661  Economy / Economics / Re: Countries with banks to buy and sell cryptocurrencies on: March 09, 2020, 04:26:18 PM
There is NO WAY banks are not buying into crypto fever. They are the biggest players in the financial world and they are definitely trying their best to make as much money as possible and bitcoin is literally out there to get power under them and bring it back to people so they will want to make some sort of investment against that.

They probably caused the 2017 peak as well because they wanted to buy as much as possible and store somewhere in case bitcoin became too powerful, they can't just be left behind watching when everyone is making money. However the real money will come when instead of binance, coinbase and stuff like that we have international huge banks like HSBC helping people buy/sell/trade and even send/receive bitcoins with ease and charge less.

Maybe there could be some smaller ones that gets connected by together creating one more coin that could be exchanged for and get bigger? I know it is not an ideal situation but if you are a coin that has a less than 1 million dollars market cap that kind of means that you are not going to be anything as long as you continue that way, no coin that has under 1 million market cap can suddenly become a billion dollar coin, there is no way.

What could be done is create a token that basically exchanges that token with some other smaller coins and eventually 5-10-20-50 or whatever number of coins can all join in together to create one bigger token. Of course, financially and technologically it will be a very very tough thing to achieve but if coins can do that, we can actually see something amazing.

I think whoever worked for stake/primedice a year ago is now working for windice as well, these are literally the exact same type of challenges that saw stake get worse and worse and people gambling there less, it attracted a specific niche type of players but since it wasn't a general type of thing the overall wagering number dropped while there was a lot of people who joined these contests.

Do you know how you attract more people and create more buzz about your website? If you donate to a women's help cause type of thing globally with some sort of competition and the profits of that competition going to that charity. That way if the gambler wins they win, if they lose the money goes to a charity related to women. You don't celebrate women by rolling a 2003 dice, sorry.

I'm betting for Trump to continue his presidency.

To be fair, I once a Bernie supporter, he seems to care about his people truly. But, then I realized he is too communist.
You are correct about Bernie and to be fair, Trump does not have a real competitor in the race. Trump's party supports him and for the opposite party, there is no real competitive competitor. Trump will win this election, much easier than his previous campaign, then having his second presidency.
It doesn't matter if you are a Bernie supporter or not, it doesn't matter if you would vote for him or you see his stuff online everywhere or anything like that, it doesn't even matter about polling in the end because polling means somebody called someone and asked.

When it comes to young voter turnout, even Bernie who managed to create this insane social media presence failed on super Tuesday, people who were under 40 years old didn't go out to vote all that much, waiting in line for 5+ hours was too much of a "task" to them and many of them didn't even know the dates. So as you can see whoever attracts more 65+ year olds will get the nomination and that is Biden.

I would love it if Bernie was the president, that would be awesome but he won't be all due to laziness of the young voters on super Tuesday. From here on out there are not many states Bernie can win, it looks like he is done and Biden will win, Bernie had to make a splash in super Tuesday and get some Biden states but instead Biden got some Bernie states which was the nail in the coffin for Bernie's campaign. Biden versus Trump will be really easy for Trump as well, he will destroy Biden and will get reelected.

I really can't believe this Watford team, they have the talent to beat Liverpool and not just beat them but destroy them with 3-0 and then they go ahead and lose to Crystal Palace who barely played a semi-decent game against them. In the end I seriously imagined they would beat and get away from the regulation zone but now that they are at 27 points in 29 games (seriously how could you not get 1 points per game) Aston Villa has a higher chance, they are only 2 points behind but 2 games behind as well which is potential of 6 points, if they get even just one win from that they will be ahead. If nothing else, Watford should look to have a really good defensive game from now on to at least get some draws in order to gain some points because it is once again looking very scary.
666  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: [Sad News]: Nigerian shot dead after resisting robbers access to crypto phone on: March 08, 2020, 07:43:52 AM
damn this is really alarming because the crime involving crypto is increasing ,and having that 400$ is the root for killing ones life?
expecting $10,000 will surely disappointing them,this is why we need not to tell anyone about how much our wallet has,so this crime wont come in our part.

but piece of advice,if time comes this happens to you guys,please Give what they need and never resist because life is much important than anything else.
I agree that money must be way more important than money, because money can be earned when you live but life cannot be earned when you are not existent. I really don't know why he resisted when he saw 4 people are there and they have weapons, personally I would never ever resists in such situations because it does not even make sense. But that said, these 4 criminals must be hanged to set an example.

I heard there is some poverty in Nigeria as half of the population is below poverty line but killing someone for $400 must be seriously ill-minded and there is no way killing the person would benefit them in any way.

Please if anyone has any link on the judgement of these suspected criminals, like what punishment was given to them please link me to that article.
667  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Random coin picks experiment on: March 07, 2020, 08:36:21 PM
There is no definite trading strategy here and you are just investing randomly and hoping to get good returns.
This might work 1 or 2 times but it's guaranteed to lose the next time. So consider rethinking about this right now.
Not really because if you on average look at coins in the market you will notice that at least 1 of the 5 coins will rise and the other 4 will not become dust immediately and will at least yield small loss only. I mean yes the market is very unstable in terms of alts but if you just do little due diligence then you can make fine profits and yes some bad rounds will always happen.

By the way looking at your disappointment in your post it seems like you never had good trading memories.

The market is bleeding. My portfolio went down to 10-15%. Such a sudden drop. I have 19 days to wait. Hopefully, each coin will pump in this period so I can close my positions and prepare for the next round.
That is one problem I see with alt coins because when a altcoin which is not so significant in market drops down it usually just keeps dropping lower and lower, I don't know what the reason is but I have hardly seen coins that drop below expected price and then raise back to unexpected prices.
668  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Why not decentralized exchange..? on: March 07, 2020, 08:00:20 PM
There are some decentralized exchanges in the markets but why we do not use them maximum times is because of the low volume and low liquidity rate. We traders always want quick trades which can only be fulfilled with high liquidity exchanges which are mostly been provided by the centralized exchanges.

Most of the decentralized exchanges have minimum amount of traders which would never keep the order books filled. I would love to use a decentralized exchange if it fulfills my requirements but until now I have seen none of such exchange. We also need security about holding our funds and centralized exchanges gives us that security.
669  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: 5 mistakes every crypto trader should avoid on: March 07, 2020, 07:33:42 PM
I also want to share my experience before when I started to trade. I really laughing when I remember those experiences. Most of the 5 mistakes indicated in the first post are I experienced.
And also not putting stop-loss before, like I am over confident on every my trades before, but lesson learned.
Every traders have mistakes we can not avoid that every one experienced that 5 mistakes but the good are once they experienced that in the next trade they know what they are doing. Traders need to experience that all so that in the next trading they know what they are doing to avoid it.
Trading is everything which depends on experience. Why are the most experienced traders the ones who are having major profits as compared to newbies? That is only because they have experience and can handle any situation carefully with their best strategies. This makes them have major profits and least loss. Newbies especially go for direct trading without thinking about what would happen if the market gets reversed which also does not make them prepare a plan b to exit the markets.

This also lands them in excess loss many times. At the initial stage, even the newbies should never think about the profit or loss but they should constantly keep on increasing their experience which would surely be a life saver for them in the nearly approaching future.
670  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What if Bitcoin is used in direct value. on: March 07, 2020, 06:33:56 PM
I have always imagined how fine and pleasant it will be if we won't need to convert our Bitcoin into another currency, such that it will be spent directly in it value. At least you can spend US dollars any where within and outside the country , though this idea may not be in favour of some traders. But I feel it will bring bitcoin more universal and standing on it's direct value.whats your take about this.
The worth of any asset needs to be addressed in some form, I mean how would you know what is the worth of bitcoins if we are not going to know it's value in some standard currency. It's technically impossible for anyone to accept or buy bitcoins if they are unable to sell their bitcoins in any standard currency because ultimately any vendor would want to convert their bitcoins into fiat.

The best that can every happen is that, bitcoins could reach a position like tether where it remains the same value all the time but then it is nearly impossible to achieve that for a decentralized coin.
671  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Have you ever lost access to your Bitcoins? on: March 07, 2020, 06:03:08 PM
I never lost any bitcoins because of my own mistake but I have lost some because of others mistakes. Basically it was my mother's mistake and while I regret her mistake I cannot even think of blaming her because she was completely unaware of what she had done.

I kept my private word phrases written on a paper and kept in my personal desk where I used to keep a lot of other papers too, while I was away my mum decided to clean my room and she actually thought that paper was nothing but another piece of garbage and she burnt it with other papers in the backyard and I cannot even remember how much bitcoins was there because that wallet was just to save money for the next 10 years.
672  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What's really good have you received from the results of the gambling bounty on: March 07, 2020, 05:16:56 PM
Certainly does not if you live in some first world country, gambling bounties can help you somewhat as support income but you might not be live off that.
Also there are only few bounties on gambling and you being honest can only claim those bonuses/bounties once and I don't think anyone can make a living off thee small amounts because even with these bonuses there are some wagering strings attached and I think sometimes you can loose too.

If you have hero/legendary rank, then you might be able to support yourself in cheaper living cost countries, like some Asian ones.
Yes signature campaigns are great but then it's irrelevant to the discussion actually and if talking about alternative methods of earning then there are a few suggestions I can also share which are:
1- Claiming free airdrops
2- Taking part in games and rounds section here in gambling
673  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Assess your gambling addiction level. on: March 07, 2020, 04:46:41 PM
Im in the level 1-3 and level 4-6 because they have information in the first level that I do and also to the second level that I experienced .
I would be falling under level 0 maybe or say level 1 because I forget gambling when I am busy with work but I can relate to Level 1 because I when I am not doing anything I am gambling most of the time and I am a sports betting person so I don't feel I am addicted though.

But before Im very addicted player because I use more money that I have and many money that I use is gone and not recover.  Im very happy right now because I gain money in gambling and I hope to continue my luck.
But you are again going in the wrong direction it seems because look yes you are being lucky and winning which I good and I feel happy for you, but once you start loosing you will slowly come under severe levels of gambling. Since, you mentioned that you have been there where you gamble more than you could afford to so I can only suggest you to detach yourself from gambling once you win enough to satisfy yourself.
674  Economy / Economics / Re: Cryptocurrency can not replace fiat currency. on: March 07, 2020, 09:35:26 AM
It was definitely created to have like an alternative to world powers if you ask me. Not that it should be replacing fiat but at least have some sort of alternative when the world powers try to grab more and more of the wealth. When you have bitcoin there is no centralized organization that can make you poor. Normally on dollars let's say you manage to get more dollars, they make sure that they print more money for themselves to outpace your gains so you become poorer even when you have more fiat.

In bitcoin it is not like that and that is the power of bitcoin and that is why it is an alternative to regular fiat. It may or may not replace fiat but that is not the whole of it, even if doesn't replace it, as long as it gives us the financial power to ignore the wealthy, that is more than enough.

Looking at the current contest there is someone already making a lead and at 8.2 bitcoins, even with that dude is literally risking enough to actually not make a profit but with the results I am 100% sure it will be over the estimated profit line once again.

Considering competition should be making them a profit, I wonder why windice gave a break to making these, I mean when you calculate the last one was literally 30 bitcoins and had a wagering house edge estimate of 0.3 loss, I don't know if they made any profit or not on that one but that was the expected result and even if they didn't profit from that one, if they kept it up more frequently they would eventually profit on average. They are the ones running the casino and they must know something we don't see or know about.
676  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Collective DEX Volume is Starting to Outperform Some Major Exchanges on: March 03, 2020, 07:27:23 PM
This is a very good sign that Decentralized exchanges are getting good volume, which was needed! Now, I believe many traders will come to DEX, because it is secure with fewer hackings issue!
I guess you must be having very good opinion about the decentralized exchanges whereas I'm not having such a opinion because in my experience, I still believe the decentralized exchanges are not actually decentralized and only up to some point, they are ensuring about decentralization but not for complete trading.

Recently, I have noticed that Etherflyer
DEX exchange came on the top rank according to Coinmarketcap! I don't know how is this possible, because almost 2 billion trading volume in a DEX is just impossible! This is incredible! The good thing is once Etherflyer exchange looked very confusing and difficult but now it's User Interface like a pro-CEX and easy where it is a Decentralized!
This is first time I do hear about the exchange Etherflyer and I must appreciate for your time about its ranking thing on coinmarketcap. It is really good to know such a performance from a decentralized exchange. I will keep on tracking them by following their volume/reputation from this community.
677  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: List of active projects by commits on GitHub on: March 03, 2020, 06:56:58 PM
I think cardano was one of the leading ones as well that is missing in this list. That is why I actually bought ADA for the first time when I bought it because there was a whole team of developers working on it constantly and they broke the "consecutive days of commits" in github for any cryptocurrency project when they first came out so that was a great deal.

Others are awesome too, I do have waves right now and I did had ARK too and I am not sure about deeponion one but I am sure that will be decent as well if they care about it enough. I do not think any project that has above 16k commits could ever be a scam, it could be a failed project if they are not good at what they do but I don't think they will be fraud.
678  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: So are we in bullish times or Not?? on: March 03, 2020, 05:59:03 PM
It is brutal, maybe in the short term an upward path can occur, you must have nerves of steel to buy and hodl, honestly it is the best option to expect the very sure upward movement that will occur at any time.
After two days of down fall market in this week, today bitcoin market showed some positive edge. I believe into the concept of buying at every dips. This way the recent down fall from $10,400 levels to $8,200 levels must be a very good buying opportunity for anyone who want to buy and hold for years.

Currently the downfall conditions of market days are smaller in count than the number of days on which market is rising up. This must be the enough witness for anyone to conclude that bitcoin market is in its bullish times.
679  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How cryptocurrency arbitrage works on: March 03, 2020, 04:28:53 PM
Arbitrage is a short-living opportunity and it might be beneficial to the traders who spot it earlier and sporting such opportunity with the help of bots may not be working as when more people are competing each other then the price levels will merge quicker than we could make use of them.

Longer the gaps, bigger the profits. I mean arbitrage must be a kind of secret trading and when more people are chasing it it will not serve its actual purpose. All I am trying to say is, if you got a bot for spotting out the arbitrage opportunities, then you must try to make use of it on your own account confidentially so that you will be enjoying big profits. But, I'm not sure what people are doing by advertising such bots which triggers questions on credibility of such bots.
680  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading vs. Investing. on: March 03, 2020, 03:42:51 PM
So if you want to earn more money, you can do both things, the more, the merrier, if you are a beginner, then don't invest and trade significant amount of money because you may fail from it, you should do research first before doing that because it is not a simple thing, you should have an excellent knowledge and skill to be successful in both methods.
I appreciate your points still there are many differences in this crypto space compared to any other markets; those new people who are able to find the difference, they could get easy chances to make big profits in short period of time itself unlike any other markets.

Unlike any other market you may start investing into bitcoins from your day-one itself and you will never get disappointments as per what people are doing for last 10 years. At the same time trading bitcoin is NOT recommended from day-one. Yes, only investing is easier for good profits in this crypto space. People who are spotting this difference, might get big chances of their lifetime.
