881  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: CRICKET BETTING PREDICTIONS PROFESSIONAL on: April 30, 2017, 08:06:33 PM
I have been following cricket since my childhood and I am pretty sure that I can predict outright winner in Indian Premier League, but wait for that. Grin
these are my prediction for tomorrow's games ( every day there are 2 games).
Doesn't matter how long you have been following cricket for.IPL games are fixed.I've been betting on most of the IPL games with high odds and almost parley most of the games.I've stopped two weeks back.
Not to mention but I do get predictions from pro sportsbooks content writers who can barely be wrong but when it comes to IPL matches,they are.Everything if fixed and it can be changed in the middle of the game.Ask any bookie,any better of IPL games,they'd tell you the same.
I do understand your assumption by the fact that some IPL matches are fixed and it is really difficult to predict the games completely ,if you look at the performance of RCB this year they did have a team which can win any tournament but their performance was the opposite and that goes with some of the matches being played.There was a time when you get information about the matches played ,you will get information regarding when a wicket will be lost and how much runs will be given in a particular over but now it is difficult to get those information after a crack down years back,but i am sure there will be people knowing these information.

This year the IPL matches are played like other low level country T20 leagues if you see the Bangladesh Premier League matches they were also going the same way, so this year IPL matches are not only fixed from starting but they are changed in fixing in the middle of the game. So it is better to not play on all matches of IPL better to wait and watch game.
882  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are bitcoin cash machines becoming more popular? on: April 30, 2017, 08:01:54 PM
I heard there was a spike in 2014/2015, haven't heard much about it in the news recently.
Yes indeed, there was many new BTC cash machines created in 2014 and 2015, but we are talking about past now.
From that time, there are still new being created, and we can see more of them showing up in the public places.
It still depends in which country and city you are, but I think that there should be at least one bitcoin ATM in your region.

But to be honest, im not using such a service because maybe it is comfortable but i need pay a fee even up to 7-8%.
That is why I just prefer to sell my BTC on some kind of exchange, where I get bank transfer on my account. The commision is greatly lower.

ya it is true that withdrawing cash from bitcoin ATM machine are costlier then converting the bitcoin to fiat currency and using it, apart from that if i am not wrong only most of the Euro country are having the Bitcoin ATM  machines. So their is not such demand in 2016 or 2017.

Bitcoin is the power to earn money through online work, apart from that Bitcoin technology is very strong, Today bitcoin values more then gold type for investment and its returns are very good.
884  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How much can u lose with gambling? on: April 30, 2017, 12:07:56 AM
I can lose how much in my wallet but I'm afraid to lose who and when. What I'm saying is money can be solved and replaced with hard work if you're willing to do so. How about the people that surrounds you will disappear because of your addiction? How about time, days, hours, and minutes you spent in gambling, can you even return pushing back the time? So when I gamble I make sure I risk only the limit what I have.
to me as i play gambling with a strategy, therefore to me i think i can lost a fixed amount of money in gambling, because i am a strong decision take person and can play according to my planing and strategy, i can even stop gambling when i reach to the limit that i have fixed for gambling without exceed the limit. 

What you are telling is just what bankroll system to follow when ever you are gambling so that you can fix that how much you can lose every day without affecting your daily life so that you can come back next day and play gambling with out a bad feeling of last day lose. This will keep you in gambling for long time and you will be in profit

Holy crap what a match i never knew gujarat is such a good team. Super over i really can't believe it we are seeing a super over. I feel gujarat is going to win this match. I had also put my bet on gujarat of 20$ i just hope they win the match. I was happy i put my bet on supergaints in the first match. Rcb is officially out this ipl
Yes the match was very exciting last 3 overs back to back wickets and last over 1st ball 6. 1 ball 1 run OMG it was too exciting. Super over started Pollard and Buttler is batting 2 balls 5 runs. Let's wait how many runs they will make in remaining 4 balls. GL also have top batsman to play in power play. I think GL may win this game.

Somehow I don't believe this IPL matches results. It looks like organisers to attract more viewers may be creating these interesting movements in the match. Because if you look at the RCB team. They got one of the best batsmen in the team but in last few matches they are not able to score even six runs per over. Anyway, I'm enjoying these matches but didn't bet on even single IPL matches this year. Think twice before placing bets on these highly fixed games.

This is not new from the starting IPL matches are highly unpredictable, and here you will see lot of teams which are loosing even in good condition. This type of t20 matches are fully manipulated by the organizers and bookies. RCB team is the big one involved in fully manipulating the matches.

The altcoins which i am following is ICN, ICOB and VSL, this are some coins which are undervalue in the sense that still they are in developing stage and when they are fully finished you can see the price which will be more high.
887  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is this man addicted to gambling? on: April 29, 2017, 11:15:12 PM
My close friend is 50 years old. He's never been addicted to anything throughout his life. His friend made a poker website and now he keeps playing there a lot. he also uses some free tickets to tournaments he gets from betcoin.ag signature campaign. He plays almost every day for a few hours. And he became more nervous in general. But he doesn't think he's addicted and his argument for that is that he can stop playing for a day or two (that's true) and he doesn't spend his own money on it at all. Would you call such a man addicted?

This is also one type of addiction whether the money is involved or not but now he is addicted to play for free tournaments and above that playing poker everyday but this type of addiction can be stopped so it is not much harmfull
888  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Most of the money on: April 29, 2017, 11:13:19 PM
I am making most of the money through poker and sports betting because in this both gambling strategy works and in sports betting you get all records of the teams and their last performance and so many other things which makes it clear of which bets make you profit.
889  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What about the idea of a bitcoin shop in big cities? on: April 29, 2017, 10:16:51 PM
It could attract some casual users. Many people know Bitcoin a bit, but never learned enough to use it. A Bitcoin shop with kind Staff could help.

But will it attract enough people who are willing to use the Bitcoin shop too? Won't using an online shop be the more comfortable solution?
You are right, It's a good idea to open bitcoin shops in big cities, It will attract many peoples, People who know bitcoin and people who don't know it. In these two cases it's too great for bitcoin. I am with this idea. and one day i want to buy some staff using my bitcoin in the real world.

Opening a bitcoin shops in big cities is very good idea, but the main problem will be that whether the bitcoin is legal in that country where you are going to start the idea because until you dont have clear view on taxation and legalization of bitcoin you cannot start any shop without problem.

If you have  sent  the coins from your one wallet to another wallet then you will surely receive back the coins, but if you have used another exchange wallet then you will be in trouble as they have told that exchange wallet use temporary wallet that cannot be used another time.
891  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What to do with the people who don't like Bitcoin? on: April 28, 2017, 11:27:16 PM
The person who dont like bitcoin is if they had any bad experience when they used to use bitcoin and have invested in any bad investment scheme and got cheated or else if anyone have cheated them with false commitment. Apart from that even if after knowing about the bitcoin features and its value they are avoiding is then the reason should be very big and we should know it and solve it because their is no reason which dont have any solutions.
892  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What was the value of 1 Bitcoin when you first mined/purchased? on: April 28, 2017, 11:23:58 PM
Actually i dont remember the value of Bitcoin in $ but it was nearly Rs.29000 and it went upto till 45000 but after that the price started to decrease and i also got less pay due to price being very low nearly Rs.15000 but then also i had faith on it and today the price is Rs.85000 and even my rank is also high so what ever i am earning is very big and more enough for me to save it. and the main and best part is that i never purchased through fiat currency only i have earned by various ways.
893  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: "You have not payed you Bitcoin capital gain tax"? on: April 28, 2017, 11:19:47 PM
How is that any different from having coinbase for example handing details to the IRS for example? Its pretty much the same thing If you ask me and also, Its probably just a matter of time since they will actually regulate bitcoin and tax it.
They can only regulate Bitcoin that they know about.  Anyone that really wants to launder their money or avoid paying taxes will probably be capable of it unless governments do some very complicated analysis.

It seems unlikely that many people will be contacted for avoiding tax if they were actually trying.
Only works if you ever did a transaction through exchanges which can be traced since users  have to identify themselves before use its services. I don't know how gov will tax a person without any evidence, just like a transaction between two persons (buy and sell), it's untraceable. However, my country still not regulate or identify bitcoin to get taxes and I guess not even in the nearly future, maybe in 5 years later.

That is true that if you have purchased the bitcoin through fiat currency then it is compulsory needed to show the transactions in tax, but that is not needed if you have traded very small trades. But if you show in tax also it is not bad as it will gain you only with other headaches if in future it becomes compulsory.
894  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Mining fees on: April 28, 2017, 11:15:11 PM
Let's clear this up since the responses here seem a bit confusing.

With online wallets that you sign up to, you are not sending the transactions, they are.  Therefore they have control over what fees you pay, however all of the fees are going to the miners.

The fees which the online wallet will be paying for your transaction will either be the same as a normal transaction like blockchain.info, or in the case of some providers they will group together several transactions into one transaction (a batch transaction) to lower the amount of fees they have to pay overall due to lower transaction sizes in bytes.  If they offer it for free, they're probably doing this along with their own methods of earning profit from running the wallet so that they can cover your costs themselves.

Electrum is a "real" wallet.  That means that you are sending the transactions.  When you're doing it, you have responsibility over the fees you pay.  The fees which will result in a quick confirmation do not rely on the wallet - sending from a hardware wallet, a software wallet (like Electrum) or any other wallet which you actually own yourself will only rely on the size of the transaction.

The main thing that determines the size of the transaction is the number of inputs and outputs in the transaction.  If you accept 1 Bitcoin three times and then you send a 3 Bitcoin transaction, that 3 Bitcoin transaction will have 3 inputs.  The more inputs, the higher your fees will be.  Outputs are just what addresses you're sending to, so your fees would then be higher if you were doing a batch transaction as well.  There are other factors which are why batch transactions are cheaper, but these are the main factors that you can control.

That's part of the reason why faucets are a waste of time - if you accept too many payments, your fees will get nearly as high as your amount of Bitcoin.  The only way to remedy the insane fees are to use faucet caches which hold the Bitcoin until you have a high enough amount to withdraw, but it'll take a long time because faucets are still just paying dust anyway.

Thank you for summing it all up and making it clearer. So, if I am planning on saving bitcoins it would be better to deposit and convert it from larger monetary values rather than depositing by small values, lessening input transactions and therefore lessening the fees required to withdraw. I want to have my long term savings on bitcoins, with its price increase greater than global inflation and value depreciation of fiat currency. If I will have the Electrum wallet would it still be adviseable to get a hardware wallet like Trezor or Ledger Nano?

If you are throughly happy with Electrum then i think that you dont need hardware wallet , Electrum is enough for all deposit and withdraw purpose and storing and using it is also very easy.
895  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will bitcoin be used to support terrorists? on: April 27, 2017, 11:33:17 PM
If i remember first the bitcoin was introduced to use it for silk route to deal the underworld mafia transactions, and then after the silk route was shut down by the government the bitcoin technology was leaked out and then it came to the real world and everyone started to enjoy it, not it is more like a online digital currency. So it is upto the users to use it which ever way they want just like fiat currency is also used by both good and bad ways. Then why only bitcoin is getting so much of attention
896  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BTC is Gold 2.0 – What humanity has been waiting for centuries on: April 27, 2017, 11:29:51 PM
I dont think that bitcoin may be called as a "gold 2.0".
I dont see any really common things that bitcoin and gold have, except that some of the people are using it for investing purposes, and do speculation on both of the assets.

But bitcoin is not something that price is going up during the crisis, because gold usually behaves like that.

When there is a threat of some kind of war, the gold is becoming usually more expensive because the demand is higher than usual. It can rise up the price in particular country.

They are both good as store of value.  Bitcoin due to its nature to increase in price is a good way of storing value.  Aside from that the rarity of Bitcoin and how it is mined is based on gold rarity and how it is mined.  So I guess with this, I believe that BTC is gold 2.0 ( digital gold)

What you said is correct, bitcoin is more good like investment just like we do gold as investment, but in bitcoin the price will always increase in long term till their are so many good news pour, and more country accept the digital currency.
897  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC ETF SEC APPROVED on MAY 15th on: April 27, 2017, 11:27:55 PM
Bitcoin is getting reconsidered once again do you think its going to get approved or denied? Approval does it mean BTC rockets up ? Denial does it mean it takes a dump like in March? May 15th is the last day of approval.
I never got a chance to pay much attention to the first round of the ETF approval, but if I remember correctly they thought about it and then firmly rejected it. I don't think they're interested in letting it through, especially since it means that the SEC is permitting companies to make money outside of the "traditional" markets and, somewhat by extension, concede that Bitcoin is something people can make money from.
There might also be a lot, and by a lot I mean too much, money for an ETF to make in Bitcoin, and the SEC likely knows this.
If I get the opportunity then I might invest, but that hinges on this actually being a thing.

Their are lot of things to be done before getting approval of SEC to add bitcoin in ETF, this is just creating a rumour like last time and the market is reacting according to it, i think very soon we might see the price crashing.
898  Economy / Economics / Re: Will you invest in a MLM scam in early stage? on: April 27, 2017, 12:06:00 PM
What is the advantages of MLM scam if I invest ??

There's no advantage if you are going to invest there. And haven't you noticed the word next to MLM you had typed? It's scam, so there's no advantage if you are going to invest there, instead you are just going to experience a lot of inconvenience and disadvantage. Don't believe people that are giving you false information about it.

I agree, it's only a waste of time or money. I have not seen a single person who really earned a lot of money there. Everyone is just deceiving and trying to drag more people into his cell.

If you find anyone saying that he got earned in initial time then 99% he should be the owner of that MLM scheme because in the initial stage they itself invest and earn and show other how much they are winning and after some one start to invest in initial they will give you return but after then everything will go off. This is the way of scamming the users through this MLM scheme
899  Economy / Economics / Re: Big Reasons Why Many Families Are Feeling Extreme Financial Stress on: April 26, 2017, 03:31:50 PM
it's strange that they have so high inflation when the inflation reported is not increasing in comparison with the previous years

inflation currently it's at its lowest level for now in 2017, this is not true for all country, turkey have the highest it seems

it must be said if that price increase is due to the USD losing its purchase power, or those are really price that were incresed by vendors of those products

No no, the price really increase.
Problem is that average inflation will take everything into account...
Who cares about the inflation of luxury bags for example? Well if average price of luxiry bag went a bit down then average inflation will also take that into account...

Inflation is relative to be honest, if the price index of a country increases but also the average income of the citizen also does increase, there is really no point as their spending power does not change. If it does not effect the equilibrium of the price and income of the people it is fine.

The main reason for the inflation high is the taxes which are varies from each country system, if you take my country each state charges their own taxes apart from that central tax is their so the commodity price automatically become high, and it is true that most of them are not planning properly and purchase high goods and when they want to pay back they face finance problem.
900  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When to leave the game? on: April 25, 2017, 10:34:15 PM
In addition to goals in money management, I also set day stop goals for gambling. As soon as I meet a rule, I stop gambling. This includes a lot of self-control, but I've learned it over time. In the beginning, it was very hard to the rules. Meanwhile it is no longer a problem. I would never continue gambling if I would not have any rules. I am convinced this would lead to total loss sooner or later.
stick to the rules are about how you control your emotion to not become greedy .

no matter how hard you keep yourself in control , greedy will always there when you lost or win. that is human nature , no wonder people struggling to leave gambling in profit condition , they have to mastering about to be a super patient guy.

What you told is one type of condition of gambler but i have seen some gamblers who when start to play in control for some days that time even if they are lucky that day they play some games and leave it, but after some time seeing lot of games , one day they face a loss from start and after recollecting old games try to cover it as thinks that that day it happened like that and in that process they lose temper and in the end become nill.
