9101  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What's your advisable source of capital to use for trading. on: July 28, 2019, 07:06:41 AM
I never use a loan to help me to start trading. I was fortunate that in 2013-2014, I can get a free coin from many faucets website, and I can use that free coins to start trading. In that time, I can earn so many bitcoin and altcoin in few months, and I don't use my own money to start trading. From that, I can slowly to collect so many altcoins for trading and saving more bitcoin until now, and that helps me to continue trading without borrowing money from others. I only think that if I use the money which I borrowed, I will get trouble to pay back the money because I don't have a high-skills in trading and I still getting lose from time to time. I think borrowing money will not a good way for me.
9102  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambler's mindset! on: July 28, 2019, 05:49:38 AM
I have tried to think what goes through my mind when ever I am trying to place a bet. I think something strange do happen to me and that is I always have this thinking that what if I lose, how am I going to feel! I have never want to lose in my mind I want to win always but I think this is impossible. Gamblers here did you always want to win all your bet? If you win all how will the gambling company makes profits?

Of course, I wanted to win every time I gamble. But then I was also all too aware that it is not going to be the case. After all, it is gambling. My mind, whenever I place a bet, is like on extreme hope that I will win but not expecting it. I hope that I will turn out a winner but I am expecting the worse. That makes me accept the loss and move on easily if it turns out that way unfortunately.

That is great if you can accept the loss and move on because not all gamblers can accept their loss, and they continue to play. Without accepting the loss, we are hard to realize that in gambling, there are only two options for us, which is we win or we lose. After that, we should accept whatever the results and stop from gambling, or if we decide to play for more, we need to make a limit, so our loss will not bigger than we can afford to lose.
9103  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: New casino vs old and trusted one on: July 28, 2019, 03:53:48 AM
That might be the chance for new sites to take care of the business, once a gambler switch over to their site they need to make sure to do everything in order to make them stay, customers satisfaction is really hard to acquired it takes time to gained but if the new sites really paying attention to what customers wanted to have while playing and then they'll able to provide it will be a good business relationship between them and the participants.

That is hard work for a new site to attract the gamblers to switch over to their website. But if they can do that, they will gain huge members who will join with them because the site can give something different and the site can give satisfaction. The customer's satisfaction is the most important point that the site needed to get a reputation among the other gambling site, so they need to give the best services to their members.

So giving a chance to the new gambling site can be a good way to know if the new site can compete with the old gambling site or not.
9104  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Perfect Dice experience on: July 28, 2019, 02:38:22 AM
Hey,

I was wondering about Dice games lately and what makes people choose particular platforms to play. I have my own reasons, but I'm really curious if yours are similar.

So my question is: What makes you choose the particular Dice platform and what are the most important aspects that makes you stay on it?

Bests,
bur4n


Provably fair is important of course, instant withdrawal, there must be chat and support always answer in just a matter of minutes, the design is also important, but one thing that attracts me and of course the whole community is the bonus giveaways that they do from time to time
Most of those successful dice sites always have a good giveaways especially for those who are active inside the chat, some tips are being randomly distributed to compensate those gamblers, it can be a good capital and if the gamblers is lucky enough they'll be able to win from those tips and enjoy after.

I already saw the giveaways had been sent in the chat room so people can get an additional amount of coins and they can continue to play gambling. That is good enough to attract more gamblers to their site because people will interest with something called free bonus or giveaways.

But that will not help you to win if you don't have luck and you only give the money back to the site if you lose again. But some people who already get the free bonus from the chat can win the next games, and they can make nice win money from the free coins.

What do you guys think? Bitcoin at 9400$ right know
I fully believe in Bitcoin, which is one of the coins I analyze and read about it a lot in the past. I don't hesitate to buy more bitcoin at the price below 11k now, I usually DCA to get more Bitcoin.
With a price of $ 9k4, you don't need to think anymore. Because 2020, everything will grow strongly again.

I hope bitcoin price doesn't have to wait for a longer to increase higher and will increase more than $15k this year. I believe in bitcoin too, and I always buy some bitcoin although I know that I don't have huge money to buy a lot of bitcoin, at least, I can get the profit if the price can increase more than $300. The price now still a good price to buy because the price still at $10k range of the price but we have a chance to see it goes down again and who knows, we can buy bitcoin at a lower price, so don't miss that chance.
9106  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: BNB time to invest ? on: July 27, 2019, 07:29:25 AM
Hi guys
do u think 0.00290 - 0.00295 is good price to invest in BNB ?

For some people, they wouldn't mind buying BNB at that price, but for the other people, they will wait for another lower price. That will make personal decision to buy BNB at any price, and if we agree with the risk, then we can buy BNB now or later. I still buy BNB, and if I see that the price can get lower than that price, I will buy BNB so I can add more of BNB. If you don't want to get a big risk, you can buy BNB from small amount first while you are waiting for another lower price so we can get more BNB.
9107  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Poker Myths - Help you become better players on: July 27, 2019, 04:37:57 AM
I only play poker on my PC offline/online, nothing money involved yet as I am not into gambling too but more of leisure only, I know it will be different if you are face to face with your opponent/s. I think poker is a game of luck and concentration and might involve some emotions.

Can you share the name of the poker software you played? I guess that will help us and other people to learn about playing poker and we don't have to risk our money to learn. That will be a good way for us if we can master the poker game before we play using the money and I think we can learn deeper about the poker game. But yes, in the poker game, we will need the luck to win, and yes, I agree that we need to bluff to convince the other player that we have a good card, so they will think that they don't have a chance to win.
9108  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling destitute on: July 27, 2019, 03:32:26 AM
Because gambling is risky so of course if you play all of your money you become destitute. Many people became poor because they gamble everyday until their money all gone. But it's their choice fo play even they know the consequences they still play in gambling and only some of them are lucky and most of them losing more money until they become poor.

precisely they play gambling just to get money quickly, they are indeed aware of the risks that will be faced from gambling itself. many of them suffer losses from gambling which causes poverty but even so if we often do gambling, of course, naturally addiction in gambling is difficult to avoid

We cannot think to get money quickly from gambling because gambling is design to enjoy the game and spend the money. If we are winning, then it is lucky for us, and we cannot depend on the luck over and over because luck will not always be on our side. When we cannot think and realize about that, we only continue to playing gambling, and in the end, we will lose the money. The worst thing that we can get is addicting to gambling, which will make our life become bad.
9109  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: KYC Process (Sportsbook) on: July 27, 2019, 01:45:24 AM
but if you follow rules you should be ok if the casino you join is legit.
As long as its legit, going through the KYC process should not pose any problems whatsoever, though new sportsbook/gambling sites hardly ever ask for KYC except if course you're attempting to deposit or withdraw quite a large sum.
But always be cautious of the documents you're required to deposit, if any doesn't suit you or if you feel it's suspicious, it's adviced you back out

Fortunately, we are using crypto gambling, which will allow us to play gambling with or without complete the KYC. If we are okay with the KYC and we can find the legit gambling website, we can go to with them. But if we don't like KYC, we can choose the gambling website which is not applied KYC, and we can find recommended gambling website too. That is our decision of what we want to select because playing gambling with crypto means we are free to choose the website, and we can select any gambling site.
9110  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Old Bounty Project Or A New Bounty Project? on: July 26, 2019, 11:17:39 AM
You prefer to follow the old bounty project (token already on the exchange) or new bounty project (token in development)
what are your views with them?

I prefer to follow the existing project, which has a history in their past because that could be our guide to investing with them or choose the other projects. I don't suggest to choose a new bounty project because we don't know if they are good to continue the project until it's finished. It is better to select the previous project, but you should only choose the project which is in the top 100 coin list so you can monitor their movement. Besides that, you can take attention to the top 50 coin list with each project because their chance will bigger than the other coin.
9111  Economy / Economics / Re: The market starts looking real nice in Q2, 2019 on: July 26, 2019, 09:43:52 AM
I don't want to be too optimistic but I would say I'm content with just the way it is now. It's not bearish but it's the same time it's not rising too high to an unsustainable price. As of today it's back to $9k. I would say maybe the highest we'd get this year would be $15k and if we do then I'd be fine with that.
At least the market is looking good though it cannot sustain to continue rising. We have to observe the market flow this coming months and hopefully we will see it rising again.

Optimistic is necessary to give new hope for us, especially if we see the market is not good for trade because that will help us to survive from the worst situations. And right now, I guess the market is trying to be stable for a while because bitcoin price and altcoin try to increase the price. Some of the altcoins are trying to move while bitcoin is not moving higher or lower. We can hope that in the next week, the market will have a significant movement and bitcoin and altcoin can increase higher than now.
9112  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Reasons Crypto Players Skip Casinos with KYC on: July 26, 2019, 07:03:01 AM
Beyond the reasons mentioned in the Op I find a much important factor that keeps gamblers skip the KYC process is the fear of governments. Someday if governments request to submit the data of each and every user, our information gets revealed with the
amount wagered in total. Some foolish governments might also levy tax taking it as a proof of spending though most games lost.

Right! And with government's interference, there will be tax imposed upon the operator. The more tax is imposed, the more charges there will be on the players' transactions with the casino.

Exactly, not only that it can increase the charges or fees it also defeats the purpose of using crypto in gambling. Most people use crypto because it is hassle-free and at the same time a player can remain anonymous, thus, if a site has KYC players normally back-out because it can compromise their identity.

When the governments interfere, the tax will be applied in the gambling industry, and like above me said, and there will be more fee that will apply too. That will make gamblers search another gambling places that will not use KYC so they can play without verifying their account using their document. Yes, that is too risky to use our document because no one can always protect the real data of the customer and besides that, we are heard and knows that the document was sold in the dark market.
9113  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Celebrities you probably don't know were(are) aggressive gamblers on: July 26, 2019, 04:12:16 AM
Not a surprising list to be honest, gambling often becomes a pass-time for the wealthy. However, like most things the thrill of the game can corrupt and turn even celebrities into puppets.

That being said, most of these can afford to lose a fair whack without it affecting their life circumstances.
Yeah right mate, gambling is for every one and if our celebrities are willing to gamble it’s good news because it will increase the popularity of gambling in the world. I think we should find more celebrities to tell them about gambling. It is open way of earning money anyone can use it, some use gaming to earn money some to become famous and some for time pass

Yes, they are easy to come to gambling places because they have a lot of money and they can spend so much money to play any games, and they can stay for a long time. They don't have to afraid if in the middle they gamble, they lose their money because they will use another money to continue playing gambling, but we could hope they can prevent themselves from becoming addicted to gambling. Perhaps, if they can use crypto gambling, it will help crypto to be known by many people, especially for the other gamblers because that will give curiosity to other gamblers to used crypto as the bet.

If you wanted to crack the code like him, you shoud:
1. Be a mathematical genius
2. Crack the new algorithms for the new system of lottery since its computerized now
If I have this kind of ability to crack new algorithms, I will not reveal my true identity Cheesy.

But men, this will take time to learn. I'd rather not to gamble my money in lottery than learning this and in the end, you will fail or will be imprisoned Cheesy.
Yeah, all eyes on that guy because he made a lot of money or maybe he's already part of the gang who wants to collect huge money from the casinos. Worst case here you will not just put in the jail, someone might kill you because of the money you have. Its not easy to won in gambling as always, just have fun playing simple games.

I will be afraid to carry the money to my home if I win that a lot of money because I guess that all eyes in the casino or in out of the casino will watch me. I will ask the security to go to my home so I can feel safe.

Even if that story is true, we don't know what was happening to the person because we are far from his home. But we could see that luck will come to the right person and help that person to win a lot of money like him.
9115  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you buy lottery online in bitcoin payment? on: July 25, 2019, 05:07:04 AM
I never win on lottery even on real life. That's why I try to avoid any kind of lottery on real life. Also I am not interested to buy any kind of lottery even from online although it's possible to buy by bitcoin. But its true if there is this kind of oppurtunity then more lottery players will know about bitcoin. So I am not fan of lottery.
I seldom buy lottery tickets because i'm not that lucky compared to other gamblers.But if ever i will purchase one,i would like to know how much is the price first.Even without online services,if i really want to buy lottery tickets,i can still buy using my fiat currency since there are a lot of stalls around in my place.

Yes, before we buy the lottery tickets, we need to know the price of the lottery. Although we can buy with bitcoin, we need to limit how much we should buy the tickets because, for me, bitcoin is one of the best investment. And I don't want to use a big amount of bitcoin to buy the lottery. But in the past, sometimes I bought lottery tickets in my neighborhood but like above me said, I never got to win the jackpot. It is very difficult to win the jackpot because that will depends on the luck.
9116  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you ever looked at how much you have wagered with a hanging mouth? :P on: July 25, 2019, 12:52:44 AM
I have quit gambling now.

However, when I look at the wager amount of my accounts in various sites and add them up, a total of 15 BTC comes up!

That's around $150000= 10,500,000 INR ! Around 1 crore Rupees or 0.15 million dollars!

I know it's easy to reach that wager since wager counts all bets even on 99% chance wins so if someone with 1 BTC wagers 20 times on 99% win chance and win all, they will wager 20 BTC!

But still to think I have wagered that much amount leaves me with a open mouth sometimes. Overall I'm in loss tho xD


I don't want to make those calculations for my losses!
Probably I would fall in depression after that as I would think so many things that I would do with that money If I haven't gambled them in the casinos.
I know that I am in Loss as you do, but it is better not to know the amount...

Sometimes if we know how much we losses can make us stress, depression, feeling bad, and we want to recover the losses by playing gambling more and more. And if we are in those conditions, I guess we cannot control ourselves to prevent more losses because all we think is about how to recover the losses and we can get back the money. We will think that ouch I spend too much money on gambling, I will try to get my money back, and I will play for some round. But if we have a strong control for ourselves, we will not think like that, and we will let it go because that is the risk in the gambling game.
9117  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Name ALTCOINS that will take off until 2022 on: July 24, 2019, 10:11:04 AM
Actually, three years is very long from now. So we can't predict anything perfectly. But with my knowledge, I suggest you Ethereum.  Because had strong base as like of bitcoin. In some country, people use Eth for their trade and transaction instead of bitcoin.Long term holding of altcoin is the wise idea to earn huge money from it.

Ethereum will have a big chance to increase in a long time and although right now, the ethereum price is not too high, the price will getting up soon. But there are many more altcoins which we can buy right now because many altcoins are getting down and actually, we have so many options to choose any altcoin. Perhaps, we will be confusing to decide what coins we need to buy because, in the market, all of the altcoins will have the same opportunity to increase higher in the future.
9118  Economy / Economics / Re: Does China Control Bitcoin? on: July 24, 2019, 08:09:30 AM
Here's an interesting article citing some recent research which claims that the majority of mining power is in China, and those miners may have some perks that others outside the country do not have.

Here's the article.
https://thenextweb.com/hardfork/2018/10/08/china-means-intent-destroy-bitcoin/

It talks about whether China could destroy Bitcoin, or perhaps use it in some other way.

What do you think? Does China control Bitcoin? If so, is it the government or no? Are these Chinese Bitcoin mining farms working together? What might China do with Bitcoin (government or no) in the future? AKA, attempt to destroy Bitcoin (would they be successful, do you think), use it to bring more wealth into the country or personal pockets, use it to attack other nations, etc?

Looking forward to your thoughts,
The Cyberius team. 

I don't think China holds and control the flow of Bitcoin. Yes China has a vast user of cryptocurrency compared to other countries but it does not mean they control something like bitcoin though.

I think the same thing as you. It is hard for China to control bitcoin because it will need big money to have bitcoin or to buy bitcoin. Although they have a big mining company in the world, they still cannot control bitcoin. They are trying to regulate bitcoin and want to buy as much bitcoin, or they want to mine bitcoin by their hardware. That will happen too with the US, which wants to regulate bitcoin. Bitcoin is free for all people, and no government can control bitcoin, I guess so they could only ban bitcoin from the people used.
9119  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Exchange asking to Login thru Facebook on: July 24, 2019, 05:59:55 AM


By next year we shall see the result of the Libra development and if its going to be a successful launch, do you think one day we shall see a facebook login button on exchanges like binance? Would you login to it?  Grin  I have seen this on websites like medium.com. Worse is taht not only binance but also kraken and bittrex  Grin

I guess that will going on happen in the future but I think they will have another option for members to login into their account because of many people still not comfortable to use their facebook login to enter to their exchange account. I think the exchange will think about the comfortability for their members and if they think that is not necessary for their members to login using their Facebook, then they will add an additional way to log in. But lets we wait and see what will happen in many exchanges.
9120  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: New casino vs old and trusted one on: July 24, 2019, 05:10:56 AM
Trust vs newness of startup

Advantages of existing companies are trust. Disadvantages can be delayed.
Advantages of startups New and promotional. Disadvantages There is no trust.

From your description, we know that the old casino has a trust which cannot be found in a new casino, but they have disadvantages delayed the transaction. But for the trusty casino, they won't delay anything because that will relate to their reputations among the gamblers. They don't want to disappoint their members because of the delays in anything. But the new casino can have that, and they do not yet have a reputation, and that makes gamblers need to be careful when they choose the new casino.
The mere fact that reputable gambling casinos are always after their business' welfare, they will not allow anything bad to happen with their business. Unlike those new created ones which are still trying to be noticeable and trying to build good connections with their target gamblers. It's all about how they can gain trust as an advantage, which all the gambling owners are trying to established.

Getting trust review from the members or people will give them a big chance to gain more members to join with the gambling website, so their site will become bigger. That is what the new gambling site needed to get reputations, and they give the best services to their members by protecting the member's data and not give trouble for the members. Once they can gain trust, more gamblers will feel comfortable to stay with them and play for a long time.
