9541  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What Triggers Gambling Addiction on: May 06, 2019, 06:17:36 AM
Winning is definitely the thing that triggers gambling addiction most of the times because everyone wants more money and for them gambling seems like the quickest and easiest option to optain it. When you win one time you get a feel of that and you want more so you continue hoping the same thing will happen to you every time.

Perhaps, I can give the other thing that could cause us to become addicted to gambling. That one thing is curiosity which always comes to the gamblers no matter if they win or even lose. We as human have a big curiosity about one thing, and if that thing is gambling, then it could attract us to going deeper in the gambling game.

Once we are going deeper in the gambling, the addiction will start, and we could not remember what our reason to play gambling in the early time is. In the end, we are part of the addicted people to gambling, and we are difficult to leave gambling.
9542  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Addiction Stories and Possible Solutions on: May 06, 2019, 03:51:49 AM
I agree, this is the main reason why there are some people are already addicted in gambling, because they want to win. If they experience some winning and they hoping that they will win again, therefore they are already addicted. Before you go gamble first of all just think well, and control yourself how to avoid a long playing or you should manage your self.

That is what we must do if we want to feel the experience in gambling games because not many people who can think like that and they come to gambling games and start the game without realizing that gambling is too dangerous to them. The bigger passion for winning the game, the bigger addicted which you will feel.

Controlling yourself in gambling games will be needed, and if necessary, you can come to the gambling place with your friend so he can always remind you to not stay for a long time in the gambling table. You need to leave the table as soon as possible when you feel something wrong with yourself.
9543  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Are you interested in knowing the real Satoshi? on: May 05, 2019, 02:53:40 PM
I am interested and curious about knowing the real Satoshi Nakamoto, but I realize that it's difficult to find him/her because he still not reveal himself/herself to the public. I know his reason why he is not showing in public, and that is because if he shows in public, he could be chased by the government agencies because they want to ask everything related to the blockchain. I am sure that the government wants to interfere in the blockchain and that is why the government still chasing him/her until now by secretly.

But I feel that in someday, the real Satoshi Nakamoto will come up and says that he is the real one because he can prove to all of us that he/she is the creator of blockchain. I think Satoshi Nakamoto is not one person only, but it could be some groups of people who work behind the blockchain in the early time.
9544  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will they ever find Satoshi Nakamoto? Make your prediction... on: May 05, 2019, 11:47:40 AM
I don't think we can find Satoshi Nakamoto with easy because we don't know where he lives and we don't know the picture of him, nor we don't know his real name. We only know that someone/some group of people using the name called Satoshi Nakamoto.

We don't know who is the family members of Satoshi Nakamoto so we cannot get their DNA to test. But we only know that person is the real Satoshi Nakamoto when he can use his wallet, send some bitcoin and with the other proofs. And I think we still difficult to find where he lives because I am sure that he doesn't want to be known as Satoshi Nakamoto.
9545  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Make Sure You have 2FA enabled on your exchange accounts on: May 05, 2019, 09:25:48 AM
I already enabled 2FA since the first time I register on the exchange because I have a bad experience in the past. I remember that when I am new in trading, I join in Poloniex but I don't read another instruction from them that telling all users to activate 2FA to give more protection to their account. And in one day, I see the suspicious transaction in my account because I see some of my coins have already sent into another wallet, but I know that wallet does not belong to me.

So I asked Poloniex Support System, and they check my account and telling me that someone who can access my account has compromised my account. So they suggest me to change my password, enable 2FA and email verification to withdraw the coins and after that, I don't have any problem.
9546  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Happy accidents on: May 05, 2019, 07:50:21 AM
I never got an accident that ended with happiness in gambling because for all of the time I've played gambling, most time I ended up with losing the coins. Besides that, I never imagine or expect to get a happy accident like you, and you are the luckiest person who can win that amount.

But perhaps, some people can get a happy accident like you in out there, and that means, that person has the biggest luck in gambling and not many people who can get that experience.
9547  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Instant withdrawal form betting site on: May 05, 2019, 05:34:15 AM
I think that now with a growth of the technology of the blockchain, we don't have to wait for a long time to receive the funds into our account especially if we use a higher fee for the transaction. We already know that there are so many gambling sites which have instant withdrawal and they can execute the transaction in less than 10 minutes, but still, it depends on the network itself because I have an experience before in the exchanges.

Usually, the transaction will be done in less than 5 minutes, but in that time, I am waiting for a long time, almost 30 minutes to arrive in my wallet. But after I check the time of confirming for the other transaction, it needs a long time to get confirmed, so I think that is fine because the network is busy to handle the transaction. But in normal time, the transaction doesn't need too long to arrive.
9548  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling - Eating your Brain and Money on: May 05, 2019, 03:40:25 AM
Well, the problem is US(gamblers) if we are going to be an addiction, we could not gambling industry on that matter. We have our responsibility to control our selves from addiction and we must apply self-moderated to our self just to avoid such thing that gambling might our brain and money to become an addiction. Indeed, we are the one who had a great decision and managing were right or wrong.

I could only imagine if most of the gamblers can have their responsibility to control themselves, then addiction will not happen to them. Besides that, they will get fun inside the gambling because they know that gambling can make them addicted and they will prevent the addiction.

The most thing important here is how we can control ourselves in gambling, so gambling doesn't eat our brain and our money, and we can prevent from the addiction. That is hard, it's not easy as it says, but I believe that we can do that.
9549  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Crypto integration into existing products and services. on: May 04, 2019, 11:16:08 AM
I think traditional companies integrating crypto will be better because that will give a chance for the adoption to comes since they have a large customer in real life. They will tell their customer about the cryptocurrency and let them try to pay whatever they bought with cryptocurrency. And if that works, I think the adoption will start faster than before because I think the customer will be curious about what is cryptocurrency.

The customer now is become smart, and they want to use a simple method to purchase, and they want to try with a new payment system. So if the traditional companies can introduce cryptocurrency to their customer, it will help cryptocurrency to grow more than now.
9550  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: HOW TO KNOW THE IDENTITY OF ALL ICO SCAMMERS on: May 04, 2019, 09:13:11 AM
Your example is easy to say, but it's hard to do. How if they use the third party in their local area to convert fiat? That will be difficult to trace since you don't know who is the third party person who receives the token. It needs a lot of things to clean the scammers, and it won't end in a short time. It's related to many people, and you need to trace one by one of the wallet so you can find the real scammers and track him down.

Besides that, they should have prevented from being traced by anyone, so they could use the fake identity to cover their action especially if they are expert in their field.
9551  Economy / Economics / Re: Crypto Scams are a global issue on: May 04, 2019, 07:22:48 AM
The scammers will get always around of us and will try to take our money if we are not careful, and it's not just happening in one country, but it's happening in all countries and all places. The target of the thief and the scammers in the cryptocurrency will be on the exchanges and the users as the article said and that means, we need to prevent for that thing happen. We could activate everything to protect our account so the chance to get scam or steal will reduce and we should choose the trust exchanges to help us to protect our coins.

We don't know when we get scam and only with preventing, and we can minimize the chance from being a scam. We need to be serious to protect our account and do everything we can to stay away of them.
9552  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Regulating bodies on: May 04, 2019, 04:48:59 AM
Online gambling is very popular nowadays, specially those who also uses crypto for playing. With this popularity, there's ton of gambling sites/operators available. But the problem is who to trust? who plays fair and pays fair?

Are there any regulating bodies that verifies, rates, and promotes gambling sites that is genuinely fair to its customers? Not just on fair plays but also gambling sites that protects its customers identity etc. Thank you.

As long as you can choose the right gambling websites and it's recommended by many gamblers, I think it is fine to trust that site. I think they will be fair to all of their members and I don't think they will cheat them because once they get caught of cheating the members, they will lose trust from the members.

Regulating will be good for the gambling site because, with the regulations, the members will get protection if somehow the gambling site cheats them. But I think it's difficult to regulate the gambling site because the site is on the internet and it's different than the real casino which operates in one country.
9553  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Royal ramble in the casino on: May 04, 2019, 03:11:10 AM
He probably wasn't an addict. I think addicts won't be shocked at that point in time because they gamble for fun. I also believe most addicts would gamble with experience as they already know the right way to gamble.
He most likely was a new gambler who was naiive, reckless and greedy.

Perhaps, he was shocked to see the result because that is out of his expectation, so he is shouting at loud and makes other people shocked too. But that is a strange situation for me because I never see one person who has done that thing. Besides that, I think that person needs to release his stress or something like that, so he releases using that way.

We could guess that he is too naive, reckless and greedy but we never know why he did that, and we cannot ask him directly. But if that person has got a problem with the other player, then I think he can do that thing because when we got a disappointing moment, we can shouting to other people and talk about everything that in our head.
9554  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gamble with your bitcoin in this post on: May 04, 2019, 01:04:28 AM
So we have many questions to OP, and I guess that the OP should about his idea, and we can understand what his mean. I think people can directly to bet in the site than in here because they will have many gambling site options to place the bets. Besides that, people can decide how much money they can use to gamble.

No offense OP but if you want to be professional, I think you should use an escrow agent, so it will look good for every member here because we know that there are so many scammers in out there and we don't want to see you are part of them. I am sure that your idea is good enough to give a new way to gamble, but as I said, you need to think again to open a service.
9555  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Who is a Bitcoin Millionaire on: May 03, 2019, 11:36:52 AM
I'm pretty sure anyone here or anywhere that holds thousands of bitcoins prefer to not expose themselves. That's pretty much just like asking to be kidnapped or to be targeted by hackers.
I agree, those who holds thousands of bitcoin never tell to anyone or expose him/her coins just to make it private and be safe to those bad guys especially hackers out there. Hackers are very popular with this kind of activity so it is safer to be quiet than to expose what you have.

That is right. They better to keep silent and not tell how many bitcoin they have or how much money they have. The thief is on everywhere, and we don't know who are they, and we need to keep by ourselves on our money. The hacker will always search on the next target, and once they found one target, they will do anything to steal the money from the owner.

I am sure that many people are bitcoin millionaire, some of them already sold their bitcoin in 2017 ago and still save the other amount of bitcoin and waiting for the next bull market. And the other still keep the most bitcoin in their wallet and not selling for a long time. If you can be one of the bitcoin millionaires, then you should always protect your wallet and don't tell anyone about bitcoin.
9556  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: I dont think beginners should start with airdrop anymore on: May 03, 2019, 10:15:38 AM
For now, doing airdrops will not profit as before because many airdrops don't have a price for a long time. People need to know and learn that cryptocurrency is not rich quick scheme and they need to stop thinking like that. There is another way they can do to get the money from crypto, and that is what they need to search to make money.

But if they don't want to listen to our suggestion, then let them feel to see that the airdrops are not worth to do. They really need to be patient to do many works in crypto because what we do now will give benefits in the long-term.
9557  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy every dip! on: May 03, 2019, 08:04:06 AM
That will require large capital if you buy in each decline, but the problem is difficult to determine the lowest decline to buy, and that depends on the courage in speculating.

I don't think so because, with money management, you can manage how much money you should use to buy in every dip, so you still have another money to buy again if the price continues to go down. That will work well for you but only if you buy on less than 5 coins and you only have a limit budget.

But if you are too greedy, and want to buy almost all potential coins in the dip, then, of course, you will need a big capital to buy the coins in every dip. That will make you difficult to determine which coins you should buy because you want to buy all of the coins in every time the price is on the dip.
9558  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why not just gamble with fiat? on: May 03, 2019, 05:43:07 AM
My local fiat casinos and sports betting sites will not let me gamble outside my country, do to country restrictions, so here are crypto casinos a great thing to use. I also like that I don't have to pass KYC on online casinos. As well as it is great to be able to use my crypto on something.

Many of us have the same situations as you, and that is why they choose to gamble with crypto. Using crypto for the bets makes them comfortable to gamble, they don't have to pass KYC that might be needed on the local fiat casinos or sports betting sites. Now people seem to play gambling by secretly without anyone knows what they did and they don't want to expose their activity in the gambling games.

Gamble with crypto can cover the anonymity for every gambler so they can continue to gamble on many websites which don't need to pass KYC. Besides that, people have so many coins they can use to place the bets, and they can use for just less than $5 to play gambling.
9559  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Any knows the mathematical formula to winning the lottery? on: May 03, 2019, 04:01:12 AM
Have you gambled lottery?
Why Mathematicians aren't riches now in gambling since they know and expert in equation solving finding the x value?
Equation solving in Mathematics are helpful to finds or pick the numbers, how did you know if it is even or odd numbers in right combination?
Is the binomial coefficient formula will really help you to find the right winning combination?

Share your thought here and let's discuss this. Cheesy

I don't think that mathematicians will chase the winning in the gambling because they dedicate their knowledge to science and it's more about money. Yes, they can solve the calculation in gambling, but I don't think that is their purpose of learning mathematics. They better to do something else that will be more important than just playing gambling. But perhaps, they are playing gambling in their free time or if they don't have any work.

I don't know how to calculate the formula to winning the lottery because I am not mathematicians either and I don't think that will easy for people who are not learning mathematics by deep.
9560  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: BitCrasha | New BTC Crash Site | Suggestions Wanted! on: May 03, 2019, 02:54:49 AM
If OP wants to run his business, he needs to keep his site running because of today, his site still cannot access, and it seems, the website is shut down for a while. Perhaps, he has a problem with the site and tries to fix it, and if the site is offline, I think the problem will be serious, or he wants to redesign the site to a better design.

I am curious about the site, and I hope we can see it's online again so we can visit his website and perhaps, playing some games in there.
