It is only $250 away, that could be easily done in a day or 3 once it decides to move.

and it's hard to predict when that will happen.

"Easily" as you says? LOL.

A normal manipulation can increased the price for up $100 rally, at least an average of that range.

The chain effect of it will be the one who will extend that price rally.

So all in all top achieve that large rally it will depends on the effect that manipulators will start.

What is the advantage (or benefits) of a buyer when they purchased a 6 year old facebook account?

Cleveland Cavaliers - 75 Golden State Warriors - 76 - End of Third Quarter

High scoring game for both teams made in 3rd; 33 for Cavs and 27 for Warriors.

GSW managed to get close from a 11-0 run of CAVS.

Whew this is really a close game match. If this will continue to the last phase of the game, those bettors for Cavs +5 points likely will win.

Most of us take this as an investment because of the continuous rising of the price itself, we tend to keep it and at the same time help it to grow. There are some online shops that accepts bitcoin as payment but the problem is, it is not available to all country.

Well that is really the real score in bitcoin that's why people treating this as investment, because of profits that they can achieved especially when there is a price rally.

That is the big bonus in bitcoin while at the same time, using it like other currency.

If you are a BTC lover, would you one day like to get your paycheck 100% in BTC?

Personally I won't. Because many facilities in my area doesn't support BTC payment. Smiley I do not mind receiving, say, 20% of my pay in BTC denomination.
As for my opinion, I prefer the BTC for my wages. I can increase the price of BTC. because when you accept your cash. cash really no hope rising. I'm right? but it just depends on the situation.

Cash/wages are meant for covering your daily regular spendings. Bitcoin in most of the cases should just be intact with exchanges to take advantages of the price fluctuations.

If in my case, I will accept bitcon instead of cash as my salary then that will just give me a doubt if I have to use it or not to support my daily needs since I care for the bitcoin price.

Just consider the bitcoin as a currency, so just like other currencies you will use your bitcoins on your daily needs whenever you need them and have to save your bitcoins if you feel now you have completed your needs and have to save.

Disagree. Im treating bitcoin more as an investment compare from being currency so spending them for daily needs will really have a hard time for me to decide.

But you know, if only most of the people will treat this as a currency then maybe I will go the flow but for now Im treating this as investment to make profits.

Cleveland Cavaliers - 42 Golden State Warriors - 49

Low scoring ball game at the half.

This kind of score makes me think harder to do live betting about Points U/O.
11127  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Best online wallet on: June 19, 2016, 11:19:33 AM
Well, I think the best online wallet is probably Blockchain.info at the moment, because all the others give you no control over your own private keys. Or you could try bitaddress.org, but that's not really a wallet.

I suggest not using Xapo... You need to get phone verified just to send coins xD

XAPO is an exchange so it's reasonable for them to ask about phone verification. Part also of a security.

Coinbase and Coinsbank also has the same feature which is common for bitcoin exchanges.
11128  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016 NBA Finals on: June 19, 2016, 11:12:34 AM
Hmm kinda weird in some of the sportsbook. They are offering a high spread (at least in my point of view of +5 points) for the Cleveland Cavaliers after their monstrous performance in their last couple games.

Maybe they are expecting a comeback for GSW but still +5 is a big spread for CAVS after their performance in last 2 games.

So for those who are betting for CAVS moneyline, better go for CAVS + points although odds are much lower compare to ML.
11129  Other / Archival / Re: Should we sell btc? on: June 19, 2016, 11:03:30 AM
Well IMO you should sell now but not all of your holded btc. Maybe just secure a profit for yourself so that you won't regret if it's price suddenly falls.

If you sell your bitcoin right now with the price of $750 because your afraid when its price fall, how come if the price rise more and break $800 to $1000 before July. So that is a big regret of selling bitcoin instead of holding it and wait until it reach its highest value.

I see no wrong if a person will sold to take profits. We don't what is the price when they buy those coins. And besides if they think that the price will still on a surge in the future then they can buy again at any price rate.

Also sometimes price experience dips like what happen days ago before going into a slight correctional range. Smiley
11130  Economy / Speculation / Re: bitcoin continuous rising? on: June 19, 2016, 10:50:19 AM
I think the bitcoin price will continue to rising even after the next halving , and that's in fact good for the Bitcoin's holders .
No it wont last till next halving event. When halving ends thats the time price will get stabilize as the hype we feel will also appear.

Don't think of next halving, try to grab each and every opportunity to collect profits from this halving, and price will keep on moving up now till we reach to the halving.

yeah, this halving is enough for getting profit from price increase, we have to buy now as much as possible to get the halving profit and for the next time i will like the stability for the price of bitcoin so that everyone adopt it for normal use without any fear of volatility.

No. Halving speculations just started when manipulators insert more amount of money in bitcoin that really surge the price up. They are the one who started the trend and halving is just the chain effect of it.

Without their moves there's no such thing as strong beliefs today that this is because of halving itself "alone" why the price increase.
11131  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin or gold? on: June 19, 2016, 10:48:00 AM
I would definitely prefer bitcoin instead of gold because it is so easy to use. For gold, you have to trust that somebody is giving you the right weight of gold, right purity, and all sorts of things like that.

With bitcoin, every unit is the same. You can transfer it without hassles virtually.

With the current rise in the price of btc, everyone will prefer Bitcoins over the gold. But still gold has the reputation and trust from the years so people prefer gold. Bitcoins will take some more time to gain the trust and to became popular; I think its has been already started if you look at the current value of the Bitcoins.

Bitcoin even if become popular is useless for those people who can't use bitcoin 100%. Geographical locations, internet access and bitcoin legality.

Gold can cover that hole and can physically be use anytime anywhere.

Also gold is not meant for short term earning purposes and that thing can be covered by bitcoin.
11132  Other / Off-topic / Re: Do you actively spend your bitcoins? on: June 19, 2016, 10:38:21 AM
Definitely do. I invest my bitcoin and spend it sometimes on gift card purchases online. However, I don't spend it in real life simply because there is a lack of vendors in real life.

Would like to see more physical vendors accepting BTC in future.

Converting is the solution since it's just the same as doing payment in bitcoin to some physical stores that accepts bitcoin.

Actually many merchants will open of adding bitcoin as one of their payment method if most of the coins are used in the market. Right now the role of bitcoin in most of the cases is investment.
Its true that many merchants are now opening to add bitcoin as a way of payment what that is recent is the steam community and I hope league of legends shop will adopt too or Garena store.

Are you from Philippines (or I think it will work too outside the country) ? If yes you may use coins.ph exchange. It offers a service where you can use your bitcoin to purchase Garena Shells.

No additional rate. 1:1. Better check it out.

for me the current job has its advantages against bitcoin.Do your job ,and see at bitcoin an option to get an extra if you wanna try a living from it be sure you need to pay bills all months and cant depend the market up and down to make it happen.

This is what Im talking about why earning a living with bitcoin is not really fits for most of the people, at least in me.

Since you will disregard the bicoin price here, you have to do a bitcoin conversion to fiat in regular intervals to cover your expenses daily, bills monthly and also with your misc expenses.

We are just throwing away some nice profits with the activity like that.
11135  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is Holding Bitcoin a long time good way to make money? on: June 19, 2016, 09:19:55 AM
I think holding for a long time it could be a good way to make money.
but you have to hold large amounts, because you will hold for a long time, so when the time to sell you are not in vain to sell in large quantities. also price of bitcoin unexpected annually, and most importantly, have patience.

Yes for those person who wants to do holding for a long term purposes, they should always add the quantity of their coins to also increase it's value.

Also you can feel the profits of holding when the price surges if you really has a decent amount of coins on the possession.

But just remember that price didn't always went to the way you want so keep on monitoring the prices rather than just save it and make don't mind with it for a long period of time.
11136  Economy / Economics / Re: How good are you at managing your money on: June 19, 2016, 09:08:12 AM
I'd rate myself as OK with managing my own money. However sometimes I become really stupid somehow and just gamble away my bitcoins, or loan it out to a really obvious scammer.

So yeah, some room for improvement but overall it's alright.

Honestly we will just learn to start the proper management of the money after doing those stupid things (whatever it is..) because we now have an experienced of losing such money.

Also every bad experienced make us more improved person when doing the proper way of managing our money.

11138  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin or gold? on: June 19, 2016, 08:19:26 AM
Gold has many things bitcoin don't have
- It's been worthy for millenniums, bitcoin not
- It holds value by 100% of the world, bitcoin not (yet)

So yes it's an easy choice. Gold!
I think if you look at it from age. gold is certainly more experienced. because gold has been there since time immemorial. The new bitcoin grows. but I'm sure bitcoin will speak volumes in the coming years
bitcoin is like a baby the growing will be fast than other currency, after 20years old bitcoin can be a young in cryptocrrency world and im sure the price will be stable in high price maybe $10k

Bitcoin price stability will just make traders get some frequent profits since it's now on stable price mode. An active price fluctuations is the reason why people earns a lot in trading bitcoin.

And that price fluctuations that happen in bitcoin can be done intentionally by those manipulators. So a crashed is always possible and really has a chance to happen for a long term which is likely different to the system of pricing in gold.
11139  Other / Off-topic / Re: What is your plan to get rich with Bitcoin? on: June 19, 2016, 07:48:38 AM
I believe that simply holding bitcoin can make a lot of people rich - if they have the patience and a large capital to start with. However, a lot of people get scared just because the price is bottoming.

Have patience in BTC and you'll be rewarded.

Can you give me an idea how much money should a person owns before to be consider as rich?

Please keep in mind that becoming rich can't be take it to a "simple" method like "simply holding" like you stated.
11140  Economy / Economics / Re: How to save money. on: June 19, 2016, 07:33:34 AM
Well, I really don't think that it is a good idea to save money in something like fiat currencies. They depreciate over time, and even if you put your money inside a bank you're just scammed under the fractional reserve system.

Save your money under bitcoin instead, it is a great store of value.

Your last statement will also experience the first one you stated.

Putting or saving money in fiat or virtual currency goes into only one road and that is the road of price fluctuations.

If you put something in any of the currency even it's for saving purposes, it's value will changed as time goes by.
