Why do you think that price will go under 4.000$ ever again?  I guess new bottom is 5.000$, we will see about that but that is more likely to me than dip under 4k, some bad things needs to happen to break price almost on half.
Everyone who buys bitcoins now and in under 10.000$ will be early adopter. I wonder how many days this year bitcoin was at new all times high? Next year we will have same number of days when bitcoin will be at all times higher and maybe even more. Maybe I sound too optimistic, this is happening right now and will happen in the future, I have strong logic about it.

This is perfect example of how some people give bitcoin to much power. Many similar threads where people think that bitcoin can solve poverty, bitcoin can solve all the problems in economy, and now we have thread about bitcoin helping kids to save?! Bitcoin can`t help in any of this things, bitcoin doesn`t have power to solve anything, its a tool, and tools are used to make things easier and better but only if you know how to use it.
You can give many examples how to teach kids about saving, probably all of them are good, kids are different and each kid needs different approach. When you teach him how to save he will save everything, not just money.

Good headline, with all this icos, altcoins, new bitcoins like bitcoin cash and now gold this is a real party. Big party, big community, and in that many little ones. This party with airdrops, hard forks is still going and I wonder for how long that can last?
There is no 100% safe investments in icos, we all risk. I`m buying some stable alts, and I have couple coins from some icos. I check every day some new ico and if I like it I get in with some little amounts of bitcoins, who know what can happen, with so many icos its just luck to pick right ones.

Like any other investment bitcoin can be saved for a long term and unlike other investment bitcoin can be much more profitable and make you rich, other investments can make x2 or x3 in next 5 years, bitcoin can go up to 10 times. Saving bitcoins for children is not a bad thing to do, with some little initial
investment in bitcons your kids can have much more one day. I think we need to secure our future and future of our children, so its best to to have more then just one investment. Even thou I`m optimistic about bitcoin and I believe in them, I always advise people to have money in more then one thing, that is more safe, and to be safe today is a privilege.

From my perspective bitcoin already saves many buts, and continue to do the same. It's same with me, I had better life in past year with bitcoins then ever before. Bitcoin is good for earning, investing in it, spending it, gambling with it, I think that now with bitcoins we can do many things, this is the world of possibilities and we need to learn how to benefit from all this, cause this is the future, and its better for us to be prepared for what is coming.

I joined when price was around 300$ to 400$, I can`t remember exactly now. I was earning bitcoins then and I don`t regret cause I didn`t buy, more I regret cause I didn`t save when I should.
But dwelling on the past can`t bring us back in the past, that is nicely said. I don`t see that as a mistake, situation was like that and I needed money, like I need now.
Bitcoin will reach 10.000$ next year, maybe more. I always had reasonable predictions, and that reasonable was mistake always cause bitcoin price raised much more then I reasonably predicted. Cause of that I`m bit more optimistic now, and my faith in bitcoin is stronger, I`m sure that price will go to 10.000$ very soon.

Tips are not given to get something in return for them, its just expression of happiness in moment of big win. I never shared tips in casino, I prefer to share winning with my close friends, when I win something big I give some to my friends that like to gamble too. Giving tips can be seen as a superstition, we give and we expect to have more luck and win more. On gambling sites with chat I saw many times how some people share tips after big wins, and some tips are very generous and some are little, I got tips few times.
People who tip others after big wins don`t have some benefit from sharing tips, as I said its just a kind of superstitions you need to give to get, but gambling will always be gambling, sometimes you will win and sometimes you will lose, giving tips has nothing with outcome.

Bitcoin can be used for anything now, if you can`t use bitcoins directly you can always trade them for your currency or any currency you need. Developed countries accepted idea of bitcoin faster then the rest of the world, in some countries people can use bitcoins for daily needs, but in many others that isn`t possible still. I also need to convert bitcoins in my currency, I think that directly using bitcoins is still far away from me.

My experience in daily trading wasn`t successful, I lost more then I won. I traded daily with bitcoins and altcoins, and my timing in most cases was wrong, just few times I had profitable trades but that wasn`t enough to cover my loses. For daily trading bitcoin is probably the best choice, other altcoins are mostly pumps and dumps, to have good timing you need to be active trader and to be online minimum 6-8 hours I think. I don`t have so much time, that`s why my strategy now is choosing good coins with potentially great future and holding despite bad news and drops.

This is a pretty high bet, I can just say congratulations like some other people and wish you more wins in the future. I like nice comebacks, to win in gambling you need to come back even after losing money. Your bankroll must be very high when you risked so much, and you said in one comment that you had in mind next bet with more then 1 btc.
To sum up great gambling story, you started with couple loses and you endured trough that and won in the end, happy ending for sure, good luck my friend in next gambling sessions.

I didn't think about comparing waves and eth until I saw this thread and what people are saying. Waves is far behind with just couple dollars price, if theres any chances for waves to xkme closer to eth then this is great opportunity for investing in waves while is still very cheap.
Recently I opened a thread IOTA vs Waves and after some thinking I decided to invest in IOTA . Price is falling, but I'm waiting. Waves price is also down from that time, it was around 5$ and now its around 3$ I think. I think I will buy some waves after reading this thread.

You see something I don`t. His reason for hating bitcoins is not some reason at all, he just thinks that he can earn more with altcoins. 'why I settle for chicken gain.` I don`t know why he saying this, bitcoin price made very high rise this year and with bitcoins is possible to earn a lot too.
Why to hate anyone or anything, choose what you like more, no one stops us to like and do more then one thing. Here its better to be interested in bitcoins and altcoins, why to chose one and have eggs just in one basket, when you can have eggs in many baskets?

I'm playing poker there for more then a year and until now I didn't have any problem's. Betcoin.ag pays me on time, I have very high wins on slots, in poker I won many times, in tournament's and cash games. Depends in which time you are there cash games tables are full sometimes sometimes empty, but with tournaments its different, check that.
Its not 50/50, I commented few similar topics and after my comment I didn't saw replays.
Tonight is 50 mbtc thank you free roll tournament, if you are active there come and try to win one good tournament. See you tonight at poker table in 22 15.

There is always a chance that a fiat currency will crash, inflation is going up and the purchasing power drops, what you people think what will happen one day when that bubble burst? Fiat currency is not one, every country have government that controls fiat, in history many currencies already crashed.
I think this system will not last much now when we have alternative. Blockchain will over take fiat one day, no one can say when but some countries adopted bitcoin already, and if they like it they will go full on bitcoin, that means in some countries fiat will crash sooner then in some others.

Many of us feels the same, new icos are coming every day and its hard to recognize icos that have potential to do something more in crypto world. Bounty section is full with new icos, in service section there is couple signature campaigns that are promoting icos and paying in bitcoins for that. Whom to trust more? I'm lost too, I search their sites first, then I check them here and what others have to say about it, I like when community is active that means that something good is happening about something.

Games like roulette and dices can be analyzed from previous results. You can place bets on various numbers, or colors, and each number or color have odd, you need to learn how to optimize your bets according to your bankroll. From bankroll depends what kind of strategy you can apply and how far you can go in pushing your number or color. I always watch previous results, and by that I decide where to place next bet, if I lose I will try again and again, here again depends on which odd I place bets, my strategy depends from that, will I continue to pursue something or I will stop.
Poker is much more complicated, here you play against other people, and other people can be very tricky to read, some people check on very good hands, other like to bluff, and you need to know how strong you are.

Year ago I couldn't imagine that we will speak about 10.000$ so fast, but here we are on 6.000$ , basically we are past half way to 4 digits price. What bitcoin did this year is much more than anyone here expected, now I'm more optimistic about the price of bitcoin andi think that is reasonable to think that price is heading to 4 digits price, that is a question of time, this or in first quarter of next year if you ask me. How much high can bitcoin price go in 2018 year I don't dare to say, but if we go to 10.000$ mark and stay there that will be a victory for bitcoin.

I don`t panic. I think I can relate gambling and trading here, I mean feeling that I have when I lose money on gambling, or when I lose money with trading. I don`t panic I`m a pusher. When everything is going down I push more and if I have money I push with more money. In gambling I had good success sometimes, but in daily trading I lost a lot of money. Now with different strategy, I`m buying and holding some altcoins for a longer time I have more success, when I see that my altcoins are going down I just buy more if I`m able, and some altcoins always recover their price and that is a clean profit.

There is a lot of maybes about this topic, but if governments in one country ban bitcoin people will still be able to use bitcoins just that will be illegal, its not the first illegal activity. Governments can't stop bitcoin, cause some governments already legalized bitcoins and I think that other countries will do the same. Others will create strict laws and try to ban bitcoin but that will be just handful of countries, and they will do more harm to their economy with such actions. Future is not waiting anyone, I live in country that is far behind and I feel it on my skin. Countries that adopt crypto currencies will enter the future faster then other countries.

Forget about soon as possible, that soon as possible is good for rich gamblers or if you have X bankroll and then start with 10% of your bankroll, if you lose it deposit 15%-20%. Rich people can come back in the game soon as possible.
I will tell you about my experience, I remember where I lost my money and how. When I have same amount or more I come back and I gamble in the same way, I win play with a bit higher bets. Many times I recovered my loses and made some extra profit, but there is bad luck also when I lose in a row. Exactly that is happening this weeks with one very nice slot on betcoin.ag, in past month I lost more then 0.13 bitcoins on one slot, and soon I will try it again when I'm in a good mood to deposit 0.1 btc.
Bottom line is if you don't try you can't win and you can't make money, so stopping for me is not long term option, I like to gamble and I like to win, and that win will come eventually.
