It depends on Money that they use for gambling. if the money came from a illegal job etc then that's a dirty money because of addiction on gambling some of people doing illegal just like rubbery or etc for just a small amount of money and they try to gambling it.this kind people are those who have a small source of income, and it's depend on what gambling their have and Status of Life they have.
That's almost a perfect statement, if the money spend on gambling is from some illegal activities then it can be termed dirty money. When the same is being spend from one's hard earning then it isn't dirty. I believe Op have missed, easy money is dirty money indicating the earning out of gambling as easy money. As for my view, earning out of gambling is not at all easy money. To earn that users undergo untolerable pressure because we've risked to get back an earning.

First of all get into any one of the service in which you're familiar about, further you can widen your ways of earning through the possible opportunities available. Trading is always good and requires large fund, because even a small variation gets huge profit. If you're with the plans of learning and further invest, it is a good choice to experiment. Lending practice is always a good choice
863  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bitmex to blame for the price crash or is it the darn futures? on: September 25, 2019, 07:04:49 PM
Right now more and more discussions relative to the price crash will happen. Some state it as the cause of bitmex, some state it because of Bakkt and very few believe this is common with the bitcoin. As the crash has taken place, so will be the growth. All that required is the patience, because same as the price crash growth too will happen without any prior signals.

Big list have been provided by different users, and in one of the post user himself stated he has got a list, but he doesn't vouch for those. From this it is true majority were not a trusted source for poker. If this services were rendered by the gambling sites like Sportsbet.io, Onehash, betcoin and similar other websites it would've been vouched.
865  Economy / Economics / Re: Which currency will dominate the crypto market? Please vote! on: September 25, 2019, 06:07:58 PM
Obviously it's gonna be bitcoin, perhaps ethereum will also be if the POS is implemented as you've stated above, bitcoin has been dominating and will continue to dominate the market .

For a coin to dominate the market it needs to exceed the market cap of bitcoin which I see is not possible for altcoins to attain because the market cap is relatively huge
Bitcoin always leads in the dominance level of the entire cryptocurrency. Once ethereum gave a close competence to the bitcoin which is the market leader till date. Further on there is no big growth or increase in the dominance level of ethereum. Now the difference between the two is very big. Ethereum has the market of around 8% while bitcoin has 70% of the market. As mentioned to exceed bitcoin's dominance is not that simple, and an impossible task.
866  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The secret of gambling? on: September 24, 2019, 07:09:55 PM
In this case, I can advise a person who does not have disciplines and self-control to start training them right now. These are very important aspects that will help not only in gambling, but also in everyday life. They will make life easier and more enjoyable, in particular, you can better control your own money.

It is difficult to learn things while you are used to the other  side of it. Just like learning to eat with the right hand while being  used with the left. As usual is difficult.

Talking about gambling, it takes a lot of effort to stop if you are always losing. Gambling is a habit that takes time to stop, is patience and self consciousness to work away.
Truly hard to stop it, my dad is a alcohol addicted, I used to scold him a lot for his activities after consuming alcohol. Now I feel bad of my mind, because through gambling I have lost more than what he have spend on buying alcohols. Now I've been restricting myself to not get into it.
867  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: TRX TRON will hit its ATL? on: September 24, 2019, 06:22:52 PM
Tron has been experiencing a big fall in its market value. Today it has fallen nearly 10% from its market value. Though there is big drop in value with most of the cryptocurrencies, what tron has been experiencing is quite big and this could lead to the market reach its all time low value which can be good for long term profiting. Before this there is good growth with tron during the launch of bittorrent pairing with tron. Once after that there is no big price move with tron which might happen with 2020.
868  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin bull run on: September 24, 2019, 05:42:07 PM
There is no perfect prediction about the market move. It is all about the coincidence taking place with the predictions made by the people. A bull run can be identified when there is continued growth in the marketcap along with the dominance. Now what we experience is just a fluctuation, because the market hasn't initiated any strong downturn. The price stays close to $9500, this will get changing within limited range until there is inflow of investment which too is a beginning for bull run.
869  Economy / Economics / Re: Mining in the cloud vs simply buying bitcoin on: September 24, 2019, 02:47:20 PM
By now mining in small scale isn't that effective and profiting at the moment. Rather than setting up a new mining farm it is always a good choice to buy bitcoin and hold. In between if one has got better learning about the trading analysis can use the same fund into trading practices. This will get regular earning compared to mining.
870  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why hasn't any altcoin replaced bitcoin? on: September 24, 2019, 12:09:56 AM
Bitcoin will always on top because of it's popularity and some of countries totally accept Bitcoin as the payment method. Bitcoin is unstoppable, that's why altcoin can't replaced it.
Many countries have accepted Bitcoin as a legal means of payment, many Bitcoin ATMs have been set up in many countries, the community of people who know Bitcoin is very strong, much more than other currencies. The value, security and decentralized platform that makes Bitcoin stand strong, are the irreplaceable

Simply Bitcoin is the only one real cryptocurrency and altcoins (even Ethereum) are just the attempts to repeat the glory of BTC. As BTC is limited in coins (21 million), it is strongly protected from inflation, and altcoins are not. The cryptocurrency number one will not years change its status for at least 20 years. I guess, finally, it will be really adopted globally, in less than 3-6 years.

I agree, Bitcoin is the currency that commands and the other altcoins depend on Bitcoin, simply because they have no life of their own. The dependence of the altcoins will always be given, there is no way other currency that can compete with Bitcoin given the history that has been presented.
It isn't life of their own, it is all because of the dependence. Just think of bitcoin which is valued in terms of USD. This doesn't mean it has a life of its own. There are few cryptocurrencies that have its individuality but they're not up to the level of the one that served to be the base for the entire cryptocurrency network.
871  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin up to $20,000 before 2020? on: September 20, 2019, 04:28:28 PM
3 months left to reach 2020 and in my opinion this is a very short time, no one can predict accurately about the increase in the value of bitcoin and all of them are just predictions that are not necessarily proven to be true.
the price of bitcoin reaching $ 20,000 or more is everyone's hope and let bitcoin move as it is.
3 months for bitcoin to reach $20000 is not short, in fact that is a very long time. We have seen the price up and down for a quite long time. If you can still remember back 2017 it just took 4 months to reach its all time high price roughly $21000, and that's the time more people come over the cryptocurrency. Maybe 2018 is not bitcoin's year, maybe this year or also not but don't let this matter affect your interest, time will come that bitcoin will be more than what you think.
Agreed, the growth took place in less than four months time during the previous massive bull trend of 2017. Right now we're in the ninth month of the year. We've got three more months to end the year. Following week there is more chances for growth as the Bakkt launch is scheduled for 26th of this month. During 2017, the growth took place in terms of $1000+ regularly. This way if the growth gets ignited reaching $20000 could happen even within a month.
872  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 Rugby World Cup predictions on: September 20, 2019, 03:48:07 PM
Rugby is much dominated by the Western nation, from the ranking table itself we can get a clear visual about the leading teams. Among the top ten teams Japan seems to be the only Asian country to get tenth position. In the first match Japan has started its winning rally, somehow finally it'll be taken by New Zealand from my view.
873  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: September 20, 2019, 03:07:48 PM
Let's just forget about this Stokes episode and move ahead. A lot of exciting cricket is happening right now and in my opinion, we should not let the Stokes scandal divert the subject. The 4-day match between India A and South Africa A has ended in a draw. During the last day, Priyank Panchal scored a century and Karun Nair ended up with an unbeaten 51. However, one of the players who have been shortlisted for the senior side (Abhimanyu Easwaran) failed in both the innings.
In this game Senuran Muthusamy South Africa born Indian has played. He has a big record in first level games scoring above 3000 runs with the highest being 181. Every team has got players who have got some relation with Indian cricket. I didn't watched the match, but looking upon the scorecard the match has been played well by both the teams.
874  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ICOs 2019: A Year Of Success or Failure? on: September 20, 2019, 07:38:34 AM
This year is bad for cryptocurrency ICO because there are many projects failed to collect the capital funds from their investors.
Although many icos failed, cryptocurrency will not die. I believe there will be 1 or 2 great ICO / IEO in the future that we can join on.
Unlike the year and the market trend there is growth with ico's. Till date I've come across very few projects that are into continuous development even when the market isn't that good. Such projects will surely succeed someday. 2017 it was big year for Cryptocurrency as more and more people invested big without much of analysis. Now scenario is different, the market is full of scams and to get rid and succeed is truly a hard thing. This year it was completely for the IEO. Even in that there are few exchanges that support scam attempts of IEO.
875  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Proof that bitcoin is needed, even by developed countries such as US of A on: September 20, 2019, 01:38:32 AM
The inflation percentage will never be the same every year, maybe this gets maintained or till the ruling party is in power. Even if the inflation level go high it'll be kept hidden to show that they're wealthy to the outer world. Over the next ten years we can experience big change on the inflation level as there is direct printing of money by USA and China. Bitcoin being limited, even if the president or any other entity tries the supply is fixed. This will surely help with reducing the inflation rate of the country using bitcoin in a planned way.
876  Economy / Economics / Re: Europe is against Libra. Who else? on: September 19, 2019, 05:09:35 PM
Facebook haven't responded on this issue, before the launch they're supposed to give clarity about libra and its features. I find this issue to be the same as the one we experience with bitcoin. There are countries that have adopted bitcoin, by the time there are countries that have banned bitcoin usage. This is based on their government policies, so libra too gets support from some countries and some will stand against it. Nothing is gonna make a big change in its launch.
877  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Nigerian crypto educator returns $80k in bitcoin recieve by mistake. on: September 19, 2019, 03:16:59 PM
This threads is as a respond to the numerous replies on my previous thread proclaiming everything Nigeria is been associated with negatively. The actual truth is the good/positive incident aren't been circulated like the negative news. The media are mostly interested in painting the country bad. This incident of a bitcoin entrepreneur returing 7.8 BTC (worth around $80,000 when the transaction occurs) is an example we do have good individuals among us. I did follow the development of the story when i saw his tweet informing about the mistake although I'll be linking you guys to a more reliable source.

Keith Mali Chung — the co-founder and president of African blockchain firm Loopblock Network — has returned almost $80,000 worth of Bitcoin (BTC) mistakenly sent to his wallet.

Chung — who goes by the Twitter handle of “Bitcoin Keith (The African Bitcoin Bull)” — tweeted about the incident on Sept. 12:
“I received huge sum of BTC from an unknown sender and it’s definitely a mistake from someone I must have had transaction with before, Kindly DM me time of transaction, your adress and exact digits sent..
thank you. Kindly retweet”

In a further update on Sept. 13, Chung revealed that the exact sum of apparently accidentally transferred Bitcoin was 7.8 BTC — worth $79,482 to press time. He also indicated that the sender who remains anonymous had responded to his request, meaning he was able to return the funds. He explained:

“In Africa, which is where I am situated, 80% we transact Cryptos through WhatsApp escrows and someone who himself and I had business in the past made this huge mistake of sending 7.8BTC into my blockchain wallet. I spread the words round & he reached out.”

Chung’s actions earned him significant social media acclaim and even the moniker of “African/Nigerian good samaritan” on crypto Twitter. Had he failed to identify the sender, he had pledged to donate the accidentally-gotten proceeds to Binance, which organizes a series of philanthropic projects via its charity arm, Binance Charity.  

In conclusion, Nigerians are enthusiast of this currency (bitcoin), Any Nigerian who have encounter the currency and invested wisely can testify it has had more effects in their life than the government had during that timeframe😁 all I'm trying to say is we mean well towards the adoption of the currency. Although this is a story of just one individual, there are many of us out there who would had done the same.

I can vouch for Nigerians  that they are good people, I'm not a Nigerian and had a lot of Nigerian friends and bad and good people exist in every country, it should not be associated to one nationality alone, going back to the Nigerian crypto educator who returns $80k in bitcoin received by mistake,  it's a good marketing for Bitcoin $80k is a big amount, and it will go higher because of Bitcoin's potential in the market.
No one here claims that Nigerian people are bad by nature. The situation prevailing within the country portrays them bad to the outer world. This will eventually change, and what we see is just a single news. There might be more and more incidents that have taken place over the past, but never revealed out.
878  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 8 Ball Pool game against live players worldwide - is gambling available? on: September 19, 2019, 02:50:06 PM
If this is a common game that's been played all around, now we could've seen it listed on majority of the gambling websites. At least it could've got access with cryptocurrency acceptance. I don't have any idea about this game, and I think it might have different name in my country. If possible please brief, how the game will be played.
879  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 💰 Summer Tokyo 2020 💰 Discussion and bet thread 💰 Summer Game on: September 19, 2019, 02:15:57 PM
This isn't that early to give updates on the Tokyo 2020. At least eleven months is required to discuss about the games that takes place for few weeks time. As usual this time too the point tables will be dominated by China and USA. I don't understand why players from other countries weren't able to make records and get more medals.
880  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bakkt is coming: will this be biggest crypto week ever and set off bull run? on: September 19, 2019, 10:52:46 AM
Bakkt!? Do you think they should be trusted?
They are making a change to the entire bitcoin network through the service offered. From the information gathered about Bakkt I believe there is more chances for people have more trust upon bitcoin. Bakkt is going to serve as the trusted platform to serve the common people who have been hesitant to invest on bitcoin considering its volatility.
