What will happen to bitcoin in india. whether it is legal or not.
I don't think there is anything that is happening to Bitcoin in India. I got a news that they have restricted the use of Bitcoin in India, but that same year my friend who is living India was still making use of Bitcoin and I even send and receive money from him like every two weeks. So I don't really know if it is legal there or not, but since he's still making use of it, so I guess there is nothing happening and bitcoin is safe there. Maybe you should do your research or ask other people that are living there how it has been for them.

We knows that the crypto currency investment can give us lot of profits even in short time but this is very new there are lot of invesments like real estate,gold,mutual funds silent partner in businesses and lot more but what you think which has highest ROI in short term other than crypto invesments.

My opinion is that real estate can be that one,since my grandfather used to be like buying and selling the lands and made tons of money in his life time but I didn't do that such kind of traditional invetment.
Well it all depends on what you want, whether you  are looking for a high risk investment or low risk. Bitcoin is one of the high risk investment but the profit  that come from it is always huge, if you're lucky,  but if you're not it is a huge loss at the end. But if you want something of a low risk,  you can consider things like High Interest  Savings Accounts, Dividend paying stocks and ETFs,Lending club and the rest of them without much risk at all. If you need Something of high risk,  you can check out REiTs or even currency and bitcoin Is one of these as I have said.
3  Economy / Economics / Re: Cryptocurrency, KYC and Terrorism on: June 06, 2019, 09:26:53 AM
This is no longer a new things, cause we have been discussing for many years, there have been lots of people kicking against bitcoin and cryptocurrency as a whole because they believe that it can be used in funding terrorists attacks. As for stealing people's identity, that has been happening for a very long time, there are people who just come here for the purpose of stealing people's identity and selling them on the dark web,  so no longer a new thing. That's why a lot of people here hates to make use of platforms that request for KYC, unless maybe it's a trusted platform that has a good reputation.
4  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: When will the bull market come? on: June 06, 2019, 07:54:14 AM
Honestly I don't think anyone can confidently predict the time of the bull run. You can see in time past people have predicted the prices of Bitcoin and the time of bullrun and probably non have been accurately correct. I think the time as changed and the market is just full of surprises. I will just advise you to flow with the surprises and be ready at all time.
LOL. The market has really been full of surprises indeed, I could remember that no one could see that the bear will be over in the manner it took in April when bitcoin did the Semi run and we were all thinking it was a joke, most analysts that are claiming guru now could not even see it coming.

I have just been flowing with the surprises as you said, although my confidence is built more on bitcoin because I really don’t know what the altcoins are doing their, they are just going with bitcoin trend and not coming with their own personal surprises. It is even difficult for me to say if those altcoins are out of bear or still in bear, I mean alts below 100 in CMC.
5  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Instead of Gambling Invest in the BANKROLL on: June 06, 2019, 07:29:34 AM
I know people in this subection are probably going to be against this sort of rhetoric, though I know that most people here are avid gamblers. Which is fine, though there is a problem that arises when you gamble all the time -- you're not going to be making any money, and all you're doing is losing.

Wouldn't you much rather invest in the bankroll of a gambling website, so you'd be able to make some money off of people like you?

I do understand that there is risk in giving other people access to your BTC (or whatever coin you choose) though that same risk is present when you gamble and put coins on the platform.

Are there particular casinos you can suggest? A bit embarrassing to admit but I haven't thought of this before.

How does the process go? Do you simply send them money or are there papers you have to collect first for the process?
When it comes to gambling, you have to be ready for a win and loss so I think not all the gamblers loose money and many out there make some great money as well as fame and name. You might know about Gonzalo Garcia who was famous for beating the casino and made great name in the history of gambling. He lost many games of course but it is this compounding that makes you the perfect gambler.
6  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: IEO is popular, what do you think? Will you participate? on: June 06, 2019, 06:59:45 AM
IEO is good but i think there is some more work needs to be done. But we are moving in the right direction and soon we'll be at a stage where we'll be having projects where our investments can be safe and reward good profits.
Back in 2018, ICO had been the word of the mouth and had created great buzz in the market as well. But that trend was smashed into pieces due to the fake and dubious projects and that was the start of IEO which had been pretty much profitable. If you are lucky enough to participate in the IEO token sales, you could make some great money.
7  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which is better ICO, STO Or IEO ? on: June 06, 2019, 06:11:01 AM
What do you think, IEO better than ICO or STO or they are just the same with only difference in system?
Yes they are same just collecting money on different systems. I can't see much success on IEO also. After listed exchange for trading IEO coins dumped hardly. So most of investor's in lose even they hold it. I can't see much project about STO, not sure if I am missing something. But likely all are same.
You should explore about STOs because these offerings are far better especially the newly launched CTOs are better than all of the offerings. CTOs are better than both IEOs and ICOs no doubt because the Consumer Token Offerings have more benefits than those of the Initial Exchange Offerings (IEOs), Security Token Offerings (STOs) and definitely the unsecure Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs).
8  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Japan as the Next Big Destination for iGaming Operators? on: June 06, 2019, 05:47:05 AM
Japan is very attractive market for the iGaming operators so they will do their best to get into that market.
Igaming operators will find it easier if country like Japan is adopting to bring such convenience for the operators then other countries can think the same. They can also get in touch with such activities but they should make sure all the things go in the right way. Japan besides this honor is the world’s top place for the open use of crypto coins and we can see many people are involved in crypto business.
9  Economy / Marketplace / Re: How To Sell Your Used Gift Cards For Bitcoin on: June 05, 2019, 09:28:57 AM
If you have been thinking about trading away your unused or new gift cards from stores such as Target, WalMart, Apple, Nike, Sephora, Amazon, Best Buy, VISA, Mastercard and more then here is how you can get started. I made this guide to be short and sweet. You can find the full guide here. There are two main places that will give you the most Bitcoins for your gift cards (1) Paxful (2) LocalBitcoins

On Paxful there are over 300+ payment options including just about every single gift card under the sun. Verification requires a valid ID or passport. The exchange is based in New York, New York and is one of the most popular exchanges around. Fees are only 1%.

On LocalBitcoins, you can choose between any local buyer and/or seller to do business with. The platform supports peer-to-peer transactions and has all the security measures in place to keep merchants fair and honest. Security is tight as the platform has every type of 2-Factor authentification available. LocalBitcoins is available in every corner of the world and is the most visited Bitcoin exchange/marketplace in existence. 
Yes LocalBitcoin is good but you will have to be careful  on who to chose to do your business, cause there are no places you can't find scammers. So look for those that are already verified, unless you just decide to take the risk with new buyers. Then as for Paxful, there is nothing to worry about, Paxful is always my favorite, they are legit and everyone knows them already cause they have a very good reputation . Another good thing I like about them is the fact they offer a lot of payment methods and withdrawals, so you never have to worry too much.
10  Economy / Speculation / Re: Billionaire wants to buy 25% of the bitcoin supply on: June 05, 2019, 06:22:17 AM
25 percent is a lot of bitcoin and I dont think they will be risking that much.
They became billionaire with their businesses and they know how should it work.

I dont think they will just burn all that money for something which is not that much reputable to the market.
This might be some kind of news just to continue the hype that is happening in the bitcoin market.
Or, if this could be true then something evil might be behind it.
They got their money through business and I agree, but not just from one source. Business men get their money also by risking investment and bitcoin risk is very small compared to risk that they have been taking, so I wouldn’t doubt if they take this risk also.

They must have seen a bitcoin analyst that would have explained the profit they stand to get with such investment now that bitcoin is on the verge of starting its bull run, and maybe their investment will be the catalyst. The whales we talk about, isn’t that how they manipulate the market by using heavy fund to buy the whole coin they can get to buy from panic sell.
11  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is needed for a gambler to the success? on: June 05, 2019, 05:15:16 AM
Everyone know gambling is filled with success and loss but what is the most important for being successful in gambling
Luck or experience?

nobody really totally succeeds in gambling, the losses are bigger than winning, you can succeed for years if you can take care of your gambling habit, you stopped when you are having a bad day and you are losing a lot, and you can manage your winnings too by not to continuing anymore when running out of luck.

  I think it is about an individual deliberation in order to succeed, by making sensible strategy and self-control to avoid attaching aggresive reactions on gambling. Unfortunately, when luck has running out of our way will lead us to failure. And somehow, experiencing failure will enhance our knowledge to create viable and sensible strategy that may used to defeat loses. It is just logical cycle in order to achieve thrive and being wise is preferably good aspect to deal consequence.
Of course it is a subjective opinion and that many gamblers expect and want different features than what others do. About myself, I expect a site to have quick service and I love to get my request for withdrawal accepted anytime I send a request. This is very important from my point of view. There are another feature which is attractive if the website is user friendly with different options easily and directly accessible.
12  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Whats better holding many coins or fewer coins? on: June 05, 2019, 04:49:48 AM
If you hold lots of useless coins also you don't have the the opportunity to get the profit easily and also if you hold less amount of best currency for long time then also you can get less profits only so you need to hold lots of good currencies only you can make huge profit in your future
Holding many coins is a best option regardless Of which coin you hold but the more quantity will enable you to earn more. It is super excellent if you hold the Bitcoins in large quantity which will enable you to have massive profit in future. Coins other than the Bitcoin will give you the opportunity to make less profit but its large quantity will enable you to earn much more as we described in the case of Bitcoin.
13  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: how can i trust new platforms? on: June 04, 2019, 12:15:32 PM
indeed, to determine a coin that has a bright future is very difficult and certainly worries from traders often appear so that directly those who want to invest must be ready to experience various problems, especially losses later.
I think trusting a new platform could be very challenging until you are 100% sure about the pros and cons of the exchange. You cannot out in your money in the coins on the exchange. There could be security issues and normally exchanges with low ranks are very prone to hacks and attacks. So better be wise while choosing an exchange for it might be life changing decision.
14  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: IEO is popular, what do you think? Will you participate? on: June 04, 2019, 11:47:28 AM
will definitely participate with the IEO now than the old system of ICO.
This will give me more assurance on my investment as it will be on the exchange and soon will be listed there.
This will gain and attract more investors on the project.
The system is changing now as we had ICOs in the beginning but IEOs are using as alternative to ICOs because we have noticed that benefits of both are almost the same but IEOs are most safe projects. Now many other projects are launched in which it is now common to see that CTOs are better than both the ICOs and IEOs. Try to explore about all these offerings and choose whichever you see have most benefits for you.
15  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Nobody wins in gambling anyway on: June 04, 2019, 11:14:02 AM
That's the real picture and that's the reality, so if you are going to a gambling site thinking that you can win and turn down the table against the gambling site, you are hallucinating, the system is well placed for a gambler to lose not every time but most of the time.
How about those who won big? is that hallucination? Reality is most of gambler loss but man don't forget that there are still player who accumulated profits. They maybe rare but still they exist. So it wasn't hallucination, it's just their luck isn't enough to become one of those successful and lucky gamblers.

I am sure that there are people who can win big in gambling and that is not a hallucination because they really got the money and take it home. Yes, I am sure that there is a gambler who can accumulate profits and make a lot of money from gambling but if we compare between people who are losing the money, then people who lose money still too many than them.
No, one wins and one loses in a game between two players so the ratio of both winning and losing is the same. When players are many and game is one then the ratio of winning is smaller than the ratio of losing in the same game. Those who are not winning in the gambling games they need to improve strategies which may help in increasing chances to win only if the game is based on strategies and tricks.
16  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What kind of poker player are you? on: June 04, 2019, 10:50:59 AM
<snip>
About that 2 options, i am hit and run player. Because sometime i play and afraid to lose, so when i win or lose, usually i leave the game and maybe take a rest. And then start again in next day.

I feel you bro. I'm more of option #1, too—a hit and run player. I know to myself and honestly admitted that I don't like the feeling of losing. It gives me frustration and regret. So whenever I have that drive to gamble, and whenever I win big, then I prefer to walk out immediately and enjoy what I gained before something change my mind that'll trigger me to bet again and again until I have lost everything.
If you are the type that hates to lose then I can tell that you are not a good gambler or not fit to be a gambler at all. Aside gambling, I think it’s very good for everyone to learn how to handle lose, because no matter how careful we feel we can be, we would always encounter loses. Either in business or different spheres of life, but it’s good to see it as a stepping stone to greatness instead of feeling frustrated and unhappy.

I don’t even know the very category I belong, either the hit and run or the one that uses proceeds from previous bets, I think it just depends on my playing mood per time. There are times I would play and rest for a while, other times play from rewards in the last play, but either ways I am never scared of losing.
I kind of disagree with this bro, there is a big difference between hating loses and handling loses. I hate loses and that doesn’t make me a less gambler because I know how to handle my loss. Those who have problems with handling loses might just be suffering from Emotional problems, it has nothing to do with the hate for loss. I know how bad I always feel when I experience a loss but this feelings would never lead me to take a drastic decision, I have control over my feelings and that as well means I am in control of the loses

However I am that player that would use the money from previous bet to hunt for other rewards since that is the only way I can increase my money in gambling.
I am not a very great poker player and it is not really possible to be great at gambling as well because of many reasons. I think that you need to learn a lot and practice a lot if you want to be successful at gambling. You need to have some great mental and mathematical abilities and only then you could be in a position to claim the game.
17  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: DOGE coin time to buy ? on: June 04, 2019, 10:27:30 AM
hi guys
do u think its a good time to buy DOGE with 45 - 46 sat ?
i heard some news that DOGE devs thinking about adding it
to binance if that's happned im sure DOGE can fly again
what do u think about current price of DOGE its already raised to 80 sat
a few days ago so i think 45 sat is not a bad price to invest

like everyone who's pioneer in trading crypto it's always good to buy doge coin this time because it has a pretty good potential to rise up again at anytime. if i have balance in my wallet i think im going to pick a good amount with doge.
I think DOGE coin is not a bad coin. There are numerous thing you could do with doge coin. You could gamble with DOGE coin if the option is there on a gambling site. You could use it as a medium of exchange if someone accepts it and you could transfer money in the form of DOGE coin if allowed by your jurisdiction. So it is better to have as many good coins as possible.
18  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Ethereum will Boom ! on: June 04, 2019, 10:00:47 AM
Eth - scam.
Really? Do you indirectly want to say that those millions of people who have been using ETH for various purposes are fools? Of course not because ETH has great practical implications in real life and has been highly profitable as well. This is why I am a fan of ETH for it has been able to give me more than 4X in this bull and more than 10X last boom.
19  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: I need suggestion on: June 04, 2019, 09:37:20 AM
I am looking for some altcoins to invest, which is profitable in this situation. Theres lot of coins, so i am confused Where to invest. Thanks in advance

Litecoin seems to be a good choice

It is good for both short-term trading as it likely has the highest level of volatility among major cryptocurrencies and long-term holding as it has shown consistent gains during the last 3-4 months. Well, all major altcoins have shown consistent gains recently (along with Bitcoin and partially being fueled by Bitcoin's spectacular growth) but let's not forget that Litecoin halving is just around the corner, so we should expect at least some hype before the halving followed by the supply squeeze soon thereafter and culminating with a refreshing change in price (not that Litecoin's price has been stale but you get the point)
I think you should seriously consider about BNB and ETH. These coins have been gaining very high value lately and the cost of investment is not very high though. So you should have these coins in your portfolio and in addition to them. Litecoin is not a bad deal. Try to make sure you have a low cost of investment and then you would be able to make good profits.
We have the bull market going on right now and let me tell you that if you invest even in Litecoin, you would be able to make some good money. BNB and ETH are pretty much demanded and have been in good vibes. Bitcoin is also of great value and you can have gains in the coins if you invest now and wait until the market is more bullish with more than $10k.
20  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: HOW I BECAME A GAMBLER on: June 04, 2019, 07:48:13 AM
I am not a full time gambler. If there is any special league matches going on foot ball games. On that only i use to gamble apart from that sometime i spare time at casino games.
If you want to become as a gambler spare your time at the any gambling site and use little funds to start. You can learn slowly dah by day.

I also gamble with football games. Maybe I feel that is more predictable but generally, I don't gamble a lot because it is a chance circumstance.

For the advise of how to start gambling, it is better to stay off it for people who have not started because an addict will keep going on with earnings.

So for the new people who want to come in gambling, you are suggesting them to keep away from gambling ? If you have lost much, it does not mean that everyone else will lost too. We never know if anyone is lucky and he can change his/her fortune just by coming in gambling.

Yes, those coming in gambling should learn on how to avoid addiction and how to manage the money.
I think that would have been a good  advice to intending players to stay off gambling, he has been in it and can definitely give advice based on his experience. If I have an avenue to preach against gambling, I would beg those who have started already to quit and those who have not started never to go near it att. Gambling is scam that has been made legal by some group of people in the name of fun, entertainment and money

I have never seen a place where over 1000 people can lose over $500 each for only one strange person to win less than $300, that’s a legit scam that many do not understand. In gambling,
You sound pained, I hope you haven’t lost too much to gambling, I am sorry if you did. But I beg to disagree with you that gambling is scam, I don’t see it that way because the money I lose to the game Is what I could afford and I as well played it for recreation not minding if I lose since I would always pay at all points to catch my fun.

If all those 1000people who lose are all those who play for entertainment, then its not bad if it made one person rich, that’s the whole idea, at least everyone would be happy. The only problem is when people gamble what cost them in an attempt to make money from gambling.

If gambling was a scam activity, then no one would have continued playing gambling. The rule of thumb is that Gambling will make few people rich and many people poor in very less time. So people keep on playing gambling in order to become rich quickly and they are also ready to take the risk which come with gambling.
This is I think absurd to call gambling a scam activity. It is one of the leading economic activity around the world with as high as $530 billion USD of worth. I think you can really make some good money in gambling if you have good experience and some knowledge about the area you are gambling in. So yeah, you should be part for gambling if you think you can take a chance to make some money.
