I agree into this in some other point, but it doesn't totally fall on that criteria were it is fully considered as a gambling, like sort of it doesn't have a sort of killing time, a leisure, a moment of your life being drag into something that you enjoy. On the other hand in holding All you have to do is wait or somehow trade and it requires some skills. Unlike in a gambling game, it only wants you to choose between numbers and the moment you hit the button win or lose, you can see it instantly.

It is tiring to look for a penny this days, even in the bounty campaigns you could hardly tell whether you will get paid or not. How could reald airdrops which only gives little amount of coins would satisfy your needs. Even for example you have got those coins, maybe the amount of gas sending it to an exchange with where it is registered could be worth than the airdropped coin itself.

Canada being a crypto friendly country has got more number of bitcoin ATMs. Everywhere new ways bitcoin is taken away from the common people who are new to the cryptocurrency usage. Here in Winnipeg, a city of Canada simple trick was played with posters being placed along the side of the BITCOIN ATM. The poster has the description mentioned bitcoin ATM under software update. For purchase and deposit don't use your own wallets, use the one that is mentioned with a QR code on the poster.
Police mentioned those posters weren't put by the Bitcoin ATM owners, This is a simple trick and people are buying and depositing to someone else which is irreversible. Also, suggested not to use ATMs if you aren't familiar with its usage. Importantly never buy and send to unknown wallets, send only to known wallets which is controlled by you or a person next to you.
Even though there is warnings some will still continue to loss their funds, it isn't the mistake of the police and here the users needs to be more cautious. I expect such a level of support from police from every country which isn't a fair expectation, but this will happen someday.

Or they(the bitcoin atm owners) could put some surveillance camera around their machines to stop inappropriate actions taken by those shitty scammers out of simple minded folks. Some point the police would help the buyers to look out for them, maybe not in a far distant reality they would even guide the people who buy at ATM machines, sad to say this scammers are way downtown posting that fraud posters to scam people. |

Where does the volatility end? Will it stop at some point were Bitcoin i already the currency of world? If maybe that happens then how would the future people take responsible actions with it's volatility right? Well but maybe most of the people that bought Bitcoin i because it is volatile. Again the idea of blockchain is great but how about Bitcoin?

I have been compromised once in a decentralized one, I nearly lose my 1000 dollars, but luckily I got it back. I can't remember the exact date but it was when someone from etherdelta, they've got issues and the guy pays back compromising accounts of the consumers. On the other hand, in a centralized one, it is almost half a year and some of my alts are in there. In different centralized exchange I never had any issues between them, this is base on my experience, only the fees are bugging me because it's high but the security is good for me.

So I've been wondering a lot time now why some people choose to play lottery which is made in such a way that it's statistically impossible to win and not any other game that gives about 49% chance to win? In online crypto-gambling there are a lot of such services. Personally I'd advice against gambling overall (ye I know I wear a gambling signature at the moment!) but if someone insists on playing something without thinking or using skills, then why not buy a random stock? That'd give them 50% chance to win and with some research they could increase this chance. I found this nice video a day ago, it tells the truth about lotteries in a funny way: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9PSWTDhHGt4A very good point is made at 2:55 about the probabilities Also at 4:07 they lottery in comparison with gambling and stock market in a funny way... "we take away all the skill of blackjack or poker just to make sure we have the best chance of getting your money"!  Low stake and high rewards, also the lottery here help the needy. At some other point you feel like you are helping someone while at the same time betting, hoping to win the pot. They do really give help, especially the people who needs medical assistance, financially speaking they give higher than you expect. Another thing is that it is easy for the older folks, they even don't have gadgets for online gambling and the likes. |

why do people complain about the market situation? complain about the drop in altcoin prices? complain because bitcoin dominates the market today rather than altcoin?
yes, isn't every action you decide is the result of your research? if every decision you have made, you also have to believe in it.
yes ... but if you are not sure about that, it doesn't matter either, because it is your right, but remember to never regret it when you make other decisions that are more risky than the previous choice.
until now I still hold the altcoin bag and also bitcoin, I do not panic, do not complain, remain patient, and of course always confident of every action I have decided.
Thank goodness I now stopped buying alts, somehow it gave me some disease on my heart. So I chose the better option, a single heartedly decision to buy just Bitcoin. It doesn't mean I don't have alts at all, but it was the time when I am fond of them, I only did not just have the courage to sell them and now they are in different kinds of exchange, I don't even know if they still exist in there, because I rarely open my accounts, I never complained about my decisions and I accepted them even they made a huge turn in my life. |

Do you search for and look thru new cryptocurrencies of the day every day? The prices of newly launched currencies should have no choices other than rise to multiple times high. These currencies may not have long-term pontential. Invest 10k in such a currencies, dump them and make big money in short term.
There were altcoins which skyrocketted to 100 times higher in just days.
Very old altcoins may take very long time to achieve multiples. Even like eth, ltc. They wont go to 100 more expensive anymore. But very new cuŕrencies can.
I think top ten old altcoins have achieve saturation.
Is this your investment strategy?
If you have the eye for a coin that can get high as 100 times then it is okay, but if the project fails which somehow is the case with most of the new currencies out there and you have spend lot of money with it, then old alts are way better than that. I would probably bet it in some casino online than to invest in no assurances new companies that are popping recently. That way I would know where my money would go, instant lose or win, rather than tracking someone that don't to be trace and ran with your money, enough of that. |

I don't think that the Philippines will heed to China's call to ban all online gambling because one of the main source of income came from the casinos may it be online or offline and it's very critical to have that income as the Duterte administration needed that badly to fund the build build build program.
For now, maybe they can ban all Chinese from gambling on the Philippine soil, they can come here only as tourist.
The government's leader of the Philippines as of now is a smart and down to earth man, he would definitely stop illegal activities including gambling or not, online or not if it is against the laws. As far as the Chinese folks abide the laws of the country, they won't have any problems with the kind of business they will establish. As of now, I only heard one local gambling called the lottery, because it's corrupted and are somewhat against the laws, even if it a big company he doesn't care, any nationals can have their way of building casinos as long as it follows the rules, with or without China's heed. |

Buti na ganito para maiwasan naman ng mga baguhan ang ganitong uri ng pagnanakaw.

Sorry pal,many developers coming into crypto space this days have only one aim,which is MONEY so to achieve this they will try to give investors what they want so as to get money from them,there is norhing to stop this for now. Imagine a project teams that refuse to list on exchange yet telling their investors to chill till altcoin season returns so that everyone will be happy? what is that actually?they only care about what will come into their pockets,its really sad,dont just give up yet,there will be some serious developers that cares and ready to deliver
All of us do, maybe some but not all the time. We need money that's why most of us here is here. Once I saw a here that alts or including the prime coin is a way to steal money, and somehow it has dee meaning and somewhat true. There are only few folks who were here that did not just came here for money, but to fight the system we have and all of it that makes us suffer. One person or group of person is the one who created all of this, he did not just made this for money but for a change. |

Nothing new. same old John MacAfee, I am only interest in the time he will be eating his own sausage on national TV. The thing is you will be surely more than a fool if you panic and sell you bitcoin now, it would be sale for others and you will be the ones who will cry later on.

Is there a demand out there for the coins/tokens that companies and startup are churning out every day?
The market for initial coin offerings (ICOs) looks like its basically dead, is it likely going to resurrect again? What we see is that market players are spending much of their time focused on finding new ways to deploy new supply of tokens, but not focusing much on long term drivers of demand. However, there are natural limits to the market's ability to absorb an endless supply of tokens, there is a limit to how quickly we can push supply into an increasingly saturated market.
Do you think the ICO is really dead?
If not, where is the market headed?
Everybody learned their lessons,including new comers, they will be more intelligent and prepared if they manage to pick new alts for their investments, then of course new developers will be pretty much tougher also, this time it will not just be baseless dreams that they are trying to make, it is a reality where every body can win. If there are still ICOs out there then it should be more precise, securities for their investors are assured and a goal is firmly set. So it would be much better the past ICO were the most of them never even had the chance to prove their existence Most likely new investors will not be dumb as what we saw when ICO was so hot that new coins are made every minute at that time. |

Each and everyone of us has ideas and some of them are unique, but it lacks support such as technical skills and financial assistance. Some of the dreamers out there made some bright ideas on how people would make living much easier than it was, including new coins and its functions in the society, but most of them failed and then just run with the investors money. It's hard to push through which coins of the past are failures and never give what was intended. Unless you have been backed up by real investors who have many connections or have their own companies that want to support you ideas, in that way they could make the project more successful with the powers they already had.

I don't know if many of you notice this, but a lot of people who simply don't understand trading or derivatives seem hell bent on taking away our right to trade, just like the current proposed UK ban. They are cheering on the regulators to ban everything. They think any leverage is gambling. How do you feel realizing these people want to take your livelihood away?
The ones who requested to ban everything have a huge amount of grudge within theirselves towards us, maybe their businesses are going down due to traders and that's their way of fixing things. Maybe they are bunch of old dudes who do not know anything about modern trading with crypto currencies, couldn't they just learn how it goes and join us instead of trying to destroy the new way of us making legit money? |

Its not a must to promote bounty project everytime
Many projects are just time wasters dont expect that you will keep seeing good bounty projects every month.
Good bounty projects might take months to show up in crypto space so of you cant find any good one safe your reputation till you find reliable bounty project that wont tarnish the image of your account,remember that promoting scam bounty project is dangerous and can get you a red trust on your btt account.
So you are saying we should just sit and relax and do nothing? How would you know what a good project is anyway? Because I want to join campaigns that only my social media accounts are needed. With the current situation I have, I need to earn as much as I could. |

Whenever bitcoin transactions anonymity is discussed, there are two groups of people. The first group think of privacy of users and the second group think of those bitcoins have been stolen or have been used for illegal transactions.
We cannot have both anonymity and possibility of returning stolen bitcoin to their real owners.
Which one do you choose if you have to choose only of them?
If you choose the second option, please answer the question below.
Now, what's the difference between bitcoin and fiat?
You know what, when I was new here and no knowledge about countering any forms of hijacking me, I have no one, I did not even get help when my 1K USD forms of crypto was stolen, I did not beg for it to return. All I Did was sob for a little while and get back on my feet even though it hurts a bit. Now I have learned my lessons, even if the same thing happens, I will still do the same thing and move on, but that's if they manage to hack my account again. Anonymity is my weapon, a countermeasure for any hackers out there, better be unknown and that's what keeps me safe here until now. |

Hey! I want to buy some crypto with fiat and I want to know if it's a good idea. For example, to exchange crypto to crypto is just 0.25% fees on changelly. On the contrary, it's 7% to exchange it from fiat. It's a huge difference! What do you think about it?
I think that is only possible when you have already bought other crypto that is available for a trade to other cryptos as well, and yes you will be using the fiat system in order for you to buy the first crypto you want to use. I think you should probably just directly buy it with fiat, that way you don't have a hard time computing some fees, well that's if you have a hard time like me. |

If a New World Order takes effect soon, do you think that all of the world's governments will make use of crypto and Blockchain technology to their fullest potential? What exactly do you mean by "New World Order?" A one-world government? Imagine if one world digital currency existed, where every single country makes use of it worldwide. Central Banks will act as nodes and miners of that digital currency, which is backed by the Blockchain. The single, unified Blockchain will prove to become highly scalable for the world, especially since it'll be extremely centralized. Why bother with mining in such a centralized system? There's no need. The consensus is determined by trusted authorities. And sure, this sounds like a dream come true for governments until you realize all governments are competing against one another. They won't agree to give up their sovereign currencies. I think the world would sooner return to gold-backed money than a one-world currency. By making use of Blockchain technology for everything, global control will be enforced as it's much easier to track every single transaction made worldwide. I do think governments are pursuing this on a national level. It's perfect for surveillance. I just don't buy into the whole one-world conspiracy theory. Well since we are all living on the same world we have to do what they wanted us to do, regulations and laws, if you are planning a revolt then you would be named as a terrorist and that's a bad thing to happen. As of now OP's words are still distant. We still have balance in the earth, Chinese and the Russians are there, add North Korea, if somehow those world powers are defeated then we can say somehow that the New-World-Order is possible were a single group of people with the same laws and beliefs will control us through blockchain. The order is this: Destruction then Construction,Go to war and build again, the same people who are in control exist and their so called rules will be implemented with upgraded countermeasures. |

It's fair for me I guess, well I don't know for the guys who withdraws with huge amounts, I think some will have slight discussions on why is it that so. For the meantime it is the best we can got and I hardly see people complaining about it, and of course in my case the site that I am using gives me what I need so it's no problem at all. |
