401  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do some gamblers actually win? on: February 17, 2020, 06:49:24 PM
Yes, some gamblers really do win but unfortunately, it's a very small percentage, and the house always wins, this is the reason why gambling is a multi-billion dollar industry, and new online casinos are coming up to get a slice of this huge industry.
let's admit it gambling is addictive, gamblers always come back to play and this is what gambling casinos are taking consideration, they always have a returning client or customers, the money just keeps on coming.


There are some gamblers who do win from the casinos but not that much if we sum up all those gamblers around, it's only a small percentage of gamblers who are lucky and well discipline in terms of working with the system / strategy that they've created to take some edge against the house. Wise gamblers do limits themselves and always have directions once they've played inside the gambling house.

Limiting themselves is the very best strategy to do, since gambling has no definite assurance to gain a better lucky profit. Everything is always a luck and random chances, which we can't expect everytime gambling has been played all over. No matter what strategy will comes out, it doesn't matter as long as we've been doing it with effort and proper decisions.
Yes, of course their some gambler is actually win some of them involve skill, but all of them involve luck. And the only way to enjoy gambling is to be able to overcome greed enough to gamble, also they should have a goal to avoid addiction in gambling and and lessen your loses. I think gambler should be rest for a while wen they win because many gambler loses a al ot due to continue to bet until they lose again.

Looks like only big exchange tokens or the exchanges that have good utility and use of their tokens are in demand and prices are increasing nicely but there is other side of story as well, many new or upcoming exchanges that had their tokens are either struggling, closing or failing as well, just look at coss, it is still struggling after 2 years of operations because of extremely low volumes, many others are in same situation, while, cobinhood has closed and many like ironx and bcnex seems to be failing already.
The volume looks to be the vital factor for the increase in exchange prices lately, obviously not IEO cause we have only few in recent months. Binance had its token burn recently which could also be a factor, however, not all exchanges are the beneficiary of the token price pump. Some exchanges announced slash in transaction fee recently, its also a attractive measure for users' adoption of exchange.
Because of the rising demand that's why exchange coins is also moving up. Also some of crypto begin to rise when Bitcoin is increasing, For me it's a sign that your coin is become known and it's means many people are interested to it, also its mean your coin is really worth it.

Ok let's assume you love to eat ice cream and you can eat any amount of ice cream but what will be your reaction if someone wanted to do the same thing in a crowded place there will be some uncomfortable feel will arise right.
I think the there is no problem about that as long as you can play then do it even it means playing in a crowded. Also most of the time casino is always have a lot players and its rarely to casino to have few player, so I think there's no reason to not play just mind your own. Keep playimg and dont mind them and no need to worry if the casino is to crowded as long as you can focus then continue but if your not comfortable to play then find another casino.

404  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What are your recommended ways of gambling. on: February 16, 2020, 08:59:18 PM
It has been almost a year with crypto gambling but I feel I am still a newbie in gambling. I have not made big profits here but I had lost few of my campaign pay outs which makes to think like that I am doing something wrong and I must learn something before continuing with my gambling.

It would be too good if you share how you are surviving with your gambling. I read everyone is facing losses like me (not sure how true that is) but I do see some 25 to 100 people are online in most of crypto gambling houses; among continuous losses, no one could bear to gamble more. It means, am I missing out some trick? I tried auto dicing but I read manual dicing will be profitable but how patients crypto gamblers are to play manual dicing with least base bet?

If you have some tips which helped you to gamble for years, please share here. I have limited budget but want to gamble for longer duration even I will not make profits.
You are really into gambling which is really a bad mindset because you really wanted to play gambling not only as a hobby or for entertainment that you wanted to gamble to earn huge profit, that is why i suggest you should stay away from gambling as soon as possible because it will not help you to gain profit that it will only help you to lose more money. Gambling is not the best solution to gain profit, so you should find other ways besides gambling.
I agree when someone do gambling because of wanting to get huge profit that person is in the big trouble because it is the sign of addiction.o recommend to all especially to newbie in gambling is to have goal because you know your limit and you follow your time management. Also when having a goal possible can cause you to become successsful because you have a purpose and avoid from being addicted to it.
405  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: As a Bounty hunter, don't expect too much on: February 16, 2020, 02:46:02 PM
this has been my decision last time. to hold on to projects that did well during sales and marketing. My opinion, Verasity remains the only outstanding token that did a bounty and are still focus with marketing and hard work in promoting their token. currently listed in over 4 TOP TIER exchange. (binance-dex, bittex, kucoin, hitbtc) A sign of hard work and dedication by the team. The rest project are just messing around. playing with the funds in their account.
We cant blame those people who expect to much in bounty becuase some of them experience a good profit from it. Also not all bounty is messing around because there is still some bounty is really worth it. To know the good bounty find a dedicated team or find a bounty that have high rank team there is possibility its worth it. Dont expect to much because not all the time can give you what you want to happen but sometimes its failure.
406  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Facts about bounties on: February 16, 2020, 01:47:41 PM
You're right, though many bounties are scam nowadays there's also few existing that are legit. The only problem is its hard to determine what could it be because sometimes even you do an extensive research and careful where to participate, you're still ending up in a scam project.

Thats why most of us are saying bounties are not like before wherein it is still profitable and majority succeed. Its different now hence if you want to join in bounties make sure you're aware what to expect much better read what op says.
I agree there's still good bounty exist even now a day there a lot came out not good bounty. For me bounty is one of the easy way to do to get earn and it is good for newbie when they want to get earn bounty is good start for them. Also bounty is really good to get earn especially when your rank is higher because your earning surely become higher also.
407  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin can save some people's lives :-> on: February 16, 2020, 12:23:08 PM
I watched a Youtube video last night about the food merchants in some of the markets in Wuhan <China> and I noticed that most of them are using electronic payment methods to pay for goods. < Wechat Pay >

Ok, it is not Bitcoin, but if more merchants using Fiat currency can switch over to Bitcoin, you might see less infections. The reason for this is simple, because the Corona virus can be transmitted from person to person via cash being used on a daily basis.

People can also do online payments with Bitcoin to avoid handling physical cash and thus avoiding infection. It can also prevent people from being infected from a host of other viruses and bacteria that can survive for days on physical coins and notes.

This is just one more reason for people to move away from physical payment methods and shifting to a cash-less financial system in the future.  Wink

Following your logic, the world should become like the world in the movie Demolition Man. There, because of the fear of disease, people refused to shake hands, use paper money and etc. I agree that online payments are the future, but your reason why people should refuse fiat money looks ridiculous
I think yes bitcoin can save people lives by financial because it can get here an extra income and support you financially. But still its better to have permanent work than depend on it because it is still not yet accessible to used and not convenience to used in any store especially when you buying becuase bitcoin can used only when there's internet, also bitcoin is good to used for easy transaction so when someone want to transfer money then they will used bitcoin.
408  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to choose the right bounty for Newbie? Get rid of fake/scam project on: February 15, 2020, 08:22:44 PM
Based on my experience find a bounty or a project that has a good management, hard working developers, good idea and a on point roadmap, and feasible softcap and hardcap. There are some projects that the developers are worthless they just leave the token as it is no working progress and the token will just die just like that. and pick a project that has a reachable softcap because if they didn't reach the softcap the project might fail or swap into a new token and redo the bounty again in the future.
All of us are start from being newbie and before we get what we are now we experience a lot of fake project we encounter. So to those begginers they should have idea how it work before entering to a bounty project. First thing to do is know how to check the projectbof is legit or fraud. Read some Article and opinion of other people who give the tips on how to choose project befoe joining to it. Also i suggest to begginers to start from bounty project so your level will up because the higher the level the more profit to earn.
409  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What are your criteria to go back/sticking with one particular gambling house on: February 15, 2020, 04:43:27 PM
~snip~
All Casino site that I am currently active with I can say that is legit and trustworthy and has established trust within the Forum.
^ This is really true and definitely right. We have here many police members and when a new gambling platform will arrive there will always looking into it, especially when it comes to their services and of course. The provably fair that they will claim and stated in here. All mentioned the earlier replies and it is always matters good services and of course a low house edge. If your gambling platform in here requires KYC for the members, I am pretty assured no one will visit your gambling site. Because gamblers always wanted to hide their real identities.

I agree. The gambling sites bitcointalk forum reputations really matter. The reputation system on this forum works fairly well in my opinion, otherwise many people won't trust it this much. I guess the creators of the reputation system wants it to be perfect (which I believe can be done). Plus we have good vigilante forum members.
As long as I fell safe then I going back without heasitation because I know there's no need to worry about. For me the thing to do before going back to gambling site is to know or much better if you read some article about it. Sometimes people give some tips and opinion but of course; the choice is entirely up to you whether you believe to them or must better to follow what you really desire, which for me  I follow my instinct becuase most of the time its right.
410  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Crypto gambling websites need to add self-control functionality! on: February 15, 2020, 04:59:36 AM
<…>
No mechanism or system can stop human for doing what they are addicted to, so I think you should focus on yourself development with regards to gambling, This closing account feature will not be useful (for me). I believe that the majority of the gamblers will agree with me.

Don't you think this is sarcastic? I mean, how can someone going to have his self-development if he keeps playing gambling. As you mentioned above, an addicted person would do anything to feed his addiction, and that being said, it means that in order for him to create something in his life that will benefit him in the long run, he should closed his account or stop playing gambling for good also.

Because to be honest, implementing the self-control functionality in a gambling site would make the gambling addiction problem even more chaotic than before.
For me having self control is one way to achieve your goal and icreases decision making capacity. When we practice self-control it becomes easy to us to decisions because our minds swap to simpler process. And I think when we do it regularly there is a better chance at being able to move past and they avoid situations in which they have to choose between desires.
411  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Cryptocurrency will not replace fiat currency on: February 14, 2020, 09:55:40 PM
I agree that fiat will stay but in my opinion crypto currencies will dominate because it is the revolutionary tech and do not forget that it is all in one package when it comes to payments, global transfers, as an asset or investment plus all the financial services it brings and icing on the cake is the deflationary nature which makes it much much superior than fiat because fiat is designed to drop in value over time.
Crypto could be leader in many countries and could be in pool position but fiat still exist because its need on many ways in developed countries we have already too much use of debti/credit cards and as few countries also working on centralized cryptocurrency so this is going to happen but fiat will still on cards as its not going any where.

For me fiat money still exist because it is our identity of our country while crypto will become popular and known but it can replace fiat. The reason why it cant be used as fiat because it is unstable and no fix value, not working especially in our daily lives but the good thing about crypto is can give us extra income, can used sending money. Maybe after many years of being recognize, there is possibility crypto will be used as fiat because we are now around of technology.
412  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: IDEA for a lottery that does not depend on luck on: February 14, 2020, 05:42:47 PM
Well, copying is boring. Innovation is more exciting, even if it becomes a failure.
with the growing industry of gambling , many new sites are popping up with limited ideas but most of them just copy and slightly modify the other . that is why they fail too easy because they lack of originality .  its alway a good idea if you came up with something original and its okay if itl fail but atleast its original  . besides there are still a room for improvement  . just include beta on your site if your not done with the improvement and people will understand that  .
We cant blame those creator of new gambling site even some of them are not reliable or untrustworthy even some of them they create it intentionally just to get something from us. So we must be very careful, but we dont need to worry about that because still many gambling site are worth it, only remind that we should know how to notice the real and safe one, dont easily attract to there prices that they can give.
413  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is it good to talk about big gains? on: February 14, 2020, 03:49:12 PM
~snip~

Pretty much, when talking about big gains, you must consider the type of people you are talking to. There is indeed a need to be sensitive about the things that come out with your mouth, especially when it won't do you any good. But, if talking about big gains would bring positive impact to others, such as, it would give motivation for others to move forward, try themselves and improve, you might consider not to hold back.

When it comes to gambling games, it is no need to say anything to other people, especially about winning, but you can tell them about your losses. You can say that it is hard to win in one gambling game, but the truth is you win that games.

I don't think that talking about big gains would bring a positive impact to others because we can make those people chasing the win money because they want to get the win like us. So that can make them spend too much money. Perhaps, we can share our winning with other people who can control themselves while they learn something from us.
I agree no need to tell about your winning or how big you gain, it cant help because not all people are understanding, some of them think that in negative way. So I think we must be a humble all the time not only for ourself but for everyone because it is the least we can do, its better to tell them how you achieve to have and teaching them thw proper way to get what you have right now.
414  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: After losing did you feel you must return the soonest to win back your losses? on: February 14, 2020, 01:16:27 PM
I found it as one of the most interesting question from this article. http://www.gamblersanonymous.org/ga/content/20-questions

Do you guys have that kind of feeling when you are losing in gambling?

Yeah, the urge to get back at the soonest possible time is strong. I guess that's why doubling up on your bet or resorting to the classic Martingale strategy are sometimes attractive after losing. However, in my experience, its strength dwindles down as time passes by. Immediately after losing, I really want to gamble more to recover my losses. But when there is some interruptions in between, like you take your lunch, or you need to do some errands, or you had to attend a meeting, that urge may actually go away. Your loss would just be a loss.
Well its part of the game whether you want it or not there is possibility you might win or lose. Maybe the best thing to do is to have goal and time management than returning without a plan. In my experience returning without a goal is wasting of money, so to win back my loses i'll make sure i have strategy and know my limit. Also gamble when you are ready and do it only for fun not for hobby to not become addicted to it.
415  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who among us here has been addicted but successfully cured addiction? on: February 14, 2020, 01:59:33 AM
I was addicted before but luckily it was not a serious addiction that turns me into a monster, lol... what I mean monster is that I do drugs, don't sleep much, steal money, other illegal things just to finance gambling. The worst thing I did in the past was just to loan money to gamble which I know might not be able to repay it on time since I have my responsibility to my family which that time my salary is not really big.

I get out of it through my own realization and I think for the future of my family,.. so one day I wake up I am not that stupid anymore and I am happy that I still gamble now but not like before that I can be out of control anytime, I am more matured now, and thanks to my experience.
Im not addicted but i do gamble almost every week, i think time management is one of the reason why im not become addicted to it. Also i do it just for entertainment only or if I have extra money just to have fun. Being addicted in gambling is really alarming because its not easy to avoid it once you started and enjoyed it. So my advice is to have control , time mangement and make a plan on how you spend your money through it.

skip

Hello, can you confirm who is currently in the campaign? I applied and wanted to make sure I was accepted.

Thanks.

You are not included in the criteria for this campaign because you did not meet the requirements ie not getting merit in the last 120 days so the manager will not choose you.
Double check the rules of this campaign to avoid repeating questions like this again.
Yeah, we all know the requirement in this said campaign, but as far as what I have been observed, manager also, look for the post quality of the applicant, not because he earned so much merit Mr. Zwei will accept him, or not because he did not earned enough or earned any merit he is not qualified, maybe he lacks something but the thing is quality poster is much more needed than a person who has many merit, merits will come when you have something good that has been said , contribute or done in this forum.But then final decision is in the BM, no one else. Just a piece of my view, no offense , no pun intended.
417  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Leave gambling, if it destroys you. on: February 13, 2020, 12:47:52 PM
Yes it is a long term process because there is no instant that a player can really stop playing gambling because they need to do first is to minimize and reduce playing until they can stop playing and they need advice to understand if they still being addictive there is not good future that comes to him.

Addicted playing is not good but if you are player who play sometimes only so you will be safe from losing a lot of money. Relatives can really help by giving advice and help to recover and how he can really stop playing.
Well if you are player then it can destroy you because you know the what possible happen. Also if you know its not safe then dont pursue to gamble, rest for while but dont stop because when you understand the correct gamble or you know how to manage then gambling can give you good future. Even gambling is addictive but if you know your limit and have goal then surely you will overcome yoir loses.
418  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What's in the game, after all? on: February 13, 2020, 05:52:57 AM
I also do agree people get addicted when they make gambling as their whole time job so we should play gambling but in the limit. When you get the time and become boring then try to start gambling. After one-time tr one should take a break and stop for a while. In the very beginning, a gambler should have control over their emotions and never get addicted to gambling.
I agree being addicted in gambling is because of greedy,  we cant blame them but we can be a better than them by having a goal and time management when do gambling. In real life many people become addictive in anything because they want to satisfy their needs, also in gambling so if you limit yourself and do it for entertainment then no need to be worry.

In the long run people are set to lose

"In the long run" means making a huge amount of bets, and this is where the house edge starts to massively overwhelm luck and chance. It simply can't be any other way as otherwise casinos would be quickly ruined, which is apparently not the case in real life

Put differently, you can only win if you are lucky, while that means being short-term and running away as soon as you win big. If you don't win big shortly and continue gambling, losses will be adding up. So when you finally hit a lucky streak, it will be nowhere near enough to offset the total loss accumulated over time

Not only be lucky, I think the more impressive one is, when you have acknowledge the skills also as well as the luck, I do not believe in pure luck in gambling, I also believe in skills that can be use throughout the game.
419  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and health 🤕symptoms on: February 13, 2020, 03:20:37 AM
If you're getting used to drinking alcohol it couldn't be associated with gambling all the way, because that's a lifestyle. A gambler always tend to become addicted by the habit itself, and I don't know with other things on how it's going to be adopted if both alcoholism or any bad habits that could affect the health will lead to extreme cases.
Most probably an addicted gambler would consume more hours with this wrong time management, and this would certainly give them the potential of being ill in the future and symptoms might be surprising.
I agree an addictive gambler possible to hàve effect to their health because they to much spend time to gamble which is not good. I think its better to have time control on how many hours they should be in gambling. I recommend to all to have time management and plan, quitting is not the reason to not become addictive but to have goal.
420  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Real reasons to Why do you gamble? on: February 12, 2020, 11:32:14 PM
~~i think nobody here is gambling just because for the relaxing, those who are saying that they are playing just for the entertainment then i think they are presenting the lame excuse because gambling is for making money.
I agree with you. The main reason people to gamble should be for money since it takes capital to play and not really appropriate for fun. If someone wants to have fun, the must prefer to go outside or play online/ofline games. Moreover, someones shouldn't be fun if he loses in gambling continously.  Cheesy
Maybe they say it truly but yeah people play it to earn money not only to have fun and my reason for it is to make money. I work in my office and before leaving for home I visit the casino and spend the little amount I often win and I get profit so I did not make gambling my only way of getting money but I have my job and I use to gamble for getting extra income.
The reason I do gamble because of the money even taking the risk just to have higher earning. Since gambling in crypto is much higher value than usually money we used for daily lives, some people taking the risk just to persuade their needs through gambling. Also gamble is good for entertainment because of the excitement you experience everytime you do gamble,  just make sure know your limit.
