701  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to make cash without investing? on: September 10, 2018, 06:32:45 AM
How can I earn cash without investing? Can I earn a thousand dollars without investing or buying first?

Investing have different meaning depends on where you are going to use it. Investing could be a money or investing intangible things like your time, efforts, and hard works. To answer your question, yes you could earn your first thousand dollars even if you are not investing money, but investing the other way around. Bounty hunting is one of the best way so far for me for you to earn that amount of money.

Though it is not going to be a thousand dollars as always, earnings in bounties are not consistent or fixed so don't expect that you could earn the amount of money you have mentioned all of the time.
702  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will Ethreum bounce back ? on: September 09, 2018, 01:22:15 PM
Will Ethreum voice back like it did last year or else we are having false expectations about recovery of ethreum when we know the fact that crypto currency has become so unpredictable nowadays ? Kindly share your responses as downfall of ETH has become talk of the town.

As of now we can't tell if Ethereum is going to make another ATH(All Time High) before this year ends because there is a lot of negative news about it. We could only hodl our Ethereum if we are not happy about its price right now, hopefully Ethereum price would recover soon. Maybe there will be a huge come back that is going to happen again in the market about of being so bloody, we can never tell what could happen in the future.

Cryptocurrencies nature is pump and dump from time to time, it could be a disadvantage and advantage at the same time, Ethereum is a great coin and I think it will skyrocket again soo, let's just wait for that Smiley

704  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Benefits of gambling? Yes - it exists! on: September 06, 2018, 02:50:27 AM
Playing the dice game is a great way to pass the time, and if you play it conservatively you cant lose all your money.
Its nice that I can roll the dice and only risk a few cents- instead of when I bet sports and there is a few mbtc minimum (chance to lose more).

Totally agree that you get more playtime for your money, but i think a lot of players like the thrills of playing slots with Crypto and hope to get to the bonus rounds where they can get up to 1000x bet.  But of course its also a really easy way to loose your money fast. however you should never bet for more money than you can afford to loose.
That last part says it all. Everyone can decide to have their own reason for gambling, which a lot of people are doing it for the possibility of winning some huge money at the end, some because they said they want to have some fun and so on and so forth.
What is important is to understand that as long as gambling is concerned, the chances of losing is still pretty high and better to keep that at the back of the mind than getting to find out the hard way.

In as much as people can understand that last part and put it at the back of their mind, I guess we will end up having a sane world of gambling. I know a lot of fun can be had in real casinos anyway to discard the mentality of winning at all cost, but for online gambling, I would say it is not necessarily the case.

A lot of people have ended up finding it the hard way because they could not control themselves and that is where the main problem starts for them. So, in a way, benefit can only be applicable to those who really are having fun, the casino owners and the government.

The other reason why other addicted people are not quitting gambling even if they are losing is because of this kind of post. I'm not saying that it is bad, but I hope you know guys that posting positive things about gambling could be bad for others, not all of us who tried gambling always win, sadly it is the other way around. Even though there are still reminders you have said that it depends on how we are going to understand the risk we are facing in gambling, still, it is not enough for someone to win in gambling.

Benefits in gambling only existed to those who are winning, or who are lucky playing gambling, but it is a curse to those people who joined gambling just because of a mindset that he could win, he could do what other could do(which is to win in gambling)
705  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Gambling addiction a disease? on: September 06, 2018, 02:06:49 AM
I am not really a gambler but I heard about people who can't quit it and keep losing lots of money. Do you think the attitude to gambling addiction should be the same as to drug addiction?
Should the government forbid gambling and treat somehow those who are addicted?
Or maybe it should be left up to an adult? I mean, should people decide on their own whether they need to gamble or not.
What do you think?

No, because it won't kill people just like drugs. At least, not directly. And gambling is easier to stop, not like drug addiction who needs a rehabilitation to stop it.

Not all of the disease could kill us, there are diseases that are not curable but is treatable, and it goes the same to gambling addiction. Gambling addiction is a disease where we found ourselves playing gambling over and over again after losing for so many times already. It is a part of gambling addict's life, a day won't pass by that they are not playing gambling, it is one of their daily routine so eliminating it from them would be tough.

It might not literally kill you, but it might be the reason someday why you will be dead. Maybe you'll starve to death because you don't have money anymore, or maybe you'll get killed because someone has an urge to kill you because you don't pay your debt.
706  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To quit gambling is to quit yourself on: September 06, 2018, 01:20:18 AM
Gambling is a addiction bad addiction. Few days ago I see a user lost 65BTC and another user 30BTC amd another user 12BTC in a dice site. All those user lost huge huge within 24 hours.

But even if we say that it is a bad addiction, a lot of people are still gambling despite the fact that it will really bring you down to the pit. Regret and depression is one of the most popular effect of gambling to people.

Also, these gambler might be rich so they have nothing to worry about those losses. We don't know what they are thinking losing that great amount to the site but all we know is that they had lost and it is hard to get that back.
I always noticed that greater number of gambler in casinos are that of poor people. Reach people also play gambling but their number is less as compare to rich people. I think that the only reason is that is disappointment and joblessness, which compel people to start plying gambling, from where they can see a chance to make big money in short time but it is very rate and most of the people instead of making some money they lose their own money.

There's a reason why people are poor and why people are rich.

Poor people keeps on gambling because they are hoping that one day. Some of them keeps on gambling because they simply have nothing better to do. They gamble just to let the time pass. They gamble because it's an entertainment for them even if the money they are losing could have been their lunch tomorrow.

Rich people, on the other hand, has tons of things to do. They are busy socializing with other rich people. They are busy building their own empire. And they do not feel compelled to gamble simply because they know how money works, and they know how to make money work for them. I've talked to a lot of rich people and they all seem to be very busy. They are very competitive and in order to be relevant in their field, they have to always be active. They literally have no time for gambling. They'd rather sleep and relax instead of gamble.

Now that you know this information, would you rather gamble or would you rather use that time making the best out of your life by being the best version of yourself? Gambling's a waste of money and time. Most people are not even having fun when they are gambling.

This is the truth that they can't accept. People have different insecurities, it could be insecurities in a positive way or the other way around, but most of the poor people are insecure because they know someone who is better in gambling and suddenly they wanted to play gambling too, believing that they could make fortune out of it just like the other people they know who got rich in gambling. The point is no matter how you slap the truth on their faces, they just won't budge.

Even though they know the sad truth that they can't win, they are not going to quit gambling, it is like they accepted that it is their fate to be miserable in life, and it is stupid to be that way, there is always a light after the storm, but it seems that weak people don't understand that, they intend to give up instead of fighting back for their own good.
707  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: thinking quiting after lose on gambling. on: September 05, 2018, 05:18:13 PM
do you experience that after losing on gambling that you thinking you will quit gambling for good and never come again to gambling but then next day you are already positive  that you could win in gambling?

that happen to me a lot when i lose in gambling but a could never leave gambling. Cheesy
Well, I am also included like you, because the feeling of wanting to stop gambling is very difficult, and when I lost my gamble, the next day I came back to play because I was curious I wanted to win the game and return my lost bets.
so I think I've felt addicted to gambling and it's very difficult to avoid because losing money or property can happen if it continues

When you know you are addicted on gambling, it is not advisable to make a full stop because you'll stress yourself out. Make a plan first, a step by step plan to quit gambling for good, by that, you are enjoying while you are slowly getting out of the gambling world. That kind of response that you have said, coming back the next day after you lost is a stupid thing to do, you are spoiling yourself.

You are feeding your greediness which is a bad thing, if it gets worst, you are not just going to be addicted, you might also starts to dedicate your life in gambling, you'll sleep at night thinking about gambling and wake up in the morning thinking about the same thing over and over again.
708  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Wallets for altcoins on: September 05, 2018, 04:48:42 PM
according to me myetherwallet is the most ideal wallet on crypto currency exchanges. I have been using it for a long time without any problems. I would recommend other investors.

I'm also a user of that wallet since 2017 when I started joining Altcoin bounties. The advantage of this wallet is that most of the ERC20 tokens are supported by this wallet. The disadvantages of this wallet are:

1. When you are going to open your wallet using your private key, you could accidentally paste it somewhere(mostly it happens when filling up the application form when joining bounties) or even in your group chat.
2. There are phising sites for this wallet, since this is online and just a web wallets, it is very prone to hackers.
3. It could be deleted by someone who is a genius in computer, I mean this whole wallet could be take down like gone forever---with your tokens.

So it is up to you if you wanted to take the risk, but it depends on the user though, if you are careless then your tokens could be stole by someone. You could buy a hardware wallet for more security, just a little bit expensive.
709  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Why you should take bounty campaign seriously on: September 05, 2018, 02:22:33 PM
This discussion is not to generalize the idea of taking bounty serious by everyone but for those that need to.

I see lots of people who say I can't do only bounty campaign as a full term work, of course no one should do that if you have lots of other alternatives, but if you don't, it will do well to utilize the available time and make as much profit as you can make from bounty campaign doing it as it is your only employed job until you can even raise cash to start your own business, because some of the organizations we even aim to work don't even pay you like bounty campaign and other times we get employed to do similar works just like what you do while running bounty campaign.

Feel free to share your opinion too


The majority of my friends didn't finish college or even secondary school but they are earning well on this forum by joining bounty, they are bounty hunters like you---all of us here, the only difference is that they are doing it full time because they don't want to find a job, they don't want to waste this kind of opportunity to earn big compare if you will become an employee.

You'll go the office, work for 8 hours but your salary is not even worth for the efforts and hard works you are contributing to that certain company. My mindset is just like theirs, I'm not focusing that much on school to the point that I'm studying all day about school works, I'm focusing more on this forum because every seconds I spent here means a great opportunity to earn money.
710  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: I have received some tokens. Should I sell or hold? on: September 05, 2018, 11:30:17 AM
I am a full time bounty hunter. But I am not good at making decisions. Because recently I have received some tokens from a bounty campaign. Now I am really confused about, should I sell the tokens or should I hold them for the price to be a rise?

Note: The token company is saying that the price will go higher. On the other hand, some experts are saying that the token is not good enough to go higher price. What should I do?

I would say sell the half of the tokens you've received and hodl the remaining half, that way you are not going to regret your decisions because half could be right and the other half could be wrong. It would be good if you mentioned what tokens you are talking about so we could give you another further advice for that, if the project is great, the team is big, and they have raised bigger funds in just a small period of time.

Then holding your tokens would be a great idea without a doubt. The final decision is yours to be made. You could also consider the way "Sell high, buy low" if you are going to do Day Trading for more profits.
711  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Advantage of BITCOIN on: September 05, 2018, 08:05:24 AM
Its being reliable for the long term holding is greates plus of BTC for my opinion. It is  nice to have a coin which will bring you money anyway in the future.

Yes it is, nothing more nothing less. Investing in bitcoin is the most safe way of earning money, even if you are sleeping you have the assuring feeling that your money won't go anywhere, you have the assurance that it could give you the profits you've been looking for that you can't find on other coins. Bitcoin gives us the opportunity to become a money earner anytime, even if we are just minor, we could earn cryptocurrency such as bitcoin.

And not just an earner, a big amount of money we could earn in bitcoin is the thing we can't do in fiat, for example, we could process transactions a lot more faster than using fiat, we could be self-assured that we are completely anonymous when we are using bitcoin compare using fiat.
712  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Investment or free? on: September 05, 2018, 06:37:12 AM
I would do both, free tokens from airdrop and I will invest some of my time on bounty, taking the risk is always the key to success. Nothing will happen to us if we are going to be a coward for the rest of our lives being afraid to try something out because we are afraid that we might lose something, life is a gambling, you have to risk something in order to find out what is going to happen next in your journey.

As a member on this forum also a bounty hunter, it is a part of our existence to experience different things either good or bad, getting scam is not bad, it depends on how we are going to see things, positively or negatively, just like the saying says experience is the best teacher.
713  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Does auto trading bot make good profit ? on: September 04, 2018, 05:46:57 PM
Does automated Bitcoin or other crypto currency trading bot can make some good benefits ? Is it good to use it ? What is the best bot ?

Trading is not for lazy people, using bot could not guarantee you that you are going to make profits with that, it could be the worst case scenario that might happen. The biggest question is why bother using bot if you could Trade by yourself, using your own technique or knowledge is more reliable in my opinion that those bots out there, also, you will look like a fool if you are going to blame a bot if you lose your profits because of it.

Bots are not that bad in some cases like in gambling, most of my friends are using bot in gambling so that they could multitasking to earn more money and it is effective, but not in Trading.
714  Economy / Economics / Re: How did Crypto help you out? on: September 04, 2018, 03:29:23 PM
Cryptocurrency is a money online or virtual money which is much easier to earn than fiat, so technically it could help anyone as long as he have a gadget and internet. there is also no requirements like Diploma, Resume, and other educational background for you to earn Cryptocurrencies. I've started here in this forum way back on year 2016, a newbie exploring this forum to gather all of the information that I needed to earn Bitcoins(because most of the signature campaigns back then was paying bitcoins as your salary every week)


I've earned .1 BTC I guess in 4 months but the price of bitcoin in the year 2016 was like around $500-$600 if I'm not mistaken, I could proudly say that bitcoin helped me in my financial needs and it became my stepping stone to my success, and I'm very thankful ever since because of Cryptocurrency(which were introduced by a friend), also thanks to Almighty God.
715  Economy / Economics / Re: how to save money? on: September 04, 2018, 01:57:12 PM
Good question, hardly possible nowadays. Just dont buy useless stuff, branded stuff.

Related question, possible to keep your savings in crypto (or tokens)? Thoughts?

It is possible, but it depends on the daily needs of a certain person, I mean if his salary is not that big and he is paying too many monthly bills then I'm afraid he can't invest his savings in cryptocurrency because it might be a high risk for him. But if he is earning above average then it is possible, but, it a must that he knows about cryptocurrency or else he will just lose his money.

We could also open a bank account if we are not interested in cryptocurrency(since mostly we are used on fiat) or an ATM card, and so on because cash could be easily spend if we are not going to budget it.
716  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why are you selling your altcoins so soon? on: September 04, 2018, 12:33:53 PM
Actually, sooner or later it's relative. The benchmark is not about the time span, but the range of price changes. If the coin has the potential to rise, the development and teamwork are good, then I will hold it, otherwise, if the potential is low and prices tend to not develop then I usually sell it partially.

Precisely. There is no point to hold the tokens that we know that have no potential at all, holding it will just make us regret because we missed the opportunity to sell it when its price is still on its peak. The most common reason why people are selling their coins is because they needed the money or they just have the intuition to sell it, the outcome might either good or the other way around.

However, the other reason why other people are selling their coins even if the market is on the bearish trend is because they are the whales, they wanted to shake the market, for other people to panick and sell their coins so it will become their profits when they buy back.
717  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: It is hard to detect scammed bounty campaign.. on: September 04, 2018, 10:39:46 AM
Actually it is hard to identify if a certain bounty is a scam or not, they will make it obvious that their bounty is just a scam. It is like a thief, you won't see them coming at night stealing things at your house, you'll just know it when you look something in your house and you can't find it in the place where you hide it, same goes to a scam bounty campaign, you'll just know it after their ICO.

Mostly of the bounty campaign that I've encountered that are scams are those who have a smaller community, always extending the due date of their payment, and tokens are in a exchange.
718  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: With how much should i start on: September 04, 2018, 08:35:18 AM
For me I started with nothing at first. I joined a lot of bounty campaigns and the rewards I got from them were the ones I use to start trading. Maybe if you have the money to spend you can start small first and get the hang of it. Then you can start to go bigger once you get used to trading.

You are right, I guess most of the people here get the money they are using in Trading in their salary on the bounty campaign they have joined, it is an alternative way if you really wanted to Trade but you don't have the money, you could also Trade the tokens that you could earn in any bounty. But if OP have the money, it is better if he is going to start on a big amount, buy the top coins next to bitcoin, it is a safe way because there is no doubt he could make profits to those coins.

Ethereum is the first one I recommend you guys to buy if you are just started trading, it is a sure win, and as a beginner of course I know that you didn't know how to find out what coins are good to be buy for you to use it on Trading.
719  Economy / Economics / Re: Friends reactions to crypto currencies? on: September 03, 2018, 04:43:38 PM
I was questioned on crypto currencies legalization. I explained the facts happening around. Few received it with convincing reactions and few just ignored it. I really felt bad for the guys who did not care about crypto currencies as I really know the fruitfulness? I happily taught few others about crypto currencies. What was your friends expression when you introduced bitcoin to them?

Cryptocurrency thing is still not sinking on their mind, who could blame them, we've been living our entire life using fiat. I introduced cryptocurrency to my friends and family, to my friends, some of them ignored me and doubt the fact what I have told them about cryptocurrency, to my family, they all doubted about it saying that maybe it is just a scam, I should watch out because my money could be at risk and so many negative feedbacks from them.

I didn't listen to them, I ignore their opinions like what they did when I explained the whole thing to them. I know what I'm doing and I don't need negative people's opinion in my life, that will just going to bring me down instead of helping me to have a better future.
720  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Where do you find interesting ICO ? on: September 03, 2018, 01:02:51 PM
the best place for watchig different icos is bitcointalk. i do not trust ratings. any project can buy good feedbacks.

I don't think so, because not all of the ICO's here in this forum are good, to be honest finding a great project is a hard thing to do. Mostly of the bounties that you could find here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=238.0 is not that good, and not too many compare if you are going to look here https://icobench.com/ But still you can't just find a diamond in a middle of the forest, you have to look for it patiently and enthusiastically.


You have to do a lot of research and background checking of a certain project before you convince yourself that it is good and worth to give a try.
