341  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is working fine! No change needed! on: July 04, 2017, 01:04:26 PM
Well I think that we need to accept the new system. I know that bitcoin's progress is way beyond our expectations. But the transferring of money is one of our problem. It requires a lot of time for us to process our money. We just need to agree to the new system because it is for our own good also, but what the bitcoin price is what we really are afraid about. It is possible that bitcoin will drop to $500.
We really do need the new system, besides the large amount of time required for confirmation of TXs, there is also the high amounts of fees it has become completely pointless to transfer small amount of BTC It is completely unreasonable to pay $2 fees for a $10(or less)  transaction.
Yes bitcoin still wants to improve in many things, like this confirmation time decrease and transaction fee. What we are paying it is the high amount for small bitcoins transaction. People are hoping that issues will solve on this August first. Let's wait for one more month maybe we see a lot of changes in bitcoin. At present only the price is good, and I don't want to change this price that means it can increase but not decrease.

totally wrong on my perspective why ? because i already lost about 2 bitcoin on gambling but i dont know why i just cant stop to touch such thing i always ended up losing no matter how sure i am , now i try hard to stop this, and hopefully, all goes well, and I will get my moola back
Based on the experience people decide the gambling is right or wrong. According to you lost 2 bitcoins, so gambling is wrong. For me I too lost bitcoins but not like you. It's a few bitcoins. I can afford that loss so for me gambling is not wrong. I did not consider the gambling is a source of income, and i am treating gambling is a fun game.
343  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Poker strategy! on: July 03, 2017, 06:07:58 PM
I created my new strategy and that is to stay away from cash games and play only poker freeroll tournaments because when in freeroll get so many luck I come to cash games and some idiot get last 2 hands with dumb cards and he win my money.
avoid cash games means you starting the game for free only and actually i have been a part of free roll tournament several times ago and most of them only playing safe with only dare to call if they had good card but it's hard to be the champion of free tournaments of poker because most of the participant also had their own strategy

I really think players should take advantage from the free rolls, and start making their bankroll from scratch like that, but they need to step up eventually. It's very hard to play in freerolls or low stakes. Players have nothing to lose, and yes you can beat them in the long term, but the problem is that you can't beat them all.

In low stakes and freerolls it's easy to see players going all in all the time, and since they are many doing it, you will lose eventually. Since it's free, most of the players will continue playing like that, meaning that you will have a hard time progressing and testing your strategy, and you will need more luck than you should. So after building some bankroll, you should always try to go up in the stakes, in order to be able to play vs serious opponents.

Yes we have to use that facility free roll to learn the game. Here we can able to go with all in if we win it's small jackpot suppose if we lose no problem we can gain back free coins and play the game. With this free rolls you must treat all strategies and once you feel you ok to play with opponents then use your bankroll and play with small stakes.
344  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: BTC Gambling? on: July 03, 2017, 06:02:32 PM
some dice site allow player to bet with small amount of money. but if you want to try sportsbetting. they have minimal bet sometime it is 0.0005 BTC that i already know. son't know if there are lower than it
that is a low bit. i think there may be some bets whose minimum bet will be more than that because of the increase transaction fee, however is now very easy to play gambling with bitcoin specially if you are playing gambling online, bitcoin make gambling more modern. now we no need to visit casino for gambling but can easily ply it at home. but you need to choose a trusted site for gambling because there are so many scam gambling sites.
The new websites enter to online then you should be careful before depositing your bitcoins. No one knows how the site will work and it is good site or scam. So try to play in existing sites those sites are good, and you don't worry your bitcoins it is safer, and if anything happens there, customer service will help you. Yes, bitcoins makes people play online gambling easily without showing any identity.
345  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How do you Panic? on: July 03, 2017, 05:52:08 PM
Before I'm decide to trade altcoin or bitcoin, I'm prepare for lossing ! Cryptocurrency is a high risk trading and most people already aware of that !
When I'm buy some altcoin, I'm usually hold it as long as possible so whenever they get dump , I'm still insist to hold it compare to my friend that he's afraid for lossing
I think all of us is afraid to lost our investment but if you do trading you need to buy at low price then you will set the target amount to sell your bitcoin just put it in sell order that is what i am doing and by doing that i do not need to monitor the dump and pump of the coin i buy just check if my order is already sold.
This is a good idea but I think you need to wait for long time to hit your target. Or sometimes your good luck the price will reach your target it is fast income. But for this, we need to invest our extra money, and there is no time limit for this method. Our target will reach tomorrow, or next year we have to wait till that time then only we can make a profit.
346  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to increase BTC? on: July 03, 2017, 05:46:06 PM
Hey guys.

How can I increase my bitcoin money? I am a bit curious to those people who can easily make money “btc” grow fast. How do they it correctly?
Can I ask a bit of advice on how to manage it like what you do?
Of course I know many people here want to know too.

Maybe it is good to share a little of it. It would be great if we grow together.

If you want grow your bitcoin and also you want became a successful bitcoiner then you should enter into every type of earning ways , i mean you should do trading , signature campaign earning , forex and also faucet collection .
I absolutely agree that if you want to make more profit invest your money in trading site because trading is best source of income. As of now there are lot ways to earn bitcoin, you can also join in signature campaign in bitcoin that will help to make a good profit and it is very effective.
The signature campaign is fixed income. just spend some time and work for any campaign they will pay you good payment. This is one of the safe and easy to increase your bitcoins. Apart from this trading here the risk is there, but if you become a pro and do trading, you can make a profit. Investment is also an easy way to make money, but it is very expensive.
347  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to know about next pump? on: July 03, 2017, 05:42:02 PM
I am keen to know how to find which coin is going to get pumped next and when.
Is it possible to know for sure?has anyone here predicted accurately about next pump?
Unlike in forex where in there is a path for next pump, crypto currency don't show when the next pump will occur. However, in most cases the most progessive coin to pump are those coins which has a quiet marekt. This is the perefect coin for pumpers to make a profit.
I think no one can predict the when and which coin is going to pump next. And it is tough to predict we can just guess based on the market cap but no one can tell the accurate result. If this is possible, then people will not scare to do trading based on that information they will buy coins and make money.
348  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Loss almost 40%, should stop trading or not ? on: July 03, 2017, 05:37:59 PM
Well 40% is too much and you should be stop trading because it seems that its not your cup of tea. Well its an art which not everyone can master it as it require skills to understand and knowledge to trade . Though it involves risk but so are the returns from it if you get it right.


Nope don't give up mate, 40% loss is high amount but now you come out from trading next you will never try and miss many opportunities to make money from trading. With this loss, I think you learned many lessons what to do and what not do. So use your strategies and try to get back your loss. Suppose if you lost money in gambling I will never say that play again and get back your lost. But in trading, you can. Work dedicatedly and earn money.
349  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which Sport is the easiest to wager/win on: July 01, 2017, 10:03:44 AM
If you follow Tennis on the ATP/WTA tour level, I feel that they are pretty easy to bet on. There are some surprises and the probability of the win changes with respect to the surface they are playing but I feel in general, it is easy to figure it out if you have watched both of the players play before. Cricket also seems to be a easy sport to bet on when it comes to the longer formats like 50 overs or Tests but T20's are a little but unpredictable. I like basketball too but mostly the European league as NBA has a lot of weird refs that support one team or another. I have seen them blatantly dish out Technical fouls to players or not call a foul at an important moment in the game, changing the course of events in a very close game. NBA is just for entertainment in my opinion anyway.
Yes Tennis game we can easy to guess based on players experience and performance, but nowadays the young players and new comers are playing superbly and giving many unexpected results to beating top class players. So now it becomes a bit tough to predict this game. Not only this game all format of games sports are same.
350  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why we still gambling while we always lose? on: July 01, 2017, 09:59:42 AM
when you do betting You always lose
why we still go through on betting place?!!!

that is an excellent question and there is a very simple answer for it:
you are addicted to gambling, and you have not yet figured it out.
which is why unless you hit rock bottom, and lose all your money you wouldn't be quitting gambling.

p.s. by "you" i mean someone who can not give it up and continues betting despite alway losing money.

Yes maybe "he" is addicted to gambling, but din't forget that everyone is a bit greedy, maybe he is more greedy so he risks his money to win back what he lost. Addiction is not only when you can't stop playing for that day, but also when you think about it often, get post gambling depresion after you lost and so on. Of course, most of people that are addicted are also greedy, but it's not the only sign of addiction
Right many people are addicted to gambling just because of their greed, but it's not the only reason people addicted to gambling we have many reasons. Some people will come to get back there loss, and this is not greedy this is a necessity. Poeple lost their hard work money, and when they lost that money they again play to get back that money, but it's not possible like this also some people will addict to gambling.
351  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is better? To gamble or to invest? on: July 01, 2017, 09:54:34 AM
I think investing is more risky than gambling because most of investing websites are just scam, but in gambling you have better chances to make your bitcoin grow. How about you guys what do you think?
actually, they're both  more risky. Whether you do gamble or investing into something. But majority of the people they choose to invest than to gamble their capital, unlike in gambling winning or jackpot mostly depend on luck only.

In case of gambling vs investing in gambling sites, I'm sure that investing has less risk than gambling it. Investing is a good choice as investors may earn in long term, unlike gambling when gamblers are mostly lost their money in a long term. But obviously it is subjective choice, some may gambling than investing and some others may investing than gambling.

It depends our capacity if we can afford a loss in gambling then we can try gambling. or else investing on the gamlbing site is a good way to make money. We have many good well reputed sites, and they are sharing their profit with investors since last few years. So those who interested in investing they can invest and make money. But we need a big capital to make money in investing.
352  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoins and Bankers on: June 29, 2017, 09:43:20 AM
Yes that is right, and i agree. For now and in near future people will need banks for exchanging bitcoin to fiat currency, and i guess nothing more. Because of fluctuation who sane would take credit from bank in bitcoin Cheesy . But why i say in near future, well we all know how bitcoin works, and for paying and dealing with bitcoin in day to day life we do not need banks. But still, some people will need banks for safe keeping their bitcoins.

In fact, it makes perfect sense to take a Bitcoin loan from a bank

It is the bank who is to suffer most from Bitcoin volatility, not the borrower. For example, if you take 1,000 bitcoins and then sell half of this amount for dollars. Let's assume that Bitcoin rises a few times after that. Now you can safely default on your loan (I don't say that you should since I just follow the logic of the bank), forfeit your collateral (whatever it might be), and then buy what you forfeited with now expensive bitcoins and still have some bitcoins left in your pockets (plus dollars that you sold half of your bitcoins for). If Bitcoin goes down dramatically, it's not a big deal either. You just buy back the inexpensive coins with the dollars and return them to the bank (plus any interest accrued)

Yes we have both advantage and disadvantage for this method. According to you if the price drops it is an advantage for us to buy more coins and return to the bank. If the price increase then it is an advantage for banks they will get more income. The only solution for this problem is first the bitcoin price will be stable at one rate like our fiat currency. Once it's done, then we can do this business or else it is impossible.
353  Economy / Economics / Re: Holdings of gold vs Holdings of btc on: June 29, 2017, 09:28:03 AM
Everyone saying that bitcoin is better because it will go up faster doesn't know much. You can leverage gold 100x, then a 1% move = double your money. It all depends how much risk you want to take on...the leverage is there if you want to play the paper. What if gold goes up to 2000 again? (it will) that is A LOT of doubling. Gold is the best long term. Banks and government will probably issue gold backed currency and the price will go very high. Gold has a much better chance being adopted for currency (again, as usual) than bitcoin.

Bitcoin will be seen as totally speculative unless it is accepted as official currency. Bitcoin has a lot of headwinds too. Don't fool yourself, if gvt wanted to squeeze it, they could. They could ban it! They could ban gold too. But they wont, because no need. They let you play in the cryptos, no problem. Won't be paying your taxes in btc anytime, bet on that. Sure, in bad financial times it will go up, but so will every other asset like land, classic cars, art, metals etc. Gold would be over 70,000 / ounce if our money was backed by it.

All the gold that exists is worth 4 trillion. The market is much bigger then bitcoin. That number, the marketcap is what matters to value 'all of something', exactly what you would do when comparing the 2.
You are obsoletely correct the gold never replaced by bitcoin. The present situation the value of the gold is less to compare bitcoin, but it has more value in the inaternatinaol market. And the investors also huge to compare bitcoin investors. Illiterates and poor people are invested in Gold, but they will not invest in bitcoin. That much popularity gold already got in the market.
354  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What keeps you coming back??? on: June 29, 2017, 09:19:10 AM
The desire to win more and more money from gambling sites is something that attracts me to keep on depositing over and over again, most users probably knew that the house edge will eventually took back the profits we made earlier from the site, but I guessed the greed to win more just kept on ringing in our mind, maybe greediness is really a devil that needs a lot of determination to overcome.

That is why you are going to regret your mistake. I was like that as well until I forget about everything, I spend alot of money just to find myself desperate. I played to win and hope to win alot of money but all I get in return is desperation. Thats the reason that Im playing for fun so that I wont feel desperate again
Making ourselves enjoyed is the only sure reward we can get in gambling, playing gambling does not guarantees winning even we played alot so we just need atleast an assurance that we can get something from it so make sure to have fun.
Exactly because that is the only way where we can last in the game, we gamble for fun and not for profit.
Trying to win and make it as your source of income is good but we should know if we have the skills to do it consistently and if not we have to stop and shift our interest to a more fun activity which is gambling for pure entertainment, we keep gambling for money even without the skills we will surely go bankrupt in time.
Everyone tries to win in gambling because no one like to become a loser. But not everyone will play just for money there is some gamblers play to come out with their work stress and other reasons. And don't make gambling your source of income if you win money in gambling just calm down. With this reference, if you try to play more games I am sure you will face the worst situation.
355  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Monthly Best Gambling Site (June 2017) on: June 29, 2017, 09:09:49 AM
I voted for bitsler because the fun never stops there. Been playing there for over a year now and still excited everyday to go back and roll,chat and participate in events.
I too voted for bitsler. This is the very good site for those who like slot games. I like to play on this site they will accept some other alt coins also to play gambling that is why this site is becoming popular very quickly. And this is user friendly if any issues we face in deposit or withdraw our coins they have good customer service to solve our problems. Overall in recent days, Bitsler is the well reputed site for online gamblers.
356  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What would you do with your winnings? on: June 29, 2017, 09:05:06 AM
for me if i have big winnings I will buy myself a big boat and move to live in the sea. If possible I will visit the land only twice a year. For me that is a win.

This sounds crazy, how can you live off the rest of your life on the sea? It's just not going to be easy to win an amount capable of buying you a boat but if you finally succeed at that please do well to put it to a better use than the boat.

This sounds very good, lots of people buy yachts and live in the ocean, there are also many casinos on a European cruise ship sailing nonstop in half a year, this is not impossible for a very rich person. They do not care if they spend the rest of their lives just for fun, and life at sea is an experience that no one else has to get it.
In a boat, you can not live 6 months you need a big ferry to live a long time in the water. You have a very big dream I wish you your dream come true. I don't have this type of dream, but I don't like to spend my winning amount in same gambling I want to use that money for my personal needs. But sometimes I can't control I use my money to play gambling. I want to get full control on my feelings this is my wish. Is this possible?
357  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is bitcoin transaction fees fair? on: June 28, 2017, 10:41:18 AM
Bitcoin transaction fees are only fair if your transaction is big but if you will only send 0.01 and you need to pay for 0.001 for the fee then that's unfair. And sometimes even if you pay a highers fee the transaction still takes time and that is frustrating.
Yes for limited amount bitcoin transaction the fee is little bit we can not afford that money. But for the decent number of bitcoin transaction, the fee is fair enough. This transaction fee will effect only for day traders. The normal bitcoin user will afford this fee I think. For me this fee is ok I am ready to pay because I will not do any small BTC transaction.
358  Other / Archival / Re: Do you agree with idea "Bitcoin bank" ? on: June 28, 2017, 10:35:45 AM
I completely disagree the idea of bitcoin bank i think we don't need it as bitcoin is meant to remain decentralized always and the idea of bank is to centralize bitcoin. Even some regulated web wallets like coinbase, xapo practice same restrictions like normal banks with lots of account lock down and KYC policies which is completely against what bitcoin was developed for.
Indeed, if there is a bank who totally accepts bitcoin I think they can’t handle it well because bitcoin doesn’t have exact value so it will become a problem. However; there are online wallets that can help you to keep your bitcoin safe and secure. Lastly, I guess in the coming future there will be a bank who allows bitcoin as deposit of their client.

The bank will hold your bitcoin. 1.467BTC and not the value of the bitcoin in usd.
You have 1.467BTC, and you will be able to withdraw or use 1.467 BTC no matter if the price is 100 or 1 million.

Online wallets...safe and secure.
Yeah right!!!
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=576337#post_toc_54
What you said it's correct the banks will hold our bitcoins in the form of bitcoins only not in the form of USD. And if we want to withdraw our bitcoins we can withdraw our full bitcoins there is no deduction will be done by banks. But the only thing is the govt will take tax from us. They will put one margin if we cross that margin we have to pay tax to govt. Making bitcoin bank is easy but handling it is very tough.
359  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to spot a gambler addicted? on: June 28, 2017, 10:04:24 AM
It's easy, you can easily spot an addicted gambler on gambling sites that have chat tab. You can see many people that keep online 24hours on the chat on the gamblin sites like primedice, nitrogensports and it's 100% addicted gambler, they even beg on the chat to gamble.
We still cannot conclude yet if they are addicted or not, they might have a lot of time to spent that's why they keep gambling.
For me, addiction is a negative thing and not all gamblers who constantly gamble are addicted to it.
I think he is right those who spend more time in gambling site they might be addicted to this gambling. And your statement also right some people spend more time in gambling site, but they just watch the games are they involved in chat tab. But most of the time only the addicted gamblers only spend more time in the gamlbing site. So while watching them, we can identify they are addicted or not.
360  Economy / Speculation / Re: should i buy or sell today on: June 27, 2017, 09:30:34 AM
It's all depends on when you bought the current bitcoin in your wallet. If you bought it when the price of bitcoin was less than what it is now, then you can sell in other to make profit. But only if you are afraid of holding your bitcoin pending when the market value increase more than the current value.
yes some people have bought bitcoin a year before so they have good opportunity to sell bitcoin and get some profit but those people who buy bitcoin recently they should stay some time and will surely get good profit from it because the price of bitcoin is still going up.
This is the time to hold your bitcoin if you bought it a year back or recently just hold it in your wallet few weeks means up to August. Many people are expecting that after August it is a good time for Bitcoin and the price will cross $3000. This is the not good time to sell your coins because today the price is dropping don't know where it will go and stop. Selling your coins more than $2500 is worth. So wait for some time.
