6281  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Giving up gambling is not easy on: September 29, 2017, 02:04:37 PM

I became an addicted gambler and with my experience it's really a hard thing to quit gambling. You are going to fight against yourself even your body doesn't want to gamble anymore, your mind will tell you to gamble and it's just fine because you can quit on the next days to come. And when that happens, you will still do it again and the cycle will be repeating.

The same thing happened to me as well. I cant quit and I keep on coming back. For some people like us it is hard to quit gambling because it might affect ourselves. It is better to keep playing but with small amount so that we wont really risk alot of money even if we need to keep on playing. It is the best thing for us that cant stop playing


the first mistake occurs when we first play gambling. for example is when we consider gambling as an income then we will very easy to get addicted. but if we only consider gambling as an entertainment then I am sure this will be solved easily. so it all starts from the initial goal that we believe.
that mindset, the way i see it, only serves to further one's attachment to gambling and eventually converts them to addicts. personally, i think it's more important to set limits for yourself going into something like gambling, and adhere to those limits you set for yourself strictly. i think people take way too lax of an attitude with gambling, which i can't understand. you're playing with your money, and i think that fact alone dictates you need to take a more serious attitude regardless of the amount involved.

It's easy tho. If you're a religious person and believe gambling is a sin you must stay away and never come back to gamble world again as you might get addicted again if you touch gambling. However, it's really hard for those who have missed much money from gamble to quit probably they will play again to recover the losses which is a wrong idea to do.
If you are a religious person for sure you will not be addicted in gambling in the first place. Let's assume that this people who have problem in gambling are victims of themselves. They are desperate to make more money so they might think gambling is the only way to solve the problem but they failed in the end, when the problem is money and you spend money to solve it but you failed, I guess that would result to a bigger problem.

People who have this kind of serious problem needs help and quitting is not easy without the help of people who truly care for them.
Indeed correct! A religious person will never get attracted by gambling, therefore never trying it at the first place. For those people who are weak from inside, it is easy to indulge in gambling. For such people, gambling is a solution to all their financial problems but they end up the other way.
I still don't understand why religion has to do with everything else? I myself not a religious person but I never got addicted in gamblings, its just I don't like the feeling when I lose something that I work in just playing bets.


Why did anyone even discuss religion here? It all depends on the person if he will be addicted or not. A person that is religious can well be addicted to gambling and religion will not help. A atheist can also avoid gambling without problems as well. So why are we even discussing religion as a factor for getting addicted?
the religious zealots like to inject their beliefs into any and all conversations and topics to make their beliefs relevant to themselves, just ignore it.
I also favor your stance in this discussion that gambling addiction has nothing to do with the religion of the gambler. It depends entirely upon the nature of a person and his or her own will that whether he wants to continue with the habit or finds it better to quit according to the situation.

If someone gambles just for the sake of fun and has no greed of money at all, then how could one state it as a sin with reference to the teachings of his holy book. In short, if a person is involved in some sort of activity, it is his personal decision and is never influenced by his religious identity.
6282  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Low Trade Volume on: September 29, 2017, 10:34:00 AM
It happens that there are altcoins out there with low trade volume but when theres a lot of interest in that coin, volume is relatively high. If you are a day trader, better look for coins that have higher volume like 500 and up, but if you plan to hold for a long time, dont mind the volume and focus more on the development of that coin.
I will definitely agree to what all you have said. I think low volume trade is neither profitable for short term investment nor for long term investment.

You need to invest your money at that place where there are good chances of having a good money. Low volume trade itself means that only few people are investing and trading in it.
6283  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do we own two bitcoins? on: September 29, 2017, 10:03:15 AM
To you guys who have owned Bitcoin for a while.

As long as you did not have your BitCoin on a bitcoin-stockexchange, during the split, you now have both BitCoin cash and Bitcoin core, right? 

As long as you created your address on BitAddress, and then memorized the address in your head, on a paper or in cold storage, you now have both types of BitCoin, right? 

Is there some other scenario in which you now only have one BitCoin, except for those who had their BitCoin on an exchange during the split?

If you have two BitCoins, how do you go about selling your BitCoins now? And how do you know if you are selling Bitcoin Core or Bitcoin Cash? 


That has been the came question that has been going through my head for a while now, I have been wondering if we own two bitcoins, articles have been springing up from different sources on the web all telling about a new bitcoin cash
I think it is personal. Why would somebody tell you about his holding, that h you many bitcoin he has in his bitcoin wallet. It is I think just like that I asked from someone whom I don’t know that how much money you have in your bank account.

So I think this is irrelative question. I am holding more than one. What you think about this? Is this enough for my future, or I should buy more bitcoin.
6284  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Future of Blockchain? on: September 29, 2017, 07:19:21 AM
What do you think is future of Blockchain technology? Where do you see this in next 8-10 years?
I think as the future is of a digital currency like bitcoin, and for holding them in some specific account you will have to touch in with blockchain, because this is the way where you can generate an account I mean a bitcoin wallet.

It is just like a bank where you open your account to keep your money in that and withdraw any time when needed. The same is here with blockchain.
6285  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What to do when prices are falling on: September 27, 2017, 06:20:52 AM
just check some trade group and see people say about that then if they say hold we sell. they say sell we hold  Grin
I believe that you should act upon the advice of the experts. There are very less chances that their predictions result in loss. I must suggest you to remain cool and calm at the time when prices are falling down. Holding the Bitcoin at that time is most preferable thing to do instead of just getting panic and selling them at lower rates.
What you say is true. Panic sell will only bring a trader to a loss. I experienced it several times. Better to back up losses than to panic sell.
Some of expert prediction are true but im not saying just do what ever they says sometimes its better to save if your bitcoins are came from your profit better to save then unless you don't buy them into market because once you do that and then you wait for the price increase then sell and wait for the price to become decrease i experience this kind about bitcoin pricing and this is kinda normal for it. No need to panic just wait and see its best.
When the prices are falling we need to be a little patient and look for the bright side of it. As we have seen bitcoin is all about profit and i won’t let us down. We just need to concentrate on our job and wait for the right time to come. Patience matters a lot in such conditions.
6286  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How do you Panic? on: September 27, 2017, 05:17:04 AM
There are some differences between business aircraft and bitcoin business, daily traders must know about this. Trading is a gambling game in my opinion, whether you make a profit or lose money. But in the bitcoin environment, there is no damage after I invest in it because the value of bitcoin continues to increase over time. All I have to do is find the dip to buy and keep it lasting.

Everyone panics at different scenarios, some may panic on downfall of the prices of their investments, some panic when they had hard times in family or any other office issues. I usually don’t get panic as soon like others because I know how to control my emotions so that my decisions are not affected while trading at the time of crisis.
Yeah, I think the present is a time of crisis, people are very scared when they look at the price of bitcoin, some people have made the wrong decision and sell all their bitcoin at low prices, they will soon regret, in the past, I was also a victim in this situation. However, at present I know emotional control and I have a lot of experience, knowledge, that made me feel very calm, even I was not too concerned about the price of bitcoin fell, and I always say to myself, if afraid, turn off the computer and go to bed, it is quite effective
I guess i panic when i don’t see the rise of bitcoins and i don’t get the desired results seeing the value of bitcoin dropping. But i try to keep myself calm in such conditions and try to think of the positive things. Because eventually it is going to benefit us in the future. So stay calm guys.
6287  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: China will completely ban bitcoin on: September 26, 2017, 04:09:36 PM
No, it will not happen in the future. though Bitcoin is being accepted in some developed countries so that China has taken it seriously in terms of regulating. when they have an intention to regulate so that they will allow Bitcoin as a legal currency. The Chinese government is surely known that a lot of Chinese people is involved in this platform. so they should not ban this platform.
Yes I agree to you 100 percent. In this day if we observe China holds almost all the sectors of productions in the world and they generate revenue from the entire world. The issue is not about the banning of investment and trading in bitcoin, the issue is about the regulation.

The legalization and regularization of bitcoin in China will be better for them because the payments will be easy while sending the items toother part of the world.
6288  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin starts to rise on: September 26, 2017, 03:39:26 PM
Yes Bitcoin starts to rise again now 1btc = 3,589.

The bitcoin is price is unstable right now, up and down easily around $3,589. I think this month will be the worst month for bitcoin in 2017. We still can't predict though, is the price will increase or not. At least we need to back to the normal price $4,000, for me the price is still now right now. What i'm sure is next month the price will increase again.
Today on 17-09-2017 the price is more than 3500. It is about 4000 dollars and will raise day by day. Some decisions from some countries like China and some statements block the way upwards for bitcoin, but that was just a matter of time.

The fall in bitcoin piece was just for the time being. Now the belief and faith of the people are building again and so the price because of the demand and investments.
6289  Economy / Economics / Re: If you have a lot of bitcoin, should you spend it or save it? on: September 26, 2017, 02:56:53 PM
When you need it spend it, if not just save it to earn more and achieve more bitcoin.
Good thinking, if someone need hardly, so spend bitcoin according to his need but not totally because it should be saved for future. I think bitcoin should not be spent till it not mined totally because I am expecting the high value of that time bitcoin.

In this regard we should have to wait for right time to sale out with glorious benefit. I will wait till, when increase in the value of bitcoin not stopped.
6290  Other / Off-topic / Re: Young people should go all in on bitcoin on: September 26, 2017, 02:18:12 PM
They somehow need to focus more on their studies, they have different responsibilities than investing on bitcoin and making money. Holding bitcoin is okay because you don't need greater knowledge on the flow of money unlike investing where you need to put time and needed some experience to win a profit.
Focus on study is more important for young students but it may not be ignored that they should go to participate in bitcoin business or somehow to earn for their pocket money, because young generation is very much touch with computer and internet technology.

I agree that totally focus on study is important but a little bit touch with bitcoin is not as harmful as we assume.
6291  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is it too late to buy bitcoin? on: September 26, 2017, 01:32:43 PM
After a couple of months all understand that now is a good time to buy BTC
Its totally a good time to but bitcoins right now since bitcoins was dump hard again and maybe it is the last time that we can see this price  again. Its not too late for new people to invest and its a good lesson for the ones who will sell in panic.
Good comments, they will understand when they would not be able to buy bitcoin due to high rate in the market.

I was assumed that people would gladly buy bitcoin now because it is a normal price now to buy, I don’t understand the logic that people are waiting for what, although they see that price is going high day by day. I would like to give a suggestion to my friends to buy it now for safe future because it is not much late.
6292  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin will control the world economy!!!!! is it true? on: September 25, 2017, 09:17:41 AM
In my opinion bitcoin will not be a weapon in the future because many countries do not legalize this virtual currency for security reasons, perhaps if the meaning of weapons in the criminal world is probably yes because many unlawful acts can be done with bitcoin.
Of course it can control the world’s economy because it is the most expensive crypto currency of the world which has capability to grow exponentially. Bitcoins will be the global currency of the world soon which will discard the paper money from the world. People will start using bitcoins as a currency for their daily life matters.
6293  Economy / Economics / Re: Why Is Bitcoin's Value So Volatile? on: September 25, 2017, 08:39:31 AM
Why Is Bitcoin's Value So Volatile? I am confused to buy bitcoin now when it's value is too high.


Bitcoin value so volatile because of the many bitcoin user thaat's why bitcoin is out of control to spared of all people who are interested to join  and to seek job.
In fact it is the nature of every crypto currency to be volatile because of continuous trading and investments from all over the world. Although bitcoin too have a volatile nature but it has capability to retain its worth in the market, one day it will be out reach of those who have never invested in bitcoins.
6294  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: too long time to wait on: September 25, 2017, 07:38:07 AM
Bitcoin network is frustrating most times, and the transaction fee is relatively high. If I want to send money between exchanges cheap and fast, I use either dogecoin or ether, even ripples.

so btc really have some problems with the transfer time.

If you are not rushing into something ahead just ignore the transfer time since blocks are so traffic and confirmation with that thing will be delayed for some matters, And if this one will came up unto you well the best thing you can do is to wait or do some things that can make you busy so that you will not angry for the delays of some transactions ahead.
Yeah it is too long time to wait for your exchanges for bitcoins. People often get tired of this lengthy procedure while exchanging their bitcoins for altcoins or local currency. One should be patient while exchanging his/her bitcoins. It will take some time to complete the account verification and exchange process.
6295  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin will rise up or fall down? on: September 23, 2017, 06:47:02 AM
What do you think? China banned BTC? And btc price goes to 4,069$ today Smiley
You think to sell or it can rise up again, some rumors said that btc will fall down to 2000$

Well those are only rumors I think it is normal for Bitcoin to Flactuate because there are lots of investors selling and i think it would not go down so hard i hope not. If the bitcoin drops well it is advantage for us to be able to buy low hold and sell high I will look forward to that.
Yeah I agree to you that situation of the bitcoin today is because of the fluctuation. Many investors are selling their bitcoins today and it seems that supply of bitcoin is now high and the result is like what happening today.
It is the beauty of business that there will be profit as well as losses so we should not get frightened from it and continue our investment in bit coin. Some time you hold bit coin while in some circumstances you will sell it like the present condition of the market.
6296  Other / Off-topic / Re: Job Vs Bitcoin on: September 23, 2017, 06:13:46 AM
I Suggest To stay on both side,
It is Good to Have a job while Earning on bitcoin too.
Maybe Some bitcoiners have already quit On there Job Because They Have The Knowledge And Money To Invest And Get Rich.

Yes there are several questions of mind which need answer like
Future of bit coin?
Prices stability of bit coin?
Legalization of bit coin as registered crypto currency? 
So I think we should priorities it as our second important source of income after our regular job.
6297  Economy / Economics / Re: If Bitcoin goes up very high should i buy a house? on: September 23, 2017, 05:20:47 AM
If Bitcoin goes up very high should i buy a house?

Ive been thinking if it went into very high figures i could cash out 80-90% of bitcoin and buy a house outright with no mortgage.  Is that even a good idea though? - basically 80% of networth in a house hmmm.  On the other hand i dont want to have a mortgage and im fed up with renting due to landlords, letting agents and lack of control.

Hows that house? Smiley
It depends on the rate and the value of the bitcoin in your country if it is high and you will use it then you can buy a house. The price of the bitcoin is not same everywhere at some areas you can buy a house with one bitcoin only but at some places you can’t buy even with more than 20 bitcoin so it depends on the price and the value of the bitcoin at that are where you want to buy house.
Yes definitely it is a good idea and wise thinking. Selling all the bitcoin also not good but as you told that you will sell 80 to 90 percent of your bitcoin, then there is no problem if it solves your problem of your own house without mortgage.

But for the higher price you will have to wait for some time. The predictors say that bitcoin will reach to the price of 1000 US dollars till the end of this year.
6298  Economy / Economics / Re: Should I stop Buying BTC? on: September 22, 2017, 06:51:07 AM
Should I stop buying BTC for above market value or should I start paying the listed price? I support Bitcoin and still pay 5k a BTC does anyone see bitcoin going back up?

Why ? It's a good time to buy bitcoins actually, the price of bitcoin is fall because of that news from china. If i were you i will buy many bitcoins with all my money when the price falling and wait until the price increase, sell it and get a profit. I'm sure the price will back to $4,000+ next week.
I will utterly agree with you in the regard that it is the best time to buy bitcoins when they are going through dumping phase. It is perfect time to book your ticket for the next epic ride of bitcoins to moon. No need to waste money when you have such an amazing opportunity of getting it doubled soon.
6299  Other / Off-topic / Re: Young people should go all in on bitcoin on: September 22, 2017, 06:03:03 AM
Yes its true young people must adopt the new technology like crypt o currencies specially bitcoin because this is their future if young people start to invest now in bitcoin they will probably have a brighter future and at the young age they can be financially stable.
Indeed! We all are aware of this fact that crypto currencies especially bitcoins are soon going to rule the world and it is the best time to garb bitcoins when they are not too much expensive or when not so many people are aware of bitcoins.

Young people have always deep interest in technology and digital creations; they should take deep interest into bitcoins.
6300  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to quit Gambling for good? on: September 21, 2017, 09:59:37 AM
How does one Put down Gambling for good?

Just need to find another fascinating occupation because of which there simply will not be time and desire to play gambling again. I went into the analysis in the trade and I lost time for the game.

It takes more than that. If it is just so easy, there wont be a need to setup counselling center for gambling addicts. There wont be so much social resources to help these people. Family support, social supports, friends support are very important and it cannot be done without any of those for those serious addiction.
gambling does have a very difficult thing to eliminate when we have been addicted. maybe only a few percent of people who can leave bitcoin well and easily. the rest are those who will continue to play gambling until they lose the money they have. when conscious then they will think that gambling is not a way to earn income, gambling is basically a pleasure that can not be separated from our nature respond to gambling as an entertainment.

I agree, since our mind are already tied to gambling and the brain always urge us to gamble when we are addicted.  This is what we called gambling taking over our lives, trying to recover the control would not be easy but as long as we are deterimined and dedicated to end the rule of gambling in our lives we can do it.  Besides, once we decide to quit and serious about it, i think we can escape from the grasp of gambling obsession/addiction.
That is so true. It sounds easy to give up on a habit but the reality is exact opposite. It is like; most of us cannot live without using cell phone for a day. We will keep on thinking about texting and internet whole day.

Gambler's state of mind is none different from us. It is just we are addict to different activities but the behavior remains same.
