781  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How Do You Manage Your Adrenaline Rush In Gambling? on: September 12, 2023, 10:34:52 AM
So How Do You Manage Your Adrenaline Rush In Gambling when you lose your bankroll but the adrenaline rush is still too high, people who cannot control their Adrenaline Rush are often people who commit the mistake of chasing their losses and adding more funds to their account, amount that usually they cannot afford to lose.
Im pretty much sure and i could really say that im really that kind of person who is really having that kind of discipline on which i could really say that i could stop on point if ever i would really be telling myself on doing so.
Adrenaline rush could come out whether you are in a winning situation or losing one on which it would really be creating that kind of emotion which causes for you to make further actions which isnt even that right anymore but since that kind of boost up will really be that pushing you on doing it. This is why outcomes or results on certain actions would really be able to experience since you have done thing.

On my part, if ever i do lost a certain amount and im still really that eager on playing because hoping that the next roll might be a win then i do simply close entire browser (online) or walk away (physical/offline)
which it would really be causing for me to completely cut-off that session on that particular time which i do really avoid on spending up more most of  the time or simply i did make the right call.

Personally I have been able to get out of addiction only by my strong will to do so and this should be the main advice to you and anyone else who want to come out of it,you have to want it with all your body and spiritual desire and you can do it.Of course this takes a lot of time and I didn't come out of this immediately,I started playing smaller and smaller amounts every week,kept playing with a different currency like IDR which kept me playing longer and longer until I started to get bored of such long sessions but without losing any substantial amount of money.Now I still do play with IDR and I have a set weekly bankroll which I never overdo it or better I overdo it only very few times.This is how I got out of full addiction.

The strong minded gamblers only escape from the gambling addiction,others easily addicted with the gambling.This because of the huge attraction towards the gambling.Sometimes the gambler who want the passive income from their real income will use the gambling.Because now the economic condition was not easiest one.So all of us need of second income to manage today economic condition.The reason behind this was the product cost was increased a lot.The cost of pen was increased 20-30 percentage from the real value,like wise each product cost was increased and it was the main reason for the passive income from the gambling.
So it will depend on each gambler to determine when they will quit their gambling addiction. Other people cannot force them to quit or stop gambling because it is related to the consciousness of each gambler. And as long as the gambler still wants to gamble, he will continue to gamble without anyone stopping him. Some gamblers try to reduce their gambling activities by reducing their gambling time, and so far, they have been able to do this, and day by day, they are increasingly able to reduce it. So if each gambler already has a strong will to stop gambling, that's when they can try to do it, and they will be able to really reduce their gambling time or even stop gambling.
Of course, whether a regular gambler or an addicted gambler wants to stop or reduce his gambling activities, it depends on the gambler's awareness and serious intentions. And if there is no serious intention they will continue gambling until they realize it after their life becomes poor, and this often happens and they stop and realize it after losing everything.
Gambling activities are not an opportunity to seek passive income, because winnings in gambling are inconsistent and if they cannot be controlled it will actually make the gambler suffer.
Regrets do always come at the end and there's no way that you would really be able to have those points in life in starting, this is why most of the time or you would definitely be stopping gambling literally on the time that

you dont really have that money on your pocket or in your bank account on which it would really be making you do able to stop on playing gambling.Dont let yourself able to reach out such state on which you dont really already have the food to eat or having the house for shelter where everything had been sold out because of too much gambling addiction. Dont make yourself coming into a point like this because it is really that hard to recover once you do mess up when it comes to finances. Its true that stopping completely would really be entirely be depending on someones discipline and self control.

We know that each person or individual does have that different kind of control when it comes to their decisions in life. It is really just that impossible that you couldnt
really be able to re-assess on whats happening currently with your life.
783  Economy / Speculation / Re: How do you suggest I handle incorrect price predictions? on: September 10, 2023, 05:36:39 PM
I find it frustrating when my price prediction for the market fails. I know that it is difficult to predict the market movement due to its uncertainty and also that it is not possible to consistently predict the future accurately but it still hurts when I tell it to my friends and it doesn't turn out so. In January, I had predicted that by the third quarter of the year, bitcoin will hit $35k - $40k. I hide my head in shame because right now it is struggling at $25. Maybe I should stop quarterly prediction and stick with monthly predictions. Also how do you suggest I handle incorrect price predictions? Anybody been here. How do you handle it?
Don't let your wrong predictions bother you because it is not easy to predict what will happen tomorrow since you are not a seer. Bitcoin volatile price makes it unpredictable,which you know this. It is better you stop your predictions if you dont want to make more riddicule of yourself until you have known the right tools that you can use to predict the price. If I were i will only concentrate on hodling for long and not claiming one bitcoin price movement speculator because it isn't working out for you. This will make your friends not believe on bitcoin much due to your incorrect bitcoin price prediction,if they haven't made up their mind to invest yet.
Speculate all  you want because this is a speculative market afterall, there are really just that people who are really that too emotional when it comes to their actions and tends out to be that minding that much on which
coming into a point that whenever they do make out such bad decision or guesses then they do really get disappointed or having that kind of action which is something will really be not that goes easily.
If you do find yourself that impulsive then try to avoid out such situation on trying out to distract yourself whenever you do have that kind of impulsive reaction but if you are really not able to avoid and make out
that kind of emotional approach then just simply let it burst. For sure sooner or later you would really be getting used to it on the time that you would really be able to realize on how this market behaves.

Market is volatile and you should really get used to it so that you wont really be that highly reactive whenever it do really be able to hit up a specific level which is totally opposing on what you are predicting.
This is why its really that important on having that emotional control since you are dealing on a market which is really that unpredictable.

Quote
A man experiencing cardiac arrest and who later died was slumped over a blackjack table at Wynn Las Vegas for more than 15 minutes while the dealer continued to deal cards to another player, according to a wrongful death lawsuit filed this week in District Court. David Jagolinzer, an attorney from Florida, was staying at the Wynn when he suffered a cardiac arrest on April 6, 2022, while playing blackjack on the casino floor. The dealer at his table continued to deal while Jagolinzer was slumped over, according to a complaint filed Thursday.
https://www.reviewjournal.com/crime/courts/lawsuit-dealer-continued-to-deal-with-man-slumped-over-during-cardiac-arrest-2731495/

This happened in 2022 and although I do not know the outcome of the court case, my thoughts are that the discussion about casinos should go beyond security measures to cover how prepared they are in the event of a health emergency . I think that well-equipped First Aid Kit and trained paramedical staff could significantly contribute to ensuring the safety and well-being of casino patrons. Although casinos are primarily places where people go for entertainment and profit, the operators should put in place health emergency measures could potentially mitigate the impact of unforeseen events. On the other hand, I would argue that the family of the deceased is trying to obtain money from the casino. Do you think the casino is to be blamed?
I dont see for them to be blamed on the incident knowing that health issues cant really be known but its not really that bad on having that kind of suggestion on having that first aid or health personnel's that would really be

on the vicinity or the said venue on which if these cases do happen then there would really be that immediate support somehow but knowing that cardiac arrest is something a serious condition or situation
then it would be still somewhat pointless. I dont see for the casino to get blamed and to those who had been left by the victim doesnt have the rights on claiming about those money unless if those arent spent or
speaking about winnings then they do have the rights but asking about loss back then it cant be possible.

But for the suggestion on having some health personnel then it wont really be that a bad add up knowing that situations like this could really happen.
785  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading bots... do they work? on: September 09, 2023, 08:22:43 PM
While looking for shortcuts in all cases, I think we should never take shortcuts in trading. It is better to be as self-reliant as possible when it comes to trading. You need to be an experienced trader to operate a trading bot properly though. A new member will not be able to use the trading bot properly even if he wants to. There are financial risks in trading and if we use trading bots our financial risk will increase so it is better to avoid such trading system to avoid financial risk. In the case of trading, if we give ourselves time and try to learn about trading well, then we will know much better about trading. Whether we use trading bots or anything else, we need to be experienced in trading first, only then we can do well in trading.
There is nothing wrong in taking short cut if we really know what we are doing and how to position our trades. There is nothing wrong using bots to trade if the bot is absolutely profitable but it is compulsory for how to know how to trade so that we can predict the market along the way. There are bots that is very profitable if we know how to position our trades and utilize the bot to trade in the direction that we have programed the market to go. There are bots that giveore reasonable profits than qw ourselves trading in the market if we don't trade in the direction of the market.
Using bot doesnt mean that it would be profitable which this is really always the main misconception of people on which it is really that very wrong on having this kind of belief.Trading bots are tools which it do automates out

those trading methods or analysis on which means that it could always be in line with someones knowledge about trading. Some though have already set up which you could make use but if you do have that zero knowledge on what it is, then it would really be pointless or useless if you dont have that kind of knowledge and this is why that personal awareness and learning would really be that relevant when it comes to this. Those things do work? Yes it does but it wont really be making out assurance that those things will really ensure profitability and just like been said that this do only automates trades and not something that makes guarantees.

You would really be changing up these impressions on the time that you would really be able to have that actual experience on how this market works and how these trading bots would really be that
relevant on your trading path or career. You would be finding that it would be useful if you are a type of trader who dont really love on spending your time in front of your pc.
786  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Possible measures to stop online gambling addiction. on: September 09, 2023, 07:59:23 PM
gambling will never be perilous if we don not use it wrong. I mean when someone is influenced by advertisements or after seeing influencers broadcasting gambling games and talking about huge bonuses but we just try to play responsibly and instead try to use very small amounts to try our luck it not be a problem. its same as other gamblers, as long as gamblers are able to control themselves, gamble responsibly, gambling will not be dangerous, but will be a place of entertainment that can give us pleasure without the threat of addiction.
and for influencers who do that, its very reasonable because its their job or job so we can not blame them for that problem and for our own responsibility its something that must be taken care not to think about something big that we can get from gambling except pleasure.
Of course, that's their job and their way of making money is the same as bloggers who provide gambling site reviews by including referral links so that they benefit from people who register, and that's not wrong, it would be wrong if they provide information that isn't real like what I see in several broadcasts from gambler streamers with a tag line that will give the wrong interpretation.
However, assuming that broadcasts from gambler streamers can make people addicted, in my opinion, that is not entirely correct, because streamers are only trying to make money, and when someone is finally interested in gambling then it is their responsibility to maintain healthy behavior in their gambling activities. play within their limits

It is simply wrong to try to blame streamers or anyone promoting a casino as the source of gambling addiction, the source of addiction is within each person and each person is entirely responsible for their actions.

With that being said, once a person has become addicted or at least it is in the process of becoming one, it is very difficult for them to overcome it, as now gambling ads are everywhere and now you can access casinos all over the world with incredibly ease, a problem that did not existed a few decades ago.
Just as expected on which a certain individual would really be loving on pointing out his finger on someone just to put up the blame which it is really that a very common addicted gambler kind of behavior on which it is that

they would really be finding someone which they could really be able to blame on where they do end up to without even trying to realize that it was their fault in the first place.This is why if you dont really like on ending up miserable or on having a messy life when it comes to financial aspect then it would really be just that wise that you should really be mindful or responsible with their actions or else then everything would be messed up.
Stopping possible gambling addiction would really be entirely be depending or starting on you on which you could neither be having that kind of impulsive approach or simply having that good control and moderation when it comes into your funds.
You wont really get that addicted if you do have that kind of control and discipline when it comes to gambling then addiction is less likely but of course you do still need to be careful because
once you do make yourself get hooked with addiction then you would really be ending up miserable.

      -   You, yes, you. Are you tired? Can't make progress? Or every time you move forward, something bad always happens? Are you in a situation where you have to start from scratch again? Where does your problem start? in money? Why do you always have no money? Is it because of your responsibilities for your family or because you just don't have spending discipline? It is important that you know what the root of your problem is? Maybe the reason you are not making progress is because you spend a lot, so every time you have an emergency, you move your savings? Or sometimes you can borrow a cape. How to handle money What is real personal finance? What do you have to do to learn it? There are some things that can help you in this matter, and some of them are:

[a.] Read books related to personal finance.

[b.] Always hang out here on the Bitcointalk forum; you can see and learn a lot from this platform.

[c.] Watch videos that can give you inspiration to become better. And mingle with people who have a positive outlook on life.

I really agree with points A and C. For example, with point A, I read a book entitled the psychology of money, personal finance and how I manage money has changed drastically, as well as watching Andrew Tate, almost all of my life I still remember it. he said, you don't need continuous motivation, the most important thing is to be disciplined
Reading up some textbooks or seeing some motivational videos or something that could be learn online wont really be that bad as long it would really be making you that aware on what are the things should be done but

we know that on just making use of your own common sense then who would really be the one will be spending more than on what they do earn? It is really just that absurd on having that kind of thinking or mindset
because it will really be putting you on such condition on which it would really be ending up for you in a disaster just because you had tolerate out that kind of behavior on which it isnt a must thing to be done.
If you do see that you are earning less but spending tons then sooner or later you would really be finding yourself sleeping on the streets because you have sold everything or having that huge loan.

Always be having or mindful about personal financial management because if you do find yourself that too careless about this one then it would really be a huge problem on your part.
and this is something that we do let these things to happen.
788  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Learning from those who have experience on: September 08, 2023, 09:24:26 PM
I want to ask those of you who have a hard addiction experience in gambling and then you can treat it yourself, and today still playing gambling but with the principle of good management and financial management in gambling.
I want to know how you break away from the addiction, you can mention the actions taken or what kind of steps? And how long do you need time to break away from the addiction that has been experienced?

"I want to find out because I think your experience in the case as I mentioned will be useful for readers, especially for me personally"
There are many gamblers who at some point became addicted gamblers and have been able to recover from it. I myself have had experiences where I was able to realize something after losing a big assets. Because I was dreaming of realizing big dreams from gambling which at one stage taught me that gambling platform is not a place to realize dreams.

With having loss or gain one should get pleasure. When I saw that if I had invested or deposited the money which I lost every month, I would have saved a lot of money today. After learning this education I have been able to control my gambling. I still gamble but with full of control.

For sure, there are many people got that same sentiment as yours. After losing huge, realize that there's a big problem when you already become addicted to gambling.

You will just notice those realizations when you already experienced something like that, good for you that you manage
to change your mindset though gambling still exists, but dreaming big out from gambling, chances that you will chase
for something big that can lead you to lose more.

Regrets do always come at the end and this is something that you should really be that trying to avoid as much as possible on which you should really be trying out to lessen the risks as much as possible but since we are

talking about gambling then this is a venture on which you would really be that needing to spend money to get that kind of leisure and entertaining for yourself but most likely, this would really be talking about
making profits or winning where gamblers which they do mainly be thinking and pursuing on which this is the reason on why this market is really that booming up or really that increasing.
Reading up on others experience would also help yourself to be wary on what are those other people experience specially on addiction and how they do able to cope up and recover and to those who do completely fail
on doing so and ended up miserable.

The only thing that you should really bare in mind is that you should really know on when to stop and when to have a pause on the time that you are seeing that things starts out to be messy
specially when it comes to finances. Its impossible that you wont really be able to notice it out if there's already something wrong on this part.
789  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading not for everyone! on: September 08, 2023, 08:32:11 PM
Just another piece of advise to newbies that just starting their journey with cryptocurrency, crypto trading is not for everyone. If you are unsure of your capabilities to trade it will be beneficial to you to just buy and hold, and be taking each opportunity of every dip on the market to Dollar -Cost-Average.

You're peacefully on track, and not losing out on anything. Trading has sent a bunch of persons back to their past. Cheesy

There is a time for everything, and the bull market is usually the time for holders. I am sure when the bull market returns as we're expecting, if you hold good project's you will make a good profit.

Don't follow the crowd, follow what has profitably proven to work for you. In cryptocurrency market it is time that makes the difference in our profit-making.
Right on, trading isn't for everyone but everyone can be an investor and a holder. There's the track for those that are frustrated with trading and that's why you don't have to quit the entire market just because it's not working for you. Those that have experienced and thought that trading is the only way to go have already seen that they've got no future with that. But there's nothing wrong in trying as long as you can afford to lose the money that you're putting there as your capital. While in holding and following the strategies like DCA, you'll just have to endure the painful market for a while and will see how effective it is in the long run. We've been there and done that and that's why it's a good and perfect strategy for those folks that don't like to see themselves lose with their trades. In short, you'll still have to trade but that's only the time you'll do when you're going to buy and take profits.
Yes traders need to learn market analysis and use different strategies to buy any crypto at low price and sell it instantly at high price. Not everyone can do this so not everyone is a trader. But it doesn't take much analysis to hold to invest because no matter how much the price of crypto falls, it recovers again.  So if you hold for a long time, there is very less chance of loss from there. But one thing to note in this case is that you cannot invest in sheet coins. Always focus on the top coins.
Not to be able to do so doesnt mean that its not really completely for you but instead it is something a skill that needs to be worked on and get some experience via actual dealing within the market.
It is really just that there are people who do easily give up and there are those people who do persevere on whatever things that they do really have in mind or what their goal or target is. We do know that
this market is unpredictable and there's no way that you could really be able to know on where it would be going.Therefore, chances for you to be able to experience those losses are really that common.

The thing on here is that you do know on how to make out adjustments and would act accordingly. There are really just those people who are really that rushing into things when it comes
on making money and this what makes them impulsive on the time that they would really be trying out to engage on the likes of trading, they do expect and hope that much
without even trying to think on whats the real deal.
790  Other / Off-topic / Re: Keeping your gambling habit a secret. on: September 07, 2023, 10:45:32 PM
Did not get it bro… What can I do dirty in gambling, that will force me to keep in secret that I gamble? Loosing money? But truth will come out anyway. Cheating - that is a big no.
Some people that are addicted hide their gambling activities because they believe if people notice the amount they spend on gambling, then they will be blamed. Some people might end up spending money that is supposed to be spent on their family members on gambling, which is wrong, so they won’t want their family members to know they are spending that amount of money on gambling.

Also, for some people, gambling is illegal in their religion, and most of them want to gamble, so they will rather gamble and keep it secret so that people won’t see them as bad people, so they decide to keep it a secret.

Some people do spend huge amounts of money on gambling, but they are not always comfortable telling people they have spent that amount of money on gambling, so they will just decide to keep it a secret. Some people do tell their friends that they gamble, but they will never show their friends their gambling account transaction history.

^^ I think even in this era in general people actually do not see gambling as a good act. That’s why a lot of people do not want to admit that they are gamblers. They understand that if they tell this to others, they might actually talk a lot of trash. It is better if they do not introduce those problems in their life. I bet they just want to gamble in peace. And sometimes when people are starting, they lose a lot of money. So they do not want other people to know that they are losing money as well. And that is also the reason why some people will never show the transaction history to others just like you said. I also definitely think that it is better to not gamble with the money that people earn by doing hard work.

They wanted to play in peace and without the criticism of anyone, though there are different approach in terms of gambling activities maybe there are some who are open and not caring to whatever other people will speak behind their back, and for some, it's better to keep your gambling activities on your own and minding your own business will allow you to freely play and enjoy whatever game you are involved with, different perspectives and different overviews and opinions.
Even myself do really want nor like on having peace on everything i do on which i dont really like to hear up things from other people basing up on what im doing. You cant really be able to avoid with those judgmental
type or kind of person that do exist on this world specially on a community who do highly frowned upon when it comes to gambling on which they do really always having that kind of bad impression towards it.
On the time that you've been known that you are engaging with gambling or having that kind of activity then they would really be having that bad views on you which its not something that i do really like.

Myself would really be keeping it as a secret but actually there's nothing i do need to worry considering that i do only play on online casinos on which no one would really be able to know that you are really that doing gambling and even if they do? then its none of their business since its your money that had been used not theirs. There are really just those people who cant really stop their mouths on telling bullshits.
If you dont really mind on other peoples words or wont really be that easily cry out then there's no thing that you should worry on. Gambling is for fun and not something that would really be
a hindrance for you to play just because of other peoples sayings or words.
791  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Government vs Bitcoin on: September 07, 2023, 09:18:46 PM
Governments frequently misunderstand bitcoin innovation.
This impression arises from the disproportionate bans and regulations they enact.
Although occasionally the bitcoin regulations appear unreasonable, I posit that bitcoin is not as detrimental as suggested. Please correct me if I am wrong.
You would really be able to expect on what the government would really be looking on something which cant be controlled and something that couldn't really be traced up in speaking about transactions. We know that

government doesnt really like on something like this, they do really like on having tracking on everything and be wary on whats happening and with Bitcoins or crypto existence then it did really make out some other story.
Some do sees it to be that just fine but most of government do really see this to be something that do really conflicts out on their interest and this is why its not really that shocking on having that kind of banning and
prohibited kind of decision towards it. Somewhat despite of the government that had been making out those issues but still there's still that huge interest and adoption from the community.

It isnt really created on the purpose on getting against with the government but rather it do really focuses out on how to make out transactions without 3rd party involved.
It did really just turns out that government doesnt really like on things which cant be traced nor be controlled. This is why they would really be normally be having this kind of impression towards it.
They would really be throwing those shit issues just to make this market go down but they had failed out.
792  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your perception about crypto games? on: September 07, 2023, 08:59:38 PM
There are varied crypto games we tend to be fond of that does rely on bullrun to maintain playbase. Another words they perform fine in bull market.

What are your views or perceptions about such games.
I don't think so that crypto games or crypto gambling rely in bull run or bear run but their performance will depend on how good their service was. My perception about them is that they are fun and they are a great addition in the crypto world, making crypto more in demand but we only need to be careful on them, as they are addictive.

Our goal must only be to play for fun and not to lose a lot of money or destroy our lives. If we want to make money, crypto investing and crypto trading can mainly provide it better because skills and knowledge can matter here. It wasn't controlled by a single entity only like gambling where they can manipulate the results easily.
Yes, its a business venture that could run whatever the market condition it would be.On owners perspective or pov then profitability might really be that affecting them specially on the coins that they are stashing but it would really be basing up on fiat value but if they would be tending to hold then it wont really be such an issue or a huge problem.They are running a business and it would really be just that right that they would really be affected with those ups and downs in the market but it doesnt really come into a point that they would be halting up their operation which we know that as long there would be gamblers who would really be making use of their platform then they would really be definitely be able to earn more than in crypto value since the market had declined on a bear market and on the time that the market will really be making some change trend then it would really be adding up some nasty increase of their capital or revenue when that happens. The only key on here is that as long they do have players or someone who do play into their platform then that what surely counts.
793  Economy / Economics / Re: Are you risking investment in other things? on: September 07, 2023, 08:11:45 PM
I have bitcoin, some alts & a couple of real estate properties. I am not interested in diversifying into anything else. The majority of my net worth is in bitcoin & I intend to keep it that way. The current price will look like chumps change in a couple of years.

And some alts. I think that investing in some alts is a good idea. It doesn't have to be a big investment, depending on someone's possibilities, but setting aside 5% (more or less) for some interesting projects can pay off in the long run. And there are some good projects around that have a nice potential. In every bull run some new alt makes incredible progress.
Indeed, I do not recommend anyone to invest in altcoins as they are riskier than bitcoin, but it would not be so bad if we just invest a small part of our capital in them. Although altcoins have great risks, if we choose the right coin, it is clear that its profits will be very significant compared to bitcoin. Many people only focus on bitcoin and think that all altcoins are useless, which is really a waste because they are missing out on bigger opportunities.

We invest in cryptocurrencies to make profits, so we should not be too stubborn and ignore opportunities outside of bitcoin. As long as we invest a small amount, it will not cause too much damage to us.

There's nothing wrong to invest at altcoin it would really depends on the coin you would invest with, cause for me I've invested in altcoin before but only for a quick-flip it's not much but I've still profit. But still it's not advisable for a long term investment due to its volatility is random like it really depends on the project some would literally rugpull it. Well I agree that maybe your spare capital or money maybe you could try small amount first for your own experience to altcoins if it suits for you so you can compare it to Bitcoin, what I mean is that you can make your own strategy with these coins. Still if you want to secure just stick with BTC.

Honestly, I don't see anything wrong with altcoins but it's confusing how many people consider them to be trash. If we need security, an asset, a currency of the future, then bitcoin is the choice. But if we are here for profit, then altcoins are an opportunity worth trying, just like those who took the risk of investing in bitcoin when the price was below 1 USD. We want great success, we need to step out of our comfort zone.

Long-term investment with altcoins, I think ETH will also be a good choice, the rest should only be used for speculation, do not put your trust in any altcoin projects, there is no technology associated with them, they are just empty promises. Bitcoin should still be the bulk of our portfolio because its safety and returns aren't too bad.
They are really that pertaining into those coins which are shit and just simply those pumps and dumps and this is why they do really make out some generalization on how shitty those altcoins are without even trying out

to make some exemption of course into those top rankings which we could really definitely say that it would really be that still a good option on dealing with other alternatives on which it could potentially bring out profits on the time that you do make out some good decisions and choosing on which one. Diversification when it comes to investment and business would really be always that recommendable. This doesnt only limit out on Bitcoin and some altcoins in the market but also in other traditional investments which we do know. As long you do have the money and the funds that could be used then go ahead and diversify.

The only main thing what people been lacking is the money that they could really make use as a capital because we do have that basic ideas on where things should be put in and where to work on.
It is really just that people doesnt have that sufficient money or  funds for them to begin with. You cant really just make yourseld dive into those things without money or capital of course.

Most of the gambling companies I have come across do state the age of users that are qualify to play gambling, but this is something that   is not very strict that under age can stay away from it, even with the restrictions of age people who are not up to the age of gambling still go ahead of playing gambling because the age thing does not really matter that gambling companies follow up, that's why young people have opportunity of playing gambling without any restrictions.
All gambling sites have age restrictions on their websites, but underage people will still go ahead and gamble on those sites. As it is clearly stated, even if gambling sites make KYC mandatory, some underage people will still find a way to gamble, so I think it will be kind of difficult for gambling sites to stop underage people from gambling. But we can see some physical casinos that still allow underage gamblers, which is very wrong. If anybody visits the gambling site and they notice the person might be underage,  they should request a means of identification to confirm the person’s identity. If the person is truly underage, then the person shouldn’t be allowed to gamble.
Yes because some of gambling site still not implement KYC or they implemented it but then they will still gamble because the KYC will only for people who earns a lot and withdraw a lot too. If they are not too active and not going to withdraw so much money then it is not a problem at all . All website has a age bracket especially if it is needed some decision making and also based on govt regulations.
If nothing suspicious is found by a gambler then KYC is not very important if there is no restriction. But if any casino is restricted by government rule then KYC must be done. In recent times almost all casinos are advised to do KYC. There are some casinos and gambling platforms where KYC is mandatory but gambling can be conducted without KYC. This is because they don't consider it essential for those users. But if suddenly large amount transactions are done and if they find it suspicious then all matters related to KYC must be thoroughly monitored.
There's always that kind of threshold since these platforms are really that centralized and been regulated on which means that money laundering would be always the concern and on the time that there's someone who

do make out some huge deposits then this is the time that they would really be asking out for some verifications which its not really that something new anymore. This isnt limited on gambling sites but also in exchange platforms too where KYC level 2 would be asked out if ever you are making or transacting huge amounts already. Speaking about age to gamble then we would really be always sticking into those age where considered legal or someone to be mature enough which is playing around 18-21 years old depending on a certain country but it would definitely be playing up within these numbers.

Now that we are really that on a high tech era where accessibility was so easy then it would really be just that hard to completely be able to filter out those youngster for them to play.
We would really be to say that those kids could potentially be able to play without being caught or filtered out.

There are few factors that leads to unfavourable trading, these factors includes Greed, and chasing a trend, Traders are expected to encounter Challenges during trading and relating these challenges with people's experiences can be the key in solving the challenge, 
Sticking to the trading plan is also good to avoid unfavourable trade as changing plans in the middle of a trade Can really lead to a loss in trade.
Changing trading plans is not always detrimental, this depends on the market, if you do have to change plans, there is nothing wrong as long as we can minimize losses. Only you know all trading plans because everyone's plans are different.

However, if you have written down your trading plan, and market conditions are still supportive, stick to the plan. Yes, of course you have to avoid responses that involve emotions from you such as fear or greed. Everyone who wants to trade must be able to train themselves to apply discipline and consistency when executing and exiting trades.
There should be a set of back up plans and its true that there are really moments on which it cant really be avoided that you would be needing to adjust your trading analysis due to sudden market sentiment change.

We know that there are news that do suddenly pops out and we know that fundamentals and news could really be making out that significant impact when it  comes to its price movement. Losing trades is inevitable or something that would be casual.Therefore, you would be needing to adjust accordingly and would really be able to have those back up plans. Emotion would really be your main problem because if you do lack
experience the emotion will really be the ones would be stirring your initial plans. Market is really hard to predict and this what causes for our trading analysis to be fucked up.

The best thing to be done is to move on and secure or find another entry for you to take. Dont be impulsive and treating this to be like gambling on which you would really be chasing up losses.
You should really be that knowing go with the flow and adjust accordingly.
796  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Constant wins in the casino for several days, then constant losses. Noticed?! on: September 06, 2023, 08:28:38 PM
Playing for many years, I observe a certain series of wins and losses. It looks like it every time! Also in casino chats, a lot of people talk about it.

Most of the time the casino takes the money. But when the winning session comes, on this day many slots give you a solid win, it is impossible to lose. This successful session can last several days.
As soon as this ends, absolutely all slots begin to take money.

How do you win and lose?

There are all sorts of complex algorithms and advanced psychological tricks that casinos have honed over the years. They will run complex experiments with the aim of getting players to deposit more money and play for longer so they become more addicted. The behavior of gambling is very repetitive, but they also want to lure you towards in-game bonuses, which can seem attainable and they are - but only once the right thresholds have been reached for your account, to feed you back a little amount of winnings. There is also natural variance which will take place like most things in life - you might be able to string together 3 green lights on the way to work for 3 days in a row, there is nothing divine happening, it's just a random lucky string of separate events.

I think the house edge itself is telling us that we are not going to win against this casinos. However, if let's say you have constantly winner, regardless of the amount, then you might think that you have found something to beat the system.

But that is not the case, it has something to do with luck. So maybe you win like for several days. But with randomness, sooner or later you are going to have a string of bad luck. And all the money that you win, you will just donate it back to the casino and then the chase started and you lose more money and most likely be fall in the addiction because you want to experience that same winning streak again which might not happen.
There's no way on beating the house and this is something that you should really be bare up in mind because there's no way that you would really be able to beat up the house no matter what. you might be looking that

having a good round or session on the time you do play gambling on which it results into certain win but you should realize that it is really just that because you are really that lucky on that particular time.
Its always that good on having that kind of realistic approach when it comes to gambling because there's no way that you could really be able to know on whats ahead and able to know on when to stop
and when to call it a day. Constant wins? Its impossible or something that would be doubtful to happen because thats not how gambling works but if you are that extremely lucky
then you should really know on when to stop.

Secure out profits when you are in greens and call it a day because not all the time you would really be this way because gambling could really easily fucked you up and give out that kind of
negative situation or outcome in the end of the line if you arent that mindful on stopping midway.
797  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin achievement on: September 06, 2023, 07:34:53 PM
then my initial life was not positive, I don't know what to do with my life. one day my friend encourage me to invest on Bitcoin despite my Reservation about Bitcoin, I eventually became persuaded. then I purchase a Bitcoin in 2017 and invested it. from there I became engaged with a forum and began contributing over time, since then I become an established Bitcoin investor.

   Guess what, ever since my friend introduced me to Bitcoin and I invested on it, things have never remain the same with me. investing in Bitcoin have given me what I could imagine to achieve in short period of time.
(1) I live alone in the house. but now, I have wife and children.
(2) I was living in a rented apartment. but now, I live in my own house.
(3)  I was tricking to places. but now, Bitcoin have giving me a car.
(4) before I don't have any source of income. but now, Bitcoin is my source of income.

friends, in short period of time, BTC have given me what I needed to have as a man. what is, your own achievement's with Bitcoin.
This is totally limited into those people who had been able to accumulate Bitcoin into those early years specially into those who had invested tons or lots when its still cheap. This isnt only applicable on Bitcoin alone but also

in other coins that we do have in the market on which it could really give out that kind of achievement but of course it would really be entirely be depending on how much you had risks on a certain coin/token
on the time that it was just starting on which not anyone could be able to hit that spot specially when a certain solid project or does have potential is just starting up. It would really be giving out that
life changing opportunity if you are really that doing your best on making investment but of course it should really be done with care and proper research.

You cant really just throw out your cash and invest on everything because we know that not all the time that investments ends up positive. Speaking about Bitcoin achievement then i did
really be able to fully bought a car in mortgage until i have finished it for 5 years using up my income here on crypto space which i could say that it is really that an achievement.
798  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling by financial dependents. on: September 06, 2023, 06:21:55 PM
I agree. Even he's already in legal age to gamble, the point is, he's still depending on his parents financially and the money given is meant for his studies and not for leisure.

Thus, it's normal for parents to be worried if they became aware that their son is into gambling. Therefore, an advice of looking for a side job is better rather than relying on his mother's given allowance. This way, the son can have a budget if he wants to entertain himself through gambling.

When I reached the age of majority, I could provide for myself, in which case you begin to look at money with a completely different responsibility. Of course, I tried different strategies in gambling at this time, because I was looking for a way to get rich quick, but I did it with extreme caution and worried even about losing small amounts on a loss. So it is possible that when a teenager starts earning money on his own, then his responsibility in gambling will be higher.

Yes, when you reach adulthood, you will have the opportunity to look for and get a job and like you said, you will be able to support yourself, albeit not fully, but at least you won't be so dependent on your mother. You say that you're looking for ways to get rich from gambling? I honestly don't believe in this at all, the principle is that gambling was invented just for fun friends and nothing more than that, so don't go too far looking for winnings there, especially if your goal is to get rich quick. Okay, I understand that you'll be using your own money here and won't be using your parents' dependent money, but still we should have a healthier view of gambling.

Lastly, I honestly don't think there's any strategy that can increase the odds of winning, that's just nonsense, and if that were true it would mean a lot of people getting rich but the fact is you probably also know that the rich get poor and the poor get poorer, that's gambling. So the bottom line is don't expect anything from gambling except fun, because it's purely about luck.
While gambling is mostly luck, I think games like Poker and Blackjack require talent and strategy. I've discovered that odds, game theory, and behavioral psychology can help, but not much. Even with ability and strategy, the odds are usually against one. I agree: bet just what you can afford to lose and see gambling as entertainment, not a source of money. I admire your care about gambling health.
A must thing to be done specially if you are really that dealing with gambling, it isnt really just that something that could bring out sure profits or winning but rather mind off about on the entertainment and enjoyment

that it gives on which it would really be just that normal that you would really be winning but majority of the time you would be losing up money specially if you are really that dealing against with the house.
Its true that once you do make yourself that get involved with poker or blackjack which it does really needing up that skills and experience the it is really that something a part of gambling which you would really be making use of your experience for your upperhand but since everything could really be still that random specially on pulling those cards then luck would really be still a huge or main factor.

Basing up on the condition or situation based up on op then it would really be just that simple on which as a parent and seeing his son/children does have that kind of gambling addiction and tends to deny
on being that addicted one but spending that much then it would really be that just right to lessen up his allowance and speaks about the main reason which it might help for him to
realize on the wrong thing that hes been doing.
799  Economy / Economics / Re: To afford personal education or a property? Where to allocate funds? on: September 06, 2023, 05:16:21 PM
Let's suppose you have a limited budget which can be used only for one of the alternatives below:

What is the best investment, in your opinion? To use this money to pay for your education, so you can conclude a superior course and achieve a higher degree, having access to a wide jobs' market, or to use that money to acquire an apartment, house or piece of land, so you can make a passive income from this?

It brings the following question up: what is more valued in life: to be or to have? Does it make someone fulfilled to have while not being or being without having anything?

I chose to invest in property rather than personal education, the reason is simple, that's because property can be mortgaged to the bank if needed, Apart from that, there is a big possibility that the value will continue to increase in the next few years, but it's different from personal education. however, I'm sure some people have different thoughts about the above options and educational background is a major factor.
When you do have an educational background then you would really be having the advantage on which you could really be able to apply for a better job but its true that it wont really be that might enough on bringing you

into a state on which you could really be able to buy with your property on which this is usually that brings you on becoming on having that 8-5 job kind of cycle and only a few could really be able to get out with that shackle on which it would really be just that normal that you would really be having that kind of mindset on getting out and wont really be ending up on this kind of cycle forever. Not all does have that degree would really be successful in life but i agree on what you have said that there would really be people who do really see out that great importance on having a diploma or degree in someones life which its partly true but in the sense that
this is the talks about on survival then you would really be choosing up on having a property on which it isnt something that anyone could easily obtain.

You would really be thinking about education to be your second priority and this one would be the first because we know that once you do have a property then you could really be able to make out that an investment or
assets on which it could bring out that income which could really be passive and this is something that much preferred.
800  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Typical scenario when you are losing on: September 05, 2023, 09:12:38 PM
Some of the things you mentioned like waking up very early without food in your stomach or gambling late at night, I didn't go as far as that. But there was a time I used to gamble a lot on sport betting, I would spend hours picking and analysing my games only for it to be ruined by one games just few hours after kickoff. This kept on and on and my losses were piling up, it got to a point that I decided to take a break to clear my head and it worked. Whenever I'm doing something and I realize that it's taking much of my time and not giving me the right results, I would just abandon it and maybe come back some other time.

I can't stand skipping breakfast and depriving myself from going to sleep when my body is already looking for the bed. I feel like there's some sort of addiction in this kind of situation, as he is trying to harm himself, disregarding what's essential to feed ones desire. Well, I hope it does not get worse.
I know losing is very frustrating, but there's only one thing I know that's been very effective for many people, just like you I tend to take a break and have a breather, eat delicious food and drink a little, sleep early and bounce back in the morning. Chasing losses no matter how huge or how big it is, doesn't end up well.
Getting annoyed or having that great disappointment would really be leading to this but it is really that actually on a type of person because there are ones who could really be able to do such thing about skipping food and

sleep but not for all because even myself considered out on having those kind of moments where you do really have that huge disappointment on your gambling activity or even on those simple trading with markets but never ever that goes into my mind on skipping out my meal or having no sleep because i do have in mind that health is wealth and if you do lose up money and do such foolish things like putting up your health on danger then it wont really be that worth on doing so. You are really just making things even more worst aside on losing money.,We do know that being healthy should really be your main priority and never ever make yourself
that goes into that certain extent or simply stop it out.

Losing is inevitable on gambling and this is why its always been important on making use of the funds on which you can really afford to lose because on the time that you've come up with this
management then you wont really be finding yourself to be that impulsive.
