we are talking about gambling here and sometimes going all in is a part of the feeling you want to get out of gambling. some people like the risk and nothing else that is why they take bigger risks. and that means betting all you have in your bankroll.

and besides betting all your bankroll can also mean winning a lot since you are making a big bet. imagine if you bet 1BTC and with one click you win 1BTC isn't that wonderful? but that is only true if you accept the loss too.

then sign a message from a key containing at least 1000BTC and share it here.

and to your main topic i have to say you are making wrong assumptions, millionaires aren't going to invest in bitcoin to increase its price. bitcoin price is going up with or without millionaires investing in it.

it is like saying Apple shares has gone up because millionaires invested in it when it was less than $1

i seriously doubt that there is anything normal at all about a 92,000 unconfirmed transaction. a normal growth would have been 20 to 30K tops. this number is unreal and a spam attack for sure.

the only reason for price rise is always adoption and nothing else. and more adoption leads to more demand and that simply rises the price based on supply and demand relationship.

all the rest of the factors such as capital flight!, ETF, and other weird things you hear in other topics, if they lead to more adoption that means they are contributing to rise by adding more people.

although halving means is the only thing that is contributing to less new supply so less sell pressure by miners hence price rise.

well, i believe you still need some sort of experience in those games too.
of course it is obvious that you need lots of experience in the other types of gambling that are skill based such as the poker game and also the sports betting but even in dice if it is your very first time you won't be able to make a strategy, know how to make better plans, etc. not that it changes the final losing result in the long run but experience can increase the length of that long run.

that is the nature of gambling games, you are filled with thrill and excitement and that is what makes them addictive. but if you are getting way too excited that means you are either this way by nature or you are making big bets, in that case you have to decrease the size of your bets to reduce the risk and have more calm betting experience.
and if you don't then you will either quit gambling soon or lose a big amount of money and then leave it.

running a faucet is "Always" a bad idea and is a pain in the ass. because it is not only one thing that is hard but everything about this thing is hard.
for example the first thing is to find advertising networks that both pay good and don't restrict your account because it is a facuet.
the other thing is fighting the bots and the adblocks which everyone these days are using and will prevent you from making money.
and the third one is getting traffic and people to be stupid enough to waste their time on a faucet for earning dust.

well, all of these are very helpful solutions to get the word out there so that more people find out about bitcoin. but we can just buy and hold to wait for the price to go up.
although as a regulare user i think if you can only tell the people around you about bitcoin you already acheive a lot.
running a business, etc are good but not for regular users.

and in short the only cause for bitcoin price that can stick around is more adoption. all the hype,... rises won't last longer than 2 weeks.

they are never going to be removed because they are fiat and millions of people are using them and will continue using them.

but if it is removed we are back to stone ages and we would have to measure the value based on other objects. like how many animal skin does 1 bitcoin buy

actually it seems like it was perfectly possible to do that. China did de-Chinalize themselves. we no longer can see the same volume coming from China and then with the latest restrictions the volume on exchanges went to practically zero and everyone is not OTC trading.

i hope at least one good thing comes out of this when we stop seeing so many China FUD.

Supertition has always been a part of gambling and i can't say i have Supertition but i certainly feel like it sometimes.
this comes from the fact that gambling is a random thing and you can never predict anthing about it, that is why people try to associate it with extratrestrial events and things that they don't know. and because of this randomness, sometimes they win and thing their beief in a Supertition was correct and they keep doing it more.
but if you think about it more you can see there is no Supertition in our logical world.

the keyword that everyone should pay attention to is "a portion of" and that should be the most important thing when it comes to investing. and that portion should be something that you can afford to lose and also at the same time should be an amount that you can buy a decent amount and make a decent profit when price goes up.

i agree, we have got so many good news coming for bitcoin too. with Trump's bitcoin freindly financial team i am sure we will see a lot of things too. and besides the 40% rise is nothing for bitcoin, we always see at least 100% rises for it in a year and if this year lives up to the expectation and then the ETF is approved i can expect $2000+ by the end of the year.

it is always good to hear about new businesses accepting bitcoin but Mercedes Benz accepting bitcoin is a small one in my opinion because it is not a day to day thing and most people don't want to spend that much bitcoin anyways.

and Dell has been accepting bitcoin for a very long time. it is not a new thing.

how do you even say that?
have you checked the security of google email service versus other email provides such as protonmail and came to that conclusion?

because in my experience when it comes to open source projects and security the more people that are working on the project and the more open the project is, it becomes easier to find out bugs and make it safer rather than a closed source thing that only a certain number of people no matter how experienced are working on it.

you are just word playing and you don't know the meaning of gambling.
 you can call a "glass water" a "shoe" but that does't make the glass a shoe!

calling investment, or trading as gambling doesn't make it true. gambling is something that you have no idea about the risks and they are always high. for example when you roll a dice or bet on whether a team is going to win a match, you have no idea what can happen and can never predict. and losing means losing all.
but when you trade or invest the risk can be calculated and avoided if there is any risk.

i will always cash out any winning profit that i can make from gambling. because i have very bad bunch of experiences making me wish i never made those mstakes, every time i won something and didn't cash out i ended up losing both the profit and even more from my bankroll trying to win it back.
i promised myslef never again.

if you want to invest in bitcoin, the only thing tha you need to know about bitcoin is that its price is rising and it is going to rise because there will always be an increasing amount of demand for bitcoin and the supply is not rising with the same rate and it has a cap.
the ETF you are talking about will cause this demand to rise at a higher rate which means a faster price rise for bitcoin specially in short term.

but nothing you said in these comments are the reason from inreased interest towards bitcoin in African countries. the economy and all these other things can always affect the fact that people seek other investments to make more money but they are more interested in bitcoin because of all the rises that bitcoin had in the past years.
people around the world are all interested in bitcoin. you can't see it on google trends sometimes because they search for it in their own language.

i don't think there is anybody around these parts that doesn't like live gambling in a real casino. we all love to be bale to do it, and it is indeed entertaining.

but not all of us get to do it. because some countries don't even allow gambling so obviously they do not have any live casino.
some one places only have good casinos in other cities so you will have to travel to another city, spend a day or so to be able to gamble there.
in both cases we are left with online gambling.
