761  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin split on: August 01, 2017, 05:26:44 PM
is there anything happen ??

from where we can get the true real time  news?


Thanks

Don't worry, nothing has happened so far. Just check that site every once in a while and see what it says. Just go to sleep if you have to and wait it off. Worrying too much will only make things worse, not exactly something we want in this situation.

Why worrying nothing will happen because of this split. Maybe we see changes in Bitcoin price that's it. But if people do not support BCC then surely the Bitcoin price will go high. Your bitcoins will be safe if you have your private keys.

who will win England or south Africa..
I think England going win this test match because of this the home pitch of England and they have good batting lineup and good blowing attack. and one thing there is chances to drew due bad wethers.
Yes! Bad weather may be a factor. But, in recent times, statistics say that, Eng have almost always had the better of SA in red-ball cricket at the Oval. However, they began the series with a win by 211 runs. But, had suffered in the second test.

But the forecast displays good amount of rain around the stadium so no one knows about this match.
On the other hand if India could manage to all out Sri Lanka before lunch then Sri Lanka will be in deep trouble in the first test match of this series.

Still it's raining I think today the play over. Still, 2 days left India made 56/2 runs. Lead by 365 runs if they play tomorrow first session and make 100 more runs and declare means they have a chance to win this test match. But tomorrow also the rain continues then I can't say whether this match will get result or ends as Draw.

Trading is very far from Gambling, but it both have involve money. In trading you can analyze what will happen to the coins you're buying. In gambling so hard to predict when you can win or maybe not.

For me, trading is very low risk (Please don't panic sell Cheesy) and gambling is a high risk one.
You are wrong mate in trading it is hard to guess how the coin price will increase and decrease. But this is safe if you have patience and wait until you get a good price to sell your coins. But gambling is not like that we can guess the game result based on our experience but sometimes our bad luck we will get unexpected results. Both have a risk, but both are not same.
764  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is betting a good choice for a newbie? on: July 28, 2017, 10:13:50 AM
I am earning and collecting bitcoin to bet on sports in future.Will it be a good choice to invest in it betting or other things.Where should i invest my bitcoin to have a long term profit?

If you only have a small amount of bitcoin then no, betting is not a good idea. Gamble with fiat if you only have a small stash of bitcoin's. Bitcoin is too precious to waste gambling if you don't have a lot. Hold onto your bitcoin, it will be worth more & more as time goes on.

Small or big amount of bitcoin, it is not good for a newbie to just try and gamble. If you want to try and gamble then read up some experiences here on the forum or elsewhere. Know what you should avoid. I for one was a newbie to gambling once, and oh boy, if I knew what I knew today. I would not have done what I did in the past.

I agree if one does not have any past experience in gambling then a newbie in bitcoin themselves should not start gambling just to earn bitcoin. Only those who have suffered the addiction of gambling can relate to the dangers it has on normal lives and how it can destroy someones life if they are not careful. They would repent later on so its better not to.

I also believe that gambling must not be easily taken by a newbies, it is not natural to take chances people love new experiences that could give them some unexpected results. most people gambles with the expectations that they'll be able to take the price or simply to win but it is inevitable that life will surely give you downfalls likewise in gambling.

i believe gambling is an entertainment where money may be lost. is a serious addiction and it can damage the person,  for a newbie, especially if he  has not experience on that matter. it may lead to  addiction and can make an impact on their lives, he will surely try to win and take chances one after the other which could lead to a certain loss.

With or without experience if the newbie has control on his emotions then he can control his feelings in gambling. But if he is greedy person can't control tension means for him this gambling is not good. Stay away from this gambling. They have a chance to addict to gambling very soon.
765  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What keeps you coming back??? on: July 28, 2017, 10:10:51 AM
I think people keep coming back to gamble is the money. If someone wins a huge amount of money I don't think he will keep gambling at least that what I think so. People who can't control themselves keep getting back trying to regain their money losses which leads the to even bigger losses and that's the danger of gambling.

yes i strongly agree on you.i once experience it to make loss to win and to draw.the feeling of excitement the feeling loss etc.this could be the  factors that can keep you coming back in gambling.
That's what everybody wants, to have money and profit. I think we know the answer to that. It's the part where we feel that we could win and of course like you said, the excitement towards gambling. The thrill and that's awesome to feel. Some people don't like thrills and don't take risks, that's saddening because there are things that could  give you great opportunities but you're not going to get it because you're scared. Take the appropriate risk so you won't regret what you are currently doing.
They will care for money that is why they are scared to take the risk. If we have enough money to lead our life and still we have money to enjoy, then it has to mean to take a risk and enjoy the thrill in that risk. Gambling will give us full of fun and thrills while playing gambling but to enjoy this thrill we need money.
766  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do you feel when win in gambling? on: July 28, 2017, 10:04:41 AM
Of course happy, that's what we're looking for here, that's what we're looking for from gambling. But satisfaction is not always what we get. Sometimes we are not satisfied with what we get when we win. But what I feel when I win, I'm always happy. That is all.
Happiness comes to everyone who win in gambling because e get some reward in that victory, and some people do not get satisfaction even after winning because they have a goal in their mind that they will collect a certain amount of money from their winning and when they win a little amount then they do not be that much happy.




People like them who will feel a tremendous defeat, because when they win in small numbers, they will not feel satisfied, and they will continue to gamble until finally they lose by spending all the funds
you need to be disciplined to make sure your gambling activity not useless and even profitable.

having a calm emotion and stick to the rules will lead you into a happiness no matter you lost or win it. try to do that and you will never feel disappointed if you won small amount only or trying to reach a higher amount .

the hardest thing that we can not control is when we are win the games, this could makes us to forget about our goals, our disciplines, our limit and many people is failure when they can win. and i am agree that we must have good control with our emotion so we don't get bad affect in any situations, win or lose, so if we are win, we don't get too much happy or feel too much satisfied.
even worse if you lost , you could go mad to looking for another funds source to gamble , no matter you could get a loan or use teh money that actually doesn't belong to you , stupid things frequently happened when you lost control and it is because you can not accept that you have lost.

people will feel so happy for a while , if they decide to continue to play i am sure no more happy feeling after that.
Being happy on gambling would really be on temporary basis because after winning we will surely experience loss too which isnt already a nice thing which we would normally feel rage or upset and yes we will really seek on things that we would play even more because we do lose money and sometimes we cant really control ourselves on making foolish things which we cant realize along the way.
How most of the humans think you know we will not enjoy the present situation. We always think about future or the past we will forget to enjoy the present movement. If we win now we will not enjoy that win we will think what will do if I lose next bet. if you learn enjoying present situation then you will get lot of fun in gambling.
767  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you use analysis when play gambling? on: July 25, 2017, 06:13:11 PM
I use analysis only when I bet on sports, because there can not be won only on emotions. But in roulette analysis is not needed, I can only get pleasure from the game there.

There is no gambling game that can be won by emotion, if there is one, hit me with a PM, I can assure you I will be a millionaire in no time. Also, all gambling games use analysis, even roulette. Analysis is not only about thinking the the teams and players, analysis also is about how much are you gonna bet so you can be sure even if you lose or win.

Right. It goes way beyond the game itself. Most gamblers undermine the importance of analysis especially for luck based games but it is important so you'll have a plan when you start up. Having a plan would allow you to limit your deposits and control the amount you're going to plah with to avoid bigger losses
good point its needed to have those strategies before entering and depositing your money knowing what would be the best bankroll and assessing the flow
of current games then analysis take place and its doing a good role in order to win or to avoid bigger loses.
The analysis also one type of fun in gambling. That means it is good time pass. and it improves our mind power we will be very active while doing any work. Once we start to do the analysis before playing gambling, it will continue while doing other work also. That means what ever work we do we will do small analysis about that work. It makes us take right decision in any work.
768  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How greedy you are? When will you stop and withdrawn? on: July 25, 2017, 06:07:44 PM
I don't remember  that I become a greedy person in the gambling site. Because most of the time I just played there
just for enjoyment and relaxation only then if I know I'm winning immediately I stop the games.
I think in this world no one is live without greediness. Do you lose money in gambling? Or you never play long term game in gambling? I will also play gambling to get relief from my work stress and enjoyment purpose. But I will stop my play when I start to get back to back the loss. That means I will not stop when I am winning my bets. According to me most of the gamblers stop their play when they lost the game. But you are different mate interesting.
769  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How do i get free coins? on: July 25, 2017, 09:39:08 AM
You can get some free coins by doing faucet and also participating in bounty campaigns
There is a lot of altcoin that is available for bounty campaigns and it is up to you which coin to choose
Just be careful in choosing because only some of them will succeed.
Yes before joining any bounty just check that bounty which coin they are paying, and it is worth or not for your time. But these bounties will help newbies to collect some free coins. They don't have many options to collect free coins like senior members.
770  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What is the most popular Altcoin? on: July 25, 2017, 09:36:25 AM
DOGE
if you want Popular [in the future]
why?  TX fees kids, basic math.

sure ETH BTC ZEC XRP DASH EOS will be over sexulaized coins for the bloody rich overlords
& wisemen will hold ltc, etc, and xmr for reserves

but the everyday man will be using DOGE, because he can spend it send it to buy it
CHEAPER than the BELMz
I do agree because many gambling sites are accepting this doge coin to play online gambling. But the value is very less not increasing. Is there any assurance that this coin will go up in coming months then I will buy and hold. Because I don't like to lose money to invest in now famous coins.
771  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: best altcoin to collect? on: July 25, 2017, 09:31:52 AM
Start collecting coins which is the big five on the marketplace now and hold Grin
ETH ? LSK ? ZEC ? I dont know, maybe the price will go up after 2 years. But i chose to trade with short period, because it's very hard to choose the best coin now.
Option : ZEC, DASH, ETH, LSK, BTS

ETH, DASH, Zcash, Monero are the top altcoins in the market. And now miners are mining ETC more because it is giving more profit in short time. ETC classic also has impressive value. If you invest on these coins, you will make a big profit in after 2 years. Specially ETH may cross $1000 this has the capability to cross this margin in 2 years of time.
772  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Another opportunity to buy Bitcoin at Cheap price on: July 25, 2017, 09:24:17 AM
I imagine it will drop down to low 2000's (at least) again at some point. Just go look at the history chart. Long term definitely going up, but short term will prob be roller coaster
Yes this chart looks like roller coaster many up and downs we had seen since last few weeks. But now we are the end of this month maybe sudden drop will happen or may not occur. I will not give you an exact prediction. But if it goes down one more time definitely I will buy some coins now I have money in my wallet and waiting for the time. 
773  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to start investing in cryptocurrencies with 500$ ? on: July 25, 2017, 09:19:32 AM
You have good start up investment with you and you could do that with ethereum and ripple. These coins will go up sharp after the august scenario is dispersed from the market. The bip91 is already locked so split is mostly cancelled. Taking that into consideration these coins will be invested more and more after that, and thus the price will rise. :-)

If split not happen and it cancelled means 1st Bitcoin price will go up and later the altcoins will increase. So you can invest in bitcoins just wait for 5 days if the price drops you can buy $500 worth of bitcoins and hold it up to this year end you will make 100% profit. Altcoins also give you a good profit, but the risk is more to compare Bitcoin.

Are your trading guide only for Bitcoin? Not for trading Bitcoin/Altcoin is right? I very interesting your thread but I need find some method helps me improve my skill in trading crypto, about skill buy/sell Bitcoin and earning profit with exchange rate difference I know it Smiley

This guide is specifically for buying/selling bitcoin (not alts) on Localbitcoins.com and Paxful.com. I do trade alts on exchanges such as Poloniex/Bittrex but I don't have the necessary experience/expertise to write a guide on that. And to be honest, trading in that manner with alts is a much more speculative gamble as opposed to the guaranteed income strategies that I will pose in my guide.




For 0.1btc we can purchase a trading guide, written by you?

Yes, that is correct. This will be a highly detailed guide on how you can sell your bitcoins safely on Localbitcoins.com/Paxful.com for +5-10% and then the methods of reacquiring the bitcoins for -1 to +1%.

You are not explained any single bit how to make money in trading in this thread. So that means we have to buy your guide and we want to learn how to make money am I right. And one more thing this guide will not help for newbies only those who have experience in trading they can improve their trading knowledge that's it right.
775  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Newbie - Investing in BTC/ETH on: July 25, 2017, 09:03:22 AM
Hello all,

I'm new to this and have started learning about the characteristics of bitcoin, how to mine it and the pros and cons of it. Although I have learnt the basics of mining, I personally don't plan on doing it as simply put I do not have the resources to do so. So rather than mining, I am looking into purchasing BTC through localbitcoins then transferring it to my Electrum wallet.

My questions are: (some of these have been answered in older threads but I just want to be reassured please)
- Would you advise on purchasing BTC now before August 1st?
- Is it advisable to use Electrum to store the coins? I have encrypted it and written my seed on paper.
- Would you say, in your opinion, ETH would be a good investment?

I only plan on purchasing a small amount of BTC (3-4) to start with.

If you have any books (or articles) you'd like to share that'd be a good read, please do share!

Thanks,
Makkie

Welcome to Bitcoin, Makkie!

Here my answers to your questions:
- Would you advise on purchasing BTC now before August 1st?
Personally, I am monitoring the market and I will buy BTC when it hit $1800 to $1900 before 1st of August.
- Is it advisable to use Electrum to store the coins? I have encrypted it and written my seed on paper.
It is better to store your BTC in paper wallet.
- Would you say, in your opinion, ETH would be a good investment?
If it is for the long term, I will say yes. But maybe you would like to consider Antshares.


Just 5 days is there, and the price is now $2700. In just 5 days the price will drop $1000 is it possible and is there any reason to fall price suddenly. I don't think again the price will go under $2000. So you already missed the right chance to buy bitcoins. You want to wait then wait only 5 days left.
776  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What are your plans with your Bitcoin? on: July 24, 2017, 02:48:49 PM
Hi guys Smiley May I know what are your plans on your Bitcoin in the future? Do you plan to keep on investing on Bitcoin related businesses or do plan to convert it into fiat and ventures on new business?

I'm planning to invest more on Bitcoin related companies and convert some of my Bitcoin into fiat and invest it on our local stock market. How about you?
Now that I already invested my bitcoin I am planning to wait for the right time tht the value of the Bitcoin becomes higher so that I can sell my bitcoin and have my return on investment.
Where you invested your bitcoins and what returns you are expecting. I think you have invested your money in bitcoins and holding that coins for the price increase. Once the price goes up, you sell, and you will make profit right. My plan also same I am holding my coins.
777  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do the miners need the Bitcoin users? on: July 24, 2017, 02:45:31 PM
I think we need to evaluate the users value in this experiment. Let's list the benefits of having users in this Bitcoin network.

~ Users generate transactions, which generates miners fees.
~ Users create services that accepts bitcoins as a payment option.
~ Users use services {Merchants} that accepts Bitcoin.
~ Users spread the word about Bitcoin. {Bitcoin Meetups & posting on forums}
~ Users create demand for bitcoins and this increase the value {price}

Let's list some more contributions that Bitcoin users bring to the table for this experiment to work. Once we have seen the value they bring, we will know how to make a success of this.


That is of course, the value of bitcoin does not depend on miners, the value of bitcoin depends entirely on the user, in other words, the miners are the only ones who maintain bitcoin transactions. However, miners are also users of bitcoin, so they have the right to make comments to protect their rights.
The miners are the base for this Bitcoin if they not mine we will not get bitcoins in the market, and the value of the bitcoin will increase. I agree that price of the bitcoin will be based on miners they have 60% contribution remaining it depends on users. Again the question will raise what about if the users stop to use Bitcoin. So this is never ending story.
778  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The future of Bitcoin on: July 24, 2017, 02:39:38 PM
...not a guaranteed value of the Bitcoin makes the price move is not fair.
Life is not fair. The fact that bitcoin is not guaranteed by state violence is the very reason it will succeed, the very thing that makes it unique from all violence-backed state promissory scrip.

No, bitcoin will not last forever. But it will almost certainly get us through the end of capitalism.
I think the future Bitcoin will flourish. Because it is a progressive currency, a currency breakout. Some people do not believe in Bitcoin's sustainability because it's so alien and different. But for those who have used Bitcoin, they fully trust Bitcoin's beautiful future and their participation in Bitcoin.

Those who are involved in this Bitcoin activity from last 5 to 6 years they put more trust on this Bitcoin. And they will believe that bitcoin will have bright future. But now the recent comers will have this type of questions in their mind. Becasue they don't have more experience in Bitcoin. Once they addict to this Bitcoin, they also get to know the Bitcoin have bright future.
779  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How can gambling help you with your life? on: July 24, 2017, 02:33:05 PM
To my opinion gambling made me a person I am today, I've learned so many crucial things in life my decision making is now pure and direct without malice, my psychological emotion will not interfere with my thoughts now, however who will know, mostly everyone would not agree with this kind of statement, but this is the fact, the time you lose you also win that is the law of equivalent exchange.
Many people will not accept this because nobody will go in depth of this gambling. You had a lot of experience in gambling that is why you found many things in gambling. These are common things that everyone will have while playing gambling but nobody will notice that's it. We only notice happy and sad movement in gambling.
780  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you use analysis when play gambling? on: July 24, 2017, 02:29:01 PM
I see no point in using analysis in gambling. Gambling is primarily created for pleasure, and then for a possible win in case of luck. The analysis is appropriate for trade.

Then, you don't need to gamble, gambling is not just about pleasure, profit and luck, it is also all about analysis. Every gambling that we play, we use analysis, what to pick to bet, where to put your money, how much will you bet, it is all analysis.
We don't and can't use analysis on games of luck, because everything is random. analysis can be useful only on games of skills, even with analysis winning is not guaranteed. so be careful and don't bet over your limits.
Even analyzing will not be able to ensure we always win. Analyzing only makes us more confident in what we do, making us more confident to place bets. We can be even more sure if we want to place a high value bet.
Yes analysis will make us improve our betting strategy. When we start to use analysis in gambling than our technical skills also improve. Because we will not only think about our winning, we will think what will do if we lose that bet. This will make our brain sharp, and we will be very active. But the only thing is e will not make any profit.
