6981  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Which type of trading you think is good? on: August 30, 2020, 09:48:53 AM
I'm not going with existing theory. I have categorized trading as follows-
1. Based on technical analysis
2. Based on event news
While I'm not much expert in TA, I can achieve it if I spend some hours a day for a month I belive.
On the other hand, trading based on event news is pretty easy. You don't need to have much knowledge other than the capacity of ebaluating a project.
What do you think? Which method is good?

I think that will depend on how good that person analyzes the market because some people will trade based on the technical analysis, but the other people will trade based on the event news. But the other people will trade based on how the market moves, and if they think that they can enter the market and buy the coin at a low price, they will do that and try to analyze some coins to buy.

People will select what method will work well for them, and they can't use the other people's method if that method does not work for them. It is better to search what method can help us make a profit, which is why we need to learn about the market analysis. I would not say that it is easy to do because that will depend on our skills.

Doing bitcoin requires more time, learning skills, open mind and patience. Oh another things is if you love what you do, you enjoy it..and if you enjoy what you do, you will surely succeed!

Patience will be important in learning about cryptocurrency because we might get some bad experience in the journey. If we don't have a patient, we will not improve our skills and knowledge, and even we can't learn new things related to cryptocurrency. There will be times that we need to master or improve our skills, and we can't expect to have those skills in just one night.

If we can learn in many ways without stopping, I am sure that we will have high trading skills or another thing that can help us make money and reach our goals. It is okay if we could only make a little profit because someday we will make a big profit.

Perhaps, we think that is not worth doing, but people are trying to make money in many ways. Some people are trying to make money from cockfighting, and even they know the risk if they are caught. The situations force them to do anything, so they can have money to buy their daily needs.

As you said, we don't know what their reason for betting on cockfighting. But one thing that we know, for a small society, is what they can do now because perhaps, they don't find any jobs available for them. We hope that people can find jobs to make money, so they don't have to bet in gambling games.

In today's time with everyone having access to internet it doesn't really matter where the casino is based, you can access it from anywhere. And if some websites are banned you can just use a VPN.
I think a country should not outright ban online casinos, better to control and regulate them. And also profit from tax revenues.


The internet did bring life to online gambling and they are more profitable then physical casinos in some ways, these two forms of gambling will not fade, there is market for offline casinos and there are also market for online casinos and this is as long as man earn enough money he will gamble whether online or offline.

Both online gambling and offline gambling will still grow and will get their fan themselves. People will have their own choice to play on where they like, and they will not have a problem even if the gambling place will need KYC or not.

The legality of each online and offline gambling will be on the owner's concern, and the owner will realize that the legality things are one of the things that they should obey. They will not try to break the rule because that is what they need to do to run their business, and besides being legal, they can convince people that they are not trying to scam people.

We need to give him time to do whatever he wants to do, and we don't have to search who he is because I don't think we can find him if he doesn't want to reveal himself. He can easily show himself to the public who he is and tell everything about his creation and explain more details about what we want to know. But until that time, that will be only a secret which we don't know who he is.

We should continue what he has done, and we should thank you to him because of his work, we can have a new opportunity to make money. Perhaps, now he still does something secret that makes him hide behind the wall and not tell the public about him.
6986  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Crypto Investing/trading Opportunities for stable returns? on: August 29, 2020, 04:23:41 AM
I will prefer to study trading and learn how to earn thru trading as others were able to earn more than 12%.
It is what I suggest to my friends who want to try to invest in some programs. I tell them that platforms will not give them profit, but they will lose their money because I already have those experiences to invest in those platforms. A study about trading will have the opportunity to make a profit while you can select many coins that can go up and down every day.

I do only have one investment that is managed by other trades but it also have a guarantee benefit of insurance and registered in my country. If there's a crypto platform that can guarantee return and their ability to sustain their platform longer maybe I can consider.
The platform can guarantee to give the return, but I don't think that the market will always follow what you want because the investment platform will follow the market. So when the market is at the downtrend for a long time, your investment value will be reduced too, and it needs time to see your investment will start to grow.
6987  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Buying Bitcoin with no KYC verification on: August 29, 2020, 03:19:09 AM
Hi guys, I'm looking for a safe way to buy Bitcoin or any Altcoin with USD (Fiat) using Credit Card or Paypal without any ID verification. Do you guys have any idea how to do this.

You can try to search for the members on here, and contact him/her to buy bitcoin with your Paypal. I think that will help you to avoid the verification process if you buy bitcoin at the exchanges. You can open offers in your thread here to buy bitcoin, but I suggest you hire an escrow agent so that it will be safe for both you and the escrow.

Or you can search on Facebook to find local sellers which you can try to buy bitcoin with him/her. I think that is reasonable if you want to avoid the verification. Besides that, I think that can work well for you and you will not have a problem.
6988  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Mind Blown Gambling Facts on: August 29, 2020, 02:38:44 AM
I saw these scenes in hollywood movies but never thought that these are practice in reality in the prisons. The purpose of moving criminal to prison is not only that he do not commit crimes but also his character is build up and he come out as a better person. If criminals keep play gambling, do fighting and take drugs in jail, then the purpose is not fulfilled.
In some country it's typical that when a drug Lord or rich people arrested and in behind bars some are still treated as if they didn't commit crimes and do glings and make the people their slaves. Some officials were allowing it since maybe they get also something from them. If only their will be a stricted rules and officials will be too faithful in their obligations these things will not happen. It's mind blowing that there are government officials that are still doing it.
Corruption is everywhere, it is possible to live haven like life inside the prison itself when you have money.And officials also wants to earn some so they let every criminal to do everything they wanted at the premium price tag, poor administration will lead their country prisons into such conditions.

When we talk about corruption, it will depend on how we control our minds not to corrupt. No matter if there is many tempt to corrupt, if we have a strong mind, we will not get the effect. But still, it is very difficult to eradicating corruption everywhere because money will get them there in the trap, and they will follow what the person wants.

We can see that corruption is not just happening in prison, but it is also in the public because many people are hunger for getting "hot money" even if they are paid from their institution. But I am sure that corruption will reduce in one day because many people realize that it is not good for them.
6989  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Regulations in online Gambling sites on: August 29, 2020, 01:38:34 AM
Usually, when people know about their country's regulations, they will not use their real IP when they visit the online gambling site. They prefer to use private VPN to play gambling because that can hide their real IP from the ISP's tracking. But some people still use their real IP to playing gambling, and so far, there is no tracking from the ISP. But the ISP still monitor them, just in case if they are using the internet connection just to play online gambling.

But I think it will difficult to regulate online gambling sites because the sites will choose to open their business in the country, which allows gambling, and they will not have a problem with the user that comes from many countries.

Your ISPs always monitoring you, even if they say they're not. Their software and hardware can do nothing but track you, it's up to the ISP whether or not they keep this information, and whether the law requires them to or not (and they do, they like being on the good side of enforcement). Think it's only Switzerland that has enough privacy laws to not require ISPs to track you.

It's up to us to protect our privacy in the end.

Yes, they will not tell us they track us, but if the government asked about the data, the ISP would give it for the investigate reason. The track will be given to the government if something bad happens, such as hacking, carding, or illegal activities. The government will track the IP that is connected to the victim, and if the government found the target because of using one ISP, they will ask the data.

But so far, I guess many people already visit on many websites, including porn and gambling, using their real IP or VPN, and the ISP is not doing something except blocking the connection to that sites.


Can our ISP still do that even if we are using VPN to mask our real IP address? I mean, can they know that we are accessing the gambling sites? It would be helpful to me if I get the right answer as I have friends that has an static IP who gambled without using VPN.

I guess they can still track it. We can ask our ISP to know the real answer, but I think they will not tell you since that will be their secret, and they don't want the public to know about that. The ISP bond with the regulation from the government, and they need to obey the regulations.

I think the ISP of your friend knows about that, but they don't do anything because perhaps, your friends don't use too big money.

You explained everything that is needed, there's always that restriction when a gambling site or casino is legalized and they need to strictly comply or follow it, and that includes not allowing minors to gamble, and one way to prevent that is by requiring KYC to all gamblers who like to sign up for an account.

However, does the crypto enthusiast people would like this? Knowing crypto is suppose to be for anonymity or privacy.

can we still enjoy the anonymous gambling?

That is for the offline casino, but I am afraid that it will not easy to see it works too with an online casino, especially an online crypto casino. We know that online crypto casino is not yet legalized in many countries, even in some country, crypto itself is not legalized. That can give easiness for the minors to visit on the site and play the gambling games. And when they visit the online crypto casino and find the faucet to get free coins, they will try the games, and I think they will like it.

But I am sure that if we still use the online crypto casino, we can still enjoy anonymous gambling because, in the online crypto casino, we don't have to do KYC. Besides that, we have many options for the online crypto casino, which doesn't require KYC.

It is surely a good step to legalize all online crypto casinos because aside from avoiding a lot of scammers, it can also help the government as well which will add to tax revenue. But the big problem would be our sense of anonymity, it will definitely be forgotten as regulations from the government would strictly be implied.

Before the government legalizes all online crypto casinos, they need to approve the use of crypto. Yes, we will have a problem if the government legalizes the online crypto casinos because the casino will require the KYC, which we need to fills. But I am sure there is an online crypto casino that doesn't use KYC.
6991  Economy / Economics / Re: The pros and cons of going cashless on: August 28, 2020, 07:35:31 AM
With the growth of technology, people tend to use credit/debit cards to shop in a local store, but the local store still accepts paper money because not all people feel comfortable using credit/debit cards. The government itself still uses paper money and distributes it to the public, so people can still use paper money. But as we know, and many members said, there will be the advantage and disadvantages by using the paper money and cashless. But people still prefer to use paper money to buy in the local store.

Stable coins are issued by third parties and you would have to trust them for not dumping on the market whenever they want, but this isn't the problem with bitcoin as it isn't a centralized cryptocurrency and due to its decentralized nature we don't have to worry about the exit scams as that of other centralized currencies or with the premined ones. So higher are the chances of either bitcoin becoming the widely accepted crypto or a new centralized crypto made by the union of banks or on a per country basis becoming the leading currency of the future.

I think the stable coins are not for dump or pump coins because so far, the stable coins price is not moving too high or low and tend to still stable. So if the government wants to use cryptocurrency, it will calm down people in the payment system because they can pay using the stable coins.

Bitcoin would be the investment type and the payment system, and the stable coins would be the payment system in the transaction.

You can try to pay something using bitcoin in the online store, and you will found that the price will always change, and the fee will always follow. But lets we wait for what each government will do related to use cryptocurrency at the supermarket.
6993  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I can't wait until I can pay using bitcoin at the supermarket on: August 28, 2020, 03:57:43 AM
Bitcoin has a lot of competitors, and some of those are Defi by ETH, then there's chainlink and lastly Polkadot. Those projects are much hype right now and blowing up in terms of demand. So i don't think that anytime soon, will see Bitcoin as main currency used for payments for every services. Honestly, what i think is every Cryptocurrency should be accepted payments.

I don't think some projects from DeFi, chainlink, and polkadot are competitors for bitcoin because bitcoin still leads the market. You can look around at the market what will happen with bitcoin price will happen to with altcoin and the other tokens. But the token mostly following with ethereum price, and ethereum price is following bitcoin price.

Perhaps, the stable coins can be used as the payment system as the stable coins' price is not too volatile. I think the customer will not worry about seeing the price up to and down when they want to pay something.
6994  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Legal Matter on: August 28, 2020, 02:57:34 AM
It is difficult to make gambling legal, especially in a country which is not allow gambling. But we see that gambling is allowed in some countries, and gambling contributes by giving taxes to the government. The government can make gambling legal, but the government needs to make some regulations related to gamblers' ages because the kids can play gambling without their parents know. However, that is no guarantee that the kids can't play gambling secretly.

I agree with the @OP about opening gambling, but with terms and conditions, only adult people can play gambling. But still, when it comes to online gambling, it will not easy as the kids can visit on the gambling site anytime they want.
6995  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Regulations in online Gambling sites on: August 28, 2020, 01:54:25 AM
So if you are a gambler, make sure that you are familiar with your country's regulations when it comes to online gambling. Otherwise, you will be screwed and potentially lose your funds by honest mistake. Every country has their own set of rules, so just respect whatever they have to avoid facing problems.

Usually, when people know about their country's regulations, they will not use their real IP when they visit the online gambling site. They prefer to use private VPN to play gambling because that can hide their real IP from the ISP's tracking. But some people still use their real IP to playing gambling, and so far, there is no tracking from the ISP.

well that's the risk when playing at a gambling place because it can give you instantaneous losses but when you get a profit you can become rich instantly but the benefit ratio is very small than the disadvantages, so whoever the person when he wants to gamble should at least have realized that the money can be. just disappear instantly when taking a wrong position.

The ratio of getting losses will be bigger than the winning ratio because the house doesn't let the gamblers get the winning most of the time. We have the risk of losing the money, whether we realize or not, so before we lose all of the money, we can stop gambling because that can prevent the worst situations.

~snip~
but he already ruined his life by doing that kind of act which was robbery . robbing is worster than gambling , all robbers are infact more involved on gambling because they arent afraid of loosing anyway  .

 if they lost they can just rob again , ez pz for them . what we are talking on here  is only an example  , all kinds of people can be involved on anything but its how they control them selves

Yes, he already ruined his life by robbing, but he prevents other things that can make him get double bad things by losing the money in the gambling games. That is an example, but if that person knows about the bad thing in gambling, he will not playing gambling, and he will use that money for other things. And if he doesn't have the money, perhaps, he will steal the money again, but not for playing gambling. Yes, in this thing, controlling ourselves will be necessary to prevent the worst thing that might come to us.
6997  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin can fall up to $9k or rise up to $17k - which one will happen. on: August 27, 2020, 08:54:07 AM
It really is hard to predict where the price is going to head it''s either it moves forward or backward, it could go either way it' been like this ever since Bitcoin was traded, there are so many factors why the price goes up and down, but I just notice that bad news will not make a big impact on the price anymore, but the good news does make a big impact on the price the market has matured.

I just hope that the price will not go down below $10k because if that happens, I cannot imagine what people will react, especially if they still hold bitcoin that they buy at $11k. But I think some people already cut their bitcoin's loss because today, the price is down again and reach $11,300-$11,400 level, and the price has the chance to go down for further.

We hope that the bad news will not make the price go down, so people will not confuse and panic. I am sure that it is just another correction that will always happen to bitcoin price, so after this drama, the bitcoin price will have more chances to break every high price. You need to be ready by watching the price moves because we never know if the price will go down or go up this day.
6998  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Would you try to accumulate now that there is a token pump? on: August 27, 2020, 07:52:36 AM
Let's say you have bought a token for about 1000 satoshis and weeks ago you found out the token is just about 100 satoshis. This means you already lost a lot since that time you hold it.

Now that it started to pump like from 100 sat to 150 sats, would you try to dump and wait again for its dump to at least 120 satoshis to buy back or just keep holding til you profit up to more than 1000 satoshis?

If you still have money, you can buy back at a lower price, but you can also wait for longer until the price can back at least to the price that you bought. It will depend on what strategy you use because you can ignore to buy that token at a low price instead of waiting for the price increase. Besides the strategy you use, that will depend on the token itself because we will buy back at a lower price if we are sure that the token can increase more than the price you purchased.

I have those experiences with some new coins. I thought that I already buy at a low price, so I don't do anything and wait for the price increase. But suddenly, the coin price drops too deep, and after I wait for a while, the coin has an update, so I think the coin can increase higher. I decide to buy back for some amount and still hold the price increase.

Just a feeling I have. It's all credit cards and dollars and shit.

Yeah, I'd rather spend the shit money and save my bitcoins, but I can't wait until I can use real money everywhere. I'd rather get paid in bitcoin and spend bitcoin.

Be patient because we are still waiting for that. You don't have to use credit cards, but you can use dollars/fiat money. But I prefer to still use dollars/fiat money for now than to use bitcoin because making a transaction is too high, and sometimes we need to wait for some time before it's completed. Besides that, I can save my bitcoin and sell it once the price touches the highest price by using fiat money. Bitcoin is an investment for me, but it is also a way to make fiat money, so I think we need to give more time for bitcoin before it can accept in all countries, and bitcoin can be used to make a transaction.

It is very important to always communicate with children and provide good or positive and useful things according to their age, and to be supervised when children play with cellphones or other devices and check them.
At present many gambling sites do not have a good level of security and there are many other sites that can damage and affect their mind which should not be done because they are not old enough, and still pay attention to their associations because children's minds are still very impressionable and have curiosity and try .

But we don't have to force them to communicate because we need to give them space to have their privacy, especially when our kids are a teenager. But we always supervised them, even if they don't know that, so if something happens to them, and they need to say something, we always beside them.

If they still kids, we can apply a strict mode in their mobile phone, so when they click links on their phone, the links will not redirect to the destination website. That can prevent them from visiting on a strange website, including preventing them from knowing gambling or porn. Supervised kids will need a big effort because their minds still like a white paper, which is clean.
