With the information I gathered about cryptocurrency, I had interest and decided to buy some coins.
Being fully aware of the volatility of these coins, I was patient and did not panic as their were various degrees of ups and down and was told that this year is the best time to invest in crytocurrency due to the bitcoin halving which has taken place. I have been watching my coins dropping everyday in value thereby inducing fear in me as the value of what I invested has been on the continuous decline.
I do not know how soon they will begin to rise again.

I am a researcher at a popular broking company, I will try to provide some good information with you regarding the current market situation in our discord server.

In short :
By buying now you will have very good profit in the coming months but you should have the cashflow and emotional strength to go through dips.

If you want to buy alts now, the best strategy is to begin a DCA until Mid-end of June.

Quick Note to be more precise : from my Point Of View, we have a little bounce to fill BPR and breaker and then we might have another leg down.

I guess you mean you "lost" more than $2000 in futures trading. Uh, that's bad. You must have felt horrible losing that kind of amount.
$2000 is a not a small amount to lose but it's good that you learn your lession and improvised later.
Making more than $1000 just from $5 is really very impressive but at the same time it's hard to belive to be honest.
Anyway, the lesson here is to learn as much as you can and keep improvising and learning from mistakes.

I was gambling today online since their is strike no work, so decided to take all my day to place a bet and this thought comes to my mind. That is it how the jobless men do gamble all day with the little money they've, because this is insane to me but to those people who gamble as the means of their income it's terrible. I rememberd a friend of mine back in the days in school all he does was to gamble all day not going to class, and the gambling favors him alot any time he comes to the hostels he do comes back with a big bag of foods. But that was back then his parents was sending him money, but right now with the economy situation in some countries someone will haven a little money meanwhile he/she have gone alot stress to get the money and he/she will tries to increase the money by gambling. Everyday he/she continues like this hmmm it's bad.

I said let me express my feelings towards this to forum gambling discussion, if their are people who are living in this kind of lifestyle. And what will be your opinion towards the people living in this kind of lifestyle everyday of their life's?

That is true.

One thing I've in my life is to pay debts. Whether they're the old ones or those new ones. As long as you remember them and you didn't intend to default and run away from the person you've borrowed to, you have to pay your obligation.

Those people that have borrowed money from me and never paid at forgotten even telling hi or hello to me and talk about their debt, they always have a shortcoming.

I don't know but that's probably how fair life is for those that are taken advantaged to.

I have seen new investors being carried out by seeing the success of big bitcoin investors. But , this is wrong approach in my opinion. Because, I personally feel that most of the people fail and they will never share their story. So, most of the stories that new guy searches , he will find only good success stories. But that is not correct overall picture. One should keep the limitations of crypto in mind as well. What is your opinion about this ?

Holding Bitcoin can also be a good choice, but my advice is to keep taking advantage of altcoins from time to time or else it is possible that as you have lost in other coins, if the Bitcoin goes down, you may also lose in it. I don't know in which coins you invested and in which coins you faced losses but there are many good alternative coins in the market from which you can make a good profit such as ETH, BNB, SOL, GALA, GNO, etc.

I also faced many losses many times because I am a human being and it is not possible to win all the time, there are losses and wins with human beings, the only important thing is that human beings learn from their mistakes and move on. Loss Avoidance I covered my losses by choosing good coins in trading.
So I hope you will cover your losses soon and avoid further losses in the future.

Gambling is not bad it is a way to keep yourself happy.  However, after losing gambling, many people re-invest money in gambling to recover their previous losses and panic even more when they lose again, which causes them to suffer further losses.  For this reason, when the budget is exhausted after losing in gambling, one should stop gambling and give up the hope of getting that money back, then gamble again with a long gap and place the amount of bet that is easy to accept the loss.

If you want to buy BTC, it's best to do it now, don't think about the issue of the increase because BTC will automatically rise when the time comes, unless you buy something other than BTC. Yes, you have to diligently look at the BTC price, if it shows a decrease, prepare a stop loss immediately, otherwise the decline will continue and the value of your assets will fall too. just my experience.

So last night somebody launched a Solana Memecoin on Pump Fun called WIF (meant to be a second chance for those who missed the original $WIF (DogWifHat ath of $4.88BN mc) 🙃The dev airdropped 25% to the original WIF dev, who did the right thing by burning majority. The token then skyrocketed t $10 Million MC in a few hours before it came crashing all the way down to $1 Million. 😂😅 People have been looking for a second chance, but are scared to have conviction. There is only one true $WIF derivative, that is $FIW. Confirmed with blockchain data that it was in fact deployed by $WIF dev and left as as easter egg for degens to find. #FIW is the inverse $WIF and stands for 777F**IluminatiWorldwide. It grew from as easter egg meme coin to a movement; A symbol of the fight of degens against corpos. An extract from their Manifesto Reads: "With $FIW, we can fight back against the establishment and unleash a new era of freedom and prosperity for all. They can halt the trading of our stocks and crash the markets at will, destroy the housing marketing with no consequences but they CANNOT stop Decentralized crypto!" . This narrative fits nicely with what's happening with Robinhood halthing trading on $GME again. OG's of CT are holding the floor with a possibility for CEX listings in the near future. $FIW has received support from many notable figures and currently broke out after WIF2's failure. With the OG $WIF at $3.3 bn MC, it is very plausible that its inverse could do $1 bn MC, which would be a 1000x ROI from this point. I have showed you the door now DYOR. GOODLUCK DEGENS 

At this point you are the creator and beneficiary of this token, what will you do?

Given benefits of doubt to those gamblers who says gambling is a game of entertainment which they only gambles for fun and those who prioritize gambling to make profits, do you think those who claims gambling for funs can ignore or resist any given cheating opportunity to secure winning knowing that it could multiply their stakes in returns? Because if they can not, then absolutely they don't game for fun but for profit interests.

Then I would say all gamblers have the same goals of betting to make profit rather their volume of desires differs where there are desperate and contented gamblers

So if you are one of the specified fun gamblers, can you resist cheating opportunity and just rely your winning on your own ability?

Mind you: Cheating is cheating on whichever way as long you sources your winning outside your ability

I'm sure not all traders will agree with me but some could possibly be on my side...

Here are the reasons why;
 1. It is quite stressful - old traders will soon give up due to mental health problems
 2. It is not enjoyable anymore - nobody will stay long in a job that they no longer find themselves comfortable with especially if you are not earning well.
      Most of the time we feel this during bear season.
 3. Trust issue due to Scam growth - traders never find it safe to use exchanges, even big exchanges.

As for those who have taken risk in making investment on NOTcoin, they should be smiling by now because it has given then enough reason to do so, the market pumped well as expected and if they are going to be more wise in their decision making concerning this coin, they had better sell now to reload on making another investment by buying the dip and hold, because the market can fall at anything, if bitcoin should fall, then expect more of it from NOTcoin, we should not hold it for too long.

yes, that's right, with those who are rich, of course they have enough money to gamble and they probably won't worry when their gambling ends in defeat because they still have enough money to survive and still be able to meet their basic needs, what is unnatural is when they force themselves and their needs are not met and this happens when they are addicted to gambling. and that will happen when they can't control themselves even though they have enough money, of course the chance of them becoming addicted is still there and it's just as likely as those who don't have enough money if they can't control themselves well.
It's true what you say, they will experience financial problems and it will affect their good relationships where these financial problems occur because they are addicted to gambling. and yes, when this bad thing happens it will have an impact on disputes or fights between each other which can lead to divorce and this bad thing can happen when they pay less attention to their family members because they only prioritize gambling.

What you said in your post dunfida sounds pretty smart, except I am not exactly what you are talking about.

- especially, what is crypto?  Is crypto somehow related to bitcoin?

If  you were meaning to talk about bitcoin which is the topic of this section of the forum and also this thread, then why did you not use the word bitcoin in any one place in your whole post?  Do you know what is bitcoin?

Were you trying to sound smart by using that vague word (crypto) that is also potentially misleading?  Is there some kind of place that I could invest into "Crypto" that will lead to me hoping that "crypto" reaches $100k?

There are a lot of insurances around but choosing the right insurance is our main task.  We need insurance because we may not always have the ability to deal with any problems we may face at any time and at that time insurance will support us very well.  Life insurance, health insurance, home insurance are among the many essential insurances.  So should stay with them

The transparency of Bitcoin transactions, due to the blockchain, ensures that all movements of the currency are unique and verifiable, reducing the risk of fraud in systems. Regulatory bodies and financial institutions are increasingly encouraging and merging Bitcoin into their systems, indicating how reliable  and potential for legitimate use in the business .

Bitcoin is reliable for easy transaction, it is a system way of saving, it is transparent in trading.
Due to its unique financial stability companies are happy to use it in the legitimate ecosystem due to its legal rights in the country.

Yeah you are right.
One thing i will say is there will always be regrets in this crypto space because of the volatility attached to it. You might be regretting why you sold early because the price went up significantly above where you sold or you might be regretting another time why you didn’t sale because the price started dumping, these two are part of the space. But the best regret is always that doesn’t make you to be in loss that’s selling with a profit. How do one over come this i will say don’t fix a time to take profit rather fix a price to take profit.

If a coin gets to a price where you can take 75% holdings including some profit and maybe the invested amount too then take them. Don’t sometimes be too greedy for a high pump that you leave your coins most especially if it is Altcoins. Although the most important thing is to invest in what you can afford to lose so that there won’t be any regrets regardless of the decision made. Hodl bitcoin for long, take profit when necessary and you wouldn’t be in regret

I've had winning and losing streaks. When you're frustrated or going with the flow, its simple to blame luck for unexpected wins. Emotions can cloud judgment. When depressed, we may take higher chances that pay off. We may overthink our decisions and miss opportunities when we're focused on winning.

Gambling is more than luck. Psychology, strategy, and game knowledge are involved. Luck helps, but its not everything. Though fortuitous wins are nice, dont let them detract from the overall picture.
