9121  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling made for kids???? on: August 15, 2016, 04:15:30 AM
yes that's the main problem right now. I think if that kid was properly be guided and monitored is the best way your the parents to know if their kids was doing illegal stuffs like gambling. Gambling sites has really don't have the capability to know that all their users is legit.
Most cash-only gambling sites actually have high tolerance for non-adult gamblers.

Bitcoin gambling sites however, just as you said, have no legit way of determining if their users are all of legal age. They probably wouldn't mind it though since more users = more profit for them because of the house edge.
As long as there are no rules they have violated gambling sites will continue to operate the way it used to using bitcoins because the are only after of profit and they will do all things to improve their market to maximize their income.

Well, thats business no matter what happen they dont mind  if there are minors are playing as long teres no complain about them or any violated rules then they would definitely continue their operation to make good profits.
9122  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: August 15, 2016, 04:13:51 AM
Saving money maybe the most stupidest way  to lose your money. Why? Because even if your money is inan bank savings account every year you lose in Inflation your money depreciates its value and you don' t know it. So maybe investing it is a better choice.

saving money as in having money aside for when you need it is a good option. but if you save money just for the purpose of earning interest, then it's not a good idea. to avoid seeing your fiat holdings decrease in value people should always choose to invest a part of their wealth. that's the only way how you can avoid seeing the value of your wealth turn into hot air.
Saving money and setting it aside must be the way on how you silently or blindly make you money decrease. I mean if you set money aside inflation will decrease your money's buying power. While Investing it in atocks whicha has an annual 20% return is not bad and actually beats the inflation rate of most.

Investing in stocks seems to be risky as it goes same like investing in bitcoin as no one can control the price, but as we know that higher rewards comes only with higher risks.

Investing in stocks is a lot easier than bitcoin. Because when the prices go down they still buy because they know it is on a discount we call it averaging down, a popular technique of Warren Buffet that made him into a billionaire.

When you average either stock or any other product should think twice whether that product future is good or bad because sometimes prices will come down due to short-term issues and during that time if you average down then surely you will make a good profit in the long run. But sometimes due to some real and permanent issues prices will come down then it is better to sell off immediately and take the lose instead averaging down to take more losses in future.

Its your decision on when to sell on a certain timeframe. Some may hold for so long and dont mind if they loss some money out of it they dont care and they are just hoping  to have a pump up in future. Some may panic sell because of being afraid on losing those funds.

I am visiting dark marketplaces but I don't want to purchase anything from it. It gets me scared whenever I'm trying to visit it because a lot of scammers and hackers are all over there.

Its okay to visit or just  sight seeing in the dark marketplaces  there would be no harm but  on purchasing something into their would really put you into trouble because you dont know whos behind that identity. If you are trying to purchase drugs on a certain person which you dont even know then the truth is  fbi is on that then you got screwed  in the end.
9124  Other / Off-topic / Re: Are you buying bitcoins? Why? on: August 15, 2016, 04:09:36 AM
not yet, but i want to. first i need to check out how everything works and then if it is ok i buy some to start.

Just a piece of advice try not to but Smiley  Try to earn it so that you can experienced of how hard it is. Through this you can grow in this industry then if you think that your knowledge is enough then try to improve your earning strategies using those bitcoin you get or earned.


Yeah it is a good advice that you are going to try to earn for it so that you are going to know how important it is to have bitcoin at all especially when you did great effort for it. And you are going to earn just for holding it same reason like buying and just for holding it. Your investment is going to be your effort at all.

That's right in this way aside from gaining some amounts you are also learning. If you fail it is fine because you have nothing much to lose at all. You can directly stand up and try again then grow.
Yeah failure is one more step towards the success, even if you fail you should never give up and try to improve your skills and over a period of time you will surely succeed.
Failure is an important step to succes, but if you have just failures there is a problem

Failure is a step to success if you learned from it. If you take that failure as a stepping stone and not repeat the same mistakes you made. But if you failed and just ignore it and try again doing the same mistake you made, then there is something wrong with you.

We dont usually made the same mistake twice because we wouldnt do that definitely because we already know that we failed on that way. Just try  and try to different ways until you find the  best way to achieve your goals. With this mentality you would definitely succeed in the future.
9125  Other / Off-topic / Re: In 20 years, what would you like to do with your bitcoin? on: August 15, 2016, 04:06:18 AM
i think holding 100bitcoin for retirement day in next 20years is good option, im sure in future bitcoin will be famous currency and 40% offline merchand use it like visa/ master card.
better is to use most of the bitcoin to open a business in the real world. I suggest to open a business related about the technology. because with technology we can help the development of bitcoin in this world.
yeah, opening a business with bitcoin would definitely be great, i would also like to shop with bitcoins and use it daily all the time
though for that you would need a lot of bitcoins for the first time investment, i think that in 20 years i would like to use my bitcoins on daily basis
I think whatever you want to do in bitcoin 20 years to come? I hope you can gather a lot of bitcoin. because I think the cost of living will be greater in that year. and you have to collect a lot of bitcoin if you want to live comfortably

We must assume that situation would happen , as the year goes by the price our our common needs does  increase too, therefore we must  save bitcoin as much as we can  so that  in the future  we would live enough for our living. 20 years is  a long  game but  we would reach there no matter what.
9126  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to stay away from gambling? suggestions ? on: August 15, 2016, 03:02:55 AM
You can do something different to avoid gambling.  Like store your all bitcoin in xapo vault as it takes 48 hours and more one confirmation to process the withdrawal.  So, may be you will keep and make you to feel good.
Feel good? I don't think so. Gamblers usually are short-tempered. This 48 hours of waiting will just make them upset and so mad that the gambler wouldn't do it again. It might make a gambler get away from gambling for a short while but it will give him a bad experience. Also, a gambler would always find a way to gamble. So even if his money is stuck in Xapo, he can always look for a friend and ask for a loan. He knows he can give it back after 48 hours.

Thats right, even what thing that you do in order for them to stop then they would definitely find a way to gamble no matter how hard it is.  Especially to gambling addicts  if they like to gamble then   no one can stop them  as they know that he could pay him  even its 48 hours.
9127  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Steam accepting btc - will it affect the forum market? on: August 15, 2016, 02:55:18 AM
Well, i think that not many people are selling games here.
So steam accepting btc probably won't affect it so hard, it is not so popular to buy games here anyway...

even the are a few  who are in gaming here but the true things is that steam is already  accepting bitcoins as a payment and steam has a lot of gamers or users maybe  it would be a nice advertisement for bitcoin its appearance in steam.
9128  Economy / Speculation / Re: Kim Dotcom Predict 2000$ per Bitcoin ??!! on: August 15, 2016, 02:53:02 AM
I even don't know who is Kim Dotcom. Honestly I already don't know to whom to trust. Here on the forum there are hundreds of opinions about bitcoin and price for it. Someone say that it is dead and another one promise 4000$ this August already. It all is making  me confused. But I believe that bitcoin will rise a bit more soon.

Me too i dont even know him , there are lots of speculation from different person here in online world either famous or non famous personalities. All i can say that i treated them as all speculation without any certain basis since bitcoins price is unpredictable and no know what would be the exact price in upcoming years.
9129  Other / Off-topic / Re: If i give you 10 BTC what will you do? on: August 15, 2016, 02:47:49 AM
It is not really gambling. If you study and know the strategy of hyip you can know how much time it will pay you . Thats what i do

Yeah maybe, but why do you want to risk to invest in the site that will definitely scam. May I ask if you ever get a profit from HYIP. For example, after achieving ROI, because before ROI can not be regarded as a profit. Thanks

Maybe he has strategy of earn and run,  joining hyips on the first day it launched then pursuing and hoping for a roi, it would be lucky if you get roi on that site but  it doesnt work all the time since most of the hyips  dont usually last long because they cant sustain the  high returns for their members.
9130  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: the easiest way to make a profit from gambling? on: August 15, 2016, 02:43:10 AM
deposit $10k and play martiangle. start from $1. lol

but that's not my strategy.
Martingale isn't really that much of a profitable scheme, well, only to a certain amount as it would fail sooner or later.
There is really no legit way of making profit from gambling that much easily. All requires a good considerable amount of skills on a particular game. Your one skill may not work on another gambling type for easy money making. That is the reason most of gamblers do fail.
Yeah this is the reason doing martingale is actually not wise, unless u have a really big balance and do it for short time.
However your only chance to make really good profit from gambling, you need to win it in very low amount of bets ( big bets ) and stop playing after that, because winning constantly is impossible.
Winning constantly is not impossible, only highly unlikely. And highly unlikely means something like a one-quadrillionth of a percent chance, depending on how long you keep going for. On a long enough timeline the survival rates of everything (and in this case a winning streak) approaches zero, and in gambling a chance approaching 0 means that it is basically completely impossible.

The martingale method is great for small bets with a massive balance, but it starts to falter beyond that.

Martingale doesnt work in any gambling situation  and it doesnt matter how big or small your bankroll is.  Martingale may work a little bit  if youre lucky but sadly it would rape you out  with losing streaks in the end especially on dice games.

getting big result you have to take risks, if you do not want to take the risk, you may need to have a skill that can be sell and get paid a high.

I think you have to learn about the trade, the risk can be minimized if you already quite expert, you can even get greater results.

No one can do something in the best way for the first time, everyone learns from there mistakes and then they reach to the highest peak of success in that field, so if someone wants to earn a lot of money then he would surely need to risk big amounts as well for that, even if he fails sometimes but he will manage to reach his goal someday.

Yeah in any field when you are new to it, mistakes will always be a part of it, and mistakes are important as unless you don't commit a mistake how will you learn from it, take mistakes in a positive way and treat it as an learning experience.

As we all know  we learned from our mistakes and someone must treat is as an experience and mistakes are just recipe on having  a  succesful career. As you said   we  really fail at first on whatever things we are starting.

How to stay away from gambling, Ofcourse all you need is decipline in your self because if you don't have decipline in your self then you are going to be addicted once a week is enough to play gambling then if you don't have money or bitcoin just stop playing gambling because you always get nothing in your hand and you don't know that all you money you spend it on gambling

Discipline is very important if you want to stay away from gambling because without discipline you are going to keep on gambling. If you are going to treat yourself on a very dangerous situation that you are going to get addicted with it and you know what is going to happen if you are not going to stay away from it then worst things are going to happen.

THe very important things to stay away from gambling is  you must have a  strong self discipline and  a strong dedication to stay away from gambling since these things would help you and  think to another things that would make you busy and  forget about gambling.

Can I borrow 6$ from any of you guys?
This kind of post belongs be in the lending topic and not here in a thread about managing money.  Cheesy
But with all the hard nose lenders there I can't see this happening for you for even this amount. Undecided

No one would  definitely give you that amount even its only small because money is money and we require to  do a hard work to obtain it. You are right  this one should be in the lending section, and no one would surely give  that small amount because it needs a collateral for sure.
9134  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How to earn bitcoin by sig campaign? on: August 15, 2016, 02:03:04 AM
We have very many signature campaigns. Each have their own slots from Newbies to Legendary... Find out the campaign according to your rank and start posting quality posts. They will pay you the bitcoins if your posts are qualified.
Right. To earn more bitcoins you require a good written English. Each post requires minimum of two to three lines. This should be qualifying and constructive.

No one needs to write too much in a post to make it constructive or helpful for OP but you should just write your point and the point you are writing should be relevant to the topic directly or indirectly, and that would be considered constructive.

Its always good to keep short and sweet, the basic concern should be to contribute to forum by posting quality information, even a single line would be sufficient.

It doesnt require  it have to be 2 to 3 lines because   1 line sentence would be enough  as long its direct to the point and contributed to the OP's question then it should be fine rather than having a 2-3 liners but  the main thought is empty then its still useless.
9135  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How to get big satoshi instantly on: August 14, 2016, 11:03:09 AM
the fact is that gambling and trading were able to get a big amount instantly.

but if you avoid it, maybe you can look for giveaway or contest that gives great reward.

All methods mention by you will need great level of luck, as gambling is very risky and there is least chances of winning, but I would prefer to go with trader as its bit safer in compare to gambling.

Gambling is totally dependent on luck while trading requires a lot of skills and knowledge from the trader, in gambling it does not matter if how big your capital is, you will still lose but in trading the bigger your capital is the more profits you can earn with it.

Trading is always good to earn bitcoins fast, and it involves less risk in compare to gambling as you said you can make profits from gambling only if luck favors you on that particular day.
Yeah right trading is more less risk and you can make a lots of profit instantly.. but honestly i recommend to go in safe way that you dont need to invest or to have a capital to make a profit instantly.. better to have good skills that you can offer you here in our forum this is the best to choose if you dont have money to invest or to have capital for trading.

Yeah don't jump directly into trading hoping to make big profits in a single day, best thing is to start earning coins from various sources and save those earnings for the future.

Dont rush up to things which are complicated for a newbie in bitcoin world because you would definitely screwed up in trading because you dont have any idea of it. If you have skills then you can go to services section and find there. YOu would gain huge amount if you are good enough or highly skilled.
9136  Economy / Economics / Re: How to save money. on: August 14, 2016, 10:55:23 AM
You can save money by creating different portfolios of investments. We have to divide in ratio proportions how much we'd want to save and in what kind of investment scheme. The schemes could vary from Fixed/Recurring deposits with banks, trading in stock markets, mutual funds, Public provident funds and various other methods.
In savings you will not think of investment first, let us say you only receive a little amount of salary, the question is are you still gonna save? The answer is absolutely yes, you need to save as that is compulsory and that would take care of your future in case there are emergencies that would require you to spend money.

Saving is actually good for the people who are not rich and are not earning a lot of money every month or everyday because if someone earns a lot he does not need to save anything because he will always have extra money, but the ones who earn a little that can only run their house for the day then they should just a small percent of it.
Well for me i just save bitcoins for my future to use it in my own business or to buy an house and lot this is just my dream for my future and for my family..  saving is a good thing for those dreaming for their future.. if you spend a lot of money or bitcoin for nothing and you dont saving you will never be rich even you are making a lot of money.

Saving is really important for future, in fact even if you are earning millions but if you are not saving then its useless, as you never know what future holds for you.

If you want to save for the future, I'd recommend you to do it in Gold. The price will only keep rising year after year. People will be looking for Gold soon, as it's the only one which can be used as a currency in case of a financial collapse.
Investing in gold requires a good amount of capital and you can only invest in that if you are already rich. Majority of the people here are just starting to have there investment because they are encourage by the people who got a successful journey with investing in bitcoin.

Agree, gold investments need a huge amount or capital and  only rich could definitely do that because average person couldnt do that. Thats right most of the people here  are just starting to their investment of bitcoin because they see the big potential of bitcoin in the future.
9137  Other / Off-topic / Re: du you spend coins on real life. on: August 14, 2016, 10:50:32 AM
since i am indian and in india there is no practical way to spent btc  . but i am using btc to spent at purse.io to purchase some gift card and purchase items .
I think for the delivery of goods from abroad will require quite a long time? of course we can not use it in everyday life?
I really want to buy goods instantly and pay for it with bitcoin. and may occasionally buy at online shop

As of now  that is commonly happening since bitcoin couldnt spend  in all countries into physical stores or some merchants. Some may exchange it to fiat so that they could buy goods  and other necessities and wants. As we see that bitcoin has a bright future maybe it would be possible to buy goods directly by using bitcoin itself.
9138  Other / Off-topic / Re: When is it useful to borrow bitcoin? on: August 14, 2016, 10:47:20 AM
I think the right moment to borrow bitcoin is, if we are in need of money for unexpected needs such as illness. Or purchase goods online, but the goods are really needed and can not be postponed to buy it. for investment I prefer to use my own money

Yeah, that's right, we should borrow money on those emergencies, and purchasing goods that are needed to earn, or if it is part of our workhorse such as memory module of your computer, but I think it is also good to borrow money if we are going into investment, but just make sure that you know the investment very well and the investment has a good record and you know you could pay the money on time and with interest aside from your profit..  Wink

Yes it would be useful to borrow if you use it in something that is really urgent or use it in an investment that you can generate money from and would provide you potential profit . I've read somewhere that using other people's money to generate your own money is one of the qualities of a good investor but being sure that he can repay the money he borrows so that it would be a win-win situation.

If you intend to borrow to someone so that you would have a fund on investing on things but  remember you must be  wise enough to put in a right investment so that  its a win-win situation because if you  put it on a wrong place  then you would  suffer big loss which is a really bad thing.
9139  Other / Off-topic / Re: If i give you 10 BTC what will you do? on: August 14, 2016, 10:45:06 AM
I want ask anyone if i give you 10 Btc what will you do. because i want investment but i have no any good idea to invest it (except gambling) but i don't like dambling.So i want ask you viewS.

Unfortunately, there aren't many places where we can invest our bitcoins but we can try trading them in altcoins and vise versa but this task requires lots of time, stress and we need to be very patient.
I try as much as possible to not spend them in unnecessary things and not to cashout, was thinking to spend on cloud mining but that does not worth.


Spending your bitcoin  in cloudmining sites would be a bad idea because most of the cloudmining sites out there turns out to scam in the long run which is a really waste of your money. Trading would be a good investment but it still requires effort and observation and you must be  aware of those sh*t coins  out there.
9140  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To Gamble or To Invest? on: August 14, 2016, 10:42:51 AM
Many would say that investment is a much better option than gambling but i would go for gambling because in gambling i am not depending on any third party for the profit or the result to come.Also return in gambling is much quicker,we get to know whether we won or lost in some time where as in investment alot of patience is required.

 But in gambling, the odds is always against you. And you cannot rely on it to give a steady profit. There are more chances that your money will turn to zero than it winning. But in investing, you can manage all the risk. Investing in a really good company will give you a steady income.

How can you believe that thing, if you keep on playing it I am sure it will against you and most probably you will lose it but if you only play once or may be couple of times, there is no way you could lose it. There is no way you can know particular company will give you steady income, some trustworthy company that give you stable income have possible or chance to scam you too. There is no guarantee you will earn in every way except working but still I prefer to do both rather than to choose each one of them
I agree with you. There is nothing called safe and sound in the world of gambling. You may win once or twice but the chance of winning is very low and when you do, you’ll easily be addicted to it and your money will keep losing if you don’t control yourself.

On the other hand, you can’t 100% sure that some investing sites won’t scam you and don’t be fooled into those sites that promise will give you way more that you can imagine, it’s totally a scam, so it’s not a steady income with investment.

Safe way or  good techniques in gambling doesnt exist at all even others  always claim that they have strategies to gain profits in gambling. Thats true,  chances of lossing are higher than the chances  of winning and thats the reality in gambling that why there are many gambler out there suffers too much loss.
