How to go from poor to millionaire fast in crypto?

Watch “from zero to hero” videos on youtube. There are experts that  give you the exact details of becoming a millionaire (or even a billionaire) in a year or maybe even sooner.

Don’t take any advice from this forum because people that make posts here don’t know shiet. They are dirt poor anyway. Why would you take any advice from a poor guy? You if they knew shit they would have done it themselves.

Phil Anselmo left singing and managing portfolios now? I knew his rebellious attitude was fake. All he wanted was a suit and a tie.

You can’t trust anyone these days. Sad

Good news is Dimebag isn’t alive to see this mess

I think binance is a serious exchange and they won't go down easily. FTX was a clown since the beginning. I've never ever created an account at FTX and the moment I heard people talking about FTX, I was like wtf "where did this thing come from?" If it was something decent I would have heard of it. Same thing goes to crypto.com. I haven't heard of anybody using their services but I see now outside of this forum that they are kind of big. FTX was like crypto.com too and It wasn't a coincidence that crypto.com was targeted right after FTX. It is because they are pretty similarly shitty.

Binance on the other hand has real users. Real trades happen there. So it is not one of those wash trading exchanges.

May it go down? Sure. However there are other exchanges that should go down first.
1144  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Hypothetical Question on: February 27, 2023, 11:44:16 AM
If you were told the outcome of a soccer match, hours before the match was scheduled, and you were assured that it would 100% win, how much would you be willing to bet on it? Assuming it was a 100% can’t lose situation.

Assuming you had millions of dollars that you could put on the match, where would you place the bets? Bookies often limit players. How could one successfully place millions of dollars in bets without drawing up suspicions or having their money frozen? Just curious.

Everything? That's what I would do "normally".

However... if I learned one thing about these bets, they are never 100% sure.  Cool Lots of stuff can go wrong. Even if you win the bet, the bookie may cancel your bet because they also hear the same rumors.

So when think about the other issues which can indirectly affect your bet, that 100% (wager everything) may easily fall down to 1%.

Holding cash has its own benefits. First of all, cash is a position. It provides you an opportunity to buy cheap assets and there are always cheap assets around. On addition, crypto isn't as adopted as we would like to believe. The world still runs on FIAT and even though it is centralized, it is way faster and easier to spend. Most people will just prefer to swipe their credit card instead of dealing with crypto. This might change in the future but it is the way it is for now.
1146  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will Bitcoin [eventually] collapse? (scholar’s opinion) on: February 25, 2023, 11:01:39 AM
There is a coin for everybody's taste in the markets. If you are somehow not happy with bitcoin, you can always use ethereum or any other eth-like crypto where you can create tokens and do all other flashy stuff. Bitcoin is about making transactions only.

If any other coin don't amaze you and you also find them lacking features, then create your own crypto. Fill that empty space, be a hero and get rich!

Don't blame bitcoin for not having certain features.

Eth's founder Vitalik didn't like the state of bitcoin back in the day and he created his own blockchain and look how well he did.

What's stopping you?
1147  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you keep your gambling habit under control? on: February 25, 2023, 10:48:45 AM
Seeing how many people who are problem gamblers today did not have the intention of becoming gamblers who lack self control but somehow they are now gamblers who cannot control themselves, It means that everyone is at the danger of become such if it is not put in check.

How do you keep your gambling habit in check such that becoming addicted and out of control is something that never happens?

 (share your strategy for others to benefit from)

It is very easy. I don't dream of getting rich from gambling. I know it is possible if you are lucky but I also know the opposite has a good possibility. (getting poor) Long time ago I learned that if you want to have a near 100% win rate while making money, you need to work. If you work, you get paid. Not always but you have way better chances to get paid than gambling.

So I think... if gambling isn't going to benefit me in the long run... why would I participate? Here I solved everybody's gambling problems.
1148  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you have any financial regrets ? on: February 25, 2023, 08:10:03 AM
Most people do. I could have done this, I should have done that but for some reason I haven't. It is not healthy to overthink our past mistakes. Maybe they weren't mistakes at all. Maybe those mistakes were the part of our learning process.

Oscar Wilde once said:

"Experience is the name we give to our mistakes."

The other saying is:

"To make money, you need to spend (or lose) money first."

1149  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: My $300 bet won $417,000 on: February 25, 2023, 06:44:31 AM
Amazing story. These are the stories that make people play even more because you cannot know when will you hit the jackpot and wake up a millionaire the next day.

Freebitco.in also have these bets for the events in the far future (like the elections) and I played them before. They work flawlessly. If you are into that kind of betting, you should try them.

I have a few bets totalling over $30,000 on Donald Trump to win the Republican Nomination next year. I think he will comfortably beat DeSantis so fingers crossed.


Great Idea. I also made a bet for Donald's first election in 2016 and I won that bet. I tried the same thing later for the election in 2020 but I lost that one. It is gambling in the end. To me, he deserved to win the last election too but somehow that demented fuck won it without even leaving his basement. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Well... shit happens.

Hopefully this time we will get it right.
1150  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Does inflation affects bitcoin? on: February 25, 2023, 06:40:14 AM
Many nations at point of time are going through cashless policy and this policy affects price of things in different market regions of the world.
Can inflation which is the high demand of price over few goods or products actually controls the stability of bitcoin pumping or going down?
Because I believed where people are facing high price over fewer goods makes it difficult for people to trade bitcoin with little or no capital! So can inflation makes the market cap of bitcoin not having a reality face of surviving?

Inflation affects every asset and everybody. When the price of a loaf of bread rises, your food costs rise. When you pay more for your food, you will have less money to invest. If you have less money to invest, you buy less bitcoins. If you buy less bitcoins, bitcoin's price goes down. You can replace bitcoin with any other financial asset.

The only way to break this chain is getting a raise from your employer but let's be honest now... Not everybody can do that. Most people will just accept their loss to the inflation and won't try to get a raise or find a different job.

That's because a low paying job is better than having no job and the employers know that very fucking well.
1151  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Is there any NON-KYC method to buy stocks using bitcoin? on: February 25, 2023, 04:29:25 AM
Probably not possible. Even if it existed, it wouldn't be safe by all means. Let's say the company providing this service suddenly disappeared. How are you going to sue them? In the eye of the lawyers, you don't even own any stocks because that company isn't a SEC registered stock exchange which means they are already doing something illegal.

Every stock exchange I know wants to know everything about you. They want your ID scan, your income statements, your home address, bills, anything... You want them to skip this and even more, you want them to accept bitcoin? It is not happening.

I think you should go to binance.   Cool

1153  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Game that you suffer consistent losses but still keep playing? on: February 24, 2023, 04:50:39 PM
Rocket/bustabit/crash style games did this to me. I have seen the rocket staying in the air for so long and giving out x100 profits seeing that drove me crazy so I kept playing. Somehow the moment I participated in the next round, that damn rocket crashed in 10 seconds. Cheesy Of course I don't blame the casino for that. It is just my bad luck. Sometimes you jump off the rocket and it keeps flying and that is also frustrating. This is what makes these games addicting in the end. In the end it is not much different than playing a simple dice game but the entertainment you get is pretty damn addicting.
1154  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Litecoin and no downtime till now in 11 years on: February 23, 2023, 01:03:33 PM
I can't deny it. Litecoin is one of the best alts out there even though it is just a btc copy/paste coin. The reason is the high adoption. Almost every casino and exchange out there lists and accepts litecoin. People actually use ltc to pay for the stuff. It is probably more adopted than dogecoin even though dogecoin is far cheaper to transact with.
1155  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: how do I keep my private key safe? on: February 23, 2023, 04:08:08 AM
I have wondered for long, if there is  anyway to recover my private keys when they get lost or when I don't remember them. Someone advised me to use Gmail and store them as mails then I taught again, what if my Gmail gets hacked. Is this actually the best way to store them or is there any other ways I can store or Keep them safe?

Depends.

There isn't one solution that's safe for every situation. It is not possible.

Let's say you memorized your seed words... your brain can always go dumb and then boom you are poor.
Let's say you wrote them on a piece of paper. That piece of paper might get burned, might get lost... Your dog could eat it.
Let's say you kept it inside an USB stick. That stick might get broken.
What if you keep it in your PC? Could get hacked.
What if you keep it in a bank safe? lol (don't do this)
...

What if I do all of these?

Then you will have lots of targets which could be attacked.

In my own experience, you should do 2 of these. (except for the bank safe thing) One of them should be your main preparation and the other one should be a backup.
1156  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 5 Ways to Make Big Money at the Casino — Without Gambling on: February 23, 2023, 01:36:09 AM
I hope you are joking because You can get killed while trying to pull any if these stunts. The best way to make money from a casino without playing, is investing in a casino. Just be a partner so you can have your share of the profits. There used to be so many of those user bankrolled crypto casinos but I don’t see them anymore sadly. The casino owners are so greedy nowadays.
1157  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why Do Gamblers Do This? on: February 22, 2023, 05:50:10 PM
In this forum and other forums where gambling is one of the topics of discussion, one of the recurrent topics is people who write about how their gambling addiction has ruined their lives. We usually encounter topics like "Gambling ruined my life,"  "I lost all my life savings to gambling,"  "I gambled away my entire salary," etc. Then they go on to tell a sad tale. It makes me wonder: why do gamblers tend to wait until they have suffered a catastrophic loss or a string of losses before quitting or seeking help?

That's problem with the sick people. They usually don't admit that they are sick. They think it is an insult to admit that. How can you treat a person that don't want to be cured? No matter what you say, they will ignore you and do what they are going to do. I've seen this before. It is impossible. Worse yet, they will blame you for everything bad that happened to them even though you were only trying to help. Just leave them alone and hope that they will get smarter by losing.
1158  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What If There Is A Ban on: February 21, 2023, 04:30:53 AM
There isn't much you can do in a scenario like that.* Bitcoin will survive but its adoption will take a huge hit. The network will become so small, It will probably go back to its CPU-mining days. It is because everybody will be afraid to use it.

I told this before. Bitcoin itself is bulletproof and there is nothing that can stop it. However, they can stop its devs, its users, companies etc and the desired effect will be the same as killing bitcoin.

*Actually there is one thing you can do. Arm up and kill whoever is in the way of your freedom. The question is, are you tough enough to fight for your freedom or are you going to be sheep and suck it up?
1159  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Give it a break. on: February 20, 2023, 11:19:16 AM
Give yourself a break.
This is one measure or strategy I use in my gambling technique to curtail losses upon more losses. Immediately I realize I have made many streaks like about 5 to 7 streaks for the week and I haven't made any win at least out of these numbers of streaks the next action is to give it a break for another new week to come. Believing that it's not my week and there's no need trying more as I will only end up break my bank for nothing at the end.
I do this for a long time now and it works for me by saving me from incurring wasteful losses and also having/saving me some money  for the next week to come. Indirectly this strategy also help to moderate my gambling habit and uncontrollable addiction tendency, and it also provide me the chance of having money for any winning opportunity that might come up for the new as I gamble.

At this point what do you think about this gambling strategy I use? Although yours may not be with 5-7 streaks in a week you can also set a number of streaks convenient with you to use. Or is there anyone out there already using this strategy and how beneficial has it being to you?

No strategy can work against the house edge. You are either lucky or you are not. Instead of getting obsessed with finding the right strategy (which don't exist) you should focus on risk management. Because the more you lose you spend even more to make up for your losses and then you lose even more. Here is your mistake.

When you lose too much, you should just walk away and come back when you are ready.
1160  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: yahoo62278 scammed the forum with his fake donation (part 2) on: February 20, 2023, 10:51:42 AM
I don't know what yahoo is up to or if he is lying or not but always assume that your money is gone when you donate money to somebody. It is meaningless to cry now.

Let's say you were scammed by yahoo, what you can do about it? Nothing other than giving him a red trust rating/creating a flag. He already said he is not giving it back.

Now go cry in a corner.

Every day people come up with all kinds of excuses to borrow money without a collateral in this forum. You ignore them don't you? Do you get impressed by their story and send money every time you read a sad story? Why did you do it this time?
