541  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Your Lucky moments during gambling? on: December 04, 2017, 09:06:56 AM
My luckiest moment during gambling is when I play in a lottery though its not big amount as everyone has but it really helps a lot during that time because I'm still a student. Actually, I just bet once in a blue moon that I bet just when I feel to bet. During that time I just try if I can win P4500 for just P10 ticket.
When tomorrow comes, I didn't know that time I won the lottery but unexpectedly I ask my schoolmate that always loves to bet and he said the combination number and I was shocked that I won. When I claim the price money I pay some of my tuition fee and give some of my money to my parents. I would say only the fortune can tell if you are lucky enough.

The person who is gambling with loaned amount indeed indicates that they are an addictive gambler. I personally don't think they will be successful in their gamble since they carry a big responsibility that affects their greediness and emotion so that they will fail and get a more significant problem.

Not also addictive gambler but also problem gambler. Losing on gambling is really bad and with debt on it will make it worst. The person can easily go suicide if this happened, because they have nothing left. The sad is there are many people like this, using debt on gambling and hope they can win to payback the debt.
Yes, it oftenly happens if a person is already addicted in gambling, much more if his capital is compromise and he continue back to play for his loses and the tendency is he was burry in debt just aiming to win back. So to avoid this situation then we should always put a limit or control in gambling and think always that gambling should not be our first priority.

For some people, gambling provides a temporary respite from their problems so they make ways to keep on gambling. Imagine for example, you're depressed and gambling is one of the things that can comfort you but you don't have money. Ita normal that these people do something and go as far as even stealing just to fund their gambling
Everyone of us has our own way of coping and dealing with our problems so if someone prefer to do gambling just to divert or forget whatever they are going then we can't really tell that person not to do gambling. I think the best advice we can give them is try not to get addicted in gambling, I guess if the sole purpose of gambling is just for fun then getting addicted in gambling will not be that problem.

Oh yeah, even how many people hear there different advices it will still end up on your own decision. Gambling is game that might ruin your financial aspects that will can have more debts and loan everywhere in order to survived the daily needs. Being addicted in gambling is not easily to cure, if you can't control anymore much better let yourself go to rehabilitation in order to cure enough. Lastly, if you don't want to ruin your financial just stop gamble or else it will end up a misery status of your life.
543  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Should I try to win back my loss? on: December 03, 2017, 01:15:11 PM
I have around 500 000 bets placed on FJ
It was a matter of time when this would happen ( placed a lot of bets on not Martingale, so it already happened a lot of times, just not with Martingale)

I got 16 losses in a row
Starting with bet 0.000001BTC
And last bet was 0.03BTC
Counting a 0.06BTC loss total



Now, my question is, should I try to win it back?

I have a total bank of around 1.6BTC on my disposal

Odds of me losing those 16 bets in a row were 0.00179%
Somewhere around 1 to 60 000

Now, if I place a 0.06BTC there's a 50.5% chance I'll lose
If I lose, I place a 0.12BTC bet,  0.505*0.505= 25.5% chance I'll lose
If I lose, I place a 0.24BTC bet, 0,255025*0,505= 12.88% chance
If I lose, I place a 0.48BTC bet, 0,128787625*0,505= 6.5% chance I'll lose

If I lose, I have a total loss of 0.48+0.24+0.12+0.06 (+0.03) = 0.9BTC (+0.03)

Is it worth it?
Should I cut my losses o.o

Odds of me losing 20 bets in a row should be 1 : 860 000
Which, with me having 500k bets, doesn't sound very good

Will,in my own  experience  in times i lost in poker or any kind of gambling games,i want to  win back my loss, because i have a motive  in my life that a winner never quits and  a quitter never win,because how can you gain winning if time you loss you surrender early.every time in our life is like a gamble  in order to success we must learn to survive to achieve our goal and that is the winning everytime, when we enter in gambling site games.

Basically, it also my own point of thinking to win back all my lose. Having several loses in gambling your pride will affected and cahllenge to play again ,aiming to win back all your loses. Somehow we cannot control our emotions that in the end will ruin our financial aspects. Control and self discipline to ourselves in order to avoid too much loses because on that time its not your luck. Maybe, nextime is your luck since only our fortune can tell if we are lucky enough.
544  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Legit bitcoin mining company on: December 03, 2017, 12:08:27 PM
Im using Genesis Mining. I am satisfied with it. Payouts are daily and they are quick to get a hold of should you have any questions or issues.
With that being said, dont expect to make a quick buck. Im sitting at around 7-8 months

What are you use for mining?

Mining is a process that helps the bitcoin users to there different transactions that will recorded in the blockchain throughout the world since using a laptop is incapable all the transactions. A legit mining company as of this days, is rare to find but I know there have some legit bitcoin mining company but I don't think if it can give a good profitable output. Well, If you want to mine you must have a miner device  and you must aware on different factors like power consumptions, location of your place if the internet connections is strong enough for the mining operation.

If you are good and always online, always post, read, long patient and you join a campaign so you can make more money so you can buy a car if you have that.
But i do not think there are car dealer accepting bitcoin as mode of payment even bitcoin is already legal in one country it always depend on the owner or a dealer if they will be adopt block chain in their business.
Yes having multiple source of bitcoin will gives you good profit and the idea of buyong car is good as one of your assets provide by bitcoin the best thing for now is to exchange your bitcoin to fiat before purchasing your new car.

I would say, buying car with bitcoin is rare to find. Only countries does legalized bitcoin and implemented as there mode of payments. Having a bitcoin as much as many bitcoin could buy a car what you want but since it is hard to find a store, much better to convert it to fiats to the desired amount of car what you want.
Also, the wish you want to buy a car using bitcoin will implemented , many stores will follow and makes everyone happy to become comfortable and easier transaction mode of payment.

Of course there are many facilities to get bitcoin, fauchet, freebitcoin, although sometimes scam, or you can also trade.
mining is just one of the many ways to get bitcoin, through forums you can also get bitcoin.

You're right dude, it doesn't mean if you don't mined you can't get some bitcoins actually there are many websites which serve as a faucet of bitcoin though its value is not as much high but still you can have. Also, joining some bounty campaigns like, signature campaign, Facebook campaign and Twitter campaign that some of bounty campaign give directly a bitcoin but most bounty campaign will give tokens. Tokens can become a bitcoin but it is process when you want to trade which you will wait if its value is good enough to have profit.
547  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can maths help you win in gambling ? on: December 02, 2017, 10:47:57 AM
Indeed for gambling we have lots of confusion in it, because it is in gambling we also sometimes confused as to whether that was done right or wrong. But indeed to be able to get many of the advantages we also need calculations i.e. math, because every gambling also have the techniques or strategies so that they can get the victory. If it does not we do or we just let go about what we do, then the results will be obtained as just an unfortunate thing.
The fact is that in most cases, those people who play gambling and who met me, are not more than lucky in this matter. But I've heard a lot of stories about the fact that it is the math experts who are good players. But this was still hoped for by anyone.
Being good at math is an advantage when you're involved in gambling. Especially playing cards because you need to calculate and analyze what was already thrown away. But in other cases like playing dice and roulette it does not require math only lucky is your hope.


In gambling being good in math is not necessary as long as you know the basic mathematics computations. I don't think if you have time to compute the probable of your bet to win. Its just waste your time, all of it will depends on your luck. Expertise in math in gambling is just the same to those who are not good in math, even if they try to computer the probabilty and statistics of every game still the percentage to win is less beacuse in the end it will depends on your fortune.

You're correct mate , expertise in math is not necessary , all the possibilities outcome will depends on our luck. I can't imagine betting in a game you will computing first in order to win its time consuming. Most in gambling can have two possible outcome either win or lose, which usaully 50:50 but still depends the kind of game you try to play like dice which having a less percetage to win having 6 faces.

In addition, mathematics is a broad subject that can compute anything which can relates on the reality having thousands of formulas and theories but during in gambling only our luck can tell if we are lucky enough or not.
548  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Investment on Altcoins on: December 01, 2017, 10:48:10 PM
If you want to take the safe route and want to see your investment turn into profits. I would suggest you invest into something like dash, ethereum, monero, those top alt coins. You might see smaller profits but atleast you will end up seeing profits.. for bigger profits maybe look into some ico and hope they become very successful.
Goodluck.

Investing on different altcoins is good way which can give also a good profit even if  it's not as good as bitcoin does. Monitoring and analyzing the kind of altcoin you want to invest which includes its chart to guide us the best altcoin. Most altcoins handle by different bounty and it will depends on there different advocay and projects hoping to become successful someday. Even it doesn't give a high value still a profitable because most big things started in small and the small profit might create thousand or even million times.
549  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: McDonalds to accept Bitcoin by 2018 on: December 01, 2017, 09:21:55 PM
That is good. maybe i can order some food with 0.000xx btc i have.
it would be great if it happened, because I am sure, many companies will follow this if it really develops. moreover this is free advertising.

McDonalds is one of the famous fast-food chain in the whole world. Infact, having different branches internationally that makes them more popular with there tremendous and delicious menus throughout the whole world. It's a big Wow, If it may happened since many people want a trasaction through bitcoin that makes them easier and comfortable and for sure many business establishments that will follow. Well, as I observed here in my country I didn't yet see any department stores or fast-food accepted bitcoin but nobody knows everything is still in process and I believed someday there will some stores that will accepting bitcoin as there way of paying transaction.
550  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which Sport Do u Like to Bet? on: December 01, 2017, 02:18:42 PM
I try to only bet on one sport, which I understand. For example football. I like to bet on Premier League matches, Spanish La Liga. Also bet on matches in the Champions League and the Europa League.


I like to bet on boxing and basketball which are always trending in my country. Watching basketball like NBA and boxing with the people's champ Manny Pacquiao in the Philippines, helps to divert some of my problems. Betting on particular games will still depends on the player and lastly on our luck.

Also, while watching it feels nervous and excitement to win and also gives bonding to our friends and family members that it can be considered even no money will involved as long as moment of bonding is there that making a good relationship of one another. Especially, you are proud if the one who played is your fellow countryman.
551  Economy / Economics / Re: Diversifying? on: December 01, 2017, 01:15:15 PM
Yeah I think you should. If I were you I will go 50/50. I know bitcoin is going to pump more next year so I'll convert 50% of them into fiat so at least I can buy something for myself or like a reward for the profits I got on bitcoin.

We have different prerogative which will relying on our experienced and to explore what we want to achieved. Diversifying is a way of different investment and the fact which may lead as a profitable income. Converting to fiats some of your bitcoin may gives satisfactory of your needs having a different business as investment which also gives profit. Bitcoin's performance this years, is remarkable and profitable performance and still its value is increasing. Also, having different altcoins will also increased as long as you've always monitor its value for trading purposes.
552  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Where I can learn Bitcoin Trading? on: December 01, 2017, 12:17:57 PM
Hello, everyone.
I am new here. I want to make money from Bitcoin Trading. So First, I want to learn Bitcoin Trading. Please advise me or recommend me some resource where I can learn Bitcoin Trading.

Advanced Many Many Thanks to You All....   Cool

When it comes to learning how to trade bitcoin, the best thing to do is to research. It is difficult to find only one reference, especially because bitcoin is volatile. Also, the problem with learning about bitcoin is there is no definite source of information about it. It is advisable to ask from anyone who is also into trading.

Each of us has a different point of view and techniques to trade our bitcoin and altcoins. Gathering informations and reseach on its different value of altcoin and also consider there charts which fluctuates. There value is unpredictable and its not easy to trade it directly that needs more analysis and information or else your lost.

Also, those friends of yours that have enough knowledge about trading, you may ask some tips or hints in order to have some informations which they will refer on there different experienced that they encountered. Though, it may have different opinions from your friends or even this furom the last decision will be in your hand but remember, having an experienced have more knowledge.
553  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which makes sense to buy a bitcoin or to buy a altcoin? on: December 01, 2017, 05:02:28 AM
I want to buy altcoin or bitcoin for investment purposes before January
Which one do you recommend to buy?
Or some bitcoin and some altcoin?

do you want to buy the expensive coin or cheap coin? I suggest you analyze ethereum, ethereum classic, monero, litecoin for the older coin. the new coin will be waves, neo, kmd, strat, rise, bat. or you can search by your own so you can choose the coin after you analyze. make sure you can be able to determine the price to buy so you can buy at low price. the other thing that you should take attention is the trend of the coin, which is down or up so you don't make mistake to buy.

Agree!
The best thing to do is personal research while checking the others suggestions.
And for me, it could be possible that you would find out that both is fair enough for
 the profit and the last thing you will going to make is just selecting the better one.

You're right, we have our own way to do and choosing the best as long as it is profitable in the future. Bitcoin and each altcoins having there different potentials which its value may occurred. Analyzing and gathering its information first before buying and then monitoring its value every now and then because its value is unpredictable even you already know its capable so much better you always updated. In bitcoin still the same always updated on its value even if we already know it is a dominant crypto currency.
554  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why is Bitcoin Price So Fluctuating? on: November 30, 2017, 06:49:41 AM
If you are an active trader in the world of digital currency and indeed take advantage of extreme price movements Bitcoin to seek profit, Bitcoin prices are fluctuating, of course, brings its own happiness. But it's different if you use Bitcoin as cash or fiat money. If you redeem your one million Bitcoin and intend to spend it on an online site, you certainly do not want your Bitcoin value to decrease as Bitcoin prices suddenly drop. Bitcoin you have now cannot pay for the Hard Disk 1 Terra you want and eventually, you have to buy extra Bitcoin to cover up the shortcomings.

Fluctuating Bitcoin prices have become a daily complaint of Bitcoiners around the world. Actually what factors affect the rise and fall of Bitcoin prices?
Technically I think the major cause why bitcoin is continue to moves up and down was the demand in the market.
Many investors and bitcoin earner are suppose to hoard bitcoin their wallet.
And it cause a lack of btc so, the tendency is to rise the value of it so that many bitcoin holder will sell their coin.
Aside from that the many investors invest in btc the better it improve interms of price.

You also have a point in that, but bitcoin price fluctuates so much because it is still in development phase and nascent stage. Similarly with every new Bitcoin development or negative news, the Bitcoin’s price gets effected. I have seen it drop down by 30% in a week and vice versa, majorly due to news and rumours.
555  Economy / Economics / Re: If bitcoin price is $10.000, will fiat be worthless? on: November 30, 2017, 05:57:17 AM

It’s almost impossible for fiat to become worthless, because it is still the prime currency worldwide, at least, for the time being. Anything can happen in the future though.

As for me, fiat will never become worthless even if bitcoin price reaches to $20,000. Bitcoin's price doesn't matter for fiat to become worthless. Fiat plays an important role to those bitcoin users because they convert their bitcoin into fiat so they can able to buy stuffs whatever they want. Coz as of now, especially in my country, I don't even know if there's a store who accept bitcoin as mode of payment. Aside from that, bitcoin price is also determined by fiat. How will you know how high the price of bitcoin if you don't convert it into fiat, right? Anyway, just my two cents.
556  Economy / Economics / Re: The dream of getting rich with bitcoins on: November 30, 2017, 05:07:24 AM
Maybe not to get rich, but sure as hell to earn a decent amount of money with bitcoins.

How much money did you earn with bitcoins? Or did you lose some?

business in the field of virtual money one bitcoin currency a lot of benefits, because bitcoin a lot of devotees, that's what makes the value of bitcoin high, my suggestion to be successful buy bitcoin now for investment until 1 year ahead would value will be higher than now
One year is short term but I am sure there will be good things that will happen with your investment.
Take it for example this year, the price has already increase more than 800% which is is a good return for just a year, and we have not end this year yet.

Getting rich with bitcoin is going to be a very difficult thing,but there's no possible to make that happen as long as you have a better  plan of your life it. You may start investing here in bitcoin or join signature campaigns if you have not still a profits, through  this way you can able to earn and make it a profit to start investing in bitcoin.Then this the start if your journey going to be rich in the future because  of bitcoin.
557  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Would Bitcoin ending up like Yahoo in the future? on: November 30, 2017, 03:37:43 AM
This is possible that maybe there are a group of people planning to build something that can drop or beat bitcoin in the future. Competition is everywhere and its natural to all kind of business and in daily living.

Yes, I agree! There will be someone who will have the capacity to create a new coin that could possibly beat bitcoin. Now that he/she has the idea or knowledge on how bitcoin works. That person could possibly create something like bitcoin but more improve and more impressive coin than bitcoin. On the other hand, I know that bitcoin will be more improve in the future so there's nothing to worry about. I still believe in bitcoin and I'm also open for a possibility of having a new and coin in the future aside from bitcoin and altcoin.
558  Other / Archival / Re: Have you ever won a Jackpot? on: November 30, 2017, 01:54:15 AM
Winning jackpot happens very rare and for the same one needs to have extreme luck or a good sum of bitcoin to risk. I have come across a person mentioned in a post who won as big as 390 btc through dice. When you go through the game history he has risked big to win the particular amount.
Correct, in my entire life I never experienced to win jackpot in any games. Maybe because it was hard to happen due to our only winning percentage in gambling is 0.000001% because in any gambling it was more risks than being lucky. For example lottery over hundred million people joining in daily draw sometimes no one can get the jackpots price, imagine over hundred million combination of numbers sometimes no one can win. Like in gambling that it's hard to get the winning combination to win the jackpot prize especially in slot machine.

The same with me, I never also experienced  about  winning a huge prize or jackpot in gambling like in the lottery. But if ever it happen that I will win a jackpot prize, first thing I will do is to withdraw my all my winnings and use it to pay all my debts and loans in the bank and give some money to those people whom I owe with. Lastly, I'm gonna invest it in bitcoin and treat my family in a restaurant because we haven't tried eating in a restaurant in our whole life.
559  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What impresses you the most about Bitcoin? on: November 29, 2017, 10:55:18 PM
There are many features because of which I use bitcoin, I like it being decentralized, anonymous, easily transferable just need the address and you are good to go and last it's increase in price over the course of time.

Yes that's exactly some of the aspects that really impresses most of the investors, as for me I was  impressed in bitcoin because of its value that really high demand in the market. And, its price is soaring high that it really attracts me to invest more in bitcoin. Also, I like the way its fast recovery after it
drops.
