21  Economy / Speculation / Re: Do you feel the rise of BTC anytime soon? on: May 12, 2018, 05:43:32 AM
Slowly and gradually. BTC has been rolling the circles around $10k mark since March. No reason for me to see it rocketing anytime soon.
Yeah not anytime because we have already seen the consequences of big pump. The big increase was not according to market value and it collapsed like a rocket in a few days and many people lose their huge investments. There is no need for increase anytime. It is not good for bitcoin new investors. They will feel bitcoin investment like gambling.
22  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why gambling is portrayed negatively almost everywhere? on: May 12, 2018, 05:13:05 AM
Gambling is prohibited or considered negative in almost any country or anywhere because it is very risky .. because it will create an addiction without control and will cause danger and harm yourself .. many negative impact if you gamble and you will lose money or everything, Avoid and stay away if you do not want to be poor..
Officially, every country except few ones say openly that no activity regarding gambling will be entertained and the person caught disobeying the rules and regulations will be punished strictly but they don’t do what they say.

Every state is well aware of every single affair happening in it but they don’t like to stop gambling casinos from doing their job because they are helping governments by paying heavy taxes.
Bad is bad and gambling is bad habit, that’s why people have bad ideas about gambling in their minds. People know the results of gambling which are always worse, why they will not portrayed it negatively. Some people say that they gambler just for fun. I say that why those people not play a simple game for fun without any money involved?
23  Economy / Economics / Re: When will Apple accept bitcoins? on: May 12, 2018, 04:44:13 AM
When they really need to. But they'll fight it hard! Apple's business model is to lock everything down -- very closed indeed. This does not align with the goals of bitcoin, at least, how I perceive them.

tl;dr Apple = closed. BTC = open.
I do not know about it, I have a question. Are other products similar to apple receiving bitcoin? why do you just mention apple?
No big corporation can accept bitcoin as a means of payment, so far we know a lot of big companies that do not allow or accept bitcoin.
I think there must be some issues that Apple still do not accept bitcoin although big companies already accepting bitcoin. I t is right that when they realize that now they should start accepting bitcoin, they will not wait for a single day. May be some security issues because it is a matter of money and everyone needs security for his payments and receipts.
24  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What you think about support in crypto casinos? on: May 09, 2018, 06:36:04 AM
I wonder what people has to say about support in crypto related casinos? Do you have any experience, are you satisfied? What you think where support is the best, and where is the worst?
Maybe I will add pool later if there is enough comments and suggestions. Please stick to the topic with your comments, lets make nice discussion about this matter.

I think you mean is about support system on the casino and I don't have any problem with every support system in the casino/gambling sites because I don't have any bad experience while I played the games. for me, as long as the support system can give the best answer and they tried to solve their customer problem, then I think they are the best because they can make their customer satisfaction with their service.
Yeah you are right. Crypto casinos are good for the satisfaction of their customers. I have never experienced such casinos but I think that if casinos start their services in cryptocurrency, it will support bitcoin and the gamblers will use their bitcoin in gamblings. The real thing of bitcoin is to use them for payments and not for holdings to make money.
25  Economy / Economics / Re: The men behind our future! on: May 09, 2018, 06:04:00 AM
But you must also look that the technology you have mentioned become some kind of double edged sword for a considerable amount of people. With the discovery of the internet, mobile phones there comes social media websites, at first it was doing its thing making people interact with one another  but when the social websites grow it made people less socialize and worst made people become less productive. Some people think that this websites are enough for their entertainment but what is really happening is that too much of it is a distraction in your real life. So not all technology has positive effects some of it if abused will give you negative effects.
No, we can’t deny the aspects of technology that have created a hub of easiness in the life of humans. But on the same floor, we can’t just deny the losses and disasters came in the lives of people just because of technology. So I think, with this statement, we can extract out that it is us who will be deciding for our future and would be leading ourselves either to the loss or to the profit.
For every proton there is an electron. That means, it is not possible to have something with only advantages. Everything has its positive and negative aspects in order to maintain balance. Technology inventions also have their own pros and cons.

Besides, it really depend on the user which side of fence he chooses to be, either the right or intended one or the wrong one. In addition to this, Humans can never create perfect things.
26  Economy / Economics / Re: Banks Won't Make You Rich on: May 08, 2018, 09:23:08 AM
Investment is a great way to increase our money especially invest in crypto, although invest in crypto have a risk but it is really promising to make a lot of profit, as long as we have knowledge about it before invest and we choose coin that have a good potential to increase it's value such as bitcoin.
Bitcoin is the real opponent of banks because people are investing their money in bitcoin instead keeping in bank accounts. That’s why banks assume that bitcoin is a bubble and there is no future of it and people will lose all their investment in bitcoin, while the fact is different. Banks think that if the people withdraw their money from the banks what will they do?
27  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does anyone gamble in race sports? on: May 08, 2018, 07:29:42 AM
Horse racing is the my favorite one.I use to go with my father from my childhood .You have pay a local FIAT on any particular horse ,which you feel the best.Some time it's based on the person riding the house.Now I had some experience on house racing.Personally it will make you rich and poor in a minute based on your luck.
I believe, horse racing depends on the horse and rider equally. Though in reality, it is more horse biased thing. It is not an attractive game for me but people place bets on this game too. I don’t think that luck is as much involved in this game as it is in dice or any other random game. A person who has good knowledge of horses can make some money out of this gambling for certainly.
28  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and investment - different discussion on: May 08, 2018, 06:57:44 AM
It is common sense to not believe what casinos are offering or are promoting for since such organizations are looking to always hit a 99% win ratio over anything or any business they'll do and every case that represents an opportunity for you to win is just another successful way for them to get that money out of your pocket , slowly but surely .
Casinos and their games are designed in order to make you loose and why should they change such ideology and perspective ?
Knowing such things is life 101s and hearing different speechs is something we got used to have from casinos , such as the oldest trick in their books and for which people still fall : the beginning's bonus . Such trick has made millions for casinos that managed to get everything for themselves while teasing new comers with joining bonuses that made them spend twice what they intended to .
With a bit of logic even a baby would understand that such plans will never be rewarding for anyone except the casino itself .
Yeah! Basically they are thinking of themselves much more than they used to think about their customers because if they will start thinking about their gamblers, then there will be nothing much left for them to continue with their as they have to pay heavy taxes to their governments. I will not agree with you in that perspective because gambling is totally depending upon lucky, however this is true that casinos take some amount from your winning too.
Business are about grabbing money from customers with their own consent. All sort of world business first lure a customer, make him happy and persuade them to give their money with a broad smile on their faces. Casinos are no different. The whole interest of gamblers is in revenue. If they will start making gamblers rich, the casino won’t last for long.It is definitely not for doing charity.
29  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Lets be careful on what we are investing on: May 07, 2018, 10:38:10 AM
Like seriously, most of you here do make mistakes a lot. Ever since I got into Bitcoin and crypto investment, I have only been scammed once and I have learnt a lesson from it and I’ve sworn to myself that such will never happen. I won’t fall into their stupid trap ever again. This time around I don’t just rush into ICO investment without making a thorough research about and also asking others that are already into it (if there are) what it looks and whether it’s legit. There are lots of things I verify before getting into ICOs.
30  Economy / Marketplace / Re: I've made 600k in Crypto - When to call it quits on: May 07, 2018, 10:06:39 AM
my advice for you is to pull 95% from you 600k usd from crypto and invest it in real world by buying house or by invest it in your own project and the remaining 5% you should put it all in btc because is the safest and strongest and the largest marketcap so when it mooning you ll have another 600k usd from that 5% im not an advisor lol but if i was you i would do what im saying Smiley

I think you are wrong crypto market is kept increasing and ability to increase his fund when the prices start increasing. So the best suggestion pull out 50% of your profit and start holding remaining about either in bitcoin or good potential altcoins.

yeah, I think to pull out 50% is enough than 95% because we need to split our fund into many investments so we can earn more profit in the future. but I agree that he should invest in a real business like to buying a house or a land because this type of investment will grow in yearly. and he still has another 50% in crypto so if his coin is increased then he can sell it again and make another investment in his real life or invest in crypto. I am sure that if he can do this, his profit will increase too.
Instead of dividing the investment and putting 50% into a different platform and leaving 50% in Bitcoin, I will recommend that he should withdraw 50% and put it to his bank account as achievement he has made in crypto trading. And for the remaining 50% he should split them 25% each, leaving the remaining 25% in Bitcoin and investing the other 25% in something different, that would 150k each.
31  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Newbie in crypto trading, whelp! Bot or human? on: May 07, 2018, 08:38:30 AM
it is true if we are new in terms of our trading world in the beginning did experience losses first. No way we as a beginner in the world of direct trading earn a lot. We need to learn also the ins and outs of trading and must be smart to analyze a chart. If you do not want to bother analyzing a coin price, my advice follow some sort of trading analysis on the telegram channel

I did follow few signal group in telegram back then the only thing I get is loss and loss. Time is matter for if we following telegram group signal. Always need to be alert. I can't bear the losses anymore and I stopped following their signal. Now I'm just doing my thing ,well at least I make some profit thou.
I have never supported depending on any resource whether it’s some human or not. A person cannot really grow by relying on other stuff. doing everything by own may bring some loss in the beginning but those mistakes will help him in getting experience and finding the right path that leads to success and success only. I am happy for you and fully support your decision of ‘DIY’.
32  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: [Becareful of Scamming person] on: May 07, 2018, 08:09:00 AM
The scammers was pretty smart, but how can you be making such a mistake, why don’t you suggest an Escrow yourself than letting them do the job of getting the Escrow Service? And by the way, there are lots of trusted sites for buying coupons online and they all have good reputation. I don’t know why most of you would prefer going through some random guys you find in forums.

By the way, it’s quite easy to find out this guy was a scammers cause first the link he sent you wasn’t from him and you didn’t even bother to verify whether it is him or not. Next he offered to give 20% off the main price, that should have ringed a bell in your head that it is SCAM!. Just a random guy saying he would give you 20% off the main price. Well, that’s his luck.
33  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and Relationships! on: April 15, 2018, 06:02:50 AM
Anyone who has ever been or are in a committed relationship or marriage where both people gamble? Or in a relationship with a gambler with a friend, best friend, family related etc...  Knowing you are in it together is weird comforting and gives me some sort of undefined explanation.

What does that look like for you? Your experience needs to be heard.

Will in reality i never experienced in my life that both my wife and i go into casino  for gambling together, because my wife is a religious person.actually i inherit this kind of behavior to my parents especially my father who been always gambling a poker and cockfighting.actualy during my childhood my father always bring me in cockfight arena and casino to gambling a poker cards and slot machine thats why when i grow up  i know how to play this kind of games and for me being a father and son together in gambling is so weid,thats why when im also become a father i quits in gambling ,to become a good example of my children.
You never experienced to go with your wife to some casino for the sake of gambling because you don’t think it would be a good thing to do. Similarly, others also have the same feelings and they also don’t like to hangout in casinos with their family members. Casinos are the places where one should go with his friend or cousin because after that you will enjoy and if you will go with family, you will return unhappily.
34  Economy / Economics / Re: Why do people buy high and sell low on: April 15, 2018, 05:30:18 AM
I've been one of those people, the people that buy at the high points of crypto and then sell low, losing my money and then later on losing out on a good amount of profits which I could've made. I'd like to know some of the reasons that people do this, besides doing it to cut their losses as that one is my reason.

Thanks guys!

Maybe it is all because of lack of knowledge and  they weren't updated what is the current status of cryptos in the market.
Or maybe they sell low because they are afraid that the crypto they are holding will lose its value.
Yes! These are the most common reasons why people fall prey to this. We need to understand that crypto market is not a casino where you are totally relying on your luck. Here you need to work hard by reading articles, news and all that jazz in order to understand market in the best possible way. Sometime the holding of coins is just like watching a grass growing but patience pays you off.
35  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Tips to survived the difficulties on market downfall on: April 12, 2018, 09:47:04 AM
Hey base on the post I read today many people are hesitating to sell and panicking because of the bitcoin downfall that is happening today so I will just make this short and helpful (note to traders and holders that will comment here about my topic, that my top ideas is just basic but remember that we still have those people who do not understand this well)

HOPE THIS WOULD HELP PEOPLE WHO ARE PANICKING AND THINKING ABOUT IT TO MUCH.

1. Do not panic when market value is decreasing

2. Do not even think of selling you bitcoin or ethereum

3. Do not think about it to much, why? because it will rise like before it got really high and for that a man got a car ,a luxury to point that out. So maybe like him you will get rich BUT in a long term situation

Edit: additional. So, I suggest you go and hold next thing you know your might get rich

FOR INVESTING OR TRADING:

4. DO not invest really high that you can lose (DON'T INVEST WHAT YOU MAY LOSE)
 

5. study the past history of market value ( when holding or investing and even trading)


I have no tips to help you survive the red market. I use a unique method that is that every time the market is red I will continue to invest more. At that time I would buy altcoin when the price is low and will wait until altcoin prices recover

Thank you for your advice. But you have more money, you can invest more when the market is red. for many people . They do not have much money and they can not invest more money when the market is red. Your method is only really useful to the rich

If someone has big amounts available for investing and he also has a mindset of an investor, it would be useless to not utilize that money when the market is red. Buying any asset at a lower price is preferred over buying it at expensive rates.

The whole digital market is bleeding which means it is a golden opportunity for every person to increase his amount of coins.This time once gone won’t come back again.
36  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does your family past incidents effect you? on: April 12, 2018, 09:07:06 AM
Family past incidents will always play an effect in the minds of those who may want to consider gambling since they could have seen some family members that gambling has had an adverse effect on before and hence use that in their own decision making when it comes to gambling.
When family members do hide such incidents for the reason of shame or not encouraging then new generation of people get fail to make use of those incidents. I am saying this because my father hides his many frustrating gambling incidents. If he would have shared then that might have given me a change.
37  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does positive thinking affect your edge in gambling on: April 12, 2018, 08:36:25 AM
Some people think that strong feeling affect the outcome of your bet. But for me its all about luck., what do you think guys.

It may not have an effect of the outcome of your bet but it sure does affect how you will react to the outcome. If you lose on a certain bet and you are still positive that you will win then you are still rational and think straight so you will bet according to your plan. If ever you win then there is a possibility that you will reach your target profit and stop gambling or become greedy and bet more. Positive thinking is vital on how you react to a situation.

If you are thinking negatively then there is a possibility that if you lose, you will become frustrated and bet all the money you have and expect a negative outcome. You are not thinking straight so you just bet all you have because you are thinking that you will lose it anyway so why not bet all. Instead of having a possibility to get back what you lose, you bet all of it because you are losing hope.
Positive thinking exist inside the minds , specially those gambling addicted people, they keep going and keep playing as they positively thinks that
they will be able to achieve their target goals, the problem is, when they achieved the amount it will exceed to a limits and became greedy  thinking
that it will bring them more winnings as lucks permits them, good outcome for those who can control emotions while bad for those who became greedy.
One of the reasons why they always find it hard to get rid of the positive thinking environment and face reality when life and gambling is beating them and exposing them to a more raggedy life. That is what eventually happens and I am so certain that anyone who ends up having such a mindset in gambling will always end up becoming an addict. Gambling is a game of luck and the best is to accept it that way.
 

What I think is the reason behind a gambler’s devotion and passion in this game is his greed. As gambling involves money and winning can bring some amount with zero efforts. A person needs not to put himself under hard efforts but he enjoys the game while he can make money. However, it is not true. I am also with you that it is just a luck based game and should be treated that way.
38  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: finish college or keep playing bitcoin? on: April 12, 2018, 08:08:07 AM
Right now I love bitcoin from 2106 till now and currently I'm in college but by playing bitcoin I can make a lot of money what should I do? I prefer to play bitcoin instead of college. I also realize that bitcoin will not last forever therefore I want to take advantage when bitcoin still exists.

Increase your options, if you can get both the better. BUt you are definitely very lucky to be young and exposed to both
There is no such point of leaving your studies even if you are making very good earnings out of your investment which you have made in the crypto market. Education carries its own significant importance and that you need not to leave your studies in between the middle as you can never rely on crypto investment all the time. you need to manage the things in a way which can help you in better way.
39  Economy / Economics / Re: Cryptocurrencies and our daily life on: April 12, 2018, 06:03:28 AM
You can now in some cases use bitcoin in everyday life: for example, to buy coffee, some products or services. Now many have begun to take bitcoin on a level with fiat money. But in mass use bitcoin will not come soon. Too volatile price and a lot of manipulation in the market.
For now, the usage of the bitcoin and other crypto currencies in our daily life is not that much significant as there are not enough of the places where you can go and shop the things which you want to buy by using your bitcoins. However, there are likely chances that you will be able to do that soon and then crypto currencies will be having a key role even in our daily lives.
40  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Pump and Dump. How to make a profit? on: April 11, 2018, 09:32:34 AM
In my opinion usually some coin will pump when in oversold area/cheap price and long consolidation, and then will easy to pump it so you need to learn about technical analysis.  And also the coin will pump cause some rumor, so will be important to learn about fundamental analysis too.
There are so many reasons behind the pumping of a coin. Some says that when coins become short in the market and people start investing more in them, hence demand increases, so pump comes up the way. But this situation may be ignited with the rumors, as you have said. Such big news can help the coin to be boosted up just because people start following without any consensus.
