I expect an increase in the price again although I don't have much information about what will happen with the market. The price itself can get down at any time, but the price still has an opportunity to increase higher. As I see that the price has a good trend to go up more than now but however, the price is getting difficult to increase. We could hope that a few days later, the situation will change, so it will push the price to reach a higher rate. The market now seems to be sideways, and the price will move to any range of prices.

Well if you aren't careful enough with your assets or belongings then surely you will lose it from thieves, with this very crowded it is not impossible that thieves or probably tricksters are present and with all the crowd it is very hard to spot them because they can blend in pretty well. In my experience, I find crowded casinos very stressful and I can't really focus on what i'm doing because I have to think about something else, thus, I will not play in casinos that are too crowded.

Maybe you can use VIP room to gamble because, in that room, you will not hear the crowded in out there. You can focus on gambling in any game, and that will give you a comfortable situation. I admitted that to gamble in the crowded casinos is too stressful, although I don't have those experiences. I have that experience to see crowded people in the mall, in the station or the local market. I can feel the same as you and I cannot imagine if I were in crowded places.
9983  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What will be the Faith of Casino business owners? on: October 29, 2019, 05:39:50 AM
I think Bangladesh is an Islamic country so gambling is basically haram in their religion so making them as illegal activity in their country is not an surprising so if there is any active gambling site or company then its better to somewhere where is is more welcomed.
but i was just thinking that since Bangladesh is a Muslim country and you have mentioned that it is Haram means prohibited,but why it took them this far to make a law being gambling as illegal?sorry but it confuses me because in other countries like middle east where gambling was banned eversince .and why in their case the banning was being tackled just by now.sorry if i missed something but this what i asked reading this thread and the answers

I think with the making of law that saying gambling is prohibited will make people have a strong mind to realize that besides in their religion, gambling is haram, their country is also saying that gambling is not permitted. People will not come to the casino or browse a gambling website.

That is normal to see the law about prohibiting gambling in some Muslim country. Even if their religion says that gambling is haram, that doesn't make people stay away from gambling. There will be people who still come to gambling places, or even they will gamble with a secret.

Besides that, there will be a sanction to people who break the rule, and they will go to jail because of gambling.
9984  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [What IF] Part 3 on: October 29, 2019, 04:27:40 AM
I will search who is the winner by asking on the casino, and if I can find the winner, I will tell him that I want to give the jackpot to him. I don't want to use that money for myself because the money does not belong to me. But if the casino and I cannot found who is the real owner of the money, maybe I will give it to the charities, and I don't want to take that money. Maybe it looks naive, but I don't want to take other people that don't belong to me.
9985  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Holiday Season Card with QR code on: October 29, 2019, 03:04:12 AM
It's a great idea. When the holiday comes, people will come to other people including in your house, so if you can paste the QR code in the greeting card, people will curious, and they will ask you how you made that greetings card. Maybe it looks weird for them, but that could attract them to search for information about the barcode, and if they found about bitcoin, then I think they will ask some questions to you. Maybe you can give a note in the bottom of the QR code, and you can write "you need to download (the name of the app) to know about the barcode Grin
9986  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ICO and scammers on: October 29, 2019, 02:09:10 AM
Sometimes I see rules for staring "good" ICO and one of all paragraph - deanon of creators. But exist countries, in which crypticurrency has been banned and creators have a chance go to jail to 5+ years (examle, Ukraine (if project have a anonymous coin transfer/stablecoins)). If I dont write about myself, I am a scammer (thinked users of bitcointalk). If I write - Im will a convict. What to do?

In this matter, there is nothing you can do except introduce who you are, what you do on that project. People or investors already got scam by many projects, and they don't want to get the same things in the future. I guess the investors will find the project that has a real project, with real people who are serious about working for the project. Maybe the other way to this is you can try to get a team from another country who can explain the project, and he can claim that you are a dev and part of the team, and you are a very serious person who wants to do a project.

By doing that, I think soon or later, and you can get an angel investor who wants to invest in your project. You need to transparent to other people so they can see that you and your team are one group that works together in one project.
9987  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Altcoin's price is disappointing!!! on: October 28, 2019, 03:02:42 PM
Why Altcoin has not been priced where Bitcoin Stable has been in the same place for a long time.

The altcoin price should follow bitcoin price, that is the reason. No matter if bitcoin price rise so high, the altcoin will behind bitcoin and adjust the price to the new high price too. Some altcoins can increase so high and for example, ethereum, which is in number 2 at the CMC.
The ethereum itself can increase high in the future, but still, ethereum will be a secondary altcoin, and that will be the same as the other coin.
I think the presence of altcoin is to help bitcoin to grow as the bitcoin is the leading coin at the cryptocurrency.
9988  Economy / Economics / Re: Can Blockchain Bring change into Africa? on: October 28, 2019, 12:02:22 PM
The  nature of Africa was decentralization! Africa was unite and great until  colonial masters began to centralize  everything. Now  all the resources is control by the  western world.  Now that the world is changing and  blockchain is bring back  decentralization to the world would Africa get  their  power back?

I am not pretty sure but if we will going to think about it deeply, the main reason why africa will going to have a difficulty in adopting to cryptocurrency and the blockchain is because they somehow lack in resources that they can use to utilize cryptocurrency. In addition, spreading of news and updates to them will be hard in relation to the first reason. Maybe bitcoin and other cryptocurrency ATM will solve their problem.

It could happen if African people can think about their future and not just for a short time, but they also think about a long time. They can adopt cryptocurrency, and I am sure that they have resources that could help them to grow in using cryptocurrency. But that will depend on how they can accept cryptocurrency as a new thing because to have an open mind about something new will need a big effort to do. Besides that, they need to have a good motivator that can help them realize the potency that they have to change their life to a better life.
9989  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: When Inviting Do Away With The Investment Part First on: October 28, 2019, 10:42:09 AM
If you are going to successfully invite people to look at Cryptocurrency, you should Do Away With The Investment Part First
the first thing is to explain how it was created and the creator's idea, why it was created and what are the benefits
if you make the investment part first chances are people will look at it as a Ponzi Scheme and they will shun it.

Yes, that is what we need to do if we want to explain it to new people. But we also need to tell the volatility of the price to them because they need to know, so they don't have to worry and confuse to see the price will always change every day. I think some people can accept that bitcoin investment will work in a long time, and they don't think about the Ponzi Scheme if they realize that whatever it called investment, they need to have patience.
9990  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling as a profession: there's people who live out of gambling? on: October 28, 2019, 09:41:33 AM
For me, living a life through gambling isn't possible. But it depends upon the platform where gamblers bet. Mostly a trick can be catch by those gamblers that is too observant on the other hand, there are those gambling platforms that have a really fair systems. But for a person to trust his life with a 50/50 chance isn't good. they still need another income if bad fate happens.

I think for people who cannot gamble with the right will feel the same. They will not believe that making a living from gambling is possible because they cannot win many times in gambling. Besides that, they will prefer to do another thing that will give them money than doing gambling. Maybe they gamble but not using gambling as their source income because they know that if they do that, they will lose all the money before they can win.
9991  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Donating the Gambling profits on: October 28, 2019, 06:28:32 AM
Have you ever thought of donating the gambling profits to a charitable cause ?  Sometime people won a big lottery or very high amount of money from betting & gambling games.  Do you ever thought of being generous and helping the poor with this money ?

Have never win big to really donate some, but why not. If I win a lottery one day, I would first like to get my life on track, give some to my parents , help my brother with his studies and then if i am left with any, I wont mind donating it for a charitable cause. Good deeds never hurts and also gets back your good karma !

Yeah, that is what we need to do if we can win a lottery and hit the jackpot. We should use that money for the closest person in our family and then we can give the money to other people who needed. I agree that if we do a good thing, it will be back to us for a good thing too so that it will help our life indirectly. Donating some money to charities will give you a good thing in the future, so you can hope that what you give will back to you in the future.
9992  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What's worse: cigar addiction or gambling addiction on: October 28, 2019, 04:22:02 AM
when i was still active or in gambling and addicted in cigarettes ,these comparison does not exist in my mind but not until i quit smoking when i realized how bad it is in my body,the first month i stopped smoking my body starts recovering and coughing leaves me for good,same when i control my gambling habits that i only played once a week and sometimes once a month.my pocket never lose money and so my life changed.

i say this for us to realized that there is many things to enjoy in life than these vices.but if there's one thing to choose i prefer gambling but with moderation

That is what we should learn and know that we can get a better life if we decide to stop cigar and gambling addiction. It's not easy, but at least we can try for our good, so we can change our life to be better than before. We need to build a new habit so we can distract our mind not to think about cigar and gambling. Both cigar and gambling can ruin our life without takes any longer, and if we realize that, we should take care of ourselves to change the bad habit into a good habit.
9993  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: From financial debt to financial stability- thanks to bitcoin on: October 28, 2019, 03:12:05 AM
All I'm hearing is don't have children. Children cost money. This is why I will never have a child.... -_-

Anyway...
Bitcoin saved me too. I mean I still have to work and make ends meet but it has enabled me to do all sorts of different jobs which now support crypto payments and not just Paypal. I am pleased about that. My biggest issue about working online was how I would be paid. It also opened windows for varies earning opportunities.
Where is it that you live? What kind of house do you own for $14k? I am very interested now. What are some other living costs there? What are you currently doing?
Please reply.

Well, having a children is indeed costly, but it will be your motivation to work harder and to find more opportunity to earn more, it is not that they are your obligation, but it is because you love them and you wanted to provide everything you can for them, but of course, if you are not ready yet, then you don't need to be in a hurry.

For me, thanks to Bitcoin, I can provide my family needs and wants.

That well said. Having children can boost our spirit to work hard for our children because we want to make sure that they can eat and get what they need for their life. We can get more support from our family to get a better life so we can give many things to our beloved family.

Bitcoin gives many good things to people, especially in making money and have a new source of income. I am sure many people are saved by bitcoin, and they still working on many things to earn more bitcoin so they can sell bitcoin at the highest price.
9994  Economy / Speculation / Re: Don't react to the fluctuations on: October 28, 2019, 02:15:39 AM
People are panic because they think that if they don't buy with instant, they will not have a chance to make a profit. They tend to buy at a price now without thinking about if the price will be down or up later. When there is a green candle appear in the market, people are ready to buy with a lot of money.

But later, if the price cannot increase higher than the price they bought and they see the price is dump so hard, that makes them disappointed because they buy at the high price. And if that already happens, they could only wait to see another chance to sell at a high price.
9995  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does the discipline help in gambling? on: October 26, 2019, 11:28:39 AM
Very helpful. sometimes if we are not disciplined, we will make a loss. the main thing that makes it happen is our greed to get a big win so that sometimes we are not concerned with plans that are made for gambling. but if someone comes in just a game, in my opinion it will not be mandatory if he is disciplined or not

If that is only disciplined, I don't think that will work because we need more than discipline in the gambling games. We need to control ourselves and control our greed too because, in gambling, we cannot win many times. If we can win, that is because we have luck in that game, so it helps us to win some money. Discipline and controlling ourselves will give the best way to prevent the loss, and maybe we can have fun in the game.
9996  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Problem gamblers what can we do to help them help theirselves? on: October 26, 2019, 06:04:42 AM
And you think your moderated thread can help them? Compulsive gamblers have mental disorders already. Their families, relatives and friends should help them to get therapies and medications. This is not an easy illness and needs real help.   

Without help from their families, relatives, and friends, they cannot solve their problems. They will get into deeper into gambling without having a chance to solve the mental disorders. We cannot help them if they don't have a will by themselves. Besides that, it is difficult to ask someone to go to therapies and get medications because I already face my uncle, who doesn't want to go to the doctor. I think that is the same as what gamblers experiencing too.
9997  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Some essential trading rules beginners! on: October 26, 2019, 04:11:26 AM
That list will be a good guide for new people who want to start trading. They need to know about that so they can prevent the losses, although the losses can come to them at any time. At least, new people will have some guide on how to control themselves in trading and what should they do and don't related to trading. But the important thing here is how much they can use their money in trading and only use the money you can afford to lose. Don't go all-in if the market is not good for trade.
9998  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Altcoin Speculation Already Here? on: October 25, 2019, 12:52:19 PM
Altcoins are not moving at all whatever happens. BTC is raising, altcoins are on the same point, or even falling. BTC is falling, the whole market crashes and altcoins are falling even deeper. I cannot even imagine what should happen to push alts forward.

Some altcoin is falling, but the other altcoin still trying to stay the price now, and some other altcoins are trying to break the higher rate. You can see that there are many altcoins are at the green candle after it was down yesterday, and many of the altcoins still struggle to get more attention from the traders. We will see another increase in the altcoin in the next week, and I hope that will give time to the altcoin to rise higher. Bitcoin itself is also trying to increase after the down, and we can expect that the domination of bitcoin will be back usual.
9999  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin for the World and Community on: October 25, 2019, 11:36:16 AM
I see now the world has changed from the last 10 years ago. In the last 10 years ago, I see the world is not too busy like today. Many things have invented, including bitcoin, which can help people from all countries. The presence of bitcoin will also help the system and fix the financial problem, and that will give a chance for people to make money from the internet.

Maybe we cannot help poor people using bitcoin, but we can help them with the money which we get from bitcoin. Right now, bitcoin can be used for trading, and payment and bitcoin will reach the other aspect, which we don't know and need to find out. Bitcoin will be bigger and higher in the future, and bitcoin will help more people again.
10000  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will You Support Or Have You Supported A Coin That Makes A Comeback on: October 25, 2019, 10:02:29 AM
My answer will be, don't know. Maybe I will observe first after the coin makes a comeback because I want to see what they can offer now to people. And if the project has made a new plan and strategy and the team has begun to make changes to the project, maybe I will try to invest with a small amount and give my support. But that will depend on the market situations because if they come back, it will difficult to reach trust from the traders then. If they can prove that they can make a better than before, I think many people will support the project.
