Bitcoin beat gold this year, does no mean it is better than gold. Gold has beat bitcoin in other years. Gold and bitcoin belong to the same internal value category and will shine during turmoils.

BTCBTCBTC is BTCBTCBTC and gold is gold. They're way to different from each other and each has its own pros and cons. Instead of focusing which is better, why not get your portfolio to have both. Spreads the risk IMO.
Very true and we cant really compare a currency and a precious metal they are really different from each other.If i do really have the money to invest i would definitely choose these two things because i could really see the potential profits specially for long term.
7902  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin without Altcoin ? on: December 25, 2016, 03:14:18 PM
Nowadays i don't think if those altcoin can exist without bitcoin because bitcoin can handle itself without this altcoins we can use bitcoin by just trading it into fiat money or by playing it into gambling websites, Altcoin for me is just a alternative rout for bitcoin be exchange to had better profit.

As quoted bitcoin can handle itself without the altcoins, but at the early days of bitcoin existence altcoins helped it grow with potential. Also everything requires competence, same as that competing with altcoins bitcoin grew.
At my perspective Altcoins don't have any effect on Bitcoin. Every month there are new Altcoins introduced in ICOs and they come and go but I don't see that it affected Bitcoin in anyway. Bitcoin has the largest market share in terms of users/owners, also not all people are traders so you can see how it cannot affect the price outcome of Bitcoin.
It would really not be affected since Bitcoin could able to stand without altcoin.Infact those altcoins is dependent on bitcoin in clearly speaking and they do rely on bitcoin value to have their value. Bitcoin is the father of all cryptocurrency maybe those alts would die but bitcoin would still remain.You are right every month or week new coins are being listed or launched.

I wont risk that money and i would not play the money that are being reserved for my education no matter what. People do have normal thinking or mind would definitely do the same thing and i could say for those people that would able to touch and spend the money for school they are too dumb enough or stupid enough to waste those money just for gambling.
7904  Economy / Marketplace / Re: How to make 1 bitcoin in a month or 2? on: December 25, 2016, 02:47:53 PM
You can earn 1 bitcoin in a month if you are smart investor. Example you are a hard working member here and you earn good amount of profits from signature campaigns and you do roll overs or compounding by using your profit here to invest in altcoin trading and then the profits that you get on altcoin trading will be use as a investment on different legit sites. At the start, it sounds hard to get that strategy but if you have self discipline and you are a hard working guy then it will be possible for you Roll Eyes.
I actually im earning good amount monthly using that method, but too much safe buy if you want to earn enough profit you will take the risk, besides even you failed 1 or 2 times you learn so for me it's not lost.
Trading alts is difficult and risky since many of those coins never get any traction at all, so I would not recommend altcoin trading to anyone until they have mastered bitcoin trading and are able to brig profits every month.

And as of now trading of alt coin is not going to be good at all as we know while the price of bitcoin is pumping. Values of alt coins are dumping also, that's why it is better if you aren't going to be focused enough with alts today or it will depend on the trader on how stable he is getting bitcoins for each trades that he do.

It's true, each new day becomes harder to earn 1 BTC in one month. The coin price is increasing a lot and trading with altcoins is becoming very risk, more risk than before... I think trading isn't a good suggestion to make 1-2 BTC in one month. It's not all people that can make this profit, not everybody can make a lot of money monthly. The best method is still to work, earn a salary in BTCs, to earn more, must invest on something to earn few % interest monthly.

Or just find a real job that your time will not be wasted for looking for some decent job online without skills to offer. And for each time that you'll receive salary, bitcoin is the best investment that you can do for by just simply buying of bitcoins. That can make the value grow of your bitcoins but it cannot be multiplied unless you'll buy again.
Seeking online job without specific skills would really be useless because you will not be accepted easily and we all know that competition here on online world is also high the same on physical world.Having a day stable job would somehow guarantee you to make money and we should not fully rely on bitcoin itself.

There are easy hiring online which does require you to do some researches and it is applicable to those people who doesn't have enough skills but still wanting to land a job online. As long as you know how to communicate well, I'm pretty sure that you will be accepted easily. Finding online job is like an auction the lesser amount you are offering for your fee the more opportunities will come to you.
Lets say you do offer the lowest price among the others but still it wouldnt be a guarantee that you will be definitely chosen by the employer because they will definitely choose the most veteran member and do have a good portfolio compared to you and i could say it does really have a competition just like on physical world that you would really do your best to be chosen.
7905  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: We need an incentive to make first world population use Bitcoin on: December 25, 2016, 02:36:22 PM
A few things that would help spread awareness and expand adoption are:
1) More bitcoin debit and credit cards
2) More bitcoin ATMs
3) More retailers and service providers that accept bitcoin. I know that Tesla accepts bitcoin, but imagine if General Motors or Mercedes accepted it? Both manufacturers have vast, international user bases. I think there are some synergies that could be cross marketed with one of their hybrid or electric vehicles. And even if you could not purchase a new vehicle with bitcoin, a step in the right direction would be to accept car note or lease payments in bitcoin.

I don't know about debit/credit cards, people will have to buy bitcoins to deposit on a card, don't look pratical... They can skip the bitcoin and save money.

ATM for me are a little bit useless right now.

The real point here is make the people accept bitcoin in the commerce, I think we can start by online stores and things like that since the block timer isn't pratical to local stores.

About the cars... Who have 50+ bitcoin to buy a car? I don't see much people buying.
You have a point but the possibilities of being adopted is still there because it would really depend on car owners or company to accept or adopt bitcoin just like what tesla did but i think it would really takes time since people doesnt really know too much about bitcoin and only a small percentage all over the entire population is aware on bitcoin existence.
7906  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Dice Games Are So Much Fun on: December 23, 2016, 02:17:32 PM
fun if you win, but when you lose you will feel angry especially when you lose your money at dice game you can't control yourself
Dice is fun in general but for some people it could not be fun when they lose in a game, however that does not automatically mean that we lack control in gambling that's why we lose, it is just part of the game and we have nothing to do about it to change the reality.

While in gambling, you must ensure that you have the discipline for you to be able to stay longer as what you desired.
Especially when they loses big amount of money and keep trying to chase it back the fun at first will be replace of addiction making your life in such a mess. If you really wanted to have just some fun just use spare money and whatever happens to your game just quit and never play back to use another one.

chasing losses to win them back never works in games like dice where you are gambling based on your luck alone.
but i believe that it is good to do it in other games like sports betting or generally speaking in games that are based on skills and you know that you always have a better chance of winning based on your skills and if you lose once you can in 10 times afterwards.

Are you very sure that luck is the most important thing in getting profits in gambling ..?? . Then how can we know that we have a good luck in gambling ..?? . You need to know that gambling can indeed give you an advantage, but the advantage we can get if we can do something good. Well what I mean is using a good strategy and can control themselves. Because it is something that should have, if we don't have it then gambling will be a place for us to get the loss
You do have a point but most gambling games does really fully rely on luck and there are only some games that do need skills and experience even though those games would really still require luck in able to win and we all know gambling games is a matter of chance and results are total random therefore we could really not able to predict the next results. On dice game i could say its really fun at the start but when you already play it for how many times it is somehow boring already.

If you know the risk on violating the government you would somehow be scared on doing such thing like playing gambling because you know that you might be end up on jail if you got caught by government.Using vpn would really help you out to play gambling games without being caught but it wont affect your playout on playing gambling.
7908  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is there a good modified martingale strategy? on: December 23, 2016, 06:43:25 AM
I have been trying out the martingale strategy for dice but was wondering if anyone has a good modified martingale strategy or any other ideas to try.

Talking about dice game, if the original martingale isn't effective how far the modified one? Still they are playing under the provably fair system "in every rolls" so nothing changed. Martingale is not a technology that can be modified. The output of martingale will always be the same.

If you are looking on how can you increase the chances of your winning by using martingale then try sports betting instead. It's far more effective in sposts betting than putting that method in those house edge gambling games. The analyzation of course will come on yourself based on your research and proper betting. Not an assurance that it can give you always win but it can take your for a long run with a good win/loss record.
you're obviously true that the point of this thread is OP has looking new strategy to increase his winning and i think strategy in gambling only makes people more confident when they starting gambling but regarding the results it will be unpredictable however using martingale for sport betting too have high risk because if you putting your money for high odds then it will automatically reduce your chance to win your bets because usually on sport betting high odds have low chance to win

in every type of betting high odds has a low chance of winning. That's how casinos make money, by paying out less than the actual odds.
Its just a common sense thing already and no gambling site doesnt have a house edge because they get profits on that.For me i could say there no good modified martingale strategy because theres no such good ways or methods that would able to make you profits overtime and thats the reality on playing gambling and i dont really use that methods.
7909  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: how much time you have spent gambling? on: December 23, 2016, 04:59:56 AM
im spending almost 12 hours on gambling with a different game as long as im winning and getting a profit from it and not losing too much money. money is so precious for me thats why im risking it to make it grow more. playing gambling is not really risky as long as you have knowledge and guts on playing it and also gambling will make you realize what is your really aim when playing gambling. there's a two type of person in gambling the fun/entertainment purposes only and the money/profit seeker Cheesy
a game like poker usually takes longer than any other games to gamble
there is a lot of  tournaments which  mostly required to play for hour in poker
i just not sure if there is someone who count their own betting history like this.
you're right, maybe poker can spend a longer time than other gambling. Well, I might be able to spend up to 1 to 2 hours just to play poker. Well, I've long gamble, and maybe I play about 4 hours if all gambling. but, I do not play regularly gambling, I mean the week - Saturday, but I only play it when I'm bored, or are on vacation.
One or two hours is still a short time in poker game
If you play at some tournament you might have to spend 10 to 20 hours! Or even all day long!
Poker so far is the only game that cost the most long time to spent in gambling
It has the most unique fun way to gamble rather than any other games.

Poker game is really time consuming and as you said 2 hours wont be enough and also in tournament it will took long hours before it would be finished.Poker is enjoyable though even it consumes too much time but on my part i do only poker games in a short period of time or shall we say having 1 game or 2 is already enough and im not exposing too much on playing it.
7910  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you feel shameful for being a gambler? on: December 23, 2016, 04:00:32 AM
Go guys!
In many cultures and countries is gambling consider as a bad thing which only the poorest and silliest ones do. Many gamblers try to hide that they gamble from their friends and families and feel really shameful for that. Do you consisted gambling as a bad thing? Do you feel shameful or proud for being a gambler? If it is shame what you feel what do you about it? How do you hide you're a gambler and who do you hide it from?
Let others know!
for me no! why be shamful ? ya may be in my round people said that gambling is banned.. but i happy with this
gambling just for the poorest and silliest , i not sure with this because many rich people use it too
Poor or rich it doesnt really depend on what kind of situation of financial do you have since gambling is really design for all and designed for entertainment and i dont know why would people would be ashamed of playing it. Theres no point regarding on this question but possible thing that would be shameful if you got broke on playing excessive gambling.
7911  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know when to stop? on: December 22, 2016, 02:38:59 PM
It would really depend on how much you really are willing to lose. Having a daily or weekly limit and sticking to it is the best option to not lose too much but it would take much discipline. I believe everyone here has experienced running really low and yet still feel that you'd get it back on the next roll.
Strong discipline in ones self is really hard specially when you are in a middle of the game because emotions would really urge you up to play even more and if you lose the motives or aims on taking back your losses will surely come out and if you dont have strong self awareness you will do the common thing on which you will definitely chase up your losses.
7912  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why in some countries Bitcoin is banned on: December 22, 2016, 01:34:26 PM
In bank statement that i heard about bitcoin is Bitcoin is not a legal tender of any country. Any transaction through Bitcoin or any other crypto-currency is a punishable offense And China is the biggest marketcoin for bitcoin now some of countries are bannind and unbanning bitcoin because of its potential to help others they banning it because their goverment don't want them to use other currency.

Those countries that are banning bitcoins sees that it is just a tool for illegal transactions because they are not looking at its beautiful characteristics that it can be useful and helpful with the governments economy. And for those who are unbanning bitcoins, they just realized that the qualities that bitcoins have will give benefits to them.

I think only a few countries that they are allowed to use Bitcoin. I don't know what revenue that country government is getting from Bitcoin transaction. The main reason why bitcoin is not accepting in all country means they will not get any income from this bitcoin transaction that is why this Bitcoin is banned in many countries.
This is one of the main thing why some countries would not tend to adopt fully on bitcoin because they know they cant make profits out of it and also the taxation would be surely affected if people would found out the main benefits of bitcoin on which they could able not to pay taxes but adoption of bitcoin will still continue and grow furthermore on the future and we cant really top that.
7913  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you feel shameful for being a gambler? on: December 21, 2016, 12:07:47 PM
It would depend on which country do you live in and what type of people are surrounding you because some people see a gambler is a bad person because they usually see the negative effects or negative side of being a gambler on which they make their life miserable thats why some just like to hide themselves but if you are living on a place on which gambling is everywhere then it feels like a freedom.
7914  Economy / Services / Re: We help you to earn Bitcoins Easily - Details inside on: December 21, 2016, 11:39:17 AM
OP, your strategy is not only dangerous for you, but for your clients.

Its even riskier than getting them to deposit you the funds then tipping then to you and you sending back the profits.

I have checked many section of this forum since i became a member and i think this post should be in the gambling or investor based game but i might be wrong because i am a newbie.
@ OP, is there any way i can loose money from your investment ?

As stated in the OP,  gambling is a risky business, and isn't a assured profit. I wouldn't invest in it. There is no such thing as professional gambling, except for when it comes to betting. If it was this however, they would state it. Its either unprofessional, untrustworthy or a scam.
We have the same thing on our minds on which i would not mind to risk my money to someone and i dont really believe that theres a professional way on doing gambling which guarantee you profits in able for them to make money to their clients.Its too risky and i would rather choose to play manually on my own control rather than letting other handles my money atleast i dont have regrets even i lose my bankroll in my own hands.
7915  Economy / Gambling / Re: BITDICE CASINO - 90BTC MAX WIN, 1BTC JACKPOT, BET BACK, DAILY EVENTS! on: December 21, 2016, 10:52:35 AM
SITE UPDATE 20 DECEMBER


Guys, we've added local language chat rooms, currently you can speak local in Dutch, French, Russian and Indonesian.

[NEW] Local-language chat rooms.
[NEW] Users with level 0 can answer on PM's sent from higher user.

Regards,
Alex.

Does this mean that there will be chances that there is gonna be a mod for each local chatroom as it will be hard for mods that dont speak the respective languge to monitor the chatroom. Im kinda interested to be one if there is gonna be as I might be going to apply for one of the rooms , well I had few hours daily to monitor it

Of course chat moderator for each local chatroom is neeed, I believe Alex has planned to hire some mods but as I see the local chatroom is still has low traffic/activity. He may hire some mods when it has great activities everyday.

i dont think it is truly needed, since i think one chatroom is enough and the only thing needed to emphasize is to use the english as the main language on the site so global people can understand easily the main topic or happenings in the chatbox, and the only thing needed there is a moderator that can eliminate those people who doesn't follow the english language rule, bitdice devs should really think for it so theres no hassle for them to run that one.

I don't think Bitdice will benefit with mono language chatbox.  Remember the goal is to reach as many country as possible and limiting your chatbox to only english speaker will somehow hinder this goal.  FYI, this is a service related business so having chatroom for different languages will make your client feel at home as if they are just breathing in communicating with each other.

To make many chatboxes is good though because you can attract many people on many countries but there is something missing here. That is some information. Because on every chat boxes there will be different topics so by focusing on your local chatboxes and i am sure everyone will lack some good information that people provide on their own chat boxes. Not all people are going to move in and out from the chat boxes. This is what i thought but the chat boxes is already been made so i hope this will be better
Having many chatboxes means that players came from different country and if they could able to saw that they have their own chatbox then players will be comfortable on speaking specially to those people who dont speak english well since we all know that language is really a barrier but thinking of the things that most people already know how to speak english though.
7916  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know when to stop? on: December 19, 2016, 03:17:00 PM
When do you stop? Do you have a daily limit or something?

Yes, I do actually. I'm trying not to gamble more than 2 hrs per day, but sometimes, when participating in poker tournament where I'm among the top players, it's hard to stop, so I play more. My problem with gambling is that it is a time consuming thing, not money consuming like for some others because I play for free mostly or with very small amounts.
I also always set a time limit when I'm playing, to make sure I was not in a state of severe addiction. Well, I always leave about 1-2 hours in gambling every day if I play. when I've won, or lost, when it was more than two hours, then I will stop. Well, that's how I know when I stop playing.
That is really a good self control which you set a particular time on having a limit to completely stop no matter what. This thing will really avoid you from getting being addicted into gambling.Most people couldnt do this kind of thing since when the time limit comes when they are experiencing winning they would not mind already about the limit since they are winning and would decide to play even more.
7917  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is there a trick dice? on: December 19, 2016, 02:51:17 PM
Those tricks will surely bust 99% in the end thats why i dont rely too much on using one of them.There are lots of strategies that do exist on gambling world but none of them wont guarantee you to make profits on steady basis.You cant trick dice game since you cant trick the house itself.Regarding on the video its just a normal martingale theres no special.
yeah considering any tricks wouldn't give you any guarantee to win especially in gambling , you have to think twice whether that trick just wasting your time or not? for me yeah it is, would be better just to roll the dice randomly and watching the outcome. as i never think it could bring you a profit at all , a little bit fun might there , but not as much as when you suffering lost.
Suffering lose is not really fun anymore thats why we should really know how to get out when that time happens.Gambling should be treated as a past time not aiming for money always.Tricks and other methods isnt effective at all times,it may work for others some may not.It does really depend.

I doubt it if OP will pay that 5 btc to winner since he don't want put the prize on escrow.
About your contest, it's because people aren't interested with your game, it's kinda confusing. Also, NLNico already said if your game isn't provably fair, that's mostly the reason why your contest isn't running smooth like you want.

I have huge bitcoins Smiley
Dont worry about it!

It will be convincing if you can signed a message on your so called hot wallet coz anybody can say he owns an address with that big balance but cannot provide a proof to back it up and i doubt someone with that big amount will use betbase to provide a bankroll or using a free script

i'm investor betbase. I have invested  15BTC

You are talking too much OP. Anyone could able to say that he owns that wallet since searching them on blockchain is easy. All you have to do is sign a message that you really own that wallet.Most people here are requesting the same thing too,if you could able to show that maybe we would trust you.

maybe you have huge bankroll for running your dice game but that wouldn't guarantee you will pay us for the contest also because too many issue in your site people will be suspicious you will scam us and also if you are really serious for your project you should be add more feature into your site such as faucet or something else
Its really a sure scam.Try to backread and you will notice he give two hot wallets and we dont know which is true.Its really quite suspicious on why he mentioned two wallets.You are right if hes serious on his site he will add more features and make the design more attractive because its too generic for me.
