8881  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which is safer, USDT or Binance USD? on: May 21, 2020, 12:59:16 PM
I'm going to deposit some money into Binance Lending, i find BUSD's interest rate is 1% higher than USDT. Which one is better?
Every people will have a different opinion about that so you need to find for yourself which you should choose. If you think that BUSD can make you satisfied with the interest rate, then you can choose that. But you should research before you invest, so you know what is the risk if you invest in that. If you only need to keep the value your money, then USDT will be your choice, but if you search for making another profit, then BUSD could be your choice.

It is always to control the emotions while playing online at home where normally you don’t have any pressure yet I won 400 Eur yesterday and lose it all in just a few minutes as I raised the bet heavily trying to get that jackpot.In a physical environment it is even more difficult to contain the pressure so probably lose a lot there compared to playing online although even in online gambling pressure can get you.
I think no matter if we play online gambling at home, the pressure still is there, but maybe the pressure will not too big as in the physical casino because we meet other people in real situations. Whoa, losing 400 Euro is big money for me, and I will feel be sad if I am in your position. But I see that you can handle it with good Wink

I cannot imagine how big the pressure in the physical casino because I never go to that place. I prefer to use online gambling because I think it is difficult to handle our emotion in that place.

I still trying to manage the risk by preventing myself to play for a long time in one gambling website.

The fact that you are playing for long term in a gambling site, that means you trust the site, and that means you believe they are reputable.
An easy way to manage the risk is just don't put a big deposit that you will just let it stay, just do a regular deposit/withdrawal transaction after every gambling session.
But we don't have to play gambling every day on that site just because that gambling site is a trusted site. We cannot risk our money by playing gambling, especially with bigger money.
Yes, with that way, I am sure that we can reduce the risk, and we can manage our money that has been used to playing gambling. When we can win some money, it is better to withdraw the win money, and keep the initial money in our account but don't keep it in big money.
8884  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is like day trading ? on: May 21, 2020, 10:04:05 AM
Yes, I agree that day trading is one of source income that can give us a chance to make money. But before we do day trading, we need to learn more about day trading, what we need to prepare before we start day trading, and else.
Using bots to semi-automate our work in trading can be a solution, and I guess that bots can also be used in gambling, but I don't know how to use it.

Bots can automate things like scripts also can.The problem is not how to automate our day trading but the problem is that day trading like gambling is most of the times based on luck so it is impossible to win or be profitable in the long run.You cannot predict outcomes of major central banks meetings which are crucial to forex day trading for example.
That is true if day trading is like gambling, but if you can analyze before you do something, and you can get the right clue for what coin you can buy, I think you can avoid the gambling side. You can use the daily charts, minute and hours at the market to help you analyze so you can know when the time to enter the market. But I think it is hard to set the bot to do day trading because the market will always move.
8885  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: An inspirational story of a 19 year old boy. on: May 20, 2020, 12:47:29 PM
Well actually, this is not a complete success story. He received start-up capital from another person, ideally, he should have earned this money exclusively on his own, and then, understanding how they get to invest in cryptocurrencies.

I think that boy can be a good sample for another boy because he can manage the money from his parents to be used to buy bitcoin. I think he doesn't know if bitcoin could increase so high from the last time he bought. Maybe his parents teach him to use the money to invest in something that can give him profit in the future, so he buys bitcoin and holds it for some time. But I wonder if that boy has sold his bitcoin in 2017 or not because if he sold it in that year, I am sure that he will become a new millionaire among his friends.
8886  Economy / Speculation / Re: Possible to Manipulate bitcoin price?? on: May 20, 2020, 11:20:46 AM
It is possible to manipulate bitcoin price, but I don't think that the whales can move all of the exchange at the same time because that will risk a huge bitcoin amount, and I don't think that the whales want to do that. Maybe they can move the bitcoin price at one or two exchanges, and I think we can get besides on them to take the profit too because if we can analyze the price, we will get the good sign to buy bitcoin. But it is difficult to know when the bitcoin price will move so we could only be careful of what will happen in the market.
8887  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do I need ICO? on: May 20, 2020, 09:41:51 AM
As far as I know, bitcoin is not one man project. Satoshi can gather competent people to test and try the network, including mining bitcoin, so there is no ICO of bitcoin. You can do as Satoshi did, but you need other people who can test and try like what Satoshi did. At least you can invite your friends who have an interest in your project so they can help you. It is good if they can also help you in promoting your project.
8888  Economy / Economics / Re: How Will the current pandemic affect the crypto market? on: May 20, 2020, 09:11:15 AM
it affect , but not crash instanly i think , people withdraw after a month and after they realize how serious this pandemic was and the price slowly going to crash
People already realize that the pandemic is a serious thing that happens in almost country, so they concern with their health. We know that the crypto market is affected by the pandemic, but gladly, the crypto can survive until now, and the crypto market trying to rise again. And with the halving moment is already happening, people are waiting for the next bull run that can happen in the market.
bull run requires new money in the market to happen, and with the lockdown still implemented and people loosing their jobs, this idea might be very much not possible in the near future. But the Crypto market might rise after the end of this pandemic or when the country wide lockdowns are removed, but until then bull runs happening not seems possible at all.
Maybe that is one of many reasons for the market not to start to increase or start the bull run. I think when the lockdown is removed, and people can back to work or get the new work, the market will change too. And maybe that is a good time for the price to get started the bull run. So we hope that will happen soon, and we can make a lot of money again.

A day-trader defines as the one who conducts a wide number of short and long trades to capitalize on intraday stock price activity.
So definitely, your friend is a day-trader since he spends a lot of time looking at the market. I'm afraid that someday even though he has a lot of income due to day trading, maybe he might lose his ability to socialize with other people. If he's really into day-trading, try to consult on a programmer and make an AI that's built with his own preferences so he can have time to his friends and family.
Day trading is a great source of income in daily basis however it is time consuming especially now that the market is very volatile. Yes, I agree dealing with market right now might lose your time to socialize people but the thing is we have a corona virus right now that will make you think if it is worth having a conversation to anyone. So I think the need for bot is not necessary now as we are all in our home locked up which makes the gambling more convenient.
Yes, I agree that day trading is one of source income that can give us a chance to make money. But before we do day trading, we need to learn more about day trading, what we need to prepare before we start day trading, and else.

8890  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is the main purpose in gambling, always to make more money? on: May 20, 2020, 06:36:44 AM
There are many who do not like gambling I think if you don't know how to gamble well you are more likely to lose here However, there are many professional traders who do not see gambling as a means of entertainment but as a means of earning money. The higher the profit the greater the loss Many would have left the game if they hadn't made money from now on Its main purpose is to make money.

Yesterday I won 235 Eur with a 0.4 Eur bet in the slot machine Swords and the Holy Grail of Play n Go provider in Sportsbet slot section.I made it to the last bonus round where you have 5 free spins with 100 multiplier.While I was playing I was bored as I thought I would never win big in gambling yet I won a super huge amount considering the initial bet and the amount won.That made my day and not always the idea is to make more money as I withdrew 165 Eur and bought some digital items I needed while saving about 80 Eur to play again.
Even if I lose now no problem as I got what I wanted.
What we can learn from your story is we need to stop the games and withdraw the money while we have time to do that. We can use that money to buy anything we want, and if we're going to deposit some money to play gambling in another day, we can do that. But if somehow, we lose that money, we will not feel too sad because we already won much money. That is a good story, and I hope that you can win another big cash someday.
8891  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Wagering More or Wagering Less on: May 20, 2020, 06:00:51 AM
No matter if that site has reputations or the site is new, and both sites can give many bonus/promotions that will attract people to visit the site and gamble any games. But playing on the gambling site, which has a reputation will good for us as we know that the site operated for a long time. But if you are good to gamble on the new site, then that is your choice, and you should know about the site.
As long as you know the risk and you know how to manage it, you can always choose what site you will gamble.

Since I said I like to gamble in a reputable site compared to the new one but it does not mean I will not try the new one, but of course I will ensure that I will manage the risk, I have a limit in terms of the amount I can risk in a new website, and if I get scam, I would not be surprise as I always consider that as a possibility that is why I limit the risk exposure.
I am also trying to play in the new gambling site, although I don't too often to test the site, I think playing in the reputable site can give a feeling safe to us. But as you said, I still trying to limit everything when I want to play gambling because I really know about the risk behind gambling, and I don't want to get that risk before I am late to realize. I still trying to manage the risk by preventing myself to play for a long time in one gambling website.
8892  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you feel this pressure on physical gambling? on: May 20, 2020, 04:54:45 AM
I think the pressures on the opponents really happen, but the form will be different. I think people already face it in the casino, and they think that it is usual to happen in the casino. But for people who can control themselves, they will not get the effect of the pressures because they always take care of their money. They will not allocate more money to be used in gambling. They will not be a problem if their opponents think that they don't have money to play the games because they don't want to lose more money.
^ Something like that, when you start losing then pressure also comes in for players whether in an online casino or physical casinos doesn't want to lose in fact all of us aim to win at the end of the session and that is why we experience pressure when we gamble. There are some ways that we can overcome this feeling of goad like allotting a certain amount that we will not get hurt too much if we lose. Providing some conditions prior to starting the game such as letting other players that you only have this specific amount for the game or you only have a limited time to play, and when the clock beats the time you provided win or lose you will stop playing and leave. In my case, I always do these conditions because it helps me not to get pressured in the game but also it holds me back for being hooked nor addicted to gambling.
As long as we can know how to eliminate the pressure for not become bigger, we don't have to worry with that. We can still play gambling, enjoy the game, and have fun in the game without getting the effect of the pressure. Using some money that we can afford to lose will prevent us from feeling hurt or sad if we lose in the game so we can reduce the pressure itself. I always limit my money and time to play gambling because I don't want to feel the pressure, and I know that the pressure will be difficult to reduce.
8893  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling hiding, rules ignored. on: May 20, 2020, 04:23:22 AM
I heard there are people doing that in our community but never seen them since the rules to stay at home is strictly implemented in our place.
I know there are strict low of banning gambling during the pandemic, and I guess if you will report them, they will be arrested and they might be quarantine in the jail.  Grin

I think not just in your place, but in other places, some people do that because they cannot stay at home for a long time. I think people try to obey the rule to stay at their home and only a few people who still at the outside. But I don't know since I don't go out at night because I prefer to stay at home unless to go out to buy food.

This tells that these people have a gambling addiction, though gambling is prohibited due to the current situation, they still find a way to gamble although they are aware that they are breaking the law, these gamblers should be taught a lesson and that will be by getting them arrested.
Yes, at least, if they get arrested, they can think that what they did is breaking the law, and that can make other people in danger because of the virus is still out there. Maybe what they need is help from the doctor and psychiatric to solve their addiction, and I think that would be really necessary at this moment while they cannot go to someplace. We hope that the government concern about this, and they will care with those people. The important thing is that people can realize their addiction, and they want to cure their addiction.

I think not just in your place, but in other places, some people do that because they cannot stay at home for a long time.
Firm actions can be taken by the authorities such as arresting players and closing physical casinos because they deliberately break the rules regardless of what reason they are there. Their selfish actions can be disastrous for others because the pandemic still exists.

For knows, Legal physical casinos have licenses for the businesses they develop and this is not like a permit obtained from a high-ranking state official with military force or the like. The  physical casinos business permit is obtained from the authorized official who handles business-related matters. If permission is obtained from a high-ranking official with his military strength, then I am sure that the country is a country that has an illegal status in gambling and physical casinos are only places that benefit them with deposits.
The authorities can do firm actions at this moment because that would be an important thing before the suspected people infected by the virus can increase. Closing the physical casino will be the solution to make that person would not come back to that place, but that doesn't mean those people cannot find the other place to play gambling.

Although they have licenses from the authorities or something like that, if the country has a dangerous situation, that licenses will not work because the government will concern with the people lives. The government will consider that they need to save the people first than to think about the licenses.

The halving expectations are over now it's time to focus on other things, I am really excited to see the BTC price movements after this halving while writing the price is 9789$ isn't it a great thing.

BTC has hidden potentials as well Grin people were hoping a massive price in halving but it has started to shine after the Halving is a real shock to everyone. I hope the price will increase significantly.

The halving expectations are not over because bitcoin price still goes up and down, and bitcoin price does not yet reach the highest price like the last halving before. We can hope that the next highest price will be more than the last time the highest price ever so that can open people's eyes out there to realize that bitcoin price can increase so high. Bitcoin still has the hidden potential to grow, but we need to be patient to wait for that time, but we also have a chance to buy more bitcoin if the price is down.
8896  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin after the year of 2140 on: May 19, 2020, 12:49:02 PM
I don't think too much about what will happen with bitcoin after the year 2140 because I don't know what will happen with bitcoin. We will have so many predictions about what will happen in that year, but we still don't know for sure because all of us will not live until that year. Maybe we can give a message to our children, grandchildren to watch what will happen with bitcoin, so they can prepare before that time comes. But I could only predict that bitcoin at that time will be too expensive than today, and people will want to hold bitcoin because bitcoin is worth for them. But who knows the truth?

If I was given the option to play at a gambling with no bonus/promotions but a trusted site, I will choose it on a site which is new and not trusted but given a lot of promotions.
I will do the opposite, reputation is more important to me that what they offer, because at the end of the day, we just want to win if possible and to withdraw our money without any problem, which you could lose if you gamble in a site with no reputation, so the risk is high.
No matter if that site has reputations or the site is new, and both sites can give many bonus/promotions that will attract people to visit the site and gamble any games. But playing on the gambling site, which has a reputation will good for us as we know that the site operated for a long time. But if you are good to gamble on the new site, then that is your choice, and you should know about the site.
