1101  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Having no money to invest in Bitcoin is even better on: November 11, 2023, 10:16:54 AM
Bitcoin provides a lot of opportunities even without investing or using capital to earn, for example, by joining signature campaigns, faucets, etc. The only limit is your patience and dedication to earn. Those ways of earning don't require capital, but they will require a lot of effort and patience to earn. But if you want bigger earnings, then it is not the wrong choice to invest in bitcoin. There are also a lot of ways to earn bitcoin. I only started earning bitcoin even without a capital; I started from faucets and mining, and then after I discovered other ways to earn, I studied those fields and still keep on learning. Right now, I do campaigns, which require effort, but it is worth it, and I still follow my routines. It's a bit exhausting, but it is worthy and rewarding, so I don't regret anything at all about investing time and effort in bitcoin.
1102  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Not keeping records makes me a bad gambler? on: November 10, 2023, 11:13:32 PM
What joy is it in keeping record of one's gambling life experience when all we could see are losses in all the bets we made from the slip, though we should be able to track same on the casino profile when we check in our gambling bets history, but am very sure that most gamblers don't consider this as an interesting action to take, keeping record if not for a specific demand will only make us feels regrettably from how we gamble and the rate of amount of money used for gambling purpose.

But the essence of keeping records or tracking losses and wins is a good thing for me. Why? Business-minded, do you want to know where your money goes? How much money have you made or lost? No right? Keeping records will keep you aware of what's happening in your capital; you will see if you are gaining or not. It's not about feeling sad or having regrets about your losses; it's about how you will manage your money. Maybe for some people, they don't care about the history or record of their gambling, but for others, they do this practice to handle their money and efficiently see how well they do in gambling. So I don't get why gamblers, especially online, don't keep records. It is a good practice for money management, yet they don't do it, and you will be confused about where your money goes or will not be aware if your capital is earning or not.

That's the basic knowledge that many beginners in trading forget. They abandon these two things, hoping to still earn; some rely on free trading signals or purchase signals from paid channels or groups. Without them knowing that, even though it is hard to learn and execute these two elements in tradition, eventually it will be worth it. And it's easy to learn this thing because all the resources, such as ebooks, videos, or study materials, are all over the internet; you just need to give it time and patience to absorb them. Anyway, it's good that you give your friend advice like that or an idea; it will be helpful for his trading journey. We just hope that he will know more about the two things you've mentioned. Yeah, it's a bit hard to absorb it all at once, and there's no guarantee that you will always have a winning trade, so I guess you should also have a good mindset while trading.
1104  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who among you here is gambling at work? on: November 10, 2023, 02:22:43 PM
   -   Maybe those kinds of gamblers have a permanent itinerary, and the weekend is really reserved for them to play gambling in a casino. And I don't see anything wrong with his task activity. I also rarely see a gambler who has such a habit every weekend.

Maybe the weekdays are reserved for him for personal work, so it's like that, so his work won't be affected, and if what I'm thinking is right, he's doing a good job then. And I hope all gamblers are like him when he really is like that.
I think it's hard to only gamble in weekend because we're free and we can do anything that we want. As long as our working friends or boss is allow us to gamble, most of people will being transparent and gamble at work.

Gambling is one of many ways about entertainment, similar like people who're playing game at work.

Yes, there's nothing wrong with playing gambling at work or during lunch time at work, because I also do gambling even when I'm in the office. What is bad is that I don't think casino websites are allowed in the office, or maybe you can't access gambling sites at all because it is part of the company's security, so if a gambler who works at work can access such a website, then it is safer to find the legitimate website because, as we know, many websites contain malware, viruses, or are used for phishing and scamming people. So having a work ethic is important, and it includes that an employee should protect the company from any viruses that could affect the company. So if you really can't resist to bet or gamble, then first make sure your website is clean; second, still do your task; and for the courtesy of your company, know first if there will be no problem from the company knowing you are playing gambling games.
1105  Other / Off-topic / Re: Keeping your gambling habit a secret. on: November 10, 2023, 01:22:10 PM
Good point about hiding and feelings. People hide things they do because they are either feel uncomfortable (like feeling ashamed of it) what they do, or the things they do has illegal context. Is gambling illegal? In some countries yes, in some not. I would understand if person hide that he gamble in country where it is illegal. About feelings, if I am an adult, why would I be ashamed of gambling? Or feel uncomfortable from doing something that brings me fun. Seems absurd to me.

But many do feel ashamed about their gambling habit, even if they are adults. In the first place, gambling is something not to be brag about or announced to anyone you know, maybe just to your trusted and close friends. The root cause is the stereotyping created by many people or the crowd; they think that gambling is illegal and bad, but the ones who create that description are the people who do it; there is no gambling addict if those people control themselves; there are no crimes related to gambling if they discipline themselves; in short, the people themselves are the reason why gambling is being categorised as an illegal or bad habit. Well, we can't please all people, so if you don't want to be judged, then it's better to hide it as I said gambling habit is something not to brag, keep it low and keep it safe.
1106  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What according to you should be the age to retire from gambling ? on: November 10, 2023, 09:44:35 AM
Many believe that gambling is for young people online as they need thrill and and fun. But I think that even old people can enjoy gambling.
The set of people that are suppose to be enjoying gambling are the elderly people. When you retired from work and you nothing doing, you may choose to gamble for enjoyment and relaxation. You will definitely be bored when you are at home. You may just keep yourself occupied with gambling, and before long, and I am sure by then the person will have experience, they won't be gambling with a large amount that will have any effect on them even after losing.

There should be any age to retire from gambling at all.
It depends on everyone, but I don't think there is anything like a time to retire from gambling. You can choose to stop gambling whenever you want, and if you like, you can keep on gambling till your old age. I just see it as a choice, so it's up to everyone to decide. Gambling sites are always against underage gambling, but there's something like retirement age, so it's left for everyone to stop gambling when they want.

Gambling isn't a kind of hired job which those who engage in it retire when their service years are over however, I think there should age limit in gambling sites that should not allow people above 65 years to engage in gambling. At 65 years a man isn't a expected t gamble because I think the effects of gambling isn't supposed to be experienced by aged people as it might medically   be very bad for their health. Wether it's a choice to gamble at old age or not, I don't I think it's good from people over 65 years.
Well, if you are referring to both online and physical, I don't think that at age 65, it is not appropriate for that age to gamble. Why? Because I've known quite a few elders, including my grandparents, at that age they treat gambling as their past time only, as their entertainment, and as such, they don't waste too much money, money that is enough to make them happy. For example, their bonding with their friends is gambling, and not every time gambling games should involve money. Sometimes you just need to enjoy the game, and thats what the elders do. There are more older gamblers that play because of the fun and not about money. So I don't think that at age 65 you should limit a person from gambling. With money involved, yes, but in games only used in gambling, they should enjoy it as they age we can't stop them on what is making them happy, maybe just guide and limit them.
1107  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What if some country decides to pay pension to working population in bitcoin ? on: November 10, 2023, 08:22:06 AM
What if some country decides to pay pension to working population in bitcoin ? What percent of people will agree to getting pension in bitcoin in your opinion  ? What will be the benefits and limitations of this occurrence in long term on people and economy ?

I don't think a lot of people who will receive pensions will be happy about this. Yes, they can receive the same amount, but in bitcoin? Because bitcoin is a complex thing and people who receive pensions are old, I don't think they can manage it by themselves because it will take extra work for them to convert it into their desired currency. Second, the government still hasty with bitcoin, so it's impossible to implement it, but your question is "what if?" If it happens, then that would be great because it means that the government will accept bitcoin eventually, and it will also be much better if the receiver is also happy with that new form of receiving their pension.

limitaios? I guess the transaction fees. As we know, transferring or converting bitcoin into USD or any other form of currency requires fees, and I think it will be an issue for many.
1108  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Holding for long might not be the best option. on: November 10, 2023, 07:52:24 AM
There has been several occasions of people saying buy and hold without consedring the negative effect it has impacted on many people live. Lets take for instance, when bitcoin was at ATH of about $69k somany people bought at same price expecting it to hit $100k and above while some baugh at the price when it was 40, 50, $60k conservatively. When it was going down to even $20k people keep on holding. Now it's about 2 years since bitcoin fell and never meet up with the price they baught. And they are hoping it comes back after losing huge amount of money. New investors are are taking advages of it while the old investors are regretting.

So I sudjest sometimes if the market is going down beyond bearable measures, there is need to swap your BTC to USDT to keep your capital safe in other to buy back when it is going up to avoid loosing some huge amount of money.

So what's your sudjestion on this.

Dude, that's why predictions and technical analysis are required before buying an asset or bitcoin itself. Of course, if the investor decides to buy bitcoin, he or she should consider or do analysis before buying and do long-term trading. Long-term trading doesn't mean a guaranteed profit, and if you do long-term trading, the trade still has downsides. That's why equity is important for a trade. Long-term doesn't mean it should take years; some investors choose to let their assets sit for years. Maybe because they don't have anything to do with their asset or they just choose to hold their assets there, trusting bitcoin, but of course it's the call of the investors. Yes, it could be a disadvantage, but there are different meanings for investors in the long term. Also, short-term trading is very risky. That's why it will all depend on the situation and how the traders do their thing.
1109  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Treating bitcoin as a teenager. on: November 09, 2023, 11:57:10 PM
The ones that expect too much from bitcoin and complain if they don't get what they expect are the new ones. I mean, they've entered bitcoin lately because of the hype. They joined it and invested in it, thinking that in an instant they could earn a lot from it, but it's not. That's why they are the ones that complain too much about bitcoin, but for those who're in bitcoin even at its lowest price, they understand a lot about bitcoin, like what the OP says's bitcoin still has a lot of potential in the future. Imagine that bitcoin is still strong after several years, indicating that bitcoin will still be strong and has the potential to grow. What I'm referring to is its technology; bitcoin can still be used in many things; we never know. That's why I don't listen to the people who complain too much about bitcoin, because I know they are the inpatient ones.
1110  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Getting losses, Take a break and just focus on Bitcoin. on: November 09, 2023, 11:11:08 PM
First of all, what your friend did was very wrong. He let his thoughts and greed to recover the losses, and he let himself trade after a loss, which indicated that he was not in a good mental state. Now your friend has learned it in a hard way. Youre right, a trader should only focus on one asset to trade. Well, many traders trade in different coins, but they can manage it; they know about that coin; they study it. But from the looks of what happened to your friend, he decided to trade in altcoins just because he sees that altcoins have a price movement, which is a bad decision.




And with that little capital, he trades in different altcoins? That is like a suicide; that amount of capital can only be traded for one coin; in fact, it is still risky to trade with that capital because it will give you a little equity, and maybe the reason your friend loses almost all his capital is because he trades with high leverage, which is not suitable for the SAIF capital.
1111  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What impact does the BTC price have on your gambling habits? on: November 09, 2023, 10:35:51 PM
Well like others say here, nothing becauss I still play the allocated amount that I usually usef to gamble, for example in every session I only use $100 worth of BTC if I'm playing in a crypto based casino, then even the BTC price changes I still will used $100 worth of BTC so nothing changes, I still will follow my limit in gambling, but of course if the price moves I will choose not to gamble at all, because I will be focused on doing trade at that time. I only do gambling is the BTC price is calm or minimal movements. But yeah in summary nothing changes in my gambling habit it will still be the same. Maybe the the impact of Bitcoin price movement will be in other aspect like in trading or such but in gambling I'm sure gamblers will not be affected to it, as you will only spend the assets you have.
1112  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling or gaming sites on: November 09, 2023, 09:56:05 PM
Recently one of my friends told me about some gambing / gaming sites  or apps like Orion Stars, Milky Way, Fire Kirin, Gamevault, Riversweeps,   Ultra panda and few others. 
He told that these are very popular games but i told that i am not aware of these sites. I first thought that they could be gaming sites but later i find out they have gambling games and are in fact casino.

A few of the sites / App links are http://web.pandamaster.vip/game/pandamaster/ , http://web.orionstars.vip/play/orionstars/

Has anyone known and played at these sites? Do let me how was their experience and what sort of games are there ?
Are they pure gambling sites or a mixture of gambling and gaming sites ? Although you need coins to play at these sites and you can redeem the winning coins into fiat money.


As a cautious person, before previewing your attached links, I use a link checker to see if those links are safe. The result is that these sites are risk-free, but they lack more information, so it's up to the readers to check the site itself. Based on the mentioned sites or gambling sites, I'm not familiar with them, maybe because they are new websites or such. But I'm more focused on the application than the website. I like to do gambling online that has an application and can be downloaded to app stores, which will indicate that the site or casino is safe and trusted. Casino games are simply games that involve money, so they are the same as gaming sites. And gambling sites only have games that can be found in physical casinos, as the websites are dedicated to replicating the traditional casino for easy access and convenience for the gamblers.
1113  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Pro-trend or Counter-trend? on: November 09, 2023, 01:35:11 PM
I think it will depend on the situation. But I mostly do pro-trend or follow the trend because I earn more from that method. Sometimes I also do counter-trends, but not often because I'm still not confident in doing that method and also because I don't have the expert skill to do so. That's why I also still look up references to know the trend, but I still map my own chart and follow it. So yeah, it will depend on the situation. I know a friend who does counter trend a lot; so far, it's an effective method for him, but as I saw mapping analysis, I saw that we have a different setup. That's why I realise that our trade will depend on us who do the analysis. That's why I don't do much counter trade; it's too risky for me, and I know I'm not confident and skilled enough.
1114  Economy / Gambling / Re: QuitGamble.com - Free Help for Problem Gamblers on: November 09, 2023, 12:30:33 PM
the site looks interesting. But the main thing i don`t like that i need to register. And everywhere i see the button of registration. And i can`t test site totally without registration.
It is possible that there are lots of opportunities after registration and i think that at least part of them really need registration(like different challenges). But the same time i must have an opportunity to use some services without registration - i don`t like it. So i just looked at the site and closed it.

I see your point. Pure waste of time. And it can be frustrating when you're required to register just to explore a website. While registration can offer benefits websites should allow users to access some features without it to make the initial experience more user-friendly.

If they really want to help us they don't need us to register IMO.
True, I agree with what guys are saying, how can a person who visits their website be attracted or interested in their website if the person can't access some features of the website, I know there is informations in the front website but it still not enough to atrract people or players, ok let's say someone got interested but he need to login first it is a bit hassles and we know users tend to be bored because they need to do something before they view what attracted them, I get it its easy to register but still if you know how to attract players for your website then at the front page of your website you will put something that will make them register right away, or because of their curiosity they will register to your website or app, text is not enough to attract people, as some are too lazy to read long texts so the effective way to attract them is by using graphics, pictures that is example in your website. You have to do more when it comes to attracting players to your website.
1115  Economy / Gambling / Re: Guide for newcomers Start a fun and profitable gambling entertainment journey o on: November 09, 2023, 10:35:38 AM
I don't think promoting your website or casino website will be useful. First, your account is a newbie, so a lot of readers here might think that your casino cannot be trusted. I've read your post, but it still lacks some promotional information. And that's right, like most said, buy a higher-tier account so you can catch the attention of everyone here.

I've visited your website; it seems fine but still lacks information or legitimacy. As you said, it's a new website. The casino might as well spread your post in another section, but you could be tagged as spam. There is a specific section in this forum where you can freely promote your website. Anyway, good luck promoting your website. I hope you can attract more players. I hope also that you could give attention to the posters here in your topic and answer their question, so they could not have any speculation or common sense on your website.
1116  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you know about the first public servant paid in bitcoin ? on: November 09, 2023, 08:20:44 AM
But we can't blame him for that; it's because it's his salary, and we know why he works; it's because he has basic needs and expenses, so at that time he does not have a mindset for something like we know right now; it's simple; he is not meant for that; we can't predict the future; we never know what will happen; and in that year, the bitcoin price has a small amount, and the technology is new to most people in that year, so no one expects that bitcoin will skyrocket and will be popular.

The story is similar to that of a guy who brought a pizza using his bitcoin. At that time, even though bitcoin has an amount, it's still not that much. A guy used his bitcoin asset to bring a pizza without knowing that if he holds the asset, he will also be a millionaire. It's also an example of people who missed a big opportunity that will turn their lives around in an instant, but they are not to blame; not all will be lucky.
1117  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is not perfect, and that's okay. on: November 09, 2023, 03:58:30 AM
I don't see how the statements made by the OP will be considered flaws because that is the characteristic of bitcoin—the nature of bitcoin itself. In fact, that is the beauty of bitcoin: its unique technology and characteristics that give investors opportunities. Volatile? I don't see that as a flaw. Yes, maybe from its word, but in bitcoin, it means profit potential. If there's no movement in the market, then there's no profit.

I agree with all the OPs who stated that not all things are perfect, even bitcoin. Yes, it can be subject to crimes and wrong deeds, but that is not the fault of bitcoin; the ones to blame are the people who commit the crimes.

So no matter what, I will still believe and do bitcoin stuff as long as I gain profit from it. This technology still has a lot to discover and can be applied to other technologies and daily lives.
1118  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: investing plan on: November 08, 2023, 11:35:28 PM
I'm sure many have already suggested investing all in bitcoin or a large percentage of your capital in bitcoin. Well, you can follow that, but it still depends on you, meaning that what do you want long-term or short-term? because if you are going to put your capital to hold bitcoin, then you will need to wait long term before you can get a huge amount of profit. Yes,  anytime you can convert your bitcoin, but you will not utilise the profit potential. then if you want to still earn while holding a bitcoin asset, then you can use the other portion of your capital to hold another alt coin, but still, you need to wait. So I suggest exploring more other things to earn using a crypto currency. You can do trade or staking, and crypto currency or bitcoin itself is a broad industry. You can explore many things that could help you earn.

Well, first of all, congratulations! It's good to see this kind of topic wherein people show their achievements or things they do with the help of bitcoin, and that is a wonderful thing, but it's also thanks to you, because without your initiation to invest in bitcoin, you will not have what you have now. Luckily, you invested at the right time, and sharing your story helps a lot of readers here to give hope and believe that they can also achieve something with the help of bitcoin, and of course, with the help of themselves. We just need to keep on grinding and pursuing our wants and needs. I too think that being thankful for bitcoin gives me a lot of opportunities and because of that I get to buy the things that I don't have in the past, so I will keep on doing bitcoin stuffs, its inspiring to read stories like this.
1120  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What are some things you should always avoid while gambling ? on: November 08, 2023, 10:14:24 PM
Aside from the things listed by OP, I just want to add that we should avoid gambling while under the influence of alcohol because many tend to do action even if its not on their plan or strategy and many tend to spend more simply because they can’t control their emotion while under the influence of alcohol. Make sure when you gamble you are in right state of mind and you know what you are doing to avoid any big losses.

You're on point, dude. Gamblers tend to gamble under the influence of alcohol; it often happens if there is a drink session, and one of their favourite things to do is amble. I personally do this: when me and my friends are having a drink, we play a card game called "tong-its" because it's fun playing with friends, but we don't stake too much money; we only place small bets just for fun.

But it's unavoidable to notice that in most casinos, they offer or let the gamblers have alcohol. Well, it's part of the casino, especially in cally and expensive casinos. So many gamblers gamble under the influence of alcohol, but many are immune to this, which means that they can still gamble straight even after consuming alcohol. Some really want alcohol beside them because they think that it makes them gamble more efficiently, so it can't be avoided, but of course, being drunk and gambling is what we must avoid.
