Hodling is type of trading as well. It depends on how the trader plans on making profits. They can either buy a lot and then wait for that moment to sell then all and drop the market while it was on the rise. Or they can buy sell every now and then trying to cash in and cash out every dump and pump respectively.

Altcoins depends on bitcoin because they are purchased with three sources (mainly) - BTC, ETH and fiat. Of which most of the traders prefer bitcoin to buy altcoins. So if bitcoin drops, altcoins bought per bitcoin will decrease too and thus price of altcoins will rise at first and then drop.

The casino house will always win no matter what strategy you put into play. The game is EV- in dice and slots roulette etc. Thus in the long term profit for the gambler is negative and for the house if positive. Most gamblers who are regularly playing know this and thus they dont play for too long, lest the bad streaks come into play.

Again many gamblers cant stop their temptation - which is why the casino business is lucrative and profitable not to mention illegal in some places.

Because those of you who are using multiple accounts to abuse bounty campaigns will be marked red. Also please stop referring to bounties as "jobs" and something to "strive for". Its utter nonsense and makes your look like a scumbag in the forum. Those who come to the forum for bounties and all are the worst level of scum in the world.

Also theymos would not be looking into the "loveletter" you sent to them. They are too busy with other work.

Thanks for bringing your accounts into my notice. I will also send you some postcards with red permanent markers.

What SFR10 said is correct. The new#new lands the link in those posts that have come after the last time you (from your profile) visited that thread and checked the replies. Once the replies have been "seen" by you the new "tag" will be removed and thus they will be removed from the "unread" section of your profile under those threads which you posted in.

This does not mean that it will land up in the same place where you left off for everyone. Its only for your profile. If you have any other questions feel free to ask.

Theymos did not make any statement that he needs a new moderator. Joel_Jansten is simply pointing out the fact that the Indian Local board need a mod, along with the recent issues at Coinsecure and Benson being busy - not being able to moderate the section.

This. He claims to have brought up this context before as well. Dont get me wrong but it seems to me now that Joel is actually trying to promote their own name for the new mod taking advantage of the situation of the Coinsecure and Benson being AWOL (??)Not that I would have any objection to it. (I dont know about others though)

But nice of you to put it in the Disclaimer.

Question is, would they be willing to reveal their nationality at all? Privacy issues?

I would call you a winner. You did not lose but won that game that most people cannot win - The Mind Game. Gambling and any other addiction which has psychological dependence is based on the mind not being able to abstain from that addictive substance. If you can calm your mind and stop yourself from gambling then you have conquered your mind and have taken control of the mind game.

The feeling will be there. But if you involve yourself in other work then definitely in future you will be able to stop yourself from gambling ever again.

I would advice you to improve you English first before posting in the forum. A post like this is utter garbage and made only to spam their signature.


How do you know that without any proof? Any sane person here who is not 60+ would never try to get rid of their job - because its their daily earning. Hell nobody would want their insured earning of bread and butter everyday to be taken - would they?

Most traders (if you ask me) come in the 20-50y age group. I am saying this from my own experience but there will be exceptions.

Nobody is afraid to hold something. What they are afraid of if what if they lose their money.


Mainly the medis FUD is bought easily by the common people. If they would think scientifically they would understand the essence of bitcoin and its usage. Now most people are too lazy (like marmeladko said) and rest are brainwashed by reading the shillposting on reddit channels and twitter account pages. Believe me, those are breeding grounds for shills who dont care about investors money but for pumping every other news.

Bitcoin may be anonymous (pseudo-anonymous to be precise) but the gambling site is often not so. There are many bitcoin casinos who are owned by people and these people are no longer anonymous. They are running a profitable business and they have to protect their interests. Thus it is better for them to get a licence and get "taxed" or so by their government following local rules.

The last thing that a successful bitcoin casino owner would want is the authorities knocking on their door for money laundering.

See people who come to this forum to do only bounties and airdrops are always looked down upon as the bottomfeeder shitposter squad. Now if they eually contribute to discussions and they also do some bounties, it shows that they are not some beggar sort of shitposter and in the long run will able to earn some merits if they make quality posts.

Its not a question of being fair or not. In my opinion it is unfair and this is a good thing for the forum. People here hardly interact in their posts even if someone replies them in the Bitcoin Discussion and Economics, Altcoin Discussion sections. Let alone the ANN sections which is full of shitposters. The merit sources will have a sort of "favoritism" and this is good for the forum.

Naah dude, I cant be a moderator for the following reasons:
1. I have a life outside this forum. Not possible for me to come everyday to this forum to mod a section.
2. I am extremely hammer-happy. I would get demodded in within a week even if I was made one. You can bet on that for sure.

But definitely not anybody like @allahabadi. Sorry to break it, if I did.

@joel_jantsen, I would say let the dust settle a bit and let theymos decide how to proceed based on the hack investigations.

Gambling is prohibited in many countries. Again it is not prohibited but regulated in some countries. Overall this is the setting of the physical casinos. Bitcoin casinos (nowadays) are getting registered properly. But some are there which prefer the anonymity that crypto provides and not get registerd. Being registered only brings in more trouble. Taxation, legal problems with customers and all.


No. A lot more than that.

It is not a question of making anobody "unhappy" or "hurt" and in true sense everybody knows that emotions have got zero space in the internet. If someone trolls you either get with it or move on. I am happy seeing the merit system make a mess of the organised shitposting spree that bottomfeeding scum had going on in this forum for several years.

Again I am no happy seeing the threads coming up in "Meta" being a cry baby about merit.

While I do appreciate TMAN's effort in trying to help out potentially good posters get merits which I why I watch this thread, I hardly give my sMerits to any of them simply because they dont deserve a single sMerit.

You must be joking. The number of shitposts in this forum is so huge that merit sources would actually have to be ninjas to actually be able to merit all worthy posts and not overlook any.

I have no idea what you mean by "scale-able" in this context though.


Merit sources are increasing. There is a method to apply as merit source as well. Also theymos has advised local board posters to apply as merit sources so that people who post in the local threads will also have a chance to earn some merits.

True the distribution of merit sources patrolling is having a lower "exposure" - but only time can tell how it will go.

Its not encryption market. Its crypto market. Arggh stop visiting the site using a translator - it makes the posts utter non-sense to read - equivalent to shitposting.

Yes crypto market did fall a lot and if you have lost money through it then nobody can help you. It was your decision to buy crypto and thus you have to deal with market fluctuation profit/loss. If you believe in those coins which went down - hold them till they rise again and then sell when they appear green from your buying point.

Overall patience is what is lacking in the younger traders.

What the hell do you mean by "Bitcoin is a lot of people" ? Bitcoin is a currency for heavens sake and not a group of people. I believe you are using a translator to view and post in the forum which is why you posts seems to be non-sense jumbled up. Better for you to learn English first before posting.

You are correct that in future the adoption of bitcoin will increase and this will actually make bitcoin scarce even if the supply is being done by miners. This does not mean that bitcoin is "growing" - it shows the economic liquidity of bitcoin and that new traders are coming into the market.

But parents wont want their innocent kids to kill each other while playing would they? They need to impose some restrictions or at least some sort of marking system in order to mark those who are potential scammers and since bitcointalk is the ground for signature spammers; shitposters and account farmers as well.

Those who buy/sell account do it for either of these purposes:
1. Scamming by hiding under the "Elder Rank" that the bought has. Gullible newbies often fall prey of them.
2. Shitposting to get paid from campaigns - the "who does not like free money" is the root cause of this forum garbage.

Even if you try to teach the gamblers some morals of life - they will never learn or get over their habits. They understand that its bad for their time money health and their family. But still they will gamble until they are stretched thin and even in debt. They realize that the house will win in the long run and they are wasting their resources trying to run after the jackpot but it of no use telling them.

Possibly they have become resistant to people giving them advice on how to be a "good" gambler.

Demand is when new people enter into the crypto market. They are willing to buy bitcoins and altcoins and thus putting in their fiat money into the crypto economy. Supply is constantly from the miners and is deflationary in nature. Thus the future prices are bound to increase as long as there is a steady demand of coins.

Again new people entering the market will be less experienced and thus it is the opportunity for the old traders to cash out some money while they buy.

Classic example of the third world nigerian shitposters in the forum trying to make a few bucks for "weed money". Get a life and get out of this forum. Nobody is going to spoonfeed you like a babydoll. All the answers are in the forum threads and stickies.
