He will eat death threats for his breakfast, lunch, dinner and might be dream of it when he sleeps at night, if he would fall asleep with those kind of stress he'll be having when he reveal himself in the public since the start. Greedy powerful individuals will be the top danger for him, because no one wants in the government for fiat to be overthrown by Bitcoin in the future.

I could never imagine Satoshi Nakamoto having a peaceful life if he did show himself in the public when he released Bitcoin.

I agree.

Trading is indeed a very complicated way of earning money, especially if your mindset is to get rich overnight, or get big profits in every trade, that will just pressure yourself that will lead to big disappointments every time you will make a bad trade. The next thing that will happen is that your mental and emotional health would be affected and sooner it will be the one who is going to dictate you on what to do next, that mostly are bad trades.

The next would be chasing you losses because your pride said so, you'll never grow because your pride said so, you won't get back your losses because you will keep making mistakes, and that is because of yourself telling that you don't need more knowledge in order to gain back your losses.

Most people do care about their privacy, but they don't know if they have some privacy if they are doing something on the internet or maybe some really doesn't care at all. Some people are too confident that they are safe as long as they are not doing any shady things in the internet, but that's not the case. All of us are not safe in the internet if we're not aware about possible things that could happen if we are not going to be careful, like randomly clicking links, deep diving in the dark web without proper knowledge and skills to stay anonymous, etc...

Fiat doesn't have any security at all, compare to cryptocurrency, that is why I love to store Bitcoin rather than fiat because it is more convenient and has a lot more value than fiat itself.

I don't think it is related to that. Satoshi is a common masculine name in Japanese if I'm not mistaken, but they have different meaning, depends on the character you are going to use when writing the name. Satoshi Nakamoto could mean the exact same thing that google says;


or it could mean a lot of things we don't know that might too far from the name itself.

I very much agree with this.

It's really a bad advice to tell someone to use their credit card for luxurious things that in the first place, they are not thinking on splurging with.

Using your credit card for your wants once in a while is okay as long as you have the means to pay it and if you know it to yourself that you are disciplined enough to pay it back before the due date. Spending it to your necessities and to increase your credit score could be a good way to maximize your credit card usage for rewards and points accumulation which you could also utilize in the future.

However, telling someone to use it for gambling just gives me a negative vibe because a person that has a credit card doesn't necessarily mean he's already equipped with financial literacy. Most people especially the new cc holders fall into the trap of borrowing money and ended up accumulating big interest and loans they can't afford to pay. Which could literally ruin their life if ever they'll be victimized by continuous use of credit card without having the right mindset of obligation in paying.

I'm so sorry for hearing that you have gone through. It's indeed very disheartening to know that your expectations weren't reached because tables have turned during the actual event. It's not the end of the world for you though. You will have a tough time, but you will certainly overcome it once you already accepted that you've lost.

The process of grieving especially if you lost a big amount is excruciating, but it will not always be a bad day for you. Just make sure to analyze every angle first before betting. Do not overlook any slightest possibility of the other team winning. Consider the risks, and from there, decide on which team you will bet on to. It's much better if you won't go all out to minimize the risk of losing one time, big time.

It's indeed not advisable to chase winnings after winning consecutively the same way with chasing a winning after consecutive losses. Both aren't really a good idea because it could develop addiction on the gambler's side. You can go in the repeated cycle if you will keep on doing that and eventually, you'll find a hard time to break the chain to that cycle.

Refrain yourself from going beyond your set limitations so that you won't go over your allocated budget for gambling and you won't be dependent on it. Just set a fixed target of number of bets regardless of wins and losses and stop if you already consumed your tries. Do not be so greedy and hungry for the profit because it isn't really guaranteed.

It's actually the golden saying when it comes to gambling and risking in general. You should only risk what you can afford to lose, always. It should be carved in the mind of everyone so that there would be minimal regret to be felt wherein you won't be affected so much when you suffer from unexpected loss.

In gambling, there would really be times where you'll experience bad circumstances. Sometimes, the odds won't just side on your favor because it doesn't just feel like rewarding you. But it shouldn't be enough to feel you shaken and anxious to the point you'll go depressed. Just always set limitations and bet moderately and responsibly so you won't get bankrupt and you won't hate yourself in the future for making awful decisions.

Personally speaking, I am not a gambling addict nor I see myself being one in the future. This is simply because I am disciplined enough to know where to draw the line. I set my boundaries beforehand and I do not really adjust it in the outcome of a bet if I'll make any. It should be known and practiced by the gamblers to set up limitations regardless of ratio of winnings and losses to avoid being addicted in gambling.

I checked the link you provided and it definitely is a good read. Knowing the factors and different levels of being addicted can help someone prevent it from happening to them. Staying away from being a gambling addict could help you so much to stay away from trouble.

Stake is really the one of the frequently used and recommended website when it comes to having variety of games to offer and the way they handle the concern and issues from their players. As far as I know, they have an active thread here in the forum to address the problems and offer resolutions.

Although there are certain instances wherein they weren't able to satisfy their players in the resolution provided. I guess there are really some circumstances such as that casino websites encounter. There are many other websites you can look up to that offer great quality of service and support. You just have to make a research to know which is which and to verify the suggestions you'll get here in the thread.

It was in demand during the pandemic because people were so bored and have very limited access to do other recreational things in the comforts of their homes. Hence, they tries to find other ways to relax themselves and have some past-time. Despite the bearish market as well, many people are still engaging in gambling because they see it as a form of entertainment and way to earn some profits while making bets.

Indeed, competition will be tough because there are now so many casinos or gambling websites that are reputable and credible which will offer your good quality of service and variety of games to play with. It will just be a matter of consistency. The consistency of the casinos in offering great quality of service to their players will matter the most in this modern competition. How long they can satisfy their players and how innovative they will be to attract more players in the long run will keep them afloat the gambling industry.

A person that is addicted to something can still be a good person. However, that person must undergo certain treatment in order to fully recover and regain his overall well-being.

Being a gambling addict can affect your life in so many ways. If you are addicted in gambling and has no self-control overall speaking, then most likely your life will be ruined by your bad habits. If one of those bad habits is borrowing money, doing illegal activities just to earn money to sustain your gambling needs, and other negative things that's related with it, most likely you'll just end up sabotaging your growth. However, if you just so happens to be dependent on it but has the means to actually control your urges, then you're not a hopeless case.

Proper diagnosis, intervention, and treatment are all they need to regain their whole life back. Because if you are addicted, whether you like it or not, there are really certain aspects of your life that will be impacted by it. If you can prevent and minimize it, the better it is for you.

This is because free spins and faucets are mostly being abused. That is why a lot of casinos do not offer them without really a catch. If they are offering free spins, the winnings are most likely of low value and you really have to wager a certain amount first in order to withdraw your winnings. Because of course, casinos aren't charity institutions to give free money.

Free spins are now just some sort of additional means to test your luck but you couldn't really rely on it so just don't set your hopes up so much.

Money indeed could either bring the best or worst in someone.

It just depends on the person himself on how he would let the money affect his attitude and behavior to the people surrounding him. For an instance, if a man won a lottery, he could either be humble or be boastful depending on his upbringing and his perception in general. Some people tend to be a giver when they have money. While some people tend to be greedy when they have money. It's a matter of morals actually.

Money can do so many things as well. It's really a tool a people can use to improve himself and do good things or the other way around.

In sports betting, you really have to be knowledgeable about the sports itself such as its rules because you need to know how it is played to fully make your bets worthwhile. Knowing the team history is essential because you will base on their track record on their past performances the bet you will make. Reputation and winning probability are crucial. Meanwhile, in usual casino or online gambling websites, you also have to e knowledgeable about the strategies, but always remember that the house's edge is greater than the rtp. So luck will also play a great role in winning online gambling bets.

Regarding lottery, this is purely luck-based. You can't have use any strategy to win. You just have to make more bets to have a higher chance on winning and pray that the odds will be on your favor. Among all of the aforementioned gambling ways, lottery will be the least probability of you winning. Sports betting gives you the greater chance in my opinion because it is more on your fundamental knowledge and strategy on betting, while onling gambling is the second better choice because you can also win by giving your best shot and having luck on your side.

if the whole wide world gets destroyed, the air and the whole surroundings are contaminated of radiations and other chemical that came from the blasts. what's the point of Bitcoin and other currency. For sure if there are stores that survives the nuclear war, it will be stolen by people and the owner of it can't stop those hungry people from getting the food. Survivors would be back to the traditional way of getting food, building houses, making fire, and other survival skills that are needed.

Any type of currency or even Bitcoin will be forgotten for some time before people would start to use it again if we are going to survive the nuclear war if it ever happens in the future (let's hope not).

I am disappointed in fiat because of inflation, its value is not that great, especially if you're in a third world country. Bitcoin is much more different than fiat, it has more value, convenient to have, easily stored, could be access anywhere, anytime, and not easy to stole unlike fiat. Fiat doesn't have volatility like Bitcoin, I mean it doesn't have any bullish season, it's stable and prone to inflation. Storing your fiat in Bitcoin is much better than storing it in bank, because nothing will happen if you keep it in your bank account while still doubting bitcoin.

Bitcoin is good for beginners, because it doesn't require so much research before you could risk your funds on it, while altcoins is the other way around, that requires a lot of research before you should buy to avoid bagging shitcoins in your wallet. Bitcoin is the safest coin for me, the most reassuring coin that exist in the cryptocurrency market (my opinion only). I also like the volatility of it which gives you decent profits in the long run.

Altcoins are good as well if you got your research right and the developer didn't sugarcoat their goals in the long term, cheaper than bitcoin and good profit also in either short term or in the long run.

Bearish market ain't over yet, that's why the whole market are flooded with red candles. Hurrying won't do anything good, you're just gonna give a lot of stress to yourself. Bull market will come, that's for sure, it's all about perseverance and a lot of patient on waiting, if you got bored and did panic sell, you lose, simple as that. If you're a hodler and does have plenty of funds, this is a good opportunity of buying dips to be profitable in long term.

If the platform is your only choice, I think you need to change your policy, like payment first or must need a middle man before sending your bitcoin to the buyer to avoid being scammed. The platform must have some kind of ratings so that sellers could be easily identified as a legit sellers by the buyers, though scammers don't really care about sellers if they are legit or not since they only want to get bitcoin for free.

The other option you could have is peer to peer, but only sell to people who you know or your friends personally knows to avoid worst case scenario.
