4. Keep Track of Your Investments: It is important to keep track of your investments in the cryptocurrency market. You can use a spreadsheet or a cryptocurrency tracking app to keep track of your trades and investments.
I am very agree with this and I want this to become a lesson for every trader, especially the new ones because it enables you to keep track of your gains and losses, assess your trading approach, and pinpoint areas for development.
There are a lot of software now to use how to track your investments/trades, like sheets or any platform free or paid. Be consistent with your record-keeping.
Tracking can be in almost any thing that we do. The common one is for spending in our home, so that we will know if where all the money go and it helps us to save because we can cut some items in the list which are not really that important. We can apply the same thing in our crypto activities.

There is even some who do this in gambling but it's not really advisable because it only makes us chase our loss and gambling should only be taken less seriously. Consistency is important if we are only getting started but once we already eliminate the unnecessary expense and improve the flow of our money, it's fine to not continue recording our activity anymore.
Consistency
Versatility
Emotion Control
Discipline


Here are the few of the key things or behavior on which a certain person should have on the time that they would really be dealing up with this crypto space or market on which dealing with volatile and unpredictable
prices is the main on which you would be able to encounter out. Its just really that right t hat you should really know about the basics because diving into something without having proper preparation and stuffs
could really be resulting into loss of money or would really be caught up yourself into big trouble. We know that there's no such thing about being that perfect trader
but at least making yourself that be sustainable.

Learning could be gained with real dealing or experience which it would really be acquired along the way because there are things which cant really be taught or be read up via theories.
1022  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: May 17, 2023, 09:51:46 PM
I didn’t feel like it was a one sided game. The Nuggets had the lead the whole game but they never got too far out of reach. LeBron even had a chance to tie it with a 3 late in the fourth. Both teams shot excellent from the field. It was a great game to watch. It had everything you’d expect. The big difference in the game was rebounds. The Lakers need to step it up on the boards. They can’t be outrebounded by nearly 20 and win.

Thought earlier that its one sided game but lakers slowly eating the lead until they make the lead of Nuggets to single digit. But they caught off guarded as the time nearly ends since if they could just sustain that energy on early part of the gane well maybe they will not get dominated by Nuggets on game 1. But for sure they learn a lot from thus so they need to be more aggressive and exert more effort on defense since provably they can take the win on game 2.
.
When the Lakers were attempting to reduce the lead, the game became incredibly entertaining to watch. I admired how the Lakers managed to stage a comeback from a significant deficit, displaying their relentless effort. However, they fell just short in the end. The Nuggets have already taken the lead in the series, but from my perspective, it seems like it will be a closely contested series. As long as the Nuggets can secure victories in all their home games, they have the advantage.

Everything about that game was yet another historic performance from THE JOKER!

Good thing they have an answer on offensive set created by lakers that's the reason they take this win on game one. AD perform so well this game one and for sure many want to see how Lakers could answer on game two since for sure they learn something with Nuggets especially on dying minutes. If they could just put  defensive pressure on Jokic and to their shooters maybe the result would be different and flow will be in favor to them.
Actually on seeing that 3rd Quarter run on which the gap is almost sitting around 20 points ahead, i did make out some conclusion that this game is over if ever they wont be finding any ways or method on stopping
Denver but they did able to caught up and close up the gap upto 4 points and into those last minute on 4th, there are indeed clutch plays which needs to be done but its unlucky that last moment where
turnovers happen. I did see on how Lebron trying out to force that 3 point shot for possible OT but it didnt work plus having that missed Reaves pass under the basket which Lebron wasnt able to
expect that and midhandled it out and results into a turnover which if that crucial moment had able to successfuly make out a basket then we might be seeing an OT.
Well having that 6 point lead isnt really that too far off and Game 2 then for sure at least they do know on what to do or making out adjustments.
1023  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Most altcoins are fake (wakanda) on: May 17, 2023, 08:57:53 PM
The first Africa crypto project was established to steal people's money, when wakanda came out in towards July 2021 and did the burn in September
To start with, Wakanda isn't the first Africa project. There was Dalecoin even before I embraced crypto in 2017. There was also Zugacoin created by Sam Zuga, an African, in 2019 or 2020.

Quote
many people wasted their hard earn money to buy enough, I personally use $300 to buy wakanda which accumulate 2billion plus, but since then, wakanda never rise for once, only going down, my money is less than $10 remaining.
I saw through the smokescreen when the hype for it hit the media but I avoided it as my sixth sense told me something wasn't right. My guts were right. It was the same way I avoided the shitcoin, Zugacoin. It's not as if it's an African thing to have bad projects. It transverses all continents. There are scammers everywhere. BTW, don't sell off what is left. You never can tell if there are going to be novice investors who are definitely going to buy it during the forthcoming bull run in 2024/25

Quote
Please what is the aimed of those people doing fake crypto currency?
I believe this is a rhetorical question.
There was also African Coin Exchange's Altcoin AFCE. The project was also launched in mid-2018. But in fact, a complete scam. Therefore, I looked at Wakanda without enthusiasm. He did not arouse confidence.
Not really that bad to consider out some local exchange platform on which we do really tend to support if ever there's one been existing but we cant really just deny that whenever we do tend to touch up some new platforms then there's always having those doubts when it comes to legitimacy on which we've seen lots of exchange hacks and scams around which it would be resulting on losing up money. Same goes into those projects who do just pop out like mushrooms and as an investor then you should really be having that kind of approach when it comes on how you should really be that mindful on making out some research first before
diving into something.This is usually the mistake or error of most people when it comes to investing on which they are really letting themselves driven or get hooked with the hype without even tending to realize
that it wasnt really that much of a preferred way on dealing with it because you are really that putting yourself in so much risks.
1024  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Things that still make feel awkward with some online casinos on: May 16, 2023, 11:56:17 PM
This is why it's important to know these costs beforehand before making a deposit and start playing with that platform. You'll never know what you're getting into especially with the withdrawal fees. If a casino platform has that high of a fee to begin with, I'd never turn back once I leave. If they can't make a profit off of just the games that they are offering and are getting some of the profits from the users' wins through withdrawals, they shouldn't really be operating a casino at all.

Then again, it's their platform, they impose the rules and we just play on them. Better look around and seek for other alternatives that do not ask for such a ridiculous withdrawal fee.
Yes, this is one of the things whenever i do see some new platforms or casinos that emerge on the market on which having that withdrawal fee is really that something to be concerned of. You cant really just ignore
this thing even though its small but something a huge factor which other people been that trying to look or check on because on the time that they do see that the fee rate or price is high than with the usual
network requirements or needs then this is where discouragement and lose of interest would start and would be finding out some another place on which they would really be seeking or looking that offers less fees.
No matter how small the differences is if they would see about $1 0r more difference then people would be having no doubt or second thoughts on transferring. You cant really stop people no not to be mindful
about these usual stuffs and paying up more bucks for just pulling your money isnt really that giving a good feeling.
1025  Economy / Speculation / Re: Halving effects, how long they will last? on: May 16, 2023, 10:59:13 PM
Every 4 years, we expect bull market just because of halving. What do you think when is this chain is going to broken? Ie, halving no longer equals that bull market is coming.

You know for your information, only time will tell when it will happen to break. Because no one knows what you will ask for the future. But even so, the split will remain a significant part of Bitcoin's life cycle. And it will definitely have a big impact on the price of bitcoin in the coming future in my opinion. But it's possible that the split won't be enough to trigger the upcoming bull market.

There is no one who can tell what will exactly happen every halving.
But we can only speculate on this matter. Even long timers and so-called experts can't give you a guarantee on what's to come.
There may be positive movements before or after halving, but we can't say for sure if that will happen in every halving.
Because the technology is evolving fast and we don't know how long this technology will last.
Who knows in the near future, bitcoin will be obsolete, what can we do if that scenario will happen?

Agree with you that the future is unpredictable, bitcoin may continue to repeat history or never will. But as bitcoin investors, we should be optimistic and believe in it because if it continues to rise, we will benefit greatly, so don't be pessimistic. But investing means risking your money, we should also have a plan for the worst case scenario. What I mean is that we need to be optimistic and realistic, not too delusional and not too pessimistic.
We dont really have that crystal ball to know on what the future would look like.It might happened in the past but doesnt mean that it would happen in the future which we know that everything is really that unpredictable.We've seen halving event did make out some trigger with those golden bull runs that we do have into those specific years on which it is really just that normal that people would be presuming out
on this way.This is why if you do have this kind of insights about its potential price in the future then accumulation would really be entirely be depending on you. Its our money then its our full rights on what
we should gonna do with our money and we know that in every investment there's always an accompanied risks which is something that very normal to have.
Whether there's some halving effect or not but at least we've done our risk taking on investing into something which we know that it does have potential.
1026  Economy / Gambling / Re: Gambling is a choice. on: May 16, 2023, 09:59:12 PM
Something happened in my locality and I just wonder if that's how we also behave in the online space.

So, they're always a group of rougues in my country, they're often sited in the market place where there's a reasonable population, what's their work???

The have things in a martch box like stones and sticks, they'll ask you to pick the one out of it that has something, depending on what the want....

At first, when you pick, they'll let you win so as to drag your attention, then subsequent wins, you'll be at the losing side and the make sure the drain your pockets entirely.

So, just last week, this lady fell a victim and she was shouting and crying, the had obviously emptied her pocket and even gotten her phone from her in the process of the gambling.

My thoughts, is this how we often feel when we lose out on a bet??
Do you wish the site can refund your money??

Gambling should be your choice, you shouldn't let anyone compel or persuade you into it.

Actually i do have the same experience wayback when im still on age 11-13 on which i did really go into a carnival and there's someone who do have that kind of game which they would be letting  you a marble be
dropped and if it goes down to the bottom without getting stuck then you would win money but if not then your bet would be lost. They would be giving out that free test out and no matter how many times
you would try and having that assurance that it would really be like easy peazy kind of mindset and feelings on which on the time that you would be putting up some bets then this is the time
they would be pulling up something just to make that blockage on passageway of that marble which it would really be divert out into other path and would be losing your bet.

I did have in mind that it was impossible and i did make out some observations on the time that he had been dealing with other people on which i did able to observe
about that secret toggle anytime that people would make out bets. A clever son of a b*tch.  Cheesy
1027  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you spend more-do you get more? on: May 16, 2023, 08:48:15 PM
There is an opinion that the more money you spend, the more you get in return, it is interesting to find out who really works in this direction. I spend enough money, but I have a fixed income, therefore I will not be able to get more. I don't have rich relatives, and I don't expect an inheritance either. I want to get rich, not to deny myself, but I have to save on everything. Who really faced big expenses and received even more? How does it work, maybe I don't understand the essence of it correctly?
What nonsense is that! "The more money you get to spend, the more money you get"
Of course your seeing the result yourself haven't experimented it, stagnant growth. That's the best your going to get out of a lifestyle that revolves around spending.

You don't make more money by spending, you make money by investing. Spending and investing are 2 different things and they both can't be misunderstood.
When you invest, you just convert your money or some valuable into another form and it still gets to stay with you, you still own the value.
When you spend money, your actually exhausting it, giving all its value alway. Maybe you got some product but then, you either lose all the values in it or have or decline over time.

You just don't make money by spending that's some shitty way to think.
Unless if you do spend a lot on putting up money on investment then this is something that could potentially give out that kind of situation which it might succeed out and bring more profits but
if we do talk about giving out money or spending that much into others just for the hopes on earning more, then in what way? DOnt know on what OP do actually mean about spending
whether it is talking literally giving out something into other people or would be applying out into other sort of things like investment or business? We could differentiate between
those two and there's no sense that you would really be spending up on something which you know that it cant really give out benefits.

If we do speak literally on spending more into useless things just because on having the believe that the more you do give is the more you do receive is just bullshit.
For some biblical aspect then its commendable but of course everything should really be in control if you dont like for you to find yourself on being wrekt.
1028  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Online casino always take risks? on: May 15, 2023, 11:46:32 PM
I am just curious about how does online casino pay for their promotion on their influencers? Where does their earning comes from? How will you get scammed when you try online casino? How can you tell that online casino is safe?
if you ask where gambling sites get income, of course they make money from player and sponsor deposits besides that the influencers they pay, of course that is payment that occurs privately as an endorsement and the nominal received by each influencer will be different

it is important for you to carefully read the high-fives from each gambling site so that you don't get caught up in the dirty tricks of some fraudulent gambling sites, besides that, don't take risks by playing on new gambling sites, focus on old gambling sites that already have a big reputation
And gambling sites earn income from people who play gambling and lose. It is from the many people who lose that casinos can carry out promotions and pay influencers to help promote their gambling sites. Also, if online casinos have earned a reputation, they may accept offers from other companies or sponsors to display the company logo so that people can use that company too.

And it is true that to avoid scam casinos, be careful in choosing the casino. Don't be tempted by the offers provided by the casinos because the more attractive the offer and looks good to be real, the more likely it will become a scam.
Online gambling, a real spectacle. Fortunes made, fortunes lost. Casinos? They cash in on player losses, funding their flashy promotions and influencer partnerships. It's a give-and-take between the gamblers and the house.

But beware the glimmer can blind you. Just like the saying goes, "Not all that glitters is gold!" Scam casinos are out there, reeling you in with tempting offers. Watch out! They're often hiding something.

To beat the odds in this online game, you've got to be a sharp gambler. Research, learn from the best, choose casinos that play it straight. That's how you dodge scams and start an adventure you won't forget.
You wont be scammed as long you would be sticking into something which is reputable and popular or something that known and yes we've seen some scam casinos on this forum but eventually die right away when the community members of this forum do bust it up considering that it is really just that easy on busting up shady places or whatever sites or platforms which had been announced recently. It would be understandable for any business not only limited on gambling but also in other businesses on which they would really be needing to spend up some money for the sake of marketing or exposure which it would be normal. House do always win in the end and its just normal that they would be making such big revenue and to aim for having bigger revenue then of course they would really be needing to take another step to go with those extents
where perks and bonuses do really looks generous and something that really interesting and on this way then this would really be making things more bring profits if they would successfuly
able to hook up lots of players because of what they had done.
1029  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: My experience with memorizing seed phrases on: May 15, 2023, 10:57:53 PM
()
This is something I frequently talk about, memorizing of seed phrases to my mind is the best deal out there but there are a lot of people who disagree with me and say that many people can't remember 12 words seed phrase or they'll forget it. But if one memorizes those words every day for months, he will succeed. I think it offers the ultimate security in sense of you don't need to write down seed phrases somewhere and you don't have to worry about where to save it or who will find it, it's sealed in your brain. But I feel a little bit strange about your case. If you try to simultaneously remember 4 seeds of 12 words, you'll fail. Over 2-4 years, you will succeed but just why do you need 4 wallet? Narrow your focus, it's better for you, you can't handle that much.

Memorizing phrases with our brain is really convenient for us because we will have access to our bitcoins anytime and anywhere when we need them, and we don't have to think about finding a safe place to store phrases. But to say that it is the method that brings maximum safety is not necessarily correct. You have not considered the cases when the unexpected happens to you, many accidents cause you to lose your memory temporarily, and that is the limit when it comes to using your brain to remember. There is no single method that is absolutely safe, and that is why there are many methods or products created to provide an alternative. I have no problem using my brain to memorize phrases, but we still make another backup for ourselves.
Yes, its good to make it memorize and at the same time you are really that saving up those phrases on a paper or some cold storages on which you could assure that complete security. If you do consider on solely memorizing it then i could say that it is really that more prone for your wallet to be forgotten. Why? not all people does have that kind of memory which they could really be able to 100% remember all of those words.
Come to mind that we are keeping these coins for longer years to come, not all the time you would be able to remember on the time that you would be needing to access into it. So i dont really that recommend at all but if you are really that confident that you could remember those phrases or someone does have that photographic memory then its up to you which you could really take this kind of option.
If you do find and feel off that this is more secure then go ahead and do it but i would say that having multiple back up plans is much more preferred than on single one.
1030  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you blame someone for your gambling losses? on: May 15, 2023, 09:59:24 PM
Gamblers don't need to blame anybody but themselves because it's not a random thing that you find yourself at the gambling place except that you get there wanting to win more money than you currently have. We know that often will not be the case because most of the people going there are just donating their money for some entertainment if more people win the place will be closed sooner or later but the reality is the contrary and if the man can't handle the heat in the kitchen, he better get out. But most of them choose to stay and will not gonna leave until they no longer have anything in them which will gonna turn into a disaster later. If they cannot get out of it, it will turn into an addiction and eventually lead to more serious matters such as the OP's post.
I get it, gamblers should own their actions. But I think it's too cut-and-dry, overlooking the tricky terrain. Sure, folks willingly walk into a casino, dreaming of a jackpot. But let's face it, casinos play mind games. The promise of riches and the cunning setup can turn even the steeliest heads.

Dumping all blame on gamblers ignores the casino's shark-like nature. These places are built to lure and hook. It's not just about personal will; it's about crafty industry tactics exploiting weak spots. Instead of just burdening the gambler, let's push for a fairer gambling space. Steps like protecting the susceptible, teaching responsible gambling, and holding the industry to account can dial down gambling's potential harm.
When you are just first time or simple just a noob then you would really be having this kind of thinking but on the time that you had experience several moments or conditions like this on which losing whether on an online casino or a physical one, then it would be impossible that you wont really be that able to realize on whats the reality of this thing specially on gambling.You cant really just point out your finger into someone
just because you've been losing a lot in gambling. There's no other should really be blamed on with your actions but only you.It is really just that there are people who do really love to point out fingers
and blaming out someone on the time that they do really commit out some mistakes or devastated condition of their lives. This is why on the time that you would be able to suffer those consequences then it would
really be having that kind of emotional things been kicking in but once you do have those past experiences then for sure you would really be acting different and you would really be accepting your mistake
but if you are addicted then denial would be always there.
1031  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin trading be my sole source of income? on: May 15, 2023, 09:29:07 PM
As a young person, I am overwhelmed by my curiosity in trading Bitcoin, but I'm not sure if it is appropriate for me to resign my white collar work and return to trading exclusively Bitcoin.

This was a conversation a buddy of mine and I had yesterday, and I felt compelled to bring it to this illustrious platform for the best types of advice and counsel.

Is it safe for a Bitcoin trader to quit their jobs and focus solely on Bitcoin trading if they can devote their time and attention to maximize the benefits in the Bitcoin world?

In any game (and bitcoin trading is a game), it is very important to ask yourself the most important question - what is your competitive advantage? 

Bitcoin trading is a zero-sum game.  Some traders make profits and some traders make losses.  Money moves from one trader to another trader. 

What is your competitive advantage in this game?  Why do you think you will make a profit and not a loss? 

By answering this key question, you will also answer the question of whether you should quit your job and focus entirely on bitcoin trading.
Quitting your job just because you would be deciding to make trading as your main job? Then here are the considerations;

1. See if you are earning and make money despite of the losses
2. If you do see that you would really be needing ample time for you to make more
3. Sustainability
4. You should observe if you are really that could stand alone

Trading as your source of income is really indeed possible but it would really be taking lots of considerations on doing so. You cant really just rely yourself and making it as a living
without having that proper or enough preparation because this isnt something that you could really be able to do so. You would be finding out for yourself
whether you are really able to handle it out or not. It would really be depending or basing up on different conditions as you would be experiencing it
along the way.
1032  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: BEST TIMEZONE FOR SPORTsBETTING on: May 15, 2023, 08:59:26 PM
I use my country time zone which is the best. People in their country will use their country time zone because it will be the best for them. I know the time the favorite leagues fall under if I am using my country time zone and it is the easiest.
Exactly. I don't think time zone is really something that you should pay a lot of mind too cause well the internet is here so if you're worried bout timeslots you can literally view it live from anywhere in the world that has internet access. And even if it weren't the case, what would you do? You gonna move to a different country to find "a much desirable time zone to gamble with"? That's just a massive waste of time. I personally don't bother with timezones and use whatever my country is in because of the abovementioned reasons and because it's not really worthy of stressing yourself over. If you're too worried about missing out on your games might as well keep a note or a reminder on your phone, set alarms and stuff like that. Time Zones should be the least of your worries as a gambler.
When it comes on betting a particular game then you arent able to do so just because it wasnt still open yet but most likely it would really be reflecting out asap or days before. In speaking on trying to look or see the actual game and if it does happen on dawn then its up to your choice whether you would be setting up some alarm clock or would really be just looking for the replay if you wanted to.Its true that it is the least thing
on which a bettor would really be minding off because no matter what you do, timezones arent really that an issue plus it isnt something that you would really be that affecting out your winning chance.
This is really just only pertaining if ever you would be able to watch up that certain game or not but in speaking about game winning chance because i dont see any correlations at all.
This is why its not really that much of a concern or thing to mind about which as been said that it is really that least to mind on.
1033  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin Investment: Good Debts vs Bad Debts on: May 13, 2023, 08:29:07 PM
There are bad debts and there are good debts. Bad debts- loaning money to buy a car that won't be used for business ( Uber, Bolt). Loaning money to buy a pair of shoes, clothes, a piece of furniture etc.

Good debts - loaning money to purchase something that would appreciate in value over time. Real estate, precious metals, commodities etc.

They say poor people have bad debts and rich  people have good debts.

One of the popular pieces of advice you'd hear in the Bitcoin space is to never borrow to invest in it.

Despite the volatility, our hope is that Bitcoin will appreciate in value.

Would you classify borrowing money to invest in Bitcoin as good debt or bad debt?
We cant really make out some conclusion but most like it would really be sitting on that good debt and as long you do know on how to repay those loans or borrowed money on time without compromising your finances

then i would definitely say that you wouldn't really be that a bad thing or decision to be made.It is really just that there are people who do took up the risks on unrealistic manner and does have some high hopes that their investment would pay off on short time which we know that it cant really be just that possible considering that this market is really that unpredictable. Speaking about debts or loans whether its a good one or not,
its not really that good to have loans at all or as much as possible. The fact that we could still able to make earn some income and you should really be that wise on making that extra
to go in the works or would really be having re-rolling.

It isnt really that necessary for you to take a loan first before you could really engage with some investment but if you do really find that it would really be that necessary for you to make
such step then it wouldn't really be that bad on taking some consideration on doing so or taking up some debts just as long you are really that responsible on what are the things
that you should settle once you do engage into it.
Make debt as a good one and this could be done via investment and not really just buying up some cars, or liabilities which it doesnt really generate some potential income.This is the main
mistake of some people on where they do took up some loan just because they do like to buy on something and on the time where they would be needing to pay up, then this is where problem starts.
The golden rule about this is that you shouldnt really be take a loan which is something that you cant really afford to repay on time. You are really just molding yourself to be having
that problem which it would might result on being that getting stressed and being pressured specially when due date comes. Always be that sensible and realistic with your decisions in life.
Dont take a loan if it wasnt needed, and this is why it is really that sensible on having a savings on which its not really that just for emergency purpose but also this could be used
on buying up things that you do like which it doesnt really need to take loan from that.
1034  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The psychology of betting..... on: May 13, 2023, 07:52:27 PM
~snip~
Desperation would really be ending up on a disaster on which it would really be a common thing to happen not only just limited on gambling but also in other perspective in life when making out decisions and on the time
that you do reach up on a state where desperation kicks in because you do want to make or get some profits then this is where certain extent actions would really be done. This isnt something new or a very common
human behavior to be done and how much more if we do speak about gambling? Only a few would really be that mindful about their actions or really that seeking for the sake of entertainment and not for money.
Usually people who would really be dealing off with gambling are the ones who do really come after on making income or profits with it, without even trying to look on the reality that its way too risky on handling out on things. When gambling then you should really be that somewhat realistic on what you should gonna do, dont aim for money or profits because this is the main reason on why people do become that impulsive
and making out lots of errors and mistakes.
Okay, folks, let's jump into the firestorm about gambling – entertainment or dangerous game? Picture this – gambling is like dancing the mambo with Lady Fortune. Sometimes you're lifted high, and other times, she steps on you like a loser. It's like a high-roller dance-off, but no guarantees you'll win!

The big question: Can we separate hope from reality? Can we walk away from the casino, shrugging it off like it's a casual night? Resisting a gold-encrusted apple – can we say no to the massive jackpot?

But careful! Don't think of gambling as a career. It's a mesmerizing tune that'll lead you astray if you forget the limits. Let's enjoy the show, but keep our wallets safe, people!

the reason why a lot are getting trouble with gambling is that they lose their grip because of that hope. hence, many gamblers are going astray. they may have set their limits at early stages of their gambling activities but once they suffer losses, that's when the drive of recovering such loss is getting bolder. well, that's the normal reaction of any gambler esp if he is not firm with his decisions. this is why we are hearing stories of desperate moves from the gamblers. so if you know you are on the brink of such situation, better pull off while you are still thinking straight.
There are people who cant really stood still with their decisions in life, doesnt matter if this one pertains with gambling or not which its never been that a good behavior or quality just like this on which you cant really be able to follow on what you are really that tending to do so with your current dealings or engagement.How much more with gambling? It would really be that significant that you should really be that sensible when it comes to this manner considering we are talking some potential losses on here on which if you arent that good on making out some good or wise decisions then you would definitely be having some huge problems afterwards. Just like on what most people been saying on here is that gambling is for fun, bet only on the amount which you can afford to lose and on the amount which you can afford to take and dont make
yourself find that you are in a situation on which you are really that chasing up your losses.

Its not an investment, its not a source of income, its not a guaranteed profits or money making. This is where usually people do fall into this kind of stuff just because they do really have that kind of wrong belief
and once they would really be pushing it, then reality kicks in.Then this is where people do mess out their entire lives just because they had go into the wrong decision.

Gambling can be quite risky for people who don't understand the risks involved.

There are many types of gambling games in the world, but not all of them are fun to play and give us a good chance of winning. Therefore, it's important to stay realistic and focus on our goals. If our goal is just to enjoy, then we should be disciplined enough to only spend what we can afford to lose, and with that mindset, there's a slim chance that we will become addicted to gambling.

If our goal is to make money or consider gambling as a source of income, then we should gamble on games that don't have a house edge because that's the only way we can have long-term success in gambling.
But even so, new people or beginners still want to try it and see that gambling can be fun. They see how other people play and think that makes gambling games fun.

With so many gambling games, we want to get a different experience, so that's also what makes us deposit more money. We want to feel the atmosphere when we win, so we keep gambling, even forgetting the time.

It's better to forget about our goal to make money from gambling. Many people have suffered great defeats to reach their goals and still can't achieve them.
Our major reason of going into gambling is to make money and we don't need to make it looks like we are very desperate to make money as a gambler which is one of the thing that can make us lose more money in gambling if we are not careful enough. It is good for us to always take some research or better still, ask questions from people around us than to take a decision that would affect us later as a result of our impatience to dig more before we make any bet. The psychology of gambling would help us to know how we can program ourselves to be a better gambler.
Desperation would really be ending up on a disaster on which it would really be a common thing to happen not only just limited on gambling but also in other perspective in life when making out decisions and on the time
that you do reach up on a state where desperation kicks in because you do want to make or get some profits then this is where certain extent actions would really be done. This isnt something new or a very common
human behavior to be done and how much more if we do speak about gambling? Only a few would really be that mindful about their actions or really that seeking for the sake of entertainment and not for money.
Usually people who would really be dealing off with gambling are the ones who do really come after on making income or profits with it, without even trying to look on the reality that its way too risky on handling out on things. When gambling then you should really be that somewhat realistic on what you should gonna do, dont aim for money or profits because this is the main reason on why people do become that impulsive
and making out lots of errors and mistakes.
1036  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Investing in Bitcoin in Student Life on: May 12, 2023, 10:52:48 PM
But the main thing is that bitcoin is still illegal in our country, I invested bitcoin very carefully.
Lately I think it is better to invest in bitcoins than depositing money in the bank. Day by day people have lost trust in banks. It is heard that many banks are going bankrupt and closing down.

Your goal plan is good because you want to make yourself aware of the investment and possible earnings with the cryptocurrency but in this statement even though bitcoin is illegal in your country what are the things you do to buy your bitcoin and store those?, and what are the punishments in your country that let you stop using the bitcoin?, still better make sure you are still having a good way of investing because you said there's a restriction on your country to prevent you from having possible problem on this, but if this is preventing still capable of its good thing because you have the chance to invest as you could. Just understand too how the trading works so every entry you make is profitable for the price movement and set a goal until when you will hold.
Despite of the bans or if ever its really that prohibited on your place or country then we could really still able to deal up,considering that there still various ways which you could buy without even being detected or being caught. When it comes to storage then there are lots of ways you could be able to do so on which it would really be not that much of a problem if someone would really be having plans on saving up Bitcoin despite of the situation then they could actually do that depending on how someone would really be sticking into their goal, doesnt matter on how much you would really be able to accumulate or save up because not all would really be having that better financial status and some are really that good for finding some income despite on being a student or simply they are really that independent.
Its really hard to save up or investing into something when we are really just that dependent from our parents on which we are really that basing ourselves on getting money from them.
Investing into when we are still student is hard but if we do really have that aim on achieving something in the future then it would really be a good step forward.

Visiting a physical casino to gamble there is a time-consuming affair.  Due to which online casinos are becoming very popular day by day.  Because here anyone can gamble at home with just one smartphone.  And in this case gambling is possible even behind the scenes.  So because of this, online casinos are now occupying a very large market. On the other hand, online casinos have become more convenient for decentralized currencies like Bitcoin, where deposits and withdrawals are very easy and huge amounts of money can be transacted without any banking hassles.  And because of this, the online casino market is growing day by day.
Not all places provide physical casinos in several areas and very few find physical casinos in my area, so the presence of online casinos has been truly fast progress in terms of the gambling industry. In the past we only placed bets on the manual lottery sponsored by several agents and most of them could not make payments when customers get a big win, so talking about the comfort is far more different from the online casino that exists today.

Online casinos are much easier and the risk of losing money is much smaller due to deliberately run fraud, unless we enter the site that is not clear and has no good reputation. The convenience provided by Casino Online makes a big encouragement so that this business continues to grow.
Online casinos? Tremendous. Gamble in your PJs. It's like a world-class casino right in your home, with virtual slots and digital poker. But watch out, folks, there are hidden traps.

Sure, it's convenient, but it's a wild, addictive ride. No barriers, easy to lose it all. Time, money – poof, gone. Set limits, gamble smart, or you're on a crazy, endless betting trip.

And hey, pick reputable casinos. Don't get caught in a scam site, stealing your hard-earned cash instead of a fair gamble. Research, check reviews, and keep safe. You'll thank me later.
Yeah, its just that turns out to be a basic stuff considering that we are on an era which it is really that almost digitalized on which there are things which can already be done through online and on the convenience on
accessing out something on the convenience of your own home as long you do have some mobile device or pc and as long it does have internet connection on which it would really be making things that possible.
Due to accessibility then there would be no problems on accessing up things like this, which means that you should really be the ones who would really be needed to be that responsible
in speaking about on dealing up with something. Gambling industry becomes so that big because there are lots of gamblers who do really tend to play and do hang up with these platforms
just to have that entertainment or leisure times.
1038  Economy / Economics / Re: Are you Spending Money the Wrong Way in Pursuit of Happiness? on: May 12, 2023, 07:10:25 PM
actually money can give you happiness but according to your wants and needs depending on how you're going to spend it cause as of now people really need money in order to survive and provide our daily expenses. i agree to your opinion that money can buy anything aside from luxurious things that can give you a temporary happiness but how about spending it with your family and friends which it will give you more happiness than spending it alone.

More perfect and complete happiness is indeed born through family and friends, because humans are social creatures who always need other people in most ways so that their happiness will not feel perfect if someone only celebrates it alone. I also agree that money can give happiness and can also solve complicated problems into light ones, besides being able to use them to meet each other's personal needs.

But for this kind of thing, I've also seen someone who has a lot of money but he can't feel happiness after buying more things he doesn't need, meaning someone who can't use money on his own needs pokies won't find happiness like he wants even though he has a lot of money.
There are really some imbalances in life or something that talks about reality on which there are rich people who are really that lonely despite on having that richness.I do agree that human beings are social
creatures but there are ones who are introvert type which they dont really care should socialization and would really just prefer on doing something or be alone as long he has the money then he could really be able to do things that he do likes or wants.In speaking about happiness then it would really be varying into each person because not all would really be that having on the same things in mind on where
there are ones who are really that different.

Cant really be denied that money does play a huge role in our lives specially that people or humans are really that on that materialistic side on which things that could be bought or they do wish
is something that could bring out that happiness which i couldnt really blame on with. We do have our own likings and wishes in our minds which it is something that get attached with money.
It is really just that there are people who do really spend money on the wrong way but well its their money after all and its up to them on how they would gonna use it.
Its none of our business actually.
1039  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The madness of gambling addicts. on: May 11, 2023, 11:57:30 PM
To prevent gambling addiction one must first learn to control oneself because it completely depends on the person himself. The young generation is attracted to various gambling sites out of curiosity to become unemployed. Starting from the investment of 5-10 thousand taka, getting greedy and losing lakhs of taka is making their life more miserable. Instead of this habit, you have to prepare yourself by analyzing the harmful effects and symptoms or the reasons behind it at least I have come to this decision myself I want to quit gambling. I want to get rid of gambling as the demand is at a level where self restraint is difficult, it is necessary to seek the help of a professional or professionals.

The end point of your statement was true. If you are already addicted, there's a need for professional help.

Self-admission is also one of the factors that keeps you stay and keeps your engagement to go deep. Gambling without control brings
a lot of problems not only with finances but also with your mental health.

You need to have a strong will to stay away and be ready to quit. It takes time and lots of determination before you can
truly free yourself out from gambling.

make it a habit to gamble for fun and only to spend a small amount of money. Spare that you can easily let go and forget.

yes! that's so true
for some users scaling out slowly and diminishing gambling habits over time will work but others will need a complete cut
it'll vary from person to person

having a network of support with loved people and healthy habits will always help
Actually you could really be able to stop gambling if you wanted to and its true that this one really really vary person to person because not all would really be having that strong self control and will to be able to stop
things midway or on point.Yes, there are ones who do gradually make themselves slowly be able to break out that shackles of gambling addiction. On the time that you are really that getting attached with gambling addiction then you are really putting up your finances or entire life at risks because you would really be that spending like a mad man. You would definitely know and realize when its too late.

Anything to excess will destroy you in the end whatever positive it appears in a moment.   A person could be totally peaceful just constantly eating candy bars and they will maybe end up dead that way if they cannot control the constant urge to eat unhealthily.   A person who drank coke, nothing added just fizzy pop ended up dead thats because caffeine in the very extremes can cause death and it is a drug.  She drank from the moment of waking and 2 litre bottles to herself all day, the caffeine causes heart irregularity which means a medical team to restart the heart was required at one point and she did not make it to the hospital and died.  The excess of almost anything must be seen as a vice and yes always be careful with money, reduce your bets to relearn a game if its not going your way.   The luck of winning a game should be a thrill not just money.

Anything which is excess is really that bad an no matte on what things you've been dealing as long it is really that out of path or on the right numbers or principles on which it did really affect
your life that negatively then it is really just that right that you should be stopping nor trying to get rid of it as early as possible before things comes even more worst.
Gambling addiction is never been that good and something that  you should really be avoiding yourself to get attached nor really able to come into this point.
1040  Economy / Speculation / Re: Can we experience $80k this year? on: May 11, 2023, 09:56:27 PM
Why do you think it is easy to reach $80k? The current price is around $29k, it is still quite far from $80k, isn't it? We are already in Q2 of this year, the current price is even not half of $80k. I don't think it is easy to reach $80k, we only may reach the optimum price of around $40k - $50k during this year. Sure, the price seems to keep increasing gradually but achieving $80 is unlikely to happen easily this year. It will be more realistic to achieve in 2024 - 2025, after the BTC halving happens.
We don't need to think about new ATH in current market conditions, but the market price of half of previous ATH is pretty good from a significant recovery pattern this year, Q2 period is very likely to reach $ 40k price as current price is very close to the highest recovery price ever achieved in the last few months, so Q2 has been the focus of the market can get above $ 35k and hopefully there is no correction high on the next move so $ 40k will be easy to reach in the middle of Q2.
It seems you are right, there will be no new ATH this year where the market situation is really not good and hasn't even improved much, just a surprise at first. It must also be remembered that there is no sign that the world economy is heading for a significant improvement yet, so it will affect the progress of bitcoin.
but it's great hope that there are no surprises until it has to be corrected back in last year, same with you I hope Q2 there is a fix to end the year at $ 50K, wait until next year which starts to enter the halving period.

With how the whole economy is moving, it's tough to say that we will be able to get something that will push the price to a new high, for now the current action is on how both investors and traders are working around the market, there's no sign that a big strong bull run will show up and bring the value up.

Though we all know that the incoming halving always brings good effects in terms of the value, we should invest using the amount that we are willing to hold for a much longer time frame.
Breaking that All-Time-High of 69k would never been simple or something that could happen on pre-halving months because usually we do see new numbers after or post-halving season which it would be still not an assurance whether it would be happening for this cycle or not. This is why its better not to make yourself that too hopeful or anticipating because if it wont happen then it would really be a huge disappointment and
being annoyed on what happened or having that discouragement. Be wary and be prepared as always because it might be able to increase its price in the past but doesnt mean that it would be automatically happens in the future. No one really knows on what comes next but one things for sure is that on the time that it would really be increasing out its recognition and adoption then things would really happen along the way.
Lets just not talk in advance about numbers and being that conclusive because there's no way that we could be able to tell on how far it would stretched out. We know that it would really be basing
or would really be depending into some important factors along the way.
