Even the theory side is not enough to beat the house edge which takes juice from bankroll over the long term. There are alternative trading strategies that can beat the odds of "being lucky" in gambling but the traders have the right mindset to beat the negativity, unlike gamblers. Lucky gamblers are the winners, the rest will lose it is just a matter of time.

On paper I have beaten the odds several times, applying this logic in practice is the hardest part of the story. So I always understand the role of luck and never bet more than I can afford to lose. Controlling the bankroll is not equal to controlling your long-term gambling budget if we look from an economical perspective. Not everyone thinks about this side, unfortunately. Just bet and run...

From my experience, the legalization and tax problems force the casino owners to go underground and they continue to operate until something stops their activity. The third world countries are more famous regarding the case and governments advocate the reasons behind degenerating gambling mindset. If there were a mindset and psychological controls for entrance in casinos, I doubt someone will let their relatives go underground casinos if you know what I mean.

There is no doubt to worry about altcoins, that is why as you above mentioned altcoin season will coom soon and they will start to rise up. Maybe we must be more patient and wait for this time. If BTC starts to increase, altcoins will also follow it and maybe it will be worthwhile to collect some altcoins, which are so valuable, l mean top altcoins, in my view they are most profitable.

Depending on the personal preference, the gamblers can take one of the mentioned choices or both. Online casinos are more relaxable considering the advantages of staying home, turning on the TV, and watching your favorite team at the same time betting on sports betting bookies. The longer the gambler stays on the betting network or casinos, the chances turn against his edge.

So gambler's self-control is deeply correlated with the decision made on the government side. The often gamblers make wrong decisions the turnover decreases, on another side managers want them to make more money(win) so the house edge profit will increase at the same time. Anonymous gambling is prohibited on many countries, only third-world and strictly rules country citizens prefer to hide their tax paper from governments with playing on anonymous gambling platforms.

It is just the same for me, l don't prefer holding new coins in my wallet, that is why most of them are getting useless after few months, it is absolutely not worthwhile in my view. Instead of them, l collect some top altcoins, like above mentioned ETH, BNB. They are most profitable for long-term investing, BTC is not needed to mention, it is just in the first place for investing.

That is right, ETH is one of the best coins, but it is hard to think that ETH can overcome BTC. BTC is the first decentralized monetary and he is top in the crypto world.  Maybe ETH can be famous among altcoins due to being a fundament of ERC20 tokens, but l can not imagine ETH will be replaced by XRP or EOS or NEO.
The price speculation is the story of another time but looking at the things from price perspective will turn your edge to bias in the long term. Always be wise and diversify your investments like the pro-investor or traders.

But it is just prediction, mostly we can predict that after solved the Covid-19 pandemic something will be different and better than at the moment. But none can predict that it is just hard to say something about that. About investing in coins, l agree with your on that, the crypto market is very indefinite and maybe it is best to wait for better day for investing. l think there are still cryptocurrencies, which can be also profitable, maybe we can prefer top altcoins.

The market has been priced right before the halving event, so I don't agree with your points. In the long term it will be a better idea to buy the financial asset before the event gets prices on the market. Halving price was low than previous days, so there is a strong logic to buy before it becomes too late.

In my view, it is just a dream to think about the price at 14$. In my estimation my remember XRP price was 1$ in December 2017 and as you said at the same time everything was different, l mean when the crypto market was hyping up in 2017, XRP could only get the price at the time. XRP will become the history in my view, l don't think there will be any investors, who can be interested in XRP.

Yes indeed Ceo of XRP sold 54 m XRP, and investors who hold XRP are so disappointed. There is bad effect on XRP and as you above mentioned teams are not interested in the future of XRP. That means maybe it is just the best choice to stay away from XRP, it is just my personal opinion. Instead of XRP we prefer other cryptocurrencies, there will be higher chance than XRP.

During this time it was a really good choice to invest in BTC, and if it was being suggested by your friend, it seems he knows cryptocurrency very well. In my opinion, you should trust him and invest in this coin you mentioned. But it seems your mentioned project is just new and you must think again about that, maybe it will be your success, on the contrary, you should decide.

I'm not also a big fan of Masternode, but as l know and considering other experiences l would say that Masternode was one of the good reasons to hold it for a long time, but it seems a lot of people are disappointed by the dumped inflation numbers and most people prefer staying away from this type of passive income. Maybe it is good for you to wait for a long time and expecting to sell at a high price in order to get rid of the potential Masternode coin. I don't personally like top invest such altcoins due to the inflation.

Indeed there is a lot of bad news about XRP, l count also the news of Jed McCaleb. The selling 54m XRP can be the main reason for disappointed XRP holders. No doubt there will be also some impact on XRP, as you know. But there is still some investor, who believe this impact will be disappeared on XRP, and it will start rising up. It is indefinite for me and so hard to think some good about XRP, on the other hand it can be a good choice to sell off XRP.

If you often to be face to face with the scam, maybe you have made something wrong. That is why l don't deny the fact that there are a lot of scam projects, but if you can realize the project, it is hard to see any scam. this method which you mentioned is a really good method to stay away from any airdrops, which are definitely useless.

Of course, having an inside feeling is enough to understand why the person on the Telegram group asks for personal documents. The high gas fee or impersonation is the trouble which we face each day since 2018 and I doubt these scammers will disappear overnight. I think education is the only gun we have in order to fight with fake teams, scammers. No another exit, from my own experience.

Cause of current problems the prices of altcoins are so down and it seems it will still go on. That means it is the best time to buy any coin at a low price and wait for an increased price. But no doubt if you are a long-term investor, it can be the best time for you to collect some altcoins, that is why as you above said it can take a long time for making good profit from your own investment.

When somebody thinks about investing, BTC is just the first choice for making a good profit. For that reason we can say that there is not a big demand for altcoins, maybe it can be an effect on altcoins. But altcoins, absolutely top altcoins are for me valuable, no doubt as you mentioned it can be the best time to collect some altcoins, it will be worthwhile.

In my humble estimation, every new investor just wants to hold Ripple, there is a huge demand for Ripple. But as you above said if they start selling off Ripple, no doubt there will be an impact on Ripple, but not a big impact. For me Ripple is the best for holding long-term, it is really worthwhile to invest in Ripple. I see the nonsense arguments about the centralization but come on people, which coins are decentralized are the altcoins no one has intention to invest. The people and CEO behind the Ripple project did their best for making new partnerships with Moneygram and they are successful now. What about the competitors? Which side of the X competitor is better than this partnership news of Ripple?

You are definitely right about that, maybe between 2017-2018 it could be effective to make to follow this method for making 100x from investment. But as you mentioned it is just hard to make that cause of current problems. Maybe we will see in the near future to rise up altcoins, anyway investing in top altcoins is always profitable. Make the best profit with top altcoins.

As you above mentioned NEO is really one of the good cryptocurrencies, which are really profitable. It doesn't matter the NEO price is just around 10$, maybe you are right about that, after the altcoin season, we can see a better price of NEO than at the moment. After the season a lot of altcoins will rise up, it is not just only my prediction. No doubt NEO can be one of them.

it seems that, both of us have the same plan about that, l just think if l have BTC, l would never looking for any coins, which l invest in. That is why if we think to invest in any coin, BTC is first that l think about investing. But ETH is also the best option after BTC, maybe if you can be enough patient, it will not take a long time to make money.

Even though it was old news, but it is just on the agenda. Etherdelta is really a popular exchange, which a lot of people like you have made first trade on this platform. But as you said the developments from the exchange are very bad at the moment. Maybe the teams will make something about that for increasing the exchange, on the contrary as you mentioned it can be good history.

The problems at the first stages are more common problems, but what is their excuse for today? There is no single person who will prefer Etherdelta just because this exchange has a good history compared to the new DEX markets. I can't see the logic to survive under these market conditions, so there is a need for re-branding or run away.
