I’m thinking about create website with crypto casino review. What do you think? Is it useful or not?

Which casino you prefer? Is it positive or negative experience?

I think the more the merrier, as what they say. It will be useful specially if the reviews you make are un-biased because it will really help and we all know that a 'worth of mouth' is very powerful in this business. At least you will give the community a big help because it will save us a lot of time and money, imho.

I will not contradict, maybe this is a really good coin. But here at every corner they give advice, "do not put all your eggs in one basket," in order to avoid big losses.

Agree. That's why I'm annoyed when people started to ask for financial advises here. I mean members are very opinionated and if you're asking for advises then everyone has it's own coins to wanted to grow exponentially in the next coming years. So I won't contradict the OP and wish him the best and hope that what he says will make him damn rich and be a legend one day for predicting Turtlecoin to be one of the hottest in the next couple of years.
7583  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you feel shameful for being a gambler? on: December 26, 2018, 12:43:23 PM
No I don’t feel shame for being a gambler. Gambling is not a bad things. I know that some people don’t like gambling. Because they thought that it is totally a time waster. But I don’t think so. I like to do gambling every day. I like it so much. I feel proud to being a gambler. But there is no specific reason that why I like gambling. I just take it only for fun.

Not a time waster but money wise it's not a good way to lose it in gambling. Of course, everyone here likes to play specially if you're winning. Some play for fun while majority of us wanted to take that risk and take home profits.

I am not addicted with gambling. I never invest lots of money in gambling site. I just do gambling for time pass. When I have free time then I do gambling. Gambling is a good things for fun. It is not a shameful things. It just like a general game. Some people jusy do invest in this game. Invest mean not bad. We should take it positively. Mind positive mean all positive. I personally like gambling and I feel proud to being a gambler.

Best regards
Coin-Desk

If you are not addicted then good for you. But I'm sure that 90% got hooked and need professional help to get away from their gambling habits. But you have to be very cautious as well because addicted gambler first sign is denial, just saying.

I know a website that has multiplayer games and it shows the result of each game in mD5 hash mode before playing .
so It is the only trustworthy website to make money.
take a look and share your idea :
www.headortailbet.com

It's a decent site with the hash mode generated after every bet but my suspicion is that it may not be as trustworthy as it may look on the surface. You could easily have a different coding interface masked by the surface displayed to the player. It's just that I'd be wary of this not being 100% trustworthy.

By now we should have gotten the result: It's not a trustworthy website because I'm sure no one gambler here even touch that website, lol. I won't recommend any though, it's still up to the gamblers to make their choices but I'm sure they really know what gambling sites to play because we have so many trusted online sites right now.
7585  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is playing casino games online a good idea? on: December 26, 2018, 12:15:34 PM
Till the time you gamble for fun and do it occasionally it should not be a problem. But moment you start getting addicted to it or cannot control your emotions then it becomes a bigger problem as then you would like to continue to keep on gambling through out the day and might lose a lot of money too.


Exactly. I see a lot of young people in a casino and I just say that this guys will be the next generation gamblers and I'm sure that they will be hooked. Specially we know that young people cannot control or they will have a difficulty of controlling their emotions. Although I see some of them are just having fun but we all know that's not the case because maybe 4 out of 10 of those friends will come back to play more and that will be start of their journey, so its really not a good idea though because we all know what gambling can bring to them.
7586  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sometimes enough is enough on: December 26, 2018, 11:32:15 AM
This usually where it starts. If you are a beginner, then im sure 80% of it starts with peer pressure. Friends who are addict on gambling needs some companion because some get their comfidence to them. Some also make them as a last resort and borrow money to them. But if you have control,notging can beat you up.
Controlling yourself should be done first before you gamble because you should know that its too risky to gamble and if you continue to do that, its hard to leave the casinos because of the pressure of course. Learn to stop when you got profit and most especially know when to exit if you don’t have much money now to play. We should learn to control our emotion to save us from losing bit money.
Most of the time we are hearing or reading such things like controlling emotions can help us up avoiding to be addicted and too much engage with such activities, we can take some extra advantages if we know when to stop and when to play with some good edge, but when in such situations its really hard
to make an easy decision,
so having a concrete plans before dealing with gambling is the best way to stop at the right time never to let your entire bankroll to be burned forcing you to sell out something or to barrow more.

Yes that is correct, it's really hard to make that decision because your emotions is playing with you. And as much as you wanted to quit, your mind tell's otherwise so it's really very very difficult to really control specially when you're losing and seeing that your bankroll is slowly going to 0. But I don't know about borrowing money though just to gamble because I haven't try that. I take money in a casino that I can afford to lose so if ever I get busted, I can quickly go home and fight another day.
7587  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UFC 232: Jones vs Gustafsson 2 Prediction and Info Thread on: December 26, 2018, 11:27:32 AM
So the fight between Cris Cyborg and Amanda Nunes took almost a year in the making with Amanda Nunes taking a lot of time and giving an alibi about his supposed injury. Cris Cyborg also made an announcement that this might be her final with with UFC. Take note "final with with UFC" so does this means she might sign up with another promotions?

It's weird though, UFC is the best mixed-martial arts promotion right now, why would she left and sign for another promotion though? We would understand if she really went to go and retire for good but moving to a new promotional organisation is not a right move, in my opinion.
7588  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: XRP beat ETH? on: December 26, 2018, 11:17:10 AM
Well, I still doubt that he can outrun the Ethereum in the number of transactions , certainly in terms of capitalization surpassed , but I think the Ethereum love so much more

Of course the yardstick is in terms of price/trading volumes/market capitalization and when you look at coinmarketcap, XRP has surpassed ETH last month and still continue to take the second spot from Bitcoin. But there's still a lot of arguments against ETH, specially how it is controlled by the bankers or it is centralize coin. And I heard the ETH will have it's forked next month if I'm not mistaken so there's still a chance than it can regain its position and maybe we will see another ATH when this market started its bull run next year.
7589  Economy / Speculation / Re: Today is 365 days since the last ATH on: December 26, 2018, 11:06:30 AM
No one can say 100% what will happen, but as we can see the price grow a bit, but maybe the next ATH in my opinion will be only next year when possible bitcoin value more than 30,000$ and keep the high price more time than was last ATH.
Sure the bitcoin price will rise in the next years especially around the time of halving but what is essential is the adoption, the more Bitcoin is used the more price growth is important.

dont expect too much because your expectations will only dissapoint you  . this is what im always saying to myself and to the users around this forum because we oftenly predict to early but after the time comes , our predictions are always failed because cryptos didnt get on what we intented .

 much better if we dont speculate at all , so that  whales will be confused on what we are thinking and they may even pump the price because they want us to make a  noise again .

Yes that's the correct mindset right now. Last year was different, bitcoin was rising like $1K in day so everyone was hoping to see the price go on parabolic rise, but it's not the case. I think we should have learn to adjust our strategy this year, including not putting too much expectations. It's a hard lessons but we should realized that the market won't recover and it will take more time to see it even moving to $5000-$6000 not unless there's a big news that will change the sentiments, but I'm not sure about that one so just prepare and don't put a higher expectations, imho.
7590  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Floyd Mayweather set for New Year's Eve fight in Japan on: December 26, 2018, 10:57:47 AM
I think with his Centra scam involvement it didn't put a significant dent on his bank account. But I would have to agree with @nutildah that he is dumb hehehhe. I think Floyd really wanted to stay in the boxing business or shall I say wanted to be relevant as long as he can so he can milk the public with this kind of circus or a joke fight and then still claims to be the greatest fighter of all time.
7591  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is the main problem with the crypto market at the moment? on: December 26, 2018, 10:47:16 AM
Hi,
According to you what do you think is the main problem at the moment in the crypto world?
So why we don't see real life adoption yet and so on.

According to me the answer is simple. People from the general public treats crypto as a new style high risk gambling. They don't take it seriously.


What is your opinion?
I think this is an important topic, and very broad topic as well.

Talk about Bitcoin with any newbie, most of the time they will ask you this: what can I actually buy with Bitcoin?

And the answer for now is: very few things, unless you are in a country such as Japan. .. so for me this is the major issue with crypto currencies (in general) nowadays. Very few adoption for using it in daily life. But we will get there.

I'm lucky that I living in a country in Asia wherein crypto has started, I have used it not to buy things, but I can readily pay most of my bills thru bitcoin so it's a very welcoming experience. I have some of my bitcoin holding separated from the bitcoins I earned for that payment purposes only. But yes, generally speaking its not yet adopted globally and it might take sometime before people can learn and will used it for their daily life.
7592  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Pre-Season on: December 26, 2018, 10:24:38 AM
Watching Los Angeles Lakers vs Golden State Warriors is like watching a preview of the western conference finals. Golden State Warriors is still ahead in the standings before Los Angeles Lakers, but its still too early to say that either of this two teams will be in the conference finals but I hope this 2 will again meet.
Yup! But I admit that Lakers did a great performace despite of the home court advantage of Warriors. Props to Rondo and Zubac, they also did a great job Smiley

Anyway, aren't you bored to watch again Lebron and Steph in the finals? I don't know if I'm the only one who felt this but I mean this rivalry is always competing for the trophy, there's nothing new — it doesn't excites me anymore Roll Eyes. I got now more interest to Rockets v.s. Spurs in the west and Boston v.s. Milwaukee in the east

Those two players (James and Curry) are the best in this era so it's good to see them compete and fight for the championship. Although there's a lot of team improving this year, but come playoffs GSW elevated their game one level so it's hard not to see them in the finals again. Rockets and Spurs are not doing good in the West and I don't think that they will be a threat to GSW at this point.

7594  Economy / Economics / Re: Is the Market Stabilizing? on: November 27, 2018, 05:33:42 AM
What are your opinions?
~snip~

stability is always temporary in the BTC market, at least in this nascent era of early adoption. it won't be truly stable until the market is saturated and there is little room for future network growth. any long term stable period will eventually erupt into a violent trend.

regarding what to do, i'm of the opinion that we're approaching a major swing low in the $3000 area or maybe after a quick dip into the $2000s. the time to sell was in the $5000s. if you're going to sell this late, watch closely and don't wait forever to buy back.
the next question is when will bitcoin begin to move up again

Well no one can really answer that question. We've seen the price somewhat stablizes but then out of nowhere the price plummeted. We went from $65xx->$36xx->$4xxx->$36xx again. So there's a lot of bloodbath going on and I don't think it will just end.

Although I believed that we're getting closer to bottom but its hard to say when we're going to see the start of the bull cycle. It could be the start of next year, or Q2. There's no indication whatsoever, that's why it makes they whole crypto market more exciting specially for speculators or gamblers alike.
7595  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: bch sv undervalued now is the time to invest on: November 27, 2018, 05:06:01 AM
I don't think BCH SV has any future now. If it had any support then it would have won the hash war or alliances. Not saying BCH ABC is any better, but BCH SV has just failed. Betting on it would be like dumping your money.

I agree. CW just created a lot of messed affecting even Bitcoin's price. I don't know if that is his intention or not, but i'm sure that this coin will just be another altcoin and not the much touted original coin as "Sathoshi' Vision".

The damage has been done and not its going to be a long road ahead specially for Bitcoin to recover again. If it's not mineable specially larger blocks then how can they make profits at the long run? It doesn't make sense at all and obviously, no one will used it as well, not too brilliant, CW!!!
7596  Economy / Speculation / Re: There is something fishy in this correction.. on: November 25, 2018, 11:06:30 AM
We can all blame in on the bots. Lol. They are the real culprit here, traders who doesn't set their stop loss properly. Seriously though, the market is getting worst because of the panic and some guys creating FUD and pointing that bitcoin could go $1500 levels which I don't believed.

As for the current price, this $3K levels should have a strong support, we never broke it for the last year or so, even when there's FUD around China banning Bitcoin and Jamie Dimon attacking the system, this support levels was not broken.  And personally, I see bears are exhaustive, sooner or later they will get tired with all this sell-offs so the bulls will take over again.
7597  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: With all honesty, who still wants bitcoin to die? on: November 25, 2018, 10:46:06 AM
You're on a bitcoin forum, obviously, no one wanted to die and it will not die. Bitcoin has survived a lot of challenges in the past 10 years, and I think that this test is just another bump in the road so to speak.

And for those who continue to attack bitcoin, Lol, you just have to go through their posting history and you will see the animosity towards bitcoin which really baffles me. They definitely have their reasons, but it never ceases to amaze me how they troll this forums for years and years. Lol.
7598  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitter Truth on: November 24, 2018, 10:48:40 PM
Of course why would someone buy expensive Bitcoin when you can get it a discount? It just doesn't make any sense. Not just Bitcoin but other crypto currency as well.

The problem is that we didn't know the discounted price, (bottom) that's why majority is still holding back, but I'm sure that when the price reaches <$4K, a lot of investors will have a panic buying. Lol. So let's see how everything goes if Bitcoin will continue its downtrend or not.
7599  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Swiss Bitcoin ETP on: November 24, 2018, 06:57:28 PM
I tryed find posts explaining this ETP, What is a ETP? This Swiss ETP will buy Bitcoins?

ETP - Exchange Traded Product

As per Investopedia:

Quote
Exchange-traded products (ETP) are a type of security that is derivatively priced and trades intra-day on a national securities exchange. ETPs are priced so the value is derived from other investment instruments, such as a commodity, a currency, a share price or an interest rate. Generally, ETPs are benchmarked to stocks, commodities or indices. They can also be actively managed funds. ETPs include exchange-traded funds (ETFs), exchange-traded vehicles (ETVs), exchange-traded notes (ETNs) and certificates.

https://www.investopedia.com/terms/e/exchange-traded-products-etp.asp

As far as I know the Swiss ETP, they will have a ticker holder of "HODL". So as per definition, the price could be derived from the price of Bitcoin and other altcoins as well, so its a basket of assets so to speak.
7600  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: John McAfee and his promises. on: November 24, 2018, 05:01:26 PM
Do you remember McAfee's statements that he will eat his penis if the price of bitcoin is not $ 1 million?) I urge everyone not to forget about it! This jester many times confused the community with his idiotic statements, in June he predicted bitcoin for 15 thousand, advertised scam. Don't believe him)

Of course who will forget about that? He made a big fuss about his prediction and all eyes are on this guy. But if you look closely, John McAfee is just a influencer, his trying to trick people to buy more bitcoins because I'm sure that he has tons of them stash somewhere.

But for smart investor, they're just laughing at this guy's prediction. Yes we believed that bitcoin might get to $1 m, but with that short amount of time? I don't think so.
