11, 2019, 02:53:32 PM
I was just wondering if one day it would be possible for cryptos such as Bitcoin (BTC) OR Ethereum (ETC) to become mainstream one day for people to use for day to day transactions on a daily basis. Because I heard that the people in Zimbabwe with their economic difficulties use cryptocurrencies as a means of trade.

Would the world adopt cryptocurrency as a means of transaction, what do you guys think?

It's possible, here in our country, our local exchange are now accepting Ethereum, Ripple and Bitcoin cash to pay insurance bills and do travel bookings and not only in our country, there are a lot of countries who are doing the same, for Cryptocurrency to move forward, it should not be only about Bitcoin, at least 7 or more Cryptocurrency should be adopted and they are all going to be mainstream and Bitcoin is leading the way.
6137  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC Halving Effect??? on: November 11, 2019, 02:32:10 PM
Bitcoin will not end up just like Litecoin did even if I am speculating the supply will surely lessen after the Halving that is why I believe the price will rise and many enthusiasts are expecting the price of Bitcoin to pump after the Halving that is why even if the Halving will be a negative the price will surely have a small pump at price because there will be more buying it because they are suspecting the Halving to increase its price.

So far all the past halving proves us right until now that there are a lot of things to expect from the coming halving like the price increase, there are still no halving in the history that Bitcoin's price drop after the halving or it does not have an impact, we must not compare this to Litecoin, each coin has a different supporters, development and so far Bitcoin never fails it's investors, comparing it to Litecoin after halving effect is like creating FUDS.
6138  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Bull Run is coming! on: November 11, 2019, 01:49:27 PM
I don't think any bull run in the near future would be triggered by news. Everything is about support and resistance at the moment as far as I can see. We have have multiple tests downwards. We haven't really had a test upwards yet. All of the tests down against the support have held, more or less, or broken and then recovered quickly. The question for me is when we will have a test upwards. I think it's just that, nothing to do with news.

Bullrun can starts in any moment when no one will expect this. But this will come with news and new hype (as like as this were in previous bullruns)

I agree with you more than the guy you quoted, people always speculate even on the obvious, people always buy the news when it's all about profit and bull run, all the past months, all we can read and hear and see are news on the bull run, they have reason to do that because of the news that is coming, China creating their coin, Facebook's  coin launching and of course the coming bull run, and we all love all of these.
6139  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Is there something you can do if someone scams you? on: November 11, 2019, 12:47:11 PM
How did you communicate with him, you might be able to work out where he is from that info.

You can't charge back a btc transaction and if they aren't kycd then theres probably no way to trace them from there...

i have talked with him thrue a forum and telegram.

1.5 Bitcoin and you did not ask for a vouch if the guy is trusted? what's he's rank and his username here, why are you not posting it here including a screenshot of your conversation, you should know in the first place that there is no chargeback why did you not get an escrow service in the first place, since you are dealing with a big amount, sorry to say it's your mistake for not taking the necessary precautions.
6140  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Price Prediction 2020 – What to Expect? on: November 11, 2019, 11:55:08 AM
Do you currently hold Bitcoin and are wondering what’s going to happen with its price in the near future, what is the Bitcoin price prediction 2020? Or have you heard about it and would like to know whether it’s a good investment or not over the long term? Well, if your answer is yes to either of these questions then you’ve come to the right place!.......

Source: https://www.bitdegree.org/tutorials/bitcoin-price-prediction-2020/

You copy pasted all of the articles here an excerpt and an article is much better, every time there is a halving coming people of course these so-called experts  are in a hurry to make a prediction, each one of them giving an outrageous amount, of course, the most prominent of these is Mcafee, as a Bitcoin holder myself I also like Bitcoin hype, but not to the point that they are going to hype it very high without any basis why it will go that high, I prefer to be modest and accept the reality, instead of these predictions.
