101  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: what is your plan? on: June 01, 2018, 03:20:50 AM
By plan i mean when do you plan to cash out. Is it when you have made enough to buy a car, a house maybe? or are you setting your sights higher?

Personally i'd just like to own my own home, after that i would just play with spare change.
Hopefully I can earn more than enough for me to cash out and finished my house then I will hold again to earn and save it so when it is enough I will buy a car. Well everything is still a plan but hoping for the best so that plans will be achieve.
102  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: This guy has lost 103 Bitcoins on: June 01, 2018, 01:01:40 AM
This guy has lost 103 bitcoins he mined back in 2011 and then lost his wallet dat file similar to what I have done but wow this guy must be gutted the amount of money he has lost compared to me  

His Address    166BuLPWHUjqoqiYp5rGE3B5r5AmqgHpoL    Final Balance   103.20832384 BTC

So many people have the same problem and I wonder just how much Bitcoin is stuck not being able to be used Sad

He says "I used to mine Bitcoin back in 2011 and I lost my wallet.dat file (through several stupid moves on my part). It's got approx 103 BTC in it, anyone is welcome to it, I've given up trying."






If this will happen to me it will make me crazy like lossing a 103 bitcoin , I cannot move on that easy I am very sure with that . This will be a lesson for everybody to make an extra storage for your private keys so if something happen you will have a back up to your files. Maybe that guy is now very careful and learned his/her lesson that amount was too big already and lossing it will affect a lot to him. I just hope that he is okay and move on already.
103  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: People are joking about Bitcoin on: May 31, 2018, 07:11:32 PM
In recent times, some new ICO companies have been kidding about Bitcoin on Twitter, Facebook for their ICO promotion. I think this promotion way is very negative for Bitcoin. They showed that Bitcoin will be destroyed and their token will become number one. They have presented it in such a way that the price of Bitcoin will not rise anymore. I think this type of promotion is  very negative in the market.
Let them be and let see if they can take over bitcoin popularity. Everybody had already proven how bitcoin give profit to everyone and their coin will just be started . Their are people who will really try to pull down bitcoin but they cannot destroy it that easy.  If you are bitcoin believer you will not be affected with that promotions that they are doing.
104  Economy / Economics / Re: Wise thing to do with your savings. on: May 31, 2018, 10:08:57 AM
I see that many of you actually liked the concept of 20 % method wherein you allot 20% of your earnings to be saved as emergency fund.
So I was thinking, if that 20% allotted will be invested in a time deposit kind of account, will it still be possible to earn as much or invest it in cryptocurrency? Or maybe just let the money sleep until such time you will need it?
What will be a wise kove to do with the noney you have saved up?

I think the safer thing to do with your savings is just save it. Think of it as an emergency savings. We never know what or when the emergency occurs so better have a lot or enough emergency savings. Also, having this kind of plan in your money you can prevent and avoid some negative effects in your budgets.
I agree mate what belongs to emergency is for emergency only do not touch it for investing in crypto currencies due to voalatility of currencies it might happen that what have you put in will fall down when you needed it most the value here are unpredictable that is why I agree with to keep the money safe which intended  for emergencies.
105  Economy / Economics / Re: Should we teach children to have businessman mentality or be successful employee on: May 31, 2018, 08:32:34 AM
It depends to my children if I saw them any potential to have a businessman mentality then in early stage I will help them to developed their ability, I saw lots of people being wealthy because of business compared to be an employee. When I was in my elementary my mom bought me a pack of candies so I can sell it to my classmates from that simple strategy I learned how to save money and now I am doing it also to my eldest son.
106  Economy / Economics / Re: Five common mistakes made by Bitcoin users on: May 31, 2018, 05:13:40 AM
1. Do not remember electronic wallet password
2. Do not back up your wallet
3. Do not research new services
4. Buy and sell based on feelings
5. Leave your money in the electronic money floor
These are common mistakes especially if you are newbie and I am one of the victim of these mistakes. I've once forgot my electronic password and never ever recover it again so my altcoins was still there but from that mistake I learned from it so I see to it that I copied my e-wallet password in a notebook to make it as a back up.
107  Economy / Economics / Re: I almost lost my rock solid regular job because of crypto on: May 31, 2018, 04:14:07 AM
Like the title says, i almost lost my regular job as a software developer today when my boss reviewed my work. The job has been able to economically provide a comfortable life for me and losing it would really be a big hit to my income. I almost lost it because i spent so much time learning about everything crypto (mining, trading, bounties, etc.).

Has anyone else experienced this? I just feel pretty lucky I was given another chance and want to remind other people that having a regular job is much better than relying on the volatility of cryptocurrencies. Make sure you prioritize your work!

I am glad that you just almost loss it and you still have your job mate,be thankful to your boss that he/she gives you another chance so do your job well and make sure that you can manage your time since you cannot afford to loss it. I do not experience what have you experienced cos I am just a stay at home mom but I have lots of friends who's like you but done their job well while working in crypto.
108  Economy / Economics / Re: Investment in Bitcoin vs Investment in Education? on: May 31, 2018, 02:02:06 AM
Investment in bitcoin and Investment in education are profitable in different ways. Bitcoin is good for long term investment but we cannot depend all of our needs in it so we better go to college and finished it so we can able to learn or to be knowledgeable and competence is so high in the society so with good education you can compete and get a good job. Together with bitcoin and education you can have or can get a big profit and brighter future.
109  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin and Disable person on: May 31, 2018, 01:02:57 AM
This is a common thing happens in different countries where the government mandatory give assistance to there citizens with disability, and the sad truth is that the assistance from government is not enough.

This is the perfect time to introduce bitcoin to persons with disability by doing this they don't need to rely only on government assistance, because they are now started to earn there own money to support their needs.

I agree with your idea mate, some people with disabilities will think that they were useless already because of their situation they cannot get a job and to earn money since bitcoin is a homebase it will be productive to teach them so they can work and their self esteem will gain again ,from bitcoin they can earn money.
110  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does experience matter in gambling? on: May 30, 2018, 03:44:17 PM
as I know experience is important in some gambling games such as poker, but how about the other games like dice game or roulette, do you gain any advantage from your experience, can you used your experience to win the game? or maybe because of your experience you know whether to bet low or high in dice game

So Does Experience matter to you?
It does matter, how can you start a game with out any experience of that kind of gambling right? For me gambling is 80% luck and 20% skills or experience, the two should be together because it is an advantage of the gambler. Most of the time if you are new into gambling there is what they called the beginners luck , gambling welcome you being a winner so that you will keep on coming back to play then you won't notice you become addicted to gamble.
111  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Addiction Stories! on: May 30, 2018, 01:54:47 PM
I used to gamble everyday ,morning until dawn with my friends or neighbors, at first all I want was to enjoy myself but later on even how many times I loss still I keep on coming back hoping that I can win. I've been a iresponsible mother with my son and depend my responsibilities to my parents. I onced pawned my jewelries or valuable things just because of gambling that's how addicted I am in gambling now I am thankful that I can control my addiction. Yes, I still play but it is not like before I know my priorities and I do not want to risk my family just because of gambling.
112  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When do you know its time to Stop? on: May 30, 2018, 10:26:49 AM
Before I only stop when I do not have money left in my pocket but now I stop when I observed that it is not my lucky day ,I will stop as soon as possible I do not want to keep on trying to take back what I loss just like before because I already know the more I try the more money I will loss.
113  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: how long you can stay without gambling? on: May 30, 2018, 07:53:50 AM
I've been addicted to gambling before but since my determination is so strong to stop gambling and by the help of my love ones little by little I can control my addiction. Honestly I still gamble but I already put limitation to it and I look for another ways to make my self busy or divert into something that I know well.
114  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambler's mindset! on: May 30, 2018, 05:31:48 AM
I have tried to think what goes through my mind when ever I am trying to place a bet. I think something strange do happen to me and that is I always have this thinking that what if I lose, how am I going to feel! I have never want to lose in my mind I want to win always but I think this is impossible. Gamblers here did you always want to win all your bet? If you win all how will the gambling company makes profits?
We all want to win but true that it is impossible to win always so for me it is better to stay away in gambling it is because it can ruin your life on keep on trying your luck to win. We all know/see how gambling affect other people lives so from their experience you can avoid it.
115  Economy / Speculation / Re: Remember, Bitcoin is the best Cryptocurrency to Hodl. on: May 30, 2018, 12:24:20 AM
At a time when the price of cryptocurrencies fluctuate sharply at any sign of not too good news, do not press the panic red button on your Bitcoin.
Remember the Pizza guy!
In Bitcoin I trust, come Bull or Bear.

Yeah mate, I agree with you . No need to get panic when bitcoin fall because it will go to the moon again just keep you faith intact  ,always tell your self that one of this days bitcoin will hit $20,000 or more again and your persistent of waiting will be worth it.
116  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is it too late? (To buy Bitcoin now) on: May 29, 2018, 03:05:31 PM
It is never too late to invest bitcoin because it has a big chance to double or triple your money anytime you want to invest, as long as you know how to wait. Patience is our way to success in crypto so we should have that attitude and also we should not believe what others talk about bitcoin.
117  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Do We Need To Change Bitcoin Logo ₿? on: May 29, 2018, 01:02:24 PM
Bitcoin can change our future, our way of consuming, voting, sharing, working...
But its logo is attached to symbols of the past. BTC
Why the ₿ should look like the $,€ or ¥, while Bitcoin wants to change our economic model ?

Maybe to change the system, Bitcoin have to change its Logo ?

No there is no need to change bitcoin's logo , the symbol has already printed to our minds and everyone was contented and happy to it. Some will agree to change it but for me I want to stay how it is just like others paper currencies even how many years comes it still stay the same way.
118  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin will silence its haters... on: May 28, 2018, 12:12:52 AM
we know that many people do not like the presence of Bitcoin,
Are you sure in the future people who hate Bitcoin will be silent and regret because of Bitcoin triumphs...  Grin
Those who hated bitcoin now will surely regret it why they did not believe bitcoin and they did not invest now . Bitcoin is a very good for long term investment and will give you a big profit in the long run , they will shut their mouth when they see bitcoin will recover again.
119  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling loses and wins on: May 25, 2018, 04:54:49 PM
So.... how much have you win or loss gambling ?? And what did you stake ?
I've lost about $60 so far but im planning to win it back. Pigs get fat and hogs get slaughtered.
A saying well said, however i still need to learn it since my greed is my downfall. Guys and girls
how much money have you made or lost gambling ? Any pointers or warnings ? 

My biggest loss in gambling for one day was $15 and I gamble everyday and my biggest amount of winning was $50-$100 in different kinds of gambling like tong its i won $50 in one day and in lottery when you only bet for 3 digit numbers, I won $100. The over all total if lossing is much bigger than winning.
120  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Depending your future in bitcoin... on: May 25, 2018, 04:10:17 PM
No, I won't depend my future to bitcoin I need to work hard for my family , we do not know how long bitcoin will be ( I do not want to say end because I want to last it forever ) but as long it is  there I will continue to support it. But as a human I still need something else to get a profit so as early as you can it is better to look for a good business and if you have a job never ever quit.
