10941  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin help poor countries? on: November 02, 2016, 01:44:14 PM
Yes, is even evidence in countries like Venezuela, Brazil, Argentina and Nigeria, it helps in remittance payment, against Government  regulation  (Uber in Argentina) and again as a save haven when the local currency take a dive against dollar.
Bitcoin and its related business created a whole new economy for the third world countries and most of them are reaping the rewards,if you are the lucky one's who started mining well before they could have managed to live a good life style by now and they could have developed mining as a whole new business.
How I wish we are one of the people who made a good profit in mining, and how I wish we could see the future so we have started mining before. Let's face the present situation, and we are discussing here whether it can help the poor countries because I believe the early adopters are coming from the rich countries.

That is not necessarily so. Thanks to the Internet news are spreading fast nowadays and although I haven't used that opportunity I did know about Bitcoin when the price of it was around $5. I'm pretty sure, at least I read about it somewhere, that some people from the poor countries were among the early adopters. But I agree with you that most early adopters were from the rich countries, because if you are poor even knowing that there is a thing with a great potential in the future which costs only $5 now you can't buy it because you don't have a spare 5 dollars.

I'm glad that most of the replies in this thread are like "do not invest in cloud mining" or "all cloud mining sites are scam". I'm absolutely agree with most of the replies here because I have never heard from a real person that investing in cloudmining was profitable for them.

In most cases after investing in cloudmining you will get only 60% of your money back, and in some cases you will get nothing at all losing all you have invested.

For me, I recommend gambling site: www.primedice.com.
But, I suggest to play what you can afford to lose. And,
I also suggest to trade altcoins some of your btc, surely
you will earn profit. Unlike in playing in gambling you might
gonna lose. Though playing in gambling is a luck only, anyway
goodluck, I pray youll win in gambling.

I agree that primedice is a fair site, no doubt about that but I wouldn't suggest to anyone to gamble in order to increase your money. Gambling is fun but it's no work were you can earn something. So yeah, gamble only with what you can afford to lose. And I wouldn't be so sure that trading altcoins will make you profit, IMO it's as risky as gambling.

That's true, but it's impossible in practice IMO. Nothing which is important can be hidden from public nowadays. There is always this inside guy who becomes sick of lying eventually and then he/she tells the truth to the world. So, no, elections in such a big country as the United States can't be rigged nowadays.

Impossible? In many states you don't even need to present id to vote, and dead people voting are not uncommon.

Whistleblowers can simply be ignored by mainstream media, or discredited as unreliable sources. Even if they presented hard evidence, it could be dismissed as 'small scale' fraud with no impact on final results.

But maybe because it was "'small scale' fraud with no impact on final results"? I mean in case if it wasn't we all would know about that. Yes, I undersatnd that it's impossible to arrange an absolutely fair elections and the evidences we have prove that, but I also think that all those frauds have no impact on final results.

The news that a parliamentary member in ukraine having a total 465 BTC is awesome ,but i was searching about the details regarding Alexei Mushak and i could not find a single photo or detail regarding him in the internet,is this a real news or just a hoax

No, it's not a hoax. Alexei Mushak is a real person. He is the deputy of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine ( literally Supreme Council of Ukraine).
And here's the information about him on their official site:

10946  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin is Becoming a Global Currency on: November 02, 2016, 10:53:00 AM
It's possible.. but someone must represent bitcoin and introduce it to the world and it would be a very hard job because there would be a lot of discussions, questions that needs to be answered and in the end all countries will decide if they're going to accept bitcoin as the world/global currency. I enjoyed bitcoin a lot for as long as I'm profiting money from it then that would be fine for me. Cheesy
We will go down to the lowest level in the community as we are only limited to transacting online. Do not expect that we can make all people adopt with bitcoin because only those who are educated with crypto currency will understand about bitcoin. Despite of the limited users, we can still call it as a global currency since it was accepted globally.

I don't think it is necessary to be educated with crypto currency to accept Bitcoin. What percentage of the people who are using computers have an idea how they really work? I think it would be less than 1%. So it is enough to be convenient to use for most people to be used by them. Bitcoin is definitely becoming a Global Currency whether anybody wants it or not.
10947  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Do you think the elections are rigged? on: November 02, 2016, 10:27:00 AM
The reason why so many people think the elections are rigged is because Donald Trump said so himself. As a Trump supporter, I don't believe that the entire system is rigged, although there is obvious voter fraud out there in certain states. It would be extremely difficult to rig the presidential election in all 50 states, since every individual state is like a separate election. All I am hoping for is a fair election, and for this reason, we need poll watchers to make sure there isn't any fraud.

You only need the rigging in one or two key states.

That's true, but it's impossible in practice IMO. Nothing which is important can be hidden from public nowadays. There is always this inside guy who becomes sick of lying eventually and then he/she tells the truth to the world. So, no, elections in such a big country as the United States can't be rigged nowadays.

bitcoin has afftected my life a lot not only positively but also negetively.thats because there was a time when i use to walk run and even jump like a monkey with friends and all the outdoor stuffs but after getting involve in this bitcoin thing i am spending most of my time either coding or learning new programming languages or earnin btcs for somewhere . should i lower spending my time in internet or not and is there anyone who is facing this type of addiction here

If you ask me I think the changes in your life are good ones. If you are older than 18 then it was the time to stop "jump like a monkey with friends" and to start doing some serious stuff. But of course you should spend some time outdoors every day. My rule is no more than 10 hours behind the computer daily and at least 2 hours outdoors. It's not like I'm always following the rule, but I'm trying to.

10950  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: High bet amounts or low bet amounts? What is your style? on: November 01, 2016, 11:03:02 AM
I wonder if you just play for the fun with small amounts or if you roll big sums in hope to win a lot? What is your method?

Low bet amounts but with very small winning chance are my favorite. Thus you can win up to $50 risking almost nothing. I have witnessed once that a player, not me, won 1 BTC betiing just couple of cents. It's possible when your winning chance is 0.01%.
10951  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Mosul on: November 01, 2016, 10:32:20 AM

But where is it exactly? Did they take Mosul? I don't think so. You know it would be very helpful if they provided a map with a dot on it showing where it was filmed because otherwise the video means almost nothing.
10952  Economy / Economics / Re: Soo, I'm planning on buying €1000 in bitcoins. Yes or no? on: November 01, 2016, 10:19:22 AM
Yes  €1000 is a lot of money, for me at least, but if you can afford it you should buy those BTCs as soon as possible. I'm not saying that you will profit big time soon, but if also you can afford to wait several years you might profit big, yes.
10953  Economy / Games and rounds / Re: Happy Halloween! We're giving you the chance to win spooktacular bitcoin prizes! on: November 01, 2016, 10:15:27 AM
I didn't win anything and don't see other people here brag that they won something. Are there anyway any prices I hope  at least to see someone win.


Same here. I only heard the spooky sound and nothing more. They are showing the addresses to where prizes were transfered but I'd like to see the winners here, only then I'll believe someone can actually win on the site.
10954  Economy / Gambling / Re: I tried my luck again in yobit dice game..But ended to lose on: November 01, 2016, 10:07:53 AM
Dice game on Yobit is defifnitely not the place where you should play dice. First they have 2% house edge which is big compared to other dice sites. Second, you don't have much options there, only OVER 51 or BELOW 49. And the last but not least, it is not provably fair as was already stated above.

But nevertheless I do like from time to time to take some free altcoins on Yobit and to gamble with them on their dice. Yeah, I know it's a waste of time because you mostly get fractions of coins which are already small fractions of cent, but still it is fun you know. )
10955  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Starting BTC Casino (open for suggestions & proposals) on: November 01, 2016, 09:41:29 AM
Now. My idea was to start off with few games i feel should be most important and i see most often in bitcoin casinos. Roulette, Blackjack, Dice and Wheel of fortune. Roulette is still under development, hopefully i will finish it soon while i already have other games ready.

Of course games offer will expand to slots and hopefully one day multiplayer poker.

Now my question is: Why would you come to play in my casino rather than in some other? Is that cashback, welcome bonuses, loyalty rewards, provably fair games or anything else just name it here.

For example i usually hate bonuses (except in bookmakers where i use them for arbitrage lol) but i like loyalty rewards.

Feel free to throw any suggestion or even business proposal Smiley



People tend to avoid not provably fair games nowadays so it goes without saying that games on your site should be provably fair if you want someone to play there.

I personally think that a good strategy when opening an online gambling site is providing it with a faucet which is bigger than on other sites. Doing so you will definitely attract many people to your site, but of course you wll lose some money at first. Then, when you think that you already have enough daily visitors you can reduce the amount which can be claimed. This is not my invention btw, I've seen some prosperous gambling sites were starting that way.
10956  Other / Politics & Society / Re: [P2P] Michael Moore in Trumpland (Movie) on: November 01, 2016, 09:03:11 AM
I have seen parts of this movie and I'm still not sure if it's a Pro-Trump or Anti-Trump film. Michael Moore is an open Hillary Clinton supporter, but has openly stated that he thinks Donald Trump will win this election. In the film, he even compliments Trump and thinks what he has done is amazing and historical. He also stated that Trump has more support than what the polls are saying, and that we might be in for a shock come election day.

I think when Michael Moore is saying about Trump that "what he has done is amazing and historical" he's saying it with sarcasm. Have you seen his other movies like Fahrenheit 9/11 or Bowling for Columbine for example? Using sarcasm  is just his style, he's always doing it.

Moore publicly announced his support for Bernie Sanders in the upcoming 2016 United States presidential election so it's very unlikely he'd be sympathizing to Trump.
10957  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: This School Accepts Bitcoin ! on: November 01, 2016, 07:31:45 AM
Interesting, but I doubt many people from the Western World are studying in India. It's not very reputed.
It doesn't matter. India soon will be Bitcoin super power along with the China. For example: recently Zee News one of the largest Indian news networks presented show about bitcoin.
They hinted that Bitcoin has potential to reach $10k soon. Cryptocurrency is becoming very popular form of investment in India and it is only a beginning.

Article about Zee News featuring Bitcoin: https://cointelegraph.com/news/largest-indian-news-network-bitcoin-will-reach-us10000

That's interesting because I also think that Bitcoin has that potential. Although I don't think it will happen soon I'm almost sure that in 5 years or so it is pretty much possible.

India is a great and underestimated country in the Western world because we mostly have the pictures from the poorest regions on this country.
10958  Economy / Economics / Re: Why have Bitcoin instead of cash? on: October 30, 2016, 06:41:00 PM
I may say the big advantage of having bitcoin agaisnt the cash, is the huge possibility that our bitcoins be worthing much more on the other day, besides the low cost transactions, and plenty control of our money.

I agree with what you've said but all those advantages are worthless without wider Bitcoin acception. In the future I'm sure people will be using Bitcoin and maybe some other cryptoes because of all you've mentioned but for now using cash in almost all the cases is what we can do.
10959  Economy / Gambling / Re: KingDice.com - Innovative & Realistic Bitcoin Dice Casino on: October 30, 2016, 06:29:16 PM
I like this site more and more. The addititon of the ROLL OVER button and the option to switch off the animation made it even better. Also the opportunity to claim the faucet every 20 seconds makes it exceptional among the gambling sites with a faucet.
10960  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Precious metals are not useful in a collapse scenario! on: October 30, 2016, 10:32:15 AM
It seems you don't understand a shit about precious metals.



See how small bitcoin is comparing to gold market? It is like a tiny sand particle on earth. I am not saying bitcoin doesn't have a future but  nothing can destroy precious metals. It is the ultimate safest choice.

Period.

You are right but only partly right. As we all know the Market Cap depends on the price of Bitcoin and on the price of precious metals. If the price of Bitcoin will go up in the future faster than the prices of precious metals the situation might change a lot.
