I don't agree that earning Bitcoins is easy. Unles yo country few satoshies from faucets. You need lot of time, effort and knowledge to earn decent amount of Bitcoins. Bitcoin is already accepted like money by it's users although isn't formaly regulated like this. At least not in many coutries. Hope that in the future will be fuly accepted like money in the whole world.
Yes, I agreed on you. getting profit in this industry especially bitcoin wasn't easy to gain it. It needs an effort, hardwork, and strong determination.  Though, explaining bitcoin to others was not that easy to make it simple. And still in some other country bitcoin was not popular yet.

If we have skills, ad knowledge on where is the platform that offers Bitcoin for different task then I can say, earning Bitcoin is easy since we have the skills that qualifies for the job and there is a platform mediating for employees and employer.  All we need to do is to apply and give an effort on searching for the possible job that fitted us.

What you said it's perfectly correct, we don't use our real money to play gambling because in gambling no one can make money easily. And when we are in work stress if we play few minutes it will give relief to our mind. And the profit is a bonus for your investment. In gambling, we must expect only one thing it's fun. You will get this whether you lose or win in gambling.

You are either getting profit from gambling or not getting anything from it. If you dont have any plan on getting profit then there is no point to play, it is much better to not lose anything at all. Some people only gamble for fun when there is a whole lot of other fun thing that they could do and even not lose any money

Lol can't you comprehend what you qouted have said?  He said that it relieves him of stress whenever he gamble since he look at it as entertainment.  So now tell me, is it no point in playing if the game relieve you of your stress?  And do not generalize people, they have their own interest.  One can find fun in just playing basketball while others in playing playstation.

It helps in understanding the odds and mathematics of the games..

Is that how great the gambling helps your entire life?
Anyway for me, it just help to unwind stresses in life, like having fun on playing, not much into regret, and not making myself addicted to it if I know that I gave too much money into it.

Gambling is a good way to relieve stress.  the entertainment it gives makes us forget all the pressure and tension our work gave us.  It also make us more productive in works because working refreshed enable us to function well.
1165  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is 1000 btc Possible on: March 04, 2017, 11:49:38 PM
in trading, gaining 100 BTC it would be very difficult especially get 1000 BTC. but, it is not impossible if you're great at playing trading. You probably could not produce it in a short time, but if it is 100 BTC, maybe you can get it within 5 years or more if you have lots of money, and always lucky.  Grin
For expert traders it is not any difficult to earn 100 bitcoins or a thousands but they will need to invest a highest amount at first as starting with lowest amount will not make that much profit in shorter time but it will take years to get a hundred. All it require an expert trader with high capital for to invest to take the start.

100 btc or 1000 btc is possible to earn in trading only if you have huge capital to invest and you cannot expect to earn that amount by investing a smaller capital but if you invest high then risk will be also high but profits would be even higher and not all can afford to invest that huge capital or take that high level of risk but if you manage to do that then 1000 btc profits is definitely possible in trading.

In trading there is always a ratio between initial fund and time, if you want to accumulate a certain number of Bitcoin.  Having a smaller fund does not remove you from the possible participant to collect 1000 BTC, it only needs more time than those who have a bigger fundings.
1166  Economy / Speculation / Re: I have a headache when I see the price of bitcoin on: March 02, 2017, 11:41:58 PM
As usual, buy and hold is the best overall strategy.

It is not the best but it is the most conservative type of strategy.  For me trading is still the best, it multiplies your Bitcoin before you knew it.  Though it really needs talent, skill and hard research.



I feel you man, though I know Bitcoin will reach this high, I do not have enough money to get more Bitcoin. But well let us be happy for others who have hold their BTC until now Smiley
1167  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can gambling be profitable in long term ? on: March 02, 2017, 11:22:54 PM
Gambling can gave a profit without risking money on it. We just need to invest on right side and you will never lose at the end. Investing on casino is a good gambling considering that all casino is always the winner at the long run. Gambling can be a nice way to have a profit. Just be wise on choosing the winner side.

Funny how you said not risking money, but investing your money in a Casino bankroll is a risk itself.  Though it maybe, not the same risk if you gamble it in the Casino due to the higher chance of winning because of the house edge, you are still risking your money here.  But of course, if house will win in the long run, your investment in the house bankroll will have the same fate.
1168  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What Is Your Worst Moment in Gambling? on: March 02, 2017, 10:50:49 PM
I guess I will have the worst luck in gambling in the whole world. I had 500$ which became 0$ in just 7 days all thankd to sports betting.
What exactly happened makes me sometimes laugh but I lost 7 bets in a row which had odds between 1.04-1.30.
After this there was more because of lagging issues in my old phone I was playing blackjack and got a queen so I decided to hit and it called hit twice and the bet was worth 50$ and the other person had 19 and I had 20 if it didn't hit again.

That sux, it is really annoying when internet lag or gadget freeze hit us.  Lucky I do not play much gambling. I have no worst moment so far but I will put it here wheneve I got my story.  Hopefully if you have worst moment, just do not get frustrated.  You will lose double times that way.
1169  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: In what situation would Bitcoin die? on: March 02, 2017, 10:01:29 PM

I think Bitcoin will dead if every country decides to ban Bitcoin permanently. Then, there will be no more people using Bitcoin because they might be arrested in this condition. And bitcoin can also be dead if there are a new cryptocurrency which is more profitable, more advance and can fix most of the bug of bitcoin. In the future, there will be more cryptos qualifying these facors.

Banning Bitcoin won't kill it inmy opinion.  It maybe supressed but it will not die, there will always be someone using it even if the government start tracking down users. 
The only thing that I think will kill bitcoin is when the demand dies out.  No one will support a network that will not incentivise a person.
i do not think that any country is going to banned bitcoin, and if a country has already banned bitcoin then they will very soon left the bane because bitcoin is the need of the day and very soon people are going to adopt bitcoin not only as online currency.

There is already countries that banned bitcoin.  I think it is still banned in that country until now.  Though I agree that banning Bitcoin will suppressed the users but it won't kill Bitcoin.  the best would be tracking and shutting down miners to make the transaction confirmation stop.  And all those who transact with it get an unsolved problem and look for alternative.
1170  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin without Altcoin ? on: March 02, 2017, 04:10:25 AM
then there would be no competition and bitcoin's demand will be not as much as now we have because, people trade with altcoin and they use bitcoin a s a medium of currency for buying and selling so altcoin plays a good role in bitcoin's lifecycle.
Yes, that's what I thought too, altcoins play an important role in bitcoin's existence and the other way around, they support each other and especially for bitcoin, altcoins help stimulate the growth of bitcoin as they make bitcoin more valuable and bring it up high. Altcoins are like keystone species, whose absence has devastating effects on the ecology. Without them, bitcoin would stand alone and have no specific growth as it has no competitors.
That is exactly what the point is Altcoins or Alternative Coins are not even what I call as "Alternative" because as of now Bitcoin is the only cryptocurrency that is being use or being accepted in businesses. Altcoins right now are just being use just to be traded from one to another. Other altcoins such as Doge Coin and Ethereum comes only to 2nd too Bitcoin in terms of being accepted, and as far as I know gambling sites are the only ones accepting them. Hoping for the next Bitcoin might be hard because Bitcoin's growth has not yet reach its peak.

Lol do you know what you really are talking about?  Competition takes away user from each competing coins.  It is like talking about a community with one shop and another scenario of having two shop that offers  same service.  Just think of these scenario and you will fully grasp the idea.  More coins means  more choice thus creating less demand to  each one of these coins.
1171  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin without Altcoin ? on: February 28, 2017, 11:46:15 PM
All the altcoins come and go but they have all in a way promoted bitcoins. However, bitcoin has been independent compared to the other coins and people who have invested in dogecoin and other coins and switching back to BTC considering that it is more popular and worth buying.

An article: http://bravenewcoin.com/news/bitcoins-value-altcoins/
The link is giving the how the altcoin is important in this industry. though Bitcoin is the reason why atlcoin created they are both helping to one another I think. Smiley

I think the article is just a person's view regarding Bitcoin and altcoin relationship and does not cover everyones view.  On top of it aside from the positive effect there are also negative effect this altcoins to Bitcoin.  Lots of altcoins had been labeled scam making several investors hate cryptocurrency and considered Bitcoin as one of them.  In my opinion Bitcoin can stand alone even without these altcoin.
1172  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why would banks use a blockchain? on: February 27, 2017, 09:54:41 PM
I think if the banks will be allowed by the governments then they will be allowed to use blochchain and then they will start to create their wallets and will accept bitcoin for their use etc. If they will collect enough data for themselves and will be satisfied with it then I do not think that they will need to show their transactions or the transactions of their clients to other people so they may tr to hide or if everything was the same as now then they will not be able to hide bitcoin transactions with them of their clients.
There's no point for the banks to create a wallet and to start accepting bitcoin. Banks have their own group of curencies they accept, they keep the accounts in those currencies. They don't need a new currency at all.
What would be the blockchain technology good for them? If you want to send a transaction intrabank, it's usually done in a second, and it's usually free with the banks' current systems. If you want to send a transaction in the same country but using different banks in the same currency, nowdays it's just max. an hour to complete. If you want to send a transaction in different currency, that needs time (2-3 days) to arrive to the different country, to a totally different bank.
Banks need to speed up this kind of process. But, they don't need a new currency (bitcoin) for it, they just need a quicker system handling the transactions between banks. If banks could change SWIFT system to a new one, based on a closed blockchain, they would have the new and really quick, but still reliable system. The problem is solved, without bitcoin, but with blockchain technology.
Another typical solution would be the share market on exchanges. Nowdays if you want to buy shares, it clears in 2-3 days time (e.g. if you want to bus shares from overseas). If you could use a blockchain based technology for it, buying-selling shares and registering the ownership would take half an hour. It could speed up the current system. These are just a few possibilities, but there are a plenty of them.


I think there is a point for the bank to accept bitcoin, that is to ride the wave.  Banks is always updated with  what is trending in a finance industry.  They know what is profitable and which one is best to invest to.  Probably, in my opinion, some banks had already invested in Bitcoin.  They are just hiding it.



Blockchain is like a ledger so definitely bank will  use it since it will be their advantage if they do.
1173  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I never made any profits in dice game.. whats is your opinion on: February 27, 2017, 07:54:26 PM
Hi guys i just want to share my experience in gambling which is i am still playing since january but never made any profit with this game.. any other tricks settings and methods are already tried but still now never made any profits..
What you can suggest to me i will still continue to gamble in dice game with other methods or just stop gamble..Huh

when you play in the gambling site don't expect that you will earn in the games for a quick action. And Whatever trick you will use it will be useless only. In every gambling profitable is hard to gain it, So if I were you stay away from it. Or else in the end you will loss money only.

LOL, gambling is for quick profit, what are you talking about quick action?  There is a trick / method and all method are not useless, it is  the person's strategy that is useless, the reason why he lost money than gaining it.  As a matter of fact every method needs a certain kind of strategy so if the method does not fit with the strategy, then the player will more likely to lose.
1174  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you care about bonuses on btc casino ? on: February 27, 2017, 07:33:28 PM
No i do not care about bonuses, all I care about is if the Casino site is reputable and can be trusted.  Bonuses are just bait for the new player and if you claim it, and if ever you win, you will have lots of difficulty withdrawing the fund. I have read several issue about account freeze upon withdrawal and the site owner accuse the player of exploiting the bonuses LOL.
1175  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How can gambling help you with your life? on: February 25, 2017, 11:51:15 AM
I don't think that gambling will help you with your life because most experiences I've heard is their life was ruined by gambling due to profit losses. One help that gambling brings is only fun as a diversion of stress and not a profitable aspects and that if maybe winning in a lucky sweepstakes that would be an unexpected help.

Honestly if you analyze things with gambling and played moderately, it is profitable in an indirect way. You have told that gambling can be use to relieve a person from stress and relieving stress clears a person's mind.  A clear thought will be productive in terms of work activities and other stuff concerning psychological and emotional aspect.
1176  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Should Bitcoin even have a future? on: February 25, 2017, 06:36:53 AM
The gamble I am referring to is with the price increase it's like if you invest while the price is on the higher state and then suddenly is falls down that's the risk. And since you have mentioned the thing about supply, many are saying that when it already reach to the limit, the future of it will now be controlled by the whales.

Do not be mistaken about trading as a gambling.  This two have part its way, way back when we are yet born.  If you are talking about whales, they can easily be predicted since manipulating bitcoin needs a lot of fund now, they rely on news and current events even spreading FUD to make their plan come true.  So basically you have indicators that tells you if an uptrend is coming or a downtrend.  It is up to your observation and research and not by your luck.
1177  Economy / Economics / Re: What would be effect of denial from ETF on: February 25, 2017, 06:04:52 AM
Lol these bullshit numbers of 26% 35% 25% and whatever else are hilarious. They're based on ... what? Random statistics that may not be relevant?

The actual affect if it's declined would be a sharp decline, a correction and we'll stay around the $1000 mark.

this is what I am thinking too, since the current increase is all about the hype of the upcoming ETF.  Actually, there is no reason for BTC to go up in price since there had been several problem with the transaction confirmation and there is nothing to announce as development of Bitcoin yet.  So if ever the ETF is rejected, the next thing that possibly can happen is the decline of Bitcoin price.
1178  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoins Everywhere? Not yet... on: February 25, 2017, 05:57:20 AM
Most of the members consider bitcoin as major currency of future. Let us assume that it will be accomplished one day, but before that, I wonder which spheres of our everyday life will adapt bitcoin first?

As you can see the traders / investors is the first one to adopt bitcoin first.  The technology sector were the late one to adopt it since they are hessitant about it and think of Bitcoin as Ponzi scheme since the first one will sell their holding to the new investor in an inflated price.  I have talked to all my programmer/IT friends and all of them have the same insight about BTC whenever they see the world "highly volatile.
1179  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin as Main Currency on: February 25, 2017, 05:44:08 AM
I strongly agree that in the future bitcoin could be serve as the primary virtual currency that is used throughout the world. The user bitcoin is very much. development and growth also increased rapidly in many sectors.

I do not think bitcoin would be the primary virtual currency if the problem with its scalability is not fixed.  Ever thought about a scenario when 50% of the world population adopted bitcoin and send their transaction at the same time?  We can see people waiting for their transaction to be confirmed maybe for months.  I also think that transaction fee would be far too expensive than the fiat currency transfer if this transaction fee keep on increasing.  So I guess people will look for an alternative.
1180  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Giving up gambling is not easy on: February 25, 2017, 05:30:34 AM
Who says that giving up on gambling is really easy? NO one but if you feel that you are addicted enough lose too much you need to quit then think of your family is the best solution of quiting it will comes into your mind the "HOW IF" the money you play you gave it to them you help them and make them happier

Actually, sometimes the reason of why a family member gambles, is their family. That means they might have a problem too with dealing with their family or sometimes they do it for their living.

The best thing that I could think that we should do when we want to quit gambling is to look for something else where we can earn money. It would make us busy and it would give us money, so we don't have rason to gamble anymore. Fun isn't really the cause why we are addicted to gambling, it is just the "reason" we said.  Smiley

When we intend to quit from gambling habit it'll be very hard but I do believe that at the end something will force us to give up from this activities.

I agree that in the end something will force us to give up from gambling activity, this might be having no fund, and no one around us trust us enough to give us loan so that we have initial bankroll.  The fate of  a gambling addict actually end like this.  And this situation will continue depend on the moral of the person.  Though it would be best to have specialist to help in rehabilitation.
