Pay to click is essentially a scam business model.

Paid clicks are worthless, as businesses are
interested in real traffic, leads, and customers.

The only exception is something like youtube,
where you just want views on your video.



I don't agree fully with you.
Yes, many PTC sites are SCAM but some of them, which offer real value to both advertisers and members, are valid business model what works.
The most successful PTC business models are in business already 7-8 years and have a few million members.
I hope someone can start such successful pTC business model also for us, Bitcoin users Smiley

Do you want to say that beauty and sport can't go together?
Or that beautiful girls shouldn't play sport?


Of Course not.
Did you know that her mother asked her to be a model, but she chose Volleyball.

At least, I had a reason to watch VolleyBall.  Grin

OK, thanks for this additional info.
Any way, I think time will tell if she choose good or bad about her future carrier (volleyball or model). Smiley

Very strong statement.
If you think that illegals like just numbers, somebody who may still your job, bring criminal to your community etc. this statement can be understandable.
But, each of this people are humans, people who suffer and who took huge risk in order to come to their new countries, in order to support their families, so they should receive credits for this, not punishment.
I hope that all this people will be, soon or later, accepted in their new countries, not punished by the low and deported.

11186  Other / Off-topic / Re: Observations on prayers and miracles? on: July 29, 2014, 07:09:24 PM
It's very hard to discuss about spiritual things, prayers and miracles and God because such things it's almost impossible to prove.
But, in other way, can anybody show love?
No, because love is also invisible thing.
...but we believe in love because we can feel and sometimes we can see expression of love around us.
It's the same thing with God.
You either feel God around you, his presence, feel that through prayers you can communicate with him and receive answer (miracle) but you can't prove this.
but, in fact, it doesn't matter really because faith is personal, individual thing, just between you and God, so why loose unnecessary energy and time on useless discussions and try to prove God?
It's just wasting of time.
What is important is your personal relationship with God, and this is just between each of us and God.
Back to the question yes i believe that prayers can help in special ways based on own experience.
11187  Other / Politics & Society / Re: One Week in Islam: What is Wrong With This Faith??? on: July 29, 2014, 06:45:15 PM
I don't think that anything is wrong with Islam as faith.
Problem is with people who practice Islam in their own way, with their own interpretation of their holy book, interpretation which justify killing of innocent people.
Purpose of any religion is to teach people spirituality, bring them to God and prepare for another world, God's kingdom.
Radical Islam use from Qur'an what fit their agenda and just skip other parts. 
11188  Economy / Economics / Re: Argentina and Bitcoin - Why has there not been a switch? on: July 29, 2014, 06:28:45 PM
Those who know about bitcoin:

Because they are poor and don't have any wealth to store, and for the little savings they might have they prefer dollars, because dollars are most liquid and everyone accepts them (google the story on the last argentinian crisis from 14 years ago, it's been quite popular, this dude was telling how they managed to survive there) .
And because they can't buy anything with bitcoins domestically, thus don't see much value in them.

But I would bet most argentinians don't even have internet access to even hear about bitcoin.

Yes, I think this are very good point.
For accepting and using Bitcoin the are some pre- conditions (in my opinion) like that most homes have Internet access, regular income, understanding of English and stable society (without risk of financial collapse).
It seems Argentina is not good country for Bitcoin right now.
11189  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: bitcoin’s potential in Seoul on: July 29, 2014, 06:19:56 PM
If Bitcoin would get a hold on South Korea that would be amazing.
They have quite some purchasing power over there.

Yes, it's true, I can confirm from my own experience.
I visited Seoul and S. Korea several times and it's really amazing their technical development and specially how they implement Internet, mobile phones in everyday life, communication, trade, selling etc.
So, many of them have good purchasing power and they are already using Internet in everyday activity, so if they understand and accept Bitcoin concept, it will help growth of Bitcoin.

I think Israel won because International community allowed this by not stopping their brutal attacks and bombing every day.
In world politics is always like this, stronger countries defeat weaker and don't mind much about peace talk (in the case they are confident they can get more by force).

If I will have 30 days to live I will first try to make peace with people around me, forgive others or apologize for everything happened.
After that I will try to take care for my family, write Last Will and last but not less important will try to find inner peace in myself, by prayer, meditation etc.

Dmeter, nemas pojma o cem pricas dok ne probas nesto prodati putem PayPal-a
Neki trgovac koji prodaje milijone malih stvari, jebe sam sebi milu majku sto mora raditi preko PayPal-a te svaku nejdelju placa misu u obliznjoj crkvi i đamiji da PayPal izgori. Razlog?

Pitam te, JEL TO JEBENO NORMALNO?! PayPal je govno kakvo svijet nije vidio, i postoji samo i jedino zato jer ga je kupio Ebay. Da nije Ebay odjebo kupnju putem Skrill-a (nekad je to radilo nomalno kad je Skrill bio Moneybookers) PayPal bi bio mrtva stvar u Europi a vjerojatno i u dobrom dijelu svijeta (osim valjda Americi).

A o njihovoj "zastiti prodavaca" netreba gubiti rijeci...mrtvo slovo na papiru.
Paypal je najbolji način plačanja za kupce na svijetu.
kupim jaja u lokalnom dučanu platim ih i pred kučna vrata mi ispadnu i razbiju se i ja ostanem bez love i bez jaja a paypal
kupim jaja i na putu kuči ih ja razbijem i paypal mi vrati pare.


Paypal štiti one koje i mora a to su kupci od zlih trgovaca,jer  dobrog trgovca na svijetu ne postoji.

Kao netko tko ima stotianjk kupnji putem PayPal-a mjesecno, mogu potvrditi da ovo sigurno nije istina. Tocnije bi bilo: "Kupis jaja online, prodavac ti dostavi pokvarena / razbijena, a ti mozes dokazati da ih je on razbio a ne ti, pa dobijes lovu nazad". Od PayPal-a dobijes pare nazad samo i jedino ako se stvar osteti u transportu od strane priznatih transportnih firmi. Ukoliko u transport nije ukljucena jedna takva firma, zaboravi na seller protection. Chargeback nije PayPal-ova stvar, vec stvar karticarske kuce i on bi radio tako kako sada radi sa ili bez PayPal-a.
Vecinom ljudi imaju osjecaj "da ih stiti PayPal" sto ustvari nije istina jer kupuju preko Ebay-a. Tamo se desava da ce ti prodavac radije vratiti lovu nego da mu ti das negativnu ocjenu na ebay-u, pa opet po kupca ispadne sve dobro, tako da u 99.99% slucajeva ne radi se o zastiti od strane PayPal-a nego od zastiti od strane Ebay-a. Taj prodavac bi napravio to isto taman da si mu placao i putem Bitcoina, jer ga negativni rep kosta vise nego povrat novaca / slanje novog itema.

Ja sam osobno popusio dio novaca i kao kupac jer sam neke stvari kupovao van Ebay-a. U zadnjem slucaju se radilo o parsto dolara vrijednom plugun-u za 3D crtanje. Prodavac mi ga nikad nije poslao + ignorira bilo kakav kontakt sa moje strane, a PayPal me je odjebo kao da i ne postojim. Davao sam im username / pass od stranice na kojoj sam kupio plugin, gdje se fino vidi da mi nije plugin ni poslan, al su me tkao ljepo odjebali da je to cudo.

Sve u svemu, PayPal ovakav kakav je sada je govno. Ebay ima daleko bolju zastitu (reputacija) od PayPal-a i za kupca i za prodavaca. Da znam da je Ebay vlasnik PayPal-a, ali cinjenice su takve da bi kupac i prodavac bili sigurniji da mogu na Ebay-u platiti npr. Skrill-om, BTC-om ili bilo kojim drugin nacinom, nego ovako putem PayPal-a.

Ukratko, glavni problem sa PayPal-om je "random" funkcija kojom odredjuju kome ce vratiti pare a kome ne. Nema nikakvog fiksnog sistema koji ce ti garantirati da ako napravis a) b) i c) da ces dobiti pare nazad. Sve ovisi od jednom od tisucu "agenata" koji dobiju tvoj slucaj i o njegovoj osobnoj procjeni i mentalnom stanju u tom trenutku....vrlo profesionalno i kvalitetno....


Ne znam, moje je iskustvo sa Paypalom bilo dosta pozitivno po tom pitanju.
Nije mi isporučena zatražena digitalna usluga plaćena preklo Paypala i po njihovoj točno utvrđenoj proceduri išao sam na dispute, 2. strana nije ništa odgovorila u predviđenom roku, pa sam podigao zahtjev na claim i kad opet nije bilo odgovora 2. strane dobio sam refund svog novca automatskim, u roku 30 dana, sve čisto i jasno, čask mislim i lakše nego da sam u svojoj bancio tražio chargeback.
Paypal ima svoju proceduru i tko je poštuje dobit će svoje novce, to je moje iskustvo.

Good question LOL Smiley
I don't think that anybody need such huge amount of money for living expenses and comfortable life.
I think, I will use and spend how much money I need for my own expenses, and donate rest of amount to people in need, like Gates and some other reach man.
I think that on the end is not money what makes you happy but other things like love, family, children, friends, helping others Smiley
You can't live in the same time in 2 houses or drive 2 cars anyway Smiley
I think Bill Gates and others realize this long time ago.

Medical standard in this area is very low, people (specially from countryside) don't trust doctors and hospitals and I'm afraid that this countries can't win this battle alone, without support from international community.
Ebola is very dangerous virus and if we don't stop the spread of Ebola Virus Disease now, whole world can be affected very soon.

They made huge mistake once in Libya and couldn't afford another mistake now.
At least they learned something from their previous mistake.
Day by day Libya is going to the chaos, following bad examples of Syria and Iraq.
I think other embassies will follow Americans and evacuate soon.

I think the US power in the area is decreasing, Iran, Iraq and now Libya.
Which ones do you think will be evacuated?


All this area falling in political chaos and this is very bad news, not just for USA but whole world, and specially for local people living there.
I'm afraid that not just this 3 countries you mentioned above but some other may follow Libya's example soon (Egypt for example, Jordan etc) so whole region can explode.
It seems that question is not any more if but when.

11200  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you think Satoshi will ever spend his bitcoins? on: July 27, 2014, 07:08:20 PM
Satoshi cashing out some Bitcoins!!!

Quote
http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/2bu43g/who_mined_the_bitcoin_blocks_in_the_first_three/
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=712502.0

The only people I know for sure mining a significant number of bitcoins blocks in the first three weeks were Satoshi and Hal Finney. Is it common knowledge by now that we know who the first early miners were?
I ask because someone who mined blocks between January 29 and February 7, 2009 has been cashing them out over the past nine months. I'm curious how large the list of likely suspects is.
** EDIT ** I have an article pending on 'Let's Talk Bitcoin' which includes all of the raw data. However, here is just one example of what I'm referring to.
https://blockchain.info/address/15coobWGLz5rTPPLwMqDrC848g5rSqgXX1
https://blockchain.info/address/1CgrbzKje66Pcz1egaAnhr7qEGfdk9atS2
https://blockchain.info/address/1KiCeqdXxzTYeq1dDUi6B1265cqFwsihzm
https://blockchain.info/address/14pDPbeBCCn4CoNKc7YZJnJSWnqfoxf1XF
Mined January 30, 2009 then February 4, 2009, then February 6, 2009, then February 7, 2009.
For those who do not know, the very first bitcoin block ever was mined on January 3, 2009
https://blockchain.info/block/000000000019d6689c085ae165831e934ff763ae46a2a6c172b3f1b60a8ce26f
The second one wasn't mined until 6 days later on January 9, 2009:
https://blockchain.info/block/00000000839a8e6886ab5951d76f411475428afc90947ee320161bbf18eb6048
So, any blocks from January 30th are absurdly early in this history of the blockchain and only a handful of people could be responsible for this!
These begin with block #2400!!
All spent/transferred within minutes on February 6, 2014!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And these aren't the only very, very, very, early bitcoin blocks which have been redeemed. There have been a series of them, which is included in the data when the article gets published.


So now we know that the million Bitcoin is not lost and the guy still have control of the wallet, the next thing we need to know is if he will be selling some of that million and how, when and to where otherwise to whom (we might know who is satoshi at the end). 

i guess he saw the end of bitcoin bubble is very close now, last chance to sell better than nothing

Well, this is really very interesting info, thank you for sharing.
I hope that this is not sight that Satoshi think that now is time to sell Bitcoin and maybe create something new.
If this info is 100 % correct than answer to the topic question is yes.
