4001  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin 4-year cycle is it real? Probable end year rally for Bitcoin on: March 29, 2019, 04:32:53 PM
lets not forget that the "4 year" is the time that has taken once between the two ATHs not between the time bubble pops and the price starts rising. so your first part of the statement (4 year cycle is real) can be correct only if you think things are repeated that way but the second part (end year rally) is wrong because you forgot to look at the charts.
the rallies last time started happening about a year and a half after the bubble burst. and even though i don't agree with things repeating the same way but price should be rising already and be up by the end of the year instead of starting then.
The only thing I know for sure is that I don’t see anything major happening until the halving of next year, even the litecoin halving slated for this year will have good effect on the market but not enough to bring the market out of the bear market fully into bull run but might set it on its part, the major halving expected to really turn the market round and make the major bull run is that of bitcoin which will not happen until next year, sure we will see some major signs this year irrespective of whatever everyone believe will be the course but not the complete bull run. So, let us all wait and see.
4002  Economy / Speculation / Re: What will happen when the stock market crashes? on: March 29, 2019, 03:22:11 PM
bitcoin market is still young and small, so we have no way of knowing how it is going to react to different incidents and we have already seen that there are irrational behaviors in the market from time to time reacting to things they shouldn't react to and going in opposite directions of logically expected before.

Correct, sample size of crypto is small that we can't used it a basis let's say the looming financial crisis or when the stock market crashes. So for now, we really don't know what's going to happen. Maybe some of them will moved to crypto as hedge or just will liquidate their assets.
I really didn’t read my own meaning to it this way but he might actually be right, though this can only happen if the stock market falls beyond control and panic which I have never seen any major stock market fall beyond control but this action can actually force many investors into the cryptocurrency investment as majority of them all their lives has been used to one major form of investment or the other.

Since cryptocurrency, especially bitcoin which is the most popular blockchain investment now, and once bitcoin increases as a result of this act, many other cryptocurrency will follow behind too, aside this point you mentioned, I don’t see any correlation too.
4003  Economy / Gambling / Re: SocialBet.io :: We are looking for funding on: March 29, 2019, 02:25:30 PM
I think the other poster for socialbet was a bit more professional, if you guys want to be taken seriously it would be better if socialbet account responds instead of stickyfingaz. I mean nobody really wants to see their casino respond with "bro" and than ask for a funding.

I think it would be wiser for a company that definitely has this much potential needs to find "business" people at heart as well, I know finding the developers and the designers are the main bulk of the production but if you are lacking funding and you need marketing than you need some "business" people who can do those sort of things, I know those type of people are not loved in coding and startup worlds but those are the ones that help you out during this stage of the company.
4004  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Price Analysis: BTC/USD Bulls Keep Charging to Upside Targets on: March 29, 2019, 01:47:55 PM
The part that really caught my attention in this article is that part where you said Central Banks are stocking up on digital asset too, I doubt this though but nothing is in possible seen we are not with them to witness what they are doing covertly, this might probably be one of the reason why they have fought Bitcoin so hard so it can fall the value for them to be able to accumulate more but it will still be good because their action will end up forcing the market to bull run.

Every of your analysis is possible and I really see bitcoin getting to $5500 by May, I am sure a lot of people will start acquiring with FOMO.
4005  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Patience is the main key of success on trading platform. on: March 28, 2019, 09:13:15 PM
I believe everyone know about this sentence, "patience is the main key of success of trading platform". But I am realising that in practical. I have patience but not enough I think. Because you can see the trend of RVN, I was hold it and just sold almost in 20% profit. But I didn't wait even volume was increasing, I just missed my own logic. I had enough patience really. But who know RVN will touch 1400+ satoshi but I sold it 450 satoshi only. That's why I am realising patience is the main key if success on trading platform.
You are very right man, patience is the main key to successful crypto trading because the crypto market is very volatile so no one can know what could happen in the next minutes, but one way not to lose your funds is to be patience and wait until you see a rise back in the price of the coin, some people give up too easily and this is why they can't make profit from the market even while others are making massive profit from the market, so let's learn to have patience when trading so that we can make profit.
4006  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What causes tokens been dumped after a successful ICO. on: March 28, 2019, 05:15:52 PM
Many of the point is true but you also need to know that hunters too contribute immensely to the dumping of token. In fact, there are many hunters that are also investors so the dumping is from both side. Above all from my experience, I have also noticed that some project dev deliberately dump token in order to crash the price. Also rate of dumping can also be influenced by the listing exchange itself. from my own view 95% of token listed on exchange platform such as Latoken always end up hurribly dumped.
I have always suspected project developers too, just that you were faster in raising the accusation than me and if we look at the developers, they create the coin which means they will automatically have the larger part of the coin, just that they might not display this for public consumption which they end up dumping first ahead of any major investor that might wish to dump it too, but I don’t know if I am making any sense in this, don’t we think this act also might be good to control the rate of dumping from users, this might make the investor decide to hold the coin for long since the price they crashed it to might not be the desired one which will give such project more time to develop their project.
4007  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: AIRDROPS ASKING FOR KYC VERIFICATION on: March 28, 2019, 04:19:54 PM
I'll never join Airdrop because I only waste more time if airdrop asks for KYC so in my opinion it is very clear fraud, essentially I'll not give my personal documents for $ 10 Cheesy
I wouldn’t even do such mistake of giving out my personal information to any airdrop too because majority of them are scam, if they are not okay with my email and wallet add, they should keep their free token to themselves and even in giving out email.

I have learnt to always create a special email for airdrops that if they want to hack it, they can go ahead and do so because we have to be careful not to give them email that contains our sensitive information, has they could also use this means to steal funds from us. I do join some because we might never know which one the manner is sent from heaven;I just don’t release my information.
4008  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Altcoin is right for investment?? on: March 28, 2019, 03:19:23 PM
How do you choose altcoin in the current conditions, when you want to invest in cryptocurrency? Do you see the price or popularity? Share your suggestions and I will appreciate it. Thank you for your comments, success is always for us all.
I usually check the price and the chart of that altcoin. If i think the price is really low, i will buy that altcoins and invest my money into it because i'm sure it will go up again later. For example like ethereum, if the price below the standard, i will buy some and hold it.
That is actually the best way to buy an altcoin, it is very necessary to make sure the price has really bottom before making any form of investment in it but has to be a good altcoins because we also have so many shitcoins in the market now that has gone so low in price and may never rise again even with the bull run as a result of failed project, so buy those type of coins without investigating their base first may lead one to a total loss or get a stocked fund in an investment that has no much trading volume and activities for one to even think of quickly pulling out. Hence, I think it will also be good if the coin we are buying at low price is also investigated first.
4009  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Next New Cryptocurrency on: March 28, 2019, 02:45:35 PM


Now that Facebook has announced that they will come out with their own cryptocurrency, which platform do you reckon will be next? I’ve heard rumours that it could be twitter.
I think it will be telegram, I would have said instagram but when it comes to Facebook, then what Sapp and instagram is already covered, I have not heard nor read anything about twitter coming up with such idea too but there has been so many rumors that telegram will be rolling out their own which I believe they are working on presently, this is why a scammer could take advantage of their plans to scam people last year by rolling out a project set to come from telegram which saw a lot of investment before shutting down their platforms.

It will also not be a bad idea though if twitter can come with theirs too, at least these ones already have products that will make the cryptocurrency more popular.
4010  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: WHY DO WE NEED A TRADING PLAN ? on: March 27, 2019, 08:57:00 PM
I really realized my mistake through your article. I seem to have let my emotions control my portfolio. I was greedy and did not place a sell order at the target I wanted, I also did not place a stop loss to avoid risk.
thank you, seems like i will become a professional investor after reading your article. Grin
Do not be too hard on yourself mate lol, those mistakes are what will eventually make you to be a good trader, when it comes to greed, it really takes time and determination to fight it off, I have read so many articles on greed in trading a lot of times and sometimes, I still get caught up in it a little, some greedy actions of mine has actually helped me while some failed me totally but I don’t want to keep gambling with my emotions.

So right now, I go into trading, use my analysis to place my order and sell it immediately my analysis tells me to do so no matter how little the profit is and I have learnt to quickly take my eyes of it so that I don’t end up regretting my action when I eventually see how much I would have gained if I had not taken that step of selling it.
4011  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Cryptocurrency exchange volume: More fake than real? on: March 27, 2019, 05:58:26 PM
I wouldn't be surprised about that. They always do those fake reports so that traders think that there's a lot of trading going on in a specific site. Marketing strategy consists of some lies.
Thank God it is called marketing strategy and not scam, if I was to be in their shoes too, I would do the same thing, I know a lot of people will be looking at me as a bad person but these actions of theirs is being influenced by us and I term it as a reprisal for our judgment.

Majority of us tend to judge these exchanges at the early stage of their life when they still have low volumes and we look at them as not qualified enough to hold or handle our trades because of their low volume meanwhile they might have the capacity to do so even with low volumes. Now with that fake report, they have been able to gain the attention of trader who are still performing well on the same platform they believe was not worthy because of low volume.
4012  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Invest any time? on: March 27, 2019, 05:21:06 PM
If you know how to manage your money even if you invest at a critical point you will not lose half of your investment if you have a good grasp of managing your trades at a moment's notice. Every now and then you can invest in every trade and even if you are going to lose you will know when you are going to back out to lessen your losses. A big advantage you can have is if you know how to lessen the impact of loss you can get another chance at another coin to earn.
In some case, we should have to consider the market condition as well as the current trend of a certain coin. If you are a wise investor, you've probably never invest when the price as its peak but to take opportunity during dips. That is we usually practice even before and there is no wrong with that in fact, it is very effective and it really make sense.
Actually, if not for the dumping and pumping practices that is going on in the market, we are not supposed to have a peak price but a continuous upward price for a very good project.

If a project has a good product and the product is speaking for it, the value of the coin is meant to keep increasing virtually on a daily basis no matter how little the climb may be, but we will always experience peak when there is pump in the market which is quite risky to invest in then because of its unnatural way of it climbing which there will always be a reversal, so the best time is when most of these coins has bottom and even if we miss it, we can always wait for another chance for it to bottom again.
4013  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Patience is the main key of success on trading platform. on: March 27, 2019, 04:11:20 PM
I'd agree to some extent, but "Patience" is plays a huge factor. But, I disagree on timing, How one could initiate a perfect timing when the industry itself is volatile? Though, Knowledge is a factor. Nevertheless, I consider first hand facts and research as key to success in this field. And TBH,  Patience is applicable to everything not only in this field. Also, just to add, a good decision making and a balls of fury do contribute for the success when engaging in trading.
When it comes to trading, one can really initiate a perfect timing, because one have to work with time especially for day traders who are already used to the use of charts in studying the right time to initiate a trade and also get out of trading but for a long term investment, this is not so applicable as many factors can drastically change the market in favor of it or against it.

So, the best is just to be very patient as you said, invest in very good project that is worthy of one’s trust and worth the wait no matter how long it may take. Provided one is not a trader, chances of always missing the opportunities op had will always be there but it I patent that will eventually help us to make the right decision.

Primedice is home to the Bitcoin high rollers!
Check out this 6 Bitcoin bet!



I speakless to this wager so lucky this player!!
Whooooo Primedice is really awesome gamblingsite a lot of community and active team, I use martigle on dice but always ending lose haha.
Jesus Christ look at the balls on this player. I can't really believe some of these people, if I had 6 bitcoins I would probably just cash them out and buy something like a car or even a small town cottage or something (not like its big enough for a real house), I can't believe this dude just used it on betting, now he has 12 bitcoin of course so his bet really worked out and I don't know how many times he tried before and what this one made the total profits into and all that but I still can't believe betting 6 bitcoins on a 50% chance is really something one would do. I wouldn't even have the courage to bet on 90% winning chance man, that 10% chance of me losing is really scary, maybe 99% or something Cheesy and I am sure someone who already has 6 bitcoin to just gamble wouldn't care about the win on a 99% bet Cheesy.

-snip-

hehe dude, they paid 3m USD dividends in a half year, owns something like 200K BET tokens then you dont have to work any more. I am stilling mining it.
You can continue gambling and "mining" bet token however you like, they could have paid out hundreds of millions of dollars it doesn't change the fact that you need to gamble millions of dollars in order to make a living money out of this, I do not feel like it worth it at all. If you gamble 7 million dollars even on 1% scale that means 70k lost and if you make like 1k per month that means 70 months to recoup your loses (that is if you just go with the edge and not more) that is why I am saying that math doesn't check out.

The only reasonable approach would be betting a lot and hoping that one day BET tokens will pay a lot more than they are paying right now in the future, there is absolutely no other math that. Its your choice of course, do whatever you want but it certainly doesn't look like it worth it at all.

I swear I feel like I saw NBA futures for who will be the champions before on the website but now I am looking everywhere and I can't find it. If there is none and there has never been one than I am going to start questioning if my brain functions properly Cheesy. Was there no futures for NBA ? I think I saw NBA champions and odds and all that but I can't seem to find it now.

If there is one, where do I find it, I try to look everywhere but couldn't find it, if there is none, were there one before but now gone ? And if there has been none, than what do I remember seeing Cheesy. All in all it is getting a bit weird and I am afraid of whats happening with me Cheesy. All kidding aside, if there will be futures for NBA and the champions ever, please notify us here so we can bet on it. Warriors (no matter how much I hate them) will be a free money this season for sure.
4017  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Litecoins are on the up on: March 24, 2019, 11:04:14 AM
Litecoin is surely outperforming bitcoin and many other top coins partly due to its approaching halving later this year. It is a great coin to hodl in any case.
Outperforming ? What do you mean by that ? We can’t just base our facts on opinion but we need to check exactly what is happening in the market, if you had even mentioned ethereum, I would not have said anything but comparing its performance to that of bitcoin is far way outrageous, is your comparison based on the fact that bitcoin as far more stronger community, by marketcap or by volume, the halving you are even talking about is not so far too when bitcoin will be experience its own.

Litecoin is a very good coin and they are performing on their own to the best of their knowledge but not like Bitcoin and will never near bitcoin, I even smell other coins coming soon to pushLite coin off the list.
4018  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What do you recommend? on: March 24, 2019, 09:16:16 AM
With masternode coins, if it wasn't the most trusted I won't invest my money there.

Many MN's are scammers so before investing still recommend to DYOR.

I couldn't understand what masternode means in this topic, but I think someone should define first in order to spread more information regarding this matter.
The masternode is just an innovation of the project to encourage the investors to have at least 1000 of the coins as savings which will in return be generating something like interest, just like our traditional bank saving on fixed amounts.

Well, the innovation is not a bad idea, at least this has the tendencies of reducing pump and dump and encourage long term holding till the project see lots of development but practicing this also depends on the project and the developers, it still has to be practiced on a project that has good potential, otherwise, one will still end up savings a coin that will be shitcoins as a result of bad team.
4019  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: We should stop promoting ICOs who ask huge money for their soft/hardcap! on: March 24, 2019, 07:54:32 AM
I thought of their initial intention to build a project, whether they are serious or not to develop their project?
 Logically, if they are serious about doing that, they must have initial capital. In my opinion, investors are only capital enhancers, not full capital providers for the project. Even though they only achieved softcaps, I think they can still develop the project, because their own team that decides capital is minimal (softcap)
Sometimes, it is our impatience that makes us judge them so fast, and conclude on them that they are shitcoins just because they look slow in executing their project.

When we talk about the project, what exactly is the definition of the project we are talking about, many of us think it has to do with computer forgetting that some of them requires physical human efforts, imagine it is a project that requires having a building, staffing, putting of some technical instruments in place to execute the project, do we really think this can be done less than 6 months?

Would it not be right to even give some of these projects at least one year plus to put some things in place after the ICO, some of us are so used to concluding immediately a project finishes ICO and we want them to enter exchange and once they rush into an exchange without putting necessary things in place, they end up failing.
4020  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bitcoin Dice - why do you play in a particular casino? on: March 24, 2019, 07:18:21 AM
What are the factors that make you play in a particular casino? What are the most important things for you?

There's a lot of Dice sites out there; I was wondering recently what makes some of them much more successful than the others. What are your thoughts on that?
The first thing that makes me chose a casino game aside its reputation is the Soundtrack. As much as this may sound funny, I pay so much attention to the backing track. If I must spend quality time spinning the reels then the music needs to have a good balance. I can’t be playing a game that needs inspiration and the music on the background won’t be inspiring, sometimes I get discouraged playing some casinos because the background music will not motivate me to push more.

3D games are also my favorite, enjoying a lot. I don’t like when the images of a game is of low quality. Low quality games is a turn off for me, Let the Graphics be speaking life and then am ready to spend hours on that game
