I hope that bitcoin 20 years from now is worth at least U$250,000+
I would not say it's impossible to happen but if you really believe on that, you can start building your dream now, try to invest and hold for a longer period of time. That way you can prove to yourself that you really trust the future of bitcoin.
8003  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does experience matter in gambling? on: March 24, 2017, 07:07:33 AM
I couldn't agree more however there are first timers who eventually gets all the luck to what ever he choose of games of gambles. But then again as soon there are to familiar to the games they chose, they automatically thinks that they are well experienced and capable of losing but they are wrong before a gambler consider himself a well experience gambler he should show signs that will be impressive to other gamblers.

That's what we call the beginners luck. I do believe with that thing as beginners doesn't really have an idea how to win a gambling game, as long as they know how to bet and they want to try it out. They are winning unexpectedly but in the end, I would say that experience really matters in gambling in case of you are in worst case scenario's and losing streak.
We have won when we are just beginners in gambling and it really feels overwhelming because we are so happy at that moment, we will only realize in the long that emotional judgement is not good in gambling. Everyone has their winning moment but let's forget we do not only win in gambling, losing is also there most of the time, so one must learn from experience and if possible do analyze your bet carefully and do not get dictated by your feelings.
8004  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling. Is It Wrong? on: March 24, 2017, 06:45:50 AM
It is true, We couldn't compare gambling with other than trading and investment. Because in trading and investment these are permanent source of income, even these are risky but we could manege our lose in trading and investment. But in gambling, we couldn't manege it and gambling couldn't give us permanently money. Than as you said in gambling, it has a high lever risk than trading.

It is almost the same except for some parts. If people want to be rich from gambling then that is a wrong idea on why we should gamble. Sometimes people can win however Im sure alot of people lose so if you have other source of investment then just go for it, it is much better than using gambling as a source of making money
Most people think it is because we only based on our personal capacity, let us not forget that individual has different skills and if you skills will fit to achieve becoming rich in gambling then why not give a try. The thing is we think all games has a house edge that would kill our bankroll in the long run, but it's wrong there are skilled based games that gives greater opportunity to gamblers who do hard world and smart enough to win.
8005  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling problem on: March 23, 2017, 03:23:03 AM
You say you want to start gambling but what if you gamble and win big ? Will you want to go back in time and not gamble ? We know the risks and we must only gamble if we make the decision for ourselves that the sacrifice of money to chase big dreams is worth it. But we must remember if that gets in the way if our responsibility then it is a problem. For example of you gamble and not spend time with family or youbhambke away important money for feeding your family. Unless you don't hear it is ok and your choice.
The chances of winning big through gambling are very rare ,so a good advice for him would be to stop losing money and better invest that in some other way so that you could yield some profit. I have seen people winning jackpot when it comes to gambling but those are rare chances and if you are lucky enough you will win .
If one will not treat gambling as for fun, it's either he will become rich or goes bankrupt, that is the certain possible outcome for our actions.
Gambling problem will happen when you do not have the skills to make money and you still go for it, you will lose and since you are heated you will
chase your loses which would result to a bigger lose. Honestly, I have been through that in my life but good thing I have change and accepted my defeat.

I thought about something - with current Bitcoin scaling problems and hard  fork eventuality altcoins are gaining grounds.
Traders are buiing Ethereum to diversify their cryptocurrency portfolio, this would be nothing but good news for altcoin gambling service like vDice.
The harder bitcoin is plagued by bad news, BU vs Core war the more popular ETH will get.
For the gambling industry as whole it is, but for a player it has nothing to do with their venture in life, unless they are a trader as well.
Gamblers just gamble and does not care the value so much for their money as they are more focus in winning, at the end of the day if they win they will just cash it out and enjoy.

So what are the updates on the scam accusations versus 1Xbit? I see their site is still running. Do some of the gamblers here still use the site? It was safe enough when I was using it before all the scam accusations.

Last post before yours was 11 days ago, I think the site lost popularity after the campaign ended, the campaign required 1 post per week. No one is interested in this site, because it is scam.
The campaign was really a big help to spread popularity but the site has lots of scam accusations which is not good in a business where reputation matters a lot. After the campaign has stopped I have not seen also any accusations posted  on this thread anymore, what does it mean?

As I checked now on the trust system of 1xBit.com, it was tagged by shorena for Unresolved scam accusation, so until it is resolved we will not see people coming here more often.
8008  Economy / Economics / Re: How many Bitcoin do you have saved? on: March 22, 2017, 03:47:48 AM
Well i saved bitcoin in my wallet and i don't have to spend my bitcoin in many things because someday i need bitcoin and i invest in many legit site in internet i will do my job here in  bitcointalk to earn more and more bitcoins and i love doing my job and also i will thank to my bestfriend in social media i know now the bitcoin 
Thats good for you and do not put your bitcoin in cloud mining sites because i experience to invest and i got scam that is why much better to keep the bitcoin in your wallet and wait for the right time to sell it.
It would be better if you will manage your money that put it with others business, cloud mining is a good business for the owner but for the investors, I will not recommend it. I have seen a lot of complains about being scam and that gives them a bad reputation, it you will ask me, just put that in a gambling site's bankroll and you will receive a good amount in the longer run.
8009  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What would you do with your winnings? on: March 22, 2017, 03:29:04 AM
What I will do if I won in gambling is to invest in trading or buying physical bit[Suspicious link removed]ds like a funded coin. As a usual gambler, I will keep a small amount to use for another set of betting.  Grin

In case of big winning I also like to invest into promising project and keep very small part of money for gambling because I know this gambling is not to get rich in a day and we can lost all money there.
if you won a huge win such as thousands or even million dollar i would never back to gamble.
but when won a little amount only then it is always worth to keep trying and enjoying to gamble.
and save most of the winning amount of course , not to spend anywhere or on any project.
Yeah as said if a winning fulfill the needs to some extent or gives a better living atmosphere we can try to make a investment with the amount or can diversify for business needs. The same when the amount is small, it's good to try the best with continued saving of at least a small portion from the random winning.
I don't think of saving my winning because I know I will still lose the money the next time I gamble, since winning does not come most of the time I prefer to just enjoy it by spending and put a new bankroll for the next session. I'm not really a professional gambler so I do not consider gambling as a job or a business.

8011  Economy / Economics / Re: What will be our new world currency? on: March 21, 2017, 07:30:23 AM
Of course its dollar, its on top of it.
We cannot deny the fact that dollar is being use all over the globe and more popular than what we have here the bitcoin. To be the next world currency, I guess non yet Smiley the fiat need to prove the power of it like what dollar is providing to each country.
For now it's dollar really, there are the biggest currency AFAIK, crypto currencies cannot even compete with some other legal currencies and the the value is not the only basis on how strong a currency is because if we do, it will be bitcoin that is going to be the strongest considering it's value now.
What makes a currency stable and strong is based on the number of users and we know dollar has a lot of users not only in it's own country but with some countries as well.
8012  Other / Archival / Re: Which one is more risky? Skill-based gambling or trading? on: March 21, 2017, 06:28:00 AM
when there of manipulation in trading you still have funds but in gambling when there was manipulation your funds will be lost and nothing left so I think skill-based gambling more risky
Even it's called with "Skill" based games that isn't 100% relay with skill, about 50% is reserved for luck (Good Card and Turn or something like that). In gambling, if you were lose you'd lose all of your money but trading is not. However, we can't tell these are same because they are pretty different in terms of mechanism and market.
At least a major portion relies on your skills, believing you have the skills will let you get what you want. Skilled based gambling is created to give us a chance to win, and since there is no house edge, we will always have a good chance to win in the long run, that if you will develop your skills and capitalize on it.
8013  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [vDice.io]►Ethereum Blockchain Gambling►►**New & Awesome Version of Site on: March 21, 2017, 06:12:44 AM
Ethereum price is preventing me to try some more bets on Vdice. I'm on the wait and see balcony because I did that mistake once (with Bitcoin). I prefer to keep my eth while they keep marching.

If you are positive enough that you can win, I guess that would give you a good chance to double your profit. While the price is increasing, you can grow your volume of ETH while gambling, that if you are willing to take that bigger risk or just be contented with the guaranteed profit now.
8014  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sport betting exchanges on: March 20, 2017, 06:15:38 AM
Hi

I'm new here and I want to know if there is any sports betting exchange which accepts cryptocurrencies for deposit/withdrawals?

I prefer exchanges rather to bookmakers since one is betting against other users instead of the house
I can't get a good odds on that kind of betting, now I'm really focus in sports betting in different sites and if you would like to try it there are plenty of good sportsbook here. Wait a second, is this similar to OneHash here, https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=960158.0
8015  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Planned or impulsive gambling? on: March 20, 2017, 06:04:56 AM
Trust me nobody ever plans to gamble because when they are not under Impulse they know that the house edge will win against them in the long run and they also know that every time the gamble they will gamble everything away and they will not withdraw any amount even if they are up by  10 times.

Real Gamblers will have and each time to time to gamble and when they do the either control or later this is the difference between compulsive and non compulsive gambling
Why choose a game where there is a house edge, you can always select a skilled based game if you have a good plan, that way you will be able to implement it. Games with house edge is only good for playing for fun, you will be thrilled so much because the outcome is very fast and might lead you to making a wrong decision to bet what you can afford to lose. When you gamble, everything should be plan, otherwise you will lose easily.
8016  Economy / Economics / Re: Why the price of Bitcoin change more than traditional currencies? on: March 20, 2017, 02:19:21 AM
Some countries control the exchange rate of their national currencies against the dollar, most don’t because it is impossible to fight against the markets, in the case of bitcoin the swings in price happen because the lower market cap and because speculators are in fact looking for those big swings so those swings get amplified by the market.
may be in some countries it is possible. but i think when we speak about bitcoin, the uses of bitcoin are increasing from time to time and therefore it is now becoming more difficult to manipulate the price of bitcoin.
I thought the same but the recent decrease in price came mostly from FUD about the possible hard fork, which seems to be incorrect that  alone is the reason of the price decrease so while bitcoin has become more resistant to some type of manipulation it seems it will always be vulnerable to FUD like that.
Well if you believe in FUD then definitely you will be tempted to sell, the price has drop really hard and it seems like people are panicking so much that is why in a short period of time we have seen this price. I'm not selling actually, I don't care if it will continue to fall down, currently the price is over $1,000 which is good IMO and I hope we will a price increase again.
8017  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [vDice.io]►Ethereum Blockchain Gambling►►**New & Awesome Version of Site on: March 20, 2017, 02:03:35 AM
Saw thst mostt of you guys that played on this site is losing though. Can it be profitable to play on this site? Because it seems that the payout is 1.98x instead of 2x so I assume this is 1% house edge. But to play on 50% winning chance and keep on losing seems that it has a thing hre. Anyone care to explain for me about their fairness

I think that is normal, in other gambling site multiplier x2 have a win chance 45-49%. In vdice x2.4 have a win chance 40%.
House edge is 1.9%

Odds do not necessarily reflect exactly the win chance, If you can see there are who lose in x1.09

Yeah, i agree on that but in a long term people will just lose everything if they keep on gambling. No matter how much house edge there but if you keep to do it again and again, you will lose it for sure. And odds does not really represent your winning chance, so if there is still house edge people will always lose in the end

I am pretty sure that is gambling only for fun, can not be considered gambling with a regular job. It always seems like easy money, but the risk of loss of quite large.
In my country, one of the biggest betting company have our own rehab clinic for gambling addicts.  Grin

Isn't that a conflict of interest, why would they do that when their main business is gambling, I mean the more people who are attracted or addicted in gambling the more profit they get because gambling sites is operating as profit oriented business.  It's our responsibility to control ourselves in gambling as it's given that this kind of game is fun and nowadays we have new innovation that will give us more fun like vdice.
8018  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How can gambling help you with your life? on: March 18, 2017, 12:32:01 PM
Not only for me, gambling is not helpful to us in any sort of our life because to win a gambling we need pure luck. Even though I am winning in gambling, but I am getting only less amount of money when compared to my investment. So it will not helpful to any of my needs.
We know gambling is not helpful to most of us if we are looking for profit, the chances are low and therefore most of the time we will only lose. For me, I already understand my chances so in any way I can still consider gambling that helps my life, right now I do it for fun only and I'm getting the right entertainment I needed without spending the money that I cannot afford to lose.
8019  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Trading vs Gambling on: March 18, 2017, 12:19:00 PM
You guys can see the massive pump on most altcoins, their significant pumps tell everything, trading is the most profitable thing, much easier and less risky than gambling.

This is why we better choose to trade than to play gambling, we can see the assurance of returning the money that we use to bet on, right? We need to be wise now since bitcoin is getting more high value than usual.  but still nothing can be grantee in both trading and gambling.

Both are risky and in both you can make big profit or big lose. And its individual taste, and skills that determinate who like more trading or gambling, for me both are hard on its own way, and its not easy to make profit in either of them. I`m not even in amateur rang, newbie in gambling and trading, I`m clicking buying selling, betting on low or high numbers like some idiot and I`m spending satoshis just cause its interesting and if I`m lucky I can make some bucks.
Most of us are hoping for the win that is why we are gambling despite we do not have a decent amount of bankroll. Trading on the other hand is more like a serious venture, in the long run you can learn so it's good to keep searching for a working method. When you get matured by spending more time, you will understand that it's hard to win in gambling so it's better to treat it as fun only.
8020  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to Win using martingale system? on: March 17, 2017, 01:48:55 AM
What ever strategy you use in gambling even martingale system, it would not change the low chance of winnings. You will lose in consecutive bets but still the risk is very high to lose more using that system. So always be ready and accepts what will be result is, be sporty.
Martingale is good if you have a good amount of bankroll, however never thing you are exploiting the gambling sites with this system as you winning experience could only be temporary. No system will work in  game where house edge is present, never try to dig deeper as in now way you will succeed.
Maybe just save your money and put it in a legitimate investment if you want to earn.
