For me yes. It's better to buy a house when the price of bitcoin goes up very high, so when the price of bitcoin going down, your bitcoin will stay on that price. Property in my country is really worthy, i mean every year the price is always increase. That's why you should buy a house and it's a good investment too.

Don't doubt that time is the best time to buy house with your bitcoins because if you are that bitcoin holder that you hold a lot of it.

For sure you are going to have higher profit when the price of bitcoin increases and just take the advantage of selling them instead.

So that you cannot just buy only house but also some other properties that are good for investment.
9162  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you use analysis when play gambling? on: January 21, 2017, 02:25:59 PM
analysis is a must-do when gambling to soccer
Agree, gambling analysis is used to winning. I think not only soccer but all kinds of sports gambling that others such motogp, f1, ufc, boxing, nba, and so on.

Analysis is really applicable for different sports betting and that is covering yeah, all of it. And also if you are going to play some games that are requiring mind.

Then you don't have choice but to use your head and do some analysis in able to win that game just like with poker games.

This is more of an advantage to all of us, if you are going to do it.

It's not that bad to gamble unless you are going to moderate it.

Almost everyone has a gambling problem, either they are addicted or not however alot of people keep on wanting to gamble when they have spare time or some money to spend . It is not bad of course however there is a risk in it that people might be addicted so dont even think that anyone could control their gambling habit
You make it sound as if everyone that gamble has some kind of gambling problem and that is not true, we can gamble responsibly without becoming addicted, in fact most people that gamble are able to control themselves, those that are addicted to gambling are just a minority.
Yes let's not generalize that most of the gamblers does have problem at all. There are gamblers who manage to gambler freely, because they have enough to gamble and it is not affecting their families with their habit or addiction. It just depends on the gambler on how he can take things very light and by setting priorities.
I am that person, never had a problem this days. When I started gambling, it's a normal thing that I was addicted, but I was able to fight that addiction and now I am a more matured gambler as experience teaches me how to be. Enjoying is the key since gambling is an entertainment, if ever you have a problem then you must solve that early, otherwise you will suffer that longer and you will live a very stressful life.
This is a nice story and lesson for all of us, even if for some reason you cannot control your gambling you can always overcome it through sheer willpower and with the help of your family and friends.

So that's the solution for most of the gambling problems that most of us are experiencing. We just need to be mature and we know on how to control it.

Good thing that there are people who are already in the learning process after experiencing some bad things with gambling.

And he is right, that as long as it is still early we must be able to do something and solve it.

As they say that experience is our greatest teacher. We won't learn until we make a mistake. And good for you as a gambler that you already overcome your mistakes from gambling and improve your skill from it. I wish most gamblers are like you. So they won't lose much money when they can control themselves from gambling. But i think having that kind of discipline requires some practice and self-control where only few people are given that discipline.

Actually it is really hard to overcome this type of problem with gambling as most of the people aren't that capable of controlling it.

Yes, discipline is going to be the answer for any gambling problem because you know what your doing and you know what is the appropriate solution for it.

Out of that price and that is why many of the people who are into bitcoin are having good time with bitcoins unstable price.

Because there are a lot of opportunity that we can take advantage for it, just like buying for lower price and do nothing with their coins.

They just need to store it somewhere and get back on it again and sell it on higher price.

Unless you are a trader then you wont really need to know the price of bitcoin. Just keep it save and treat it as a worthless junk , in few more years you might be surprised to see the price. Either that you will be a rich new guy or that you are going to have a worthless coin in your wallet

Even you are not a trader or you are just a normal bitcoiner still price does matters and just like what you have said.

We are just going to save it and treat it as not really nothing but a good investment because we are just going to hold it and wait for the price increase.

And by doing that, we already have an investment out of it.
9165  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To Gamble or To Invest? on: January 21, 2017, 01:23:57 PM
I don't know why they are people who are preferring to choose gambling rather than investing and their reason are almost the same and they keeps on saying that it can give them fast money which is literally not a good way of earning. Unlike with investing, slowly but surely.

People dont want to wait and that is why people always choose gambling over investing. Some people's mistake are that they think of gambling of aj easy way to earn money that is why people always gamble to get more money. I do gamble for money however I dont think of it as a source of my main income

Those people that are not patient with investing then they are the ones who are mostly falling in a scam or they are making their investments ruin for not waiting patiently. Many of the people stands with that belief that they are not making gambling as source of their main income but the fact is that they are still making it as another source.
- Exactly, invest suitable only for the patient and really want to make money
- Gambling is for lazy people, want to make money fast,  just want to rely on luck
- Before choosing gamble and invest, we need to identified, we want to make money or entertainment

Not really, gambling is not really for lazy people. It depends on those gamblers on how they are going to take gambling seriously.

Because there are investors who are also gambling for profit but they know their limitations and chances of winning, so if they lose for a while.

They are not going to keep on gambling and will just take rest for the whole day. Because there are also some that are just treating gambling for fun and focusing more with investing.
9166  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to play gambling in a smart way? on: January 20, 2017, 02:23:52 AM

And that is going to make us smart in gambling if we are able to control our greediness or should I say emotion when gambling.


Controlling yourself is "smart" ? thats very weird, everyone could control their gambling habit. If you wish to control your gambling habit or greediness then perhaps you should not be gambling that would be the smarter way to end this all thing. If you wish to gamble in the smart way then just go with the flow and invest into a gambling site

It is smart to have control nowadays. Some were just go in the flow that they used up all their investment and money just in gambling , they just continue to gambling without setting rules on how they can manipulate their game. By providing set of amounts to be played on that particular moment and budgeting the money.  Maybe that's their point on why should be smart. Though to be able really to be smart is like you said not getting involved on it ever.

I don't know if really don't believe that controlling yourself is smart. There are a lot of gamblers that are even have hard time on controlling themselves.

Because they keep on gambling again and they are being brought by their own feeling so if you don't think that controlling ourselves is not smart or very weird.

Maybe he still doesn't experience that feeling yet.

It is the only thing that matters to all the traders, speculators, business, hedgers etc. It depends upon the price at which they buy/sell.
Yeah it does matter. thats why many users investing in btc because of the unstable price which give them the opportunity to earn. i think it became popular also because of it.

Out of that price and that is why many of the people who are into bitcoin are having good time with bitcoins unstable price.

Because there are a lot of opportunity that we can take advantage for it, just like buying for lower price and do nothing with their coins.

They just need to store it somewhere and get back on it again and sell it on higher price.
9168  Economy / Economics / Re: How many Bitcoin do you have saved? on: January 20, 2017, 01:38:47 AM
Just recently got into BTC; I have 2.5 saved up.
Plan on taking 25% of each of my paychecks and accumulating and seeing what will happen in 2017 or later in the year.

Thoughts? Ideas? Speculation? Advice? Tips?

 Huh
I have a similar amount, but I am considering increasing my Bitcoin holdings. I know that Bitcoin will not make anyone rich overnight, but it seems to be a promising investment for years to come. I think even this year we may see significant changes in the market, as there are many investors on the scene, and the market is not small as it was a few years ago.

Actually good thing that you do already have save that amount of bitcoin guys. That is my plan too to make my bitcoin holdings higher.

But since there are a lot of expenses that I need to focus and use my bitcoins for. I need to convert my bitcoins into fiat.

I only have some few amount of bitcoins but I'm not losing hope that I am able to save a lot in the future.

9170  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling loses and wins on: January 20, 2017, 12:53:01 AM
When i first got into bitcoin gambling 2 or so years ago i started playin poker freerolls and built up about a 300 chip stack. Over the next year through gambling i cashed out about $1000. I have lost .05 here and .1 there but i would say im still way up on btc.
Because that they bitcoin was very cheap also i always played too where the real thrill there was when you can get profit on that gambling. 1000$ is really bog amounth tho  dont mind your lost as long as we are winning on the next day

If I was able to know bitcoin way back 2 years ago then I'm pretty sure that I am going to do the same thing with you, get some free rolls and giveaways.

And of course I will going to make some funds, I'll buy bitcoin since it was cheaper way back then. So whenever I'm going to lose with those freebies.

I have my own pocket money to take the chance to win some games.
9171  Economy / Gambling / Re: BITDICE CASINO - 110BTC MAX WIN, MOST ADVANCED, SECURE, PACESETTER CASINO. on: January 20, 2017, 12:28:34 AM
I see around 40 people online when i log.
Is there any provision to hide our online status because by seeing the jackpot amount and frequency of dice rolls, I guess many gamblers would have opted not to show their online status. Is there any personal settings available for this, I checked twice still I am not sure about where and how to do.
I guess you are asking what we are having in this forum. But in gambling site what would be the advantages by hiding our online status. I have not seen any gambling sites with this kind of features.

Still, for security purposes Alex would have incorporated any new thing, lets wait for others (pro gamblers/reviewers) to comment on this.
Everytime I logged in I see 28 people online at most which is a big improvement from 12 people online. Which means BitDice's signature campaign os working for their site.  Also seeing that it has reach 40 people online makes me more happy as we are helping BitDice to be recognize by more people.

The advantage of hiding our online status is that no one will know that you are gambling by that time, that's the only thing I know for hiding your status.

That's good to know that it's players are increasing and it's kind of working. I'm thinking that the wagering contest is also the one who is responsible for it.
9172  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why some people prefer Bitcoin over fiat ? on: January 19, 2017, 03:48:15 PM
Because bitcoin gives the user full freedom of his own money and and also it gives the user an opportunity to mak free money that us by trading and also day by day is rate is growing up thus increasing in conversation rate.

Yes that's why many of us prefer to use and choose bitcoin because there are no tax for each of our transactions that we are going to make.

And if there are fees, that are all affordable and it is only cents for many of us. That's why many likes to transact with bitcoin.

Together with its fast response and confirmation as long as you are going to pay the miners fee.
9173  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling should be considered as a Sickness!! on: January 19, 2017, 03:27:23 PM
Gambling is not a sickness and the most people are addicted to it and that have to change because they have to realize that gambling is all wasted money so that is really bad.
But nobody will know what is going to happen with gambling but losing is a high chance.

Gambling is a "sickness" but not literally a sickness, it is just a metaphor, pertaining that gambling is not that easy to quit once you get addicted to it because of the bitcoin or fiat that you have already lost to it and the mind set that you can win it back if you will keep on doing gambling.

I'm pretty sure that it is a literal sickness where when it gets viral it's hard to cure. That's a fact in gambling, when a gambler gets addicted.

His mind is already focused with winning all the time and if he is not going to gamble that is not going to satisfy him.

But unlike other viral sicknesses, this can be cured depending on how the gambler whats to be cured.
9174  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To Gamble or To Invest? on: January 19, 2017, 03:03:06 PM
easiest way to gamble in btc was find sites that are legitimately paying their costumer, i suggest that you gamble on dice. it is hussle free and pure luck is needed. there is a pilot mode on that gambling where you can just sit and watch your bitcoin win or lose. it depends on your luck. and for the investment im not yet familiarized with investments, but dont be baited for those doublers. as many of them is a scam. better ask first before investing on some sites.

Actually there are a lot of legit sites that are willing to pay its gamblers and it just depends on how you are satisfy with them and if you want to continue gambling with them.

But I would suggest that don't gamble too much and it's better if you are going to focus yourself and bitcoins with investing.

Because it is more possible that you can make your bitcoins grow with them and the risk is lesser.
9175  Economy / Economics / Re: Which one is good, trading or investing? on: January 19, 2017, 02:40:00 PM
Both are good depending on the resources and time  you have for research but for me investing is better because it fits my skill sets because i tend to over trade attimes

Surely both are good because it is just the same. Trading is a form of investing. And most of us does have this type of investment.

Because it is one of the legit way of earning with bitcoin and you just need to do the same with bitcoin, you'll just buy and sell.

And after buying those alt coins that you like, you just need to wait for them to increase and that's the time when you can get profit, from selling it.
9176  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to play gambling in a smart way? on: January 19, 2017, 01:42:34 PM
I think smart way is bet small.Don't be too greedy and always remember that gambling can't make you rich.We all know gambling is very dangerous and it can make anyone empty hand so by betting small amount you won't lose your all money.Also doing only sports betting is a smart way cause you can be profited from that.

Focusing on profit will make us greedy and yes we shouldn't avoid that type of attitude when we gamble because that is going to lead us losing in the end. Together betting small amount is a good but smart way depending on your capability. Even you are going to bet high amount but you know what you are doing and you afford to lose it.

it is not good for us to only focussing on profit, we need to learn about the risk too because every time we are playing gambling, we can not always win and our luck is not always beside with us. smart way for me is when i can spend a little amount and then i can win in several times, then i quit as soon as possible, this is what i am thinking and what i am doing so far.
- That is just temporary. When we lose too much, we will not be able to control
- We will raising the higher and higher bets, and we will lose
- We were too greedy and impatient, I think smart way is control control and control when play gambling


Human greediness is just a normal personality for all of us and yes control will be the smartest thing that we need to do for it.

But the question is, how we are going to control our greediness? You need to practice something that is going to make you not that greedy.

So, if you ever won some amount maybe 0.005-0.01 BTC for this day, I guess that's already enough. Try to set a limit or an amount which is going to satisfy you.
Well, if you practice it you will really overcome your problem. Human are greedy but it can be controlled, hence we should try to do things to make it possible, the moment we are in gambling and we have good control then it could give us a chance to win and limit our loses.

And that is going to make us smart in gambling if we are able to control our greediness or should I say emotion when gambling.

Because that is the one that triggers us to keep on gambling especially when we already won big amount.

Also we need to have sometimes dependable to our gut feel because it can be helpful, but only 'sometimes'.

What are the things to do to succeed in trade? What are you doing to make your business bigger?
How can we make more money?

these are 3 different questions you are asking here and all of them are general question that needs to be broken down to specifics.
- for trading you need to read a lot and gain experience to know how to analyze the charts and the news
- a bigger business needs more money, you can get investors, take a loan, take a friend to share the business with,... and so many more depending on what business you are talking about
- work harder and wiser Cheesy
The bold part is very important, whatever we do as long as we work wiser and harder, it will always generate good results. If we say smart, focus on income generating activities where you can use your skills and passion, it will help you do it better and the success would come easy for you.

Yeah that's the only way to get and make some more money whether you are going to do it with bitcoin or in your real life.

Having a real job is good to have stable money but having some other ways of earning is going to make you more money and that's on how you are going to be wise.

Opening a small enterprise is going to be good to make money while having some bitcoin related business.

Guys sorry for this question above but I would like to ask here that

What is the difference of Trading to Investing?

though I know that I can search it in google but I want an answer from those people who have already experienced this two.
Thank you.

I hope you can help me in my confusion..


Actually trading is a type of investment. Where you are going to buy and sell alt coins that you think that has potential to pump in future.

And you will buy it at lower price and you'll get profit from selling it at higher price. Investing is simply putting a capital into something that you think is gonna be profitable for you.

There are many types of investment.
9180  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: January 17, 2017, 12:55:54 PM

Gambling produce happiness hormones like drugs or sex or sport. But only a small percentage get addicted and this not because of gambling itself, but because of their personality I think (strong / soft).

I don't think that gambling produces only small percentage to make someone addicted with it. Personality is just a second thing of why gambling is addictive.

Gambling is addicting itself and that's because of those hormones that produces it as you had said it, like how drug and sex is addictive.

And also because it give us chance to win some good amount is another factor.

When you win in gambling there is a power feeling, the gambler fell powerful to earn lots of money fast and without effort. Also, during the game the gambler start thinking what he will buy with the money, imagining many wealth wonderful things with the possibility to don't need to work more during the life if the gambler wins a really big amount of money, the biggest prize.

Yes that's what we are feeling when we are experiencing winning. And it makes us more brave enough to keep on gambling again.

Because we know that we can simply win again, but we are not noticing that we are becoming addicted with it.

And most of the time, we just win in the beginning and lose a lot in the long run.
