941  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling all about luck? on: October 08, 2023, 06:31:24 PM
Because games depend on luck but I think gambling is good luck. Gambling is not a simple game because there is a lot of money involved so at the end of the day some become rich and some remain poor. You will become more addicted to gambling when you suddenly win repeatedly. But when you lose, you will think about making double money in the future. Moreover if luck is good you can prosper from any business be it gambling. Yesterday my brother won some money from gambling and that day my friend sold his bike to gamble.

We have a saying where I live now and when someone wants to bless you they say not work hard but "may luck work for you and not you for your luck" a very nice saying which clearly answer the question asked here,in life everything is related completely 100% on luck.Why you may say?Well have you not seen that corrupt people run governments now in most countries while people with integrity work like slaves or worse even they are at home unemployed,that is why luck is needed 100% in your life if you want to have a good life,that is why I fully believe this saying,may luck work for you and not you for your luck.
In real life, there are always lucky people, even though they don't have a higher education, they can achieve success, there are even people who are not very smart but can get a decent job so they can earn quite a large income.
It's not much different from gambling, there are those who spend quite a lot of capital to gamble but always lose in the game and even the winnings are not commensurate with the amount of money that has been spent, but there are also those who gamble with small capital but can achieve consecutive wins.
This shows that gambling is based on luck
If fortune itself wants to be with someone then that person will definitely succeed in any platform. In each case, lucky people can easily reach their destination. If luck is there then gambling knowledge is not needed but lots of people are doing education or research about it. fate does not work equally for all. A person who has been playing the lottery all his life he didn't get the lottery but incidentally who come and get a lottery ticket and wins. There are many cases where the aspirants are rebuked and the undeserving ones win. No one can ever succeed in gambling with just knowledge and ignoring luck. Overall luck is important factors in gambling.

After looking 200 target India faced a rough start with their top three batters getting dismissed for a duck. However, there's hope as both Kohli and KL Rahul are heading a solid partnership.
But, a significant moment arrived when Mitchell Marsh dropped Virat Kohli's catch. Australia's fielding took a hit. This could be a crucial point in the match. Kohli has been fortunate in this innings, and let's hope he capitalizes on this luck to steer India towards victory.
Finally India won by 6 Wickets in just 41.2 overs. They achieved their target very smoothly, Virat Kohli scored 85 runs out of 116 balls consisting of 6 fours and no sixes has been involved in his innings. While Kl Rahul was the top scorer from the India Team today, scoring 97 runs in 115 balls consisting 8 fours and 2 sixes towards the boundary. Hardik Pandya came in and he scored 11 runs of 8 balls with a massive six.

Australia was not in the form, there bowlers and their batters hasn't play some impressive cricket today, although at the start the start of their bowling, they played really well by taking 3 wickets of India, and these 3 were all out for 0 runs, but then Virat Kohli and Kl Rahul gives a strong partnership to India. And finally after the good partnership between Virat Kohli And Kl Rahul leads India to win.

The way India made a comeback after losing 3 wickets for just 2 runs is admirable. The batsmen are naturally under extra pressure after 3 top order players return to the dressing room so quickly. But India's two experienced batsmen, Virat Kohli and KL Rahul, batted very responsibly and took India ahead. Kohli and Rahul made a partnership of 165 runs. But I feel bad for Rahul. He was unbeaten on 97 runs. He failed to score a century for just 3 runs.

This pitch was spin bowling friendly. And India's spin bowlers have also had success. But the Australian captain used only his pace bowlers. Australia needed to form a squad that considered the pitch conditions. Then maybe the match would have been competitive.
Watching today's game, a team like Australia felt very helpless. India's bowling line-up was so strong that they could do anything. Australia's batting style seemed to put them under a lot of pressure. With such a bowling line-up, I can't find any other team in the World Cup who can defeat India and win this World Cup cricket. I have seen many matches but very few matches where the Australian batsmen felt helpless. After losing Steven Smith wickets seem to come and go situation even though some on the pitch but could not score. Expected a competitive match but it didn't happen. Australia somewhat expected good to fall 3 early wickets but the Indian batsmen are not the type they will fly away if they blow. After all India team showed the best.

What's the point of HODLing bitcoins? Do you think that if we all hodl, the value of coin will go up? Why do you expect increased demand on bitcoin in case of hodl when there are alternative cryptocurrencies? There is no point to hodl money, money has to be in circulation in order for new products to be created and for services to be done. That's how this world works and functions.

If investors think more potential in Bitcoin and hold more then of course the price will increase due to the holding. First we need to be aware of why we should choose Bitcoin as a holding. In this regard bitcoin circulation, maximum supply and demand are the most important factors. Not certainly but we can make a prediction that Bitcoin price will surpass it's previous ATH. Which is not possible with any altcoins. Temporarily, many people try to make money by investing in altcoins and making a plan like gambling. There some will gain while others will lose their money. Some will do this consciously and many will do this type of mistake because they don't know. I would like to say  those unconscious investors that if they had better understood the benefits of holding in Bitcoin, they would not have gone down such a wrong way. If investors are more aware they will try to collect more coins. If everyone tries to hold, demand will increase and ultimately the price of Bitcoin will increase. Today the total marketcap in the cryptomarket is 1.13 trillion where 545 billion in Bitcoin so I can never compare bitcoin with any other coins in the crypto market especially holding purpose.
944  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you gamble till old age or not on: October 07, 2023, 07:52:44 PM
~snip~
Yes, this is 100% true, the potential for gambling addiction should not be underestimated in any age group. Even at the age of 60, addiction can manifest itself in a more aggressive form than at a young age. But I meant that, on average, older people are calmer if divided into 2 large groups: young and old gamblers.

When I often see on TV or on the Internet when they show Las Vegas, there are a lot of retirees sitting at the slot machines, but I think they like to go out somewhere and spend time, which they have plenty of. Young people prefer to play online, and of course there are tens or hundreds of times more of them than those pensioners. This is also facilitated by aggressive advertising of gambling in all areas, even in games such as Dota 2 and CS, where rare items that cost a lot of money fall out of the chest. I would even call it a hidden form of gambling that minors are taught to do from a young age. I think this is a real problem.
Gambling addiction is age-neutral. Young or old, gaming can be highly alluring. Yes, older people may appear calmer, but it doesn't mean their addiction is weaker

We often assume Las Vegas retirees are there for fun. Who knows what's in their minds?
Of course, not all retirees always have the right mindset as I said above, and it's only right that no one can know what's really on their mind, it's not uncommon that they can think of something even beyond our expectations. So the point is that whether they are addicted or not cannot be measured by who they are, how old they are, only they know what they will do.
Those who are already old enough have the ability to analyze judgments. They know very well where to stop and where to go. It is difficult for an older person to get addicted to gambling rather he can manage gambling very well. They can be careful where others go wrong because they have more experience than a newbie. I am not worried about addiction especially for older ages gambler. But what I think is important is what they want to do at that time. If an old man enjoys gambling I will certainly let him do so. He can take the decision which he understands best considering his physical and human aspect.

As expected, SA won the match by 102 run, Sri Lanka fought back to some level and managed to bring the score as closest as possible because at one point it's evident that they are going to lose by margin of 200 but with 100 they can say that they recovered from huge fall in the NRR which may hurt at the tournament progress.

After South Africa set a huge target of 429 runs I thought they would win this match by at least 200 runs. But Sri Lankan batsmen played very well. In the end, the team was able to collect a huge score of 326 runs. Sri Lanka's two openers did not play well today by batting against a big target. But almost every player in their middle order played very well. And they managed to collect a huge collection of 326. So far I feel that New Zealand, South Africa and India have the right squads to qualify for the semi-finals. I am almost certain that we will see these three teams in the semi-finals. Which other team will qualify for the semi-finals cannot be predicted with certainty.
Such a score for South Africa on the World Cup stage has boosted their confidence to a unique level. The team has set a huge target of 429 runs which is very difficult for any team to chase down. Sri Lanka made some progress but they could not hold on their wickets. Playing against such a big score, they have to play hard and keep wickets or else they will not be able to reach the target. If Sri Lanka's first two wickets had got runs, they might have gone further. Overall they played well as they managed to score 326 runs against 429 runs. They managed to bat till 44.5 overs and if the wicket had been there the margin of defeat would have been reduced further.

2 interesting encounters coming up people. We have Afghanistan and Bangladesh duking it out and it's tough to tell who will win among them since they seem evenly matched, but my bet is on Bangladesh.

Afghanistan team's batting line is very weak due to which they were not ready to score enough runs against Bangladesh as well. But Afghanistan team's bowling line is quite strong as Bangladesh team lost two wickets in power play against Afghanistan. Therefore, if the Bangladesh team's patience is increasing at present, Nazmul Islam Shantar. The current pair of Mehdi Hasan Miraj and Nazmul Hasan Shanto depend on the Bangladesh team's run collection.
Bangladesh won the toss and decided to bowl first that a good decision. They all Out Afghanistan is just 157 runs in 37.2 Overs. Bangladesh bowlers bowling performance is outstanding especially Shakib ul hassan who picked 3 Important wicktes by giving 30 runs in 8 overs and Muhammad Hassan also picked 3 wickets by giving 25 runs only in 9 overs. From Afghanistan Rahmanullah Gurbaz is only batter who scored 47 runs and helped his team to cross 150 runs plus. The Current score of Bangladesh is 62 in loss of 2 wickets in 13.2 overs. Bangladesh Need 88 runs in 36 overs to win this match.
Shakib Al Hasan 8 over collected wickets 3
Mehdi Hassan Miraz 9 over collected wickets 3
Total 6 wickets collected by spinners.
In today's match, Bangladesh's two spinners have picked up a total of six wickets for Afghanistan, which seems to be a wicket-helper on the pitch. Then Afghanistan's Rashid Khan and Mujibur Rahman were supposed to get the wickets of Bangladesh but Bangladesh has not had a batting disaster so far. So it is possible to say that Afghanistan's batting performance was poor and they were bowled out for 156 runs in today's match. It cannot be a good target at all and it is not difficult for Bangladesh to meet this target.

Bangladesh is chasing the score very well , target is very close to them and they will win easily. Bangladesh score is  115 runs with fall of only 2 wickets. Mahidy performed half century for his country, he is not out on 52 runs with 70 balls. Shanto is also not on 38 runs with 55 balls. From  Afghanistan side , Gurbaz played very well and made  47 runs in 62 balls, Ibrahim Zadram scored  22 runs by facing 25 runs against Bangladeshi bowlers. Afghanistan all team out by making only 156 runs. No batter played well and that is low score match and Bangladesh will win one sided. Now ,Bangladesh need 42 runs to win and Bangladesh have 8 wickets in the hand.
That's right, none of Afghanistan's players could play well and as a result of not being able to play well, Bangladesh team won the match very easily against Afghanistan. Due to poor performance of Afghanistan team players, Afghanistan team fans are very angry. Because the fans of Afghanistan team have to face a lot of losses around this match. Afghanistan team could not do well in batting and bowling. To see such a disappointing performance by the Afghanistan team, I was not at all prepared. I thought Afghanistan will give a great match against Bangladesh in today's match. But Afghanistan came to bat first and were bundled out for 156 runs
I thought Afghanistan would get a big win in this match but it didn't happen instead Bangladesh did well there. Bangladesh all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan struck their first blow and their downfall began after that. But I could not imagine that Afghanistan will perform so badly. Because usually everyone tries to do something better on the World Cup stage. Although they beat Bangladesh in other series, they have always failed in the World Cup, especially against a team like Bangladesh. According to the condition they need to be more experienced. Although the Afghan team had the world's best bowlers Rashid Khan and Nabi but neither of them could set the field and the team ended the innings with a small score. When the target is small, any team can play there without pressure. As happened in today's match between Bangladesh and Afghanistan.
947  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Halloween inspired poll –would your Bitcoins get passed on if you suddenly died? on: October 07, 2023, 06:54:09 PM
I just found this thread about a Halloween inspired poll and it's great for discussing what one would do if the person who owned Bitcoin suddenly died.
A 3 year old topic has found life again.
Though it is an old topic but I can estimate that there are still many investors who are not aware. We know we won't live forever but we don't want to bring this fact in front of us. There are a large number of investors who decide to share my key or password with my coolest person but if suddenly die what will be happen? How much a family can suffer but we have nothing to do. We are still alive but not taking any quick action. It is our fault. Not only that, we should know how aware the people we are going to keep our keys and passwords. It is not the case that I only gave the necessary keys or password and my responsibility is over. Because if the person I gave the password  but he or she can not use it then what's the use of that wealth? So whoever I give the passwords or phrase to someone should be given an idea of how to use them. So that he or she can properly benefit from this wealth.

Netherlands are 80/2 after 17 overs, chasing 287. Pakistan were in a precarious position when they started their batting, but in the end they managed to get to a good score. Mainly because of some good batting by Saud Shakeel and Muhammad Rizwan.

Vikramajit Singh and Baas de Leede put up an excellent partnership after losing two wickets for just 50 runs. Vikramajit Singh returned to the dressing room with 50+ runs and Netherlands managed to collect 70 runs from this partnership. But after Vikramajit got out, the Netherlands team lost two more wickets very quickly. They lost the fifth wicket for 133 runs. Even though Bas de Leede is still at the crease, I don't see a chance for the Netherlands to win. It will not be possible for the team to collect 153 runs in 23 overs. It is difficult to collect against Pakistani bowlers. I guess Netherlands will be able to collect around 200-220 runs. Pakistan would win by a big margin despite being given a target of just 287 runs.
Pakistan beats Netherlands by 81 runs and started their World Cup campaign with a win. Pakistan bowlers bundle out Netherlands for just 205 runs to seal the match by 81 runs in their first match of world cup. Haris Rauf took 3 wickets and Hasan Ali took 2 wickets are pick of the bowlers for Pakistan against Netherlands with five wickets between them. Saud Shakeel was awarded the player of the match for his match winning batt ing knock against Netherlands in Hyderabad. Bas de Leede is a fighter Score 67 and 4/62 with the ball its is match to remember for him against Pakistan.
We can't understand the condition of Pakistan at the moment because it is normal to win against a weak team. They got a big win by 81 runs against Netherlands. But next October 10 when Pakistan will play against Sri Lankan team we will see a good competitive match. If Pakistan do well at that moment then we can have a good idea for the team. Although three teams are considered favorites in this year's World Cup cricket, many people think that Pakistan is not in the three. As an unpredictable team, they will definitely try to do well on a platform like the World Cup. Although their position was not good in the Asia Cup a few days ago. If the players can keep the confidence then good things can be expected.
949  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Never gamble in front of your kids. on: October 06, 2023, 06:05:08 PM
i dont think any gambler will intentionally want their kid to see them doing it. kids learn so fast and when they see their parent doing it they also want to try. its good to take caution and be very careful sometimes these kids might be watching their parents without them knowing and then they go to start practising behind them. one thing about children is that the like to practise what they see and if they see it constantly, it gives them confidence to want to try it.
I don't think any gambler have any intention of playing gambling in the presence of their children,  but some people are very careless in the manner of how they do things which they can even forget themselves by playing gambling In the presence of their children.  It is important for gambler to be careful and very conscious whenever they want to play gamble not to make mistakes of playing in the presence of their kids .
Children are very fast in learning and they pick interest to learn what will be a problem to their life in the future, gambling lifestyle can  be a severe problem for kids if they are affected by gambling.
. actually some people here in my country are too addicted in gambling, honestly speaking some of then are playing in front of their children and the worst thing is there's a time that after the adult play children will follow them and starts practicing the game. Which pretty bad cause in the young age they will involve in gambling but their parents don't have the power to control their children's cause because if them their children know or learn who to playm
If a family's parents gamble in front of their children, they will be encouraged to gamble. Due to this many kids may start gambling before they get mature. The problem will arise when parents and children are gambling. When the child gambles in front of the father, the father cannot control him because he himself is engaged in that act. A child's human development can be severely hampered. Something like what you say can definitely turn into a social disorder. Which will be difficult to control. We should keep the kids under control before any such situation arises. They should not be involved in any activity that may lead to any harm.
950  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can Gambling affect your relationship? on: October 06, 2023, 05:51:01 PM
Yes, Gambling addiction has strained a lot of relationships through financial instabilities emotional turmoil, social isolation, and family problems. Gambling which was meant to be a popular kind of entertainment for many and was designed to provide a temporary escape from everyday life and also help one to be more observant mentally task your brain and it is also good for your mental brain. When it becomes an addiction it causes financial strain the strain can manifest in various ways including the loss of shared savings, debt accumulation, and financial secrecy which may lead to strained communication between partners. This communication breakdown can prevent couples, friends, and associates from working together.
Any addiction would affect relationship.
All sorts of addiction would consume your time, attention and money so of course it would greatly affect your relationship.
Even if those who are addicted would explain it there are some who wouldn't even understand it.
Just gambling does not create any situation that break up the relation but when someone is addicted to gambling then only this kind of problem will be created. An addicted gambler has no time for family members. He has no sympathy for any family member. He is only busy with his gambling so no one would want to have a relationship with that addicted gambler in such a situation. However, there are many gamblers who spend a lot of time in gambling but try hard to behave normally. But its number is very less. Normally those who are addict will not try anything outside of gambling. It is not possible to return them easily from there even if they try.

Pakistan vs Netherland

Pakistan managed to score 286 runs in 49 overs after losing all wickets in the first innings against Netherlands. There were more expectations from Pakistan where the Netherlands were Pakistan's opponents. Babar Azam Mohammad Rizwan did not perform well.  Pakistan lost three crucial wickets early on which caused them to be in a lot of batting trouble early on but the middle order batsmen of Pakistan were able to take flight after that.  

A target of 287 runs on such a batting friendly wicket is an easy target for any team, if the Dutch batsmen don't give away wickets and if they can hold on to the wicket then they can surely collect 287 runs.  
After 12 overs so far, Netherlands have collected fifty-two runs for two wickets. Since Netherlands lost two wickets in the beginning, this match is still in favor of Pakistan.
Yes, you are right. Pakistan can win this match easily because Pakistani bowling line up is very good and Pakistan  Can defend this score. Pakistan will win this match .In past, Pakistan played very on Indian Wickets. Now, Netherland is playing very well. Muhammed Rizwan played excellent and made  68 runs in just 75 balls. Shakeel made  68 runs with just 52 balls, Muhammed Nawaz made 39 runs in 43 balls. Pakistan all team out by making 286 runs. Bas de Leede  took 4 wickets  by giving 62 runs in  9 overs. Colin took 2 wickets  by giving 39 runs in 8 overs.Vikramjit Singh is playing very well and he alive on 35 runs in 51 balls and Bas de Leede is not out on 27 runs in 28 balls. Netherland 's score is 88 runs with fall of 2 wickets. Match is very interesting but Pakistan will win at the end.
Everyone knew that Pakistan was the favorite in this match. But in the match when Netherlands built a partnership after losing 2 wickets that was quite commendable. If two more batsmen like Vikramjit Singh and Bas de Leede were in the team or could perform like them, it would have been a good session against Pakistan. But I saw that after the loss of the 3rd wicket, no one else in the Netherlands team could build a good partnership. Logan van Beek did well for the team. He was ultimately unbeaten in the team no one give him support. Netherlands lost the match by 81 runs but they had 9 overs to spare. If they had wickets, maybe they could have set a new record in this match. Finally it was no longer possible. As the condition of Netherlands team their contribution were not bad against Pakistan.

Yes, you can still make decent money when trading the volatility of bitcoin, but it is not a safe and recommended approach if compared to DCA.
Is never a guaranteed to make money from volatility, in as much as volatility is concerned the chances of making money is not certain, when we talk about volatility we are referring to price fluctuations moving up and down, however there are chances of you losing out your funds while trading volatility so we shouldn't always see volatility as an easy way of making money it doesn't work that way.

You can never compare DCA strategy and trading volatility because DCA is not established for day traders however it was brought to help people especially the beginners on how they can minimize risk and accumulate with the little funds they can afford.
Talking about DCA, it is a strategy that is highly recommended for beginner investors and also investors who plan to hold for a long time, every week is an opportunity to buy Bitcoin, now the choice depends on you whether you will become a trader or an investor.
I would not like to say specifically any new or old investors should follow DCA. Anyone can apply the technique by recognizing these beneficial aspects. However, those who are not financially astute may consider investing in Bitcoin as an opportunity to grow their portfolio. It doesn't matter how much I invest. But the key is that I am investing small amounts regularly which will help to grow my portfolio. It also plays a role in reducing risk as it creates investment opportunities. It is not possible for an ordinary or small investor to invest large amounts at once. If those investors are willing to invest then DCA may further encourage them to invest for the long term and definitely It will be the best way to invest systematically.

It is not only that Pakistan is playing badly in the warm up match , we have not seen good performance from the  pakistan team in the asia cup as welll . They lost badly against India and Sri lanka . Despite having such a strong and experienced squad,  their performances have been poor..

Pakistan's batting order performance is erratic as we have seen for a long time.  and paakistan can't  get their batting order right . pakisthan had the potential to do well in  this world cup as they have some great pace  bowlers in their squad . But the  performance of pakistan's pace bowlers is also looking  very poor now . And if this continues,  it will be impossible for pakistan to perform well and maintain consistency in the world cup.
You are old pal here on this cricket thread and still you are complaining about Pakistan performance which is little surprising for me because all cricketing community understand Pakistan is one of the most unpredictable team in this sport, and they have never been on same level even in one event one day they are doing impressive and just after one day they are having crap performance which is trademark of this team so if you are feeling they were bad in both warm-up games then it's nothing new hopefully we will have some good cricket from them in coming matches.

In Asia Cup they were completely outclassed by India as they give them no chance for recovery after having big target in rain hit match and against Sri Lanka this was fascinating game which won by host country narrowly at the end but now most chances we will have new level of game from them in this mega event.
Since the Pakistan team is completely unpredictable, it is difficult to predict their performance. We see a common case when playing against India, They also lose the natural cohesion that should exist within the team. It is very difficult for them to win against India at that moment. And sometimes when a performance is so good, the team has to be showered with praise. The journey to the World Cup will not be long if they can't recover the gap between their squads that appeared in the Asia Cup. The dominance of the Pakistani bowlers in the Asia Cup was shattered. It will be difficult to expect anything good from them at this point. But unpredictable as anything can happen in that case.
954  Economy / Economics / Re: What would you do in this situation? Invest or save? on: October 04, 2023, 06:14:17 PM
If you have plans to start a dream business that requires a capital of  $20,000 and you were able to make a savings of $15,000 which obviously isn't enough to start up the business, what would be your decision or advice?
I think for this depends on what business you want to do because of course when talking about the nominal that must exist to create a business it is only a rough picture because in the end things like that can be more or less which is indeed it adjusts from the budget that we have.
As for the options available if you really want to run a business then I think there is nothing wrong if you continue but the scale is smaller than the business you want to cover because this also refers to capital or if you want to be safer then look for other additions so that we can meet the shortcomings of your business budgeting.
Doing it in Investment is good but we must realise that investment takes a little longer and investment is not just saving money and then a few days later getting a big profit.
Agreed, many things depends on the type of business. It would be easier if the OP could give an idea about that type. Normally we think that starting a business with 20k where someone can collect 15k by himself will not be difficult to collect another 5k. First he needs to understand how long he will have to wait to arrange 5k by himself. If it is long or time consuming then there are two ways to choose. Either he has to raise money from some other source or he has to wait. If he wants to do business, he must take a quick decision otherwise someone else may start the business in his place. So I think if he can arrange that money from somewhere else that might be a good option.

As the Heading implies. Honda the giant of Japanese automobile now accept bitcoin and ethereum for payment through a third party partnership deal with a blockchain payment system called FCF Pay.
Honda not only taken the bold step of accepting crypto as payment option, also managed to expand their already huge user base with this important development.

*Will you be willing to spend your btc to buy car from Honda? Or any other automobile company that will follow the Honda's part?

*Which other automobile company would you want to also accept btc for payment?

*Is this news big enough to trigger market uptrend in the coming weeks, months?
A news that Honda Company is accepting crypto has got the crypto community in the world very excited. The company has a wide reputation all over the world. But in this age of technology, everyone has a competition to make their products better, but people's demand for products that will provide some other benefits increases. Some will eagerly try to purchase products from the company receiving their cryptocurrency. The craze for accepting payments in Bitcoin and Ethereum has also created a huge buzz in the crypto space where a large number of people will be interested in learning about their products. This news will have a positive impact on the price of Bitcoin. This is a happy news for those who love BTC or love the crypto space. But even if there is a buying opportunity, I will not try to buy products with bitcoin because I prefer it for holding for the time being.

You should agrre with me that everything that has an advantage also has its disadvantages, we cannot stop from embracing daily speculations on bitcoin market because that's one of the quality that shows we are traders or investors,
Yeah actually in as much as speculation maybe full of assumptions and uncertainty but in one way or another we derive motivation from those speculations, because Bitcoin price speculation helps to remind us that our plans for chosen to accumulate Bitcoin for investment is the best idea, you could imagine the kind of joy you would  have when everybody talks highly about Bitcoin and how big the price will become in the future were as you have accumulated a good amount of Bitcoin in your portfolio, perhaps even knowing the good potential of Bitcoin in the future through speculation you will be reminded that you made a good decision on holding Bitcoin.
that at first we believe bitcoin may be due to assumptions or speculation and also the analysis we do on the future of bitcoin. It's impossible for us to immediately believe in bitcoin when we just got to know it, right?
The motivation you say from speculation that others say makes us more excited. And we can also see how many people end up having to panic because of spculation that says bitcoin is smething bad and has no future or that says bitcoin is a scam. It proves that this does affect bitcoin holders, especially those who are new to bitcoin.
You can't believe in anything until you go through deeply. Trust in Bitcoin will only come when one can gain a holistic knowledge in Bitcoin. Who are outside of this concept, Bitcoin may be only a minor currency. They may consider only for a trading tool for the time being. There is a wide difference in opinion between bitcoin believer and who doesn't want to trust Bitcoin. We want to hold Bitcoin for the long term because we dream of getting a reliable return in the future. When the price of Bitcoin rises temporarily, Our confidence is unwavering, we pursue our long term goals and when it falls, we have the opportunity to further increase the portfolio by using DCA.

Nobody knows if the price of bitcoin will go fown again. It may or may not as it is hard to predict bitcoin price movement.
It is well-recognized fact that predicting the future price of bitcoin is difficult. But historically speaking, October seems to be a month when the price of a bitcoin tends to rise a little more than in previous months. It's possible that we'll witness the green candlelight of bitcoin in the month of October. At the very least, it won't be a terrible idea to anticipate that the price of bitcoin will increase in October compared to other months.

King daddy gives no shits about months... so maybe it will go up and maybe it won't.

up or down in the future no one knows, but if the rumors are true that there will be an increase then this is a good opportunity, not apart from that investors or traders must remain vigilant about the news about BTC that will rise or fall, being aware of the news about btc is certainly necessary so as not to predict it wrong.

With rumors circulating that btc managed to close the month of September positively and will experience a rapid increase, this is a good opportunity so don't be wrong in predicting it or wrong with the rumors circulating about btc, not many people take advantage of this moment to make a profit.
Bitcoin being a highly volatile currency, there will always be rumors about it which is usual. By this volatility bitcoin coin trader will be more excited with the price whether they make profit or loss but it is not a concern of a Bitcoin holder those who are waiting for that day of Bitcoin. I don't think it's necessary to consider such market conditions for those who wait until it reaches their desired level. This is a golden opportunity for those who have not yet collected Bitcoin, but those who are true holders of BTC do not have to worry about the temporary increase or decrease in the price of this BTC.
This is where the distinction of a Bitcoin holder is reflected. Those who are worried about the temporary rise and fall of the price of Bitcoin must need to acquire better knowledge of Bitcoin holding.

My question is this, will you continue to gamble till old age, or you have planned to stop gambling at a certain age?
I am not referring to addicted gamblers that will learn a hard lesson before the quit, but only responsible gamblers that are taking all prevention measures to addiction.

I will answer first.
I will love to quit gambling when I am 42yrs because I don't want to give gambling much time and I will prefer to look for an alternative means to have fun.
There is no problem if you take this decision on your own. It is free for all. Anyone can gamble anytime they want and can stop it if they want. As people grow older, their tastes will also change. Now he needs a lot of money in old age something else might be good. But those who enjoy gambling can do so even at an advanced age. Because people don't have any work when they are old. They have to focus on one thing to spend their time. From that point of view, I think not everyone can give up gambling. I have seen many people who are over 50 but still gamble. Since not everyone is the same, many will give up gambling and many will want to continue.

We should not save large amounts of money on any gambling platform and I recommend withdrawing the balance to prevent something unexpected from happening on the gambling platform, if we have a high balance on gambling it will affect gambling on higher bets, because we think we have spare money to recover losses but actually bad choices that increase the risk of high losses on your balance. I rarely leave large balances on exchanges and gambling because I worry about making mistakes, so it's better to leave some money that I can afford to lose for gambling needs.
We only need to set aside enough money in a gambling account, especially if the money is for gambling the next day, so we don't need to deposit any other money. For the most part, we can withdraw the money and send it to another personal wallet to prevent anything unexpected on the gambling platform so that we won't lose the money, especially if it is winning money we have previously received. That's to prevent bad things because we don't know what will happen later. We can only try to prevent everything and that is for our good too. And if we only leave enough money in our gambling account, it will reduce the risk of bad things that could happen.
That's not hard to do if you're a kind of gambler who is not easily tempted to use the money to play regardless of where it came from (either from deposit or winnings from the said platform). But usually, if we have funds on our account, we tend to use it to play our favorite gambling games. This is also the reason why it is not advisable to deposit money on your gambling account just for the purpose of saving.

In addition, casinos often have a wagering requirement before you can withdraw your initial deposit so it's not really a good idea to store your funds on gambling platform.
Of course I think it would be a wrong decision if trying to keep money for savings purposes on any gambling platform. Moreover, it is very difficult to keep that money safe because the gambler himself may spend that money unknowingly. I have heard from many people where they said that if there is money deposited in the casino then many people try to make more money and they lose all. The most important thing is that money should not be kept somewhere where it can be lost due to a small mistake. Of course, it makes more sense to keep the amount you need on the gambling platform and transfer the rest to your personal wallet.

In my experience , it wasn't really just the knowledge that you need in order to hold, what you need is multiple sources of income, because you cant really HODL if your just depending on one source of income,  meaning your depending on the profit of cryptocurrency so if you needed that money badly your just gonna end up selling your cryptocurrency at a wrong price or wrong timing.

In investing, capital is always the first thing people think of, it is the way to start an investment, but in my opinion knowledge is equally important, even more important. Because when you have in-depth knowledge about a certain field, you can also make money from it, you can accumulate capital from your knowledge. Whether you are a trader or a holder, knowledge is always essential and a top priority. Without knowledge, no matter how much money you have, you will lose everything because you do not understand the fluctuations of bitcoin and the appropriate time to buy and sell.
I think those who think too much about capital to be able to invest will never start investing. Starting to invest does require capital, but knowledge is what is really needed about the investment we are going to make. In my opinion, if we have a passive source of income, it will make it very easy for us to do this by taking the rest of our salary from what we need to be able to invest and most importantly, they have a good understanding of the profits they will receive and the risks of loss.
I really agree with you that with knowledge we can make money and we can invest with the money we make because no matter how much capital we have, it will run out without us understanding how to manage it well.
Yes, agree with your thought that investing does not require much capital. If an investor acquires his investment knowledge and starts investing by making small amount of money especially by following DCA then he can gradually increase his investment and he can solve the financial problem as well. But if he does not have knowledge, it is worthless even if he owns a lot of wealth because we often say that if a man is not educated then he is blind even though he has eyes. In the same way it can be said that without investment knowledge he will not be able to see what is offered to him no matter how good it is. So capital is not always the important thing in investment.
