Cheer up dude, don't think of it as the end for you, there is always hope and I think that with the amount of money that you lost I believe that you can regain all that and be much more smarter in the next time, and it doesn't matter if he is still chasing his loss, this is completely normal, the problem that you need to face here is moving on with that loss, regain yourself and make a comeback.

I think that there are really some countries that gambling is getting out of hand, there are places as well that no matter what the status is, whether if it is a rich area or a poor area I think that gambling activities will still happen no matter what the status is, the main aspect here is what we call "influence", if the influencer shows this, the crowd will follow, same with BTC and how people promotes it, if gambling starts in this place, gambling will spread in other areas as well, though this is entirely a problem, its just that people may gamble in a wrong manner and will end up blasting their finances and blow their budget off, and if this happens its going to be a domino effect.

If you are really addicted to gambling and you're not used to losing then I think that this option is needed, it can actually help you regain yourself, because in my own perspective I only gamble once or twice in a week whether if it is through crypto or fiat, and I also am ready to face whatever outcome it may be, basically speaking if you have self-control then I think that you'd know when is the right time to quit or just to simply stop gambling for a while.

My biggest mistake was that I wasn't able to take benefit on the stakes back then, the price of ETH was high that I could have take 45% on getting a higher profit, but I was too unsettled and I thought that the price would go up once more, unfortunately the price continually went down and wasn't able to recover in that same price ever sine the market went red.

I won't criticize that much since the OP is just a Jr. Member I am sure that he/she is still learning by now, and aa you can see that ETH is going down as same as the  other cryptocurrencies, though don't get me wrong, ETH is not in a good spot and at the same time in a bad spot either, it needs to recover and everythingz hopefully, year 2019 will be different for the market and for ETH to recover as well.

I usually promote BTC in an old-fashioned way, I usually show this to my friends, I always handpick people that I am sure will understand BTC after I explained them, first of all they will always want to see proof or evidence, so I always show them the amount of Bitcoin/s that I have, and after that I will then explain how everything works in a brief manner, and lastly I will let them sign up on this forum for them to gain more information, and I have done this successfully without any violent reactions towards my friends.

Probably it will apply mixed opinions, some will be positive and some will be negative, there are countries in Asia that has legalized Bitcoin and this is why I think that the impact on other countries in Asia would be highly mixed, and the country that I am saying here is a big influence in the economy and that is Japan, and this is why I think that with Japan's legalization on BTC I think that other countries would follow in as well.

It goes up and down no matter how much we hate it or love it the price will go indefinitely, and if people are interested in Bitcoin then they must know about almost everything, especially with the volatility of the coins in the market and with Bitcoin's unpredictable price movement, if people are interested about Bitcoin then they must accept these conditions before even taking action.

And in my opinion, if you want to learn about BTC the best time for that id when you are studying because when you are still studying your brain is much more active and much more easier to understand rather than an adult, and aside from that this forum is the perfect place for you on knowing more about BTC, the community and threads are the main sources that you will need in understanding  BTC and the whole msrket as well.

And BTC & ETH are cryptocurrencies that has a high percentage of surving on the long run, it fits for people who are looking for long-term investments, though if I were you I would try to differentiate the two, try investing on both BTC and ETH and see for yourself which cryptocurrency would favor you and which one will not, I just hope that you know how to and when will be the right time to invest.

Anonymous teams are just plain obvious, they are simply too scared to show off their identity because they have diabolical plans with your money, they promise this they promise that to you but they are just really scammers that will make you lose your money, its hard to trust an ICO that is anonymous, and it is dangerous, invest at your own risk if you are willing to give off money on ICOs like this.

They are only saying this because whenever the price goes down a lot of people are reacting to it, sarcastically speaking, they think that BTC is dead because the price is low, this happens because newbies or just simply people who have recently learned about Bitcoin have not researched that well, they can easily be fooled once people say that Bitcoin is dying and what happens here is that they just simply follow the crowd and end up giving up on Bitcoin.

Don't prepare for the worst yet, we all know that good things come to and end, but as of what I am seeing right now in the market is from a small recovery now has recovered much more, the price is indeed upsetting but I think that it will fully recover soon, and it is not only Bitcoin whose recovering, some altcoins are recovering as well.

I think for your father, you should have taught him well about how the price works, it really is frustrating once you see the price falling down, patience is the key for you and your father, after the dump there will always be a pump. And I think that now is the perfect time to HODL because you will see the price recovering and not only Bitcoin but the whole market as one.

With a few days left on the line I don't think that the price will likely to reach $300 this year, It would reach 300 on the month of Janury if the uprise would still continue, if the pump is continuous up until January or even February then the pricr of ETH would go even further, don't set the goal on $300 before the year ends, go for an even better goal.

I gotta admit that there really is a downside when having the ability to be anonymous when on making transactions in BTC, and this is why criminals and just simply bad people tend to settle their payments through BTC,  but these are all just negativities, what about tackling the positive things when you have anonymity, first of all is your protection, this is a major factor and I don't want those crybabies to be one-sided when we are talking about anonmyity in BITCOIN.

Invest in a crypto that is not based on the price but rather based on the value, its not about price anymore, its about you and the future of the investment and the cryptocurrency that you have chosen, don't just handpick cryptocurrencies that are leading in the rankings, why not try to pick the underrated cryptocurrencies in the marketz there are lots and I am sure that you won't regret once you have chosen the right coin for you, $2000 is a big number and I am sure that you don't want to lose.

The market is indeed recovering right now, especially for BTC and ETH, Bitcoin gladly went up alongside with a lot of cryptocurrencies especially ETH, XRP, etc. I'm glad to see this though I'm still waiting for its full recovery, as of now it has recovered some of the damage, though I really want the market to fully recover.

This is true, but lets not think of it as the end for BTC, technology does not end, it only evolves and so does the market and BTC as well, maybe some other cryptocurrencies will possibly end due to some reasons but as for BTC I don't see it ending rather than starting a new era since Bitcoin cannot be passive and just stay like this forever, it needs renovation and development.

Or you can start making investments, that is another way on making money from cryptocurrency, by joining in various projects coming from different ICOs, every crypto has one, but what the OP has said is actually the main ways on earning and making money around here, hope it helps out beginners around the forum and who are finding ways to earn some.


Have checked the app on the play store and I think it needs some developing and much more cleaner interface if you'd ask me.
