I think for bitcoin to be a real currency, government have to accept it first.

Yes, very well said. They have to recognize it first before declaring it as a real currency just to show their support and interest to bitcoin for the public.

So I ask what country do you think will recognize it as a currency?

No one knows and this is impossible to happen, there will be no country that is interested of replacing their very own local currency in exchange for a decentralized cryptocurrency. That will be a risky market and economy for a country that will do that.

Mathematics is all about logic and numbers while in gambling there is logic, numbers and luck. But solving some algorithms or scripts on a gambling site with the use of Mathematics, I don't think it's possible to help you win in any gambling game. Some statistics can help you to win through sports betting and in that way I guess it can help you but only that way otherwise, it can't.
9703  Economy / Economics / Re: why is it so hard to buy bitcoin on: October 03, 2017, 04:10:36 PM
I don't think one will consider it hard to get, except if u want to remain anonymous. If u are ready for verifications u can always get bitcoin except if u are from China

Yap, those exchanges that are requiring identifications can trust you now to buy bitcoins whenever you want. But if you are using a shitty exchange like yobit then you'll really have trouble for purchasing your bitcoins. And not only bitcoin is the one that's having problem there and also many coins. Not only with the deposits but mostly with the withdrawals.
Yobit have some issues for the coins out there and also for the withdrawals but the Yobit team are always working hard to solve the problems that they currently have in their exchange. I am trading in Yobit also and based on my experience, i don't encounter any problem with their exchange and in fact, Yobit is one of my favorite because it is fast to make profit there.

No, they are not doing their best and they are even not working hard to answer those queries in the scam accusations and within their thread. There are so much problem that this exchange has been experiencing and giving their customers a lot of inconvenience that leads them to say that "it is hard to buy bitcoin" and instead of adding a good wave in the market cap, they are trying to consider some alt coins

Make life more simple and less complicated.
Why bother to buy those exchanges if you don't like the way they manage?
Just buy to trusted sites like bittrex and etherdelta so you can transact with no hassle.
And you'll not be worried to transact here as many users trade here and they cater a lot of coins.

It's true better to live in the simplest way and deal with less trouble. I'm just elaborating the real scenario on some people that wants to buy with them.
9704  Economy / Economics / Re: Do You Think Bitcoin Will Replace Dollar Soon? on: October 03, 2017, 03:36:52 PM
My answer is no. We are far from seeing bitcoin replace dollar very soon, when we say "soon" it's near to come but without any certain verdict that's exactly going to happen. Bitcoin will not be considered as the main currency for a country nor will replace dollar. It's still risky for the gov't to fully focus to cryptocurrency and depend their transactions to bitcoin but this is on their part.
Indeed, bitcoin will not replace the dollar because of its lack of supply and stability and the government will never acknowledge bitcoin for being a main currency for their country because of the decentralization. Bitcoin will just become an addition to the use of fiat currency but it will not become a replacement ever.

The government will not turn themselves into crypto economy if they don't have assurance that they can control the supply and market of bitcoin. But they are aware of the volatility and they are not into decentralization. Bitcoin can't be considered as the replacement of dollar but it's a good alternative for us that are subject to the centralized system of the government. And it's a digital money and by generating it to physical thing needs a lot of many stuffs.

You should at least find something that will divert your attention. Ask youself on what else you like most. For example, I like eating, watching tv show series and movies  and playing pc games. All of those things, playing pc games really got me addicted so much.

You know what, gambling while watching tv is fun, gambling while eating is fun and gambling while playing some other games is fun. These hobbies shouldn't be preferred for diverting your attention better try to do some off road activities or outdoor activities. That will be effective if you really want to forget and quit gambling for good, I know that this is very possible if you'll find your hobby.

Exactly, just form a habit out of a hobby and i think you should be fine because the gambling was a habit you formed and replacing it with something that can also sway your attention away is better and so a hobby is the best replacement.
There are some hindrances that you will face upon trying to quit gambling for real. Because there will be some temptation when you are doing something just to forget your gambling addiction. There will be those times that you are itching to gamble but you have to fight that temptation and it will be good for you just to do something that will disturb yourself on thinking about getting back in gambling.

9708  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to control greed on gambling? on: October 02, 2017, 11:08:19 PM
For me it is simple. There is no control when it is about gambling.

You are wrong, there's control in gambling. Only the gambler is the one that can do that control and if you are thinking that you can't do it, then expect what will be the output of that way of thinking. And for sure that will be a negative result because you don't have plans of controlling and instead of looking some better ways you are judging yourself that you can't do it or there's no way for you to control greed.

If you could control yourself you wouldn't be gambling in the first place, everyone knows you will very likely lose the money. You never really know when you are about to lose or win so after you start betting there is no such thing as controlling yourself because you don't control the odds, you might very well just lose very fast or win a lot, how do you manage your ''greed'' in those cases? You cant.

Don't say like that, control means that you have the power to take over into something. And if you wouldn't be gambling in the first place then you don't have an interest in gambling and that's the simplest answer why you are not into gambling. You can manage greed believe me, if you are a responsible person and you had bad experiences from the past then for sure you'll be able to make it.

9710  Economy / Economics / Re: Worst bitcoin decision you've ever made? on: October 01, 2017, 05:25:02 PM
the very worst bitcoin decision i've ever made is when i ignore it i 7years ago instead of  trying, If i just tried it since someone introduce to me,maybe i am one of the richest in the world.

Wow it's like you are one of the earliest adopter of bitcoin and for sure you are one of the most richest person in the world if you didn't ignored bitcoin. I admire those people that are able to invest in bitcoin and believe in this thing and just managed to hold it for a long time. Most of them now are truly rich and belongs to the new generations rich club. My worst bitcoin decision ever, is to sell it while it is on $800.

9712  Economy / Economics / Re: What is your best investment strategy? on: October 01, 2017, 05:06:20 PM
It seems to me that it's easy to buy coins and hold them for a long time until the price grows high enough to make a profit - the best way to invest which will not bring much risk.

Buying and selling of bitcoin is the most easiest part of trading. You don't have to be an expert or have a lot of background when it comes to trading. But if you are seeing people who are earning great amount with bitcoin by just doing this and just do the same thing. At the end of it, you are the one that will prove that this is the best investment strategy, buy at lower prices and sell when it's high.
9713  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know when to stop? on: October 01, 2017, 04:54:06 PM
It's very difficult to know when it's better to stop and quit the game.

For me it's not difficult to know when to stop. It's your capital, your fund, your money, your bitcoins that you are gambling and you should be aware on how to stop with yourself because if you don't then you are not valuing your own asset.

Because when you win, you want to play further.

And you are also thinking and confident that you'll win some more.

And when you lose you want to win it back.

This is very normal thing, we don't know when to stop because we want to recover and we don't give up on it.

Usually I listen to my intuition. It tells me when to stop and it rarely brings me in. But you need to set the limits for yourself anyway.

Setting up a limit is a good indicator to know when to stop.
9714  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Dice Game Bankroll Question on: September 30, 2017, 07:54:42 PM
Hello Community! thank you all for your kind answers and advice. As I have mentioned in a previous post, I own a domain name which gets a decent daily amount of Type-in Traffic from crypto gamblers. This is mainly because it is very similar to another Crypto-Dice domain name and from my understanding, people mistype it and end up on my website all the time!!. I am quite aware of the management and marketing requirements, hopefully I can fulfill that part, being an M.A. in International Economics Wink

Nice background since you have a decent educational background you know how to market things out. And you are aware of those big dice sites that has been operating for years now. In that case that you are getting good daily traffic because of the mistype letters / spelling for a specific website, there's nothing they can do now if those gamblers will shift to your new dice site. This amount should be a good start up
First off: you can start tiny with a bankroll size of about 10 BTC,
As you keep on operating, you have to get some more investors for bigger bankroll and max winnings.
9715  Economy / Economics / Re: there is an event whether later on 30 september on: September 30, 2017, 07:46:35 PM
a lot of news that appeared for the 30th of september will there be closing of buying and selling sites in china, is there any effect to bitcoin in the market


That's the deadline that was given to them in able to close and shutdown those exchanges in China. There can possible effect but we are used to it, we are sick of being affected with the China's bitcoin market.But for now, we are endured with this scenario. Still there's no sureness on this event, I'm even looking for the fork instead of these closures of China's local exchanges.

We still don't know what they're gonna do about these icos. They said 30 september first and then they didn'te repeat it. Everything can happen honestly.

They can totally cut the activities of those projects.

And seeing those tweets by the CEO of big exchanges in China, it's a real incident and they are stopping their exchange operation. This is the last day and they completely stopped their operations but we'll wait up until the end of this October or even earlier if there will be a rebounding of the said decision of PBoC about the close of these exchanges because they might give another chance after making regulations for them.
9716  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: the easiest way to make a profit from gambling? on: September 29, 2017, 10:12:22 AM
Gambling can be the riskiest investment so far especially online, but I suggest you can try sport betting at least they have a little of low risk compared to others.

It's a risky thing whether you invest or not. You just have to choose whether if you want to invest or play. And looking for an easy way to make profit in gambling, there's no other than dice games. This is the easiest game of all but still it's a risky way of getting profit in it. Don't think of an easy way to make profit in gambling, it's better if you'll invest your money into a casino's bankroll or be an affiliate partner.

9718  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If money would not be a problem, would you still gamble? on: September 29, 2017, 08:56:57 AM
I think that I would still gamble if money would not have been any problem as I like gambling not because I make fast money in it or anything like that which is the reason that many people are in gambling , I like and do gamble because it is a fun activity and relives my stress from work and other activities of life. But if money would not be a problem then maybe the frequency of my visits to casinos will definitely increase.

I'll gamble too, there's no problem of money anymore and why not take the chance that you'll gamble like there's no tomorrow.  I'm aware of myself on when to stop and how to control when it comes to gambling. And this is a dream come true that I'll be having no more troubles financially and in fact I'll not only going to gamble, I'll buy everything that I want with this financial stability.
9719  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin world currency on: September 29, 2017, 08:40:59 AM
I dont think this  possible with these transaction times and fees. Fee amounts are not efficient for small numbers. Bitcoin use will increase in the world. But bitcoin will not be available for all purchases.

The fee's aren't even high as of the moment unlike before the fees are getting crazily high. It's possible to happen, remember on what technology nowadays can do. There's nothing impossible now as world well known companies and bankers are showing their ideas and interest to bitcoin.

There would be a high possibility that bitcoin will be a world currency but not for now. There will be a lot of things to do, and a lot to consider before that.

This is what I would like to hear, the possibility is very real and even though we don't have an idea on when it'll happen, it doesn't matter.
9720  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do you feel when win in gambling? on: September 27, 2017, 05:09:03 AM
It's very easy to answer of course all gamblers will happy

It's a pleasure when I win all the time and when I lose it make me so bad and upset.

If they win big amount at their gambling activity
I am sure all gamblers will come back again to gambling their winning

All of the gamblers will celebrate it first and will take a small portion that will be used to keep on gambling. We all have the same feeling and we all think that we will become even luckier at the second try.
