701  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why lots of people got scam easily on: October 09, 2019, 03:25:23 PM
I completely agree with you that is true. Basically, newcomers fall into such a trap of scammers who do not understand how risky it is to invest money in an unverified project and, of course, this is greed. When investing, there is always a risk of being left without the money that you invested in the project.

Even if you warn newbies not to invest on a project they will still do it thinking that you want to block them from making it big Tongue, they always like or prefer to learn the hard ways, once they get scammed they will start putting blames on bitcoin, saying its scam and the ones who wants to learn will learn from their mistakes and try to avoid same thing next time
It still need for newbies to experience this such horrible things because this is where they learn, what I mean is that sometimes we shouldn't tell them what to do and they must learn it through themselves. It is not being a harsh to them all I want for them is to discover their mistake and learn from it, through this process their experience will be fruitful. Before entering this industry you must have an enough knowledge, anticipate that in your first time here will be not in your favor and as the time passing by you'll learn and will become successful.

I am looking only for the best and secure options.
 

Thanks  Smiley
Actually there's a lot ways to earn bitcoin there are full of risk and there are not but not that profitable. Here are the some way to earn:
*Investment
*Trading
*Bounty and Signature campaign
*Airdrop and more.
The only things I enumerate are the ways how I earn bitcoin. For now I currently unto long term investment. I am the kind of person who don't have a time for monitoring the movement of the market all the time due to some businesses hence, I choose to hold and wait for the next uptrend.
703  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online Poker vs Live Casino Poker on: October 09, 2019, 02:13:15 PM
Well, I experienced this yesterday. My friend and I decided to gamble at a live casino and he gamble there in poker and sit on the table.
I have an idea in player poker in Online casino but I did not try to play in Live casino. At that moment while watching him playing I think it is very easy to identify your opponent's faces and defeat than in online gambling casinos.

Which do you prefer to gamble poker in an online casino or in live casinos?

Indeed, can you consider that Live casinos is have an advantage over online casinos?
Of course it is still better to play at live since you can feel the presence of your opponents rather than facing to your opponent in a monitor. Actually, it depends on the player, if player prefert to play without getting out in his room or comfort place then online casino will be best choice for him. The advantages of online casino is that it is not limited for the users, I mean there are some country prohibits this kind of activity hence online could be better to keep away from being traced.
704  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why Crypto Marketet Is Dumping Drastically !! on: October 09, 2019, 01:48:44 PM
Honestly, there's no one can actually can give a certain reason why market is dumping. We have all different speculation why is thing happening but no one can explain. The movement of crypto market is unpredictable yet we can't find the reason behind it. Instead of finding the truth behind this phenomenon it is better to monitor it so we can adapt for a single amount of time.
705  Economy / Speculation / Re: Are you guys ok if BTC ends in the 10k USD range at the end of 2019? on: October 09, 2019, 01:15:14 PM
Guys, as we are seeing, we are in a 10k USD range for some time, are you ok if we end this year with this price?

For me, I'm happy because we started the year in a very low price, and BTC reached 13k, falled to 10k and here we are, but the most importart for me it's the stability, it's good to hold the price for some time, without need to worry
I confess that 12k USD will be very, very good  Grin Grin Grin
Absolutely yes, I think 10K usd range is enough for this year, I don't think that it would be more than that like around 15K usd anyway. Just like you I'd still prefer to hold my savings rather than to make a transaction. I'd only make a move if it'll hit $20K just like before or more because that would be a hella big return for me.
706  Economy / Economics / Re: How can we get people to use bitcoin as a currency? on: October 09, 2019, 12:47:16 PM
In order to get people to use Bitcoin you will have to start it with its advantages the convenience of using it as payment method specially sending funds overseas, it operates 24/7 unlike banks etc. Second you will start telling them about its disadvantages, the price is unstable and you can only use with internet etc. Through simple information they can decide whether to engage or not. 
Do you think persuading people to follow such a traditional approach really works? My answer is probably not even if you explain for hours, even every day, the elements and features you mention will still not make people use bitcoin as a currency because it is so clear that the best way to use bitcoin is to invest, the internet provides too full information about profits through bitcoin. Another reason that will not make people use bitcoin as currency is that the surrounding facilities probably do not support, from retailers to the government.
You have a point. For me bitcoin would be better use for online transaction like Trading and Investment due to the reason of volatility. It is not bad as well to use bitcoin for medium of exchange since it is versatile however due to volatility behavior it won't work well. Anyway, for people to accept bitcoin as a currency it should be acknowledge by the government first because no matter how you promulgate the bitcoin from people as long as government prohibits the usage it stil useless.
707  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: short term or long term investing on: October 08, 2019, 04:02:32 PM
for the long-term investment, you need to be rich first lol. if you're poor like me you need to take your steps for short-term (sad but true)

we are not in a position like holding 100 btc for 10 years. you need to gain your cryptocurrencies and need to consume these asap to live your life, at least, in these market situations we need to act like that. because most cryptocurrencies prices are the same and do not increase much more. so it makes no sense to hold them for investment. but you can hold your tokens if bull-run starts btw.
Well, that is the sad reality. Honestly its depend on your choice, you can still go for long term investment even if you have only small capital but expect the profit will not be that high. Shorterm-investment, on the other hand, has a chance that will give you an enough profit but the problem is that in given short time there's a chance that uptrend won't come and it will leave no choice for you to wait or else this will be a loss for you so technically this will become a long-term investment.
708  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Which one you buy Bitcoin or Ethereum? on: October 08, 2019, 03:34:27 PM
Yesterday the price of Bitcoin was $9700 and today the price is $8500. Yesterday the price of Ethereum is $200 and today the price is $170. So which coin is prefer to buy?
You should definitely go for both of them since these two coins are really profitable. More likely they are the king and the queen in industry. They have the biggest volume among all crypto coins yet most volatile. Basically, these two will provide high return/profit, especially on long term investment. Moreover, one rule of trading is that don't put all the eggs in one basket. Through diversification, your investment will make more safe and secure or earn more profit by chance.
709  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The secret of gambling? on: October 08, 2019, 03:07:17 PM
After playing gambling games hundreds of times, without much effort in winning substantial profits at all, it makes me wonder what could be the secret of gambling? Personally, I find myself comfortable playing crypto-based gambling games, because of their greater level of accessibility than traditional games. I believe that gambling games which use cryptocurrencies and Blockchain tech, are much fairer than traditional ones within the mainstream world. Yet, you tend to lose more money than you've initially invested into a gambling game.

Which is why, I'm deeply curious to know if there's actually a secret within gambling that would allow me to win more than losing? Any thoughts about this will be greatly appreciated. Smiley
I think there's no such secret in gambling maybe you referring to luck, learning to handle your emotions or strategies. Secret is something important we need to take care right? and the only thing I can think of most important in gambling is to control the emotions together with luck because without this thing you will never able to handle the gameplay very well. You could lose your cool and lose your capital as well if you get carried away by your emotions so we need to be aware of it, and it could lead to addiction if it is not being handled.
710  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Trading, ICO, Lending, Bounty. Which one should I do ? on: October 08, 2019, 02:34:03 PM
Dear friend,
So far, I know for kind of earning money from bitcoin and altcoins.
I start trading when bitcoin 17000. until now, I lost a haft of money.
ICO I have win any ICO. But  I did not invest to much.
Lending I think have not join anyone. But I think in the first time you can get profit from lending. But no more later.
And now, bounty, I still reading and research information about it. No one help or support. One day, hundreds of campaign public. But dont know which one scam or good.
I am distempered. Need more advice from you here Smiley

I think I would go for trading simply because trading is really more profitable compared to the others. ICO is out of the question because most of them are now not effective unlike it was before. Bounty could be a good option but it is tough to find a good one among the sea of helpless projects. But if you find one then it is good, I think in choosing a promising bounty is a matter of luck.
You seem unfortunate in doing a trad so I think holding your remaining balance would be a better option and wait for the uptrend, it is guaranteed that it will give a high return.
711  Economy / Speculation / Re: What you expect about next move of bitcoin? on: October 08, 2019, 02:12:32 PM
I read a lot of posts talking about expected price of BTC next few months, there are those who are expected to rise by the end of this year, but many expect Bitcoin to decline, as I read at least 6000 what you think?
The only thing you can do is to speculate what the price would be in the next few months and if anyone tell you that they are certain how the market will perform i can guarantee that they are lying. No one knows exactly how the market will perform and you can speculate how the market should be at a certain point. Earlier the market used to move according to the FUD news more often but now those fluctuation are not that visible. Invest for the long term and do not panic even if you see a minor correction as the market will always recover in the long term.
Exactly. You shouldn't believe in any mere speculations, anyone could make one you and even me but it should only stay it as speculation nevertheless. No one can exactly predict how bitcoins behave so it is better if we could just observe the market and learn to adapt in a single amount of time, make some analysis if possible or trading plan. Just remember not to be panic and extend your patience.
712  Economy / Economics / Re: Why Bitcoin is not that good as currency? on: October 08, 2019, 01:51:36 PM
Bitcoin is good as currency with faster and easy for transfer your bitcoin from one wallet to other wallet around the world, if use your money maybe little difficult if sending money to other country and take several day for sent it, with using bitcoin or altcoin just take several minutes your payment have been sent.

Transaction wise it is good since it is faster but one of the main problem is how stable its value now was since there's a great increase in its price from the beginning up to now. This is a foreseeable risk for every business planning to use bitcoin as a method of payment because it may put them into disadvantage in some situations though there might be some instance that they can profit from it.
The volatility indeed will be a problem in using bitcoin as a normal currency like fiat. It is hard to imagine if bitcoin will be used in a transaction and then the sudden movement will occur. We are not ready yet to use bitcoin as a normal currency due to some complications so I think it is better if we will use it for a profitable transaction such as trading and investment since the volatility is perfect for this industry.
713  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What's going on with BTC? on: October 08, 2019, 01:28:27 PM
These guys say that BTC is going up thanks to apps such as Lolli and CasaHodl which have helped to accumulate and simplify the process of being a bitcoin market participant. https://cryptotradernews.com/cryptocurrency/why-is-the-price-of-btc-rising/

Any other explanations as to what's causing this BTC upsurge?


It was a bitcoin price pump by the whales and exchanges to attract people and institutional investors. Too bad the bitcoin price is falling down at the moment perhaps it is the market correction to stabilize the bitcoin price eventually. The way we're seeing the market is not looking so good but we never know what will happen tomorrow whether good or bad.
Therefore, it’s better to buy Bitcoin gradually, I’m buying Bitcoin when there is free money. I try to do this at least once a month. But I also buy Ethereum, because this coin is growing in trading volumes every day.
It is a good option to buy these two promisings coins especially bitcoin because it has a high potential that would give a high return. Actually you can buy bitcoin whenever time you want since bitcoin is very volatile so even if you buy at high price you can still earn a profit it goes higher. In this type of market, patience and adaptation are really mattered because there are times that uptrend will take time, there are times that it will increase and surprise you up. The market is really unpredictable that is why we need to monitor it all the time.
714  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Smart hodling vs just hodling on: October 07, 2019, 02:06:48 PM
Maybe people who do buy and hold and back up is kind of smart holder. Because from what i see, while i only hold my bitcoin without do anything, some of my friend do it. He said that if he buy in cheaper price, it is like martingale strategy in trading.
Yeah, I do that too, I just hold my Bitcoin without doing anything. Because I am a person who works from morning till night so I do not have time to monitor charts in the market, I'm just waiting for the moment the Pump arrives, I believe what I do is the best for my mind and health. I don't need to do anything, just hold.
Same as you pal, I prefer to hold my bitcoin and doing nothing since I don't have time to check the market since I got a lot of things to do. Besides, I don't want to spend my bitcoins because the market is bleeding, it is better if I'd just stay put my holdings rather than to purchase some coins that without guarantee of getting a high return.
715  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: In what ways Bitcoin is different from traditional currencies? on: October 07, 2019, 12:39:36 PM
Bitcoin can be used to pay for things electronically if both parties are willing. In that sense, it’s like conventional dollars, euros, or yen, which are also traded digitally.

                                 But is it differs from fiat digital currencies in several important ways?
It only differa from fiat is that Bitcoin could be use as an asset for investment and for trading because of volatility characteristic it have. Bitcoin can give a high return if it is being stored for such a long time unlike fiat.
Next is that the transaction in fiat can be tracked down unlilke bitcoin who is anonymous. Bitcoin is decentralize so it cannot be manipulate by government.
716  Economy / Speculation / Re: How to predict Bit coin price. on: October 07, 2019, 11:31:06 AM
Any body here now how to predict bitcoin price. Or is there a hint how when to buy and when to sell bit coins. Or how to make profits on buying and selling bitcoins.? I want to try buying and selling crypto currency.
Frankly, there's no way you can predict bitcoin and if it possible then probably we are all rich now. If you were in the year of 2009 and you anticipate how much price it would become then it would be really good however, it wasn't impossible to learn to have a speculation. Learn how to be versatile because market is dynamic.
717  Economy / Economics / Re: What's it like to live on crypto instead of Banks? on: October 07, 2019, 09:35:01 AM
Imagine living your life without depending on Banks ever again. Using only cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin or Ethereum, you can make your own income stream and use the coins earned to buy stuff from merchants who accept them. Every day, cryptocurrencies have been going closer towards full mainstream adoption. However, there are still some things which prevent crypto from being used over traditional payment systems we've been accustomed to for a long time.

Nonetheless, what's it like to live only on crypto instead central-bank issued fiat money? Cheesy
First of all living without having a connection in any bank seems impossible especially living in this era. Using only a crypocurriencies upon making a transaction seems also impossoble because majority of the market whether it is online or not they aren't ready yet to accept this type of currencies and one of the reason is that government restrict this currency.
718  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Dealing with cryptocurrency (in my country) isn't easy as I thought on: October 07, 2019, 02:35:17 AM
Feel sorry for you, but this was the worst thing a government could do about bitcoin. It seems they are totally opposing the use of bitcoin. It would be very difficult for you or for your friend to even made your bitcoin or your cryptocurrency be a money, is there any other way in your country cashing out besides to such banks? If there will be, then I suggest that from now on use those opportunities to cash out, may be to cash in as well. Or better, live in the other country.
Migrating in other country seems expensive but I think that could be the best solution. If your govenment despise the bitcoin then there's nothing we can do about it and they will just accept if it will be used throughout the world. We can blame them since they saw it as competitors hence they banned it as for countermeasure.
Now, if you migrate in other country where crypto is available then you could earn back what you've invested.
719  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A cryptocurrency entirely dedicated to GAMBLING? on: October 06, 2019, 09:01:46 AM
An idea came onto my mind, and it consists about a currency that is entirely dedicated onto gambling and also betting, I did not search through the web if there is actually a crypto that has done this. Gambling is a thing that the people love to do, whether if it is in the casino or online, but have you ever thought of a crypto that will serve as your main currency whether if it is in the casino or it is on online, I think this could also be beneficial for the gamblers as well, I wanna know about what you think of my idea, whether if it is a positive or negative opinion, I will still take it.
Nope, cryptocurrency isn't dedicated to gambling however, there are some coins that are made just only for Gambling. It just happens that crypto is almost perfect for online gambling in terms of anonymity for example, your transaction won't be traced since you were using crypto. Cryptocurrencies are versatile, it can be used in any transaction such as trading, investment, and even gambling.
720  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Buying goods or services using crypto on: October 06, 2019, 08:40:45 AM
as we've been in a state of bear-trend for almost a year, i'm trying to find another usage of my eth and btc except hodling. do you know any real working crypto-marketplaces? probably it's not a bad option and i would find something really worthful to buy without any doubts of being scammed. kindly waiting for your feedback
You could just have to buy some stuff that will please you or convert it into fiat and placing it on a bank or buy a house(if you have enough amount). However, it still better if we will just leave it because if uptrend comes I am pretty sure you could buy even more stuffs if you got your profit, all you need is more patience. It is better if you will use fiat for now and avoid using BTC and ETH as possible because we don't know when it will make a move.
