traiding is more investing , you will never lose . Or you win or you are bagholder in trading you also don't have assurance that you will lose but catch is you can recover and you will not lose everything because you can control the price while in gambling when you already done betting you can't control you are just waiting and hope that you will not lose the bet or else everything will be burned out, similar think is both you have a risk even to earned or to lose. you never have any kind of assurance when you do investments and you can never be 100% sure of any investment even if it is the most fool proof investment you can always lose a part of your investment. that is why they say invest what you can afford to lose.

yo be honest i sometimes think about it. thinking about going all in bitcoin, and invest all i can afford to spare and put it all in bitcoin to have the biggest amount of profit possible but then again i get scared and don't do it in the end.
hence so far i have invested about 50% in bitcoin and i try to increase it over time.

What methods would you guys use to get 10% profit with the lowest risk if you had 100$ to invest? martingale? I am pretty curious!
10% profit is a huge amount if you are looking to earn that much in a short time but if you like to earn it slower and over time then it is doable. even with martingale but it is always so much riskier to gamble rather than investing it in something legit.

Who do you think are the higher rollers...
Gamblers online at bitcoin casinos. or Gamblers that play at physical casinos ?
Finally, why do you think that physical casinos attract more or less people (excluding the fact that bitcoin is not mainstream)
i am sure that people are making a lot bigger bets on real physical casinos especially those in Las Vegas, because there are a lot of millionairs playing at those casinos while bitcoin (online) casinos are only attracting small time gamblers so far.

a year from now there can be a lot of things in bitcoin that has changed it and made it more valuable. but if i want to choose a price for July 2017 i choose anything avoce $700 to be 100% correct but by how much higher is not easy to answer.

yes it did. not significantly but still! earning money tends to have that effect on people's lives. and for me since i am earning some money on the side it is really helpful fo have an additional income on top of my main salary.

Let's say I generate a new address and by some miracle it has Bitcoin already in it belonging to somebody else. Is it legal to just take it? I understand those odds are very low, no need to lecture me, I'm just interested.
some may think of it as stealing bitcoin but what you describe is not stealing it is super duper uber luck. and that is something that will never happen in a million years. but if you could create an address with balance then by all means take it and think of yourself as the luckiest person who has ever lived and will ever live in the whole universe because the chance is so small.

I hope Apple or other companie besides microsoft accept bitcoin to purchase their products, would be insane to have more companies joining the game about bitcoin.
can anyone point to any company accepting helping the price along? i can't think of any examples. at the end of the day the only group it would appeal to is people who already have bitcoin and there ain't too many of them. why would someone who wants a new iphone buy bitcoin with their credit card first so they can buy it? they'd buy with the card. the only thing that would make a difference would be huge discounts and margins ain't exactly generous enough to allow that. for now retail's a dead end. before it's used for that more people need to believe bitcoin is there to preserve their wealth. it depends on the company and much it is being received by its customer. for example a small company with small number of users is not gonna affect anything. also the effect is not gonna be right away. it will take a long time so people start to realize that bitcoin is in fact a real currency and not just something for the nerds to play with.

It's because of the big high you get when you win. And when you lose you want to make that money back by betting more than the amount you lost to recover it. It's a vicious cycle unfortunately. thefeels
Very true and it has always done. I've also never done it, because at that time I was in need of a lot of money in a short time, so I did some gambling with great emotion and greed. yeah gambling is all about making our mind more addictive, it doesn't matter weather you win or lose your addiction towards it will go on increasing and only one way to get out of it is just go to rehav and consult with the psychiatrist ! you have such a negative thinking about gambling. things aren't that bad in gambling, or at least it is not this bad for everybody. a lot of us are in control and also make some small money on the side while having all kinds of fun gambling without getting addicted.

What you like when gambling alone/ with your friend? gamble with your friend or alone playing in your room/casino. i would like to play alone because i think i must concentrate when gamble.
i like both of them. well, in fact it depends on the game that i want to play and also it depends on my moods. sometimes i like being alone playing dice at home. but sometimes i like being with my friends playing with them and playing poker.

If the technical issues and limitations of Bitcoin will be fixed then yes. But this needs to be fixed before Bitcoin can reach new highs. It would never happen because Bitcoin is now flying with colors.lol.The only direction that Bitcoin would take is only going up. so as as of now buy Bitcoin as much as you can because in future the price would be doubled or even tripled and that could gain a huge profit for anyone of us. there is no technical issue nor any limitations with bitcoin. and anything there is are only minor issues which are fixable easily and over time. i think you are pointing at the block size issue, which is nothing serious because despite blocks being full there is no pressure for rising it since the number of unconfirmed transactions are low and normal number.

$400 plus when?
We have already passed the $400 and it is at the moment almost $700 and I believe that after the halving the price is going to rise again. At the end of 2016 the value is going to be $1000 or at least that is what I hope for because I want to sell. Well, I think we quite have the same thought. honestly, I waited akhirt this year to see the increase in the value of bitcoin. this time I have predicted that the likely price of bitcoin will be $ 850 or more at the end of the year. with a fairly long period of bitcoin successfully passed the $ 400 price back this year. I think it will also bring bitcoin at a high price if current prices continue to be stable and not declining, there is the possibility of year-end prices could reach $850. but if there is a decrease in I do not think it would be easier to reach $850 at the end of the year. The price of bitcoin is quite stable with minor fluctuations, possibly this price is expected to make a gradual increase within few months. This might help users experience the price of $850 by the end of this year as most users quoted. i think it is going to jump again so soon. the stable price now only proves my theory because it was stable before too when the price started to rise and each day you checked the price it was already up a lot. so i wouldn't be surprised if price went to $720 in one day and in 3 days reached $800+

what proportion of bitcoin is actually spent? i'm gonna guess that it's not very much. using it for shopping and all is cool but i think it's a little bit of a sideshow. most of the action is trading it and speculating.
the bigger question is if no one speculates on bitcoin what might happen?
I think this is the closet to reality. Very few people spends bitcoin outside of the BTC world TODAY. I have yet to replace any FIAT transaction with BTC. i don't know, you may be right about this but i have always tried and actually prefered to spend bitcoin instead of fiat anywhere i can. for example as soon as steam added bitcoin payment to their system i started using it instead of using any other method and have already spent around $100 there

Now people are leaving ethereum, as they now not have any trust on etherum, I think you should have to join some other altcoins, Like you should have to join Yocoin, or letItRide, I am seeing a lot of people buying these coins,
I think you should advocate more in various threads so that people will sell and big whales can accumulate. Ethereum is already popular so no need to advocate in different threads, it is just natural that a certain coins will face crisis but what matters is if they can survive or not, what I see with ETH it can survive the crisis base on the my study on the trend. ethereym has never been "popular" it was hyped up. there is a big difference between these two. and this crisis is a big one that caused a lot of people who had a little bit of faith in it, lose that and leave it behind. and i am sure whales are doing their best to keep the coin alive but it looks like mission impossible.

Anyone ever stop gambling? but then gamble again?
What are the reasons you come back to gamble?
yes i have done this twice already i quit gambling because i was starting to lose more bitcoin that i cared to lose so i stopped playing for a while to prevent more losses and gather more bitcoin. but i came back again because i wanted to continue gambling and have fun and try to cover some losses if possible.
|
|

the losses are always limitless. you can always lose all you have over gambling because you can alawys lose control and get mad because of a losing streak so you start betting with madness and then start losing more and more.

i love playing dice games. no matter where i am and how much bitcoin i have or don't have i can always play a dice game quick and clean with no fuss. i just take out my phone and start making some bets and enjoy the experience.

nah, these news like this actually scare me because the government is no pro bitcoin and never have been this way.
and i don't see any reason why they should change now and become supporters for bitcoin even if she is the new president i doubt anything in this area would change.
|
|
|
i don't think bitcoin will ever be replaced by anything else. although i am only talking about in my life time and have no interest in talking about a hundred years from now. bitcoin is the new technology which is growing itself, so it is not yet old and obsolete like fiat so any new technology has to come a lot after bitcoin gets old.
|
|
|
i wouldn't just leave a market completely just because i want to invest in bitcoin, so if i were you i would still keep my investment in stocks and also invest in bitcoin.
it is all about diversification.
