10681  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is bitcoin being used for illegal activities on: March 29, 2016, 07:51:39 AM
Everything can be used for illegal transactions. Probably USD in the form of cash is still the most used tool for illegal activities. I guess EUR is the second.

I am talking about it here for a long time. I really like that smbd thining like me Grin
Criminals don't care what to use bitcoin or dollars only profit make sens.
well im pretty sure they do care as bitcoin is pretty much untraceable and no one can find out who bought something illegal

besides that in my opinion bitcoin is used for doing illegal stuff really often though i guess that pushes the price a little bit
At least with the bitcoin we can trace where the money origins and where it goes. But with the gold or fiats you never can come to trace any single footage of it. I do not find any new support from bitcoin to the criminals.

i like the fact that bitcoin can make your transactions anonymous and no one will be able to find out who sent the coins

people usually dont like the fact that they are being spectated so they usually choose bitcoins in order to avoid that
Yes bitcoin helps to stay anonymous wherever we need. Like payment with porn site are gambling sites are not suitable to explore to our family members. I'm using bitcoin payments to gambling sites to stay not visible with my payments.
You're talking about your family members and friends but my case is totally different. Bitcoin payment's anonymous feature help me stay protected from hackers as well as it helps me to save some tax. I had some bad experience of using ATM cards for international payments and got anonymous charges to that. With the bitcoin I'm staying safe now.
10683  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If you were rich, would you still gamble? on: March 27, 2016, 06:01:25 AM
A lot of people here gamble to become rich, but some do it for fun.

The question is, if you wake up tomorrow with 50 million dollars, would you still gamble for fun, or would you forget about gambling and do other stuff?
I would like keep half of it aside and gamble with the rest. Its fun to gamble and more fun when you are rich lol. I mean if you good at it you can even win more since the money gambled will be more.
Many people will of course gamble. And the gamblers are often rich, because they have the money to waste it.
Poor people cant even gamble because they need their money for their daily life stuff. So there are only rich people.
You are true, poor people cannot afford to play gambling with their money they even hardly afford their lives , only rich people play gambling and can afford to pay for their losses at there.
If he is addicted they no matter he is poor or he is rich , he will gamble and will expose his money to lose in playing there. As the addict person do not have any mind just want to do for what he is addicted.
But there is a matter, if he gets that money through gambling then he will be encouraged more to earn through there and will play again and again no matter after that how much time he loses.
10684  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online gambling or offline gambling at a casino ? on: March 26, 2016, 03:53:32 PM
i like play at casino but in my countries isn't have casino place, so if i want to gamble i just play at online gambling.

we have a option to gamble online,why would anyone like to walk to the casino and pay high house edges? I mean hookers and alcohol are a thing but for general people like me..
As in offline casino they feel more entertainment as a number of people are accumulated at there and they enjoy fun all the night to play games and at there if they lose they do not feel pain.
10685  Economy / Speculation / Re: What price should I buy at? on: March 26, 2016, 02:01:43 PM
You should buy them now the price is good and the future of the bitcoin  is also good so why should you not buy them right ?
I think you can buy them now and make profit later this year with the halving that is coming.
i dont know if it is the best price to buy bitcoins right now because it might drop right now as the halving is pretty far right now, also ethereum is pretty popular

i think i will top up my bitcoins at 350 dollars if the price will fall that low and then hold my bitcoins without thinking about it and make good profit on halving
You never need to worry about the price decrease in the case after your investment into bitcoin. All you have to do is to put some waiting. Yes, just holding your bitcoin for some time. Because bitcoin prices will bounce back for sure.
10686  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin the future of online gambling? on: March 26, 2016, 01:57:01 PM
There maybe a chance to use bitcoin for online gambling but still this depends upon the gambling organizer. But if ever the gambling site is on bitcoin this is a big possibility. Some online gambling might still use other currencies for their own purposes..
I hope you do realize that Bitcoin is already being used for online gambling. For instance, take a look at this section. There are a lot of people gambling with their Bitcoin on online casino or gambling website.

Yes, Bitcoin is already being used for online gambling, but really what percentage of gambling sites are using Bitcoin now? I have never seen such statistics and I can only guess that the number is around 20% maybe, but it's interesting to know the real number though.

Bitcoin is future on online gambling and it is seen clearly even now.More and more players adopting bitcoin to play online to play fast,more securely and simple way.
Yes, it is sure that in the coming future all the users and gambling site owners will start with only bitcoin as it is better for them in case no one know their identity and more people feel safe to play with it.
10687  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling should be considered as a Sickness!! on: March 26, 2016, 01:14:23 PM
Gambling is not that bad. It is your own choice to gamble, and of course it is a bad choice to do that. But we do it for fun.
And that is good, but for some people see gambling as a fast earning, and that is not good. I hope later that there will be more people will realize that gambling is bad to do.
Yes some people are considering it as a source of earning a good money and want to become wealthy in a short time but only lucky people gets that opportunity to win some bets and get some money.
But I have seen some lucky people who have a better luck and are earniong a good amount with their business but when they come to gambling world they loss everything.
10688  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: how much you lost money in gambling? on: March 26, 2016, 01:04:41 PM
I lost total around 1.2 BTC. And I won total 0.8 BTC, so I think it is not that bad, because there is not a lot of money wasted.
I hope later that more people can have some profit and that they will know that gambling is wasted money and time.
Yes, you have not lost much amount and just learned a lesson that gambling is the waste of time and money. But still there are a number of newbies who are loving to do and losing continuously.
You are right it is just wasting of time, and someone is saying that he has lost 1 bitcoin and won 1 bitcoin so nothing lost and bad, then he should have to think about their precious time which is lost in there.
10689  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Greatest gambling victory on: March 26, 2016, 09:05:53 AM
I had a bankrole of 0.001 from PD and won up to 0.12 but sadly the next day house edge got me, oh well thats my most victory in gambling.
profit up 1000% + it was amazing. unfortunately you do not learn it. maybe if you change accounts. you would not lose so great, or is it because you're too greedy. i dont know Cheesy
Yes, you have definitely to have bring that amount with you as there is a 50% chance for losing and 50% chance for winning. Once you win no need to be greedy and play again as luck no more remain all the time.
I prefer those gambling games where you do not have to be dependable on the luck only but those where you predict something, where you win with your skills and knowledge, it is more beneficial.
10690  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What do people around you think about Bitcoin ? on: March 25, 2016, 08:16:46 PM
I'm working with people that interested in earning money with bitcoin. We are just started creating a plan how to make this possible. But my friends/parents etc don't know waht bicoin is it.
It is really a rare environment to get some friends who are also interested with the bitcoin Ecosystem.  If you get many friends with the interest in Bitcoin, then it is very much easier to plan up for long-term investment and getting into Bitcoin mining also.
10691  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling problem on: March 25, 2016, 07:44:43 PM
Its is very bad to have a gambling problem. Because you can lose a lot of money and it is really hard to stop it.
And that is the problem. People should control themselves and that is very important. But you will get easily addicted to it and that is very bad.

Self control, when you do it from the time you start gambling and maintain that way, there would be no problem in gambling...But if you are always seeking for thrill, then I think you will end up really addicted to gambling..
Yes many gamblers go in search of thrills and pleasures by leaving off their goals and plans they have set before starting the gambling. Once you breach your own plan, the problem starts to haunt you.
Yes as long as you're keeping self-control and following your own strategies then there won't be any chances for getting into gambling problems. When you lose your self control and get into gambling problems.
10692  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin make Banks disappear? on: March 24, 2016, 07:14:24 PM
I bet bitcoin can because there is many bitcoin user now. And once many nations accept bitcoins
it is possible to make banks disappear. Because it has fast transactions and more secured and because technology becomes
more modern now it can easily fit in the modern world and it can use in different ways in the internet.
Yes when the user base of bitcoin keeps on growing and the requirement for Internet money usage makes more demand, then there are more possibilities for bitcoin to make Banks disappear.
Yes worldwide most people and many countries already started to adopt bitcoin payments instead of their bank uses. The main reason for this, bitcoin has all the features required for more and demand like fast and secured transactions.
10693  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling should be considered as a Sickness!! on: March 24, 2016, 07:03:04 PM
I kind of agree, gambling is very exciting activity that pumps our adrenaline, when you win big in gambling it will lead to addiction , many people cant control the temptation of betting, in the end it will lead to addicted sickness

Gambling is a sickness, it is a very bad hobby and addiction and not suggesting to anyone to be related to it in anyway as it's very bad.

Yes thats a better work for Gambling. Its sort of sickness. But if you are lucky , you can be the richest in small
amount of time.
But it is possible that everyone is a lucky there is only a few people who are earning at there and these are only for a limited time for long term games they are not lucky and not earn.
10694  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is their any safe methods to gamble? on: March 24, 2016, 06:41:03 PM
The safest way is to just not to start gambling overall, it's a very bad hobby, if you really wanna play safe you should only gamble with a certain amount and if you lose that you'll stop gambling and the money is one you are ready to lose as invested money.
Yes, the safest way to not to lose in any gambling is not to play, If you think that you will play and all the time you will earn then you are wrong as in gambling there is a definite chance that you will lose.
Yeah not to play , you will not lose and your opponent will also not lose, both will remain their own money and then start a good business with it to earn a better living with that, which is not much risky and hard.
10695  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When gambling makes you cry. on: March 24, 2016, 11:26:43 AM
I know the felling i lost 2 time a big ammount of bitcoins at least for me 3 btc was a lot but 2x was more than enough since this big misstake i still gamble but i know my limits and will never do again the same misstake!

I think everyone that gambles can cry sometimes not really of course but literately, the point is that gambling is luck and we do not have this always.
I almost lost 1,6 bitcoin in one bet when I was playing roulette, really ruined it for myself.

That is a lot money on just 1 bet gambling is risky and it is a risk taker that you bet that kind of amount in 1 bet, I think I just go in the small amount always, I am always carrying exact amount for gambling and controlling your bet is important.
Yeah, that is a huge amount, the silly we do often in gambling, we bet a huge amount like all of your wealth at once in one bet which gave us only a lesson and nothing more, even an experience to bet again. As at that point we are finished.
The best gambler is one who starts to bet with a small amount of his/her money and as soon he comes to know that he can earn at there and he is unable to be defeated at there then he bets for big amounts.
I will suggest for all the newbie gamblers and loser gamblers that before starting a game to bet with it any amount of his wealth, he should have to learn at free games first and after that need to invest.
10696  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: March 24, 2016, 09:17:29 AM
this one is good question
we are greedy people in nature so get some point on that
why we are greedy cuz we always want more
Thats true that they are not satisfied what they had  so they play and to have some fun and to double or triple their money and it turn to lose.. instead of earning it in a job they are want to gamble their money to make a huge money but resutl lose..
So thats why they are addicted.
Plus there is a thought circling around that with gambling there is a chance to boost up their income to 100x without any hard efforts , and so to achieve that target then continue till lose all his/her wealth.
10697  Economy / Speculation / Re: $250 here we come!!! on: March 24, 2016, 08:28:09 AM
If the price is $250 for Bitcoin this is the time to buy, because the chance is slim that it will drop any lower.
You should buy as many as you can. The price will go up in no time. Buy as many and be sure to save some. 

$250 is too low and probably a very good advantage to buy and hoard and We might really reach that point but might not be very fast.. or if it happens drastically , then there's something wrong in the bitcoin world and I think no one will buy if it reaches that low..
How you people are expecting a lower price of bitcoin when most of the people are speculating price up surge due to halving is going to happen in few months. When most of the people think price increase, mostly market will reflect the same thing.
When a thought is spread among the people that the price will be increased then they will not sell their bitcoin on less price and in this way bitcoin will not lose its value, so in return the price if do not increase it will at least do not decrease also.
10698  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Greatest gambling victory on: March 24, 2016, 08:03:34 AM
I had a bankrole of 0.001 from PD and won up to 0.12 but sadly the next day house edge got me, oh well thats my most victory in gambling.
you would not lucky as that for every day because in gambling if you are lucky with the small amount you can win big and the contrary if you aren't lucky very possible to lost with huge amount
For me it is a great luck of you to earn 0.12 with only 0.001 , I have never ever earned that much amount ever in my life maybe because of luck, But hope one day I will be able to do that.
10699  Other / Off-topic / Re: Do you still believe in bitcoin on: March 24, 2016, 07:26:58 AM
Yes of course i believed in bitcoin, bitcoin already provide so many things for me such as gambling excitement, extra income and efficient way to purchase and sell things all over the world, eventhough there are so many scammer using bitcoin payment but i still believe in bitcoin

don't know if i still believe in bitcoin or not. because as you can see, the bitcoin price keep decrease from yesterday and it's make me losing hope in bitcoin.
Do not loose your belief on bitcoin just for trading fluctuations. Ups and downs are very much usual thing for any traded commodity. It provides opportunity to earn if you learn how to make use of them. Keep your faith, bitcoin will worth some millions in few years for sure.
10700  Economy / Speculation / Re: Getting closer to Halving but .. no increase ? on: March 24, 2016, 05:27:22 AM
I am also currently suprised to not see any significant growth in price. But i think there will be quick straight rise in halving because whales like to collect enough cheap coins before halving right now.

Last halving the rise took place mostly after it happened and not before.
Maybe this time it won't that much different.
Or in worst case it is already priced in and nothing will happen.
I'd say let's wait and see.That is all we can do right?!
We can not expect the exact time for the consequence of halving to take place. But it's still going to happen for sure. For me, a long-term investor of bitcoin, the consequence timing of halving is not a big matter.
