81  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know whether its your lucky day? on: May 16, 2017, 09:26:07 AM
Whether it was a lucky day or not we can tell only post factum. There is no way to somehow "test" a day in the morning and predict that this will be a lucky day.  I've seen it many times, when someone wins a lot having a huge luck and then he loses much more than he had won in the same day.

Exactly, there is no way to tell whether its your lucky day but after you've cashed out you can say I've been lucky today. Gamblers superstitions only lead them to lose more money and it really takes a degree of delusion to think you can predict any unknown outcome.

I think the problem is that people think because they've won a lot they will continue winning because they are lucky, its a quick route to losing everything regardless of how well you might have done.
82  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Hoarding or Spending, Which Is More Important in the Cryptocurrecy Ecosystem? on: May 16, 2017, 09:17:06 AM
Hoarders generate value through a reduction in supply whereas spenders generate value through an increase in demand. Currently with sky high transaction fees it is arguable that hoarders are more important since the network can't really support more spenders. But without a general state of crisis there will never be a solution to the scaling issues so in that sense even now the spenders are most important.

84  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: ★★★ GameCredits - The future of in-game monetization ★★★ on: May 16, 2017, 09:02:20 AM
So happy to be invested in GAME before it soars to $100.00 USD.

I first was in at 18 cents a year ago, and today $1.30, and it's just starting with MobileGo.

Been here since the low penny days myself. $100 seems like a very ambitious figure. With that being said, I think there is a lot of appreciation to go. While I'm not necessarily confident in that large of a pump, 5, 10, or even 15 dollars per coin could be a possibility at some point down the line.

Mobile Gaming 54 billion this year.
This is more than the tiny 30 billion Bitcoin has raised in 8 years.

The Gaming Market is FAR LARGER than the Crypto Market
Based in this logic, GAME will dwarf Bitcoin.

Any questions?
 Cool


What makes you think GAME will take a majority share of the mobile gaming market? Even if it is wildly successful surely it can't get more than 1-2% of the entire market right?

Investing in altcoins is the best way to increase your bitcoins as that is the most genuine way to multiply your bitcoins in quick time and if you can afford to take higher risk then you can try your luck in gambling.

Gambling is the way to lose your bitcoin not multiply it. Investing in altcoins is great but if you haven't done your research 100% then its no different from gambling too and a quick way to become a bagholder and lose all your bitcoin.
86  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will Bitcoin be replaced by another cryptocurrency? on: May 16, 2017, 08:49:10 AM
Everything is replaced eventually.
That's possible but the question is when?

That's easy. As with all things, when something better comes along bitcoin will be replaced.

The technology, computer science and programming world doesn't sit still in a vacuum. It won't take as long as people believe.
Who will take over then, I guess Ethereum has a greater chance, it was my bet because I believe in the team behind ETherem and Vitalik was a genius man, he has the passion of what he is doing. If you compare the price there is a big disparity since the adoption of bitcoin is bigger and wider but as you said there will be a change in the future so it makes sense if I will hold some alts to prepare for that time.

Not disputing that there is a chance bitcoin gets replaced, but I very much doubt it will be ethereum. Just about all the problems people see with bitcoin, like governance, scaleability etcetera, ethereum has as well but with more complexity. I don't understand why people don't seem to realize that Ethereum has not actually solved anything yet (and no, a centralized dictator enforcing his will is not a better solution). Ethereum does not scale better than bitcoin, I don't understand why people try to push that idea, (just look at the size of the blockchain for a full node). And their choice to make the chain muteable was a horrific move and clearly shows the centralization problem in ethereum, why even bother with the hassle of a distributed chain then? Listening to a number of developers and their frustration with getting anything remotely serious done with it, I'm more and more getting the impression that ethereum will never be able to live up to the hype and has some serious limitations in the way it was designed that will not be resolved by any fork or update.

Last but not least a number of those devs complaining about ethereum seem to be hyping up for a new blockchain project that apparently does not suffer the same problems as ethereum. If what they tell me is even partially correct, ethereum will be first in line to be replaced within the next few years.

Ethereum doesn't solve the scaling issues but it does add a lot more features to crypto than bitcoin does. If as you say bitcoin may be replaced but not by ethereum then which coin are you suggesting that should be? Litecoin because they have segwit? A completely different coin? I believe most of the alternative coins would have the same scaling issues if it was adopted in mass.
87  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Price Will Go To 1800 - 1900 USD This Summer And Then Go Down on: May 16, 2017, 08:42:52 AM
If we look in Bitcoin price this year, then we can see that currently it is quite high, almost 1700 USD now - http://preev.com/, so it will go to 1800 - 1900 USD this summer and then go down later this year.

Whether it is high or low right now is really a relative concept, a few months ago a price of 1000 was considered high but now would be considered low. My point being there is no telling where the price will head and I think your analysis that it will go down later this year is really off because the interest for bitcoin has really surged lately. If the price rises with a surge in usage then it can't be called a bubble.
