9721  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will Bitcoin price be $20000 next year? on: January 04, 2020, 03:51:29 AM
There is a huge possibility that Bitcoin reaches $20k next year probably near halving. Because of the halving the block reward will get halved which will make Bitcoin mining expensive for the miners or maybe a loss making venture. If miners leave, then it can create problem for the whole network. So the price need to keep up with the reduced supply to keep miners stick to the bitcoin.
Also, 2017 correction has been completed. Price has room to grow now.

I also don't believe in $20k levels before the halving. I expect rather $16-16.8k and then a beautiful nose dive back down to $12k. New ath either at the end of 2020 or 2021 as the end of the bull run.

Bitcoin price can go to $20k levels anytime, before or after the halving. We need to be patient because we still have more than 4 months before the halving moment happens, so we need to use this time to buy more bitcoin before the price start increases. In the waiting time, we can see many things that will happen with bitcoin, including the down of the price, so we need to be careful, and if the price is down deeper than the price now, I think we should prepare the money to buy more bitcoin.
9722  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What did you learn as a gambler? on: January 03, 2020, 01:02:12 PM
As a gambler, I knew how to not underestimate myself. I figured I could compete with myself quickly and I could just control myself. But when I tried to leave gambling after a couple of days, the gambling urge was so strong and then I realised how I could go against myself and it wasn't that easy to quit. So what I did I just stopped completely and now I barely never gamble just a few trades here and there on sports.
That is what we need to do in gambling. Controlling ourselves will be the important thing in gambling, so we can prevent the worst thing that can happen. We learn many things in gambling, including how to limit our money. And we can learn how to stop as soon as possible if we see that we don't have a chance to win. Stopping gambling will be the last lesson for gamblers because that will not easy to do because we need to have the power to control our minds to leave gambling forever.
9723  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will 2020 give new hope to Altcoin? on: January 03, 2020, 11:40:36 AM
The mentality of the people in crypto are so positive, so what if we don't have a good 2019, crypto is still here, altcoins still survives, so we still have the whole 2020 to wait for some good improvement.
now everyone has hope. I know that people are waiting for this year to see the price of altcoin or the season for altcoin arriving. honestly, I also have several altcoins that I think will develop this year. Well, I really hope this year has the same effect as of 2017. this year actually gave new hope, even one of the years awaited by the holders.

I am sure that people can wait for this year. Now we are in the new year moment which can bring those hopes to become real although we don't know the right time when the market will be changed. Maybe we need to wait for this month to see the market will rise, and we still have time to buy more coins if we want. The crypto market itself will not be like this forever because there will always come back time for the crypto and repeat the history.
9724  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you use betting tips? on: January 02, 2020, 07:37:00 AM
I don't use betting tips, I prefer to follow my own judgment and I enjoy doing it all the time. I don't plan to rely on the tips that's why I don't use it.
i did couple of times but it didnt work so i stop and just go with a flow,actually i love playing in real gambling with friends or neighbors than in casino or in online betting,because i love seeing the reactions of my opponents than waiting for computer outcome.
It is natural since it is not gonna work all the time. It's better that you stop since you are just wasting your time and the opportunity to give yourself a chance to enjoy analyzing the game.
Betting tips are just there to make fool and that too new gambler. New gamblers are the ones who are so full of beans for winning bets that they get trapped by the fancy stories of betting tips sites and start paying them. those who have spent sometime in this field soon starts realizing that these tips are not working great at all and the only to enjoy the game is by relying on your own guts.
Yes, the new gambler will not think more about that. They only think about how they can get the win with the tips. Maybe they forgot that to win the gambling games, and they need luck. That is the only thing that they should aware of. But for the new gambler who can think more, they will not use the tips, but they will make their strategy and try one by one of the strategies.
9725  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you feel more lucky than usual when it's New Year's. on: January 02, 2020, 06:24:15 AM
When it is new year I fear much more than the normal days. This is all because of a thinking if I start losing, the whole year will be bad for me. This seems to be something a natural feeling every common gambler have in their mind. Very few overcome this and spend experiencing success during the starting days of the year.
So you need to be careful if you want to gamble, and you can use little money to gamble. You don't have to pretend that you have huge money because that will make you forget what you have. You can take a break for a while from gambling in this new year because that can refresh your mind to think about the other thing that can help you to avoid gambling for a while.
9726  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Social experiments in the world of gambling on: January 02, 2020, 05:21:45 AM
If someone bet and he suffers a big loss and then goes here to ask a little help from you, are you willing to give him help?
Have you ever experienced something like that, how do you deal with this loss?

Never in a situation , I would help a stranger with money to support his gambling habits but if it is anything except finances , I would be happy to put forth my opinion and exerience to help him with the same .
If we help a stranger with our money to support his habit of gambling, then we will not have a chance to get the money back. We don't have to help him if he will use that money to gamble because that will not help him to solve his problem. But if he needs money to buy food, then yes, we can help him because it's about humanity.
9727  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have You Counted Or Estimate All Your Losses And.... on: January 02, 2020, 04:17:02 AM
I'm no longer counting, I'm just setting my bankroll for the day I'm going to start tomorrow when it's gone.  We're not talking about a lot of money here, I'm just having fun so it's certainly not a lot of money. My range is from 100 to 500 usd a week, but losing 500 usd is already too much because I'm not hitting, and we're not just talking about losses here as sometimes when my luck hits I might win even more than 500 usd a week, so what I'm doing is just a juggling task.

If you lose $100 in a day, that will be too big money to spend on gambling. But if your money to be used in gambling is $100 for a week, then I think that is enough because at least, in a day, you spend something about $15, and if you play gambling every day, then $100 is enough. But I do not recommend to play gambling every day because that can attract you to become addicting to gambling in a long time. Maybe you can reduce the money for at least $50-$75, and don't gamble every day so you can prevent from the addicting.
9728  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How Much Money You Need To Win To Stop gambling, Is This Possible. on: January 02, 2020, 03:14:53 AM
I also have a monthly target, if I get more jackpots than I expect, or have covered the target for a full year. I will reduce my concentration but will not just stop because gambling is my hobby. Increasing the odds is one of my other thoughts, but it still has to hold on to managing strategies where the reserve capital must be greater than what is played.
but gradually you will continue to bet when the money you already have is still there, because the gambling game that you do is a hobby that you have. someone who cannot leave gambling and only plays for fun tends to always bet when he still has money and no matter how many bets he will make.
I am not sure that he can get more jackpots because that will depend on his luck. If he doesn't have luck, it is not possible to win the jackpot because the jackpot is for the luckiest person at the right time. Besides that, it is not good if he uses gambling as his hobby as we know that if we have one hobby, we can be too serious with the hobby. You can forget anything in your life, and the big impact that you will get is losing the money in a big amount.
9729  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Hold on to patience even when it feels like wearing off on: December 31, 2019, 02:10:30 PM
2020 hasn't been a good year for altcoin holders. But this will not last forever. And altcoin prices will rise again. It's just impossible for me to predict when this will happen. I will continue to wait patiently until then.

I guess your mean we are in 2019 and not 2020, right? Grin

This year is not a good year for altcoin holders, yes that is true. But for the bitcoin price, we have a good time to see the price has reversed to a higher rate after reaching the lowest price at $3000 and now we are at $7200 price level. I am sure that in the next year, we will break another higher price so we can see both bitcoin and altcoin will rise together, and that can help us to make a big profit again. So we need to hold on the coins and be patient to wait for that bull run to coming again.
9730  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Altcoin Bleeding on: December 31, 2019, 10:48:30 AM
to reduce the risk I think we should streamline the target. Maximum investment in the top 10 ranking, so that with the downtrend situation like now we can still calm in dealing with it. if we are still in doubt, we can focus on investing in bitcoin
What you said has been done for a long time by investors in the past, because investors who are experienced in crypto will certainly only choose the top 10 altcoins to invest, they do it for the sake of seeking profits and minimizing losses.

Besides choosing the top 10 altcoins, they will search the new opportunity from the next coins list, so if they can find the next potential coins, they will buy that coin and hold it among the other coins. It will help them make a profit in the future, and with many coins in their wallet, they are ready to sell at the highest price at once. I am sure that now, the investors already invest in the potential coins with a large amount of each coin so they can recover they're lost in the past while they will make another profit too.
9731  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Help in Trading on: December 31, 2019, 09:57:20 AM
That two things can prevent you from being greedy to chase a bigger profit. If you can determine how much percentage of your profit, you will close your trading when you can reach your target price sell, so no matter if the price increase or decrease, you will make a profit. I agree that we need to make a profit, that is the important thing, and if we can do it over and over, I am sure that the profit will come to the bigger money.

Every trade has some time after they get frustrated but in order to trade it is necessary to give time for learning also agree with you that everyone wants to make a lot of profit so they can't do well. We do not value learning in most cases, we want us to do much better.
If a person gets frustrated he/she can probably out of his/her and can't even think for the best thing to do. Apparently, it makes them paralyze even though he/she has learned a lot but they probably just ignoring it. Only they could realize once it has done and lost their trades. If that is his/her personality, nothing will happen and they are making it worse.
I think that a person confuses to know what he needs to learn so he cannot take the right lesson. Besides that, they don't learn from the mistake, and they make another mistake over and over. That makes them cannot get the lesson from the mistake. If they can analyze the mistake to find the problem, I am sure that they can solve the problem, so when they trade, they don't make another mistake, and even they will make a profit from trading.
9732  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will XRP repeat last 2017 bull run? on: December 31, 2019, 08:53:43 AM
No doubt Ripple is a gem in crypto and they have such big partners! Even a few days ago they got a huge fund from a partner again! But Ripple can't go alone, I believe all these coins are dependent on Bitcoin! So, if Bitcoin price sees a bull run like 2017, then why not for Ripple? I hope Ripple will hit 5$ this time!
Agree with you, if want XRP to break ATH 2017, BTC must first go up and pass 20k USD. Because this whole market is dependent on BTC and if BTC keeps going down like it is now, I doubt that XRP and all altcoins in this market will never repeat ATH again.
Bitcoin will go up and pass $20k, and I am sure about that. But for XRP, I am not sure if the price can repeat the same highest price again unless if there is a big pump for XRP. If that happens, XRP price will have an easy way to increase the price so the price will be back to the higher price. But the problem is, we don't know if the price will stay at that price because we know that in the crypto, everything can be possible.
9733  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have You Counted Or Estimate All Your Losses And.... on: December 31, 2019, 06:12:20 AM
We should prevent that stress that can come in any situation even if we calculate our losses, we can think about how we can get the winning. At that time, if we can win the games, we can feel greedy, and we can remember the losses, so that will attract us to play more and more without thinking about how if we get another loss. If we are trying to recover the losses, we will feel difficult because gambling is not an easy way to win the games.
If one has proper plans about recovering losses through gambling and has good control over greed and stress, there are many ways through which he can regain whatever he has lost in gambling. He can change the type of gambling he was into. For instance can shift to paroli from martingale or can shift to sports betting from dice games etc because in latter ones, the chances of making money are greater. One shall use them in gambling for making money.
I don't think that he can recover his losses in gambling because I am sure that it will be too difficult to do. We know that if we want to win, we need to have luck, and if you're going to recover the losses, you also need luck too. Changing from paroli to martingale can be a good reason to check or try if we have luck or not, and if we still don't have luck, then maybe we need to stop for a while from playing gambling. But that will not guarantee you to win the games. I would suggest him to try gamble in sports betting because he can have a good chance to win if he can collect the right information.
9734  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Purposes to play gambling, except being rich on: December 31, 2019, 05:17:13 AM
Some of the answers I’ve heard before
- Win money
- Just for fun
- To escape from daily life
- To change mood
- Train math skills

Many people are playing gambling because of that purpose, but they cannot win money if they don't have luck. Maybe they need to consider to play gambling just for fun only and don't think about winning the gambling games. I am not sure that gambling can be a way to escape from daily life because I am sure that we can find the other things to do that, and we can get the benefits. But in gambling, you could only get bad benefits, which is you will only lose your money in a short time and a long time.
9735  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: A new place to Trade crypto on: December 29, 2019, 09:16:56 AM
I think okex is not a new exchange, but that exchange is not too popular as binance, bittrex, poloniex, kucoin, hitbtc. Maybe okex are trying to maintain their exchange so they can get more members that will trade on their site. If they can get more members, their site will grow, they can increase the daily volume so they can compete with the other exchange. But I guess okex needs more time to increase the volume, and if they cannot get more members, they cannot grow their site.
9736  Economy / Speculation / Re: What's going on? on: December 29, 2019, 08:25:55 AM
What's going on with the market as everyday you can see a quick pump or dump which was not the case until last one month? I thought it's done by whales but I don't think they will do it so often. Who is creating these fluctuations and where will this lead us? Bull run or bear market?

I think it's not only the whales that do all this so that market prices tend to always decline, there is a decline in market prices at this time due to the many activities of people who make sales and consequently the market prices continue to decline

I think that is because people read so much news about cryptocurrency, and some of that news is saying bad things about cryptocurrency, so some people panic and they want to save their money before it's too late. The market will be back to the higher price, no need to worry about that, and now, we can continue to buy more coins to be added in our portfolio. But remember, the market can go to any price so you should make another strategy to avoid the bad things that can happen later.
9737  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: too many exchanges and will increase in the future, what do you guys think about on: December 28, 2019, 12:42:19 PM
we are almost at the end of the year, and the problem remains the same... too many exchanges for the available volume, too many people trying to scam others throught an supposed new exchange, too many similar products...
this is another boom, just like all the other ones before... a fashion in getting peoples money
Then you don't have to register on the other exchange if you already have your favorite exchange so you don't have to confuse in where you will trade. By using one or two exchanges to trade will be enough for you to make a profit, but if you want to use more than 2 exchanges, then you need to search which exchange that is fit what you want. But be careful, many exchanges require you to completed KYC, so if you don't want to send any document, you should find the other exchanges.
9738  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Government Taxing Bitcoin? Here's the Answer on: December 28, 2019, 11:40:30 AM
To be honest, I don't know how the government applies tax for bitcoin, but I am sure that they can do that because they will know people who already use crypto by checking on the bank account. They will search for the account who made a big transaction in a month, and I think they will try to ask that people about the money they sent. But maybe that will be related to the KYC that every exchange did for their members so the government can check one by one of the members so they can get the name of the people.
9739  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What if Bitcoin never reaches a new ATH? on: December 28, 2019, 09:05:35 AM
I think that will not be a problem if bitcoin never reaches a new ATH, we still have many times to wait for the price to increase. Even if the price is turn around at $7000-$10k, people will accept the situations because they cannot push the price increase higher. But I am sure that many people are waiting for bitcoin to reach the new ATH because bitcoin halving will happen in the next years. So they are prepared from now by buying bitcoin at a price now.
9740  Economy / Speculation / Re: When is the perfect time to sell BTC? on: December 28, 2019, 08:16:55 AM
the best time to sell Bitcoin is when you need it or when Bitcoin has reached the target price you are aiming for, IMO
right now I HODL several hundred thousand Satoshi that I bought when the price of Bitcoin was at $ 8k, I'm targeting to sell it if Bitcoin is at $ 16k.
I guess we will sell the bitcoin at any price in the market, especially when we need money. But although we sell bitcoin when we need money, we still trying to hold the other bitcoin because we want to sell the bitcoin when the price increase so high. If you're going to sell at $16k, you need to be patient for a while, and maybe you need to wait until the next year to see bitcoin will hit that price. This day, the bitcoin price finally increases, and we see that the price reaches $7307, so we can hope that in the next week, there is something change in the bitcoin market.
