2741  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Gambling with BitcoinSV on: April 12, 2019, 04:51:12 PM
It is the first time I hear about Bitcoin SV and as more and more coins are accepted in a casino it is better for the player as he has more choices.

I know though that to be sure all major trusted casinos accept three main cryptos being Bitcoin,Ethereum and Litecoin.The more coins are added the better as this can give power to altcoins to have more value,I think gambling industry impacts crypto a lot.

I would suggest to avoid Bitcoin SV for gambling or savings. Today Binance ceo tweeted and warned SV CEO that they may delist SV if the Craig white keeps on claiming himself to be Satoshi. There are many other good coins in the market, through them we could bet, I would suggest to avoid using Bitcoin SV for the time being.
2742  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can gambling turn an atheist to theist and superstitious? on: April 07, 2019, 11:25:38 AM
We all know gambling is random. We like to call it as "luck" as it sounds cute but it's like "choice of odds" in mathematics.

I'm an atheist and when I started to play, I had a fun experience despite of what I won or lose because I bet small amounts. Then I got addicted because of some big wins so I started to gamble much.

Even if I wanted to think that maybe my winning and losing isn't getting impacted by anything external, I believed otherwise. I believed my winning is the result of the color of the shirt and wearing, music I'm listening to, time of the day etc. Then when I lost big, I prayed to God to help me win/recover. I saw gambling as life and winning is heaven and losing is punishment from God.

Then slowly I stopped and the addiction got away a bit.

What's your opinion, do you believe in God/power that you think may help you win? I think gambling has the potential to turn an atheist into theist because of fear/risk it has. Smiley

Since gambling is luck based, You can only pray to God that you win the games. If you pray and then you win, your trust in God will be built more and you will pray every time before you play gamble.
If you are superstitious and think a certain color or thing can help you win, then you are totally wrong. You should not relate your winnings/losing with such things.
2743  Economy / Economics / Re: Venezuela hit by new nationwide powercut for more than three days on: April 07, 2019, 08:38:26 AM
There is another development from Venezuela. The army has fired on tribal protesters in the Gran Sabana region, and there are reports of multiple casualties. The deaths were from the Pemon Indian tribe. The government is going ahead with a massive gold mining project, which the Indians claim will make their lands uninhabitable. Gold is one of the few remaining forex earners for Venezuela. A few weeks ago, the government had sold 29 tonnes of gold to the United Arab Emirates.

Venezuela is in all sorts of trouble these days and I think united nation should act and give some peace / relief to the citizens of Venezuela.

It's sad when I see the Venezuelan country experiencing such a collapse, the financial conditions affected by inflation like that will make the country devastated, hopefully there are countries that want to help so that the condition of the people in Venezuela is better and not as alarming as it is today.

Venezuela is perfect example of where the economy is in serve pressure and their local fiat currency has lost its value completely. Also you can find that almost everyone in Venezuela has invested in bitcoins and the rate of bitcoin in Venezuela is far more than the normal rate else where.
2744  Economy / Economics / Re: What is the best Cryptocurrency to Invest? on: April 07, 2019, 08:26:46 AM
I am a fan of btc so I suggest to put all your money on btc. There is a high rate guarantee that others are investing in btc for btc market alone has gone more than 50% of the market more.than the combine crypto. However, if you reay want to earn huge then I prefer you to invest in ripple.and Bch. these are great crypto wity great market price pump in the future.

I think seeing the big movement of BTC, you should keep half of your portfolio in BTC. And for the rest half, you should buy only the good coins which have some big news like mainnet, hardfork or token swap etc.  Currently I would recommend to invest on QKC as it has a mainnet scheduled on 31st of April.
2745  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Shill me your trading group on: April 07, 2019, 07:58:34 AM
Are you member, manager or admin of a trading group ?Or do you know any crypto trading or channel dedicated to traders?
 

Shill me the link the group right here (or via DM if you do not want the link to be public).


Don't be a victim of this trading groups that give fake signals for a fee. Even if this is free I will not fall for this. The only one who will get rich are the one who owns trading groups because before they announce a coin that will be pumped by the group, they already placed an order so by the time group members place an order to buy they already positioned themselves in a very comfortable price.

Sometimes i feel that these trading groups can be used as an advantage if you already know TA. For example, you can get signals from Trading groups, then you compare that signal with your Technical analysis and enter in the trade if it seems suitable to you. Relying on trading groups signals blindly is not the right thing to do.
2746  Economy / Economics / Re: KYC for penny money? on: April 07, 2019, 04:53:48 AM
I saw in my social media feeds that there's a lot of people now posting about free cryptocurrency that needed of kyc before you get a penny money. This people not think if it's will good to them to give their identity in any site for just penny money. Yeah it's free but your identity will be possible to use in any harmful doings.

Whats your thoughts about this?


It's a risk to entrust them our personal identity and information. We should choose where to join. I wonder why they have to ask for a KYC if they're just offering free money. We should not trust them easily if it involves our personal information. 

The main purpose of KYC is to reduce the risk of money laundering. Exchanges should make KYC mandatory as this step will be beneficial for all.
On the other hand, I have seen small ICOs and airdrops requires that you first do KYC before the free tokens will be deposited to you. I never understand the logic behind it and also those free airdrop tokens have zero monetary value.
2747  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you think Institutions secretly HODL Bitcoin? on: April 07, 2019, 04:28:43 AM
I believe there must be lots of ways for institutions and companies to hide it: special purpose vehicles, subsidiaries, offshore accounts and companies, hiring agents, etc

I don't particularly disagree with this point

As it may or may not be true. If anything, let's assume for a moment that it is and institutions as well as companies hide their investments in cryptocurrencies. But then we won't know that, right? Therefore, their well-concealed investments don't mean a thing to us as we would still be dreaming of the times when institutional money would come to market, even though it has likely already been there for quite some time (as per our assumption)

For sure Institutions  keep on holding the bitcoins and crypto at a cheap rate. They have the money to keep on accumulating bitcoin. When they have enough bitcoins, they spread positive news in the market and causes the bitcoin prices to rise. These are the Institutions who take most of the benefits when the price rises.
2748  Economy / Economics / Re: Will 2019 take us to Moon or Mars? on: April 06, 2019, 04:54:12 PM
I am sure that 2019 can be better than 2018, this can be seen from the increasing volume of daily crypto transactions and a few days ago that reached $ 90 billion and more than 50% is bitcoin.

Well, 2019 will take us to neither moon nor mars  Wink, it will keep us under 10K. I am sure many of you will not believe me at this time because as of this writing we are seeing another bitcoin pump through which bitcoin is heading towards 5200$.
The reality is that we cannot go straight upwards and there is no big news which can take bitcoin price very high. The bitcoin will fall to 4500$ once it touches 5400$ and from there we may see some sideways movement of BTC.
2749  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bitcoin Dice - why do you play in a particular casino? on: April 06, 2019, 04:34:47 PM
Main driver is trust in the crew that is running the casino and thereby the software on the back end.
I prefer playing at a casino that supports API calls so i can automate delays and switch easier from betting tactics.


The trust and positive feedback are the most important assets of gambling site. If their trust is lost, then it would be very difficult for them to bring gamblers again to their site.

  There is difference in your results too when you play in a casino with manual functioning and where system is automated. But the thing that should make you worry is the algorithms. Whatever sort of system is installed in casinos, ultimately you would be victim. They wouldn’t let you win. Till the date we never heard of anyone claiming he has won everything in gambling. Rather there are hate and repressed stories.

You never know the what algorithms are placed in gambling site in the backend. You have to trust gambling site for that. Other than that if you hear more complains about particular gambling site, you can then just leave it and move to more trusted site.

2751  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling responsibly, is it possible or myth? on: April 06, 2019, 03:30:58 PM
Addicted to gambling is one of the topic that is widely discuss here and because of this we always tent to respond by calling gambling a bad thing or an evil investments.  Op has really advice us on what to do if we are addicted to gamble and that is keep playing but reduce the number of your involment and you are good to go.
Until we don't harm others gambling isn't a evil thing. People out of emotional stress due to the loss happened with gambling sometimes go out of control to the extreme and harm the people next to them. This is the evil thing with gambling, if one is spending his money and losing he should have the mind to accept it.

The good thing about gambling is that other people do not get harm if we play gambling. In case of win, it is the gambler who gets benefits and in case of loss too it is the gambler who gets the pain. It is one activity or game which directly effects the user itself who is playing.
2752  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambler = Future's Failure on: April 06, 2019, 02:43:18 PM
The intelligence of Gambler will play an important role in this situation because the limitation was known by the investor then he will be successful at the end otherwise he will not get the success till he he knows his the proper investment limitation on gambling.
Most of the gamblers know what is in the future in terms of risk on their investments before goes into it.  I don't think we are ignorant of the risk and reward if it went in our favor.  I think before any one has in mind to invest into gambling there is a complete decision that I can lose all I have.

Investment anywhere need through study and investigation and if we jump into certain field without much knowledge, we are likely to be failed.
This is true for bitcoin investments, this is true for trading and also true for bitcoin gambling too. If you start to play gambling without having good information and knowledge, you will lose all your money.
2753  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Chat in gambling on: April 06, 2019, 02:04:29 PM
Chats in gambling is a good idea and a way to build relationships with fellow players.
As long as there are no signs of cheating say on a poker site, then I think this is a advantage to the players.

Those people who are used to play gambling at physical sites, they might feel bore playing gambling all alone. This feature of chat in the online gambling help to reduce some sort of loneliness as they can now chat with other people while playing gambling.
The feeling might not be the same as talking physically to a person, but still something is better than nothing.
2754  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you still continue? on: April 06, 2019, 01:46:08 PM
of course I will continue, this is what is called gambling. I have to bet, I will double my transport money, or I go home on foot. that's the way my ninja is.
I just heard ninjas double their transport money with gambling  Grin. But gambling really addictive and sometime it can make people have fun. I think it is what make people keep do gambling although they loss and got nothing with it.

These are very few lucky people who double their money from gambling. In most cases it is mixture of loses and wins. Roll Eyes



of course I will continue, this is what is called gambling. I have to bet, I will double my transport money, or I go home on foot. that's the way my ninja is.
This is what we called irresponsible gambling, you just allow it to happen in you even knowing it's not the right thing.
I don't think like this, I would make sure that my life would not be in mess even if I loss money, and this can only be avoided if we gamble with control.

Do not play gambling to the extent which ruins your life and then you will keep on complaining gambling for the rest of your life. Taking loans and doing illegal activities just to play gambling is a sign of addiction which should be stopped immediately.
2755  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Where we are now with Gambling on: April 06, 2019, 01:36:27 PM
Since mobile phones became the new trend of technology, a lot of people don't have any time to play at the casino because you can now play in online casino that you don't need to drive yourself at the casino because you can also play gambling whenever you are at work or other place. Online Casino seems to be difficult to play for old gamblers nowadays because mobile phones are not their trend, but it is good for them because as i said that it is less hassle to go at the casino and they don't waste a lot of energy to play gambling.

Everyone uses mobile phone and internet, this includes both the young and old generation. There were lot of hurdles in accessing physical casino but online gambling has removed all the obstacles and now everyone can gamble without any age or area restrictions.
2756  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 Cricket World Cup - Discussion & Analysis on: April 06, 2019, 09:56:43 AM
This edition of the world cup doesn't look very exciting to me. Last time, it was 14 teams, and this time it has been reduced to 10. Out of the 10 teams, five are from the South Asian region. There is hardly any diversity. And the biggest irony is that the decision to reduce the number of participants was made after Bangladesh knocked out India and Ireland destroyed Pakistan during the 2007 CWC. Since there are no minnows, the ICC hopes that the main market (India) will remain at least till the semi-final stage. Goes against the spirit of the game. They should make a rule that India will qualify to the next stage even if they lose all the matches in the group stage.

This is a good step taken by ICC to allow only top 10 teams to play the cricket world cup. Previously we saw about 14 teams used to play and those 4 , 5 teams were just newbie. The early matches of the world cup were sort of one-sided as we already knew those less strengthen teams will lose the matches easily.
2757  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Strategy to overcome losses .. on: April 06, 2019, 04:38:05 AM
In the life of every player, there is a common denominator, the Losses, if you are playing in an inspired way and you begin to obtain losses and you retire with a lower balance than you expected, it is logical that many times the mood goes down, maybe there is a little sadness How do you overcome this? What strategy do you use to leave that experience behind and learn from it to come back? Since there are many people who fall into depression and find it very difficult to return.

Particularly, after having this type of experience my brain recreates some movements of bets and mistakes that I made and sometimes I draw good conclusions to avoid falling into errors, apart from which I am going to do some sports so that the bad things go away.
I think the mindset is more important here to stay a long time and get back from the difficult situation because if you have get certain losses in your gambling you will not be added to do the same thing again at that time I need experience only not the strategy.

Game plan is very important in gambling. If you come to gambling with a hope to win big but have no plan, consider if you lose in the beginning it will just broke your heart and maybe you will never return to gambling. With experience, you will get to know how to come out from losing situations.
2758  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling addiction also a result of trauma? on: April 05, 2019, 05:20:58 PM
I don't believe it, gambling addiction is created along the process.
When we gamblers are always giving time in gambling, usually that will result to addiction, there are times that it will also become more serious.
Addiction is a problem, but you can cure that problem, and learn from it so the next time you gamble, you will enjoy it.

We need to convince our self that we are playing gambling for fun and not for the sake of earning money. Although this is difficult to believe but if we have made the fun to be the ultimate objective of gambling, than most of the problems are solved including gambling addiction.
2759  Economy / Speculation / Re: A chance for Bitcoin to rise! on: March 31, 2019, 04:45:28 PM
Its cool to have been investor since 2016)
Especially if the investor managed to sell all the coins at the end of 2017))

Not many people happen to sell at peak. Rather there were many retails investors who enter the market when the market was at full peak. Their reason for the enter was fear of missing not. Only the whales or the real investors were able to take the profit as they knew the trend and only they know when to sell at peak.
2760  Economy / Speculation / Re: Are we are the beginning of a new bullrun? on: March 31, 2019, 04:06:22 PM
changes in bitcoin prices have changed the price movement for all tokens and coins which is very significant in 2019, not only prices but the trust and increased use of previous bitcoins began to decline

Bull run will not come very quickly and/or all of sudden. It will take time. The market will move in bull run by natural buying in the market and not by the pump sumps of the coins. 2019 and 2020 are very crucial for the bitcoins and they can change the world economy structure.
