1521  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How greedy you are? When will you stop and withdrawn? on: July 04, 2017, 09:11:48 AM
I have voted: "x2 is okay for me". If I had 0.01 I would definitely withdraw when 0.02 was reached, but to tell the truth I have never had so large bankroll so far. Well, we'll see, maybe in the future I will.
I find 2X not enough because i gamble with small amounts - and 0.01 is small amount at the moment.
My vote is 0.1btc, but if I could pick another one i would pick more than 0.1 or nothing...
Edit* Yes, I am greedy bastard.

Yes, you are.  Grin Now I'm wondering how's this working out for you? Most people are suffering from being greedy but maybe you are an exception.  Smiley

What is your total profit from gambling? Is it positive or negative?

Thanks for the info!

Just created an account on forum.primedice.com. I love giveaways and contests!!  Smiley

Going to post there from time to time.  Smiley

There was a pay per post too on the forum but they have ended that due to many users creating alts and making nonsense posts. However still many giveaways are still running from time to time.

That's great, but I can't register on the forum still. The confirmation email wouldn't come although I was resenting it three times. Now when I go to PD forum I keep getting this page with "Please confirm your email" and after I hit "Recend Confirmation Email" nothing happens. I've contacted the support already, waiting for reply.

Gambling is like drugs. They are created in order to make money on human weaknesses. Only units can win, but this amount will not be able to provide them for life, because the thirst for the game will require you to play again and lose money.

Correct, gambling was made to be this way, an addicting one, for a gambling site to make a huge bankroll everyday. They are making up for the prices which is to attract players and to continue to promote their gambling site. Leaving gambling on the time you knew that you were addicted on it is the best idea that you could do in your life.

But when you leave the gambling you can save some amount of money in your pocket certainly. Neither fiat nor bitcoin gambling is not good option to invest your fund in any form.
If you have enough bitcoin in your wallet, you could fund it in investment option likely trading or lending platform.

It's good to leave gambling, but I wouldn't suggest to go for "another gambling" instead, which is trading in my opinion. Isn't it much better to earn using your skills but not risking your money like you do when trading?

Well trading and gambling are 2 different things. It cannot be clubbed together. In gambling you mostly require luck while in trading you require knowledge + clients + skills etc to get the best arbitrage opportunity to maximize profits. In trading like gambling you do not lose 100% of amount invested.


Yes, you do not lose 100% of the invested amount with trading in general, but sometimes this happens. Once I bought the YOVI coin on yobit and it turned out that I can't sell it because it is "Rise Only Market" as they calll it so you can't sell it at a price you want, you can only rise the previous price, but at the high price no one wants to buy it. So having no other choice I started to gamble with it in the dice section of the site and lost it all.

Very nice site: fast registration, 0.00000150 faucet every 180 seconds and bets go fast. Also I like the looks of the site in general. Although Jackpot is very small so far, it's just 0.00017816, I guess that's a temporal thing and it will be much greater with time.  Smiley

Good luck, guys, with your project!

hi guys, i bought 1BTC today and i am wondering to gamble or to invest the 1btc?

if to gamble
 
best site to gamble with a really nice provably fair..

and if to invest.

best investment program wherein no scam.

thank you for your opinions guys

cheers

In my opinion it's better to hold your 1 BTC, neither gambling with it nor investing. If you'll gamble you'll lose it most likely and if you want to invest your money to grow them you can just hold your bitcoin for that.

1529  Economy / Economics / Re: bitcoin provide income on line? on: July 03, 2017, 10:05:09 AM
Yes it's true but it will need some researching so you will know how everything works. If you already know that then its possible to make bitcoin as passive and stable source of income.

I don't think anyone on this planet knows how everything works, not in general, but even with bitcoin. What we can do is to hold and hope that the price will rise in the future. It looks like an easy job, because there are more chances that the price will rise indeed rather than will go in another direction, but sometimes we sell for some reasons, and regret it later when we see that the price has risen.


For me, if you are going to apply for a certain job, it is important if you have a background about it. Having knowledge on the job that you are applying for will be helpful in performing your work. It is not necessary to know everything about that job but knowing what job and duties you are going to do will be an advantage in fulfilling it.

Bitcoin surely gives an income online. Joining signature campaigns and altcoins is an opportunity to earn online without needing to meet your employers face-to-face. No interviews needed, no proper attires required and no pressure in interviews.  I have been earning bitcoins and I can truly say that through it, I can now attend to my financial needs without asking for money from my parents.


That's the kind of income bitcoin provides for me too. You can't rent a flat and you can't live ansolutely independent with the income, but at least you don't have to ask for money if you are going to a cafe with your friends or if you want to buy a book for your study.

It is the benefit of earning bitcoins online, we can now support our financial needs without asking money from other people. I can’t say that I am 100% financially independent from my parents because I still live with them but at least I can now pay for my personal needs, school projects, luxuries, hangouts and etc. without asking money from them. In fact, I share my earnings with my parents because I know that they will be happy if I do that.

Earning bitcoins online really gives an advantage in life for me, not just by being able to have my own money but because I am very proud that even if I am still studying I can already share some earnings with my parents.


That's what I can say about my life too, so yeah, bitcoin has helped me a lot. Only I can't say I share my earnings with my parents, you are better than me in that.  Smiley Maybe when I will be earning more I will try to be like you, at least you gave me a good example.

Yeah, I know what you mean, that's horrible. Everythin's red on coinmarketcap today.  Angry

And yes, losing just -1.95%, like XRP did, isn't that bad compared to many other cryptos.

Once again Japan is being ahead of others and I'm glad that at least other countries have a great example of how to behave.

However, it would be of interest to know how much customers have to pay if they they want to obtain that insurance.
1534  Economy / Gambling / Re: Primedice | Most Popular, Oldest & Trusted | Huge Community | Free BTC | 🎂 on: June 30, 2017, 12:10:59 PM

2 Million! Thanks everyone Smiley


Sidenote: I haven't been very active on bitcointalk Discuss this on our forum and become eligible for special rewards and giveaways: https://forum.primedice.com/topic/24633-we-passed-2-million-registered-players/

Yes, this is really great achievement to get here but as I can say your bets does not really show that your site have really 2million players. 2million players to get only 17millions billion rolls? I do not know about this thing but it seems that your rolls is a little bit slow here. Anyway congrats for this achievement

17 billion, not million. Wink

Yes, it is 17 billion. Sorry for wrong writing but 2million players only roll for 17 billion, it is slow too. May be your bot is a littlw bit slow here? With 2 million registered I suppose to see more rolls, except most of them is some alt account which only registered to claim faucet

The number of rolls and the number of registered players are not so that important compared to the number of btc wagered on site. If you are a gambling site owner then I'm sure that you would prefer to see bigger btc wagered amount than bigger number of registered players/rolls.

I'm pretty sure Primedice does pretty well in this area as well: https://dicesites.com/
handily beating all the competition,top spot both daily and total wagered


Because Primedice is number one gambling site, no more no less.  Smiley I'm in love with this site from the very beginning of my gambling experience. My very first 100k+ satoshis were earned on this site (50k was a tip from a kind person and another 50k+ I was lucky to win there).
1535  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Paying airline tickets with Bitcoin? on: June 30, 2017, 11:02:08 AM
You probably can buy airline tickets with credit cards. There are credit cards that use Bitcoin, get one of them and you can spend Bitcoins and get tickets in return.

But I wouldn't now, with the same amount of Bitcoin you may travel the world in some years

That's a good advice btw.  Smiley Just think of it. Now you buy a ticket for $600 worth of BTC and couple of years from now you might think: "Wow, I spent $3,000 worth of BTC at the current rate on that ticket!"

You could be hit by a meteorite tomorrow. At some point you actually have to start enjoying your money. And I assume no one is going to spend their last BTC on a trip to nail ladyboys.

Well, you assume wrong, if to not take into account the last part of your sentence, which is obviously not the purpose of a trip for anyone, only for some maybe. $600 is a big money and many people, if not most people, have in their wallets less than that amount worth of BTC. So if they are planning to buy airline tickets with bitcoin, most likely that would take almost all they have.

It looks like an easy job, because there are more chances that the price will rise indeed rather than will go in another direction, but sometimes we sell for some reasons, and regret it later when we see that the price has risen.

After selling my bitcoins I never regret because I am earning bitcoins so that I can spend them whenever I am in need of money so there is nothing wrong in spending bitcoins and I am very well aware that even if I spend them I will earn them back so no big deal.

Good for you, but this is not the case with everybody. Sometimes after we sell our BTC the price rises to such extent that people start paying less in BTC for the same work done, so it's pretty hard to earn the same amount we sold.
1537  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Dice game strategy? on: June 30, 2017, 10:05:37 AM
Good catch ! Advertising strategy in the name of dicing strategy ?
I guess a common gambling strategy will work regardless of gambling sites. If it is true, there will be no meaning of the looking for a strategy for one particular gambling site.

There are no strategy that will work, I have tried alot and Im still losing. I wonder why at first but I came into my own conclusion that we cant win in gambling that is why dont even think about it. I have been thinking like this for a long time and I realized my mistake however the result is that now Im addicted with it

I wish if there will be some strategy to remove addiction. Everybody is talking about dice strategies but what about the addiction. All of us loss in gambling because of our addiction and greed.

There are many of them actually, just take a look at other threads. Here's just some of them:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1895587.0

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1845887.0

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1575341.0
 
But I recall there was a thread with the topic like "How to quit gambling for good" or something lile that and there were many helpful replies in it.
1538  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Buy more bitcoin or wait for August 1st? on: June 30, 2017, 09:54:53 AM
It has never been a bad idea to buy more Bitcoin up to now. It is probably safe to buy more Bitcoin both now and after August 1st. Enjoy.

Agreed, but right now when the price is still hovering around $2,500 is a better time for buying than in August 1. No guarantee that staying this low will last long. Don't forget that these days the bitcoin adoption is rising like crazy.

This happens in the best case scenario, but unfortunately, as I personally heard from some gambling addicts, they think about gambling even when in a retaurant, or in a movie theater, or when going to sleep. An activity should be really interesting to distract an addict from gambling.

I know now some gambling addicts that really live and breath gambling. Its like its already in their bloodstream and all they talk is gambling. I think this kind of person would have difficulty in getting out of the gambling world. I don't know what will make this guys quit for good.
Sometimes they only let you to see what you wanted to see to them but in reality you didn't know what's really happening when they are not playing gambling. Of course they have to talk about gambling because they have to prove their skill and they have to show their skills about it to their friends who played gambling.

But in the long run you never know what would happen to them if they still play gambling in their whole life. It could destroy them at the end of the day because when you gambling you will not always win and it could lose all your money if you don't know how to control yourself. Sometimes people only played gambling to release their stress or to have some fun.

That's the best thing people can do with gambling imo. Many people witness that gamble does release their stress and others say that after having fun with gambling they work more effectively. Gambling has its ups and downs, so let's user the ups.  Smiley
1540  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [XRP] Ripple Speculation on: June 30, 2017, 09:09:23 AM
^im sure Ripple devs know about ,price, value ,supply and demand..but i dont they they know the short term and long term potential prices of XRP either.
They speculate probably a bit better than some due to the understanding of there tech..
however things like margin trading and other things have a knock on effect on XRP price...

this is where devs are a bit lacking due to the hours they have..they have dev work to do,families, socialise and importantly ....sleep lol
They dont have time to sit and analyse the whole crypto scene daily, weeks months and years on end.
i say, traders have better knowledge of where the markets are going and devs have better knowledge on where the tech is going.
not all devs are gd traders and not all traders are gd devs  Smiley
only by combining our knowledge...its then we get a clearer view of the potential

That's why I wanted to see the reply from JoelKatz since he's an employee of Ripple. Of course we all know that no one can predict the price of any coin with 100% certainty, but still we speculate expressing our opinions, and right, by combining our knowledge we have a chace to get a clearer view of the potential of XRP.

But it looks like JoelKatz doesn't want to make predictions, and that's partly understandable because many educated people regard predictions as something very unreliable.

He probably doesn't want to be blamed if something went wrong. But if you can speculate it by how big the marketcap of this coin when its not even yet actively used, you'll foresee this will eventually bubble up. Only a matter of time we'll see how XRP is going to rule.

Yes, I think so too, but still it would be interesting to see an opnion from an employee of Ripple.

So far it is still staying under $0.3, which is kind of unexpected for me. One month ago I thought we'll have $0.5+ in a month.
