6461  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: WHY SUCH CONTEMPT AND DISPARAGING FOR ALT-COINS?! on: October 10, 2017, 07:54:14 PM
The hate stems from uncertainty. People have money invested in btc and they react defensively.
A lot of alts are already technically superior to bitcoin, who knows what the future brings for some of them.
No one knows what the future brings, but that does not change the fact that most of the ICOs are scam. It is not that ICOs are not good, but how most people have used the avenue to create coins that are shitty (we cannot deny that) and make the whole market just filled with non progressful coins can be so annoying.

Like you said, it is no doubt that some projects are really coming up which might give a great push in the market but until then and no one knows the future.
6462  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How can you tell if you are suffering from gambling addiction? on: October 10, 2017, 03:11:26 PM
I just want to ask how would you know if a person is suffering from gambling addiction. Can you guys tell me the signs of it?

Its not really hard to figure it out. If a person is ready to gamble even after losing all he had before some time, or if a person cannot do anything else until he gambles some of his money, or if a person is ready to sell anything for the sake of gambling the amount, it means the person is suffering from the addiction of gambling.

The symptoms must be same. But some players will play gambling every day but they will they are not addicted to gambling. in some condition we have to accept this because they are not addicted to losing money they will be addicted to playing games, and they can have control of their games. So here a bit difficult to find out who are addicted and who are not. But in one condition we can believe that they are addicted which is means if any one started to sell his assets to play gambling than 100% sure he/she is addicted to gambling.
If someone keeps on repeating his action on daily basis, it is impossible that he does not become an addict. The only thing is that a person can control his activities and might stop gambling anytime he wants to because of his strong senses and self control but his mind would keep thinking about it for some days.
An addict himself is not aware of his condition but the person around him can highlight such behavior easily. Anyone who is repeating a certain act means he cannot live without doing it.

Gambling addicts also get so much involved in this game that they never realize it and once they do, it is too late. We must take a review of our whole day before sleeping.
What is really funny is that sometimes addicts are always aware of their predicaments but they just cannot help stopping it most times. There is always this feeling that gushes inside them like, yes, there is still a possibility, I can still win it. Once I win this, I will just stop and they keep seeing themselves coming back.

Ask so many addicts today, they will tell you they have wanted to stop so many times, but they just don't know how they keep finding themselves back at the same spot. You can easily tell when such situation is happening, most especially when you are draining yourself emotionally, physically, financially and other necessary-ally but you still keep doing the same thing over and over again.

I agree with you bitcoin can be used by anyone both rich and poor, but the obstacle is how to explain it to everyone about this bitcoin, especially for a remote person like in the village of course internet access is very difficult to obtain.
The truth is that you cannot explain it to everyone and another truth is that not everyone will know about bitcoin or will ever have the slightest idea that bitcoin even exist. Yes, that is fact! Just like the scenario you just mentioned, there are so many remote places that do not have access to the internet or smart technologies let alone get to know how to even get hold of one. Bitcoin may not discriminate but apparently, not everyone can have it.
6464  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Posting/Sharing gambling related topics & news in facebook on: October 09, 2017, 07:34:25 PM
Hi, are you guys afraid of posting or sharing gambling related topics & news in your personal facebook ?

is it because afraid of siblings, parents or girlfriend noticed it ?

or dont wanna let your workmate, colleagues know that you addicted to gambling ?
I never post gamling related topic in my personal facebook, my parent knows that i gamble but i never talk about it with my relatives and my friends. I have a lot of friends on facebook and not all of them is old enough to read something gambling related. I gamble for fun and i don't want other people to make a bad choice that can lead them into something bad.
At the end, it totally depends on the individual. Some people do not like drawing attention to themselves and some societies normally see gamblers as someone with issues. So, it totally depends on the caliber of people around you and how you perceive yourself.

If you feel, you care less about what anyone may think about you on your social page, why not? The decision is up to you. However, I do not see any reason why anyone will want to blow himself to the whole world what he or she does for fun or money (whichever way it is).
I don't know what to say about this but I really don't find any meaning in making announcements about all of your activities.

I mean, if someone is playing gambling then what? Nobody really cares in this world about anyone else routine. Everyone is too busy in his own life and it is true. Also, gambling is not considered a game which will be played by smart or normal people.
6465  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to control greed on gambling? on: October 09, 2017, 05:27:21 PM
You can't control your greed. No one can. If they tell you they can they are simply lying. Gambling is supposed to be an entertaining activity and not a source of income. Consider any positive balance 'lost' unless you withdraw it first.

In short - play for fun and don't chase goals. Any profit at the end of the day/week/month is just a bonus. Good luck.
I totally disagree with you. Greed can be controlled since it is among the seven deadly sins. You can control it the same you control your emotions and sexual desires. If you are just aware that you are greedy and realize it is a weakness that is going to destroy you one day, you can put limits to it and control it the way you want it to be. It is not quite easy, but you can do it in the end. You just need commitment, determination, willpower, and time.
Of course, greed can be controlled but it is only to a certain degree, we can not control the greed forever, at a certain point, a strong temptation will impact our greed, and we will lose control. Especially in gambling, profit is a temptation too great, although we can control and set limits but accumulate greed for long periods, it will be very easy to explode when it has a strong impact from the outside, same as sexual desire, if you can not satisfy it, at some point, you will not be able to control because desire is too large, that is our instinct, we need to satisfy when it needs
I have a little different opinion on this topic. Greed can be controlled and once controlled, the person won't become its easy victim but it will be very difficult for the first time to stop oneself from his temptations.
Next time, it will be a lot easier. This is how addicts recover. The only way to get a control over greed in gambling is to think about the future results.
6466  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I have found a long term and strong dice strategy. on: October 09, 2017, 03:23:09 PM
It is not about 50:50 chances everytime because 50:50 chances are sometime because sometime it is about 70:30 because if you are playing from heart and with skill then you can take away the game.
What the f does this mean?
Dice is not skill game. Write it down on paper and stick it to monitor.
Lol the moment people start realizing gambling or playing dice is not about skills or strategies, the better. Keep formulating strategies and all, you will never win the house and it would have been good if you are just lucky once and take your winnings, then walk away, but it is quite hard once you are in it right cause you will always want to play more and then you will realize that it is not the skills, but the house that is in control.
Making out strategies for random games like slots, dice or roulette is just a beautiful deception. It is like keeping oneself in the darkness and filling one's own head with false hopes.
The victim of such thoughts will spend his whole life in winning from such methods. Poker players do have strategies because they can use skills but no other gambling game can be won by tricks.
6467  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin growth again, what to do? on: October 09, 2017, 12:00:15 PM
I think I should buy bitcoin for now and invest it in the long run.
It seems every year bitcoin will increasingly have a high price  Wink
I don't know about the far future and honestly nobody can tell that but if we talk about the reaming months of 2017 and the coming year only, I think during this time bitcoin is going to put a great show. Its value will keep on increasing and personally what I estimated is that it will be somewhere around 10k dollars by the end of next year for sure. By keeping these things in mind, now is the time to buy more bitcoin and you are going in the right direction.
6468  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin a currency or asset? on: October 09, 2017, 11:11:20 AM
Technically speaking, bitcoin is a currency. It is a decentralized digital currency. But when we speak of its value, I can also say that it is an asset because of how its price appreciate overtime.
It really is a currency for it holds a lot of different currencies itself however, it can be also called asset at the same time due to its significance of the ownership of investor's property within a particular establishment regardless of the price that it has. Though it has an unpredictable status that may drop its value at times but then we always make sure that we meet the value onwards through using other coins or the rest of the bitcoin for trading or holding.
Currency or money is a way to buy things so yes in hat way bitcoin is a money and it is just in digital form. Due to this, it is easy to use than fiat but there is one little problem that its not mainstream yet. However, things are going to change in the future and by watching the present progress, we can say it with certainity. Its also called as a digital asset because of the volatility and profits it gives but for me it is a currency that grows up continuously.
6469  Economy / Speculation / Re: what you think about bitcoin in like 5 years? on: October 09, 2017, 10:18:57 AM
BTC will probably get accepted around places and people with start using it more frequently ...Like in last 2 years BTC price has grown so much and I expect it rise more in 5 years.. it will go till $10000 ..But we can't be confirm about that cause the market is highly volatile in BTC. It has a high chance of development in 5 years looking at the charts of last 2 years.
Bitcoin will be intensively accepted worldwide within next five years. We will be able to make micro payments in bitcoin then. It would be  a lot more than 10k dollars according to me. Even if we say that bitcoin will rise up 3k dollars per year then it means it will be almost 20 k dollars and it is not impossible because the supply is a scarce one and the population will also rise up.
6470  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Coins good for trading? on: October 08, 2017, 06:49:54 PM
There are some telegram channels which will help u trading coins on platforms like bittrex, poloniex etc
You do not have to listen, but if you need a good advice, you should not always rely on telegram channels to make good trading decisions. Even if a coin is signaled to be profitable in a short while, you need to make good research and analyze the whole market yourself and you can do this without the basic knowledge of trading.

I started with these channels sometimes back and I must tell you they can be misleading sometimes if you just blindly follow them.
6471  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Amount of BTC for trading on: October 08, 2017, 06:02:53 PM
if you are beginners to trading its better toy put a small amount first and study because trading is risky and wasting time and money if you dont have knowledge to it..it is no specific amount to trade small amount you can small to earn big amount big earn you got..
Someone without knowledge should not even gamble trading at all cause they will flop. Trading is not something you just wake up to one day and start setting buy and sell orders. It takes skills, knowledge, ability to analyze.
Even those who go through some lessons either online or with a pro trader still takes their time to practice a little with small funds let alone someone who does not have any skills related to trading at all.
6472  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: eBTC. What do you think about it? on: October 08, 2017, 07:27:26 AM
I won't complain having received the airdrop, but what in the world is causing this massive price increase other than pure hype and speculation?
Apparently no one will complain after having received free coins from them and they have apparently given you a huge income boost right now. It is usually normal and everyone who understands the market knows that it is just pure hype and mere pump, that is all. I am not saying it is not a nice project but I don't usually like pumped coins just to stir the market. I hope you guys made the best of it though since the value is back to normal now as expected from every pump.

I tried to send eth to my other wallet, then after i press generate and send, it sent all to
0x4d517D272CE8D879D8891518E70153b49d2CDb96

https://etherchain.org/account/0x4d517D272CE8D879D8891518E70153b49d2CDb96
 
Anyone else got hacked ?



Please copy\paste web site adress of etherwallet that you are using for this, maybe you use some scam sites looks like myerther.

That would be my belief as well.  To OP... did you use a bookmark to get to MEW?  Did you manually type it in... or did you click a link in an email or on a website?  I've seen a few posts about losing coin from a MEW wallet but I've yet to hear it official that it was 'hacked'.

**as a side note, if you clicked a link from a website, it'd be beneficial to post that here so others can be warned.**

myetherwallet.com
i copied and paste the private key and logged on the account as so my other wallet address, is there some how a chrome plugin change the manually inputed wallet to another one ?
Since you used the official wallet, though strange, but there is a possibility of a malware on your system or browser that is hijacking your transaction. That is just a plain explanation for that and the dude behind this is sure making shitload of cash from this. It is important to always check the links you click as well as some webpages you visit and if possible, try to format your PC.
6474  Economy / Economics / Re: Spending Bitcoins on: October 07, 2017, 12:04:19 PM
Spending maybe a half of my bitcoin only..i save bitcoin for my future purpose only Smiley Wink Kiss
Spending of Bitcoins is something which I believe most of the investors and traders of Bitcoin will not appreciate as well as my own self. Spending of Bitcoin actually means that you are wasting your own money with your very own hands.

There is no point of spending Bitcoin till the time it becomes very much necessary. You need to be very much wise and smart in deciding this thing. I will advise’ you not to spend your Bitcoins, rather save your Bitcoins for more profit.
6475  Economy / Economics / Re: How to invest in bitcoin? on: October 07, 2017, 10:19:43 AM
I have seen many ways to earn bitcoin, and still not familiar with some of it. I am a student and I wanna ask how to invest in bitcoin, and if students like me are capable of doing that already?

Please share your thoughts. Thanks.
I think, the simplest way to invest in Bitcoin is to buy Bitcoin and hold it for a period of time. Investing to Bitcoin is a good idea because it is a good ibvestment for the reason that its market value is continuously increasing as time passes by. And holding your invested Bitcoin will result into huge profit in the future as its market value is getying more expensive.



Bitcoin is a digital currency system and the invest in bitcoin are systcampaigns  I think the best way of earning bitcoins for students is via signature campaigns. Signature campaigns don’t even disturb their studies at all and they can easily use their knowledge in these campaigns and this also one way to invest in bitcoin.
Signature Campaign is no doubt a very good way of income not only for the students but for so many others as well who are not having sufficient resources to buy Bitcoin.

As far as investing in Bitcoin is concerned, I think it all depends on you. You can invest in Bitcoin the way you want to. You can go for buying of Bitcoins and then you can either hold your Bitcoins or even start trading of Bitcoin. The choice is yours.
6476  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Worst mistake in gambling on: October 07, 2017, 08:58:33 AM
mistake I ever had when I was playing dice. when I did not realize I was using a 5% chance, and in conditions of max bet. one click so lost all Grin
Lmao, man you should have been more careful. Where was your mind? Two years ago, I was playing dice and your case happened to me. As soon as I was about to click, I realized in a matter of 0.5 seconds that I had been using a 5% chance. So, I quickly moved the cursor away. I was like "Oh God, that was very close." It was a relief to be honest. And it was a good feeling that I did not make that mistake.
I think we all had that moment either it was a close call like yours or saddening that you have clicked it and lost everything. It's easily mistaken that you are either in a 95% chance or 5% chance in dice and what easily makes it happen is that dice is a very fast quick and easy win/lose kind of gamble. You shouldn't regret playing unless you made a mistake.
This kind of behavior has become a really common thing among all of the gamblers society indeed! We all know the reason behind it. I think that this could not be considered as a mistake. If you are interested to win, then why not you should opt for the last roll in dice games as it could earn you a win as well be if there are more chances to lose. I usually don’t give up in such scenarios because I do it for fun and this is the real fun.
In my opinion, gambling itself is a big mistake ,one of the most dangerous ones that people can make in their lives. Such acts can bring you to the point of committing suicide. However, if played for the sake of fun, it may not at least take the life of the gambler away. Still it would be much better to utilize that time in some productive deed or just spend some time alone with your own.
6477  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know when to stop? on: October 07, 2017, 08:27:40 AM
When I win 300%  Grin
I don’t think so that most of the people quit when they are at the peak of their luck. Actually it is not possible at all to decide the time of luck and hardship. If it would ever be so then no one would ever lose. The best time to stop is a really funny question as we all know that having complete control over nerves, it is logical to stop when you have lost more than you can afford.
Winning increases the greed inside a person. Only few people flee away when they hit a jackpot. If you ask me when to quit the game, I will always say leave it any time because continuing it can be catastrophic. Gambling is an unpredictable game so it is better to not lose any more money than someone has already lost and it is for his own betterment. It is just a wastage of time.
6478  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to Turn Gambling into a Profitable Activity on: October 06, 2017, 07:50:46 PM
I'm not sure that gambling can give us a financial advantage. Gambling is a very risky game and I am sure that gambling is a game that only relies on luck. So not exactly if gambling made a profitable activity. There are many other useful and doable ways. We must have improvisation and have the mindset that gambling is not the best way to earn money.
I do not think there's any way we can turn gambling into profitable activity except play and expect luck to always come to us. As you say, gambling depends heavily on luck, so it's impossible for us to control it, except in games like poker or sport bet, you have a chance to use your skills there.
For turning any activity into a profitable one, it must have some capacity or goodness in it. Something that can be turned into a benefit. It is like asking that how to grow wheat on barren land when the barren land has no capacity of it. I will support your answer by saying that gambling indeed is a random game and pure luck so we cannot mould it according to over desires.
6479  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: BUY high sell low ? on: October 06, 2017, 06:54:33 PM
Everything is easy to control. Just control it.
Yes, it is you who has to control the things. If you manage to control the things in a better way, you will be able to get a lot of profit and earning. I think selling your Bitcoins at a low price will never be appreciated. You need to keep calm and cool under any condition so that you make a right decision. Selling at fewer prices can never result in case of right decision.
Yes this strategy has more scope as compare to fast sell and trade as buying in low gave you advantage and sale in high will give you profit and then you will get more than you expect. So buy as much as you can and hold till the prices goes up and in November these will go up and will rise till end of 2k17.
I have been giving one statement for years now, "Never sell out your asset lower than the price you bought it in". If the price of a particular asset touched a high value that means it has the potential to do that again.

Bitcoiners must trust bitcoins because it has a great capability of recovering and I am also looking forward to November as Segwit 2 xs is going to be activated. It will increase the value for sure.
Only a fool can sell off coins at a price lower than he bought them at and if it is the case of bitcoin, that person is so unlucky if he is selling bitcoin at lower prices because we all know that bitcoin at any time can jump damn high in prices. Bitcoin is when at low price, it is rather the time to buy more and more bitcoin than selling them off. Bitcoin should never ever be sold at low prices if you really want to be rich.
6480  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: what do you think about pump and dump? on: October 06, 2017, 05:35:05 PM
A trading expert once advise me to never subscribe into pump and dump group as most of them are fraud and idea to dump coin on the inexperienced traders. Though people are saying that they are some reliable one but to me the idea is not worthwhile for me to put my hard earned money into it. I do analyze the market myself and buy when necessary.
This pump and dump is the real beauty in the world of crypto currency especially. I think that time of pump and dump is the most crucial time and in fact that time decides whether you are going to have a good amount of profit or not. So you need to cash those moments in a way that you can have a good earnings.
This is a fact that bitcoin pump and dump is the real changer of the game in the crypto market. Pumps and dumps are not only important for bitcoin rather every coin has to go through these phases to stay alive in the crypto market. Those who know how to take advantage of these phases are at present the rulers of the crypto market. Buying in dumps and selling in pumps is the best option for becoming rich.
