921  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is betting a good choice for a newbie? on: June 07, 2017, 11:24:05 AM
Its never a good choice for a newbie to get into the gambling but most of the newbies will go for gambling at initial stage to multiply their bitcoins in a quick time and will surely end up loosing everything and I think after that they will stop gambling.

i am agree with you, no matter if that person is newbie or not, as long as he don't know anything in betting, my suggestion is better stay away from betting sites and don't trying to played the gambling. i think betting is only for person that already know about betting and know how to played with good so he can make good decision in the games.
But I believe newbies must try gambling because life if given to use just once and living it with fear is not something I would approve. Still gambling is quite famous that everyone looses in long term but some people suggest to gamble with calculated risk against house edge. There is nothing to be calculated with house edge, just see the multiplier and odds and you can determine it.

Losses at last are unavoidable, but you can enjoy your life. Newbies must accept the risks before going for gambling.

See to gamble we don't have any restriction anyone can play, and online gambling even kids also play because there is no age restriction for online gambling. But one thing we must need to play gambling. That is money, and please don't use your personal money to gamble you may be experienced gambler or newbie no matter. Gambling treats everyone equally.
922  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does experience matter in gambling? on: June 07, 2017, 11:18:47 AM
I think experience will matter if you are gambling on sports as based on your experience you can judge what will be the end result and depending on that you can adjust your bets which can go in your favor in the end.
If it's a game of luck your experience is not necessary anymore in order to win, you need experience to gamble with
limit and to be able to manage your emotion, that's gambling you lose most of the time so you need to limit.

for me, no matter what the game is, experience still necessary because with experience, we can decide what is our step for next movement or we can decide what kind of games that we have a chance to win based of our experience. and after we have experience, we can easily make decision about what we want to do in gambling.
You understand correctly what is experience in gambling, normally what people thin EXP means if we have a number of experience we will win all bets and our all guessing will be right. Nope, it is the wrong experience means we will get control on our betting and we will control our bankroll without losing all money.
923  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Giving up gambling is not easy on: June 07, 2017, 11:14:45 AM
You need to surround yourself with other things to do. Don't give yourself time to think about gambling and you'll find yourself in a much better place.
Yes, external help from our family members/friends will definitely help us not to think about gambling in more frequent occurrence. When we are giving some big time gap for our gambling activities, we can be sure that giving up gambling will become easier. Only the gamblers who are frequenting to gambling are getting addiction and finding giving up gambling is not easy.
If we have self control and know money value, we don't need anyone help to stop gambling. If we think about our future, we only stop gambling. Becasue we will get to know if we continue our future will spoil. But those who don't know money value and don't have any idea they will addict this gambling quickly and later they will suffer a lot to stop gambling.
924  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling. Is It Wrong? on: June 07, 2017, 11:08:06 AM
For entrepreneurs in gambling industry, maybe not. But for me, gambling is wrong because i am never willing to lose money i earned with hard work, risked in fun activity but potentially lose money. Casino owners, investors or gamblers all have the same goal is making a profit.
Its not wrong in that case you only dont want to risk your money or to spend just to have fun as there are many things to do with fun instead of playing gambling. It is totally made for them to earn money not for us ,people only try their luck and their best stratedgy to win even sometimes it is not applicable and nothing to do with to win.

Well it only became wrong if you waste the money you have for your family just for betting for fun games just for non sense investments. Playing in a gambling activity should be within your control everytime so that you will be able to make it up for a good reason of fun games and not lossing a lot of your bets. So make it a righteous activity even though gambling reputation becames low due to irresponsible gambling players.

Everyone mindset is not same, 1st people start gambling to have just fun, but later onwards the gambling loss will make them become addicted gambler, once they addicted gambling, of course, they will start to use hard work money to play gambling. So my suggestion is if you don't have self controlling capacity then best don't enter this gambling world. Gambling is not wrong, but people are doing this wrong.
925  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket match prediction discussions on: June 06, 2017, 04:42:00 PM
England just made a good total of 310 runs and i do suspect this will be another rain affected match and i think DL method will be enforced in this match too and New Zealand have some power hitters and if the target is reduced then i give my chances on New Zealand but if they are to chase 310 then England will win the match.
After a long time, Butler has shown his batting, as a result English cricket team scored a good total, this run can be chase able if Williamson and guptil will play their natural batting, but one thing must consider that, England has a good bowling side, not only that but also they are playing at their familiar condition and the fans...
So, any team can be the winner....
311 runs are not a big score, and New Zealand has very good batting lineup. The captain is in good form if he stands for a long time then NZ has a chance to win this game. Yes again the rain interpreted this match also, and this tournament is not interested because of rain. It is a very big tournament, but there is no interest. And ICC made a new rule that they will announce the winner in D/L method only 2 teams must play 20 overs. Becasue of this rule yesterday Aus shared points with Bangladesh, or else it was an easy win to Aus.

Still it is too early to predict a winner, I'll go with New Zealand because they need a win and the competition will get spicy.
The wind is fast so I don't think there will be rain again. Let's hope they'll maintain a run rate n win this one.

The match is running New Zeland is playing well after losing Luke Ronchi duck, Kane Williamson played amazing innings, and just now he got out for 87 runs he missed one more century in this tournament. The match looks interesting now NZ needs 150 runs from 19 overs 7 wickets is there. I think England will win this match.
926  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Favorite type of gambling? on: May 24, 2017, 07:17:31 PM
My favorite type of gambling is sports betting and that also on cricket as in it you have an opportunity to make profits in every single game only if you know how to adjust your bets in smart way.
Yes, i also love sports betting because this is a gambling that does not rely too much on luck, it depends on our experience and ability to analyze. Many people often say gambling is totally dependent on luck but I think luck is not enough, it's just part of winning, the rest depends on our skills, only skills combined with luck will help us to have long-term profit. And sports gambling is where we can use both skills and luck, is where I feel I am not controlled by fate
Actually, what people said it is right, in gambling luck will decide our result. You play sports betting or slot games without luck you can not win the single bet. Sports betting need skills to place a bet but now most of the games are ending with unexpected results, so here also luck is deciding our results. I believe both luck and skill we need to make money in gambling.
927  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I looked for three days, $120? on: May 24, 2017, 07:13:24 PM
I am little bit confuse you said you have won $120 in a 3 days and also i know this site is scam, than have you withdraw you money?
How can you win if this site is doing scamming?
But if you win in real than it is cool and also you are lucky one who win in a scam gambling site.
Perhaps the earnings of this person is precisely to advertise this site. If someone attracts people to a fraudulent website, then it's probably well paid
Did he provide any proof for his winning? I checked there is no proof. So as you said it's right he just promoting that site that's it. And now we don't need to play gambling to make $120 for 3 days. Just hold your coins 3 days in your wallet the BTC price will increase and you will make more than this profit.
928  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket match prediction discussions on: May 24, 2017, 07:10:13 PM
England vs. South Africa 1st ODI match, Eng batted first and made good score 339 runs with the loss of 6 wickets. Captain Morgan made a century and well support from Moeen Ali scored 77 runs. The target is good SA started his batting and lost 1 wicket now the score is 56/1. They need 284 runs from 41 overs. SA got good batting lineup I think it is the chasble score.
SA lost the first wicket early but they come up with good batting in 2nd wicket partnership. Now they lost back to back 2 wickets the set batsman Amla and du Plessis out. The score is 151/3. ABD and Duminy are batting they need 189 runs from 24 overs. If England takes 1 or 2 wickets, then they will win this match. The match is very interesting.
929  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is bitcoin transaction fees fair? on: May 24, 2017, 07:05:13 PM
Personally, I feel that Bitcoin has a transaction fee increase when the price of Bitcoin goes up though the compared to the amount of Bitcoins there is the whole Bitcoin supply it really is not that much of a fee for the people that aren’t late to the game.
Bitcoin is just a regular thing just like anything else, if people just don’t like Bitcoin and other Currencies for the transaction fee then they should just move on to something different.
Now people don't care for transaction fee because the price of bitcoin is going up and up. So if anyone moved out from this bitcoin, then it will become his worst decision he's taken by in his life. Actually, this is the time to work for bitcoin. Don't think about transaction fee just collect bitcoin and make money.
930  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Will Hit $1 Million In 5-10 years, What’s your say about this? on: May 24, 2017, 07:01:26 PM
All I am going to say is anything possible...Especially within this industry
yes anything is possible in the world now, if it will gonna happen, i will be one of those people who will be joyful because it will be happen, i will keep my money until the value will rise up, it will have a profit on my online wallet even though it was left there. people will get interested more because of the value that the bitcoin has made.
Right, anything is possible in this world. your dream may come true in the future, or it will not. but the expectation is high on bitcoin. If any other currency does not replace this bitcoin, then your dream may come true. If any other currency becomes popular, then it is a bit tough to reach your target price.
931  Economy / Speculation / Re: How MUCH will the FINAL BTC be WORTH? on: May 24, 2017, 06:57:08 PM
Everything here are just speculation. No one can really tell how much bitcoin will be worth in the future. It can go very high or it can go zero. What is important right now is, development of bitcoin. If development and adoption stops, then it can lose its value. If it adopts well, it can go very very high in value.
Yes it depends on demand and supply in the market. If the demand stops then automatically the value of bitcoin will drop. Now people are addicted to this bitcoin, so demand is so high that is why the price is increasing. Suppose in future people will addict to some other altcoins then surely the BTC price drop.
932  Economy / Speculation / Re: If I showed you this a year ago, would you have believed me? on: May 24, 2017, 06:54:39 PM
Nope. Even if you have shown it a month ago when the bull rally started, I would still doubt that the price will break 2K much more a year ago. Bitcoin is really unpredictable.
Don't know for what reason it is increasing but yes bitcoin is really unpredictable. Just ion 2 months $1500 increment in BTC price and ETH also slowly becoming popular in the digital world. There is an almost double increment in ETH coin. It is fast growing altcoin in the digital world. This is the right time to buy some coins and hold in your wallet.
933  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What if all nations of the world started to use bitcoin on: May 24, 2017, 06:51:01 PM
I've heard that bitcoin is already being used in Russia and Japan, but officially I've yet to find citizens using bitcoin transactions directly. I think there is currently no official State using bitcoin.
Yes people are now interested in bitcoin. Especially for those people who are in the eastern. If all nations started to earn bitcoins it will be good. Because people will get interested on it. And they will invest their money. The bitcoin price will go higher because of the demand of the people.
both russia and japan legalizes bitcoin as a form of payment , it's doesn't mean a lot of people would use bitcoin there . just pushing people trust , once government make a public announcement , alot of investor would start to take bitcoin seriously as a place to invest and also some merchants would consider to adopt bitcoin as the payment processor. it's pretty clear could leading into bull market.
I heard that not only Japan and Russia legalised bitcoin even Austrailia also legalised this bitcoin their country. But I don't know in that country people are accepting bitcoin for payment mode or not. But bitcoin ATM 's are opened in this country. I hope in future the govt will allow people use bitcoin in all business.
934  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket match prediction discussions on: May 23, 2017, 05:50:10 PM
Tomorrow got a good one-day match between England and South Africa. England is playing at home ground and got some advantage over SA. But SA is not a weak team and them too good in playing these fast tracks. So this match will be very interesting to watch. I feel SA may give a surprise to England team in tomorrow match even though England is playing at home ground. What do you guys things?
Sout Africa is not a weak team bro, and they are very strong in limited over matches. And some players had good practice in IPL series. I think SA will be given a tough fight to England. This match will be entertaining, and England have to home ground advantage, so they have a chance to win this match. My choice is SA.
935  Economy / Economics / Re: Can Bitcoin also lead to corruption ? on: May 23, 2017, 05:44:58 PM
A huge big and the most well knowned cryptocurrency in our cryptomarket now may also lead to corruptions by the holders of the bitcoins wallet and the main bitcoins network itself,they can easily manipulate our bitcoins if they want to
How they can manipulate bitcoin when they don't know who else holders of tons of bitcoin in this world. Also government is using bitcoin for their private transaction maybe they are the one who is leading corruption on each country that they leading. What can you say about this thought?
Yes all politicians are investing their black money in this bitcoin. no one can track this, and it is a safe method to save black money. But I have one doubt is there any people that they will buy bitcoins for hand to hand cash? If this facility is there, then there is a possibility are there to save black money in bitcoin. If it is not there, we have to convert BTC in online only, and the amount will deposit our account means it is not possible.
936  Economy / Economics / Re: The future of the paper money on: May 23, 2017, 05:37:54 PM
Paper money will stay forever.
Why? Because its easier to make than coins.

Yes it will still remain because its a global currency that almost all the country used. Paper money has a big role in this world. I think bitcoin will not replace it because some government didn't accept other type of money especially if its by technology.

Paper money has been in use for over 100 years and it is used everywhere in every corner and village of the world. Bitcoin is not used everywhere and its basic requirement is Internet and currently you will not find internet everywhere. For paper money to be vanish, and bitcoin taking over, needs a whole lot of infrastructures changes  in the world which is not possible in near future.

Yes, bitcoin will never replace paper money in this present generation. Maybe next generation it is possible but very tough to implement this in all over the world. Present generation all business is running based on this paper money. Still, bitcoin is not captured the internatinaol market. It is only famous for online gambling and trading. People not implemented in real life business.
937  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin is Becoming a Global Currency on: May 23, 2017, 05:33:51 PM
Yes it is. Bitcoin is starting to become bigger here in Brazil. When I discovered Bitcoin in 2014, almost no one knew about btc when I asked them. Now, people I know may not be experts but they know the name and the basic concept of Bitcoin. We also can finally buy some stuff more easily with btc.

It's good to hear that man, more people notice about bitcoin in brazil. In the other hand, here in indonesia, people still don't know about bitcoin. I hope someday bitcoin become popular too in indonesia.
Bitcoin is not widely spread. The spreading is just happening through the users and not through promotion or through some other form of marketing. So it takes time to reach every nation, it becomes a simple task and spreading happens within a country widely when the government take initiative same as Japan.
We don't have more publicity to this bitcoin that is why still more people don't know about this bitcoin in all over the globe. Maybe govt put condition to bitcoin don't do publicity in television media and in the newspaper that is why we do not see any news regarding this bitcoin.  But in future, it will change, and all govt may support bitcoin.
938  Economy / Economics / Re: How to teach kids about Bitcoin? on: May 23, 2017, 08:11:02 AM
Interesting so the learning can be twofold:

1) The technology side, the puzzle that is part of the mining process, and

2) The financial implications, the money management element.

Good stuff, any other ideas?
Yes I agree with you

Children should be introduced to technology because technology is almost a necessity for mankind.
Children doesn't need to exposed to technology at young age because it will be a wall for them between technology and their childhood experience. Children needs more socializing skills and also basic things to learn before technology and they can still learn the technology when they get at least teenager and we don't need to rush them to learn such things.
It's good for them to be expose if they can understand it, it will give them a good training so the in the future
bitcoin will interest them. However, we have to understand that they are just kids, they need to live a balance life.

It would not be the best time to introduce bitcoins to kids as they will surely find it complicated and won't show any interest in it and will prefer to have fun with their friends and basically will enjoy the outdoor games in compare to online games.

It is not the right time for kids to teach them about Bitcoin but you can teach them about basic financial management and its importance. Also early exposure in technology might promote a gadget-inclined person lacking in social life which in fact is needed so you can interact to others effectively. Everything has right time where they are ready and open-minded regarding this then it is the time to teach them.

Yes in this generation kids they are so fast they will learn anything very quickly. But I also advice don't teach about this bitcoin to your kids in young age. They have many things to learn at this age. If you teach them how bitcoins works and how to make money. They will not show interest in another subject, and they only concentrate on easy money. This may spoil your kids future.
939  Economy / Economics / Re: The dream of getting rich with bitcoins on: May 23, 2017, 08:06:23 AM
I don't have any dream of getting rich with bitcoins as my income from bitcoin is really low and I even don't have enough time to spend online but one thing I always make sure that whatever I earn from bitcoins I save them for future without spending anything.
That's why you dream so you can increase your income, I am sure you want it to make it happen, right?
if we will not dream and we are contented them surely we will not get what we want, the good thing with dreaming to be rich is you will be encourage to start your way to be rich, we all have opportunity here and it really depends on us how we use our time and effort to produce money.

I do agree. You need to have a goal or something that will drive you to be better. I set a goal with me like acquiring my first Bitcoin then I will surely work hard for it until I will achieve it and then set another goal which will fuel my urge to earn more income to reach it. This is what drives me to be better of myself. By doing this, I came to exert the right effort and time so I can achieve it the soonest.

Yes we need to make one goal in our life then only we will be active more, and we work hard to reach that goal. I don't have any goal to become rich from bitcoin. But I have one thing in my mind that is now the price is so high so how much I can make possible that much money, i want to earn from this bitcoin. If I am not become rich from this bitcoin also no problem, I just want some extra money for my future plan.
940  Economy / Economics / Re: panic selling on: May 23, 2017, 07:58:48 AM
back in the day i panic sold a few times. btc, ltc, eth.

in each case if i had hodled i would have in much better shape. i mostly hodl now and sell a bit here and there when the price is good.

live and learn.
I can tell you have learn from your experience, you have been here in the crypto world for so long and that experience will make you matured.
My focus now is to hold only, I am so amaze by how the price rise in a short period of time and it seems like there is no stopping for bitcoin, I just coudn't imagine how people have supported with bitcoin and those who adopted early are so lucky.

Same as you, I wish I have known Bitcoin sooner. In my short period of time in Bitcoin, I go panic selling when the price is high and I miss the opportunity since what I though was high has gone higher than it was. So it is good to wait a little bit and see where the price will take its path by keeping yourself with news, updates, and seek other people's point of view which are far more experienced than you.

Panic selling is common for everyone. Many people don't have the patience to wait. Once the price fell we think it will go down so better, we can sell our coins. This type of mistakes many people do include me I also did this mistake many times when the price reached $1k and suddenly fell to $800. Now I think why I made that mistake if I have that bitcoins now it's double profit.
