401  Economy / Speculation / Re: TA indicates a bull run is coming on: August 03, 2020, 11:28:57 AM
All analysis and charts it's nice to see however I'm still not convinced this is bull run. Despite the positive trend and general price rise price still moves back and forth and there is no continuous strong growth. That might happen in upcoming period but we might as well see price pulling back so for a while I'll be careful.with predictions.
402  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why People Call Bitcoin Blockchain? on: August 03, 2020, 07:52:06 AM
In simple words blockchain is technology and Bitcoin is cryptocurrency based on that technology. Some people mix these two things or better to say they think that Bitcoin is equal to blockchain and vice versa. Of course, that is not true but because of that many informations connected with implementation and use of blockchain are interpreted in wrong way. Bitcoin can't function without blockchain but on the other hand blockchain as an independent technology can be used in many ways and in many industries.
403  Economy / Speculation / Re: Where do you see Bitcoin price by the end of 2020? on: August 02, 2020, 08:53:37 PM
By the end of the year price will stay in the range between 10000$ and 12000$, that is my opinion. Despite positive current trend I don't expect huge price jump but neither a fall. There is possibility for price to touch 15000$ but that will probably be on short term basis and it will not last long. If pandemic gets worse that also might impact Bitcoin price, at least indirectly, so it's hard to tell but I don't expect some major changes compared to current situation.

Every site that is trustworthy, secure and have good customer support, KYC that is a must for your own protection should be a good one. The choice and offer of eSports depends on.your test so every player would like something else. So before I choose the site to play I first check all the above mentioned.

Why EU is not suffering like USA from this virus?

EU is also suffering but has completely different approach to the pandemic. EU reacted very early and US was denying that something is actually happening. Alsow, EU started recovery programme for its economy and it's trying to support its member.states ro get out of pandemic and economic crysis. And what are US government and Trump doing? I think you know the master
406  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: New Gambling idea - How it can be "patented"? on: August 02, 2020, 11:26:06 AM
It's possible but it's not easy. My country has a intellctual property office where a person or a company can apply and protect the patent, trademark or similar. Since this is in EU, once you protect it It's valid in every EU member state. However, that doesn't mean that others will not try to copy you.
So, basicly the whole procedure depends on the country you live in.
407  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Twitter Hackers Arrested! [Updated] on: August 02, 2020, 08:37:15 AM
Well, this boy is computer wizard and high probability he is not working alone just to pull off that kind of big attack from famous people and waiting for others to be arrested as well. Too sad to see his hacking skills got wasted again due to fraud attacks but justice must be served at all times because it's a crime he must face it for a long sentence in jail to repent of his wrong doings.

Of course, just because he iis high skilled that isn't a justification or reason for mild sentence. Crime is a crime and ww witness all the time how very few cyber criminals get caught and sentenced.
And maybe the was working alone, without accomplice but further investigation should reveal more facts.
408  Economy / Economics / Re: returning to normal on: August 01, 2020, 09:55:24 PM
There is not a single domain out there that have not been affected by this pandemic in a way or another. Even crypto currencies are facing a backwards when it comes to investments and I don't see a lot of people to risk their cash in this times to buy Bitcoin or other cryptos but those who are taking this risk, in my opinion, will have a nice income in the next years so until then take care of you.

Some think that exactly Bitcoin might be solution for the upcoming crisis. It's hard to tell if it's so, the time will tell. However, if you have some extra money now it's good to diversify your investment and make kind of back up that will be your safety when crisis comes. If this pandemic will continue the economy situation might only get worse so everyone of us should have back up scenario.
409  Economy / Speculation / Re: A move (almost) no one is expecting: gap at $11795 on: August 01, 2020, 08:41:06 PM
A quick drop back to test the lows is what I expect but at present its not expected at all which would make it quite effective in terms of shock value.   I dont think we get as high as 11.7k and if we do then its a bigger achievement then the market has achieved so far.   I'd have to counter that we got as high as 11.7k then we have further business at that level, it will have beaten this range of some months which then would likely prove as support after we exceed it.   
(....)
I am more positive to see $9,000 before $11,700 - $12,000. Maybe we can get more below but this can be happen with again, a huge red candle wicks.
Since July 28, 2020, bitcoin's price still on sideways $10,000+ - $11,100+, this is much better as long as we don't fall again below $9,000 but there are still huge dump effect once we fall again that area, just my 2 cents.
Small pullbacks will be healthy for Bitcoin, let's hope we will not experience a huge wicks, green or red candle wicks.
Expect the unexpected yet market has always been like this on where it do wreck hopes of anybody on least time we do unexpect.Im already readying up myself on possible dump wayback on 9k.

Im not really that too negative but its better rather than to hope that much market is way too unpredictable. 11,700 isnt really that far off since the price is already playing around 11,300+ at the moment and reaching

$300-400 wont really be that too long but who knows on on what would happen yet huge rejection might or might not happen and able to break it out and proceed to 12k price.

Better to have conservative estimates rather than be surprised on what's coming.
So as a trader/investor you can have your own contingencies and be prepared with what may happen to your funds.
Of course, you need to secure your investments especially that we are still in crisis and losing money is the last thing we want to have.
But, it has been a year that we experienced this price level, and so crypto users are happy for what we are experiencing right now.
Another day, another hope for crypto!

I agree that in this moment it's better to be conservative than to have exaggerated expectations. We've seen so many times recently Bitcoin price pulling back under 10000$ in short period of time so we can't say how is this going to end now. Although at the moment price is heading towards 12000$ we should be careful with investment so I would wait for a while before making any conclusions and taking a big risk.

For me there's no such thing as strategy in gambling it's a matter of win or lose. However there are some strategies on betting not a strategy to win but a strategy to make profit after losing an example of it is the Martingale where in after you lose you need to double your bet and so but you can configure this and make your own martingale strategy using the same concept of course.

In using this you need a bit of luck and a lot of fund.

For you there's no strategy, but there're some strategies you can apply after losing streak? You are a bit contradictory here, don't you think?
There's strategy for every gambling game, because there're different gambling games. In gambling, like in trading, if you rely just on luck you will have more loses in long run. You need to have some strategy, some plan in your head, bankroll management is important, know your bankroll, know your bets and odds, make a plan and try to win, if it's not working today, it will work tomorrow and with good strategy and bankroll management you can recover your loses and make additional profit. Luck is important of course, but's it's not all about luck, you need to have a good approach if you wish to make profit in long run.

With time every gambler deveopes his own strategy, or at least some of them. However, that doesn't mean these strategies actually work. When it comes to sport betting knowledge and strategies work but not that much when it comes to other types of gambling, in.great deal that depends on luck.
Nevertheless,  there is always needed some strategy and goal how will you play, how much will you spend and when you will stay it's enough.
411  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: More than 50% of bitcoins from Twitter hack have been sent through mixers on: August 01, 2020, 07:06:50 AM
If anything, I'm actually quite surprised that some of those hackers/scammers risked moving out the funds(14.4%) without actually mixing/coinjoining them lol. It just shows that some of those scammers probably don't have the slightest idea on what they're doing and some just got lucky tricking security-illiterate Twitter people by using the typical giveaway scam.

They were probably very self confident thinking no one will disover what thry are doing and no one will track theur lead. Unfortunately this just shows that in many cases hackers and scamers still have pretry easy job. The big mistakes were made by Twitter two and they will need to explain a lot of issues in their security
Bitcoins that were going through mixers will probably never be traced
412  Economy / Economics / Re: Europe’s economy is moving faster than US economy - Covid-19 effect!!! on: July 31, 2020, 11:10:44 PM
Most european countries have helped their businesses to recover afte lock down in sense of financing part of employee's sallary of financial support to continue the work.
Also, EU has brought its own recovery plan and special dedicated funds that each member state will participate according to certain ratio, both in special loans and grants. All that helped to the optimism and for european economy to start to recover. I don't know that US has any of similar program or support. Of course, US and EU have different approach when it comes to economy and finances but EU government has do nothing to directly help the economy and employees and that will have deep consequences and this with pandemic is very special situation that will have very deep and long term consequences.
413  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sports betting biggest winners. on: July 31, 2020, 08:15:19 PM
This list is for those who win, but there will be a long list of losers. Cheesy
Of course, these are the luckiest people who have won such a huge amount of money, I wish my name should also be on this list next time.
Although this is a matter of luck, will these people still play gambling?



Everyone would like to be on that list but yes, such winners are very rare. Losses happen much more often but everyone dreams to find themselves among these few lucky fellows and experience the big touch of luck. Every time we gamble we hope fot big winning that would change our lives but unfortunately very few will really experience something like that in their lives.
414  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Chess on Sports/eSports betting on: July 31, 2020, 04:28:34 PM
Haven't think of this one. I wonder why there's no chess on a sports betting even though we are aware that there are some tournaments having especially through this pandemic we currently have I think they found it boring watch though but for me I think it's a great idea to include it along with the eSports betting.

There's not much excitement among bettors in Chess, so they only include sports that has a lot of excitement like basketball boxing among others, anyway they have their own big chess sites in the internet and we have many club all over the world and Fide the chess governing body, is one the largest sports federation in the world.

That is true, chess isn't very exciting and dynamic sport so probably it doesn't attract many gamblers. In.fact I don't know anyone who bets on chess and who is actually following that sport. However, since its listed on sport betting sides there are probably enough players who like to bet on chess although for me that would be too boring and I wouldn't know where to start.
415  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Am I missing something ? futures trading on: July 31, 2020, 12:58:33 PM
Be cautious, some traders started exactly the way you felt right now, some quitted on the latter, and some proceeds. I understand this is quite an excitement reaction after doubling your profit from trading. So, from that, yeah you're doing a good job. But, always remember not to get overwhelmed and trade with a higher volume without practicing your risk tolerance.
My advice to you is to continue what you're doing. Practice, analyze the technical and fundamental aspects, market movements and sentiments. Experience will lead you to a professional trading career, who knows, you have a lot of time.

To my experience this might continue in two different ways. Either he will be very disappointed after first big loss and quit trading either he will realise that trading isn't only profit, that it takes a lot of hard work and learning, that there are hard times too and he'll become dedicated to trading. Every person who just starts trading reacts in different ways on challenges that come along.
416  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Should there be any age limit of Gambling? on: July 31, 2020, 12:14:33 PM
Countries that can go as five? I don't think that they are countries but only a country. And that country is Malawi from Southern Africa. They are the only country that allows five years old to gamble which made it legal for those kids to start at a young age. Correct me with that narrative or did I missed some countries that allow it legally. Talking about legality, it is the only country that I've seen but we know it that kids can gamble even at a young age but without the patronage of their parents and wouldn't care if they break the law.
Kids at young age as 5 can really gamble and it doesnt need  to be legal yet even a country doesnt have strict laws about gambling then they can play all they want it will depend or vary on the parents itself if they do let their  children do play gambling at a very young age.Im not that informed that there are children who aged 5 did really able to gamble, thats really a serious issue into their parents side because young minds as early as 5
shouldnt really be doing such stuff.Its just really an irresponsible for its parents.Poor fella, where he/she isnt aware on what awaits ahead if gambling addiction tied  you up.
We will never know what these kids are doing if they are infront of the computer or outside our homes if we are not with them. Just like us, during our kid days, we are doing crazy things that we are not letting our parents know so this could be something that's really happening in some places.
And for that country that made it legal, it's their decision to do it as they know more what their society is tackling. We have no idea if the cases like this is rampant there or just made it for fairness or solution for it as an existing problem.

It's not true that parents can't control their children and know what they are doing. Today they are many tools to cut the access for some sites like gambling or porn sites. And parents are responsible for their children behaviour.
I'm not for the idea that gambling is legal for children and minors. Why wouldn't we then also allow them to smoke and drink alcohol?
417  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will Bitcoin replace Gold someday? on: July 31, 2020, 09:23:39 AM
I don't think there is any connection between Bitcoin and gold and these two completely different types of assets and value storages that attract completely different types of investors. I don't think that will ever happen that Bitcoin replaces gold but that is not even the intention. Cryptocurrencies and gold can't be compared and Bitcoin is no competition to gold at all.
418  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: how to win at casino on: July 30, 2020, 08:00:40 PM
I think that professional gamblers have their own litlle secrets and strategies but that is not something they would reveal. It seems like you are looking for someone to tell you how to make money in gambling but I don't think you will find what you are looking for. There is no magic receipe or easy way how to win in gambling, you need to discover that on your own.
419  Other / Archival / Re: Bank Account Freezed on: July 30, 2020, 06:06:53 PM
How are you sure that bank or Cybercrime police had freeze your account due to bitcoin trading? Or are you guessing? If trading bitcoin isn't illegal in your country then the account shouldn't freeze. It would be possible the source of the fund who sent to you during peer to peer trading have a problem. Who knows if the buyer-seller is a criminal. Perhaps, there is some suspicious activity on your account noticed by cybercrime. If you are sure about your incoming funds to your account then you don't have to worry, just try to contact your bank by which department your account has been blocked then contact with them properly.

I don't think that the bank account is freezed because of Bitcoin trading. In most countries authorities need a very hard, solid reason to freeze account and in most cases a warant too. So I beleive that there is some suspicion.about illegal activities, money laundering and similar, not necessary of the owner of account. Anyway, people should check all the facts and background before they share information like this.
420  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why do hackers steal huge amounts of bitcoins? on: July 30, 2020, 07:25:30 AM
What kind of question is that, why hackers steal Bitcoins? It would be like you ask why bank robbers rob the bank. They want.money, of course, and it's still easier and safer to hack Bitcoin wallets than rob the bank or similar.
Also we have to be honest and say that many Bitcoin services like exchanges and similar as well as private persons don't care enough for security so in many cases hackers actually have easy job.
