Since OP has been labelled one and its possible its an alt account since he has not been online for days and in two days of him being active, quite a number of questions has been asked by him. I guessed his likes are those to be avoided. And ways to avoid one is simple never be too greedy to get something of higher value at a ridiculous lower amount. More often than not, its always scam again when you are in doubt simple ask and use escrow with those two fundamentals then you are good to go.

As a newbie myself in the world of trading in which I have got bitten too, I think the problem is not actually to create account as anyone can do that or to buy low and sell high as that is what we all wanted to achieve even the legends in trading but the issue is about the timing as well as the right stock to put money in. As this is the only difficult and the cause of failure in gambling as we are only predicting and nothing else.
3963  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading is unpredictable job. on: December 19, 2016, 10:32:38 AM
Obviously, Method, money and mind are important things that you need. Also in my opinion, you should have a strategy to face the fluctuations of bitcoin too. Buy when the price is low and sell it when the price is growing up. The unpredictable of trading enforcers you to have B plan if the price suddenly down and looking for the news of bitcoins world update.

And that is initially where I got it wrong in my first dealing in trading, not knowing when to bolt and it affected me to a great deal. I had put some money in a particular coin then it started increasing my value the went high as .16btc and I was like I wont sell it will double coupled with the assurance from my mentor unfortunately today its about 0.014 imagine the loss. Its really an unpredictable job indeed.
3964  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Are You Disappointed In Trading? on: December 19, 2016, 10:27:48 AM
Trading is something I have always want to lay my hands on because of the reputation as a source of stable income and after alot of hesitation, I eventually joined and I got bitten and disappointed and I dont think I will be going there anytime soon simply because the first coin I tried to sharpen my teeth in trading didnt really go well.

The only way to fight is simply to seek an asylum somewhere else in another country that promote your ideals then fight from there and that's how to survive and for those who can't afford to travel out, and have no where to go, just hold tight and pray a savior will show up because aside that, nothing else is really going to happen.
3966  Other / Politics & Society / Re: If nuclear war broke out where's the safest place on Earth? on: December 18, 2016, 10:16:02 PM
This is really a call for concern especially at a time where countries now test their powers based on the numbers of nuclear weapons in their arsenal but for me and quite a number of people in the world I don't think there is a place to run to we just keep hoping that someone does not get mad and start testing the fireworks as for op, I dont know how connected he is because I have watched videos of how US have buildings and locations that can withstand such attack so he could be one of the beneficiaries of such facility.
3967  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: December 18, 2016, 08:30:55 PM

Gambling is very addictive because of the fact that its an easy thing to do and you like to do it because you can win money and try it over and over because of it.

I agree with you on this because I am yet to see anything more addictive than an avenue where one can make money with little or no effort whatsoever simply that you should just risk that one you have with you and your wish could come true. It is as simple as that. If any other avenue provides that, then I tell you it will definitely be addictive.
3968  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is there a trick dice? on: December 18, 2016, 07:56:17 PM
When you look at the title of the video it says how to make 1k doges but if you watched the whole video he only made like 40 doges during the session he recorded and no one will be encourage to try this method if your video doesn't show any proof that you made 1k doge from it. Additional advice for the OP if you're making a video make sure it isn't clickbait.

I didnt even bother to watch the video because I know its going to be a waste of time and energy. Of all games in gambling dice is the last one I would think there will be a strategy that will mean all time win. It does not work that way only for a short period and thats all.
3969  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How can gambling help you with your life? on: December 18, 2016, 07:19:43 PM
Gambling Can't help in your life but investment and trading can so turn your gambling into trading and you'd be able to maximize your income and have a better life.

Gambling will actually help only in the short term and not long term but that will only happen if one is smart with it. In the sense that you play only for the fun of it and also play with what you can afford to lose with also putting out the mindset that "I will be rich from gambling".
3970  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is GAMBLING? on: December 18, 2016, 06:54:27 PM
Gambling will continue to have its way till eternity as it has been doing since time immemorial so far humans by their nature are will continue to be selfish and wanting to gain more from what they have with the risk ready to lose the little they have and thats is why its still thriving and will continue to be.
3971  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Play with your profit or not? on: December 18, 2016, 06:46:19 PM
Coming into gambling in the first place is to make some profit from the amount wagered. If that is successfully achieved, instead of going all in with my profit, I would then determine the amount of the profit I am willing to lose after I successfully lost that, I am pulling out with the rest and nothing will make me stay until later in the future I will come back and try my luck again.
3972  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: what is definition gambling in your mind? on: December 18, 2016, 07:18:44 AM
Gambling is simply an activity where I invest my money in other to increase it by a particular percentage which is my primary motive going towards that part. After all when I fail to achieve that objective, I then find someone to blame maybe my luck, or the game site or the timing among other things in other to absolve myself any fault not thinking losing is a fundamental factor that should never have been ignored.
3973  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online Gambling vs Real Gambling on: December 18, 2016, 06:59:37 AM
In online gambling, you can easily hide your identity especially in bitcoin gambling where you can just easily sign in with a vpn and no one will actually know who you are. Gambling is illegal in most part of the world therefore most people tend to hide their identity and in a real land based casino you cant do that

And thats one great advantage that online gambling offered as I can stay in the corner of my room and then play a game hosted in a far-away land that I met not get to in my lifetime but not all for online gambling because if I get scammed, then my money is gone or the site got hacked then I lost everything without anyone to report to neither anyone to sue to claim damages from which might not be so in a real gambling scenario.

https://blockchain.info/tx/fed400a10ef54d9d0c64959ba52fb32bf19b083cfa9aff7101c050aa9250fcaa
just kidding

I cant but laugh at this and even double laugh one at the OP to must have believed that someone has finally bought his/her story and fill the loan with little or no stress and two to you who have come to elate my day with the link to youtube. Mehn that is really hilarious and such should be encourage for those without legitimate reason to ask for loans.
3975  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Can Bitcoin exchange be considered as money laundering? on: December 17, 2016, 07:23:01 AM
Its really going to be dicey in other to determine whether its money laundering depending on what is the benchmark to be regarded as money laundering in each country and also the applicable law on Money laundering over here money laundering will happen if you transfer as much as $10,000 equivalent with necessary disclosure so I think this would be interpreted in the case of Bitcoin of that same value in our own jurisdiction here.

In addition to the above, over here, when they mention Money Laundering, you are not talking about any small amount of money because thats what qualifies as that in our own clime of the society. And for someone to have that kind of money, it means that individual all things being equal is not a small boy which means he wont be exposed to Bitcoin yet based on what we have on ground and government is not even aware of Bitcoin so until then if I have that kind of money, I will move it without any disturbance through Bitcoin.
3976  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What do you like best about bitcoin? on: December 17, 2016, 07:16:20 AM
If it were to be days back, I would have gone with the anonymous characteristics, but now I dont know if that will still hold for long following the current happenings in the crypto-world. Aside that, the next best thing I love about Bitcoin is the ability to transfer, earn and pay for services across the world with ease. Without having to go to the bank, low amount of transaction fees, and fast completion of transaction.
3977  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I am sorry to say, Mike Hearn was right. on: December 17, 2016, 07:11:47 AM
But come to think of it, ever since Circle made the announcement, the price of Bitcoin has been on the increase and didnt even feel the effect of someone falling out. From own way of looking at it, I think they are actually pulling out because of the coming regulations which they might not be able to handle and this also will mean more money for thier competitors or Circle is not that popular as they thought they are because the only time I have heard about this is just recently.
3978  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: if BTC is regulated, can we get prosecuted for making an exchange site or node? on: December 16, 2016, 10:35:53 PM
I have never seen any law made that does not include "offences and penalties" which is a fundamental category of the law because they know that humans by default will run foul of the laws established so for the prosecution, I dont see why government will go through the process of enacting a law and not ready for implementation. So, it is yes if BTC is regulated, every individual who did not follow laid down rules and regulations will be prosecuted.
3979  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Is it illegal for someone to hack my BTC wallet? on: December 16, 2016, 10:28:36 PM
Hackers are thief so i will consider it as illegal by the law or not.. for me it is illegal and if you are hacking an account or btc wallet it is a bad habit..
And you can be arrested by nbi if you caught.
If you are planning to hack it is not a good idea it is better to work or find a job..

Yes it is true that they are thief but that is your opinion and not general neither is it binding on anyone and moreover they dont care about your opinion of course if they do, they woudnt continue hacking but the issue is that my opinion about a thief does not bring him to book or face justice. Its the legal and if that part is not established, every other things is just a wish that cant move dust.
3980  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: WHY DO I NEED I.D. AND PROOF OF ADDRESS ?? on: December 16, 2016, 10:19:33 PM
WHY DO I NEED I.D. AND PROOF OF ADDRESS TO BUY BITCOIN ??

tried to but bitcoin at several hubs/sites
they all asked for goverment issued id and proof of address

what gives ? i thought bitcoin was anonymous ?

any suggestions ?

Being anonymous is gradually turning into a myth with current events happening from over the world especially USA with the IRS going after Coinbase Users for investigation which under the law, Coinbase is to comply by providing details of their users all else they will be the one to bear the liability and that his why all other exchange sites trading sites will want to know even your family background as a result of KYC.
