main rule in finance is do not put all eggs in one basket. diversify your portfolio. you can invest them in bitcoin and other legit projects. but you got to do your own due diligence.

i am agree with this, we need to spread our money in many investment type but we need to select only the best investment programs because there is many programs that waiting us to stolen our money. but i think, we can hold our bitcoin in my wallet and its recommended investment that we can do until we see the price is up and we can sell it.
Well, that is the way how to manage our investment, though we are too confident with our investment but let's not forget that the risk is there. We do not hold the future and anything could happen which is beyond our control anymore. With investment, it could give us a chance to grow our money but for me, let us do it in a safe way by slowly growing our money but in a consistent way.

I don't like bitcoin bank, Even the community in bitcoin world don't like it too, because we are decentralized not centralized
You got it dude!..Decentralization is best features of Bitcoin if they make a bank of Bitcoin the decentralization feature will erase.And the bank they can controlled the market growth of Bitcoin.
Therefore I am sure we will not support a bitcoin bank, we love the decentralized feature of bitcoin as we can go along with our transaction without consulting a third party. This is what we value as bitcoin supporters and enthusiast, we love the current system and I don't think any changes would give any improvement to bitcoin. What I like to see in the future is the bank to accept bitcoin as deposits.
7363  Economy / Speculation / Re: Sell or wait? on: February 16, 2017, 03:23:31 AM
Don't be stupid and wait. Now it's the best time to buy.
BTC won't drop to even $800 anymore.
At the end of 2017 the price would be $2000 and each year for the couple next will rise to 150%.

That's pretty bold, actually I'm expecting quite a bit of a roller coaster this year. $2000 is attainable, but maybe after the next halving.
Why not this year? We have a good start and that can be a good basis that we can achieve what has previously done, we are stable at $1,000 now after few dump and for me, that means we are going to another pump until we reach $1,200. In terms of figures, our prediction differs, but one thing is sure, we will not fall back from $1,000 this year.
7364  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Dice game strategy? on: February 16, 2017, 03:04:12 AM
That's right, there is no way to play a dice game with the odds being 50/50. The house make a profit by getting a "fee" in addition to their 49% of the winnings. Sometimes we get lucky but most people lose money. I have had long winning streaks but then the next day I will have a long losing streak and lose everything I gained the previous day.

Even though the odds are against us, I still like playing dice games. I like that we have a chance to win even though we may still lose. The key is to not let it get out of hand. I don't bet with more than I can afford to lose.
That is the basic rule you have to follow if you want to last, gambling is not easy as we think that we can get money and consider this as a source of our income. We have to think that the best way is the safest way, and that is to play it for fun only. Since there is no strategy that would work in the long run, you will never get success if you stick with your intention to be profitable.
7365  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The danger of the cyptocurrencies on: February 15, 2017, 05:08:34 AM
My biggest concern is the hundreds of Alts that have an ICO and then disappear. And scams like Paycoin that take take take and then poof they are gone. I've been happy since switching only to trading BTC. It's the risk that makes it exciting though.
It's cryptocurrency, Too many the ponzi, MLM scheme and what the PBOC has done with the chinese exchange to prevented the growth of the pyramid scheme. Bitcoin is the safe place right now.
The possible actions of the government can already be foreseen, they see the impressive growth of bitcoin and they are alarm about the fact. Hence, they make necessary actions not to prevent bitcoin from growing but to make sure that bitcoin will not be use for illegal activities. In fact, they just want to enforce the exchanges to comply with the AMLA.
7366  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Fortune Jack a Scam or are they Legit? on: February 15, 2017, 04:58:10 AM
What worries you? It seems to be that they are one of the high paying campaign in this forum and if they will turn out to be a scam, they won't pay that big amount to their sig camp participants and that's the time that you cannot pull out your funds to them. Is something wrong on how you play with them? Because I can't see any problem to them.
They won't last in the business for this long if they are scam, you are right they offer great rewards for the campaign but that is not the basis that such site is scam or not. People should not worry when they do not see any complaints with a strong evidence to prove a site is scam, AFAIK, FortuneJack is a legitimate site.
7367  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you Rich from Gambling? on: February 15, 2017, 03:28:20 AM
No one becomes rich in gambling because most of those who experienced from long time gamblers were all losers. However that situation of rich from gambling is a very lucky day of everyone who gambles for money, because if that happened you won in sweepstakes or lottery games online or even fiat lottery offering big jackpot prizes. We can be called rich from gambling if that will happen to our life luckily.
I agree with you . the luck factor is the most important part to gain advantage in the game of gambling. with luck we can become rich. while if it does not have it, we just hope not to become poor.
Who ever made a big profit in gambling they are lucky people. And very few people made money in gambling. I heard in lottery and jackpot people made huge money. Especially in lottery only we have a chance to become rich in one night. But this lucky number will come only person out of millions of people. I don't have time to wait, and I know I will not win. So I don't have any intention to become rich in gambling.   
Lottery is what people are actually hoping that they can win, when you win a lottery, you do not need to gamble anymore as you can already live the life you dream of. But the big question is, what are our chances to win, we must be extremely lucky to win. I don't think it is a good idea to spend money regularly in lottery as you are like flashing your money in the toilet, just consider gambling for fun, we will never gonna be rich.
7368  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling should be considered as a Sickness!! on: February 15, 2017, 03:15:55 AM
Yes for me gambling is a form of addiction when you win you bloodpressure is ok while when you lost your blood pressure is high so i guess play safe in gambling much better to avoid losing because if your an addict then no chance of winning always lost in triple double game. So think gambling is sickness probably.
Gambling can be a addiction but that does not mean that everyone who gambles are an addict.If you are having issues with your blood pressure it is better to consult a doctor  Tongue It all depends upon how much time and money your are spending in a gambling site .The lesser the time more the merry as the possibility of loss will be minimal.
The more you put a bigger amount the more you get thrilled, so when you lose, you will really feel upset and you will have extreme happiness when you win. However, gambling is not for us to give money but to take our money, so that means we will lose most of the time and with lack of self control, we will be having trouble with our health.

~snip~
Hey stop write like that bullsh*t.
Your suggestion about a free coin, we knew ussually free coin only shitcoin or valued/worth at 1 sat, do you think it's a smart way?
i'd like prefer to use btc rather than free coin like your suggestion

He wants to waste his time because he does not want to take bigger risk, there are people who think that there faucets earning can bring them fortune in gambling but the reality is, the chances are very low and it will only happen 1 in million chances. I would not bother to waste my time with faucet actually and just raise a bankroll to gamble and go for the win.
7370  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling problem on: February 14, 2017, 06:05:39 AM
The number one problem in gambling is the addiction on it. Many people wanted to stop gambling but they are having a hard time to do it because they became addicted with gambling. Other problems are they are always losing and ended up with nothing. They don't know when to stop.

Indeed if people can find a way to avoid being addicted to gambling, there will be no more issue with gambling.  This is also one of the reason why Government of some country ban gambling because aside from the possible money laundering, people are also getting addicted resulting to some violence and family problems.

True, I always say addiction of gambling is like a diseases, when we became addicted than gambling also become dangerous for us, than gambling is not only game for us, and in this stage, we have no choice to left it, but gambling don't like to left us, even we want to left it or not.
That's not true, why would we let ourselves be controlled by gambling, we have the option and we can make decision to leave gambling anytime. I think if you reach at that point, you are an addicted gambler who became dependent to it, that is a disease and you need serious help.
7371  Economy / Economics / Re: How many Bitcoin do you have saved? on: February 14, 2017, 05:52:21 AM
It's worse in my case, I'm trying very hard to meet both the ends meet and still I've got only 0.1btc with me, which every day I think of spending or gambling. 
The only solution is to stop gambling, you need to resist that temptation and focus on saving bitcoin. It maybe boring while saving bitcoin but think of the future more, once the value will continue to increase, you will be getting more than what you are expecting.
7372  Economy / Economics / Re: Central of the Philippines Recognizes Bitcoin on: February 14, 2017, 03:47:59 AM
This is really interesting, we are now moving forward to our continuing development of the economy. So I am excited to have our own Bitcoin ATM here in our country. This is a great news ahead of us especially to those who are already involved in BTC and also for those who are still curious, I hope they can now understand and accepts bitcoin as a currency.

We already have our own Bitcoin ATM somewhere in Makati.  It was available since last two years as far as I know.  I don't know if it is still functional since I have not even went where it is to see it for myself.  And in my opinion there is nothing to get excited about this news.  This only means that the exchanges will function like a bank where they need our identities and proof of identities to be able to make a transaction especially converting Bitcoin to local fiat.  And worst, the possibility of imposing tax to all exchange transaction is inevitable.


you have a point mate. and this might be the negative effect too if this will really be push through. the price may pump for a lot might be using bitcoin BUT we will also have to deal with these taxes to be imposed by the banko central as well.
We cannot do anything with that, they saw some great opportunity to increase their tax collections and they should do that. We us citizen of a certain country must comply with the law as no is exempted on it. We have our times and we enjoyed it, and now it's the time where the government will get their fair share.
7373  Economy / Economics / Re: Tell me a secret: any way to earn 0.1 BTC per week? on: February 14, 2017, 03:34:46 AM
it's not a secret actually ,If you browse the forum regularly you can surely find some ways to earn Bitcoin.Your earning amount depends on your skills,If you have some skills like trading, programming, development etc then you will be able to earn more than 0.1 BTC per week.Again, Without investment you can earn up to 0.1 BTC per week by joining a signature campaign.
That is not a realistic number for most users here, since you will probably need to be in the highest paying campaign and your account will need to be legendary to have such a pay and even that may not be possible because it will depend on your commitment to comment in the forum.
I can point you to 5 accounts owned by one person with different signatures but mostly Sr,member and above in the last 5 pages of this thread.
They are committed to post on the forum no doubt but they don't care if they are posting something useful or different or atleast their own opinions in short sentences.
Easily with 5 or more accounts you could earn more than 0.1BTC weekly but at what cost?
I always try to keep my posts as short and useful as I can to avoid wasting people's time.
That is possible but that would not help the forum in general, you are making money but all the ideas are just coming from you. You can enjoy that while you last but the moment you get caught violating the rules, you opportunity to join the signature campaign will be eliminated.
7374  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why we still gambling while we always lose? on: February 13, 2017, 08:01:08 AM
Some people do the same thing all the time as soon they got some money they will think that they will going to win after they lost. If you aim to win back the money after so many losses it will just wreck you. It will not guarantee once you lost something there's a chance that can be recovered in a short time.  
Yeah actually guys think its better to recover the lost money via gambling then by working hard and stop gambling.

I think the moment someone takes a deep breath after loosing money and realize that gambling more will just result in more loss, that moment itself they would stop gambling. And you might be surprised that I am giving such a lesson while I am myself a looser and gamble a lot, so maybe its addiction Tongue
There is no problem of giving advise even if we are addicted to it, that would only say that we care for other people and hope that they will not follow what we are doing. It's a very effective advise as that is based on our experience, so they must take it as a lesson to avoid from experiencing what we are currently dealing.
7375  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is Holding Bitcoin a long time good way to make money? on: February 13, 2017, 07:42:29 AM
It needs time and patience for a long term investments but worth the risk. It's already proven on this years that holding your bitcoin will give you a huge profit. Congratulations for those who hold their bitcoins for a long time, we don't know that this is just the beginning of Bitcoin's Year. It's not too late to buy some bitcoins and hold for a long time and sell it at the right time.
We should not worry about bitcoin. Just be honest, beside the price of bitcoin that tend to up, bitcoin is really usefull and more practical than other payment methods. So I am sure that holding bitcoin is always profitable.
well, you are totally right. I don't know about the holding but using bitcoin is very profitable for those who always use bitcoin, use it in trading, in investment and in their project. basically I mean use bitcoin to increase bitcoin. you can hold one bitcoin and hold for years to price increase and you can make 10 btc with that 1 bitcoin in one year. no choice is yours.
You have to manage it well to grow your bitcoins, it is actually easy to grow the value that growing the volume of bitcoins you have. Trading is a good venture but without decent knowledge you would not be able to succeed, just be careful in trading and be clever all the time. There is a need of proper analyses as not everything you read and hear are real, it could be a wrong information feed to you to make a bad decision.
7376  Economy / Economics / Re: How many Bitcoin do you have saved? on: February 13, 2017, 06:27:50 AM
I have around 150++ btc, bought when price dump to $100

Nice bro. So u have 150 btc bought at 100$ only. If you sell them now you will get 10x profit and you will be
millionaire Smiley   but i suggest to save them and wait for 20x price increase.
If he sold his coins at about 1000 then he will get 150000, that will not make him a millionaire in terms of dollars but it could make you a millionaire in your local currency depending on the exchange between the currencies at the moment he sells.
Time to sell now if you feel you are satisfied with the profit, we will not know what will be the future of bitcoin and even this good price now has a chance to drop and be back with that low amount. That is why timing is everything because this type of investment is very risk, be fore you invest for longer terms, you should make sure you cash a portion of your earnings today.
7377  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: February 13, 2017, 05:53:54 AM
If you left your money in a bank with low interest rates, 10 years from now, the money you left will be buying less of the same thing, lower purchasing power because of inflation. You can't do anything about it because all fiat is designed that way.

So if you care about preserving the value of your wealth, only hold fiat for expenses. The rest of your wealth, you invest in whatever suits you.
Another part of the savings should be put on the emergency fund. This will serve as buffer for when we encounter unexpected situations or when we suddenly lose our jobs. This will help provide for us while we are still looking for new earning opportunities, so we wouldn't have to touch our savings and investments right away.
I guess that is necessary, we have to save for the possible emergencies in the future, we should not let that we will be in desperate need of money due to our failure to save. For me, if you earn, you have to save, and you can do that if you will lessen your expenses and you maximize your income.
While we are young, we have to make an effort to earn as it can also help us to give a capital whenever we start to invest.
7378  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling should be considered as a Sickness!! on: February 11, 2017, 05:35:46 AM
for me gambling becomes a sickness if only you know that you are losing and you still continue to gamble. playing even if you know that you will just lose is a sickness and not a self confidence. you may say it self confidence but if you always lose it will be a sickness even if you know that you are always losing you still continue.

No one continues gambling for just losing more, it is just they want to recover their losses but they don't realize that they are going deeper in that well, and at the time when they come to know that they are drowning, there is no time to react and they find themselves dead (out of funds). After that, everyone says we wont gamble again but after a few days they start again because they are addicted.
That's always the case when gambling. It's always going to be deeper UNLESS you act on it carefully. Be smart in gambling and know that you have some amount you have to take care and know you put hard work in. Don't ever think that it's okay to lose money because it has value, it could've helped some people, but it's a way to earn, so play smart.
It's our money and we should enjoy its value, we can lose but make sure we are having fun. Gambling is not a sickness if you are not doing it in an excessive way as that will be the reason of addiction. Since the winning rate for gamblers in the long run is pretty low, why not accept it and just play for fun.

I guess it would be better if we are just enjoying it than seeking for a method that has never existed.
7379  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Season on: February 11, 2017, 05:18:37 AM
Warriors Vs Grizzlies

Warriors have lost against the Grizzlies twice in this season. The latest loss against Grizzlies comes in a game where Warriors managed to throw away the game after leading by 24 points. I would predict Warriors will play in a more defensive way to keep their defense tight and Kevin Durant will be focusing on the game tomorrow at Oklahoma instead. This game will most likely be under points as Warriors tightened their defense.
My bet is on under 215 points.

bet on under points is dangerous when the Warriors are playing. I would just don't bet if I believed that game would be under, there are other good games
True, especially when they dominate the game. The warriors were able to beat the Memphis Grizzlies at home and finally, they break the streak of the Memphis against them. The line is very low for the Warriors since they lost twice in a row against this team but tonight they made a revenge, we should be happy now.
right they already show some defense until the last period and they didn't ruin their leads, warriors really play with clay dominating the points
its really hard seeing the trio play good games they are aiming for a good streak and revenge if we can call it like that.
The good thing is they were able to adjust, if this team will face in the playoffs, you know who would you put your money. As for me, I like the warriors now as they have figure out how to play defense as well, my only fear is when they will face a much more stronger team like the Spurs.
7380  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Strategy and Lost in GAMBLE on: February 11, 2017, 03:18:53 AM
in gambling dice I often use martingale strategy it's the general strategy but can generate profits as long as not greedy. in sportsbetting I prefer choosing a team that has a chance to win big, and of course see the details of the game
In dice game martingale is a very famous strategy, martingale is effective/non effective strategy depending on how you will use it. You just dont need to be greedy. In sports betting you cant assure that the higher odds will surely win, Before betting on a team I am investigating first where to bet.
You call it handicapping games, which I believe is very important as this game is not a luck based game but rather a skilled based games. The statistics is very important and the relevant information that would affect your handicapping, when you are inform and you analyze well, you have a better chance to win especially in the longer run.
