8461  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: What Happens To The Altcoins If Bitcoin Drops Strong? on: July 06, 2020, 06:35:45 AM
altcoin price still have correlation with bitcoin price, what will happen to bitcoin it will happen to altcoin. bitcoin as king in cryptocurrency market, and investors recognized it as market mover. in history we see many times altcoin following bitcoin price. only less altcoin that didnt follow it due they have several good news that released.
It is right. Wherever bitcoin price moves, the altcoin will follow behind. And if bitcoin drops strong, the altcoin will follow, but not all altcoin will drop too far because some altcoin will try to survive, and the other altcoin can increase simultaneously. But it is difficult to know which altcoin can survive or grow because there is no sign of knowing that. We could only guess for the coin without know the truth.

No success that can be build overnight but as long as you believe you'll be successful in crypto, regardless of what you are doing or what you will do, you need to trust it and stay here even if it will take a long period of time.
We need always to remember that if we still believe that we can get there and reach our goals, we will see it happen in the future. No matter if that is hard, as long as we don't stop what we believe, we will have success. Earning more and more satoshi will be necessary because we don't know when the bitcoin price can increase, so if we can try to earn more satoshi, we will have many satoshis, and if the price increases, we can sell it to make much money.
8463  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Opinions about Bitcoin Diamond (BCD). on: July 06, 2020, 05:14:34 AM
I don't know if BCD can return to a higher price or not, but I think with the price now, I try to gamble with some amount Grin

I realize that BCD has an unknown chance to increase, so I can accept if that coin will not move to any high price. Using some money to buy a small amount of BCD will not be a problem for me, so let's wait what will happen before and after the hard fork. I hope the price can increase higher, and if the price can touch $10-$20, that will be a surprise for me Grin
8464  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can you hide your identity with bitcoin? (100%) on: July 06, 2020, 04:47:55 AM
We're talking about VPNs and blablabla. What if you make a transaction, using cafeteria's free Wi-Fi? I think you would be covered...
You can use VPN after you connect to the free WiFi, so at least, you can hide your identity, and the cafeteria's WiFi doesn't know which one of their customer who use their free WiFi. But I think we can not hide the number of bitcoin that we send or receive because the transaction will appear to the blockchain transaction. The other people will only know the amount without knowing who is the sender and the recipient.
8465  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Betting Odds comparison on: July 06, 2020, 04:19:17 AM
I still think we shouldn't follow nor tolerate the use of such "chance and odds calculator" as there might be some users whom would rather follow those odds than to make them use their logic and critical thinking in putting a bet on a certain team in a game.

I'm agree with this as I also aren't fond of using such calculators. Based on my experiences, I've seen a lot of user's that lost upon basing of their bets and following those kind of predictions. Meanwhile, I've also lost some as I tried doing the same. Therefore, my stand is with you yet we cannot blame other users that keep their basis on such betting odd platforms

why you insist follow others when you already saw that they are loosing ? so obviously you will loose too and it did happen  . you can blame them because those users make you lost and you can also blame yourself for trying it  .

i wont be happy loosing following others , thats why i never use this kind of tools but im only playing own my own  .  if i loose id be more contented but most of the times i never loose because i know what im doing   .
Maybe he thinks that by following them and his luck can come, and he will have the chance to win. But as you say, we can get another loss by following them, so it is better to modify the predictions or strategy or else so the chance to win will be there.

But still, no matter how good we modify the strategy and another thing, if we don't have luck, we will not win and will lose the money. Maybe we need to break a while before we can start a new round.
8466  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Alert] Scam attempt in the name of gambling house and moderator on: July 06, 2020, 03:06:29 AM
They can always find gullible users by sending those attractive offers and rewards.
Some will try for themselves for the hope that they will get good returns.
But unfortunately, it is a trap and they will get nothing in return.
Unsolicited emails and messages should automatically be put into trash.
The reason is because day by day users who are being desperate of getting instant money is increasing. They can be an easy target for scammers because scammers know that they are after an easy money. They just have to create a new way of attractive strategy then they can have now new victims. Even those who are being warned with this kind of scam can easily become a victim if they will be blinded by an easy money trick.
So that can help the scammers to find the next target who will give them the easy money. With some modification of the old way, they can attract desperate people to provide an offer to them, and they will make sure that the target will follow what they say. But if we can protect ourselves by searching for other information, we will not get in their trap, but we can avoid them to trick us.
8467  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is the best welcome offer for you? on: July 06, 2020, 02:30:58 AM
This not new for a newly open casinos, most likely these casinos are up for the competition among the other existing casino so they are featuring welcome bonuses and promotions that sometimes lead to their losses. This promotion are often being taken advantage by some people, especially the referral program with unlimited down lines they are literally creating money out of making verified accounts. I remember back then in telegram, someone approached me to made an account and verified it with 50/50 share on earnings.
But if the new casino offers a welcome bonus and many promotions that can make them to losses, that will not be good for their business because they need to exist for a long time. The online gambling business is not a short term business, but it is a long term business that wants to invite more and more gamblers. They need to think about how much money that they will use as the promotion, and if that bonus is to give free money to their customer, it's better they know how much the amount.
No casino will be ready to give unlimited amount just for the promotion, they will be looking to make most effective advertisement plans in the cheapest price because new startup cannot afford huge capital for promotions alone.
They can limit the amount of promotion if they don't have much money and allocate the money for each part. I am sure the casino will use the effective method as the promotion because if that casino is new, they need to think about how they can survive. Besides having a welcome bonus to people who come to their site, they also make a promotion to spreads on many websites, including on social media, which will attract more people to come.
8468  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How can online gambling help to kickstart the global economy? on: July 06, 2020, 01:48:16 AM
What other positive things can you think of that online casinos can add to the global economy?

Aside from taxes, gambling, may it be online or land base provides jobs to people.  Furthermore, gambling industry is active in funding charities.  Aside from that, I do not see any more positive things that it can add to the global economy.  Entertainment is already given so it is not worth mentioning.

The important thing is the casino can give employees jobs again after the pandemic, so people can back to work to their jobs. People will have an income as the employee, and they can buy their daily needs. If people can have money and buy their needs, the economy in that city or country will start, and soon, the situations will become stable as before. However, they need to follow the government's rule because we are still in the pandemic.
8469  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: should i invest to this project ? on: July 04, 2020, 07:21:22 AM
I can not suggest you invest in that project or not because it is hard to predict if the new project will succeed in the future or not because that will depend on how good the team will work for their project. I suggest you invest in bitcoin or other popular coins, and I think you can invest in low price coins if you don't have much money. You can search for more info about the project you want to invest but remember that you need to know much money you will use to invest.
8470  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Lesson plans about Bitcoin achieved on: July 04, 2020, 06:45:40 AM
So, I made a post about me teaching college students about Bitcoin and it's usage. I asked for  few things that would make up my lesson plans here.https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5259038.msg54708539#msg54708539 The positive replies I got was enough for me. So, I came up with these;

1. General introduction to Bitcoin
2. What it is used for
3. Introduction to a forum dedicated for discussion of Bitcoins named Bitcointalk Forum
4. Mining
5. Digital skills
6. Last week would be used for quizzes and setting up Bitcoin accounts and prizes would be won for serious students among them.


Your criticism is a welcome one too. Embarrassed


Don't forget to teach them the risks involve in going into BTC trading, mining and other things related. And as well bring them to the understanding of how this risks and the fear of not achieving anything after dedicated work can be resolved.
How to prevent the risk will be necessary to be one lesson because not all people know how to do that. Many of us are getting stuck in the higher price without we can sell the bitcoin because the price is down too deep. If they want to try to trade, you need to besides them, and you can tell what step by step to starting trading is. As a beginner, they need to teach by you because they don't have much knowledge about crypto, trading, and investment, so you need to explain the details to them.
8471  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Poker games that are providing free plays to earn real money on: July 04, 2020, 06:18:50 AM

Speed of what? The experience will be the difference between the experienced players and inexperienced players. Of course, the experienced players can make a fast decision or create a better strategy than amateur players. The experienced player will benefit when they play against the other player who doesn't have enough experience. But poker games will need the patience to manage the best card to win.

Apologies, my view of speed may have been too narrow. I was thinking of speed as to getting the fastest decision in a small amount of time, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's the "best" decision right? However, as you said, the experience can also be seen as speed, or rather how quickly one can create a decision best fit for a set scenario. What I meant by experience was closer to knowing how to bluff, push, and the like. Knowing when to retreat or to push kind of idea. These strategies may need speed for you to come up with them, but pulling off a proper bluff needs experience right? You can see a stark difference when a beginner tries to bluff and when a professional tries to bluff.
No problem. Ah, I got your point about the speed. Maybe we can call the speed as the time to decide. Yes, the time to make the fastest decision will need more experience, so if someone has much experience in that games, he can be able to decide in a short time, fastest than the other people who don't have more experience. So there is a big difference between the pro and the beginner in making a decision, and I think that can work in another field, not just in the gambling games only.
8472  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: My friend passed away and he have Bitcoin in his wallet on: July 04, 2020, 05:45:14 AM
Hi
It's a bit strange topic and situation so a friend of mine passed away in a traffic accident and I'm sure he have big amount of saved bitcoins in his wallet or wallets.
His parents a bit old school and they know nothing about technology or Bitcoin
So I want to tell his parents about it as probably his private keys is saved in his personal PC or email or his phone or some paper
And no I cannot go to meet them as I'm in another country now but I have his father's phone and another friend of mine living close to them

So do you guys think it's a good idea to tell his parents about it ? To search of they find some twelve words it's a key to some hisen coins ? Or what do you guys think?
That is a good idea to tell his parents that your friend has bitcoin in his wallet. You or your friend can teach his father to access it, or if they need money, you can help them sell the bitcoin. If you can find local sellers, that will be good because you can cut off some of the ways without using the exchange. It is better to make a video call with his father, your friend who lives close to them, and the seller who can you trust.

You can try to open your friend's wallet, and if the wallet needs twelve words, you can ask your friend to search on his computer, mobile phone, or another place.
8473  Other / Off-topic / Re: What do you think covid-19 end in this year? on: July 04, 2020, 02:52:28 AM
In my country covid positive is getting higher and higher. I don't think personally that this pandemic will be ending sooner or earlier than December 2020. But I do hope that somehow researchers and scientists can formulate the vaccine sooner.
I think the government of your country is unable to take adequate measures so due to which a lot has spread in your country. Even preventive action is very important at this moment because we have not yet been able to invent a vaccine. So my guess is that it will not be possible to defeat this virus very soon and it may take a long time.
Maybe in his country, the government is trying to prevent the virus by using social distance, wear a mask, and suggest people try to live healthily. I am sure that the pandemic will end, especially if the scientists can formulate the right vaccine to cure the people. But before the vaccine can release to the public, we need to take care of our health, so we don't have to infect the virus.
8474  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Trading competition, a plus or minus on: July 04, 2020, 02:17:36 AM
For developers who are working with this strategy, bringing investors and traders by means of such competitions might work
for the short run, though its also possible that it can harmed the project itself
once the dumped started, and manipulations can't be avoided due to traders who
knows how to work with people sentiments.
As long as the developers can follow and stay alert of the trading competitions and make sure that the price is not getting dump, I think they can run the competitions without a problem. It is a job for the exchange to manage the competitions, and they don't allow the manipulations from many whales. However, that does not guarantee that the manipulations will not happen in the competitions.
8475  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Poker games that are providing free plays to earn real money on: July 04, 2020, 01:47:19 AM
All players want to play with a weak player so they can win the games easily. But unfortunately, that thing can not always happen because the sport staff will shuffle the player by random so each player will have to compete with each other to be the winner. Their fear will become bigger once they don't have a good card, and their opponent can bluff them easily. The experienced player will know how to make a strategy with fast than their opponent, so they can realize how big their chance to win, and if it's necessary, they will try to bluff them.
It's not about speed imo, but rather with how experienced players can create a winning strategy even with a bad hand. Heck, even making decisions quickly can be detrimental at times since mistakes are bound to happen when you try to think quickly, quick enough that you don't understand what's happening and you're just grasping straws by the end.
Speed of what? The experience will be the difference between the experienced players and inexperienced players. Of course, the experienced players can make a fast decision or create a better strategy than amateur players. The experienced player will benefit when they play against the other player who doesn't have enough experience. But poker games will need the patience to manage the best card to win.

Give cryptocurrency time to grow and reach more people to use it, and you will the cryptocurrency will be accepted in the other industry. Cryptocurrency itself still needs more time to expand to the other industry, but it will have a chance to be popular in the future. So while the cryptocurrency needs time, we can prepare ourselves to have more and more amount of any coin which can grow with the crypto world. And bitcoin will be on that way to grow and reach more people.

Time and patience is what the industry generally lacks I would say, and the other problem is people refuse to use it. They just want to invest, sell, hold, list. Very few people actually think, hmm,,, let me also use it. And promote the usage, not the trading. And then they ask why it has no demand:)
We can wish that many people can open their minds about the new technology that already exists to them, so they don't refuse it but accept it. No matter what, the technology will always grow, and if that person doesn't want to know or refuse, they will not have a chance to have followed the world. It's also about awareness of every people who want to know about the newest technology.
8477  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: If Bitcoin hits $ 100,000 after halving, Litecoin may be worth $ 3,000 based on on: July 04, 2020, 01:16:45 AM
I am sure if that happens, many of us will be millionaires since I guess they already bought litecoin at a low price, and they will make sure they can wait for that time to comes. When litecoin have time to increase, that will be good news for us, especially for litecoin holder because they want to make a big profit from litecoin as before. We are waiting for the next bull run that will comes in the crypto market.
A lot of crypto enthusiast will be a millionaire but i dont see that happen now even when the bullish market start to be incase such thing happen in flthe future i believe the OP calculation about Litecoin will be incorrect because LTC havent  implemented lightning Network Daemon v0.10.1, released Core 0.18.1 and power up with Atari when LTC make the price listed.
Yeah, the bullish market will not happen now, but we hope it will happen this year. The first thing that litecoin needs to do is lift the price to break $75-$100 because that is hard to do, especially if bitcoin price does not increase so high. Maybe soon, the litecoin developer will announce something so that it can bring a positive sentiment. If the market sentiment is high, that can make the price slowly increase and break the high price.
8478  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Which currency will popular in next bullrun? on: July 04, 2020, 12:33:37 AM
I also believed Ethereum will continue to be one of the popular crypto base on the community support level and the confidence they already gained among crypto enthusiast but Ethereum won't is the most popular or the major hit when the next bull run market happen and the previous bull run marker is enough to judge what i just said.
Before ethereum get popular, bitcoin will be the first crypto, which will be popular in the next bull run. Ethereum will have the chance to increase and popular after bitcoin make a bull run, and increase the price to the next highest price. Bitcoin now is trying to get more support and prepare for the time for the next bull run, and if that can happen this year, the bitcoin price will be at the highest price. But before bitcoin price can surge to the highest price, maybe the altcoin will have their time to reach the high price and stay for a while to wait for bitcoin to reach another higher price.
Every individual in the cryptosphere is aware that bitcoin will lead the bull run market while others (altcoins) follow but I think OP asks this question so he would know the altcoin to add to his portfolio.
Maybe I can suggest him to watch ethereum, litecoin, bnb, atom, tezos, and if he thinks that the coin can be an increase in a short term or medium term, he can analyze to get more info about when he can buy those coin and hold it. I think he will have more time to buy more at this time because the bitcoin price is not moving too high, and that can make the altcoin is not increased too high.

So be prepared from now on. If what you say is true then you have to prepare now. Because not everyone has the opportunity to see this kind of bull run. I think very positively about crypto. So for the last few years I have been trying to deposit some $ every month in my crypto wallet. So it is better for me if the bull market starts from now.

$1000 per LTC would make happy but $3000 would be a dream. Grin
I am sure if that happens, many of us will be millionaires since I guess they already bought litecoin at a low price, and they will make sure they can wait for that time to comes. When litecoin have time to increase, that will be good news for us, especially for litecoin holder because they want to make a big profit from litecoin as before.
