I would add to that that gambling in crypto sites is more dangerous than gambling in an ordinary casino.
When you bet with Bitcoin (for example) you make bets of 0,0001 BTC which seems like a small portion. However, in real money this is a decent amount. This makes gambles lose more money without noticing , so this is a risk that should be taken into consideration.
I think anything gambling is a scam either online casino or offline, this are just people that are out to get the money of innocent players by creating a platform to suck them of their hard earned money. I have lost greatly to so many online casino sites and casino houses are not left out. I don’t even know which has done me more harm, whether the online or the casino houses but they are both dangerous in my own opinion.

I will only advise all intending gamblers to get a very good source of income and stop hoping on making it from gambling because it is never going to happen. If you must play at all, its advisable to do it for fun.

In my experiences, I already won but a little amount of BTC only betting on a boxing fight which is Pacquiao-Thurman fight.

Now can I ask you, did you ever won a huge amount of money on gambling?
Share your experience.
Way back in 2016, I won almost 3 BTC from playing a dice game. That is the biggest jackpot I've won ever in my life and I'm still hoping that I can do it again or even get bigger but in a way that I'm still in my control. Nowadays, it's indeed more difficult to defeat the house edge in a dice game. Somehow, you have to find more of your luck in other games and that'a what I'm trying to in gambling with my small accounts.
Whatever strategy you used then that made you win so big can still be used again to maintain winning. 3BTCs is not a small amount of money, you are indeed a champion. Please share little secret here with us on how you won this and the strategy you used, I believe in a way it can still be helpful.

I am considering quitting gambling at this point because I have never won. I can’t even pin point a specific amount that I have won since I began gambling, it’s been from one loss to another and this is really terrible. If I could win just 1BTC I believe I would withdraw the money to do better things because I already feel very frustrated considering all what I have lost.
3863  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The Things That Comes Into Your Mind When Winning... on: August 17, 2019, 08:42:11 AM
I've never thought about investing the winning amount, once after winning my minds gets free and without any fear I used to spend on the consecutive bet as my capital won't gets disturbed even if I loss in the betting. If I've invested my winnings now that could've grown big and yielded me a good return out of it.
Growing up, there is this proverb my mother always tells me and it has helped me a lot in life and mostly in gambling. It says “if you fail to plan, you plan to fail. I think about every possible means to invest while the game is on and this is the reason I am able to invest any little money I win from gambling. Most of my friends find it very difficult to accept that gambling is what I have as a main source of income, I understand this is where I cater for my needs, so I put in all my mind in it while playing.

The thought that always goes on in my mind while I am playing is the amount I wish to win and the place I can invest in in. This is the only thought that runs till the end of the game. It is good because once I win the money; I already know what to do with it. And it helps me not to think of having a rebet, because most times, I already tell myself before the end of the game that I would be comfortable with whatever amount I win.

Human intellectual will always be human intellectual, which is the dominion that God has already given us over some of these things, bot intelligence or artificial intelligence, is it still not product of human intelligence? So you know how powerful human being can be intellectual wise no matter the machine we have.

When it comes to trading of cryptocurrency or Forex trading, human being will always perform much more better than any bot service or artificial intelligence that may have been developed, so I would not really on any bot services that much because they can never perform to optimum as human will, better we learn strategies for trading personally and then always apply it manually even if we have to mix it with bot.
3865  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do you fund ICOs ? on: August 17, 2019, 06:51:49 AM
It is really getting difficult for people to now fund ICOs because record of money that has been raised through ico scam is too much and people are hearing these news and seeing this figures, and with this figure, how do you expect them to be discourage after also knowing that majority of ICO projects in the market including the one that as fully been developed and just full of scam.

No matter what your friend is developing, we have some people that have developed similar thing in similar ways but they still end up using the application to scam investors, so to get investor convinced now in dropping their money for any project takes a whole loots of works and convictions. So for me, I would never support that ICO projects with my personal money.
3866  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Should we have to follow the footmarks of top traders? on: August 16, 2019, 05:47:39 PM
I don't think there is a roadmap to becoming a good trader or there is a trader that is always profiting. In the end everything changes constantly and even a top trader who has been amazing so far can end up with less money after a while.

You have to draw your own path and decide on what type of trader you want to be and how you want to trade, there are so many millions of tiny details about trading that you can't have exactly the same 2 ways of doing it, hence you can copy some of the traders on some big stuff but in the end you have to personalize it, even having different amounts on your starting capital can change so much that you wouldn't believe it. I would say pick some important lessons from the experienced people but use it to draw your own conclusions.
3867  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Binance's IEO vs Huobi's IEO : Which is better? on: August 16, 2019, 05:03:56 PM
Hi there.
In my opinion, I like Huobi's IEO than Binance's IEO. Right, Binance IEO require the smaller days of holding, but the price of BNB is dumping everyday. But HT isnt, it's price increase everyday, and hard to dump (except BTC dump, all alts will dump). And the Huobi's IEO help us better profit too. From x4-x10 until now, but with Binance's IEO, some IEO is having x0.5-x2 now.
When the price of Binance too was at huobi level now, you hardly see any dumping too in their price and investors had stayed so long with them in the market, but I know that a time will come that we will see some dumping in Binance price because it is impossible for investors to continue to hold their money in the Binance market forever, at one point they will all need their capital for something which will make the price of Binance to decline.

If the decline you are referring to was that of some days back now, I think it is just the decline that majority of them use to follow when the price of bitcoin dumps, so I guess it is bitcoin price that is just affecting them.  Huobi too will get to a pint where it will experience some dumps too, but still at it, Binance is still more effective than huobi.
3868  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do or Die for ETH on: August 16, 2019, 04:11:47 PM
The reason why Ethereum has been so popular was because of their smart contract chain that requires all these ICO project to register through it before they can launch their project, and this really make Ethereum surge very high in price in 2017 when ICO became very popular and so many investors put in their money into the ICO market, but since it has been a hell with so many investors after scammers, most of them has been seriously discouraged about ICO and only focusing in bitcoin right now, so what do you expect of Ethereum, of course it will keep going down because there are not many successful ICO again like that of 2017, it is only IEO now that is still trying to attract investors and even IEO is only safe with Binance, other IEO are still full of scam.
3869  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: investing does not have to wait long on: August 16, 2019, 03:37:09 PM
If you can't wait then you shouldn't invest in crypto. It would be short or long and totally depend on situations. If price raise after you bought then you don't need to wait longer and you might get good profit. If price dump after you bought then you should wait longer in order to get profits and avoid losses. So we can say at least you have to wait...
It is not only in cryptocurrency that one’s patience is being tested, it is also tested in our other businesses, I have seen people that invest in business, and would not see anything called profit until after two years, there are people that has been fighting for contracts for years committing money without giving up and they end up getting it no matter how long it took.

Therefore, the most important goal is that we are able to multiply that money that we have In our hands rather than it just being there for years and no matter how long it takes, we just have to be patient till we see that our money has yielded profit, that is still why everything surrounding our investment is tied to our own goal setting. Like my goal, is to at least see 90 percent profit on my investment and I think I am okay with that.
3870  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Altcoin or Bitcoin on: August 16, 2019, 03:04:46 PM
Many altcoins don't have real projects and are just like pump and dump projects. If we can diversify our investment in potential bitcoin and altcoin, I think we will get some profits from our investment
The thing that I don’t understand about altcoins is that if they all have a very great idea in their whitepaper, what stops them form fully working according to the working product that was proposed on their whitepaper, do I call it laziness or lack of will to just do those things because if you really take a look at some product’s whitepaper, you will see that most of the product that they propose in their whitepaper is really of good quality but I wonder why we end up seeing some failed projects.

People want to really diversify, but they are not being encouraged by developers of those projects because they are not really making their products that seen and useful like the way bitcoin is, it was not easy when satoshi started also, but he kept on pushing until bitcoin scaled through.
3871  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Better than an ICO and IEO? Introducing the SCO on: August 16, 2019, 01:29:38 PM
Well, game of luck though, we cannot condemn it until we try it out first, there is always room for competition and development, maybe this will eliminate scammers from the market, we might never know, but would not completely rely on it first because this was how STO came with all sort of promises right now, but look at it still struggling with just one project that is yet to see the light, which is Bitbond.

The only solution that we one now which is the major challenge of IEO and ICO is scammers, if this so called SCO will still accommodate scammers, then it is no better than ICO and IEO then, so I think we just have to continue with our IEO for now till this new method of yours is proven to be another reliable system like that of IEO, because we have to be careful so that we don’t drive investors away from the market completely.
3872  Economy / Economics / Re: Crimes involving crypto have risen on: August 16, 2019, 12:56:17 PM
Even now, a very large amount of wealth is being lost on various cryptocurrency scams and hacks. Initially everyone was expecting that the incidence will go down with time, as Bitcoin matures as a global currency. But that is not the case. Scams and hacks remain as prevalent as ever and users continue to lose their hard earned money on them.
Hacking and scam is real, I will not dispute it, but sometimes, most of us makes it easy for these scammers to really scam us, we store our money in exchanges, where they can wake up one day to just turn their backs against us and then steal the coin in our wallet, but we have heard that from people severally that we should never store up our coin on an exchange, but yet, some holders still do that

Secondly, we make use of any wallet that is not popular or familiar, or wallet that are not with private key, I don’t think it would be that easy to scam and offline wallet with private key, and concerning scam which mostly occur on ICO market, still our fault that we desperately make investment, do we have to invest in these ICO’s, what happened to already existing top ICOs?
3873  Economy / Economics / Re: FedNow - Crypto Killer or Signs of a weakening Fed Res? on: August 16, 2019, 08:25:01 AM
In my opinion, it is a policy against cryptocurrencies. Recently, Binance has also opened a exchange exclusively for Americans (Binance.US)
Besides, Paypal and Visa and a number of other credit card providers are also creating many services for crypto - fiat transactions.
that's why the Fed needs to set up a FedNow system to strictly manage money.
OH, I SEE, I thought that Binance excluding the US citizens from their platform was to ban them completely, I never knew that they had another agenda, maybe that is the condition given to them by the United State for them to be able to support their operation, and the reason why I believe US did that was to have full control over the US transaction in cryptocurrency.

Coinbase is already not a problem to them because they must have been working with those ones already and getting necessary information from them so that they can use it to tax Americans, now that they have gotten to Binance too, American cannot really escape it except maybe they want to start dealing with DEX exchanges alone. For their payment, I am not sure it will have any effect because it is not crypto.
3874  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What You Should Know Before Playing A Crypto Betting Game on: August 16, 2019, 07:35:21 AM
Well, this is what happen those gamblers jumping into the newly launched gambling site without any digging research, I won't trust gambling site that newly operates. I will deposit my money when they are operated their gambling site at least 6 months above of existence and I am sure that range they can build enough reputation. Here is the second one, don't leave a big amount of money on gambling wallet even though they are trusted because we don't know the possible happen when they have corrupted also your fund was gone. Indeed, choose the better one because that is your own risk.
In as much as I believe so much in research and all the likes but contrary to the general believe that a site that has not existed for over six months cannot be termed trustworthy, I believe this is based on individual believe and not a proper way to assume a reputable site. I played on a site last month I was among its first visitors.

I only stumbled on this site from a popped out ads and I decided to give it a trial, the bonus offer was superb. The theme excellent and everything about the site was just perfect and to crown it all, I want and withdrew my money smoothly. What if I followed this believe?

I will like to say that in addition to all the stated guides of what to do before gambling or the things to be considered, the overall should be for you to follow your instincts. Instincts are far better than whatever review from anyone. Just my opinion.
3875  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Anyone here have some strategy to gain money, but with low profits daily? on: August 16, 2019, 06:53:15 AM
Winning every month is not even a guarantee. There are some months that there will not even be a single win. It will be a big mistake for anyone to depend on gambling as  a means of income except that person is ready to starve during the times it does not pay off.

I see the OP as one person that believes so much in gambling and the profits it can bring, maybe the reason he is looking for strategies but at the end of the day, he will be given strategies that would fail him and end up losing his money. The money that could have been invested into other business to bring more profit. To the OP, my advice, gambling is just a game where we can have fun and make new friends. We can get money along the line though, but you can’t make money daily and there are no strategies for these. Thank you.
The OP is able to ask for these because he knows gambling better than you do. Your ideology on this  is totally different. There are a lot of gamblers that are still earning daily from gambling despite its uncertainty without starving and perhaps still doing very fine.

I have read about some of them and I am sure most of them could succeed by the strategies they applied, so there’s no harm knowing about this. I am also very much interested in knowing these strategies since I am into gambling to make money and I will be glad if I can get to know what strategies those succeeding are using, if others are making money, that definitely means there is a way out and there is a something they know which might be a secret to ordinary gamblers like us.
3876  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling habits that will cost you on: August 16, 2019, 05:19:01 AM
Set a budget for a certain length of time and stick to it. If possible, try not get it down to zero. Once you run out of money, you can't deposit more.

For example if you set a weekly budget and lost all that, you don't replenish it until the next week. The good thing about setting a fixed budget for a regular interval is you can track if you are earning anything.
This practice of setting limit is really very nice but I bet it’s not for everyone because at times the money that some players set as limit just the same as running a normal daily bet without limit and at the end it all runs down to zero.

I feel the best is just to be a disciplined player. Limit or no limit, you would always know when to stop a game if you find out the game is not favorable. This has been my method, I never set limit for my games, I didn’t find the act of setting limit cool after I tried it onetime and I exhausted my stakes the very moment my game was just to begin and it didn’t make me happy at all. It’s just better to play your games and control yourself than depending on a set limit…

Share your experience.
Don’t you ever laugh at what I am about to say, the last time that I ever won huge money on gambling was through a game, but unfortunately, it is a money that cannot be withdraw and i really wish that it was in real life, things would have change for good for me. Jokes part now, I have been so much interested in gambling, most especially sport betting but I have never really been a very good gambler.

Most of my betting has been full of losses and I thought maybe by playing all  these sport betting games, I could be better, but funny enough, I am always winning when it comes to game sport betting, and I remember that the last time I played casino game, I really won a lot of money but when it comes to real life gambling, I fumble a lot.
3878  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Traders who never bother to learn how to trade on: August 16, 2019, 02:55:34 AM
I have also felt, at the beginning of trading, after we close the transaction with profit, feeling like wanting to open a transaction again even though our analysis says to wait, it seems like the hands become itchy to open a transaction. but I think it is a learning process
When I started this, I experienced this a lot too, till I learnt my lesson, and I learn to take my analyses very serious and stop basin it on guess and assumption, the worst that first happened to me was on my first trade, I felt because I was good at using demo, that it would be the same as live trade, so maybe my hand was itchy too and I opened live trade, and the worst thing about my decision was even that I started trading with leverage, I ignored analysis and started trading with instinct till  lost a lot on my first trade, but from there, I had to withdraw to go and learn more and that was what led to me being a pro trader till date. So we just need to have patience in when trading and make sure we strictly follow our analysis strictly.
3879  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: platform or some resource !? on: August 16, 2019, 01:38:15 AM
Hi there folks! Does anyone know if there’s a platform or some resource where I could see who sells signals with real and reliable statistics? Or any reliable bots that would transparently provide statistics of trades?
I don't think that there is a reliable and legit signals seller in crypto as huge traders keep their trading plan by themselves so their plan could be executed at time without any problem.
Legit and trading signals actually do exist, but I do not think there is any in crypto market, I have only seen some for Forex and maybe stock market, most of the ones that has claimed to have a legit signal for cryptocurrency are just doing try and error thing, or better still they are using the early believers of their signals to practice their strength and see how they can also deal in this volatile market.

It is not bad to actually try though, but people need to run away from those ones that are requesting for money, they are just trying to take advantage of people to make money out of them, anyone that cannot start with free signals first would never be given the benefit of doubt at all, because he will end up either scamming them or predicting what will make them lose finally.
3880  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Where to exchabge Monero? on: August 15, 2019, 06:56:13 PM
Hello! I want to exchange my Monero but I don't want to loose too much money. I know that changelly takes 0.25% fee, but I want to pay less. Do you know any other services?
Of course we know, and I would only recommend Binance for you now so that you can take advantage of their 0.1% fee, with that, I think it is still the cheapest you can get for exchanging your Monero, but even at that, you may still have to be paying up to that fee as total amount, because you have to still take It through local exchanges like localbitcoins, and they all have their own fees too.

By the time that you gather all these fees, I bet you may be paying up to that percentage. It is still good though because you would have paid more than that if you don’t get a lesser exchange fee. I would have also suggested a decentralized exchange for you to try, which is why you can always have a cheaper fee and also bargain for one, so try dex exchange out first.
