921  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Which Coins are a great LONG-TERM investment ???? on: July 21, 2018, 11:31:14 AM
ETH is next to bitcoin and I see great potential in it in the coming years though bitcoin has still a great role in altcoin price in the market. There are still other altcoins and it is up to you which of those will you choose after your thorough research. This is a risky matket and what you need is patience and knowledge in order to survive.

My favorite after bitcoin is also ETH because of following reasons :

1) ETH is getting very popular as a payment medium.

2) ETH transfers are faster.

3) There are even less fees involved with ETH transfers.

No need to complain about cryptography, everyone should understand that this is a big risk that can lead you to poverty and wealth. It's not vain to say (who does not risk that does not drink champagne).

If one takes following precautions, he can avoid such a situation:

1) Investing only the money that one can afford to loose. If you are investing all your savings in crypto or anything volatile like it, you are inviting trouble.

2) Doing proper research before choosing to invest in a coin. If you just go for a new coin in hope of higher returns, it can result in huge loss. For beginners, I will suggest to invest only in bitcoins and ETH and that also with small amount of money.

923  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin going towards the dark on: July 16, 2018, 04:36:09 PM
Bitcoin prices are constantly decreasing.Its price has increased slightly a few days ago, but now it has decreased again.So, the bitcoin will be completely destroyed? If the predictions of different researchers will be wrong then..
What is the reason for lowering the price of Bitcoin?

It is not completely destroyed. Here are some reasons why price is decreasing:

1) A lot of people have invested at $19000 or above and thus they are waiting to recover. They are not going to buy more as there money is already stuck.

2) Now there is no media coverage also regarding the price levels of bitcoins.

My favorite game is cricket,
Because when a player hits the sixes, all the stadiums are happy

This thread is in gambling section and thus we are looking for replies related to gambling related games.

Now coming back to OP, I have a love for card games.I started with card games only and lost a lot of money on it. Note that I have never played card games offline or the default card game provided in computer.
925  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket match prediction discussions on: July 16, 2018, 03:55:18 PM
Yes it has been an interesting series so far, I'm actually more interested in the test series between these two teams to mainly see how India goes. If they perform well in the test series against England then that will give the Indian team great confidence heading into the Australia test series later this year as the pitches are very similar in Australia. Could we see India finally win a test series in Australia? I think the Australian test series will be the most anticipated series in a long time with what has happened to Australia earlier this year and that India haven't won a test series in Australia.

Australian team is doing very currently mainly because they have a bad team now. They were drafted by England by 5-0 recently and the series was completely one sided.

I think India will defeat them easily even if they perform bad in England. But with current team, there is no way that England is going to win the matches without any competition just like they did with Australia.

You can get free tips on various sites, there are some dedicated for this purpose. One advice I have to give you is to only give a fixed time to this activity per day or week so that you do not get addicted with it.

Also, since you are learning try to participate in free or small tournaments only in the begging. Also, do a good research about the site before giving it a try for gambling.

927  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FIFA WORLD CUP 2018? on: July 16, 2018, 03:45:01 PM
So at least in the final there were no upsets. But Croatia should be proud about their efforts. After all, 100% of the team was ethnic Croat and other indigenous, when compared to the French national team which was composed of mostly African and Arab imports.

I was watching a movie in the hall when I heard a guy using Google search (though voice) about Croatia. That place was not mentioned in the movie and thus I thought why was he searching for it. Now when I came to home, I learnt they are doing so good in Football.

I do not follow much of football but what they have done is really recommendable.

If they do not do nay twist, it should be Jon Snow.

Now let us talk about some other characters :

1) Very less chances that Cercei will even survive this season. She will be killed by Arya or while giving birth to last child.

2) Varys also has very less chance as that Lady predicted that she will die on a foreign land.

929  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How Are You Tracking Your Crypto Investments? on: July 16, 2018, 12:25:58 PM
I do not use any external application for tracking my crypto investments. I rarely sell any coin and whenever I sell, I sell in profit only.

If I have to see past trades or price at time of purchase, all that is recorded in the exchange I am using.
930  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 10 Real places where you can spend your Bitcoins today on: July 16, 2018, 12:20:47 PM
I regularly use it to buy online services from a reputed website that earlier accepted only cards.
But now I would like to use it at one of bitcoin ATMs outside my country as there is none in my country. I will do it on my next international trip.
931  Economy / Economics / Re: Why lot of countries do not allow to use Crpto? on: July 16, 2018, 11:58:40 AM
I think the reasons will be different from case to case but one of the main reasons is that government leaders are thinking that bitcoin and cryptocurrency alllowance will be harming for the economy of countries.

Harming the economy ? It is actually good for economies, it is just that they are not ready to give it some thought. For instance, governments can increase their revenue in form of taxes as people earn good money with crypto.

They can use that increased revenue as budget for other welfare schemes.

932  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How useful is bounty programs to the overall success of icos? on: July 16, 2018, 11:33:00 AM
Why did you even ask if it's impacting negatively to the ICO. ICO company's will never offer to pay group of people that will negatively impact the project.  It is just and clear that bounty program was created in order to increase the number of people who will know about the project. Bounty campaigns was created to build leads. Leads that believe in the company's project.

In some cases, it has impacted negatively also. There was a project which was based on crypto arbitrage and it decided to have a signature campaign here on the forum. After, the signature campaign was posted, it came into limelight and some members here did some analysis of the service offered by them.

Solid proofs were given be members on how it is a scam project and now all that ranks on Google. So it was a bad move by them.
933  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why is Bill Gate against investing into bitcoin? on: July 16, 2018, 11:30:21 AM
If I had to choose an advice from Bill gates and Warren Buffet, I will choose it from the former. Even if it is an investment advice, I will trust Bill Gates only as he has so much experience of the tech. He has spoken in favor of blockchain also which is a good. He is mainly concerned regarding the anonymous nature of bitcoins which is indeed a valid concern. A person like him will evaluate an investment from all angles like future legal problems.
934  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To quit gambling is to quit yourself on: July 16, 2018, 11:25:48 AM
not just gambling in any form when it becomes an addiction it will be difficult utuk out because it is a psychiatric problem, then utuk can stop any indeed must have a strong belief of yourself and must be supported by the nearest family, the process will not be briefly but with a strong determination can definitely get out of the circle of addiction.

Think of the worse situation that can happen after gambling addiction. Your bank balance will become zero once day, you may take loans from friends to fulfill your urges and then the number of friends will also keep reducing. Finally, one day it will get out of hand and eventually , you will realize the mistakes.

I have gone though all of this. I want other to learn without suffering but I know that will happen rarely.
935  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What currencies do you gamble with? on: July 16, 2018, 11:19:58 AM
I have gambled only with bitcoins. These days I have all the other solid alt coins like ETH and litecoin but I seldom play. Most of the games I play are free tournaments on a card games websites. I do not even have time to cover all their free tournaments, so playing after spending money is out of question for now.
936  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why gambling is portrayed negatively almost everywhere? on: July 16, 2018, 11:17:57 AM
Most of the people lost their lives because of gambling (like alcohol), hence its portrayed negative. One can gambling at times. But gambling should not be a regular activity. One should never get addicted towards it...

Actually, we do not see the bright side  to this. If you read he responses in this thread, most of the people had overcome their addiction and are doing good in their life now. So loss due to gambling actually acted as a driving force for them. Perception of people are changing towards a lot of things, something considered very bad in earlier times is easily accepted by majority now.
937  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Benefits of gambling? Yes - it exists! on: July 16, 2018, 11:12:20 AM
Well for those who have lots of money it has benefits, not all kinds/levels of people have the same point of view in life. Some people gamble for leisure, fun and forget the outside world. While others gamble to have money that sometimes they become stress in thinking how they will return all the money they spent but of course in gambling if there is a loser it has a winner. The benefits of the winner is it makes them feel happy, alive and  increases their money.

Gambling is not that bad. It depends on people on how they will gonna take the gambling.

Very right points in support of gambling and I agree with most of it.

For those, who are not addicted and play it in control, there are benefits only. Even if they loose money, they get all the fun and thrill while playing. All of us spend money on entertainment like for movies and all even after knowing that the money spent is not going to come back.
938  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you find Success in Gambling? on: July 16, 2018, 11:09:38 AM
The real fact is no one can be successful in the gambling i long run so we need to remember gambling is not for money making just to try our luck to make some money.I too find some money on gambling but when I calculate my earnings and the lost amount in gambling then the lost amount is more. Lips sealed So I am not successful in gambling.

Only the gambling site owner is successful irrespective of who wins or looses the game. However, if a player is able to control his urges to gamble, he is also no less than a winner in my opinion.

I am not against gambling if it is done in control. Because now it has transformed into an industry and many people are dependent on it as a source of living as well.
939  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Addiction Stories! on: July 16, 2018, 11:07:35 AM
i started betting in freebitcoin now it been 3 years and still nothing win , so i don't know when i stop and if i have to stop or not

We all have faced similar issues and here are some suggestions :

1) What is your schedule other than gambling ? You should try to keep yourself as much busy as you can. I was addicted to gambling for quite some time and I ignored everything else that time. Now I have so much work, I have completely forgot about those websites.

2) Most people lear after goign through the suffering. You have the chance to learn from mistakes of others.
940  Other / Archival / Re: Have you ever won a Jackpot? on: July 16, 2018, 10:59:58 AM
No, I have not ever won a jackpot and now that I play so less that I do not think that I will even win one.

There is such huge competition for this that you need a lot of luck to win these. Fortunately for me, I have got some serious working methods to make money online and it is there that most of my time is devoted.
